tm- I can definitely understand being cautiously happy and scared! Sorry I don't read past posts - have you miscarried before? I will be stalking for the next two weeks and your whole pregnancy to pray for a little boy! [emoji170]

I just got some blood drawn Thursday and found my LH is 3x higher than FSH. So...she gave me some Clomid to try next cycle. Nervous, but happy to have some answers! [emoji4]

That is so good that you finally have some answers. It's terrible being in the dark and just feeling like you're lost. I really hope clomid is going to do the trick for you.

Yes, I lost a sway baby at 12 weeks last December. Just like Junie. I had swayed for about 8/9 weeks and taken clomid and I got pg first try. But sadly there was something wrong with the baby. It was a missed miscarriage, so my body went on thinking I was pg right up until our 12wk scan. Baby died at about 8 weeks. Totally heartbreaking - and I had to have a d and c and there were complications because they didn't do it right. So it has been a journey!

I'm not sleeping a lot and crossing everything. I have a scan booked for two weeks away and there is literally nothing you can do before that date to check if you're still carrying a live baby!

Let me know how you do with the clomid? Like I say, I got pg right away - it just wasn't meant to be that time.

Oh man...that sounds terrible. I couldn't imagine going through that - my heart goes out to you. I hope this is your rainbow baby (but with a darker shade of blue rainbow![emoji6])

Like you said though, nothing you can do until 8 weeks. So try to relax and take care of yourself as that's what's most important for you and baby!

Thanks for the encouragement with the Clomid! I really hope it works and we don't have to do anything too invasive.

Hi Taytum!! I think clomid is going to do the trick for you, did your Dr. give you something to bring on AF?

[TaytumJ]

Hello again, Junie! Good to be back and looking forward to some progress this time around! [emoji4]

Yes, I'm on Provera now (day 4), so just waiting for that to take affect and then begin a new cycle. Never been more excited to start my period!

Massive congrats to fivebabies, seabeewife, tm29, sc1411, smarston3 and eleena - hope I got everyone? Clearly I am a fertility albatross, as I'm offline for 2 weeks and it's BFPs galore! I am so very happy for you all.

Junie, it looks like the soy worked! I hope it does the trick. It gave me massive EWCM but didn't help me O sooner (nothing does).

Taytum, the good news is high LH plus long cycles means you probably have PCOS which sways blue! I think Clomid will help a great deal.

Good luck to everyone trying this cycle.

I got my test results back (CD8 so not perfectly accurate), my LH, FSH, E2 & P as well as full thyroid panel are all normal. My AMH is excellent (just under 5). Buuut, my testosterone is undetectable and my SHBG is too high. So I think I possibly went too far in terms of lowering my fertility. DF still hasn't provided his semen sample though so we really don't know. I won't be using him again regardless but I'd like to know if he was a or the factor inhibiting conception. IVF is looking good considering my AMH. Currently I'm having my longest cycle EVER...resuming vitamins and a rich diet apparently delays O for me.

So great to see you back Maiden!!! Do you have another donor sorted out? Would be good to have DF tested like you said. Very curious.

So great to hear from you maiden!! Hope you get things sorted out to return to swaying. Will insurance pay for IVF with the "problems" you listed?

So good to hear from you Maiden! Good news from the RE and now you canine forward. I hope you find another donor soon.

Can't wait for your BFP [emoji4]

My insurance probably wouldcover IVF at least partially if I absolutely need it (and I'm far from that point so far as we know, unless I have tubal issues) but in Germany gender selection is illegal so I wouldn't be able/want to use it. Fortunately I can afford the best and I'd use a US clinic if I go that route.

No luck yet on the donor front but I haven't been looking bc I've been slammed with crises and my internet & tablet have been especially unreliable lately. Plus I'm just not feeling well. My hormones are definitely wacked out this cycle.
