Trying for a Baby Part 8

Metranil_Vavin

Code - my OH seemed to lose some of his enthusiasm recently about TTC too. It is sooo frustrating when it means everything to you, and yet it seems like OH isn't that bothered.

I tend to think in my case though that he just doesn't want me to get too stressed about the whole thing.

I wholeheartedly agree with Q though that us girls need to be in charge when it comes to the whole thing!

I think you should still post on here :D When I was first trying, I didn't really worry by any other ladies who were trying after losses or struggling. I was so overly optimistic and naive and thought everything would be just peachy. So it didn't put me off if people were struggling etc. It might also help people to be more realistic about how difficult a journey it can be for some people. Hugs for being in pain. Will they be operating to clear your tubes? Did they give you a timescale to work towards?

No, no definite plan yet. I see the FS on the 4th Sept. Seems like the worst 2/3ww ever atm...

Thanks MV

I also stopped posting on here cos there was a lot going on with MIL (before she died and the sorting things out after too) and I didn't have much directly TTC to say and wasn't in the right place for this thread.

TBH it's been a really sh*tty year, and I'm aware of how many of the ladies that were on here (when I was posting more) have graduated now, less aware of how many actually still remember me So I only tend to chime in when I think there's something I might be able to answer/add to

Ok so unsure what to think. I did the test and I'm sure with some tweaking there would be the faintest of lines. Not sure really though. To test or not in the morning :-/

Niknok - Get a bl00dy digi and be done with it! Lol. Someone (on here) told me to hold the test at arms length...if you can see a line then it's positive. If you can't, it's not. Maybe try that and see what you think?

Zippy - Please do not ever think you are not welcome here! We all need to vent from time to time and you have had some bad news that has (understandably!) upset you. We are here to suppport you at times like this so please do stay

Abis - You are right. It has lengthened my LP so that is something good. I will show you the picture when I get home from my mums, but I did a CBFM test stick (because I couldn't stop myself) and it is very clearly positive. Maybe my body is going to ov again? I will just keep BD'ing and see what happens. I heard back from the hospital that I won't have my HSG until atleast October and that just seems like a long way a way. I have been feeling very very very teary today and everything is just all getting on top of me. I am a silly control freak and this whole TTC shabang is really taking it's toll now. Right, enough whinging.

On a side note, does anyone else think car insurance is utterly ridiculouw nowadays?

I miss you when you don't post Zippy, I like to know how you're doing! I don't read the 12m+ thread too much as I struggle just to keep up on here never mind the other threads! I also remember when I started I found it useful to read about the difficulties some of our ladies were having as it really opened my eyes to the realities of TTC. Sadly I think that the women who get PG on their first month trying are the odd ones now!

Big hugs for Lily.

Noknok, try testing again in the morning. Got my fingers crossed for you!

Hiya BigZ, I am still around! I do remember some late night crazy chats with you and secrets. I'm a bit quieter now as nothing seems to change, but I am not ready to move across to 12m+ just yet.

Secrets has gone very quiet too - are you still around? *shouts out to secretdebts*

I often think of you actually. I am having a problem with too light periods now, and when I go to complain I always think of you. Earlier in the year I seem to remember when you first had the never ending AF, and obviously it hasn't gotten much better. (cue dodgy hug :grouphug: )

I have noticed some people around on other parts of the board mentioning being 8/9 months pregnant, and I remember when they were on this board. Really brings home how long nothing has been happening. But, I am still fairly upbeat about it - up and down days, but I still hope every month.

This month things are a bit strange. Which is good, as anything not normal means there is a chance of a different result! Pretty sure we BD at the right time as I could feel my cervix being 'high' as it's supposed to be. Since then I have been very (oddly) dry - which is probably a bad sign, but at least it's different to normal. Very senstive nipples etc, but someone once said that was sort of a symptom of ovulation and is fairly normal for me. And I'm 4DPO so I should stop thinking about it all!

cheers all. Hope you are all enjoying the sunshine! :beer::beer:

Hi ladies,

Can't stop as I am having childcare issues.

I'm not pregnant, but have really messed up my cycles with this bl00dy soy. What do u lot suggest I do? Wait for AF to arrive, or go and speak to a GP and see what they say? I'm actually quite upset that i've messed with things.

Nik - That test looks exactly like the test sticks for the CBFM! Hope its a bfp anyway

MrsJ - Just read your rubbish news about pcos and no referal. That is royally rubbish Are you going to go private do you think? Good luck with what ever you do

Massive hugs to anyone who needs them. I could do with some love

Thanks lilymay - we are going to have a consultation with a private FS and see where we go from there. We are not really sure how much things will cost at the moment, but will definitely have the consultation. I was talking to a friend this evening and she suggested I see a different doctor on the NHS to ask for a second opinion/to see if I can get a referral. As TeamLowe suggested, maybe I'll hunt down the cute young male doctor who gets embarrassed by my lady problems so refers me immediately to somebody who won't be so embarrassed

I dont think youve messed anything up I think its one of 3 things:

1. The soy has lengthened your luteal phase - which is what you were worried about before - so thats good!
2. Youve just naturally had a longer luteal phase which is good too.
3. Youre pg. And the positive on your ov stick was a sign of that. Or, you didnt ov when you thought you did, and youre about to now.
