Waiting Game

Hi

Was just wondering if anyone was in a similar situation to me and wanted to chat.

I am currently waiting for my appoinment at the fertility clinic (waiting list 8 weeks, have already waited 4) have had tests done at GP's and other half is fine. My progestrone levels were 1!!!

So at the moment i am not really ttc as it is very unlikely to happen, but hopefully when and if they put me on clomid i am going to go hell for leather (is that the saying) Grin

I have also just started acupunture to see if this helps.

Sorry am rambling on but would love someone else to talk to who is ttc but not really IYSWIM Smile

ah prob is - they don't put you on waiting list! well not me anyway - cos of age (30's top end) and cos of dd - we're going to have to pay Sad so no holidays this year, but really want to guve it a go as would love DD to have a sib.

hoping it will work first time Grin or who knows could work naturally.

why does it have to be so hard? know what you mean bout frustration - only been rying 6 months

Madrose..that's good to hear that you can have IUI again. I was worried that once you'd had it to conceive one they may not put you back on the waiting list.
How long have you had to wait the second time before they allowed you to have your fertility appointment?

Natty..no help to you I'm afraid Blush. Just saw Madrose's post and it's something I've been thinking/ worrying about for a while. If I can only conceive with treatment, will I be allowed more than one.
Sorry to crash your thread with no helpful comment for you.

hi, like you waiting for appointment at fert unit for IUI & possibly clomid too. but trying it the natural way too, but not really holding out much hope as needed iui to conceive DD.

Tried 6 years the natural way, had all the tests but nowt wrong, still don't know why we didn't get pregnant. Going to try acupunture (thanks for the reminder Grin and reflexology so see if that will help.

Hope you appt comes soon and good luck
