Trying to conceive! Month 18!

Hey jurney, it's nice to hear from you. Glad that your visits to the psychologist helped, it's good to talk and get things off your chest.
I've still not had a glimmer of a bfp. Oh and I had our appointment with the fertility nurse at the hospital last month which is a step in the right direction. I had blood taken at that appointment and then on cd18 I had to go to my gp to get another load taken. She is inclined to think I have a polyp which is acting like a coil but until I have an internal exam we won't know for sure. My blood results won't be back until the new year, ridiculously slow!! We actually took oh sample into the lab this morning and hopefully we'll know before Xmas if he is in good working order. We are now ntnp until the results are back cos the stress was just getting way to much and it was feeling like we're fighting a losing battle!
What procedures are being considered for you this week?
I actually got blood test results today from a doctor I went see 2 weeks ago and they show I have PCOS! She saw signs of this on the scan and did the blood test to confirm so I now have PCOS and have to have treatment for this. Strange that the other two doctors I went to didn't pick this up before. I suppose I was also on the clomid at the time so that could have hidden any PCOS signs too. I've got an appointment in the new year with a private specialist that I saw a few months ago to discuss my lack of progress anyway so I'll start the treatment for PCOS and go and see him on 3rd Jan to see what he says about it all. Lets see if the new year brings with it good luck to us all.
Good to hear you are making some progress with the testing. Its good having something to blame it on as I find it worse if they say there is nothing wrong and it still doesn't happen. I'd rather have a reason for it not happening. At the moment I've had a few scans, taken clomid for 5 months, tried OPKs, EPO, got tubes checked, had a blood test and DH had his sailors checked. I think there are a few more tests that can be done but not sure what they are, will ask specialist when we go to see him.

hiii, i completely know what your going through. I too have been trying to get pregnant for 6 months at least, but using no protection for at least a year. It's definetly discouraging . Also everyone around me has been getting pregnant. Some even unwanted pregnancy ....it makes me think, why can they not want to get pregnant , have sex one time and , I want to get pregnant and do it more than once during my ovulation time....ugh.... 
I'm glad I found this place!

welcome to b'n'b
Hi alba angel, It sure is depressing when people around seem to just blink and they are pregnant! A couple of my relatives got pregnant within a few months and there's me and oh trying everything possible and still getting nowhere! I hope you get your bfp really soon

Hi AlbaAngel
Welcome to this site. Yes everyone around me seems to be pregnant but me so I know whwre you are coming from. I don't understand it either, it seems so unfair that a couple who really want a baby cannot have one but others who don't seem to get pregnant so easily. Hope you get a BFP soon.
