The NEVER had a BFP thread. Lets stick together ladies!

[minuet]

Whelp! Here's the update. Results from my hubby's sperm count. Low! 10, normal being 25-250... And motility at 55%, when the dr said normal is 75%. I'm still keeping my apt with the infertility specialist just in case he's not the only issue. We're making an apt for him with a urologist tomorrow! Wonder what are chances are if his Sperm count can't be improved? Hmmm...

There are definitely ways to improve sperm count and health. You can look into more natural options to up his count too. One in particular is zinc.

Hi ladies quick question, I just had a tricky period. Period was due on the 17th on the 15th I spotted on the 16th light peroid 17th medium flow 18th completely gone I normally have a 3 day period but this is light even for me. Does it sound like a period to you ladies or something else? I don't know what to make of it.

Have you tested?

nursejamie, there are lots of things that can be done to improve your hubby's swimmers

Blucky yay for your cycle starting on it's own!

 

[LeahJ7712]

No didn't want to waste a test considering I was sure it was a period, But it just seems out of wack now that I look back

 

[minuet]

It sounds like a period to me. But you could always test to be sure. Do you temp? That'd also give you a clue if it was real period or not.

Hi Ladies, I am just checking in, I have not been on for nearly a week. I am 16 dpo...still having symptoms that could be AF...but these have been changing slightly and have been going on for about 1.5 weeks. I tested on 13 dpo and got a BFN...but I am still staying positive that it was just too early to test. I think I'll test again tomorrow. So many strange things, like my bbs usually get really sore before AF (like for a few days) but they are only slightly tender, still having bloating, feel gassy, emotional (I am near tears almost once a day), my sore low back has become less sore (but not completely gone). For the past three days I am not hungry...I eat just because I should, and have had the most cramping/dull pains in my abdomen for the first part of the morning and a little nausea (just a little). At 12 dpo I got a migraine and did not take any Advil because my Chinese Doctor said to 'act like I am pregnant' if I don't know - a migraine and no pain meds really sucked

What is going on with everyone else? Anyone almost reading to test?

Hello I suffer from migraines and was taking Imitrex, but stopped it. I was told it is ok to take fioricet and that is what I do and it helps a lot!

Thanks Chris!!! I will hopefully have to look into that one day soon - still keeping my fingers crossed for a BFP this cycle. NOT that I am looking forward to another migraine.

Hi I'm new... this thread looks like the perfect one for me. My DH and I have been actively TTC since April, but my periods were super irregular this summer (I've been relatively irregular since I started) so I went to the doctor and found out I have PCOS. I took Provera for 10 days and AF started yesterday, right after I finished the 10th pill. I am now on 1000mg Metformin (still getting used to it, ugh!) and starting 50mg Clomid days 5-9. I plan to use Mucinex/PreSeed. I am really hoping the 50mgs Clomid works for me but if it doesn't my doctor will prescribe the 100mg for next month.

I have only told one person in my family that we're actively TTC because I don't want the added pressure/disappointment from family and friends. However, I've been feeling kinda lonely just going through it with only my husband (who is the best, but doesn't have first had experience!). I am excited to be with a community of women also going through the same thing!

Baby dust to all!

 

[luna_19]

welcome

I hope the meds help you, it's great you were able to be diagnosed and start treatment so soon!

 

[bluckycharmed]

Welcome Yest! I too have PCOS so I know how you feel! I HATED the adjustment period for metformin, but I promise it gets better! My side effects went away in about 2 1/2 weeks... but they were a brutal 2 1/2 weeks!!

Luna, you are getting soon to testing... fx for you!!

I will be starting 100mg of clomid on Sunday, then October 2nd I will be going in for a ultrasound to see if I have any mature follicles... If I do my DH and I will be to try and catch one! I have gone for u/s before but I have never had any follies that were worth anything, so I really REALLY hope that I have some mature ones and then I can have HOPE during my TWW this cycle!

fx for us all!
