Jchic, I know this is SO hard, and SO frustrating waiting for that BFP, and I know what it feels like to feel like there MUST be something wrong (with us, our our husbands), for it not to be happening. I so know that feeling.
That said, I tend to agree with your hubby, in that you are young and healthy, and it's not been *that* long yet, although I know it feels like an eternity. I know all of us expect(ed) it to happen right away, or at least within a few months, and when it doesn't it throws us all for a loop. Unfortunately, I really do think it takes time for most people - people just don't run around telling you how long it took for them, or announcing every month they are NOT pregnant. All we hear about are the pregnancy announcements, so it just feels like everyone is falling pregnant at the drop of a hat and not us. But we don't know how long it took - whether they were trying or not. I have friends that were NTNP, and it took years (like 2-3 years) before a BFP. That's not to scare you - because since we are actively trying, it will likely be a lot sooner. But my point is that it DOES happen, but we just don't hear about the months that go by for women where they are not pregnant. I also found out from a friend who I think of as being super fertile (3 young kids) that it took her 8 months with the first, and 7 months with the second. This is month 5 for you right? So considering that you are 30 (which is still young in my book), I would really wait a few more months before going the IVF route. Even in my case (34!), I plan on waiting a year before trying it, unless they discover that we really will need it to get pregnant. At my fertility appointment next week, I want to find out if there's anything obvious wrong that we can treat (thyroid problem, progesterone problem etc.). If there is NOTHING wrong with us, then I plan on giving it at least 8 months before trying IUI or IVF. That's just me, and I'm not trying to say that's what you should do, because we are all different. But I guess what I'm saying is that if 80-90% of people get pregnant within 1 year, and you have some time on your side, I might give it a little longer? I mean, you could go through all this intervention which is $$ and not pleasant, and yes - maybe you'll get pregnant a month or two faster, but what if you would've gotten pregnant on your own next month? I also think maybe you need to give the thyroid meds a little while to take effect? Whatever you and DH decide, I completely support you! You have to feel good about your action plan, and I think the most important thing is that 1. You have a husband who loves you, 2. You have a doc who is willing to be as aggressive as you want and 3. You have lots of options at your disposal. Now you just have to decide when you want to pursue these things. xxoo We WILL get those BFPs Jchic, I promise!
Better than I thought they'd turn out, I hate it when you see things that look nothing like what they're supposed to be, so was a little dubious about doing them, but I'm glad I did!
shows hun.
