Congrats Babykiser!

Babee - Sorry about AF getting you.


AFM - Tonight is my last dose of soy, and O should be 9 days or less away, I hope. I've got to go pick up my opks so I can start them tomorrow or thursday. I also called my doctor's office this morning and they said someone would call me back. I probably wont hear anything until this afternoon. If they dont call, I'm definitely going up there tomorrow.

 

[Rin731]

Babee- So sorry.

Have you tested today? Are you sure it's ?

 

[autigers55]

Well, I just heard back from my doctor's office and I swear I'm more confused now than I was before. The whole point of the phone call was supposed to be about my lp only being 11 days and how they wanted it a little bit longer. Well, the nurse told me everything is looking good and I should expect to O anywhere from cd12-14 based on my last few cycles, and that everything else is fine, it's just we didn't time it right. I was so not expecting a phone call like that, I was expecting to hear that the doctor wanted to put me on progesterone to help lengthen my lp. I also know for a fact DH and I timed it just right bc we bd 2days before O, then 1 day before, on O day and the day after O. So that cannot be the problem. They want me to call them back if I don't get pregnant this cycle, but I'm not going to call them back until I find out I am pregnant. So, I guess I'm on my own and the only support I have is from DH and on here.

autigers - even if you time everything perfectly it can still take a year to get pregnant. IVF where they're putting a fertilised egg exactly where it needs to go is still only 30% successful. So tbh theres every chance that you could get pregnant on your own. Your LP is on the short side but they usually only worry if it's less than 10 days. I'm not sure why you're not going to go back for the help they're offering it?

I know it can take a while to get pregnant, but I've been trying for 22 months with hardly any support from my doctor's office. The reason I'm choosing not to go back until I get pregnant is bc I know they are not going to do anything, they told me a few weeks ago they would do everything they could to help me get pregnant and they haven't done but one test. I have been to see my doctor in Dec 2010, Feb, March, April, Aug, Sept, and Oct. Some of those months I went 2 or more times, and they have only done an HSG and checked my progesterone levels nothing else, unless you count the fact that they are pretty much making us go broke. If an emergency situation comes up I will go, but I refuse to give them any more money until I have a reason to.

I understand & agree with what you're saying autigers. If they're not helping is better not to waste anymore money with them. Once you getting bfp you can go back to them & see what happens.

Sorry about af babee!! I really thought your test was a bfp!!

Xx

Autigers hunnie so sorry ya having a rough ride with your doctors e.t.c...

I fell Pregnant in august just gone and sadly i MC or classed as a chemical as i was only 1 day late. So anyways up to that point we had been trying almost 2 years without any help or tests e.t.c... and i got told that we couldnt be referred to a Fertility specialist untill another year had passed!!! i only got blood tests and a Progestrone checked as there may of been a issue with my pitruity gland as ive had major brain surgery a couple of years back. That all came back normal and thats it, were pretty much left to our own devices.

It sucks BIG TIME...

have you taken just B6 for a short LP before??? ive heard good things about that working well, it wont harm to try it hunnie

Thanks. I had a chemical in April and like you said you have to wait awhile to be referred to a Fertility specialist. So we both are on our own. It really does suck being in the position we are in.

I haven't tried just b6 for my short lp, but I am taking a b-50 which has all the other b vitamins in it too. I read that if you plan to take extra b6, you need to take the other b vitamins with it bc too much b6 is bad for you. I think it helped lengthen my lp bc 2 cycles ago it was only 8 days and this last cycle was 11 days so hopefully the more I take it the longer my lp gets.

I swear I have had the worse day today and I honestly feel like crying just to make myself feel better. It all started with the call from my doctor and then I heard that someone in my family got knocked up by a married man, and then I had to take my DD to dance class and I overheard one of the mothers say that she was pregnant and they werent even ttc, it was just a total surprise. I dont like to be jealous of other pregnant women, but when I have had a bad day like today , it really gets under my skin.

I wonder if you wouldn't be better off to look in to a different doctor. One who really cares what you have to say and truly offers help. I mean if they are this distracted and you are still ttc what will it be like when you do conceive?

I agree. I think maybe you should try a different dr. It can do WONDERS to have a dr sit down and discuss your worries (in full!) with you, and offer all the support they can.

If they weren't listening to me while I was TTC, I wouldn't be comfortable with them during pregnancy and beyond, etc, because I'd always wonder if they were just sweeping me under the rug. That's just me.

 

[Babykiser]

autigers - i am sorry that u have to deal with this. busy or not i dont think a dr should ever treat a patient like your dr is treating you. and i also agree with midg, if ur dr is acting like this towards you before u are even pregnant..im sure u wouldnt want him/her caring for u and your unborn baby when u do become pregnant. i would look for another provider as soon as possible! ttc is a stressful and at times disappointing process, you need a dr who understands this and who is sympathetic to yor needs.

Hi ladies,

I am so glad I found this thread and BabyandBump. I have been a member on BBC for most of my TTC journey and someone linked this thread when I searched for soy isoflaves.

A little info about me. We have been TTC for 4 years with one chemical pregnancy in febuary when I took a break from clomid. I have done 9 clomid cycles 2 were combo cycles with bravelle all this over 16 months. We did 3 iui's. None of these cycles resulted in a BFP. We were living in Japan for all this treatment and we just moved back to the states so we are taking a break from RE's until summer. I don't want to completely take a break YET but try maybe a few months with soy isoflaves. I also chart. The only problem we have is I don't ovulate or had weak ovulation. DH has super sperm so no issues there.

I am planning on taking a break from this cycle since DH is still in Japan and won't be here until a week after "supposed" ovulation. So this month I will start with raspberry leaf and primrose oil.

I am unsure about the amount of SI should take and the reasoning why people take different dosages a day. I got the 100mg pills so I was thinking to take 200mg for CD3-7. If I am correct 100mg of SI is the equivalent of 50mg clomid? I was taking 150mg of clomid so I was wondering if you thought that was a good dosage? Also I have read a lot about tribulus I was wondering what experience you have had with it if any and the dosage and CD you would take it? My ovulation usually occurs between CD17-20, so Id like to push ovulation up and make it stronger.

Are there any other vitamins or supplements besides prenatals to add to my regimen?

I can't wait to hear from you ladies! I am excited to meet some new people on the TTC journey.

 

[Rin731]

Welcome, Mscribbles

 

[tmr1234]

Mscribbles Welcome, I have been taking 200mg 1-5 this month. If you have been on clomid i would do 200mg. Good luck.

 

[tmr1234]

That's terrible. I didn't realise that you'd been trying that long with no help. Is there anyway you can go to another doctor? It's horrible that you're asking for help and they're not giving it to you.
