Ttc #1

[minnieb2016]

Hi! Looking for a buddy to go through this all.

A little about me, I live in Staten Island, I'm 34 going on 35, with my husband for 11 years married 3, have been trying to conceive baby #1 for almost two years now. I've done a hysterosalpingogram and it determined that I have one viable tube that is clear. The other one is completely blocked. I have hypothyroidism.

Most of my friends have kids already so I'm looking for a buddy to go through this stressful ordeal with and just want to get some feedback from those that are dealing with similar issues.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi,

I am 32 years old, live in Des Moines, Iowa, and I am trying to conceive as well. My husband and I planned to start trying to conceive last spring, and we sort of tried one month, and then we had some things come up (mostly me and some emotional stuff going on) that led us to wait a little longer. Then, we started trying to conceive again in December. I just found out that I have a "uterine septum," and that I will be getting some testing done to find out whether it is to a degree that would cause problems with fertility/conceiving.

My co-workers are almost all either pregnant or have young children, so I feel very left out often. I would be interested in being your TTC buddy if you are still looking for one!

I'll join! I'll be 34 in April. Out south of Los Angeles in California. Ttc#1 Aug-Dec. BFP 12.31.15 on cycle 6 but ended in MMC. Back to ttc in March...just waiting for AF to arrive. Hoping for a second chance before August.

How are you both doing? Where are you at in your cycles?

Hi all!

I just turned 25 in Januray. Me and DH got married this last July, we have been together since we were 18 years old. A little about our journey, I stopped bc pills in August 2014 because the pills had made my period stop. I've always been fairly irregular so we decided to start ttc about a year before the wedding because I knew it may take a while because of my irregularity. I had fairly normal cycles up until May 2015. After May I went until Septemebr without a period (even in Sept it was VERY light). After a year ttc i went to my doctor, she sent me for ultrasound and everything came back ok. I was referred to an ob in October but my appointment wasn't until May 2016 (it's a huge wait time where I live). I was so emtionally upset and starting to go through depression. I couldn't understand why this was happening to us. I called a ob in another city who got me in for the beginning of December. He is AMAZING! I have never had a doctor so kind and caring. He sent me for a blood work to test my hormones and a HSG test, both came back good. I am on my second round of provera to start my period and then I will start clomid. I am feeling really positive and hopeful that the clomid will be our answer. I still have tough days where I slip back into sadness but try to remain positive.

I normally only have hubby to talk to these things about and he does not always understand. This is my first time posting online. It's actually kind of relieving to write my feelings down.

Your hardest times often lead to the greatest moments of your life. Keep the faith. It will all be worth it in the end. I know it can be hard to stay positive sometimes, but all we can do is try. Good luck ladies!
