So last month did not work. I'm sure I made that very clear in the previous post. But now on to the next step.
I actually had an x-ray yesterday to see if my tubes were open. Let me tell you, it was painful! Apparently getting a catheter past the cervix is not that easy to do. It took a few attempts and I had some of the worst cramps I have ever had. After the catheter was in place, a balloon was inflated and the dye was injected.
The dye followed through my tubes and out the end just like normal. The one thing Dr. B. was concerned about was how the dye pooled outside the left tube and that it didn't disperse like it should. My left tube is also a little thinner then it should be. Dr. B. said it shouldn't be causing any big problems being that it is still open but he wants to focus more on the right side.
I'm not 100% sure what that is going to mean. But we have another ultra sound appointment on Thursday so we will get more information then. This could turn out to be very very expensive!
On another note...I still have not told my parents about us not being able to get pregnant. I know I should and I want to. I just don't know how. After all, we have been trying for so long and haven't even told them we were trying. I keep chickening out! I will. I will. I will. I just don't want them to worry.

Oh Rochelle.... this just breaks my heart. You deserve to be a mommy more than anyone I know. It's just not fair.
I will NEVER stop praying for you guys.... I've known quite a few women with even more challenges in the fertility department than you that still got pregnant. I still 100% believe with all my heart that it WILL happen for you.
I'm here if you ever want a shoulder to cry on. (((HUGS)))
Go ahead and tell your mom. I wouldn't be surprised if she already knows. :) Don't worry.
