Anyone NATURAL ttc #1 for 2 years, zero BFP and all results good, no health issues?

[laustiredttc]

i know i was thinking the same thing the other day. esp when someone was like oh i have been trying for 3 months, i'm so tired of it all. I was like, 'wtf, seriously, just hope that you dont have to go on this journey for years then you will really know what patience is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[g_and_t]

I know it really annoys me too... Even the ones that say 6 months.... Thats not a long time!! Not to mention the tests and procedures we've all been through...

Im currently on Knickerwatch... Af due any day now... Altho i don't have any pre af signs... My bbs are normally sore by now... Nothing! I really don't want to hope but i cant help it. So many people say they had no signs... Or had more signs the months they werent preg...

Hey ho fingers crossed she doesn't show....

 

[laustiredttc]

hey gnt keeping fx for ya hun. never lose the hope huni. keep us updated

 

[MalaMae]

Fingers crossed for no AF!!

My sister-in-law is big on astrology and she told me apparently in October something changed (Saturn did something- changed houses or something) and things will get better now and long awaited changes will happen.
Let's see that! I guess any hope is good hope!?

Well af arrived today... Grrrrrrr..... I called the hospital and told them to make sure im on the cancellation list now as im def not preg and she seemed happier now that af is def here... So she said i can expect a call any day from Monday... I don't care how close to xmas it is.. I just want it done... Cos once thats done i go on the wait list for iui...

Hi Ladies, just an update and a correction to my previous post. I had an endometrial biopsy which was normal, not a cervical biopsy.

In October, I had my first IUI which was not successful. I was devastated and angry so I went back to my doctor and insisted on a laparoscopy to rule out endometriosis for sure. Since I'm paying for my infertility treatments out of pocket, I didn't want to proceed with another IUI or IVF if I didn't even have a chance because of endometriosis.

Yesterday, I had my laparoscopy and my doctor removed mild endometriosis. I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for a BFP in 2013. My plan is to try naturally for a few months before IUI #2.

My prayers are with all of you ladies. Keep your chin up.

 

[popchick75]

So glad to hear it wasn't something worse! Maybe removing the endometriosis will be enough for you to get your BFP!

Im a youngen, bee trying for 2.5 years. Nothing wrong with hubby. And apprently they say I have a blocked left tube, but didnt tell me for sure.
I been dianosed with hypothyroidism because my thyroid was slighly low. And spossibly low hormones.

Well ,I had 2 ultrasounds, countless day 3 and 21 blood tests, al lcome good since \im on Clomid now and having "a regular cycle". My first year i only had 2-3 cycles. i even had an hsg done.No PCOS, and im pretty sure for endo they would see it on the ultrasound, I even did an internal as well.

i am now reffered to the specialist, I hope they can come up with something else. If i have to do the laproscopy I will. Anything that can be done to find my problem I welcome it.

March is my appointment, and August will be 3 years.

hey gnt sorry wasnt here to wish you luck hun, just moved house so things are crazy right now. How did i go huni? how are you feeling? did you get your results right after it or do you have to wait?

 

[laustiredttc]

malamae, i believe in the whole astrology thing so that has made me feel more hopeful

afm cd12, just waiting to O. Really really really want it to be this month soooooooooooooo much

 

[g_and_t]

Hiya huni.... don't worry it was all so last minute im still in shock that its over...

they did a hysteroscopy as well as the lap and dye... im feeling quite sore today and last night was no picnic... i was fine in the afternoon but the pain in my ribs/diaphragm and right shoulder from the gas kicked in later on in the evening and i was in tears before going to bed.... whatever they gave me in hospital must've worn off by then... it came and went like cramp.... one min i'd be fine then it would come back... my stitches and tummy oddly enough were fine yesterday but today i feel sore all over.... so i've had some brekkie and taken my meds and i'm just relaxing in bed now.... my mom has come over to help me for a few days... which is nice cos it means DB doesn't have to take time off as well... she's been a gem!

they didn't find anything.... i have a 3 cm fibroid which before hand she said might be a factor if its protruding into the cavity... but afterwards she said it wasn't at all so that's def not it... and they saw a tiny amount of endo but again she said it was so tiny they didn't even bother touching it and said it wouldn't be a contributing factor...

so i guess i should be grateful but at same time i still dont have answers...

the next step now is to wait for a letter to go back and see consultant and then we will go on waiting list for IUI. I am due to ov end of next week and the doc said we can get back to action once the bleeding stops so maybe we'll get lucky before then. hee hee fingers crossed...

im so glad its one more hurdle out the way and hopefully one step closer to our baby...

for all the ladies out there going for the lap.... i know its hard to believe when people say dont worry but really it was a lot better than i expected.... i was scared about how id feel when i woke up.... but it was fine... the anesthetic was fast so i was only in the theater for abut 2 mins before i was knocked out..... they got the cannula (?) in my hand in seconds and then my oxygen mask as on and i was gone... and then when i woke i didnt feel sore or sick or anything... just groggy as hell... they wheeled me back to my bay and gave me tea and water straight away which was great as my throat was sore and dry.... and the grogginess faded quite fast... i didn't feel uncomfortable at all and i was sitting up after about an hour and then they stuck me in an arm chair with the drip til i was up to having a wee.... then they let me get changed into my normal clothes and sat in the arm chair reading a book til DB came to get me... i went into theatre at 10.15 and went home at 2.30.... great!
yes its sore today but is to be expected... as long as you rest and take it easy you'll be fine...

I have a question....

Can you see endo or adhesions on an ultrasound? I've heard many different things...

If it is bad enough, would they either be able to tell or at least have suspicions based on internal ultrasounds? I asked my dr this week if he thought a lap would be a good idea and he advised against it.

 

[g_and_t]

I had an HSG and a trans vaginal ultrasound before this which came up clear but they said the lap gives more of a 360 view of everything... I went for it just to rule everything out before going down the Iui route..

 

[laustiredttc]

ah Gnt great to hear everything went well. I wish i would have caught you before you went in as sucking polo mints gets rid of the pain in the shouder from the gas, thats the advice i was given. As long as your restingnow hun thats the main thing. Also dont forget your chances of conceiving increase after the op so fx huni you get your this month

 

[g_and_t]

Tks hun... I do recall you telling me about the polos and i got some but it didn't help me! I just had to ride it out in the end... Not very nice is it...
Feeling better today... Just tender... Xxx

 

[laustiredttc]

Ah bless sorry huni. I remember the feeling tender part. Feels as though, been put through a two hour abs class lol. Just rest up hun. Took me about a week to feel pretty much back to normal so by the time xmas comes you should be right as rain

 

[laustiredttc]

ps i must admit i think i overdosed on the polo mints so thats prob why lol
