Hi!! I keep wanting to post--but then I forget--then I remember like while in the shower or in bed in the middle of the night when I can't sleep!! lol!1 Anyway I am glad you came out of lurkdom. When I got pg with #3 it was a first shot with Femara BUT I had two cycles of clomid before that--so I wonder how often that is the case. I know this time with ttc--almost a year this time but really longer than that but I have only had my cycles for about 9 mo(I never get ppaf back until 2 years pp when nursing)---I am on the end of month two of femera and I am pretty sure it too is a dud. Unfortunately!! So I too am so discouraged and I too had a m/c at the end of Nov beginning of Dec and it was horrible. I have been doing the trigger shots each month--I will say that it is nice to know you will O but I have yet to have my own lh surge--before getting the surge nor have I had any good ew like I normally do when I o on my own(I also usually get a good lh surge on my own too). My doc keeps saying I am older now--34--and that will effect how the drug works on me. I don't know--I use to think it was the miracle drug but now ... well it is making me make good eggs so that is something. Anyway I just did not want you to think you were alone--in fact many of our situations are similar. I do hope that you have a good cycle--and I don't think the hcg is any "more" than what you are already doing. Oh and another positive of doing the hcg shot is that it is suppose to help increase your progesterone--so that is definitely a nice side effect. I will say that the shot I get is pretty painful--and would be worth it if I could just get pg from it--kwim?
