Hi there!

Is this thread still alive?

I would love to join...

I started my ttc journey at 234lbs, a few months ago my FS told me to lose weight if I want a chance at pregnancy. I am now 209lbs, I lost just over 25lbs but my hormones still dont seem to be working.

I really hope this thread is still alive

Hello! I posted in here not too long ago myself hoping that there would still be some of the old gang hanging around, and then not long after that we got our bfp! so far everything is going well, 7 week scan on the 26th of this month...i guess i would be a success story, eh?

Congrats Melly Belly!!!!!

Ibelieve no I wasn't on any meds. My Dr told me I had to wait until we hadn't conceived for a year before she would transfer me to a specialist. I think we concieved when we were on vacation... so as much as I hated people telling me "relax" and it will happen or to "stop trying", I think being away from all the stress is what helped.
I had my appointment booked with my Dr for her to do all the testing and transfer me out to a specialist booked and got to change it to my first pregancy appointment!

Thanks! in contrast to Magan, I did have to do the whole Clomid/Novarel route, as i have a assumed blockage in my right tube, so we needed the left to release the egg and that seemed to do it, confirmed with the ultrasound that the left was the winner, did the IUI, and here we are...i got lucky that it was on the second go, as ive seen where it can take much longer for others...so i feel grateful and so does my bank account

MellyBelly! Congratulations girl! So excited for you! Looks like you did the same thing I did which was to just take a step away from all of the TTC boards. It got to be so stressful for me. I just came back on today because I just got my very first BFP! I don't know how far along I am yet because my cycles are wonky and inconsistent. Somewhere around 4-6 weeks I think.

Ladies, us big girls can do it. I haven't posted on here in a long time, but I used to be very active on this board. After trying for almost two years my husband and I conceived naturally. I had initially lost some weight, but over the last few months I actually put some weight on so at 260 lbs it happened.

EEeeee!!! congrats to you too!! yeah that was exactly it, i was so focused on testing and timing and all of that...when we finally got down to the medical side of things, no amount of keeping track or timing was going to help...(hubby has idiopathic azoospermia, i have a right tube that looks blocked) so we needed scientific intervention (ultrasound to confirm which side was ovulating, and some clomid to make more than one grow) to make it all work out...so if you are between 4-6 weeks, you are probably close to where im at...yay! we can be bump buddies!!!

Thanks!
Oh, we have an idea of whats coming, the husband is freaking out about the house being immaculate and how he has so much cleaning to do (he is going to be a stay at home daddy, since he works from home anyway) and i barely get online as it is, unless im at work, in between/or at lunch...i had come back to gripe about everything and going through all the tests and waiting for IUI and medications, and thats when we found out, not long after!

 

[Jo_Bean]

Amazing news Melly!

 

[PandaMao]

Thanks ladies! Jo, Your baby in Your Avatar Is Just Too precious. Just too cute.

Awesome! Congrats Panda!! Sounds like we are going to have a second round baby boom! Lol

Actually, I'm pretty sure i got pregnant while in Pennsylvania.
I went there for a 2 week vacation and I started feeling sick about a week after we got back I think. Pregnancy was really the last thing on my mind so I wasn't paying any attention to symptoms.

 

[Jo_Bean]

Thanks hun xxx

 

[BBWttc29]

Did you do anything different

 

[PandaMao]

Honestly, I really didn't do anything different. It may have helped that I was on a two week vacation so I was just away from the stresses of everyday life and away from work.

 

[Magan85]

I agree with Panda I think vacation is what did it for me too, as cliche as it sounds. I told myself I was not going to stress about not getting pregnant and that I was going to let lose and have fun.... and I did haha

 

[Jo_Bean]

And me! We had given up and were going to stop trying. Then a holiday, then a bfp! Just goes to show that stress is probably a big factor in ttc.

 

[Ibelieveitwil]

Congrats to all you ladies on your wonderful !! Im super happy for all of you...

Although I am have to going to leave this thread as it a little difficult to interact when I am neither pregnant or have a child but nevertheless thanks for your support and good luck to you all on your future pregnancies and your lovely babies!

 

[magic_angel]

I miss chatting to you all, hope everyone is doing ok, sending lots of baby dust to you all xxxx

 

[PandaMao]

Magic! I found myself thinking about you not too long ago and was wondering how you were. I'm sorry you've been having so much pain, but it sounds hopeful that maybe there is an end in sight. I hope all guess will at your appointment.
