Cristina, I think this is a really good idea. After 2 losses and eight months of clomid with no success over the past two years (we’re closing in on the date we conceived the first time two years ago – only about a week to go), I’m coming to terms with the fact that I am having an infertility problem. I guess its why month after month of clomid, I never went back to the doctor. I just knew it would work. An insurance chick said something to me about ‘not covering infertility’ when a small charge appeared on a bill to my house that didn’t get covered, and I almost went through the phone and ripped her face off. That was probably four months ago, though.

I’m struggling with thoughts of what I ‘should’ have done, and everything in my life is so upset right now, so I’m in a pretty good state of confusion. But DH and I are feeling our way along, carefully and painfully.

He’s made a pretty big mess, and we’ve been facing some terrific odds since we got together, but I have a lot of faith. And I still have to deal with this progesterone issue.

So, I think my new plan is to stay off the clomid, at least for the next two months or so, and find another way for the progesterone boost. I’ll check out the supplements you can get at whole foods, I have a number for an herbal store expert. I’m not sure what happens from here. I know I’ve got a little time to think.
