Doing it naturally. Been told I wouldnt be a good candidate for IVF as I have a low AMH. Kind of relieved because I have never wanted to go the IVF route although now my desire is getting stronger and stronger and I wonder if I will feel thats the only thing I can try next. CLomid has been fine but I dont feel anything apart from the boob thing. And temps a bit all over the place so I dont think I have had a miracle first experience on Clomid. Been working away from home this week and its been quite stressful which I dont suppose helps anything!
And Im having a facebook day when all my friends are sprouting about how great their children are! Grrrr!
Oh I hear u on the Facebook thing hon.. I actually deactivated my Facebook account about 2 months ago for similar type of reasons. I found myself way too many times ruining my day by looking at Facebook & seeing things that would get to me. I love it on one hand bcos it kept me in touch with all my family in the uk.. But it was seriously bad for my mental health some days! I work in mental health so I had to practice what I preach & decide that it is just a stupid Internet site that people mostly use to advertise how great or crap their life is..... & when I was having a bad day it could push me just a little to far into a negative place. So for now, I'm happy without it.
On the IVF thing. I'm at a point in my life (38!) where I now realise I will never say never.. Until u are experiencing something firsthand you never really know how u will feel in certain situations. So if u decide to try IVF, then good for you. Only you will know if it's right to try. I hope the clomid helps & u get ur bfp soon. I haven't had that AMH test.. Bit nervous that the FS might want me to get it done.. I worry that if I get a bad result that I'll end up so negative & pessimistic that I'll give up. I've had a VERY difficult 6-12 months & have struggled with situational anxiety & mild depression.. I'm in a good place right now so I'd hate to get bad news & start feeling bad again. But I guess I'll cross that bridge when/if I get to it!
I was just telling Jelly my new dr wanted me to have that test done this week because I'm 39 years old going to be 40 in August. I never knew that test even existed but I am nervous about getting my results back next week. I just tested like an idiot at about 7-8DPO not sure which I am but I got a BFN anyways. I broke down and cried today while buying a baby gift for a shower I had to attend. I can't believe how emotional this makes you when ttc. It always seems someone somewhere either thinks you are crazy or are an emotional basket case. It can be very frustrating. I too deleted my fb as well a few months back.
Tundralife, (((hugs)))... If I had a dollar for every time I've cried over friends around me getting pregnant or giving birth.. I'd be a rich woman. I've sat & balled my eyes out many many times with my lovely mum trying to cheer me up & keep me positive. Even at work today, I'm a nurse & our maternity unit obviously had some kind of orientation for mums that are about to pop.. So on my way to the coffee shop I walked straight bang into a group of about 15 VERY pregnant women!!!!! And I find myself feeling quite.... Hmmmm... How should I say it... Well I guess I was sneering on the inside!! And actually thinking 'more bloody pregnant women!!'!!! Which I am a teeny bit ashamed of... But it's not personal of course.. It's just how I momentarily deal with the pangs of jealously & envy that I feel. I'm otherwise usually a nice caring person ; )
It's good that you've had the AMH test. I will have it if its offered. After all there's no point denying the truth.. & if there's a issue it's better to know bcos it might mean taking more aggressive action.
Sorry about ur bfn. But I guess it's still early days too..
And I have to say.. I can't stand baby showers!! They are like torture!!
