I am not sure. I had an internal scan and ultrasound which all came back looking great, nice and clear. DH SA came back and they are perfect. All my bloods for 2yrs came back as ovulating so on paper we are great it's just not meeting and attaching so he said cause if my age (36.5) and the time of trying he wanted to do lap and insert dye to see if my tubes were blocked. He said this was the only way to check it??? I will be off work 3 days (boss is going to love that) and then when that comes back we move to option 1 - clear tubes do IUI or option 2 - blocked tubes do IVF. I really was just so convinced I would see a positive test and hoping and praying to do it on my own (I know I am not out yet till witch arrives) but it's still upsetting

Hi Kiwi,

A lap involves surgery - cutting into your abdomen & then doing the test that way. It's how they diagnose/remove endometriosis. www.webmd.com/infertility-and-reproduction/guide/laparoscopic-surgery-for-endometriosis
Whereas a HSG they pump the dye into your tubes internally (no cutting) & then xray to see if there are any problems with the tubes. No surgery=no recover time. www.webmd.com/infertility-and-reproduction/guide/hysterosalpingogram-21590

Just wondered why the Doc would suggest the more invasive test first.
Surgery is my greatest fear.... :flower:
 
it's so good to be on here and have advice from others. Kiwi - now you will know what to ask about. this ttc means learning something new every day!
 
2mums - did the spotting stop? I am all fingers and toes crossed here hUn. I know they say it can be normal - in fact I had a massive bleed at 12 weeks (right through my clothes) with Harrison, but it is scary as hell anyway.
Kiwi - they are also crossed for you love that you don't need any of that invasive sounding stuff. Hugs xo

thank you Maddy. I will get onto my doctor (GP) on monday and see if she can recommend that (hsg) rather than the lap. It was the fertility consultant that told me about lap). I was really upset afterwards at the thought of all the processes (right up to IVF) and I guess I am still hoping it can be done. Maybe I scared my body that it will just happen naturally :) LOL.

But has anyone ever actually heard of anyone getting a false negative? I know I am probably clutching at straws here and AF will turn up either this afternoon or tomorrow but I was just wondering. I have read all the articles on google about it but I haven't heard of an actual person getting this. I guess my temps are the confusing sign as I should be below the red line by now seeing i am due??? I forgot to test this morning as thermometer is still packed (1st time all month - :jo: will probably cane me LOL) but it still is confusing me as to why its not low.
 
2woohoo- yeah, stopped, only noticed this morning with fmu, and when i wiped a few times, but then gone. so ty, our FX and ToesX too!! xx

kiwi- hope they can do the least invasive one, but dont be worried if you have to do the other one, i was in talks to the DR to that too, to rule out or find endometriosis, its completely 'routine' and very little complications, just a bit more time in the hospital than the other. Heard of heaps of negatives too, keep positive!!!! FX for you!!

edit : i've heard of heaps of false negatives that turn to positive. i think there is a thread on it here
 
Kiwi - false negatives would just be when you are actually pregnant, but you don't have enough hormone to detect in your urine yet. I would stick with testing if I were you, hopefully you will get your positive soon! That witch better stay away!!!

Loop - did the witch stay away from you today?!?

really excited to see what tomorrow brings for everyone! We are so overdue, someone needs a BFP c'mon girlies!!! xxxxx
