Dog days of summer

I haven't posted in a while, along with the temperatures outside, I feel like my mission to motherhood is experiencing the dog days of summer. One day after another just keeps ticking off the calendar with no change. I am on day 7 of a Provera induced cycle and I have my hysteroscopy scheduled for Friday afternoon. I am also expecting on Friday that my RE will give me the results of ALL of the other miscarriage testing that they did. When the nurse called to remind me to schedule my hysteroscopy two weeks ago (do people in my situation really forget to schedule these appointments....oh yeah, i forgot i am trying to figure out why i have had two miscarriages in a row!!), sorry, i digress, when she called me, I asked her if any of my other tests results were back. She said that everything that was back looked normal, but she couldn't tell if everything was back and she knew the genetic testing was not back. So I guess that was a pseudo update. I am looking forward to the hysteroscopy and also the ultrasound that they are going to be doing - wondering how those ovaries of mine will be looking after 8 months of metformin now (hoping for reduced signs of PCOS).

On a note unrelated to fertility, but definitely related to my title, our pride and joy, Herbie the beagle, turned three this weekend and in "desperate for children fashion," we threw him a birthday bash. Our friends have to be thinking, Please Lord, give these people some children!! The party was complete with doggie cup cakes and four dog guests (their owners got to come too ;-) )! Picture here - that's me and my excited pooch trying to blow out his candle!




Hopefully this weekend I'll have an exciting post about our next steps!
