Anyone trying for #2 around cd 4?

[aidensmommy1]

I am ttc #2 and am only working with one tube and ovary this time around with the remaining one having some scar tissue damage. Are there any foods/vitamins anyone could recommend from personal experience that I could try to help tubular function until I can get in with my doctor next month? I cannot sit here and do nothing for a little over a month, I have to still try. I have very low odds and am willing to try anything before I try ivf treatment. I also am wondering if anyone from new Hampshire has had ivf treatment and if they're insurance covered and if so, what kind of insurance? I'm praying my insur will cover since my infertility issues are due to uncontrollable medical conditions. If anyone out there can help me with either the vitamin question or the ivf treatment info it'd be much appreciated! Thank you! Baby dust to all!

I don't know about vitamins and such but wanted to give you some hope. My good friend had secondary infertility and had two losses. During the first loss she also lost her left ovary. She since has given birth to 2 beautiful baby girls. It came down to ovulation with her, not her lack of an Ovary. l Hope you get some answers and get your bfp soon!

Hi to the new girls.
Fleur- i would deffo say something to your MIL.Just casually mention that she has to remember to shut the baby gate and that eyes must be kept on DD at all times.You dont want to be worrying yourself sick when you are away from her,and a gentle reminder might be all that she needs.
Im am officially in the TWW! 3DPO.I ovulated on CD24,its not ideal but at least its ovulation!my first cycle off the pill was 40 days so its looking like its something similar this time round.We DTD the day before OV which was OH bday,so fingers crossed
Have you tested yet Fleur?

 

[Fleur29]

Dogtanian - you're right. I think I will, or maybe get dh to say it. Mil hates confrontation so will really be upset by it but my priority is dd! Imagine if it happened again and she hurt herself and I hadn't said anything...

No af yet but could be any time as def feeling pretty crampy. Sure the tp was a bit brown this morning...I'm 12 dpo today (cd31) and although I think I have a short-ish lp, I wouldn't say I am late if af doesn't show up for another few days...

Dogtanian - hope the 2ww goes quickly!!!! Ovulating on cd24 is not so bad, ESP if you have long cycles although then it just drags to ovulation time doesn't it! I ovulate on cd19 so pretty late too!

Good luck everyone! X

You're not far behind me Braven! Do you have a TTC plan?

Aidensmummy - Im not good with supplements etc. but a good pre-natal vitamin is vital. I also plan on eating blueberries (all berries are great for conceiving) to keep my vitamin e levels high and food rich in zinc for healthy eggs. Good luck xx

No plan really... Temping, going to buy some opks shortly. We tendto dtd every other day as I get towards my fertile time. Hoping that works. Did the last time lol

Fleur - I would def mention to mil about the stair gate. I agree F should be her priority and I think sometimes anyone who isn't used o having a lo around can forget how quick
Y they can get up to mischief! It might feel awkward but if you don't & anything happens you'll never georgie yourself so be clear hun.

Also I've had hfm and so has hubby when our F had it recently, it's horrible! I hope you are all ok soon. Fingers crossed af doesn't appear hun, it's sounding promising!! Xx

Dog - happy tww! Glad you oved, hope the two weeks speeds by for you xx

So yes we filled the penis beaker Tuesday night ba ha ha ha and it's ready for tonight too ;-) bring on the baby making!!

Welcome to the new ladies!

Aidensmommy, I only have 1 ovary as I had a large tumour on the other 10 years ago and had it removed. They say your remixing ovary takes over and releases an egg every month and it was true for me I think as I fell pregnant easily the irsy ie. good luck to you.

I hope I haven't missed replying too much, rushing as I'm off for my shower! Night ladies xxx

 

[Mrs W 11]

Sorry about my awful typing!! Georgie should read forgive!!! X

 

[Fleur29]

Haha mrs w - your typos made me chuckle!!! I got what you meant

That's so clever re your remaining ovary, I hope the same happens for you aidensmommy.

Mrs w yes think I will be getting dh to say something. It's easy to be forgetful I know but you just have to be more vigilant! The gate is there for a reason!!!

Hope your penis dunking want well!!!! Haha!! I worry that others don't know what we are on about...!! Google it ladies, if you need a chuckle!

Af not shown up so I don't know what's going on. I will be 13dpo tomorrow and cd32. The thing is, I just don't know really what my 'normal cycle' is. On the pill it was 28 days, and when ttc my dd and the first couple of months ttc #2 it was 27 days but then last month was 30 days so I feel like it could just keep getting longer so trying not to read anything into the current AWOL-ness of af and keep my expectations low. Anyway we will see! I'll keep you posted on knicker watch not gonna test yet, I hate hate hate seeing bfn!

Well we found out today our little bean stopped growing.

I was prescribed cytotec to get the miscarriage going. We are having one brutal year.

 

[Fleur29]

Oh my god castaway, I'm so so sorry to hear that. You don't deserve this. Life can be so unfair. I hope you have lots of folk around you looking after you. Please take care, talk to us if you need to. Lots and lots of huge hugs xx

 

[NotNic]

Thanks ladies, I am just trying to get through and by being practical is the only way I know how. I am taking the pills tonight and pray they work....it appears the baby never grew so it looks like I will only be passing a sac. I was pondering it all and I just had surgery (around when we conceived) and I was on aspirin. I know it is suppose to make it harder for the conception to occur, I am wondering if it made it so the baby didn't grow. The doctor did tell me after we are cleared that everything is gone I can try again next month (in his words right away). I pondered it and think what the heck...why not be pregnant for almost 2 years straight We really want a child and this is what needs to be done. It is funny b/c I think my husband is now realizing how hard this is and said to me, "If you don't want to wait to long to try again for #2 I will understand". God bless his heart, he knows I am upset and he just wants me to be happy.... At this point I want to concentrate on bringing home our baby then work on a second lol I need a break after a baby though, I can tell you that!

With that being said I am breaking out the CBFM as soon as my levels are down. I have a blood test on November 5th to see where I am at. Hoping that I get back to normal quickly....I know after delivering Christopher I had my period 5 weeks 1 day....hoping it comes quicker this time around

Thanks for thinking of me girls!

 

[Fleur29]

Sometimes I think just dealing with the practicalities is the only way to get through it so can totally understand where you're coming from! Castaway, I'm still in shock - I can't believe this has been thrown at you after everything else.

It's really great that the doctor said you can try again ASAP - and you know you are super fertile so hopefully will fall again very easily with a sticky beautiful bean. I honestly can't think of anyone who deserves it more. I'm so glad your hubby is supporting you, sounds like you are a very strong couple and you will get through this.

I'm keeping everything crossed that the next couple of weeks go smoothly for you and then you get your bfp ASAP. I know so many people who have got a sticky bean the month after miscarriage so I am keeping everything crossed and hoping and praying that happens to you too.

Please be kind to yourself. More fleur virtual hugs coming your way xxxxxxx

 

[Twinks]

Oh my goodness Castaway I'm so so sorry. Sending u a great big hug. I hope you have a fab dh and family to support you hun. Like Fleur said, life can be cruel sometimes. Big hugs again hun and we're all here for you to chat to if you need to xxxx

 

[Sparky8795]

So sorry for your loss Castaway.

 

[Dogtanian]

Castaway,im so sorry to hear your sad news.
Ive got nothing but admiration for the way you have dealt with all you have been through,you are going to make a fantastic mummy.
If you are ready i agree with the doc that you should start trying asap.
Wishing you all the luck in the world

 

[Braven05]

I'm new to this thread but I just wanted to say how sorry I am castaway. Hugs sent your way

 

[Fleur29]

Castaway - how are you today? You're very much in my thoughts xx

 

[CastawayBride]

Hi all feeling much better today, but exhausted! It will be a couch day for sure!

The pills worked, I go tomorrow to be checked to make sure everything came out. Doctor said I should ovulate in 2 weeks so I should be able to try again next month. Kind of crazy to be starting all over...I look forward to having a baby but pregnancy is very hard when you have been pregnant for years.

Hoping you ladies are doing well..thanks for thinking of me!
