Stopping BCP to TTC***Updates & Progress/Noted Changes Since Stopping BCP***24BFPs***

Didn't mean to make you cry at the bus stop Patience!!! :hugs: I totally understand nothing but the sticky bfp helping at this point. And we're here for you to vent so don't worry about that!! I think your at the point where you NEED to be that crazy annoying patient that calls every day demanding answers until you get them. That's her job!! Maybe she'll finally get the point and step up her game!
 
MrsH I'm in the same spot, my hubby wants a baby so badly but he just isn't interested in dtd to make one, only when he's in the mood (6dpo and we've bd TWICE this cycle, than goodness they were right before ov!) it's not always that bad which is why I suspect ttc is getting to him also, which I will throw at the specialist if she ever calls me! Definitely try and find a way to improve your bd, maybe do a "once I get a +opk we need to bd either today or tomorrow no exceptions!" (I prefer day of since I sometimes ov same day, but if you've recently bd or might not be realistic) but if you start saying "when I say jump you say how high" i think he'll be like mine and dig his heels or worse. Good luck!
 
Yeah I'm gonna go call out now Mk, the specialist is paid to save money by pushing people off, not help people and I've had it! I'll not rest till she gives in, I'm normally pushover but I've got breaking point!

Wow same here! We've done it twice and both we're around O, so that's the only reason I have any hopes at all. I think like you said, I was telling him we need to do it now, and that made him not want to. So next cycle I'm just going to say when I am around O we need to BD every other day. I already offered to him to wake me up in the morning and he still didn't do it. He's really tired after work and I get it, I am too but there's no way in hell I'll wake up early to get him up and he already gets up an hour and a half before me. At this point, I don't care what he has to do before hand as long as it happens.

I really hope things start working out for you!!!
 
Thanks ladies!! You guys rock! I'm prepping myself for this coming cycle. Now if I could stay out of the Halloween candy........
 
Luckily Halloween is quiet here, I've got my Pumpkin to carve but that's it!

I celebrated my cream being shipped by cutting open the one of two tubes that had least in it, found a nice blob or 3 that weren't coming out! Tonight is hot chocolate with low carb choc from work, and TV series with hubby (once he's stopped arguing comics with his brother) tomorrow is battle day.
 
Good luck Patience! Keep us updated tomorrow!

Charlie I just noticed we're both in CO.
 
Give them hell, patience! You deserve answers!

Just been out for a lovely meal with friends, but I'm so bloated now :( One thing I hate about the tww is that I can't take my ibs meds as they're unsafe for pregnancy. My GP said keep taking them until I get a bfp, but I'd rather not risk it! Ack.

Trying not to symptom spot as my AF symptoms mimic pregnancy symptoms! So really, I've no idea! 7dpo (or 8dpo, depending on the app!), I'm so tired, had waves of dizziness & nausea, cramping & tender boobs. I really want to test soon, but keep putting it off! I'm sure I felt this way last cycle, with a cold to boot! Hmph.
 
I caved & took a test. BFN. It couldn't have been more negative if it tried! >.<
I know it's early days, I'm only 8dpo, but the BFN paired with my temp dips.. I'm pretty sure I'm out again.

My IBS was awful last night, worst attack in a long time. I'm so fed up.
 
Aw charmed I'm sorry, but I hope you are wrong somehow! Still have time for those temps to come back up!
 
Eh, think I'm getting sick again, been up all morning with discomfort and spent (tmi) a lot of time in the bathroom. I had been been feeling really good for awhile and now I'm just pissed about getting sick again. Makes me feel like I'm making baby sick which almost sucks worse than the illness :(
 
Morning ladies, where are our BFPs updates? :)

Yesterday I called my doctor, I was having an horrible day at work and was hoping to make things better... Well no. There really is no way she'll test me for anything before 6 months (and I've already been tested for thyroid last month and its fine, it was a test unrelated to AF or O though).

She kind of scolded me for looking up horror stories on Internet too... She said she had a feeling I basically have no lining after having no withdrawal bleed in a year +, and only time will help. I even asked her if there was anything I could do to speed up the process and she just said a flat no, like she would have told me to stand upside down on my hands for 30 minutes everyday and I'd have done it, but nothing?! Gnahaaaaa
 
Sorry your temps are getting you down Charmed, you had a great LP last cycle so like Twinkie said, there's still time for them to go up again :)

Sorry you're feeling crummy Twinks, must be tough when you don't want to put any cold medicine in your body is the baby doesn't have to have it as well!
 
Gah Danna that sounds terrible :( i don't believe her either! There are plenty of natural remedies that can help at least bring on af, or stuff to try and ov! It's up to you if you want to risk tinkering with your body, I'm so sick of mine that I'm happy to take the consequences from my Dr if i actually get a bfp with my technique vs her doing nothing :D
 
I think a lot of doctors don't believe in natural remedies for some reason. I am taking vitex and dong quai...I've been hesitant about trying soy instead. It's just that it's hard to treat the problem when I don't know what the root of it is! Is it my estrogen that's too low? Too high? LH that's actig weird? :/

Patience, your doctor doesn't know you are doing the cream right? I know it's illegal here and I know it would make a very awkward discussion with my doctor once I get a BFP (worth it of course, but awkward) xD
 
No they don't believe anything but medicine :D glad you're trying, I'd hope vitex would still get you to ovulate, regardless of your lining you'd still have a mini period even if it was just spotting! That would definitely make things difficult with the cream, natural remedies is one thing but not if it's illegal! You try whatever you're prepared for, I've tried loads of things but the only one I won't touch is anything meant to give me estrogen, cuz i don't know if i have too much or too little. Supposedly when you have too little progesterone you have too much estrogen, but not enough estrogen means the lining doesn't thicken. Headache!

But yeah she doesn't know about it and would refuse if i asked for a prescription, so I'm just going to take it and deal with the consequences if i do get pregnant using it, it'll only prove I'm right! Worst case she hates me but can't stop me from taking it :) in any case when I get a sticky I'm fairly sure I get to stop going to her!
