Onions-Im sorry they seem to have you going in circles. Maybe after your husbands SA comes back they will move forward in the process. (When my husbands SA came back and his results were like Super Sperm I couldnt help but think Lucky SOB-which doesnt make sense cause really that would just make it harder on me having to do IUI and such but still, it puts all the blame on me!) Hope they do something more for you soon, it definitely sucks doing the same thing over and over like they are expecting different results
didnt Einstein say that was the definition of insanity?
Clapper-Thats exciting! Hope that this is your cycle for a BFP!!!
Kelligal- I definitely feel your pain, I am a super optimistic person, depressed is probably one of the last words someone would use to describe me but this whole process can be emotionally and mentally crippling. There have been a lot of changes going on with my work too that have made me feel less secure on that front too, plus I got wait listed for my college program recently, and then all this TTC nonsense
.I felt like I was failing at everything, including being a failure as a woman. Its heart-wrenching to feel like I am disappointing my husband, Ive even wondered if he regrets marrying me, like he got a dud. It doesnt help when everyone around you is getting pregnant-I mean seriously, 6 good friends have had babies in the last year and its been almost two years TTC and not even one BFP. I just try to remember that I am taking the proper steps and now I have a FS who knows what to do and I just try to have faith that it will happen. Also try to remind myself that at least I am getting some positive results (good SA, good HSG, good size follicles) even if I havent got a BFP yet. Youre absolutely not alone in your struggle or in your feelings and I hope knowing that helps. Just try not to beat yourself up to much or feel guilty even though its hard. You are not useless and you are a strong woman who is trying hard and not giving up and you can be proud of that.
As for me, I did an OPK and I did get a positive
but it was positive for like 4 days in a row with a questionable 5th day positive (lighter than control but not much). I dont know
I had this happen on my third cycle of clomid in February and obviously did not get pregnant so I am nervous that the length of + OPK is indicative that my LH surges are not enough to cause the follicle to release an egg and it keeps trying but eventually the LH decreases without a successful ovulation? Ive read that lengthy LH surges can mean your body tries multiple surges
I just dont know if the surges succeeded. My FS did not order any bloodwork to check if I ovulated and if I do not get a BFP this time I would like to ask if we can look into this next time to see if I need a trigger shot or something. Its just annoying to know my follicles are maturing so well but that they may not be releasing. I def had cramping around CD12 but it was bilateral and I read that may just mean follicle maturation but the actual release of the egg should only be one sided pain so who knows at this point?!!? Im CD20 now so I have a couple weeks left to wait and wonder. Ive tried doing BBT but sometimes I wake up like 30-60 minutes before my alarm and roll over and go back to sleep and I dont know if this is effecting my temps because Im not really noticing a pattern.
Here's hoping for some good news soon! Thanks for everyone who listens and supports!
Baby dust to all you beautiful ladies!
