Trying to conceive # 1 with male fertility issues

Noodle, Not just me then!
That's good! Mine suffers with nerves a little so he sometimes needs help.. Definitely worth a go!

FX it's our month, We can be called the 'Terrible Preggo Trio'

I just took a good look at your chart, and it is looking fabulous!

 

[Lost7]

Thank you! I frequently have triphasic charts though, so that's no real indicator for me! Not sure what's changed, after the March loss they just have been!

This was last months .. Looked great until the massive dip!

 

[NoodleHelm]

I think it looks better this cycle, since the temp increase is steady instead of down and up, down and up. It is a constant increase isntead of the single dip. Fx it is a good sign.

How long are you waiting to test?

 

[Lost7]

A couple of hours? I already tested today, questionable line. CTP women think it's positive, many think it's positive actually - I'm chalking it up as an indent though!

7 DPO is way too early! FRER on Wednesday / Thu (9/10 DPO).

 

[NoodleHelm]

And you didn't post in our thread!! >:S

hey gals sorry i was on vacation. but tested today 12dpo and got a bfp!!! can't believe this!!! trying not to be too excited in case it is just a chemical but its so hard. Going to my doctor on wednesday and hopefully she will give me a blood test. So excited that the fertilitaid worked for my DH! and preseed.

You guys see 2 lines right?

 

[CathiiNoo]

Oh my word! Congrats Swimmy. I'm super happy for you. Now I want to put my OH on fertilaid.

How did your DH react to the news?

 

[NoodleHelm]

YAY! Congrats!!! I think that is too strong of a BFP to be a chemical. Good luck!

That makes me want to go buy FertilAid and insist that DH start taking it too.

 

[swimmyj1]

digital says 1-2 weeks pregnant!!! Wish i would have been temping so i might know when I implanted. Can't wait to see my doctor tomorrow. I don't know if I should call my doctor and tell her the nature of my visit has changed or not. I just can't believe that the fertilaid worked. we also used preseed.
trying not to make myself too worried things won't go well. I've had a few chemicals so that always makes me worried lol

 

[CathiiNoo]

You did it Simmy! Now try and relax a bit. Tell DH to give you a massage and try not think of the negatives. Xx

 

[Lost7]

Wow you're only 7 DPO! Congrats

 

[NoodleHelm]

Was your DH taking only the FertilAid, or the other supplements that are offered as well?

Congrats! Relax, and try not to stress or worry. I know it is hard though.

 

[swimmyj1]

No I'm 13dpo I didn't temp last week while on vacation whoops.

He is on fertilaid, and vitamin c. Fingers crossed my doctor gives me good news tomorrow

 

[CathiiNoo]

Hey ladies and swimmy's bean! How's everyone doing? CD8 for me today. Had a craving to pee on a stick so did an ovulation test and obviously negative lol. Used my first IC ones and they're lumo pink. I was very excited haha.

So I looked for fertilaid on ebay and it's so expensive so unfortunately I can't go down that route on a monthly basis

 

[swimmyj1]

I've been a little panicked. blood work came back yesterday. Hcg is only 55 (but my doctor said that's normal for 4 weeks) especially if i implanted later. But my progesterone is only 10! and i'm already on progesterone. She won't up my dose and doesn't want to repeat the progesterone. Ugh im just frustrated, and have a bad feeling this is going to end in a MC like my last one. I have an ultrasound in 2 weeks so maybe that will be a good sign. repeat labs in the morning. (sorry i know im being whinny i'm just emotionally dumb right now)

Also just for future reference opk's will be + if your pregnant lol

 

[CathiiNoo]

Hi Swimmy! I asked Dr google and the normal range for 4 weeks LMP: 5 - 426 mIU/ml. So your numbers are good. That really sucks that your doctor won't up your progesterone. They should if it's of concern.

Have a relaxed day further x

 

[swimmyj1]

My hcg only went up to 83 in 40 hours so my doctor said it probably isn't viable. I'm going to get another hcg in the morning. If it hasn't gone up she wants me to stop the progesterone. Looking on the bright side at least my DHs swimmers are up
