March 2018 TTC & 2ww thread

Hey ladies! I'm so sorry af arrived! Don't give up though, I'm sure it'll happen.

My HSG went great! I hardly had any pain and just some light cramping and light spotting. Doc said tubes are clear! Next step is the SHG which is where they put saline in your uterus to check for fibroids and pollops--- that's next Thursday.

I got another test result back tonight and it's my first "abnormal" result. My testosterone is sky high like I think it was close to the 60's which is high for a woman. Hmmmm... [emoji848]

Star that's fantastic the hsg went well and tubes are clear [emoji3] Regarding the testosterone result, did your doc say whether it was cause for concern and/or whether it could be causing fertility/cycle issues?

Oh wow, emshe. I had no idea you had been through so much!! I'm so sorry :( I hope like Pbn said you finally get your BFP this cycle and I can understand that you feel like you have to be thinking ahead about when it's time to say enough. The emotional burden we carry in this whole process of swaying, hoping, TTC-ing, BFNs, loss, etc. is so intense and draining, and yet it's so hard to let go when we want another baby so much. You can always vent here! Heck, I've certainly done enough of it LOL! I tried to stay away from this site initially after this last loss, but I feel so much support & love from all of you (more than I'm getting from various family members right now!) and it's helping me more to stay connected! I also ovulate without Clomid and have a good ovarian reserve and yet my doc still thought I could benefit from it due to short LP/ low-normal progesterone. He says even if you ovulate regularly, Clomid can help produce a "better" ovulation which ups the chances of conception. So I agree with Pbn about continuing to take it! Hopefully having it in your system now will help you respond better this cycle!!

Star that's great! I think the SHG is what I'm supposed to have done in a few weeks from now so please let me know how it goes for you!!

Thanks so much for your understanding, you really do help. I wish none of us had experienced what we have. But this sure is a lovely place to get help, in every way. THANKYOU to each of you, I know I appreciate it always.

I’m nervous. I have to EAT to get my weight under control & that’s going to alter my sway. I know I have so many elements going for me with the Clomid, metformin, exercise, coffee, alcohol (although I haven’t done alcohol in tww & I haven’t exercised in 3 days...) & hubby doing ole, & the timing things we do but it just feels like I will undermine it somehow. But then I have probably already diminished my chances of falling by depleting myself so much. I think so much my head should explode!

I eat so much, but because I have been sugar free & pretty much grain free for years I don’t think I’ve hit high enough calories, despite having a serve of rice potatoes & cruskits every day with each meal. My veggie intake is big of all the free stuff. I’ve done the serve of yoghurt & chicken daily, and had eggs, salmon, the wholeWay through. Upped fats but The weight just hasn’t stopped coming off. Has anyone else struggled with this?

Any tips and suggestions.

I have eaten pretty bad today. I actually had a cream bun, (haven’t had one of those since I was a kid- Outrageously good OMG), corn chips, a biscuit & ill have some chips/crisps later) I know I need to do it but I don’t want to sway too far the other way. I guess that’s why I’m thinking unhealthy food as they’re less nutritious but will make me put weight back on!? Agh, so lost right now with what to do.

Essay length post, sorry ladies

Have you thought about getting an early scan in a couple of weeks? I was going to do that last time, I found one on groupon for £23!
Kikurose, did you maybe ovulate on cd 11?
Thanks girlsway, how are you doing? When did you get your bfp and can you remember how dark it was? I'm just worried as last time it was much darker and ended in a mc anyway. Glad you are still popping into this board [emoji3]

Mine was sooo light on IC for literally a week! Did darken slightly on frer!

Well looks like it was a chemical. I'm so confused! This morning my frer is almost stark white, just the tiniest hint of a line. But weirdly my cheapie is darker. I'm trusting the frer though. So sad [emoji17]

Oh mummy this is shit!!!! How effing confusing is that??!! All I can say is hang in there still, different tests have different sensitivities so who's to know which is right [emoji17] I agree with not getting your hopes up simply because in my experience I wouldn't be, BUT that's not to say that maybe things are just fine. You clearly have a fertilised egg that has implanted, whether the body is rejecting it or not cannot be determined by hpts as there simply is too much allowance for variance, especially at this early stage. I find it completely and utterly ridiculous you cannot access bw requests for betas [emoji34] especially with your history!!!! Surely there is grounds for it!!?? Why wont they just bloody well organise them on request?!!!
