Hi everybody! My name is Rachel, I am 27 years old my husband is 30. I know that there are a lot of acronyms for this pregnancy and conception lingo, but I need a freaking dictionary for all that. So bear with me, I will do the best that I can.
My husband and I have been actively TTC since Feb. 2013. I had an HSG in April of 2012 and found out that my right fallopian tube is blocked after having a massive cyst on my left ovary that left significant scar tissue. My sister had PCOS and my mother suffers from endometriosis. I had my first period when I was 8 years old and started having it regularly at 10 years old. I guess you can say that I got the extremely crappy end of the woman problems stick.
Since Feb. 2012 I have lost 70 lbs, quit smoking, and have dramatically changed my lifestyle. My doctor says that even with my right tube being blocked I should have no problem conceiving. I have been taking my temp. every morning for the past 3 months, everything is good there, we have sex on a VERY regular basis, hubby is normal (at least in the swimmers department), and everything should be good to go.
As of today, 31 July 2013, I am 4 days late for my period and have had 2 negative pregnancy tests. I have been tracking my period ever since my HSG and have been very regular. I swear I can look at the calendar and determine when I am going to start. I have NO symptoms, normally every month my boobs are sore and I have that heavy stomach feeling right before I start, but nothing. I am very anxious and just wish I would start my period or get a positive test. I called my doctor and he said to wait a little longer to come in for a blood test. I have gained about 9 lbs over the last 1 ½ months, but chalk it up to stress and poor choices. My husband admitted to me today that he is scared to have sex out of fear that he will mess something up. So now Im cut off from sex as well. I am so ready to find out what is going on with my body. My husband commented that the last time we had sex it felt different, Im not sure if thats even possible.
I need some advice!
