30-Somethings TTC#1

[SquirrelGirl]

Aww, so sorry Waiting!


I'm doing all right. Been working out every night when I get home, so hoping I get in really great shape! If I can't be preggers, I may as well be HOT! Had some spotting today on 3DPO... but whatever, not going to obsess about it......

Well Im out this month. AF arrived 6 days early this morning and shocked the hell out of me! I think I had a 25 day cycle or something which must be a kind of record for me.

Disappointed but we decided if this month wasnt out month we were going to go to the doctor given we're on to cycle 11 now and appointment booked for next wednesday. Hopefully will refer us to the fertility clinic which could take 6-8 weeks for an appointment. Dying to know if there is a problem with one of us but at the same time not sure if I really want to know!

Squirrell can you put me down for 3rd September please?

I totally hear you and . My appt is tomorrow and although I know I need to go I'm not totally looking forward to it. There's going to be so much work involved and no guarantees. I can do it it's just that I'm still wishing that I didn't have to. I'll post an update.

Hi everyone. Hope you're all having a good day. Tomorrow's my appt with the fertility specialist. I'm thinking I won't get any real answers and that'll it'll be a few months before I do but at least I'm on my way.

Hey good luck for your appointment, I know that when I went it made me feel so much better because it meant I was taking charge of the situation. You may also get quite a few answers within a month as I had a HSG, day 3 bloods and DH spermies checked in that time. Although they couldn't find anything wrong it made me feel better knowing that we had eliminated lots of possible problems.

Sending you loads of and hope all goes well for you.

Morning Ladies

Yesterday I went to the docs for CD2 check to make sure my ovaries were ok and I could proceed with round 2 of Femara and all seemed to be fine. So the cycle begins again. DH is becoming more relaxed with the whole situation now, at first he would never like to talk about it and wouldn't accept that we needed any medical intervention because they could not find anything wrong with us. Now he accepts that anything that could help us get a bump is worth trying.

Today is the last working day of the week here in Bahrain and the last weekend of fun before Ramadan starts so going to make the most of it and head to the beach with friends.

Hope you are all well and looking forward to your weekend

My cbfm must be so confused. It's off by 7 days and so today at CD 17 it's registering a peak. I hate that thing anyway!

Hi everyone not much to update tonight.

Squirrel I so need to take a leaf out of your book with the exercise ! I got a new job recently and 12-14 hour days are the norm at the moment so exercise slipping. Will do better next week. I like your mantra - if I'm not pregnant my god will I be fit & skinny!!

 

[maxxiandniko]

Hi again. I went to my appt today and not much different than what I expected. The doc's thinking that my eggs are of poor quality if anything but I've got lots to do before we know for sure. I had tons of blood taken and referrals to a geneticist and a hematologist. DH will have sperm analysis and I have an hsg scheduled for the 16 with more bloods that day. The workup should be completed within 6 weeks and then we'll know what step to take next. My cbfm registered peak today so we'll give it a try today and tomorrow morning and see if we catch the egg. We're leaving for a vacation tomorrow and it's an overseas flight and since we'll be on the plane tomorrow night we'll have to bd tomorrow morning. I'll be back the 15th but there really won't be anything to update till after I get back anyway. I hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Hey Maxxi, sounds like your appointment went well - lots of action so at least you can move on to the next step if need be - let's hope you catch the egg today/tomorrow and don't need the rest of the tests! Have a safe flight

Good luck with diet and work outs!!! I did nutrisystem and lost a little over ten pounds the first time I did it. I started it again about a week ago but am struggling to stick to it this time!!! I started trying to diet and work out when I didnt get my BFP at the end of July!! I felt the same way and figured if i wasnt pregnant I would focus on loosing weight and getting back into shape!!

I am going to try to get back on the diet and work out wagon again soon though, since i have fell off the last few days!!!

 

[SquirrelGirl]

Hi ladies, I'll be offline for a couple days, so if anyone new stops in -- WELCOME! I'll be sure to post testing dates when I get back if anyone wants them.

[smurffette]

HI Everyone- can I join again? I was on the other thread but dropped off due to travelling/work stress etc.
Congrats to all the BFPs this month so far!! That's amazing!
We've been trying for a couple of months but now we're under a bit of pressure as we have to move countries in a year and a half. I'm really hoping we can get pregnant before that and move with a little one because once I start my new job I'll have to wait to start trying.....aghhhh complicated. Anyway I really need to focus on relaxing and having fun. I hope we can all help each other with that!!
I'm on CD1 so I won't be testing for a while.
Looking forward to seeing lots more BFPs here!

HUGE CONGRATS Gemie that's fantastic news.

I hope the next 9 months pass by quickly and smoothly for you.

This thread really does seem to be lucky. I really hope we get loads more BFP's this month.
