Anyone else counting down to April 1st?

[mummy_smurf2b]

Thanks so much. You ladies are awesome. I called my doctor back and told them that we wanted to try a few more months naturally before proceeding to iui. I guess I just sort of had an idea of how this would work and that was far from it, of course. She told me that there's a new vitamin that they are TRYING and that she would send us some. I hope that it works and no weird side effects. I work in pharmaceuticals and I hate to be the 1 try out new things on the market. I'm going to research it as much as I can when I receive it. At least it's a vitamin and not a new drug. I would hate to be a number in one of those hilarious drug recall commercials.

Although our chances are slim we're still going to try this cycle, who knows. I'm trying to stay in the brighter side. Unfortunately I switched my insurance this year and fertility treatment is not covered. So if we go that route we would have to pay out of pocket or wait until next year and switch my insurance back to one that covers fertility treatment. Patience is a virtue.

you did just get me thinkin I might get some fertility insurance in case, do they cover both male and female for one price?

Fx'd for you guy's I hope AF stays away.

Diddy she did say that they will be sending him some new vitamin that they are trying, but she didn't give me a name. When I get them in the mail I'll tell you guys. I probably won't get it until Monday or Tuesday cause of the holiday tomorrow. I'm glad for that cause I needed this 3 day weekend. Your fertility appointment is getting closer the next few days will go by quick hopefully. I said I would buy some fertility blend for males if I the vitamins they send don't work or dh doesn't like them.

Mummy

Yeah they cover both male and female treatment. I wish now that I would've just stayed with them. The price wasn't much of a difference either like 2 extra dollars a month. The only reason I changed is cause I wanted both dental and health from the same place and I didn't think that I would be at this point of course. Currently I'm with Cigna and the Dental is AMAZING the health is good too, but no fertility treatment or meds are covered. (The 1 thing that I would use it for) Before I was with Humana Dental not really good, but health phenomenal. So I'm just going to go Cigna Dental and Humana Health.

Hopefully we conceive over the next 2 months, cause I'd prefer to conceive my child making love to my husband than laying in some white wall hospital room with a Speculum. If not I'm going to make a iui appointment for end of September early October and pay out of pocket for what ever is needed. That way I don't have to wait for next year. I guess I really want my bump apparently lol

 

[mummy_smurf2b]

I was havin a look at a few insurance cheapest I found was £100 a month lol but il keep lookin

 

[Mom2sam]

Fx crossed mzwid you conceive before it comes to iui i completely understand & happened for me before it got to that so hopefully does for you too x

Diddy 9dpo already! X

M-smurf in uk were lucky we get all that for free on nhs i didn't have to pay anything for tests & they said iui would've been free on nhs too also 2 goes at ivf. I think were lucky we have nhs although i'm guilty of complaining about it at times lol x

Oh I thought with oh working we would still have to pay for it I knew u can have two go at ivf on nhs although I thought it was actually 3 lol. I'm just thinking ahead I'm worried that if after so long we have no luck oh won't try other ways because he said to me a few times if he cnt have kids he would adopt, it just made me feel he wasn't gonna consider anything else yet havin kids means the world to me.

 

[mzhwd]

Thanks Mom2Sam I'm praying that I do.

Mummy £100 is a lot lol You should do the nhs Mom2Sam mentioned. DH had mentioned adoption a while back, but now he's more like let's do whatever it takes. So hopefully your hubby will change his mind too, if necessary. I don't have anything against adoption I'd just prefer having my own.

This whole experience has really put a lot of things in perspective for me. I'm contemplating if I should tell my mom or not. I haven't told any one of any of this us ttc...nothing only DH and you guys. I guess I'm starting to feel like I wish I had some else to go through it with and then maybe I wouldn't feel like I'm going through it alone. Or that I'm holding a secret. But on the other hand, I don't know how comfortable I really am with telling anyone else. I'm more of a private person.


I wonder how Kell and Melly are doing.

 

[mummy_smurf2b]

Yea know what u mean iv nothing against adoption bit i too want my own and the excitement of carrying them for 9months again. Oh has told his mum we tryin and I told my mum too.

Not heard from Kell for a few week so no idea and I think mell is away?

 

[Diddy2013]

I tested this morning 10dpo...nada. I did my temp and it's not getting higher. Probably no temp or testing until Sunday. I expect af by then.

 

[MolGold]

I was expecting AF next Tuesday but it happened to arrive 1 week early! I never have perfect 28 day cycles and this cycle when I relied on cd22 as O day ( as of my last 5 cycles), O happened early! I am not sure if I BD'd before cd17 all that much. Hmmph, tricks my body plays.

Mzhwd - yes I am hoping the same, to conceive with DH. FX!

Diddy, all the best for a luch cycle.

M-smurf: 11 dpo! FX

 

[mummy_smurf2b]

Only 2more days til af is due hehe although I have a feelin she will arrive lol

 

[Mom2sam]

Hmm now you got me thinking m-smurf i know back then dh was wonly working part time as he was a law student so maybe that's why we got free treatment also could be 3 treatments of ivf was 8 yrs ago so my memories not spot on. Anyway there's so much they can do now so hopefully works out for everyone. How long have you been ttc #2? I'm onto cycle 5 or 6 of actively trying now & i too find myself getting worried at times but dh isn't worried in the slightest he said it will happen just relax. Guess it's just a woman thing lol

Cd8 for me af left yesterday & still haven't started dtd i think this cycle just going to try to relax about it all & try to dyd eod if we can (that wouldn't come into relaxed approach i guess lol) but we'l see dh working over time too this next week so will be pretty tired when comes home. My preseed has arrived & my hpts but no thermometer yet still waiting on that x

Clearblue sent a message they received my questionaire & will be contacting me in next few days

 

[mummy_smurf2b]

That made me go Google it mom2sam and from what I'm readin it depends on a few factors one being if u have kids or not which technically oh doesn't n it says gp has to refer u to qualify I just hope it doesn't come to that. We been trying for around 5month but there's only been about 3 of those with right timing lol
Currently CD 34 today for me lol
Glad to hear about clear blue they should ring u in next day or two they did me but prob get to Mon or Tuesday now

 

[Mom2sam]

Yep that sounds about right then as my doc asked few questions about how long we had been trying & if it was our first etc & then he had referred us. They haven't called yet so i'm guessing next week too.

I think we have been trying same time then but we too took a month out so i say 4 months. Dont worry yet it's still early & i onow from experience timing is essential although they say once could be enough well for some of us dont work that way lol i had to follow smep properly both times i conceived to make sure was sperm there. Even this cycle i think we will struggle just so tired with ds being poorly & dh working late but will just try best we can

We wer both too tired to dtd today so think will try to follow smep from tmrw i usually get positive opk cd 15 so gives us enough time.

 

[mzhwd]

Fx'd for you guys. Today was my OD. It's nice to know that the Fertilaid didn't change up my ovulation day. I've been relatively consistent with CD13. Its almost a given like AF for me lol. I had a pretty nice independence day and drunk a little alcohol. I figured what the hay some times a glass is needed. Lol well I guess all I have to do now is wait and confirm ovulation. I was thinking at least now I'll save money on my smiley opks and pregnancy test. I don't think I'll be testing early any time soon.

Mom I hope that you get a chance to get some good timing BD in this cycle.

 

[Diddy2013]

Cd1....nothing I will be able to do but meet with the fertility doctor. I guess the new phase of this journey is almost beginning.

 

[mummy_smurf2b]

Wow I'm so nervous right now I'm shaking haha. Yesterday I tested with ic went back after an hour and swear I could see a faint line did another day n sure I saw line much sooner so I decided to use one the clear blue one they sent me and omg I don't believe it.

 

[mummy_smurf2b]

I decided to try one of my cb digital tests to see which was the right ov date.

 

[MolGold]

OMG congrats M-smurf!! glad you got your BFP H&H 9 months!!

[mummy_smurf2b]

I messaged Kell on what's app yesterday but no reply was trying see where she is.

 

[Mom2sam]
