anyone got pregnant after ovarian drilling?

[arza786]

Hiya ladies!
Like Tella, I have also been MIA for a while, we came back from our week long holiday in Morocco which was great, 2 weeks ago and have been too busy ever since!
I had a positive OPK on day 18 of my cycle, and had been temp charting, as I had taken Clomid, I had a good cycle, as usual read too much in to all my symptoms, just to have all my hopes torn apart by a big temp drop this morning and a -ve pregnancy test!
So no pregnancy for me, this cycle...found out my aunty-in-law who is almost 10 years older than me is pregnant, and also my beautician...I am happy for them, I just can't help but feel...Why not me?
I do check in this forum, congrats Munzy on your pregnancy!
Tella, u will be missed, Enjoy your TTC time off- hope it pays off for you. You and me are WAY overdue our good news!

Good luck to the everyone else! Take Care!

Oh Tella - I'm jealous a bit actually! Since getting my BFP and spotting I've been too scared to BD I feel very sorry for my DH but I'm petrified ill start bleeding or something...
I'm glad you managed to stop taking OPK4 and BDing on time - you are right, its party season and if you have your appointment in Jan you might as well make the most of it now!

Jennie - do you think you ovulated last cycle? Sore boobs is a good sign. CD24 is still quite early so best of luck for the next few days.

Arza - you are right, after me, Keisha and Cridge you and Tella had your OD the longest time ago...so I always have everything tightly crossed for you to get your BfPs!!!

hiya hun tbh im not sure :/ iv not got a high reading on my clear blue monitor and im starting to worry i havent ovulated im due on first week december. how are you getting on x

 

[Cridge]

Hi girls!

Maria - no, thanksgiving is not bigger than Christmas in the US, but it is very big. Our "holiday season" starts at Halloween and it just escalates until Jan 1. It's a fun time of year. BTW, I think you'd be safe to put dh out of his misery. It was scary dtd the first time after finding out about being pregnant, but you might be surprised at how nice it is.... you're super sensitive down there!

Jennie - I agree with Maria, it's still pretty early for testing. sore boobs are a good sign, but give it a little more time and test again!

tella - have fun the next couple of months!! HOpefully good things will happen!

arza - sorry about the bfn! Will you be on clomid again next cycle?

Welcome ck! keep us posted on when you have OD!

afm - today is cd6. af was very light this cycle. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or bad. It's possible that what I experienced was a "normal" af. I usually have at least 2-3 days of very heavy bleeding with a couple days of medium bleeding as well, and this time I only had 2 days of light/medium bleeding with a couple days before and after of mild spotting. This is my 5th short cycle in a row, so maybe my body just doesn't need those heavy bleeds any more. Usually I go months and months between. tomorrow is my last day of femara - absolutely no side effects even on 10mg, which is great. I've got a busy, busy week ahead of me and then next Monday I'll have my first u/s to see what's going on in there. I just hope there's something this time.

The m on my fertilty monitor is flashn which means im approaching end of my cycle gahh nervous :/

 

[MommyMel]

MariaF .... you are an Olive !!!! ..... i just love to watch you grow....

hi everyone...... i am taking a break till Jan also.... my body needs some time off,,,, and i need to stop stressing and re-focus..... maybe something positive will happen,,

 

[MariaF]

Oh ladies, its really sad to see so many of you leave the thread for a break

But I totally understand that it can be sooo beneficial! Also, its december tomorrow and that means a month full of parties, presents and hopefully time off. I genuinely wish to all of you that if Santa isn't generous with a BFP for christmas that you definitely get one very soon in 2012!

Hoping to get some exciting updates in a few weeks from all of you! Happy Holidays, ladies!! (In case I don't get a chance to speak to you before) AND

 

[Cridge]

jennie - hopefully the doesn't find you. Does the "m" mean that your hormones are dropping or is it just counting days?

mommymel - it's a good time to take a break. enjoy the holidays ... but don't forget about us! Keep us posted!

Maria - I can't believe you're 9 weeks! Time is flying!!

This cycle has been so weird already that I don't have much hope, but I'm looking forward to my u/s on Monday and have my fx'd until then. If this cycle doesn't work, I'm giving my body a rest cycle with no meds and will go from there.

I hope everyone else is doing well. Things have been very quiet around here!

 

[jp42510]

Cridge- Maybe weird is a good thing??? Good luck on your upcoming scan...I know those always stress me out.

 

[Cridge]

Cridge- Maybe weird is a good thing???

I'm hoping weird is a good thing!!

 

[MariaF]

Cridge - weird isn't always bad! In fact as you may remember the cycle I caught I have completely written off because after seeing a nice 12.5mm follie on CD12 and not getting a positive opk by CD17 when the doctor said I shud definitely ovulate by! Yet 8 days later we must have caught that egg finally!

I wonder how snflwrgrl is doing and pitty and Fee... I'm sure I missed some other ladies who had OD and are waiting for their miracles.

Jennie - any more developments?

 

[jennievictora]

I think it just says that when you shod be due on :/ it dropped to low fertilty im worried cos i didnt get a peak fertilty reading but i dunno if thats cos the clomid. Cos i got high readings all the way through :l

Hi ladies just checking in this week...I have been doing OPK'S and I think I ovulated it is hard to tell with the pee sticks, their is so much room for error, but it def looks a lot darker then the previous ones I have done. The last time I BD was about two days ago I think, and my husband is NOT interested tonight I told him I was ovulating, and he thinks that's the only reason I want to BD even though it isn't. After I got my ovarian drilling done, the doctor apparently told him not to BD for six weeks so he is using that as an excuse even though we did it two days ago. I feel like he is not doing it on purpose, and I am just so frustrated because I feel like I am going through this alone, and it is just really hard to deal with the infertility, nevermind my husband not being cooperative. So idk. I just hope I can convince him to BD with me before my window closes. And if he doesn't, I hope his little swimmers from two days ago lasts.
Sorry for such a long post.....just really bummed at the moment

Hi ladies,

How's everyone doing? Angeluh........i dont know what to tell you but hang in there maybe he is feeling the pressure

Hi Cridge,
I am sorry that you are having a weird cycle but you never know what your body is doing.Just wait for the ultrasound and who knows it might be good news

AFM: I am on CD-13(took 2.5mg letrozole(3-&)) and just had an ultrasound done. I have a follicle on my right measuring 21 mm with a lining of 7 mm. I have to go back tomorrow again to monitor whats going on. I am just praying for the best too.

Ladies don't give up hope doesn't matter what until we get our bundle of joy.Our journey doesn't end until we reach our destination.

Angeluh - I know exactly how you feel. I have been married for 9 years and was ready about 5 or 6 years ago to start TTC. DH however took some convincing. Then when he was finally ready, we found out I had PCOS and was having a really hard time. So, after OD, he didn't agree with me going to a fertility specialist (mainly because it was so expensive) and he thought the only time I wanted to BD was when I was ovulating. I found it was best to not tell him all of the details and when I was ovulating. I wanted to share this entire experience with him, but the more I told him the more it seemed like a "science project" to him and the more stress it created. Hope this helps...even a little.

AFM - I was due for AF on Tuesday, but nothing yet! I took an HPT but it was a BFN. I haven't felt the usual cramping before AF, but I am sure she is on her way. If she doesn't appear by Monday - I will take another test. Stay away stay away!

 

[Angeluh05]

Snflwrgrl, thank you so much. I have been ready to concieve since before I met my husband. I just feel like being a mother is something I was always meant to do, so I really hope that I am able to fulfill that dream. I think I will stop telling my husband when I am ovulating. I think I just wanted to feel like both of us were in it instead of me by myself. I did the OPK's all week, started about seven days after my operation. On day 12, which was yesterday, I got ONE possibly positive OPK. I retested a couple later, and it was negative. I didn't test until like seven at night, then I retested again at around three am, so I guess I just got the tail end of my surge. I am really crampy today, so hopefully I ovulated on my own before the OD I NEVER ovulated, so even if I don't get pregnant at least their is progress when do I start counting the two week wait?

 

[snflwrgrl9]

Ang, its hard to tell unless you know when you ovulated for sure. When I had my OD I didn't realize I would O so soon after the procedure - 11 days after. I was being monitored by my FS, but I knew exactly when. I have just tried the "cheap" OPKs this month, but before I was using the Clear Blue Digital so there wasn't any guessing - if you saw a smiley you knew it was time to
I am going to use the cheap sticks from now on and then use the CB Digital as a "confirmation".

Also, I know what you mean about always wanting to be a mother. DH asked why I get so upset when I get a negative. They just don't understand. Keep your head up - our turn will come.

 

[Tella]

Ang > I have exactly the same with my DH, when i tell him i O then he is very distant and reluctant. So i have stopped telling him and taken on SMEP from CD8 so he doesnt know when im Oing, just Bd every other day. Good luck wiht the 2WW it is hard.

Sunflwr > Good luck, fx'd that AF stays away and you get your BFP next week!!!!!!!!!!

Shareena > that is fantastic news!!! Are you going to do Progesterone test to confirm O?

AFM > Im still on a break just popping in to see how you girls are doing

 

[pitty]
