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

Well I had a good pep talk with my supervisor at work. I'm still feeling down, but she helped me realize that really we are just getting started on figuring things out with why my body isn't working correctly. I'm healthy and I don't have any hormone issues so it has to be an easy fix.

Thanks for sticking by me ladies. It means a lot💜
 
Oh Charlie, I'm so sorry :( What are the next steps with your Dr now? I'm glad you've got a fighting spirit, you will get your baby!!

AFM.. I'm sick. Rargh. DH managed to give me his cold. I've phoned in sick at work.. Partly because I can't think with my head so foggy/chills etc! But partly because I'm starting to get frustrated by the place. They're not paying me properly. Anyway, back to the annoyance at hand! I am feeling awful, but I am due to ovulate in the next day or so! My cm is creamy, when normally it would be wet or ewcm, so not sure what to make of that. I'm hoping we get a chance to BD later. DH is feeling better & I feel as though I can push past it! I'll be so upset in a few days when I#m better if I don't even try.

Hope everyone else is ok!! xx
 
Thanks Charmed. I'm sorry you're sick!! That's a huge bummer!!
My Dr. Wants to talk about a different medication and some other things. I'm trying my best to lose weight as well. I'm not positive what she's going to say.

I hope you feel better in time to BD!! Glad your DH is feeling better though, at least that's one step in the right direction. 💜
 
Charlie...hang in there. I know, super easy for me to say! Sounds like your Dr has a positive attitude and is willing to travel down a successful road with you. That's great!
 
Hello ladies ! Happy new year to you all :)

I've tried to catch up on a couple of pages, i've clearly missed a lot :) congrats MrsH! And the other ladies I didn't see, but there's been a lot of BFPs since I was here last !

Sorry it took me a while to get back, it's just been very sensitive still. The surgery was a breeze, and a waste of time in the Dr and my eyes !

I blessedly got referred to another lady who supposedly specialises in thin lining. My first visit to her was good, she sent hubby to get the expensive blood test since the other lady focused so much on me, then prescribed me a super progesterone suppository :) but wants me to wait till feb to use it ! Until we get the results of hubbys blood test at least, but HELL NO ! We took two months out of TTC after the 5th chemical, then another for the surgery, I will start the progesterone this 2ww :) I am so ready for 2015 to be good to me ! If by some miracle i get a sticky on the first round of prescription she can suck it up, even though I shouldn't be using it this month ! Who knows :)

How is everyone, what have I missed ?
 
Welcome back patience! I was hoping we'd see you around again soon! So glad you've got someone willing to work with you finally!! Good luck to you this tww :)

Happy new year ladies! May 2015 bring you all beautiful babies :dust:
 
Patience, hi and welcome back! So glad to see you on here again, we've missed you!!! I'm sorry the surgery was essentially a waste of time, but I'm glad to hear that everything went smoothly at least. And that's great news that they finally have you seeing a specialist that will work for you!!! Yay!!! Are you liking this Dr better so far, is she at least nicer? :)

Charlie, I haven't been on to respond for a few days so I'm a little late with this, but I'm so sorry that the blood work shows that you didn't O this cycle. :( That's so incredibly frustrating! You past blood work on Clomid has come back fine, right? I really, really hope this cycle was just a fluke for you and that you're back with a good, strong O next cycle...and that you catch it! :hugs:

Charmed, sorry you weren't feeling well! :( Are you feeling any better yet? I hope so!

I hope everyone had a nice New Year's! Did anyone do anything particularly fun this year?
 
Oh nuts you didn't ov this month Charlie? Crap! :( has the Dr given any explanation as to why? I'm just guessing here but maybe you're used to the dose of chlomid you're getting and need a higher one?

Thanks for the warm welcome back ladies :) Turtle she's 50/50, she told me the chemicals aren't real pregnancies, which I kinda agree with but at the same time I'm still conceiving and having serious trouble in the sticking department and she shouldn't be so damn insensitive. That being said she gave me the prescription of progesterone which I've Googled to death and apparently is great for LP issues which I have, though she prescribed it for the implantation/lining issues.

There is no way in hell I am waiting another month just for hubby's blood results, I'm getting on that stuff asap! She won't be happy but I have high hopes it'll work in the 3 months I have to take out at the chemist, her opinion matters little if i get my sticky since it'll have proved I've been right and people have just been shoving me away!
 
Welcome back Patience!! So great to see you back & I am happy that someone is finally listening to you! :D I probably wouldn't be able to wait to use the progesterone either, has she specified why you must wait? Or is it just to make sure that your OH's tests come back ok?

AFM.. We managed to BD on CD22. I've no idea if I've ovulated, & if I have, when! My temp shot up, CD23 - meaning I could have O'd on CD22.. But that's rather early for me. I think it might have shot up because I was ill (still am). I took it at 3.40am first & it was 37.11c (VERY hot for me, I'm normally around 35-mid 36). It was up again this morning, at a more reasonable post-O temp. (I adjusted the CD23 temp with one I took later on, it had gone down). I'm still full of cold & I am really hopeful for this month! I don't know if we caught the eggy, but I don't want to let myself be negative! I could be 2dpo.. I could be O'ing today! Who knows!
 
Yes, I ovulated great on the other cycles. I have an appointment on the 9th to talk to the Dr about different medication. And what to do next.

Patience I have everything crossed for you! And great point about my body adjusting to the amount of clomid. That's probably what had happened.

FX for you charmed!!
 
Patience, welcome back!! I think everyone has missed you!

I'm so glad you ladies are finally getting some sort of help :)
 
*feeling so loved right now* I was afraid of coming back after so many bfps that there wouldn't be anyone I recognised! :) good to see you Cdex, Ms Elizabeth and all our lovely preggo cheerleaders!

She wanted us to wait cuz i told her how emotionally killing this has been for us, but I've had 2 months which I guess she didn't know at the time and it's really not going to improve by waiting with the progesterone, I'm still keeping it laid back and roughly tracking ov so I know when to start (it's normally hard to miss these days with the "my ovaries are bursting" feeling :haha:) plus hubby's test should come back end of Jan but I've believed in my heart from the first moment I realised my periods were light and my lp was short that all I've needed is this prescription. Eggs don't fail me now, no pressure for a bfp or anything now! :haha:

Bah that stinks Charlie, does that mean you will just have to wait for ov? Is it possible it happened later on than usual and the blood test wasn't a high enough count to say it happened? Or will they kick start your next cycle so you don't sit and wait?

Charmed that's a tough one, it could be from being poorly or you O'ed already! I know it was a surprise when mine went down, I used to ov around cd23, now it's 14-16 like clockwork, big improvement :) maybe your body is settling down now!
 
Patience! Welcome back! :hugs: I'm so glad to hear you're getting treatment finally. I wouldn't want to wait for DH's results either! I really hope the progesterone is exactly what you need to get your sticky bean.

Charlie I'm sorry that O didn't come this month. :( I wonder too if your body just got used to the Clomid dose. That would be an easy-ish fix if that was he case, yeah? FX for good news and a game plan on the 9th!

How confusing with the temp dip Charmed! Being sick really throws a wrench in things, doesn't it? I do hope you catch that eggie!

I've been lurking a bit more as I've gotten more sick, but I'm definitely rooting for you ladies. <3
 
Cheerleaders! Of course!!!

Wish I could offer advice about meds....so instead, I'll offer support and :hugs:

Its one of life's weird things...not everyone gets. I wasn't sure what i would do...if I waited too long to TTC...was so worried about having no eggs left. But everyone said....youre fine youre fine....uh huh...easy for all the folks with kids to say. Then skip years and here I am...worried about genetic test result cause im older....and again, don't worry...easier said than done!

So, thank you ladies for understanding what it is like to be told "relax, dont worry".

Our bodies are freaky things. I'm sure we all have had time went AF came early/late because we mentally freaked ourselves out. How can we do that? Are we magical or something?

I'm waiting for OH to tell his kids...I'm left hiding everything until then. Not easy! Luckily no one has asked why I am always in yoga pants or sleeping all the time. Worried about their reaction. They won't be the only children now...or that they will feel like second fiddles.

My point....life seems like one huge worry!

So....let's not worry....let's enjoy TTC and the pleasures it brings! Thats right....pleasures!
 
We will see what Dr says on the 9th. I think she wants to put me on a longer term medicine and run some more tests. We will see. I'm sure she will force AF to show up. No sense in waiting since we tried that before the clomid. Though anything is possible. I'll still test next week when AF is due and before my appointment to be positive that I'm not pregnant so they can force AF to show up.

I started reading "yes you can get pregnant" so far it's really great helping me stay positive.

Patience, I'm thinking you're right on the prescription. No need to wait for your DH results! I can't wait for your sticky bean!!!
 
Ms E, exactly! That's the only benefit to being LTTTC, people have stopped saying "relax, it'll happen" most frustrating thing ever! :/

I'm taking this new year and making it mine! With the prescription I have 3/4 months depending if it extends my LP or not, I believe it can happen in that time! I've conceived so many times that even with the "30% chance each month" stat, hopefully 3 months will do it :) I've not gone more than 2 cycle between chemicals so bring it sticky! Now I'm just sat here waiting to ov trying not to scare hubby off dtd, now I feel we have a chance I wanna make the most of the very expensive prescription (around £40 per 15 days)!!

Can't wait for 9th for you Charlie, I hope they force af to come so you can get on to the next round with a stronger/better prescription (in case you didn't sneaky ov)

Nice crosshairs Charmed! :D
