Okay, wow! Lots of new people! I'm going to try to catch up.
Wish - did you get your progesterone numbers?
Srbjbex - Hi there! Yes, secondary infertility is sooo frustrating (to say the least). I know I never saw it coming, maybe that adds to the sting. Glad all is well with your hormones, and seems like male factor issues can often be addressed. The journey sure is rough though. Big hugs to you...hope you get your bfp soon. I'm staying positive! It'd be awesome if the cooling patches made all the difference and you didn't even have to go to the fertility clinic. But it's good that that ball is rolling anyhow....
chedge - Hi and welcome to you as well. Ugh, glad your OB is finally listening to you, but geez seems like with that level of pain there should be some explanation. So sorry you're dealing with that, but thankful the lap came out okay. Sorry AF got you this time...stings even more when you have that glimmer of hope.
Seems like you've already gotten lots of great advice about temping. I don't know if this is something that goes without saying, but I'd recommend doing your charting on fertilityfriend.com. That will take care of some of the brainier stuff automatically, though you can tinker with it once you have the hang of it. Seems like it had some charting lessons, too. I don't know if your thermometer does this, but mine keeps the last temp I took. So if there was a day I could sleep in more than usual, I could still take my temp at the usual time without waking up all the way, then I could look at my temp again later to record it. I became a big fan of temping. I liked doing temps and OPKs together to get the bigger picture. OPKs tell you when ovulation should be imminent, but temping tells you if it actually happened and maybe some other clues, too. Also, if it turns out that the timing hasn't been the issue, if you can prove (with charting) that you've gotten your timing right enough times, then maybe your doctor will be more helpful. It makes things feel a little clinical sometimes, but it is such a valuable tool. Anyway, I'm hopeful for you this cycle!
tommy, still got everything crossed for you,
Hi Isaac!
Mooshie - Hi and welcome. I know how it feels to be on here after a loss. There are a lot of threads about TTCAL but not a lot of LTTC after loss. So I'd be in the TTCAL threads and it's like I'd forget over and over that they weren't infertility threads. I'd see woman after woman get a bfp with her rainbow, and I'd be happy for them, but gutted for myself. I've also struggled with blaming myself for my loss, but, while I don't know your story (I'm not asking you to share if you don't want to), it's extremely likely that it had nothing to do with anything you did or didn't do. Doesn't really seem sufficient to say that it's "bad luck," but sometimes the statistics are just not in our favor.
So sorry for your loss, and while I know we never really "get over it," I hope you can find a way to push through and not be too hard on yourself. I know you desperately wanted that baby, and you'd never do anything, especially not deliberately, to jeopardize that. Big hugs. Sorry it's hard when there are no real answers. Not sure about the temping, but I suppose you can try it and see if you get any sort of pattern. I temped when I had luteal phase insomnia and also when I was getting up at night with a 1 year-old. It wasn't ideal, but I was able to get the gist and still get cross hairs. Your results may vary, but you never know. I kinda still hope AF just stays away, but if she's around the corner, I hope she just gets it over with for you!
Hi Braven
I think you should be allowed to have one treat anyway! As long as one treat doesn't make you fall off the wagon. Hang in there, you're doing great.
Lanet - oh lanet, big big hugs and many many prayers. Glad they found it and are keeping close tabs on you and your LOs. Can't imagine how scared you must feel. Please keep us posted as you're able.
Hi Mrs W - Welcome. Your sn sounds familiar, but I don't know if I remember seeing you around or if I'm just confused. Wow I feel like I can really relate to your story. I also got pregnant easily with my angel baby, so I also never fathomed I'd have trouble getting pregnant again. My tests and DH's all came back normal, too. Though while I had a few odd cycles here and there, I had no
consistent symptoms that would make me think something was amiss. My heart goes out to you because it is so so hard seeing people all around you who have just want you want--and almost had. We wanted a 2 year age gap, too. We now have a 3 year, 9 month age gap. And while there are some things that are really great about it now, it's hard to really focus on the positives because it feels like I'm saying there's a plus side to the miscarriage or something. While I'd undo the mc in an instant if I could, I can say, when you look at your rainbow baby, you won't be able to imagine your life without THAT baby.
AFM, I'm more or less copy/pasting my introduction from a while back since not much has changed since then.
But here's my story for anyone who's new:
I'm 32. I got pg with my DD1 in 2010 on our 8th cycle of trying. So long enough for me to start to worry, but not long enough to suggest that something was really wrong. I'd been charting most of that time because I wanted to be ahead of the game just in case there was an issue, and my charts looked good at least. We wanted our kids to be 2 years apart, and I conceived again on our 2nd cycle of trying that time. My DD1's birthday was Feb 23, and that due date was Feb 24, 2013, so 2 years and 1 day apart. Seemed so perfect. However, that pregnancy ended in miscarriage. After conceiving so easily that time though, I was confident I'd get pregnant again. Meanwhile, I had to change doctors because of a change in our insurance (I'm in the US). I loved my old obgyn and, while not an RE, she was an expert in fertility issues. But I never got to see her about it because by the time I'd been trying long enough to know there WAS a problem, I had to find a new doctor. Thankfully by the time I got to see him, I had a year or so worth of charts and he agreed that they looked perfectly normal, with maybe one weird month. I had a couple of blood tests done right away: prolactin and TSH. They were both normal. He wanted DH to have an SA before doing anything else. DH had SA, he's a rock star. I felt even crappier and confused that even THAT sperm couldn't get me pregnant. Next I had an HSG to make sure my tubes were clear, and they that came out perfect as well. Tried for 3 more cycles after that to see if fertility was enhanced following that test, but no luck. Then I started on Clomid, kind of as a booster because I for sure ovulated fine on my own, and I got pregnant on my 2nd cycle of clomid (cycle 21 after my m/c). Never found out why I couldn't get pregnant, and while I'm super thankful there was a solution, I still really would like to know what the problem was. I just had my second daughter on November 5. I stick around because I love these ladies plus I want to cheer you all on.
When there are multiple new ladies at around the same time, it takes me some time to keep your stories straight.
So bear with me, I'll get to know you!

in!! FXFX
Srbjbex - I know all too well about 
issues... My hubby's first SA was 0% morph... and the second was so bad they couldn't even do morphology testing!! 
so I wait for my blood test results to see if I even ovulated... I have no P signs except sore boobs... so I am thinking I didn't...
hope everyone is doing well. I'm doing okay. Excited for Christmas. Having a hard time recently being good with diet with all the Christmas treats I'm making! Anyways. Hope everyone is well.
