F.A.I.T.H. (Forsaking all, I trust Him)

[willbamom1day]

Good morning!!!

Hope all is well with everyone.

mrskc sure hope something gives for you real soon

MrsTippett keep us posted on that test - may you be blessed with a bfp

Uncertain about what steps to take - Follow me (Matthew 8:22)

MrsKCBrown: I hope you get your period soon! Praying for you!

As for myself, I'm so anxious! I'm testing tomorrow morning and I can't WAIT!! A big part of me thinks that I'm not pregnant though . About a week ago, I was experiencing a couple symptoms (super-sensitive nose namely), but for the most part they've gone away. I don't know if I was just imagining it or what . This is really our first try so I have to remind myself that it can take quite a few cycles until a . Alrighty then. Off to sleep then to test first thing in the morning! I'll let you guys know the results. G'night!

GL MrsTippett! Any news yet??
Thanks for your support!!!!

@Cheerios: No provera is a medication that brings your cycle on when it is missing and it is determined that you are not pregnant. Also metformin will make you have a regular monthly cycle if you have been taking it a month or more and regularly not missing any pills. May I ask are your pills large? Mine are and I have to take them with milk or I will gage! Also Im not nauseous much when I take it regularly. I think my body is getting use to it. Praying for you, awesome that you and DH had prayer!

Hey MrsKC
Are you´re extended release ones? I don´t know, but I tend to feel hungry very often too...and I can´t seem to eat much! That´s a horrible feeling....hungry but when I smell or see some food, I feel like gaging! Its really like having pregnancy symptoms without the pregnancy. I know that nausea isn´t supposed to be so bad esp. once your body starts to get used to it, but mine doesn´t seem to be getting used to it properly.

Thanks for praying for me! I really hope and pray too of course that my body will give me peace soon!

Hi everybody!
I just wanted to share our amazing news! I've had my US, HSG, both of our bloodwork, and DH's SA all in one week...well, today we got the results of SA...they said he has some of the best sperm they've ever seen!!! are you kidding me?! wow, praise Jesus!

All of my results look great too. we are just waiting for his bw results - but that will prob all be great.

anyway, I'm soooo happy...I'm hoping that this knowledge will help us relax more and therefore cause a bfp!

I guess this proves it really just does happen when it is supposed to...because we've timed it so well, so many times...so, my faith is feeling renewed today that we will get our bfp someday.

Hey Dahlia!
I´m sooo happy that both you and your DH are healthy and everything´s working fine! Now its just a waiting game! I´m sure it´d happen for you soon! In God´s perfect timing!

 

[cheerios]

MrsKCBrown - you´re testing tomorrow? Awesome!!! Let us know how it goes!!! Excited for you!!!!

 

[cheerios]

MRstippett - SOrry about the BFN.... hate it whenever it happens..... I know that feeling. Hugs....

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing ok! I havent heard from many of you on here.

As for me, still waiting on AF. I realized today after reading about one of my friends BFP and seeing those tests, which I am ecstatic about, that I havent held a positive test in 9 years and 9 months. My daughter will be 10 this year and I can honestly say that I have been trying to give her a brother or sister on and off for that entire time. Maybe not as much TTC driven but it has always been on my mind. Will it ever happen? I just got remarried last year and wouldnt you know it, he has fertility issues as well. (maybe men and women needed to be tested prior to marriage so you can know the heartache or either avoid it).Test after test, nothing. Im starting to think that maybe I should just give it up and be happy for everyone else. I was thinking on the way to work today, how we wait our whole lives for this and now I feel like Im being denied it. PCOS, male factor fertility issues, Im 35 and DH is 36, no AF, 12 months trying to conceive just this one and we want 4 together, just feeling like this isnt going to happen for us. Month after month, fake symptoms, and then bam cycle or in the case for this month 30 days and still no AF. Yeah Im taking provera and I have 4 more days of this crap, but Im thinking what if I take it and my cycle still doesnt come, because Ive read that happening before to other women?? Its a sunny, warm friday here in the South but it might as well be raining because thats how I feel today. Like crap!

Sorry

 

[somedaymama]

aww mrskc, don't give up! I know it feels like it is taking forever, but our time WILL come. Even if it takes your getting IUI in a few months, it is still certainly possible. The waiting can get terrible and lonely and long, but God has a plan for you. Remember the story of Hannah? She wanted a baby more than anything and she was not able to have one. After a long time of sadness, "in the course of time" she got pregnant and had Samuel. When she had him, she said "I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him."

You'll get yours eventually. I'm praying for you.

Hey girls

How are you all? Today was somehow sooo down for me, inspite of the awesome weather! We had 15 degrees and lots of sun today. I went for a walk with a girlfriend, but all I could talk about was what Metformin has been doing to my body. Poor girl had to listen to my rantings..... I feel sooo bad, but I feel like there´s nothing on my mind or bothering me these days!

Thing is, I´m disliking my job more and more. I don´t dislike my job persay, but I really don´t like the working environment. Glad that my boss has left, but the way things are handled in school are getting on my nerves after dealing with them for 2 years now.

And I always thought, ok I´ll get pregnant soon anyways, so I don´t have to work there much longer, but things have been taking way longer than I thought.

Plus, my AF has been disappearing ever since we started NTNP. It disappeared for a full 5 mths last year! And just reappeared out of the blue. Since then I had 2 AFs before it disappeared again! I find this soooo horrible, because I feel like I don´t even have a new chance every month!

Now, with my Metformin, both GP and Gynae advised me to decrease the dosage to 1,000mg but I dunno if I wanna do that because I read somewhere that 1,500mg is the min. dosage for the medication to be effective. But the extra 500mg at night is killing me.....giving me all that headaches, migraines etc..... although sometimes I think the 500mg taken after lunch gives me problems too......

I read about low GI diet, or high protein low carbohdydrates diet to decrease its effects but my gynae says that diet doesn´t play any role in increasing / decreasing side effects from Metformin....geez. I dunno what to believe anymore....

The thought of having to wait another 5 mths or longer just for AF is really killing me! Plus I asked my gynae about "provera" to bring on AF and she said she has never heard of that before. Is that the real name of the medicine? And is it available in Europe??? Or is that only available in the U.S.???

Sorry for the rantings....there´s nobody else I can talk to about this here....TTC is really such a long and lonely journey.....somehow its ok if you talk about your work / your own business - if you start one, like my hubby but if you talk about your health issues arising from TTCing, you are like ostracized....I somewhat feel I´m trusting God less, or at least that´s what I feel people think of me when I talk about my TTC problems.....

Hey MRS KCbrown - I´m sorry you feel down. I feel the exact same way as you. Waiting for AF I mean. I have been waiting for mine too. I don´t know what to say though! Just that waiting for AF sucks big time.....

 

[mrskcbrown]

@cheerios The real name for provera is medroxyprogesterone. There is also another "period maker" called prometrium. The prometrium is less harsh at making a cycle come but you still take it for 10 days and the pill is a bit larger. I know how you feel with the missing AF. Some people have gotten 2 AF's in the time I have been waiting for this one. Im trying to remain positive but Im really losing it here and dont think that its helping. Im just sick and tired of it all!

@someday: thanks for always picking me up off the floor, LOL. I try to remember Hannah but its so very hard when you are just sick and tired of waiting!

 

[Rdy2BaMom]

mrskc- for you dear!! It's okay to be upset and disappointed and to want to know why. I'm glad you feel like you can share your frustrations with us!! I know it gets frustrating to always hear "it will happen" and we all have our times of doubt and anger. I haven't been trying nearly as long as you have, and I get upset a lot. God knows your frustration, but He also knows the desire of your heart and when the best time is to fulfill that desire. I have to remind myself of that constantly. Just remember, He loves you more than you will ever know and you will get your BFP!!

As for me, still waiting on AF.

Sorry

I'm sorry you're having a bad day - I know how it feels - I've NEVER held a positive preg test - feels like I never will

Sending you hugs

I've been going through the same thing lately - was taking to dh the other day and saying how uninspired I feel by life and don't have any motivation.

I've always enjoyed my job (as much as I would enjoy any job!) but lately I just don't want to be there. It's boring me, I'm depressed and when I sat down and thought about it, the only thing I could think is that I never thought at 36, I'd still be working full time and childless. I'm just not in the place in my life that I want to be at the moment ... and it's hard ... and it's almost like I'm resenting my job for it

I can understand you all's frustration but you will probably have to make an aggressive change so that you can be happy in your careers. I know what its like to work a job you hate!!! I worked for Walgreens as a manager for almost 7 yrs and I hated it. I use to sit at our safe and cry as I counted the money at night. This was when I was living in Chicago. Eventually I was fired from that position but it was such a blessing in disguise because it propelled me to move from my hometown of Chicago to Mississippi and teach! BTW, I have NO family here but my husband and daughter, EVERYONE lives in Chicago. Of course I could have taught in Chicago but I got the job in Memphis and a few months later I just moved.

I have been living here for 4 yrs now and I met my husband here 2 yrs ago. I never would have met him living in Chicago.

So I said all of that to say that you may have to do something unordinary to get back to your ordinary, to give you that pizazz again. Trust God, He wont lead you the wrong way. Habakkuk, says "write the vision and make it plain". You may need to create a vision board and post it on the wall somewhere in your house to keep you focused on your new goals. GL and love and blessings coming your way!!!
