TTC 10 Months Plus, Supporting Eachother & Staying Positive :) new thread!!

[m33r]

Hopefully we'll see more BFPs on this one!

Hi holly

It could still be too early at 10dpo. Have you had all your pre-ref tests now or do you need to have all the bloods done again? If you still need to book tests before your ref then I'd def not bother poas. If they are all done and GP just needs to send your letter then I guess its your call :-)

Patiently waiting for dh to call me with his results! I wonder when he will, eeek!

Morning Ladies 5/6 days late now and still no signs.

I read this morning that it could be the pregnacare vitamins I will be really pissed off if this is the case

Impatiently waiting for gynae appointment 4 to 8 weeks is way to long!!

FX for everyone with up coming appointments.

Holly very likely to be to early but some people do get a positive that early.

Vicky Fx hurry up dh and call!!

Finally told my mum everything last night she didnt cry or anything which I was thankful for, she went straight into googling things. Although this morning she messaged to say sorry for ever hurting me and asking about kids etc I feel bad for telling her now.

Yes good luck with the referrals Jesse and holly!

I hope something happens for you soon blue. And I'm sure time will fly til your appointment. I was told a timescale for my ultrasound and I got a date way sooner than they said. Hope its the same for you.

Hubby doesn't get his first break at work until 11.45 so I hope he calls doc then. And I'm hoping he's not waiting til he gets home!

Oh and I'm glad I told my mum blue. They do worry about their little girls though don't they? :-) my mum never asks how things are going unless I bring it up. I kind of wish she would ask more so I could blurt stuff out! But at the same time I don't want her to worry about how much it really is affecting me. I'm just acting kinda relaxed, yeah whatever happens kinda thing even though inside I'm dying a bit! I also wish she would not yabber on about my sisters kids all the time tho! She does spend a lot of time with them and doting on them!

I have had bloods done and they all seemed fine. Appointment is to discuss and get letter so I think I will go along, get the ball rolling and see what happens. I have been told there is a 3 month waiting list so it's not as though anything is going yo happem overnight anyway

blue I've never heard if pregnacare delaying AF. I've been taking them for 12months and they've never affected my cycle. I think it's more likely that the mid cycle bleed was AF due to annov cycle so you probably aren't late yet. hang in there chick

Vic I hope he calls you! I hate waiting!

good luck on the referrals. I agree about just getting the ball rolling too.

what happened to the sunshine!

Hi blue, OPK- here so like mb said, just gonna put it down to one of those weird things I guess! :-S

blue I agree with you and lil re men and their libido/ sex drive. It's actually kind of unfair that there is this stereotype of men being randy 24/7 because seems like many of them actually aren't! It must make men feel a bit inadequate at times. Anyway, try not to do your head in with the AF dates and stuff, it must be driving you crazy xoxo

Got first letter through from fertility clinic, just telling me to make sure i've had my bloods done and a rubella test and that DH has had SA done. No date as yet but that will come shortly apparently.

Good luck for DH's results vic!

Grrrrrrrr dh just called me on his lunch break. They wouldn't give him the results on the phone. He's booked to have a call from the doctor at 6pm TOMORROW! FFS! As if we havent waited long enough! Dh is convinced there must be something wrong if the doc needs to break it to him. How did you guys get the results?

How frustrating vic. They sound completely disorganised - one of my personal pet hates! DH got chapter and verse from the receptionist over the phone which made he pretty uncomfortable. ...

try not to stress Vic. we had a phone call from receptionist when results came in telling us we had to book call with Dr. results were bad. but whatever the results its a step forward. stay strong x

Were your hubby's results ok holly? Maybe you only need an appointment when they are bad?! Oh god :-( I need wine!

How's your hubby feeling vic? Is he worried? :-( I hope time passes quickly til tomorrow and that the results are fine in the end xoxo

I've still got some of this spotting and also really strong, sharp cramps this morning that took my breath away. Constant dull/ burning cramps and my boobs are achey inside, but not to touch. Took a PG test just in case (neg) and another OPK (neg). So I am getting kind of worried there's something wrong with me... In fact, I'm really scared! :-( You think about mental things like cancer and stuff.

TMI coming up- the spotting has been kind of... fibrous, if you know what I mean?! Like small threads. My friend thinks that I actually got pregnant, but with the short LP I can't hold it and this is my body just shedding any lining that built up, and my boobs hurt with hormonal fluctuations. Wishfully, I want to agree with her just to believe I can actually get pregnant.

I'm travelling (again!) this week but if there is still something going on by Friday I'll make an appointment for next week I guess.

Hi everyone, good to see how we're all doing.

To report back to you all, I picked up DH's SA results today and everything is fine (phew!) and my day 2 and day 21 bloods came back fine too. The receptionist wouldn't give me DH's over the phone but said I could pick up a print out for him?? His sperm results look really good as his all his levels are way above the lower reference limit. The only thing low was the volume (1.6ml) but the low reference limit is 1.5ml so just scraped in there!

We have our joint appointment next week to send off the referral now.

Good luck Victoria and all those awaiting their results. Can't tell you what a relief it is so fingers crossed its just a matter of time or just unexplained infertility,who knows???

Never mind, onwards and upwards and staying positive as always x

They say how we need to be relaxed and not be stressed and it will happen. But how can we when the so called professionals muck us around.
Dh was able to get his results over the phone and I picked up a print out for our records. Vic, I know all the delay is upsetting, fx all will be revealed one way or another tomorrow.
Lindsay, try not to freak, good plan to see where you're at on your return. Our bodies can be strange, but try not to assume the worst.

Hycosy, and scan tomorrow, really do not want to be doing this….. I never thought I would be in this situation. It's like a bad dream :(

Good luck with your tests tomorrow stepmama. Hope they give you some answers.

Glad all your tests were ok non. You must be so relieved that you're 'normal'

Lindsay I'm sure there is nothing wrong and its just hormones mucking about. What CD are you on today?

DH is walking around with a big rain cloud above his head since he got back from work. I'm trying to be all jolly and sweet but I can't get him to crack any kind of smile. But he never talks to me about how he's feeling really. All he's said about it is "told you there'd be something wrong, didn't I". Even though we don't know if there is yet!

Hey ladies,

Vicky Im glad she finally knows in a way but I do feel bad.
This evening she is googling stuff that might help and sending me loads of stuff.
Cant beleive how annoying they are being with your dh's SA.

Holly glad your bloods were ine Holly.

Lil Ive read loads about pregnacare causing problems with AF and I really do think that might be it. Apprently I havent been ovulating for ages and ive never had midcycle bleeding so I dont think its annovulatory.

Lindsay Men are stupid but we do need them. Sorry about the bleeding.

Non glad dh's sa was fine.

feel like im in limbo at the mo which is annoying.

Ladies how long did you wait before going to the dr? Will I get any help as I already have a baby? Sorryto ask questions but this is all I ever think about. It's horrible, always feel that I must be such an ungrateful co was am blessed to have my ds, but still want more.

Poco they wouldnt look into anything until a year if your under 35 where I am.

That's rubbish! blue
It's really frustrating am getting af, and plans opk three times a day but never peaks all that high. But I must be ovulating to get af. Am on a 60 day cycle too which is total crap.

Poco I have normally regular 28 day cycle and im not ovulating. apprently AF means nothing lol

Thanks for reassuring me girls! I feel a bit less worried today although still majorly achey boobs.

Looking forward to the weekend already!

I have an unscheduled lh surge :) fx

Omg so much to catch up on!

How was gp call Vic?

Fingers crossed for you then poco

step hope all went well today

Jesse at least you are moving in the right direction now

Dh has said tomorrow, I think he's more worried than he is letting on. I'm glad I don't seem to have ov'd yet as no sex since Monday so would at least like one more shot at it this month!!!

Hi girls. Dh's results were a bit abnormal but doc tried to give them to dh in layman terms and gave no indication on how it would affect our ttc! not that dh asked either! He is picking up a copy later. And he has to have it repeated in 3 months time. I'll be looking for any info from you guys later, help! X

Vic why do you have to wait 3 months? that's ridiculous. the fertility clinic booked both my dhs appointments when Dr ordered them and only booked them a month apart. let us know when you get the printout and we'll help you decipher what the drs are incapable of knowing
