Trying before AF?

[vietmamsie]

Just got off the phone with my doctor... EVERYTHING was NORMAL. Got the green light to try again and was offered early scans when I find out i'm pregnant next. Hoping this has just been a string of bad luck (maybe PCOS related?) and next time will be THE time.

Sounds like you've all done some pretty interesting stuff. I would love to teach in Asia, however, my OH is dead set on moving to the states or Canada. I guess I am just more adventurous. I was an au pair as soon as I left school in various countries around Europe so I never got my A-levels, so getting a degree is on my list of things to do start September.

Viet: thats great news your normal. I hope the next is super sticky.

Viet my younger brother worked in Japan near Mt Fuji at a few schools...not sure what agency he was with but I could try and find out for you. He also went back recently as an exchange student with college to do a semester over there and he wants to go back but needs to have more $$ as it is quite expensive. Korea is about 3 times cheaper cost of living and only a 2 hr boat ride from Japan. Many of the teachers I know would travel to Japan on weekends or to renew their work visas.

viet - glad your tests came back normal. I hate to say that the other losses were "bad luck" (sounds so cold) but hopefully this means you have just as a good a chance as any to have your take-home baby next time.

Hello

I'm new but have lurked for a few months. I already have a wee boy who will be 3 at the end of may. I got pregnant quickly with him and all went smoothly apart from SPD in the pregnancy. We decided to try again for a sibling for him and got pregnant after 4 months I lost the baby when I was 8 weeks in dec just before xmas it had only grown to 6 weeks and was a natural miscarriage. I got pregnant straight away and lost that at 4-5 weeks in feb. I have just found out I'm pregnant again on Sunday! I have had no period between any of these pregnancies. I felt really positive yesterday but today I have a very sore lower back. No bleeding yet but it's stiff and sore. I'm between telling myself its probably fine and here we go again. I def felt more positive this time would work. Second time I felt negative to start with. I'm hoping back will be better tomorrow but wonder if I'm just kidding myself and its obviously going wrong.

Sooooooo quiet!! How is everyone doing?? Any updates??

I'm still waiting for my fertility clinic appointment...so infuriating!! Months are going by!! Still no ovulation. I have joined slimming world so that's going good!

Oooooo p.s. if your a POAS addict like me then in my Asda at the moment a 2pack of first response pregnancy tests is £6!!!!! Bargain! Maybe check your asda?

Xxx

When is your appointment? Hope it is coming up soon!

I got my bfp last Thursday so am pretty excited. Trying to stay positive but that is a tough battle sometimes.

Congratulations!! That's great news! Try and stay positive, I know it's hard sticky baby dust to you!

Grrrr the NHS just don't wanna help me right now!! Won't refer me to fertility clinic till oh has a sperm analysis, the waiting list for that was 3 months and he had it in February. We got the results and it has to be repeated cus they won't refer until any problems are confirmed by a second sperm analysis. 3 month wait for an appointment again!! How ridiculous!! Then when we get the results from that its a 6 week wait for an appointment at the fertility clinic! My GP just said well you need to loose weight and your only 26 so why are you in a rush? I went mental!! Who is she to decide when is the right age for me to have children?? It's obviously something that isn't happening easily for us, been trying for 3 years so I'm glad I started relatively young! Bitch doctor!!! She said I need to loose 2 stone so that's what I'm trying to do before we get referred to the fertility clinic so they don't have anything to say and just help me ovulate!!

 

[Starry Night]

Wow, that does sound rough. And what a rude thing for the doctor to say. 26 is still young, yes, but we all feel that biological clock ticking and time goes by so quickly. And when we have the desire for a child inside us it's something we want with our whole being and even a month feels like torture.

Hopefully the fertility clinic will be more sensitive and understanding as they see all sorts of cases all the time.

Exactly!! Thank you! Every month does feel like torture! It's nearly a year since I was last pregnant grrrrrr! I can't wait to see the fertility clinic

I think I'm the only one left that's not pregnant

 

[mummy2o]

Don't worry Emmy. I'm not pregnant either unless that one time this month we caught the egg, which is doubtful since we didn't really have sex! Hopefully you'll get some answers soon.

Starry congrats. I hope this one is sticky this time.

AFM I'm just crying my eyes out atm. I think my OH has left me. We had a fight earlier and he got violent so I told him to leave so I'm not sure if he'll come back. He hasn't taken his phone or keys with him so he's left me crying, which is no good since I need to remain positive for my son. Think I'll take him out for lunch I really don't feel like cooking.

Oh gosh! Mummy2o why were you arguing?? Violence isn't good what did he do? I am sure he will come back, you need to talk xx

Congrats Starry Night! Fingers and toes crossed that this is your rainbow baby!

That is so crap! Bloody NHS. The fertility clinic will definitely be more sympathetic than your stupid GP who is a massive crank. How dare she question your decision to have babies. 26 is a perfectly acceptable age to have them and also worry that something is wrong. It's fine to say you may need to get your BMI down, but leave the judgement at home. I bet if you were married she wouldn't have said that! Such double standards!

Speaking of marriage, how's the wedding planning going?

Is that what you started with? I was trying to look for a venue, I'm not religious so don't really want it in a church, but joe's family are religious hmmmmm

 

[flapjack10]

No, well I started looking at dresses in magazines and cutting out the ones I liked .

I think we started with the Church, then reception venue. Hmmm maybe you could have a civil ceremony, but in a Churchy kind of building. Something historic?

You know... I MS at 6 weeks on March 9th 2013 and now, 4 weeks later.. I have had the most incredible EWCM for the last week! Almost makes me think I might be heading for a... dare i say... BFP! We will see. We have only been kinda trying since the DR said wait a cycle. I really feel super fertile though and i didn't want to waste it

 

[markswife10]

I'm not pregnant yet either. We have started infertility testing (because it has been 2 years) and I was diagnosed with PCOS. At least now my trouble getting pregnant and STAYING pregnant has a name. They are putting me on Metformin for now and we'll go from there. Hoping good things happen soon!

Sorry Mommy2o! I hope things are OK!
