Early 30's TTC #1

Forums New posts
Hi guys!! I'm back from our anniversary trip! It was wonderful, despite a trip to the ER!! ARGH! I had severe chest pain and thought I maybe had a blood clot from the surgery and a long car ride. After an EKG, 2 chest xrays, on IV, multiple bllod tests, a urine alanysis, and a lidocaide elixor, it was determined I'm gonna live! I'm just having a bad side effect to an antibiotic that I'm on. The doctors were very concerned about a blood clot as well, considering they're fatal! Eek! All is well though and the chest pain is subsiding.

I just wanted to drop in and say hi, I will catch up on my reading tonight and chat more. I need to stop by a few journals as well!

Hope everyone is doing ok. I know there were some unwanted visitors and I'm sorry to see that. :hugs:
 
Hi girls, I hope everybody is doing well.
I have a question, have any of you heard or tried soy isoflavone? I read is the natural clomid. I have heard of it a couple of times already and just read many success stories in this forum. So I want to get it today as im cd5, and you take it either cd1-cd5, cd3-cd7 or cd5-cd9. But my dh doesnt want me to get it :nope: and told me to just wait to see my doctor. I feel that at this point I wont lose anything by trying it, if i would just be trying 3 cycles I may wait for it to happen naturally but I feel I need to do something about it rather than just keep waiting for a miracle

Have you heard about it?
 
Hopeful, ahhh!! I hope you're okay! :hugs:

Arianne, I have not tried soy, nor do I know much about it. There's got to be a thread somewhere on here about it, though. Have you searched yet? Do you have a doc appointment scheduled? Do you think it's worth waiting to talk to a doc first?

Dodima, I'm so sorry your dh's SA did not get good results. :hugs: Are you willing to try IVF? Does your insurance help with the costs?

Mrsmax, how did you cd21 go?? When do you get the results? Did you get your dh's SA results yet?

Soleil, I'm so sorry AF got you. :hugs: That sucks. On a slightly more positive note, your post was hysterical! :rofl:

Afm, the Clomid definitely gave me hot flashes. Holy night sweats Batman!! :haha: I woke up every night literally sweating. I was so uncomfortable. However, if that's the worst that happens, and I get a :bfp: I'll take it!
 
Soleil...

We tried for about 6 months (not that long, i know) and then dh had to go thousands of miles away for training. He left in January and won't be back until June. So a big part of my crazy when he was home was trying to get pg before he left. And now that he's gone, the majority of my crazy goes towards feeling blue about not even getting to try (and missing my husband, of course).
 
Aisak, oh that must be terrible to have your dh away for that long. Is he in the military? My dh was gone, but only for 3 months, and it was terrible. I was miserable without him. We weren't ttc at that time, so at least I wasn't thinking about that too! You poor thing. :hugs:
 
Crumbs and Soleil AF for me two Im CD5 officially trying again.

Sorry Aisak about hubby being away.


I agree babies, random pregnancy announcements, parenting it's all everywhere. It gets difficult at times.

I also try not to stress about age either. That's a weight on my head. Now family's starting to ask frequently whether we are pregnant yet and urging us to try. It's heartbreaking trying to get around those conversations.

Hi

We're hoping to start IVF in a few months. I said in work to see what their policy is (started a new job and knew I wouldn't settle thinking that I'd have to delay the baby thing because of it). They said they will totally support me which is fantastic and accommodate any time off etc.
As for insurance I'm afraid Irish health insurance doesn't cover fertility treatment...... It's seen as a luxury and not a necessity!!!!! Don't get me started, children now are classed as luxury.

Hoping you are all keeping well. Spring starting, let's hope for many spring conceptions :-)

I get my results on Friday, but dh's came back on Monday and were normal. I feel very thankful and grateful that my tests have all come back clear so far, but as the dr. said it doesn't help us to work out why we aren't getting pregnant.

Dr. talked about IVF - in the UK now you get one free go, but have to be referred before your 35th birthday - mine is in October so we have to make our minds up about that in the next 3 months!! Scary.

Dodima - do you get a free round of IVF in Ireland?

Aisak - your hubby being away at anytime must be miserable, especially when try for a baby :(
 
mrsmax, I'm glad dh's results are good! Have you tried Clomid? What about IUI? There are steps to take before IVF, right?
 
Hi Ladies
Mind if I join you in this group? Not that I need more distraction from work ;)

Officially I am on CD3 today (my first AF since a MMC) but I am trying not to watch the clock too much this cycle (hoping that being more relaxed about things might be better overall)

PS - I'll be 30 in May ! agh!
 
SUSAN!!! :hi: I was so confused, because I was like ummm...you ARE in this group. :haha: I was thinking of our other thread. Oops! Welcome to the 'almost' 30 and over club! :happydance:

[/QUOTE]

No we don't get any free treatment. I was told by my health insurer that we could claim back blood tests as long as the word Fertility isn't on the invoice.... kinda hard when the clinic is Sims Fertility Clinic!!
I'm going to send off the blood tests we did and my husbands sperm tests and see what they say... can't hurt to ask.
 
Hi ladies,

Mind if I rejoin??

Just waiting for AF to arrive after MMC and hopefully back to TTC then. :flower:
 
MsJMouse - Sorry for your loss. I had a very similar thing happen to me in late January. I just got AF two days ago after my loss (it was pretty much a month later). How are you feeling?
 
Hi SMFirst - I have seen you on some of the loss support forums.

Mostly I am feeling okay - have up days and then some down days. How about you??

I am hoping AF comes sooner rather than later. Weird cause normally everyone is hoping AF won't come. :wacko:
