First fertility appointment

Forums New posts
We'll see - not expecting bfp.

To be honest the thought of being pregnant now or having a child seems more and more distant and getting harder to imagine now!!!! Think it's a way of your body prepping you for the worst case scenario!
 
Yes negative too! But officially nit due til the 14th solutions like my body is holding out til then as nothing more has happened spotting wise!
 
Definitely out for me too. But thank God as couldn't cope with these boobs any longer - so relieved to get rid of the pain and swolleness of them for another month. Plus as I have quite a small bleed may mean come the 14th can have a bit of fun again!
Plus the nurse told him we need to dtd every other day - so was glad that was mentioned, so going to make sure that we do that esp leading up to the fertile period. Ad plus I just want to enjoy each other before it gets all clinical, test tubes, Petri dishes etc.

We will get all are reports by 7th March so their is a long wait....:cry: GL to you too for the results .......:hugs:
 
Girls the time soon zooms by honestly!

're the bloods see what I said a few comments above- make sure that the bloods a tee e done on the right days. Day 21 are based on you having a 28 day cycle, if you are shorter or longer that 21 day needs to be adapted, as it maybe taken too soon or late. Which is what happened to me. I have a 24-26 day cycle so my 21 day bloods should've been taken around day 17-18 - my bloods came back as 20, so really under but the nurse said that's probably due to it bring taken too late for my cycle!

But welcome to our little group, each of us so far seem to have different issues so good to have lots of things covered!
 
Got my appt at the clinic again tomorrow for FSH and AMH (hormone testing and internal scan) also blood tests for HIV, hep b & C.
The need these doing on cycle days 2-5 - so just on day three now, so called yesterday and they fitted me in tomorrrow.
Then consulation again on the 18th March to start the injections/nasal spray to start/stop my cycles.
It's zooming along now!

Altho now the issue of getting the hubby to get his bloods done, as he can;t come with me tomorrow for my tests due to prior committments, and doesn;t like having needles put into his arm - needless to say he is not getting any sympathy from me on that front after all i'll have to go through! - not before he had a go that these tests didn't fit with his shifts at work - so i snapped back that i was not waiting for months for me to get tested just so it fits in with his shifts or when he is off, or when it suited him! Least i can go myself and know how i am looking inside etc. But was thinking it's likely to be a bit messy surely as i'll be mid bleed - oh well.....
 
Let me know how it goes. My appt is 18th march too but that's to see what wer doing next and review all tests. U will know if ur internal is ok immediately. Xx
 
The lady didnt tell me about my internal scan......until I got annoyed with when we started asking me if my periods were regular over and over!! She was muttering a lot too which was really irritating me so I told her so!!! :0) hope all you ladies get some answers soon xxx
 
All my internal scans were good - everything looks to be in good working order!

Hubby got to have his bloods done - then just to sit and wait until our appt on the 18th March to hopefully start things.

Told everyone at work in my dept, they were all interested in what happens and they keep telling me of success stories at the same clinic - guy in my dept had icsi and successful on first go!
 
pcsoph2890, sounds like you're going to a really good clinic, gl!
 
had an appointment with FS yesterday, I had all my vitals done, they told m to lose a bit of weight but i'm not a concern to them. Hubby has 4 lots of bloods done and goes back on 5th march for a details SA.
In the meantime we should receive a appointment for urology within 6-8 weeks.
Consultant was very nice but i ave to say she didnt seem too worried and said second SA is very important. I'm not letting that allow me to think the result will be different. She advised us there is no wait for IVF but the tests done by Urology are hugely in demand and the wait for any "op" for sperm retrieval is 6-9 month after we have been to urology
most shocking part was i we get to that stage and there i no sperm found at all there are no donors and the average wait for one is 24 months!!!! apparently since the law changed in 2005 no one i donating.
Hubby asked about using a known "donor" and although she didn't brush it off completely she said its not a common thing to do???

overall we know the ball is rolling but i those timescales are right this is going to be a long miserable waiting game

any ideas/suggestions? xxx
 
Sorry bit confused, do you know there is no sperm, or are you just thinking worst case scenario?

Just wait until the results come back, it only takes them to find one swimmer for ivf to work as you'd go to icsi method.....

My advice wait til all the results are back, speak the the doctors and see what the next steps are - it's all too easy to get carried away with the what ifs, and maybes when going through this. You need hard facts once they are known then you know what direction specifically you as a couple need to go Dow !
 
Hi ladies could you give me some advice? We have been ttc since April 2011 and last summer went to the GP as after 15 months we hadnt conceived. DH had an SA done which was fine and i had 2 cd 21 blood tests done to prove i ovulate which it seems i regularly do. So GP referred us to the fertility clinic. Whilst on the waiting list we managed to conceive after 19 months ttc. Unfortunately i had a mc at 6 weeks and it was almost the next day after the mc a letter came from the hospital to say i had an appt with the fertility clinic. I spoke to the GP about it and he advised to postpone the appt. We went today for our appt and they have referred us back to the GP. I do try to take the fact that i managed to get a bfp a sign i can get pg but because we have been pg they do not want to do anymore tests at this time and to give it another year! We have been ttc for 2 years next month and it seems as if i have to wait another year before i can get any help. They were reassuring that they see no reason why we couldnt have a baby naturally but after nearly two years i am feeling very frustrated and depressed about it. I dont really know what to do next i feel that i am in limbo.
 
Hi. I wouldn't accept that. I really wouldn't.
I know how u feel with the disappointment. We haven't had a bfp so can't relate on that. U need to speak to ur go again and say that u need referring again that waiting another 18 months for a bfp isn't right. I don't really know what else I can say but go back.
Gp and FS have both been good with us so far fingers crossed. X
