January 2012 Chit Chat Thread for TTC Boy

Hi ladies,

I had an app today with another GP to discuss my situation and recent findings. He believes that I do have a chance at falling pregnant but it is definately lower than pre op. I asked what % and he could not give me a figure but said that it may be a lengthy process for us and just a matter of trying and trying and trying. I am though, at an increased risk of ectopic pregnany :(

He has recommended I seek some legal advice if I want to persue things further. I don't want $$, I just want a baby and for this to never happen to anyone else again. Going to call Legal Aid tomorrow.

I caved and did the last two CBFM tests yesterday and this morning. I am on high. We have thrown timing out the window and have DTD LOTS the last few days. No more supps just folic acid.

TTC5, that must have been a little relief hearing that it is still possible for you to fall pregnant. And seeing as you have been trying and trying for so long, you really must be close. Best of luck for this cycle hun. xx

I found the chemical pregnancy to be just as devastating as my miscarriages that were a little farther along. Hope you're coping well. I find that naming every loss helps me to grieve and not feel like I have to forget them, but that they were meant to be in heaven instead of with me!

Yep, I am doing ok. I'm just scared of it happening again. I guess that fear will always be there from now on.

Lola, so good to have you back!!

Cin, sorry about the bfn. Hopefully tomorrow!

Hobber, I think I will wait til 11dpo to test. I really don't feel optimistic about this cycle anyway.

5, I'm glad you got some goodish news re your fertility. Did he say what the process might involve? Will you have to have fertility treatment of some kind? Hopefully all the BDing will bring you a little miracle baby!

it shouldn't matter if you have 1 or 10 children, they should tell you all the risks.

I had no idea where I am in my cycle, I don't think I have O'd yet. Had some cramps but no EWCM.

TTC5, glad you got a glimmer of hope from that dr. It's not easy to know you may have to try for ever, believe me, but I think just being laid back about it will help you not go nuts.

LBAM, just throwing this out there- since you O so irregularly, I would think about doing opks again. You would have a better idea of when to do it. Personally, I usually O around day 14 (when not on fert meds) so for me, I know I can just dtd a bunch around then, but if it varied much more, I'd be all over some opks. I just think they will only help you get pg faster. You can get a ton of them on amazon.com for only $10- the Wondfo kind. I think they work just fine.

So, I am a little BLAH today. I guess I just wish I didn't have to deal with this infertility bullcrap. My ex is having their kid today, she's being induced (is exactly 2 weeks overdue, yikes). So now I am going to have to hear about this baby ad nauseum from my girls. BARF.

That's exactly what I told my DH that I'll be on pins and needles afraid to do anything that it might happen again! And I'm probably going to keep POAS like every day for a few weeks wondering if "the line is getting lighter" or something like that!

I'm 12 DPO and still -v HPT, it's ok because i didn't get a +v with DD until after AF was late, i must have speed bumps in my tubes or something, i am still hopeful.
