Hahaha no baby yet, that's actually a picture of me when I was a baby! It's the closest thing I can get to a picture of my own at the moment!

Hope you are all doing well. I've been by to read but haven't commented much lately. I am rooting for you though and hope you all get your soon!!

afm I have been diagnosed with gestational diabetes but it's extremely mild, I barely failed the test, and I've gone from testing my blood sugar from 4x a day to 2x a day because my numbers are so good. So glad that I don't have to take medication for it or worry about the other possible complications because my blood sugar is under control.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Hakuna! How cute were you! It doesn't particularly look like an old pic! Sorry to hear about your diabetes but glad it's just mild.

Jogu, so sorry about your test results hun . But hopefully now they know what's wrong they can get on treating it & get you your !

Regal, thinking of you hun and at your DH and his big balls!!

lol yeah dh is a funny one. Sorry you had a tough cycle. Sometimes just letting it all out makes things feel better. Glad you're feeling a bit better.

Hi Ladies

RegalPeas - love your avitar - how gorgeous. And I was at your hubby and his big balls.

AFM: CD25 still no ovulation. This has not happened before on a month I have bothered to temp - thats not to say it hasn't happened on a month I haven't bothered to temp and just didnt know ie last month. One upside to this is it will hopefully mean AF is late so I won't have to deal with it on my holiday.

My DH is currently on a health kick and has lost a heap of weight (around 17kgs in the last few months - no idea what that is in pounds sorry) which is great cause hopefully that means his are getting healthy as well (here's hoping!!).

Happy Easter everyone as I am not likely to be online in the next few days/week.

Thanks! Also, Congrats to your hubby! That's dedication Also sorry about the fibroid. I know all too well the feeling, but if they said it was small it most likely will not cause any problems. If so they would have told you, I believe.Wishing you the best. Exciting times ahead. Happy Easter to you too!

ohh RP...sorry that i missed thankin you in my last post...so here I am...thank you so much for the warm welcome...gosh this waitin business is a killer ya...first you wait to ovulate, then you wait either for a BFP or AF and now I am waitin for my test results and docs appointment so that we can get started with the medication/treatment....

 

[mrsmax]

jogu - sorry to hear about your test results but hopefully they answer some questions and can help you get your BFP.

I agree re the waiting - it is soooo hard.

Having a down day today. Feel like my friends (with babies) are slipping away and moving on without me. I keep thinking I will be able to reconnect once I am pregnant - but I have been thinking that for nearly 2 years

Still, first progress scan is just around the corner now. I am so scared of it cause of my low AMH, but at least then I will know what I am working with. It will either confirm my worse fears or be a relief....

It is a holiday here in the UK today so trying to make the most of it but the rain is awful!! What is everyone else up to?

 

[MrsPTTC]

mrsmax - I feel exactly the same about my friends. I feel completely left out. I don't hear from them that much now they have LO's & I know they have busy lives now & their LO's are their priority, but surely they've time for some girlie time .

Well we are off all week, supposed to be doing the garden, which is going to be fun in all this . I'm knackered, my 12 hour drinking marathon yesterday has taken it out of me! I was a good girl though and drank water half way through! Sooo tired x

[mrsmax]

Just flitting in before work - thanks for the support ladies and Jogu - good luck with your results today.

 

[Regalpeas]

Jogu-Np & good luck with your testing fx fx

MrsMax-I hope you are feeling much better. I totally understand where you are coming from. Hang in there. This whole process takes guts and perseverance all of which you have displayed time and time again. Hang in there. Your scans are coming which will bring you closer to your goals. Your time is coming soon.

MrsPttc-Enjoy your week off!!!

 

[jogu07]

MrsMax - Good Luck for your scan...hope everything goes well for you...fingers crossed...!!!

RP - Thanx...

AFM - My results have been normal except the Prolactin level which is a little on the higher side, dont know what that means, however the doc has precribed medicines only for 2 weeks and that too 1 a week so only 2 tabs for 2 weeks...wants me to reduce weight before going for follicle monitoring....!! Adjusted dose for thyroid...gosg, it dint go as I expected...she did not bother if I was ovulating or not...that was a turn off...!!! guess should take a second opinion, what say ladies...??

 

[MrsPTTC]

Hmmm.. jogu, so they didn't even check for ovulation?? Weird! I've no idea how important prolactin is, or even what it does, sorry I'm not much help! X

 

[MrsPTTC]

I do however recall my blood tests & did get my prolactin checked so it seems to be the done thing x

MrsPTTC - I know it is very strange and thinkin of changin my gynaec, what say?

 

[MrsPTTC]

Looking at your previous post are you much over weight? I know they won't prescribe clomid if your bmi is over a certain level, but would have thought they'd at least test your progesterone for ovulation! Easier than follicle tracking! If it turns out you are ovulating at least they can rule that out. Bloody Dr's, can't stand my FS, on one hand I'm really looking forward to the appointment in 2 weeks but on the other hand I really don't want to see the d*ck! So glad DH is coming with me. Before you change gynae I'd ask for ov to be checked & if they say no then go to someone else! GL! x

 

[mrsmax]

Jogu - I agree with MrsP - can you call and ask them about it. They mau have their reasons or they may just be rubbish - but worth finding out before moving clinic. I have heard of Prolactin - I think Rosa's was high?

Had my first progres scan at Day 7 of stimmming this morning and considering my low AMH I am delighted. I have 13 follies (maybe a few more as my ovary was hiding). 7 of them are more thn 10mm. My lining is 8.7. The nurses were very pleased. They have aksed me to come in with a full bladder on Friday so they can see if there are any others hiding with my ovary!!! I was so scared I wouldnt respond to the drugs with my low AMH that today I feel like a little milestone has been crossed. I guess there arent tons of follies, but I am pleased

 

[rosababy]

Mrsmax, good memory! I did have high prolactin on my first round of ivf. The nurse called the day before my beta and said that it was high, as well as my estrogen, and that it COULD be a sign of pregnancy. I guess prolactin gets higher to produce breast milk or something, but in my case it was just because of the meds. I was put on meds and it was fine.

mrsmax (part 2), EXCELLENT news on your follies!! That's more than I had! You're on your way!! How's everything going with the meds and stuff? When is retrieval?

 

[rosababy]

Oh. Look at the ticker, Rosa. 6 day!! That's so exciting! Make sure you're drinking lots of water.

 

[hopefulmama2b]

MRS MAX!!!!!! I love reading about your good progress!!!! Glad to hear that your low AMH doesn't seem to be affecting you! One more week!
