Thanks, Pbn. If I'm remembering it right (it's hard to keep everyone's stories on here straight sometimes!), you've had some pretty rough experiences with pregnancy/pregnancy loss? I'm trying to stay positive & think whatever happens, happens and we'll just go from there. We get pregnant so easily & our boys were conceived on the first try with no miscarriages up until now! So we've already been very lucky and blessed. If this one isn't meant to be - we'll grieve, move on and try again.

I guess the main thing that is frustrating is that I've always believed that my progesterone was low. I've always had short cycles (25 days or less), short LPs (usually 10 days) and very low BBTs. I thought doing the sway diet - especially as I was mostly doing the PCOS version - would help maybe correct that a bit, but it seems to have changed nothing. I even have been on Synthroid for several months to improve my TSH levels (which were just on the higher end of the normal range - OBGYN wanted them lower for pregnancy), which have improved, and I thought that would raise my BBTs, but nope!! It just seems my body is determined to be consistent and not change things, and for the most part that's fine as it has kept me pretty fertile! BUT I think there are some hormonal things that are going on that need to be corrected and I don't know how! If this one doesn't stick, I'm thinking about seeing how quickly I can get into an RE to see if they could give me some better answers, especially on my progesterone levels.

Sigh. How are YOU feeling though?! :)

Oh and about what the doc said about the prog... He said he could start me on prog suppositories and that I should talk to them about it when I go in tomorrow for my blood draw. But yea... I don't know if that would just be delaying the inevitable.

Hello Ladies! So sorry I haven't been on in so long, I don't know what the issue is. My phone will not let me log in. When I click the link or bookmark for Genderdreaming, a screen comes up that says the link is currently unavailable. It says that the site may be temporarily down or that it may have permanently moved to a new address. It has been saying that for weeks. Tonight I am logging in from a friend's computer so I may not be on for quite a while again after this. I just wanted to update on baby. My little bean is 8 and a half weeks now and all of my symptoms slowly vanished. Absolutely nothing. My doctor had me come in today to see if I had a possible missed m/c, but baby looks great, and I cried hearing that beautiful little heartbeat! Unfortunately I have no way to share my ultrasound picture with you all until I get my phone to log me in again. I hope everyone is doing well, and I cannot wait to hear how you all are doing when I can start checking in regularly again. Baby dust to you all!

Samish I wish you all the best! I have to say last Monday was also 5dpo ovulation and I felt slight pinching on the right side of my ovary usually I only get that for ovulation it wasn't as bad till 6-7dpo it was on and off and I had slight back pains accompanied with them.. I'm now 12 dpo and still feel that red side pinching! I don't want to go overboard with symptom spotting I never get that and ever since last week I've got that on and off cramp/ pinching on the right side.. my boobs have been soooo tingly and sore. I did a test on Monday it was a BFN so I'm guessing AF is coming but I have NEVER experienced those symptoms when AF is coming..
when is AF suppose to be coming for you? I'm due Saturday

Desi can you post a pic and what day of usual 3 pos opks is this? 1st or 2nd? I've not heard of atomic advising anyone to do 3 bds in one night? My understanding was for the three attempts you aim for PM of pos opk, then AM and PM of following morning? I'd aim for this as it will give you three attempts for sure if you dont usually o until 2 days after first pos opk and at least two attempts if you happen to o day after (even though you usually get 3 days of pos opks, this would be the cycle you only get one or two if you wait [emoji23])

Abc yes I had three losses last year but just look at me now [emoji3] 19w today!

In regards to the prog suppositories, it couldn't hurt to start them even until you get your second betas? If they've doubled then fantastic but if not you could stop taking??

Hi ttcblue! Great to hear all is well with you and bub! Maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling tapatalk?

Pbn3 - 19 weeks, wow! Almost halfway there!! I forget - are you finding out baby's gender?

I'll talk to doc about the suppositories... I'm hoping while I'm there tomorrow getting blood drawn I can ask either my doctor or his medical assistant more about this whole thing and what they think is going on.

TtcBlue - wow so exciting!!! I love seeing the little beans on ultrasound... So fun! :)

Hey everyone! I'm still trying to catch up on the thread but I have a semi-stupid question.. have any of you used the ramzi theory and it wrong? I did it with my ultrasound from today and I got boy.. I'm curious about how accurate it really is! I'm attaching my ultrasound below :) https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170823/40fe70676305c07bb5e44757ad61332c.jpg

Mtolbert - like Pbn said I think it's pretty much been debunked... That said, isn't the placenta the bright/thicker looking area near the sac? To me that part in your picture looks like it's more on the upper right side of the photo, which according to Ramzi would be girl - I think. The sac is definitely on the left but Ramzi goes by where the placenta is - and I think yours is on the right in this photo.

But probably not worth putting too much stock into at this point. Fun to see your little bean though!!! Exciting!

Pbn I was team green last time too! The only thing I hated was the poor choice of neutral clothes! They all seemed to be white or beige :/ and not that much to choose from either. I'm not going to test. I just want to see how long my l.p. is this month as it was only 9 days last month.
I'm still not feeling 100% so we have hardly bd this month at all and my diet has been full of crap lol

Finished Clomid last night. Wow. I'm not sure if it's bc it's my first cycle after my miscarrage or what but this round has hit me like a ton of bricks. I am getting mood swings lime crazy. I'm super angry at most things and then want to cry at other times. I don't remember this the last time I took it. The frustrating thing ... is that I don't even feel confident that this cycle Will work. To know that I'll have to endure another month of this torture is hard. Ugh
Going for my first ultrasound tomorow to see how many folicales are growing and what my uterine lining thickness is.
I'll be cd10. I am hoping to ovulate like the last round of Clomid on day 15 or before.

Uggh I feel like my emotions are just all over the place right now. After what Atomic told me yesterday about my blood results I feel like I'm expecting to start bleeding/miscarrying any moment now.... I feel like every twinge and cramp is a sign things are going south. I go back and forth between having a calm, positive attitude to being totally bummed out and depressed. My hormone levels may be low according to the blood tests but I sure feel like a hormonal hot mess right now! I just want to know what's going on. Thankfully I'll go this afternoon to get another blood test and should get the results tomorrow morning.

Thanks, Max. I go today & will get results tomorrow. I think I remember that you had low progesterone issues in your past pregnancies. Do you remember how low your numbers were? I was at a 9 on Monday @ 4 weeks. Atomic thinks that number means it's not a viable pregnancy.

Yes, I had low progesterone with both of my pregnancies with DD's. I just went back and looked - my 23 day beta showed progesterone to be 7.4 with DD1! They put me on prometrium. I think I was so excited to be pregnant and was blissfully ignorant because I don't remember stressing about it, but today that would certainly freak me out. They put me on meds with DD2 right when I got a positive pregnancy test. That said, my beta's were also very high with both.

With this pregnancy, my beta at 14dpo was 21, but progesterone was high. So it was kind of backwards....beta number was very low, but progesterone was high. My hcg was doubling every 32 hours.

I saw your post on having the progesterone. It's such a personal thing...what are you leaning towards?

ABC.2606
August 23rd, 2017, 12:58 PM
How odd that you're numbers kinda flipped! That's great about the progesterone though. Were you supplementing with prog before you got pregnant this time?

I don't know if I'll do the progesterone - I think I'll wait to see what tomorrow's results are before deciding. If both the hcg and progesterone don't look good I may just wait and let things play out. If the pregnancy is not viable than I don't want to prolong it more than necessary. If hcg has shot up then maybe it's worth trying it.

I feel like every twinge and cramp is a sign things are going south. I go back and forth between having a calm, positive attitude to being totally bummed out and depressed. My hormone levels may be low according to the blood tests but I sure feel like a hormonal hot mess right now! I just want to know what's going on. Thankfully I'll go this afternoon to get another blood test and should get the results tomorrow morning.

And I realize many of you ladies on here have gone through so much pain and heartache in terms of TTC, pregnancy loss, etc - I don't know how you all do it!! I admire your strength!!!
Oh ABC I hate that you are having to go through that I will be saying a prayer for you, It is the worst feeling to know that a mc could be coming I knew mine was coming, but it took over a week for it to happen, longest week of my life. I hope everything is ok.

Every start of a cycle is met with new emotions. CD3 after our 3rd attempt and the emotion this cycle is angry. I'm not holding anything back, nor is he...it took 5 months with #2 (boy sway attempt), and I was hoping for faster this time. It's like I have it in my head that if we got pregnant within that first 3 months, that it would definitely be a boy, but now that I'm passed that, I'm quickly losing faith that I'll ever have a boy. Also, it was a spur of the moment decision to go ahead for the 3rd, but now I'm losing the excitement that brought on and back to questioning if it's worth it.

Thanks Mommy and Samish. I'm at the gym right now for the first time in a week. Not doing as long or as intense a workout as I had been doing before bfp but it feels nice to get some endorphins going. I hope it will help a little with my anxiety :)

Hi rabbit, we must have swayed around the same time last time! I know how frustrating it is. This is my 6th month ttc (4th properly trying) and with all 5 of my girls it happened the 1st or 2nd month. Now Dh may not even have any swimmers due to test replacement. It's an emotional rollercoaster! To think some people get drunk, roll over and boom!! Pregnant lol

Desi - I know, it's terrible just waiting and not knowing!! I haven't had a miscarriage before but I had spotting with my first son between like weeks 5-7 and we didn't know how things would turn out then either. Thankfully it stopped and everything turned out great the rest of the pregnancy. I had bleeding early into my 3rd tri w/ my 2nd son and that was terrifying too (it was off and on for 4 weeks!!). Both those pregnancies turned out fine but it can just be so scary! And now this one I have no idea what's going on!!

Maxim - yea I think so too. When my doctor calls tomorrow to tell me the results of today's test I'm going to ask him what he really thinks I should do. I found out when I went to get blood drawn today that he already sent the prescription to my pharmacy, so it's there if I want it.

Rabbitmama - I know how you feel! I got pregnant on the 2nd try this time & so I was immediately convinced it's another boy! I got pregnant on the 1st try with my first two but I was so sure I'd be way less fertile this time b/c of swaying and that it would take awhile. However, we don't know if this one will stick so we'll see. But I think we all know of lots of women who got pregnant super quickly and had girls and women who took a long time and had boys so try not to get too discouraged! I have a good friend who tried I believe for well over a year and then finally fell pregnant with a perfect little man!

Samish - FWIW I had a lot of very creamy white discharge very very soon after getting pregnant with both my boys... So if you are pregnant, that could be the cause!

Mommy how many DPO are you now? Excited for you to start testing!!!

Babybeau - HA... "Get drunk, roll over and boom!" Love it.

That's a super positive opk desi! Fingers crossed this is your month. Hope I haven't missed anyone, there had been loads to catch up on!!
I'm feeling a bit fed up, cd 31 now and I thought I'd ovulated two days ago but still no temp rise and that's unusual for me. My cycles are usually 27 days so no idea what's happening. Could the chemical last month stop me ovulating? I really hope not as DH is completely on board ttc for the first time in months!!

Wowzer this thread has moved quickly in the past couple of days. I shall deffo have to catch up tonight when the boys are in bed.

Question about when I should bd, I'm on cd15 and totally got an unexpected +OPK today (I normally have long cycles) we dtd on cd12 & cd13 and hubby was going to abstain until cd20 (last month that when I got +OPK)

My question is do we dtd again or not? Last month we dtd on same day as +OPK and didn't get pregnant.

On another note I joined weight watchers and lost 7lbs this week...so happy right now :D

I would love a little girl but I have done different ways of swaying previously and it has never worked the only thing we hadn't done was abstain. We would be happy and gender but would love pink...but our babies choose us I guess.

Hi max, no I've never had any meds, I spoke to the doctor about it but she said they wouldn't do any tests etc as I already have two children and she thinks it is down to my age that I'm not conceiving as quick. I may go back again next month though if still no luck.
Happylea, I think you should bd! What will be will be. And well done for the fab weight loss!

Oh my gosh - I woke up today with the most killer headache!!! I don't know if it's because of caffeine withdrawal since I've cut back so much since BFP or if it's something related to pregnancy! Have any of you had this in early pregnancy, or even as a miscarriage sign? I have basically no other pregnancy symptoms right now, which is adding to my thinking that this pregnancy is not going right. I know it's early still (4.5 weeks) but with my 2nd son, by this time I was SO sick already!

Doctor hasn't called yet :( I may call in a few hours to see if they have the results back yet.

Mummy that doesn't seem right that they wouldn't do testing or meds if you've been trying for a year! Are you in the UK? In the US I believe that if you're over 35, they start testing after 6 months of trying.

With this pregnancy, my beta at 14dpo was 21, but progesterone was high. So it was kind of backwards....beta number was very low, but progesterone was high. My hcg was doubling every 32 hours.


Max clomid can create very high/healthy progesterone levels. My doctor told me it is from having a very healthy/strong ovulation...which it should be if its medically induced

Hi everyone. I am back on swaying again. I was ttc back in April but that cycle was a wreck due to moving and lack of sleep and stress. And we had lots of things happened after that so didn't ttc. Now everything is back to normal so I'm back on again. It looks like many of you got pos hpt (yayyy so awesome!). Congratulations and hope you guys will all have smooth pregnancies.

Pbn: It is very nice to see that you still sticks around to help us on our ttc journey.

ABC: i'm so sorry to hear about your test. I hope that you will get good results today. Fx!

ABC.2606
August 24th, 2017, 03:13 PM
Well my hope is quickly falling.... I haven't heard from the doctor and unless they just don't have the results yet (seems unlikely), I'm guessing it's bad news. I called and left them a message asking about the results 2 hours ago and they are usually pretty quick in calling back. If the numbers were good, I'm thinking the medical assistant (who has called me with results before) would have called. My guess is the doctor wants to call me himself since it's not good but hasn't had the time yet.

And I didn't mention this earlier but I did another FRER today and the line was a little lighter that I've seen it. I *know* that's not scientific but it doesn't seem good. And I feel like I'm having cramps. That may just be stress-related (I definitely have stress-related stomach issues going on right now too), but I just have a growing bad feeling now. Mainly - I really just want to KNOW.

Welcome, Shinay! Are you going to start ttc-ing this month? Going for blue? We have lots of blue dust on this board we can send your way :)

ABC: dont give up yet till you see the results. Sorry i cant offer much help since i'm ttc for my first. Please let us know as soon as you get your results. I pray that you dont have to go through the heartbreak, but if it happens, we are here to support you in any possible way. Hang in there!

I am going for blue, and I am debating whether I should try this month or next. Since I stopped ttc in April, I still maintain taking prenatal. My diet has always been blue friendly so i think I am okay with that. But DH always eats very little and on the skinny side, so if we ttc this month, I only have a week to make him eat more (I think I'm gonna O next week). So if I wait for one more month, I might have more time to make DH consume more food and nutrients. And also he wanna start workout next month so that might also help with blue sway. Not sure if I should give it a go this month or give us some more time to make our conditions even stronger.

Shinay - I agree with mummy I don't think DH's condition is going to make that much difference, but I don't know how the blue sways on here are supposed to work so maybe check with Atomic. Are you going to use Pre-Seed? I used that when we conceived our first little blue bundle! I also ate a LOT of cereal when we got preggo with him!!! :) All those good extra vitamins (that I guess are actually just sprayed on the cereal - yum!)

Shinay hello!!!!!!! [emoji847][emoji847][emoji847] so good to see you back!! I held onto your chart for ages before giving up and removing the link but thought of you alot [emoji173] can you post another link to you chart? I'll be back in a couple hours with more to say [emoji6][emoji3]

Mummy2boys are you still doing opks? Gosh what a pain in the butt cycle this is turning out to be!!!

Abc hope you hear something in the next hour and I'd also be ringing back! If your hpt looks lighter at this stage then I would prepare to hear bad news (hugs) Hpts are not good for seeing pregnancy progression initially in the early days of testing but by now there should be an easy line progression at 17dpo from your earlier ones. Do you have a pic with them all together?

Mommy2apples every morning I wake I work out how many more sleeps till the 31st! [emoji23] like its going to go from 10 sleeps to 1 overnight [emoji23] well its 6 more by my calculation [emoji6]

Mummy2boys are you going to still try this cycle or do you think its worth a try dropping temping, opks for a week or so and just bd every 3 or 4 days. Maybe a more relaxed approach will speed things up whether o or af? Try taking a temp in a weeks time or something to see if its in post o range yet?

Thanks pbn. If dh is right like he always is I probably didn't conceive anyways. He was so smug about it too. When you going to learn I'm always right? I'm like are you sure you didn't just say that to ruin my day? Yea cause I like ruining your day sarcastically. He doesn't even get why that would ruin my day. I just want to cry now. Going to get my workout in and cry.

Pbn: aww how sweet of you! Here is my chart link https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/6a8e52 I only mark bd without protection. Other times, we use pull-out method (tmi, sorry) since i originally plan to ttc next cycle. But since my cycle is so long (34 to 38 days), it's quite dreadful to wait a whole month. I'm too impatient! hahaha

Doc called - hcg went from 66 to 92. 50% increase, it should have been at least 60%. He didn't check the progesterone again. Wants me to come in for another draw on Monday.

He said all we can do right now is wait & watch. He said it's leaning towards this not being a viable pregnancy but he can't say for sure yet - since he's seen unexpected things happen.

So basically - I still don't know where this is heading :(

Hugs abc. I went through that with my last angel baby. It lingered on from May to July before they knew a definitive answer, and then I opted for my body to miscarry natural. My body is dumb and wouldn't so by September I gave into a dnc. I was so hopeful with that baby just wanted to give it a chance!
I pray the outcome is completely different for you and this pregnancy is viable!

Thanks shinay! He was so clueless!

Thanks happy:) he's only been taking it 2 weeks so haven't even had an attempt with him on it. Although it takes 72 days for sperm production so I could be looking at Nov/Dec time before any chance of bfp

Pbn I had spotting the morning of AF last month and for 2 days before AF the previous cycle but never before. In had it very very light last night and the same today. I'm just waiting for AF cos my back is still sore, mostly when I walk. Is spotting normal with temp still being high? I keep thinking it's gonna drop like a stone in the morning:/

Sorry abc. I've been through chemical pregnancies twice before and they hurt. Hoping you get answers soon.

As for me.. it's cd10 for me today. Had my first apt this morning at my fertility clinic and I have no follicles growing. So after a terrible experience of a second trimester miscarrage and then months of waiting to finally get my period then to go on a round of Clomid which was emotionally difficult...
I prob won't even get a chance this cycle. I balled at the clinic today. I've never felt so alone before in my life.

Dr said to come back in 2 days and if no eggs growing we might just cancel the cycle and start provera (period inducing pill) again.

Great times over here.

Robin, I'm so sorry you are being put through all of this! It's so unfair! I sure hope that a couple of days is all that is needed for there to be any follicles.

Is there any talk of switching medication? It sounds like you may not have responded to the Clomid. I would definitely ask about developing a new protocol.

I just want to give you a great big hug!

https://lmtm.lilypie.com/kIlmm5.png (https://lilypie.com)They play it very conservative here. I asked today about uping the Clomid next cycle but she said no to that. They said that most women who have late miscrarrages or stillbirths experience a later cycle or antiovilitory cycle the first one after. They seem to think I'll grow between now and the next visit.
All I know is I actually don't require Clomid.. my cycles are always 29 days with ovulation at 14dpo. Prob why they hesitate to up my dosage etc.

Sorry Babybeau :( Thinking of you.

So sadly I think I'm now officially miscarrying. I'm spotting increasing amounts of pink/red & am increasingly cramping. I think this is it :( I started progesterone capsules yesterday but either it was too late or it wouldn't have helped anyways. Given my hcg numbers my guess is it wouldn't have mattered no matter what.

Thank you friends. I really appreciate you all and this space for the support and encouragement.

My doctor is the doc on call this weekend. I'm wondering if I should call him tomorrow and tell him what's going on? Do I need to be "checked out" after a miscarriage this early? There is still no big gush or flow but the bleeding and cramping have become more consistent now. I guess as it's before 5 weeks it's technically a chemical? Which is weird as I feel like I've already known about the pregnancy for weeks now with all the stress and emotions of just the past week :(

Pbn3
August 27th, 2017, 12:56 AM
Abc no need to go to your doc. It should be like a normal or heavy period initially but you may experience more/stronger cramps than normal. You've stopped the progesterone capsules now right? Big hugs xxoo

I'll take another test in a couple of days. Given how low my hcg was on Wednesday my guess is it won't take very long to get back to zero. I'm probably still going to try to see my doctor bc I am concerned about my short LP/ low progesterone. I don't know if that factored into this loss or not but I don't want to try again until I've talked to him about it.

Definitely talk to him. Even if it's just to put your mind at ease.
I never got any tests or anything after mine. I still think it may have been the fact I was given the wrong medication at 6 weeks, but at the same time I just had a feeling something wasn't right as soon as I got that bfp.
Its hard looking at those bfps knowing you are no longer pregnant but it's all i had to go on. I had to have scans to see if everything was 'gone' as well.

If it's taking care of it then I guess not. My miscarriage was 4.5 weeks with my last angel and it lingered. My body didn't bleed as well as it should've. As long as you don't start feeling faint and blacking out and filling 2-3 pads within 2 hours you should be okay.

I had to have scans to see if everything was 'gone' as well.That's exactly how I felt a few days after the first BFP - like something just wasn't right. That's mainly why I had called the doctor last Monday and had the beta done. So when the numbers came back not great, that plus my gut feeling that something was wrong just pretty much convinced me that this was coming.

Hi ABC, hope you are doing okay. Just wanted to share my experiences from last month as it was similar to what's happening with you. I got a positive test on 14dpo and then started spotting and I knew something wasn't right when my tests didn't get darker. I started bleeding properly about a week later and tests went negative quickly. The doctors and early pregnancy unit wouldn't see me and just said to look out for very heavy bleeding/pain. It was just like a period really but a bit heavier. I was glad in a way when the bleeding started properly as the limbo feeling was over and I'd had a feeling everything wasn't right.
I hope you are feeling okay and getting as much rest as possible. Thinking of you x
Robin, that's great news, Yey [emoji106]
As for me, I got another positive opk so think my body has tried to ovulate again, will find out in a couple of days if my temp goes up. Will be glad for this crazy cycle to end!

Yup, Mummy - that's very similar to what I just experienced. It's interesting that some of our experiences with this are so similar. But yea I just knew something was wrong at the beginning and the lines seemed to be getting darker so slowly and then the blood tests last week just kinda confirmed my feeling. I do feel a little relieved that I'm no longer in limbo although I've cried a number of times today. DH has been amazing today - he basically got the boys out of the house most of the day and took care of them so that I could just be alone and rest and grieve.

I want to start working out again as I think it will help pick me up a bit emotionally but I know my body still needs more rest. The bleeding is slowing already. It was basically like a regular period for me, maybe a little heavier - probably not as heavy as some chemicals since I'm guessing with the super low progesterone my lining was not real thick.

I'm glad you are likely about to ovulate again, Mummy!!!

ABC: I am so sorry for what you are going through. I cant imagine how you are feeling right now. Take it easy and have lots of rest. Big big hugs for you.

Robin: It is such awesome news. From now on, only good news and smooth journey for you. When will you check back in with the doctor?

Pbn: I checked with atomic. She thinks we should wait for now. I will see how DH's health is next month and decide on ttc later. I have such high baby fever and really wish we could ttc now. But one month will go by quickly and if it really helps our sway, it will be worth waiting.

Sounds like a good plan, Shinay! I know that waiting can be hard when you're anxious to start ttc! We're probably going to have to wait a full month too before trying again as my husband has a work trip coming up & he will likely be gone during my next ovulation. Probably for the best anyways as it'll give my body & emotions a little more time to heal.

Happylea hang in there!! Testing time will be here soon!

Hi everyone, how are we all doing? Hope you are ok ABC.
Not too long to wait till testing time happy and mommy! Fingers crossed. You are being very patient shinay, sounds like a good plan though.
I wondered if anyone who knows anything about charts would have a look at mine? FF has given me crosshairs but I don't think I've ovulated, at least not on the day it says. This is one long cycle, I'm surprised how much my body has been affected. I've stopped using opks as I've run out but am still temping as want to know when my period is likely to arrive..

Mummy2boys maybe cd35 after this mornings somewhat temp rise?? That's only a guess as would coincide with your pos opk cd33 but wont know for sure without a few more days temps (possibly more if not a clear shift) how is cm looking? Does it look post o?

Shinay happy to hear you have a plan! But bummed your skipping a cycle [emoji13] but can totally understand wanting to improve your chances [emoji170] we'll be here to cheer you on! So will you still do opks and temp this cycle so we can see when you o just for curiosity sake?

Happylea excited for your testing coming up!!! What dpo will you test?

Here in Canada they don't cover fertility meds either. Tgere is a wait list for assistance that takes over 3 years and that's if you qualify.
Or do you mean you can't get ANY drugs until y ouve been ttc for 2 years?

Hi Robin it's the hormone blood test - fsh LH etc. I got the day 21 progesterone test done but they said I'm too late now and will have to wait til cd3 next cycle. Typical. I'm not having much luck with anything lately.
Apparently they won't offer men any drugs at all until the 2year mark. I really can't afford to keep buying hcg for Dh. Esp as we don't even know if it's working (he won't ask his Dr for a SA)
Pbn I'm not hopeful. If it takes 72 days for spermatogenisis that would be November time and that's if the process even started as soon as he took the hcg :(

Exactly. He thinks if he tells his Dr we are ttc she will think there is nothing wrong with him and stop his meds! (He gets antidepressants and painkillers) he has said he will speak to the urologist at the hospital on 28th of Sept but I don't know if he will actually ask for one (SA):/

Georgia_Peach
August 29th, 2017, 08:21 AM
Sorry babybeau. That seems weird. I hope you get the answers you need soon! I'm not understanding why he can't have the SA.?

Afm I went to my Dr today and my follicale has grown to 17mm. The same size as last time I triggered and conceived my daughter. I am awaiting my blood tests to confirm LH serge and then I'll use my trigger shot to drop the egg. I am hoping the numbers reveal today bc they want me to go in again tomorow if it's not today.

Mummy: I am very impatient and eager to jump on DH and ttc :wink:, but i dont wanna have regrets later. Long cycle sucks! It happened to me in April. I hope you will know soon. Maybe temp for another or two would show your O. Fx!

Pbn: yeah i'm bummed too. I was hoping atomic would say "nahh Dh health doesnt matter. you could go ahead with ttc" I wanted to tempt & monitor my O as well, but I left my thermometer at another place. Dh helped me take it back today. I will temp tmr to see if i have O. Felt some light cramps yesterday and today. I dont wanna waste OPKs since I always go crazy testing all the times when ttc so i'm saving them up for next month lol

August 29th, 2017, 06:35 PM
Thanks Pbn and Shinay - I'm feeling OK. I bought some new OPKs today and doing so somehow made me feel a little better and a little worse at the same time :) I'm already tired of the bleeding but I know my body is doing what it needs to. I'm anxious to start exercising again and I probably could but I'm trying to be careful and give myself enough physical healing time and let the bleeding ease a bit more. Pbn - I don't think we'll be able to try this next cycle as my DH is leaving town next week for a work trip and will be gone 10 days... And my guess is that I'll ovulate again while he's gone. Maybe not - maybe w/ the miscarriage things will be delayed, but knowing how my body works I'm guessing it will return to it's fertile state very quickly. And I have very short cycles - only 24 days. I have an appt w/ my OBGYN in two weeks and that'll be good - I think he may run some tests on my hormone levels as I have a few concerns (w/ my progesterone in particular). So - just trying to move on, ready to try again soon but it may have to wait several weeks still.

Robin - that sounds awesome!!! I'm not familiar w/ the process you're going through and trigger shots and all that but from what you said it sounds positive :) My fingers are crossed for you!!!

Babybeau - I'm sorry - that sounds frustrating. Def sounds like he should get a SA though if you can talk him into it!

Thanks everyone! I'm going back now and re reading my sway and looking back at what I ate exactly the week I ovulated with my last pregnancy. I'm going to try and recreate as best as I can.

As for the trigger.. It's HCG you inject yourself with to trick your body into thinking it's pregnant and release the egg. I'll have to take a preg test everyday after to watch the line fade out then hopefully go back to positive.

Mommy do you ever get implantation spotting? I'm with Shann - keeping my fingers crossed that it's implantation spotting!

Thanks robin, I'll be asking the gp if AF doesn't appear soon.
Sounds really promising for you this month, fx!!
Mommy, I am really hoping like the other ladies said, that this is implantation spotting 🤞

Robin - hoping this month is your month, sounding promising x

Mummy - hope AF starts for you soon x

Mommy - I do hope it's an implantation bleed x

Shann & pbn - I'm 5dpo today, I have never had a positive before 10dpo I would like to wait 5 days but I'm a crazy women when it comes to poas :D

Mommy2apples noooooooooo!!! I also hope its implantation spotting. Just a reminder you'll still need to test even if you believe af has started properly before taking clomid. I'm still refusing to believe the spotting is af related!

Look forward to your testing happylea!!
