Sorry to hear AF got you Kwynia but what a fabulous Anniversary gift to each other!!!!!!!

Meg - Trust your gut and get yourself a new Dr. He sounds terrible (for doctor/patient communication at least) and you have every right to rant about your experience. I would have been just as fed up as you!

Macy - how are you holding up today? Are you still feeling down?

 

[kwynia]

I agree about the doc meg, the mere fact that you have to rant after seeing him tells me you need a new doc. I luv my ob-gyn, he still calls me kiddo even though im almost 35 lol.

Deal!! How's it going?

I am still juggling these batty digital OPKs. My IC looks like I've already ovulated but my digital is still a flashing smiley. My ticker & app have Friday as my most fertile day, so I'm interested to see if I will get a solid smiley then.

Either or, I plan to get some solid BD going through Sunday.

Cutie - I tried the digi OPK during my last cycle (kind of close to O not early on) and I got one day of the empty circle (negetive) and 4 days in a row of flashy smiley face and then I stopped using them because FF gave me my crosshairs!! So I never got a solid smiley from it.

AFM - I am doing a little right now!!!
(this is a copy of a post I put in another thread incase you come across it twice)

I'm relieved this morning! I had gotten back results from my annual pap that there was a slight/mild dyspacia of cells so I had to get a Colposcopy & a small pinch biopsy on my cervix last Friday. I was so PISSED because the day I had the Colpo - which I scheduled figuring it was just before my "fertile window" ended up being the day I got my most positive OPK and I was told no BDing for a couple days. I was so upset that I couldn't BD the day I finally get a positive OPK...ughhhhh. I was CRUSHED. But then FF shocked me and gave me my crosshairs as of Friday so I guess I Oed that day. This means I got BD in three days before & the day before O so at least this month wasn't a total wash but I'm really not feeling it being a sucess either since I had that procedure when my body needed to be focusing all it's attention on sperm catching egg and then since Friday I've been nervous that if the biopsy came back with cells that were deemed "pre-cancerous" they would have to do a proceedure to get rid of those cells & that proceedure you have to abstain from Bding for up to 2wks!!! So I started to feel out for this cycle & my July cycle and it had me soooooo freaking depressed. So this morning my Dr called & said that my biopsy came back good & I just need to do a follow up pap in 6/mo...HUGE relief!!! So I'm feeling back in the TTC game and I feel a huge weight off my shoulders!!! And my temp went up a little bit which makes me happier because it was on the coverline yesterday & I thought I was going to have a very short cycle if it didn't go back up!!!

Wow - sorry for the long post but I've been holding this all in for days now!!

I'm going to test through Friday and then give up (i'll be out of tests anyway). It was fun while it lasted, but I won't bother with it again. I think I can safely say that I O between CD 16 - CD20 now. CD20 will be Friday.

SO happy to hear that about your BD, O, results and your crosshairs. that's awesome!!!!!

Hey girls. I had a crazy busy work day and havent had a chance to catch up yet but I thought Id check in and let you know I got another BFN tonight. Im weak and picked up 2 hpts on my way home from work since I havent had an appetite (weird for me) and very sharp pains in my nipples. I was expecting the BFN though I think Im just numb to them now. Hope you all are having better luck!

Ugh sorry Macy!! Your symptoms sound good though so maybe it's a late one. Here for you. Bfn's are the pits!

 

[kwynia]

Sorry Macy

 

[macydarling]

Thanks! It was Rite Aid brand so maybe it wasnt sensitive enough (eternal optimist).

Sorry about that stupid witch Kwynia When will she realize she isnt invited to our party!

 

[macydarling]

Well, looks like AF got me a day early. Im spotting.

 

[cutieq]

Sorry Macy! I hate AF. Good luck next cycle Hun. Don't leave us please

 

[MegNE922]

👎 blah!!!!!! I'm sorry Macy.
Balls man I'm so sick of BFN. this Aunt Flow lady really is a pain in the booty! She's never been wanted. Lol.

 

[Deal9027]

So sorry Macy

Here's to a July BFP!!!!!!!!!!!! You got this!!!!!!

 

[cutieq]

Hi ladies! I'm assuming that I O'd never got the solid smiley so I'm gonna stick to today being ovulation I guess. All so confusing. We're good to BD through the weekend just to be on the safe side. Ready for the TWW. I'm not sure how to feel about this cycle. Gonna start my pineapple today but we shall see. Testing June 26 and trying not to symptom spot.

 

[MegNE922]

Good luck!!

Well today I had my ovary test ( HSG )....not good news not bad news either.

#1 if you're going to do the test. Prepair to be mortified by the lack of personal boundaries lol.
The radiology tech was sooo sweet and nice the doc was great and showed me everything on screen and explained what we saw.
#2 it's not nearly as painful as expected. More awkward, slight cramping.
#3 on to the findings.
They had a hard time finding my cervix at first. They thought it was because I was on a X-Ray table so after some uncomfortable searching they found it. Inserted a rubbery syringe that blows up like a ballon into my uterus. Mind you I saw this whole thing!
In screen I could see my uterus. It was perfect shape and I could see one ovary. They're soo skinny. I wasn't expecting it.
The doc injected the dye and I watched it go right to the left side and out like it was supposed to. I did some wiggling and he did more searching even adding more dye but we didn't see a right side. At all. It didn't look blocked....it didn't look there at all. There was no mistaken it. the dye went to the top of my uterus there was a small point where it should have been but that's it.

The md tried to reassure me all I need was 1 working ovarie but I couldn't help but break down. I've always known since forever that something was wrong. It was kinda relieving...but still heartbreaking.so now I'm in a limbo where I don't know what's next. Does this mean I only fully O every other month? Will I have to do IUI or IVF? What?! What's next!

I have to wait until July 11th to figure anything out. I had to call my horrible OB bc he was supposed to get me an antibiotic & they hadn't !! So when my pharmacist finally called it in they gave her a script for amoxicillin I'M ALLERGIC! Oye vey!
I talked to a friend who's had a lot of fertility issues and she reccomended a fertility specialist. So I may go that route too.
It's been a draining week. Glad to be going away this weekend that's for sure.
Also I've started telling my closest friends about our issues and it really does relieve a lot of pressure.

@Meg : You have more information! A blessing and a curse!
Do you get ovulation cramps on both sides? Your left ovary could be in better shape than the right, so it may be doing most of the work, therefore you have an egg coming down the pipes more than 50% of the time. You can 'listen' to your body the next time you O to see if you feel on one side. I guess the HSG doesn't tell you more than the right one isn't connected, but not necessarily what kind of shape it's in. Have you ever had an ultrasound?
There's a reason why we have two of them!

 

[Deal9027]

Meg - glad you got so much info - knowledge is power!!! Now you know what your obstacles are and can create a plan to conquer them!! Sounds like seeing a fertility specialist would be in your best interest & I agree with Frenchie - listen to your body when you O and be your own private detective to figure yourself out!! I'm glad you are opening up to friends and/or family. It's a matter that is SO personal and it can be hard to share and I don't know about you but I also felt that if I told people we were TTC I would feel more pressure to accomplish it. No one wants to fail in front of an audience. I finally hit a point where I needed to vent with a friend and it was the biggest relief to share my struggles, fears & all the emotional ups & downs with someone. I chose one of my BFF's to share it with and also my mom & my Aunt. I don't regret it one bit!! When I start my period my Friend drops everything to come over with a bottle of my favorite wine, sushi & some kind of delicious chocolate dessert. She makes me laugh and let's me get my sad out.
