Anyone else experiencing difficulties conceiving no.2 or beyond?

[Clareabell]

so sorry Braven that stupid I know completely what you mean I don't see what else I can do. I'm seriously considering seeing a specialist but I also don't know what they can do. Anyone trying anything new and exciting this month? I'm going to use preseed.

 

[donnarobinson]

I'm going to be using conceive plus x

So sorry Braven so frustrating! It's so hard to accept that there isn't much else to do, I just don't understand why this can be so difficult!

Fx'd for you for this cycle

 

[wildchic]

I used pre-seed last cycle and I am really impressed with it! It didn't help with getting a bfp, but it made dtd so much more fun
I will definitely recommend it.

I ordered soft-cups which should arrive this week. I'm hoping that a combination of the soft-cups and pre-seed will bring me my BFP!!!
I'm excited to give them a go and so is dh

Have any of you ladies tried soft-cups?

 

[Clareabell]

I haven't used soft cups but would never say never.

Anyone had problems with lack of cm - can this hinder getting pregnant ? I've not had stretchy cm for a while , how much does it matter ?

 

[donnarobinson]

I never seem to get ewcm & I've been pregnant b4 , I don't no if I'm just not checking enough, x

 

[wildchic]

I don't get ewcm, this is why I use the pre-seed and I take 1000mg of epo daily until a day before O.

I've read that watery cm is fertile as well, so if you get that, its enough. When we conceived our dd, I never checked cm, so I wouldn't know if I had a problem back then.

 

[Clareabell]

I don't really get it either so am going to use preseed this month and see if it helps at all

So went to my GP today, after advice from some lovely ladies on here. I'm back at the Gyno is August. My GP was so friendly and explained all the blood tests i had taken August Last year. My progesterone levels were low, I'm not ovulating...

Is there anyways to help bring ovulation on that i can do myself except weight loss and clomid?

So i bluntly asked him "can my fertility doctor refuse to give me medication to kick start it?" and he said she can't. But losing the weight will help, so i'm trying to lose as much weight as possible.
I'm currently 220lbs so it's a long road...

I've got two month's two make a dent into it to prove to her im serious about it.

Has anyone else ever had issues with there Gyno??

 

[Clareabell]

I haven't seen a specialist at all we have to pay here for all fertility treatment if we already have a child I know that Clomid is more effective if you have a lower BMI though so losing some weight can only help.

Glad you had a good appointment with your GP today and feel listened too. It makes all the difference.

 

[Bambina]

Thank you,

Yes it does, it feels so much better to not just be a fat girl trying to have a baby that no one listens too.

 

[donnarobinson]

Hope ur all ok girls x

I just realized there are SIX people I know who were pregnant around the time I was that have had or are having another baby. SIX! Depressing me quite a bit today. My best friend and my sister in law are two of the six. And a host of people that shouldn't be having babies that are!

 

[Clareabell]

Braven it's so hard not to be bitter. I can name 10 people that are pregnant at the moment just of the top of my head there are bound to be more

I'm not quite bitter yet lol just sad. And jealous

 

[wildchic]

So I just come from my gynea and he's sending me for hormone tests when I get af ( I hope she doesn't show her ugly face and I get my BFP ).
I'm hoping that when I do go for the blood work, that everything is ok. He also wants dh to go for a sperm check, but wants to first get my blood work done.

This is so frustrating!!!
How I pray we all get our BFP'S and that we don't have to go through this!

 

[Clareabell]

I'm leaning more towards the bitter side now I work as a social worker so lots of involvement with parents who just don't deserve children. It's definitely not the right job when unable to conceive.

Great news your going for tests Wildchic I really hope they provide you with some answers.

 

[wildchic]

I really hope so Clareabell.
But that too feels ages away. I guess I'll just dtd to take my mind off things, lol

Quick question- I'm on cd10 today and when I checked cm, there was ewcm. Last cycle I also had this on cd10, but didn't ovulate until cd16. Anyone know why this is? I only had it on cd10 and not again after that
