Appt Today

[kaye]

Hi

well finally my follow up appointment with gynae is today to discuss my HSG results (from back in May, they kept cancelling appts)

I am looking forward to it, but so depressed recently and i was meant to lose weight and i just havent. I have fully just been comfort eating to make me feel better, which then makes me feel worse so i eat some more.

Wish i could just feel good for change

it didn't go well.

Doctor said my tubes are clear but some blood results low on progesterone so not always ovulating. She said they will not do anything till i get my bmi down to 30 and she wll not budge on that. She said it will at least take me a year (4 stone i need to lose) and if i do it, then go back to my own gp and get re referred and start all over again.

Gutted and feel so shit! i know alot of you might just say well lose the weight, but its not always that easy, its going to be a really long hard struggle and iam sick of waiting for a baby now

oh love I'm sorry it went badly .

I completely understand how you feel I would probably need to loose 3-4 stone to get a BMI under 30 and like you say when LTTC it's easier said then done.

I have had a low progesterone but i know I ovulate as I do opks and temp -I'm trying acupuncture it hasn't got my a but my cycle is much more normal and my PMT is much better. I also take vit b complex and vitex (from AF till ov) they are supposed to help with low progesterone. Do you research hunny before you take anything to make sure it's right for you.

Did you have your prog checked 7dpo? I think it's useful to have more than one test to check it wasn't an odd ovulatory cycle.

I hope you get over this kick in the teeth and get back on it soon
Be nice to yourself (+ I might get shot down in flames for saying this if you need a huge chocolate bar tonight have it, you've had an upsetting day).

Ah sorry to hear about your struggle, I am also a low progesterone sufferer!

Have you thought about hynotherapy or an alternative way of losing weight. Sometimes training the mind can help. I realise how difficult it must be because food is so comforting when you're going through this ttc battle, i must admit i've put on a few pounds.

Sending you good luck wishes xx

babydust to you ladies xxx thanks for your kind words.

i might look into hypnotherapy, its worth a try. My biggest battle is to stop ttc taking over my whole life i think

sorry it did not go well. The waiting has been so frustrating, I waited 8 months for clomid. It must be so awful to be told to go away and starve yourself for a year, I mean the LTTC leaves you feeling so empty and lonely that you just need something.

Weight can hinder ovulation though, and maybe loosing it will make you O've better and you won't need to go back to the nasty DR?? I think you really have no choice but to try and loose it. My SIL lost hers through liter life, maybe you could try something like that, on the positive side this is something that you can fix... i will not say something you can easily fix because it isn't its going to be a tough long road, but it can be done and it will be well worth it.

I agree with the above post, treat yourself to something this evening and start the diet when you are feeling stronger.

Good luck and lots of baby dust...

Hi Ladies

Well i had a good cry and ready to get back on track to changing my life through diet and excercise. We booked a holiday too couple of weeks ago, so i can aim for that which is in May.
I want a stone off for xmas and i am motivated more than ever. Weight will not ruin my chances. I have given up the fags so only this one thing to change and then hopefully i will be rewarded with a BFP.

HUGE thanks to you ladies who always make me feel better xxxxx

Glad you're feeling better today and more positive- well done you! A holiday is a great idea it gives you something to look forward to. Good luck with the exercise and healthy eating -you can do it!

I'm following your example and have been to the gym this morning! This time next year we'll be fit and pregnant I'm sure

Look after yourself
