The Trials and Tribulations of Trying to Conceive when its just not happening (12m+)

Runnerduck

sorry amara, i had 2 healthy babies 15+ years ago and recently had 2 m/c, i am now in the 2ww with my second icsi so i cant be much help sorry, i know 3 peolple who have had 1 m/c each and then had healthy babies, so hopefully you will be lucky next time xxx

Amara, my SIL had 4 miscarriages timed before her first, then before her 2nd child. You certainly can suffer from mc and then have successful pregnancies without intervention, so please don't feel that it will never happen for you. Hopefully you'll never need the investigations and the next time will be it for you. Fingers crossed for you.

Good luck runner

I phoned the GP on Friday to get my blood test results, and all the receptionist could say was 'it says they are all normal dear' :eek: No help at all. The GP is going to ring me tomorrow with the actual numbers. &*^%$!!!!! Not dealing with the thought of the upcoming HSG very well, but my self hypnosis CD has arrived, and I'll try that. Am trying progesterone cream this month too. Grasping at straws? Who, me?!

Hi Onestep

i had my HSG on friday and honestly it doesnt hurt one bit.....it is uncomfortable like a smear but i thought it would hurt a lot!!!...it takes 10 mins to set up but only 5 mins to complete
i dont get my results back until september..........................
all my blood tests have come back fine too

Thank you very much I love holidays I'm so glad to hear that!! Sounds like we're at about the same stage..

onestep

ok so here are the results so far:
FSH 6.5
LH 3.2
Prolactin 287

Any thoughts? I've still got to arrange AMH (anybody know which cd?!) and another progesterone

Hope everyone else is ok?

Runnerduck

hi, sorry the results dont mean much to me, as the problem was with oh i didn't really have many tests, i'm sure someone on here will have some advice, i did hav the progetrogen but all they told me was it was fine. good luck with it all.

i had a very down day yesterday with a few tears but have picked myself up today, having a lot of cramping today, but not too worried as i had that last time just wish the 2ww would pass a bit quicker!

((hugs)) runner I can't bear the 2ww either. Hope you're doing some nice things to take your mind off the wait.

Hope it's all good signs runner, I had a fees tears last time to and it had not even been a week.

Onestep, FSH sounds good but not sure on the others. I had my AMH a week after my period if that's any help.

Got my next clinic appointment on Friday hoping to get to the next step whatever that may be.

AMH is anytime, its the FSH which is taken on day 1-3.

Hi everyone, sorry to be MIA, have been taking some time for me xx

Good luck Runnerduck, will hold my breath for you XXX

Well, AF arrived here on Friday, so day 32, which is an improvement on 3 months so hopefully the treatments etc are having an effect. Am feeling a wee bit better in myself, so somewhere along the line things must be doing me good. Have had 3 Manual Lymphatic Drainage sessions, so hopefully should start losing a bit of the fluid. Weight is awful as the Lymphodaema has been flaring up - Over 10 pounds worth of fluid! Have successfully reduced the coffee to only 3 a day, and having herbal teas instead. And have only been using organic products etc. Diet not too bad, still a bit too much red meat, but on the whole good.

Good luck to everyone, glad to see things are moving on for you all
