TTC for - 12month+ Join here :P we have our 1st bfp!!!

[babyhopes2010]

Hi ladies-I really like this thread-it is very reassuring to know that not everyone gets knocked up within a couple of months! I had a chat with hubby last night and we agreed to try and relax about it all till March when we will have had our 3 clomid rounds. If no luck by then we will reassess depending on what the FS says but he says we wouldnt rule out looking at other things then (hypnotherapy I am quite interested in) and possibly even private clinics depending on waiting list for other treatment. I feel a bit more positive now and I am trying to change my attitude to 'when i get pregnant' rather than 'if I get pregnant'. What will be will be but I guess there is no point being anxious every day and surely it cannot help with things-I appreciate that this is easier said than done but I am REALLY going to try!! I have to do something or I'll drive myself crazy! Its getting a balance with not getting your hopes up, right?

I therefore may take a little bnb break ( not sure how long I'll last though lol!) so good luck and hope to see some more BFP's when I drop by next!! Xxx

To be honest i hated seeing oh bfp after one month blah blah
so i thought lets start a thread then itll be extra special evrytime someone gets there bfp

i have negative attitide and my doc said think 'when' not 'if'
it can play havoc with hormones.iv joined the gym already
have done 19km on bike and 3km running(in gym) since tuesday

Don't know why I haven't found this thread before. May I join? This is 24th month TTC, though I'm not temping or using OPKs (I do have 3 apps on my iPod touch though lol).

Haven't been to see a doctor, but DH agreed that if by the end of March we've had no luck that we will go. As we weren't trying too hard for the first 18 months (in DH's mind anyway lol) and most likely just didn't BD enough. We don't even have a doctor, as we're new to the country, so that will make things interesting. So if this cycle isn't it for me (and AF is due on Tuesday) then 3 more cycles til we try to get some answers.

If there is a problem I hope it's on my end rather than DH's cause he's had such a rough go of things the last 3 years I don't know what it would do to his ego if he's the cause of our inability to have a baby.

Oh, and I've never been on birth control and have fairly regular cycles (23-26 days) though the last 5 have been regularly 26.

 

[Lisa40]

ndh and welcome to the thread.

Do you know how long your luteal phase is and have you ever had a but miscarried or just no ?

Xx

I've never had a , but I think I either had a chemical or an early MC in January 2009. AF was a week late but the bleeding started before I got around to taking a test. No cramping, but I absolutely soaked the sheets with blood over night, right through the mattress pad too. Didn't go to the doctor to confirm though, as I had recently moved and didn't have a doctor (story of my life lol).

Also, not sure of my LP, but going by my CM I think it's a pretty regular 14 days. But been trying to BD every other day from the end of AF just to be sure.

I might start temping in Feb if I'm still not pregnant in this or the next cycle, but I really don't want to get too obsessive with TTC.

Hi ladies, just got back from the doctors good news for hubby his sperm is absolutely fine, but not so good for me I never thought this would of been my problem but in a way I'm happy about now as it can be sorted relatively easy, so it seems I'm not ovulating my progesterone levels were 12 and they should be 35 or over, I was gutted as I was a hundred per cent sure I was ovulating just goes to show you can't trust the clearblue fertility monitors I'm so glad I stopped using it. So the next step is that I do 2 more lots of bloods, then we will get referred for sure, probably to Bath fertility Unit, and it looks like we will be doing clomid which I'm kind of relieved about as I was sure I had a blockage or a major problem that would require IVF. So we finally have our silver lining and we will have a child at some point in the near future f'xd and baby dust to all of you girls on here and here is hoping we all get our much awaited 2011 BFP's x

 

[Lisa40]

Yeah I know what you mean ndh,it can take over your life and no matter what you do it's only the that matters lol

I like to temp to confirm ov as oh doesn't have the largest sex drive so I can let him off when I know it's happened haha. X

babyhopes- well at least it's something fixable and are getting the help you need. best of luck in getting your sticky bean.

KittyCat82, I hope the break and relaxed attitude helps and you come back with a announcement.

Slb80 my sister had two unplanned children, it just seems so unfair, just the other day my mum (who doesnt know we are TTC) said that ,my sister had better be careful as she so fertile, and that really hit me hard thinking how unfair everything seems, so I cant imagine how hard it would hit me if she was too get pregnant by accident again. All you can do is give yourself some time and remember that your time will come.

Aster, so pleased that the scan went well , hopefully the cyst will be nothing to worry about and will sort itself out.

Babyhopes, so glad that you got your positive OPK and can go for your tests next week.

MrsHowley81 on your test results but hopefully like you said this is the start of the answer for you, and good that its fixable and that you are now a step closer to your

NDH

Nothing really for me to report, we are waiting for DH appointment for his SA to come through, in the meantime I am on cd20 with no real sign of O, looks like its going to be another long cycle for me

[Trying 2 cope]

Hey ladies,
only 5 days to my fertility specialist appointment. Starting to get a bit nervous. Am 5 dpo, bit tired but think im getting sick, have sore throat. Work is really crap and im just longing for my bfp and a new focus. Want the mommy job instead.

 

[xxxemsxxx]

Hi trying to cope, I hope that your FS appointment goes well.

Hopefully it will give you some answers and I hope that your is just around the corner. Please let us know how you get on.

My job is horrible at the minute too, and the girl I work with goes off on maternity leave next month, I just sooooo wish that it was me going off as well to have a baby. xxx

Glad you see some light at the end of the tunnel! so did your fertility monitor say you peaked, but in reality, you weren't ovulating?! this is my fear! and i'm wondering if that is our problem!?!?

 

[NDH]

Well I'm on to cycle 25... AF got me 2 hours ago. Hoping 25th cycle is the charm.
