I have heard bf can be very challenging. Thank you for sharing your experience. I am going to do my best but try not to be hard on myself if it doesn't work out for whatever reason.

Sorry I haven't been on in very long, I am still on a break from ttc, which is frustrating. I have my tests scheduled for monday though. They are going to do a transvaginal ultra sound, and then an hsg dye test to see if my tubes are open or not. Hopefully all is good and they start me on femara this next cycle. I really really hope I don't have to waste yet another cycle just waiting. I think I am going to be in disbelief when I finally see a positive pregnancy test. I am probably not going to process it fully until I start to see a belly.

Oh yeah, my ticker is wrong, I am now on CD 5, so I am starting yet another cycle without medication. I guess the dh and I are getting plenty rest from all the ttc stress though.

Michelle, I hope your tests go well and they find a simple solution to your fertility issues. Good luck on Monday! And although I know it is frustrating to have to wait, You and your DH probably really needed to have a break. Soon you can get back to actively TTC and I'm sure you'll get that BFP in no time!

Everything is well here except that we are getting a big snowstorm tonight. Tomorrow evening we are going out for DH's birthday (also our 10th anniversary of being together) and leaving Caitlyn with my mom! It's the first time I'll actually be leaving her. I've left her in the car with my MIL while I ran into the store or left her in the waiting room with her at the doctor's office but that is all. I'm a little nervous about it, I'm not going to lie.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Michelle- good luck with the tests! I hope you finally get the answers you deserve and that the femara is what you need to get your bfp. Keep us posted once you know more.

Steph- I hope you do ok with the storm. We are flying into Philly tonight for the shower I don't think it is supposed to be too bad there so far flight is on time but I suspect we may see delays enjoy your dinner and first time out!

I am sooooo upset right now...i took the glucose test and found out I failed it. I read most people do a one hour test then if they fail they do a 3 hour. My dr had me do a 2 hour and normal is 140 and under and I got 148 so he is having me do the 3 hour and if I fail that I have gd I am stressing about this so much and so confused as to why I am at risk for this. I had this same exact test done right before I got pregnant when the RE was checking all kinds of things in my bloodwork and I passed with a 90 and now somehow I fail with a 148!?! I eat healthy...whole grains, fruits, veggies,ect. Obviously I splurge but I really don't think I go overboard when I do, it is in moderation. No one in my family has diabetes or had gd, i was thin pre pregnancy and so far i have only gained 14 lbs. I just don't get it and I am so nervous now..this really sucks

Rachel I know a few thin women without any family history who have gotten gd during pregnancy. I don't know why it happened to them but their doctors took good care of them and after pregnancy they had no further problems. Perhaps you will pass your 3 hour and it was just some fluke. Anyway I hope everything is ok. Try not to stress about it as it won't do you or baby any good.

I don't know if Philly is supposed to get much snow, probably a few inches at least. It's nearly 1030pm here and I think we have around 4'' so far so you may be delayed at some point. I hope you don't have any traveling issues and I hope you have a great shower. I'm sure you'll get plenty of fun things

SO nervous about tomorrow and feeling a bit under the weather. Hope I;m not coming down with something and most of all I hope Caitlyn doesn't get it!

Before I went on BC I would get a period twice a month, when I stopped my BC I started to get it every month again like normal but I started dating someone so I started taking it again. When we broke up (3 years later) I stopped taking it and thats when the irregular cycles started. Now I only ovulate every other month.

BC can really screw you up. I'm sure you can get back to ovulating regularly soon. Have you been to a doctor about it?

Thanks steph, I talked to the nurse and she said I wasn't over by a lot and they have patients that fail the 2 hour then pass the 3 so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

We ended up getting in 20 mins early I couldn't believe we didn't get delayed! We got about a few inches here over night. How much did you end up getting? I hope all is well there and you feel better and have a nice night out

Well its been like this for the last few years (it was like this before I got pregnant with my first son) So I know Im not infertile and no I haven't. I mean, besides having more trouble conceiving it hasn't caused me any issues. Maybe my body will eventually go back to ovulating every month, maybe not.
I will go visit a doctor though if I miss two months in a row with no BFP.

You probably won't have any fertility issues then. Good luck to you trying to ttc!
