Well... I've finally gotten a bit of an idea what's happening. I can have another appt with my gyno to get clomid with monitoring (as opposed to none which I'm currently having)... But I'm not feeling like it's working with him as I don't fully trust he knows what's happening with me, or has faith in my opinion (i.e. that I DIDN'T ovulate this month).
Otherwise, I can wait for publicly funded treatment.. I have to see if I score high enough to get it first, if not then I am waiting til clomiphene treatment has "failed" then I "may" be able to get on the waiting list.
Here comes the hardest part...The waiting list is 12-15 months. This means at worst, I'll be trying for 32 months before I can look at further treatment.
Clomiphene ovulation induction is $200 per cycle at the fertility services, including scans (which I need due to my history with it)... I can JUST only just afford that....
Mum's suggested that my concerns about how long it's taking in hindsight isn't a big problem.. And that I should possibly just wait it out until I get to the other end of the waiting list. I get that, but I ideally had wanted to start a degree at the end of next year if I wasn't pregnant, rather than just work in early childhood which though I'll enjoy somewhat, I just don't want to do at this stage.....
I feel completely lost to be honest. I think maybe I should try clomid ovulation induction for up to 3 months, and then give up, but I think I'll have the next two cycles off, then see how it goes after that.
So I guess, for now, I am signing off this thread. I don't think I can get pregnant by myself, and I think it's time to start spending my time in more worthwhile threads (not that this isn't, just that it makes me feel worse by focusing on it!) such as weight loss and things like that. Thanks everyone for your amazing support, and I will be back once I have more of an idea what is happening.... but until then, I do need to go and just deal with what is happening. Thanks guys *hugs* and good luck Kelly and Erin
