Oh my gosh - so many expats!! I am also from South Africa. I'm from Cape Town!!

haha we really are everywhere. my dads family are from cape town. i was born in durban though. have you been in england long?

Hi, yes I have been here almost 9 years now!! I cant believe how long it has been.
Where about in CT are you from? I'm from Edgemead

Where about in Dublin are you? My brother lives in Clonsilla. Yes we are everywhere!!![/QUOTE

Hi, no definitely settling here for now. With all my family here now, there's no point going back now. I still plan on going back after my wedding for a CT party and to show DF as he's never been there!
Ja, my brother came over 10 years ago to work in hospitality industry. He's just got his citizenship.

And you?

Im from durbanville. Im living in Cork, 6 and a half years now. I know time goes by so fast. any plans on moving back any time son? Oh does he.

Oh no seemS like trying to reply to posts while on my iPod is more tricky than I expected. My reply looks like it's in your post! Gggrrr
Hope everyone is doing well.
I have my HSG scan tomorrow afternoon. I am really looking forward to this.

 

[MrsOjo]

Oh, you need to tell me all about this when you get back. All the best, I'm sure you will get the all clear

 

[skweek35]

I sure will be posting tomorrow night, either way.

I'm a bit frustrated right now tbh, I spent at least 3hrs today trying to book my transvaginal and HSG, I finally managed to get through to somebody and they were so abrupt with me, no sensitivity what so ever. Well, the transvag will be this Friday afternoon, and the HSG next wednesday morning, so basically cd5 & cd10 - the upper limit for each test.
The annoying thing is that my FS appointment is next Wednesday early morning and my HSG is late morning, I told the lady that the HSG had to be before my FS appointment and she just didn't care, she was like, that's the appointment left. So I don't know what to do now, we are suppose to discuss the results, I have waited 2 months for this, why did my AF have to come the week before the FS appointment? So annoying.

Do you think I need to postpone my appointment? What if I need to wait another 2 months? Aaargh, so pissed off right now.

Sorry for the rant

Hi ladies,

Is it too late to join this super busy thread???
I'm TTC #2, been trying for about 14 months, been diagnosed with unexplained secondary fertility (yippie); all tests (progesterone, sperm, hsg) have been good, so we're trying acupuncture and chinese herbs to regulate my hormones and hope for that elusive BFP. It was so easy the first time, that I just took it for granted. I'm 31 and DH is 39 also; DS is 3.

Good luck to everyone!! I hope this is a lucky thread; I'm really hoping for a 2012 baby!

 

[MrsOjo]

Welcome annabelle29, baby dust to you

 

[skweek35]

Hi ladies,
Welcome to Annabelle, FXed your elusive BFP comes really soon!

Well back from hospital. The HSG scan was pretty uncomfortable to say the least. Fortunately the discomfort was very short lived!! The doctor said that it all looked pretty good but to wait for the formal results at my next FS appointment. Apparently the specialists will have a look at the xrays and relay the results to the specialist in the next few days.
Bit of a bummer - my mom spotted me making my way home during lunch time. She phoned me to find out why!! GGRRR she doesnt know that we are TTCing and therefore no ways she is finding out about this scan either. She is a qualified midwife and therefore knows more that is good for me right now.
I told her that I had an ultra sound scan booked for this afternoon and because of the time, boss said to take the whole afternoon off. bugger!!! I should have told my mom that I was just running home for something!! gggrrr
Oh well, all is done. Now just to get down to BDing and get that BFP!!

Welcome Annabelle!! Secondary infertility must be tough. I havent been trying that long but TTC #3 has def not gone as smooth as I thought. Keep your head up and I hope you are blessed with a BFP or some answers real soon.

Hello, another update. I went to the doctor and he put me on 50mg of Clomid. Which I am confused to where everyone else is buying it because every where I read it said it costed anywhere from 75-100 dollars. I only paid, at Walmart and no insurance, 9 bucks.

Anyway, the pain in my lower abdomen I experienced a few months back, thought it may have been a cyst rupture, turned out to be a blood vessel burst. OUCH. Hope that is something that happens often.

He stated as for the light brown spotting it was probably low estrogen. So, I asked the dumbest of all questions.... hehe.... well, what do we do for that? He goes well duh clomid.

Anyway, he said every thing sounds and looks fine and said he bets this month is my month. I guess we will see. I have been on clomid since day 5 of my cycle. I will start my OPKs Friday which will be the last day of my pill also. I will keep everyone informed.



hehe sorry thought the bugger was cute!

I got my scripts at Walmart and my Provera was $4 and my Clomid runs me $9 now $18 since my dosage doubled. I think it's great that it's that cheap since every other method is a whole lot more expensive than that. Hopefully it'll work for you. I'll find out in about a week whether 100 mg worked for me since 50 mg didn't. Fingers and toes crossed here!

Ya I already have 2 kiddos, conceived naturally. He mainly put me on it because he believes I wasn't ovulating due to the marina iud. We will see what happens. He is so sure it will work this time that I don't even have to go in for ultrasounds or anything like that. If it don't work this time he will put me on 100mg. I have high hopes it will work!

I am 27 years old. I have two kiddos already conceived naturally after a surgery and a dnc. I had endometriosis and my tubes and uterus had protein and mucus plugging them up. I had the marina IUD placed after I had my dd. Had it removed in June after 2 years of having it placed. So this is my 7th month. But my doctor is amazing. He does pretty much whatever I want him to. He wanted me on clomid since 2 months of trying, but I decided against it at the time. Wanted to see if I could do it naturally first. I conceived both my kids on month 2 of trying after the procedures. I used ntnp for several years and had a lot of tummy issues. Finally a doctor listened and took care of it. 4 months later my baby boy was conceived!!!!!!!!!!

I hope this cycle brings you a BFP.

Thanks! Yeah im going on 28 in March, I had a paragard IUD removed first week ok October. It doesnt have hormones though & my son was concieved immediately after removing it in 2005. I just cant imagine waiting a full year before being seen. I think I will give it another 2-3 months tops then make an appt with another doctor.

is your doctor refusing to put you on anything to help you conceive? Doctors can make me mad sometimes. It isn't like we can get high or addicted to them. I know you can buy them online I have seen posts about it. The sites and such I have no clue you would have to research it. Good luck and I hope you get your BFP soon!!!!!!
