Third Time's a Charm...We Hope

Well, time for round 3. Being that Leah's hormone level met (and exceeded) the target goal last month, April finds us taking round 3 of the fertility medicine. There won't be an increase in dosage, as last month's 100 mg dose will maintain the current level.

The next step will be a doctor's appointment later this month....Probably around the 25th. Bloodwork will once again be drawn just to verify that levels still are what they should be. Should we be able to get pregnant this month, it would not show up at that time (it would only be a few days removed from conception), and Leah probably wouldn't know until a week or so after that (unless she picked up on some of the occasional, "not in every case" pregnancy signs). Thinking optimistically, that would mean that the baby would arrive in early January--somewhere around Leah's birthday (How cool would THAT be?!). We could go crazy with this calendar of "what ifs"--the kid would start kindergarten in fall of 2011 and graduate in 2024. But let's not get the cart before the horse.

So that's where things are at for now. I hate to blog about this with so little regularity, but I didn't really think you wanted a "still nothing" report every other day. Hopefully we'll be pregnant soon and things will pick up. Cause there will be a TON to blog about when that happens!! In the meantime, thanks for the thoughts, prayers, and concern!!
