29 ttc#1 14 months, wanting a buddy!

[Feb4th2011]

i just want to scream "MMMMEEEE TTTTOOOOOOO!!!" My husband and I moved to the middle of NO WHERE Texas to help out with his dad and younger sister. I love them both, but I have no family here save them and I really need someone to talk too. My husband tries, but he gets irritated when I start crying and he says to "toughen up." Some men just don't get it.

I am 29 and DH is 28. We are TTC our 1st baby. He has Hypospadias but the Dr's assure us that it isn't going to intefere with conception. The Dr. also said that he has pretty high SC. We have been leaving it in God's hands for the past 3 years and now we are actively trying by me charting my CM and when we BD and when AF rears her ugly head. This has been going on for about 3 months with active charting for the last month. I am going to be posting in another thread bc I am now CD 38 and 23 DPO w/ BFN. What fun!! I have never been late before except for 1 year ago when I had surgery and the anesthesia made me skip one cycle.

I would love to get to know you ladies so we can help each other out in the beautiful yet stressful ballet called conception!!

Welcome Welcome!

5 sleeps until my apt! I'm getting more excited than nervous... excited to just start getting things sorted out. i want my normal cycle's back!

 

[waiting2c]

Good Luck for your appt Feb!! Will be great for you to get things sorted!

Been a bit slack on reading and replying this week, been frantic at work. How is everyone doing? Where is everyone at with things?

I had a blood test today and have one in 21ish days to test all hormone levels etc so hope that all comes out fine. Excited to be in a new cycle.

Hi everyone, I'm feeling better now, there's still a very slight chance for this month, so we're trying.....praying for an early O!

KC, glad your tubes look good!!! Did it hurt? Or was it just nerves?

Hurah Feb! It'll be SO good to know what's going on. Let us know what you find out!

fingers crossed for the blood work, waiting. Is this just to be sure you're ovulating?

 

[waiting2c]

So glad you are feeling better Hena, and hurray for small chances. Have my fingers crossed for you that you O early

Yup blood work to confirm that I am ovulating in the right sort of timeframes... will just be nice to hear it. Have a vague recollection of some tests taken when I was a teenager and them telling my parents I might have trouble having kids, just want to check now as my mum cant remember it at all ... high chance im wrong but it will plague me if I dont find out.

Feb... you dont have to take time away from us cos you are in a funk, we are here for you. You have your appointment soon aye? Come be in a funk on here, we will support you

 

[Hena]

Feb hope stupid AF leaves soon and you start to feel better! Is your appt today? Good luck!!!


I'm in Maine now, arrived yesterday, and guess what? It looks like I'm "in" this month afterall. Nico talked me into continuing with opks and temping even though I was frustrated and wanted to take a month off, and I'm SO glad he did becasue it looks like I o'd yesterday we bd'd once a day leading up to it and yesterday morning before I left, and this morning my temp is WAY up, much too high to be just from travel. I know there's still no garuntee, but we've got some hope and that's something

Hey Ladies

So My apt was yesterday afternoon... I still have AF and have been having lots of clotting. She did an external and internal exam... I told her AF was visiting and she made it very clear to me that she did NOT care and had no problem doing the internal ultrasound while AF is here... It only took her a minute of explaining to me that when they are looking to diagnose PCOS the radiologist always asks for there to be an internal done... and that if i want to wait to come back it will be another 5-8 week long wait. Needless to say i sucked it up and let her do it lol. So I'm laying there watching her face for any indication as to what she is actually seeing... and i see her counting... I ask her if she can tell me anything or if I have to wait for the DR. She says, I can't tell you anything... but I can answer your questions. ... I asked questions and it looks like I have a lot of cysts on my ovaries.... 1-4 is normal, over 10 is PCOS range and she made hand gestures that would make one believe that I have many many more than just 10. It took everything in me to not bawl in front of her... i got dressed and went to the waiting room where Greg was and when we walked out the door, he asked me how it went... I couldn't even speak... when we got in the elevator I just fell apart.... Even though I'm not officially diagnosed, I know i have cysts... I'm in a bit of a denial atm... my apt isn't until next Friday the 29th... and my mind is going crazy with "what ifs" PCOS, or ovarian cancer?... I hate this so much. I'm so angry at my body... soooo angry. Greg has been awesome... so supportive... I just feel BLAH. Not a very happy update

 

[Feb4th2011]

She did say none of the Cysts were larger than 1cm... which is good?

 

[waiting2c]

Feb. What an awful trying time for you. Try to not stress too much about all the what ifs and everything until you have your appt. You will be able to find out hopefully exactly what the deal is at that appointment and armed with knowledge make a plan. Even if it is PCOS its not the end, just means trying different things.

Im so glad greg is being super supportive for you, you need that right now. Take care huh, and try not to worry yourself stupid!!!

 

[Coco14]

Yey Hena great news. and so jealous that you are in Maine!

So sorry Feb, that must have been horrible for you. I hope the results aren't as bad as you think and then you can get the right treatment. Take care.

How's the weather in Maine??!!! I actually have a friend that is Vacationing there right now too lol. How fantastic would it be to get a BFP while your with your family???!!!

 

[Hena]

don't worry Feb, if it's PCOS then you have LOADS of possible treatments and it's better to know, eh? And yes, it's good that none of the cycts is larger than a cm. If they suspect ovarian cancer, especially in such a young woman, they don't mess around, you'd have seen a doctor within hours of your exam so you can put that right out of your mind.

Maine is gorgeous! So warm and sunny and lovely! I've been working in the garden, enjoying the fresh air and listening to the loons at night...heavenly! We'll be heading to Nova Scotia soon and visiting family and friends, but should be back in Maine for either AF or a BFP...it would be soooo exciting to be able to tell my parents in person, but I'm not going to count on it, I don't want the crushing disappointment of last cycle.

Hey everyone! I haven't been on in a long time. Working 14hr days and no time. Still no baby here. I gave up keeping track. My husbands cousins gf got prego and doesnt even want to be prego. She wants an abortion. It tears me to pieces. She took one of my pregnancy tests and got a definate positive. She was so mad she threw the test at me. I was so discouraged by it. I cried all evening. Just no energy to try anymore. I sure hope that you all are doing well. Babydust to you all!

OMG - I am so very sorry Angelluvbilly that would have been so awful for you. It makes me so sad to hear of people who dont want kids aborting them (God I hate that word) when there are so many of us TTC. My youngest sister has done the same, I found out after the deed was done and it tore me up. I hope you can stop working such long days and have a rest and that you get a BFP soon!
