TTC 2012 Group Year of the ball, Year of the bump

Ag tog Tanasha! Is the guy crazy or what? 2 years is unacceptable You would think him being and *specialising* in the fertility field he would be more pro-active!! My cousin and her hubby also had fertility problems and they were also told they are young and need to wait it out and keep trying it will happen. Well 3yrs down the line when they changed FS, it was found that her hubby had some kinda problem with producing sperm and in the last few years it has deteriorated (sp) so much that they had a 1% chance of falling pregnant naturally. grrrr.. But eventually they had IVF done and now has a beautiful 3month old son So if you feel 2yrs is too long then your FS should actually support you. Thats why he is there!!??

Its hard now to tell what your chart is doing with this mornings temp not being accurate. But Ive also found that after waking your temp rises a bit. But leave it like that, we will see what it does tomoz.

Anyway, I also still think your preggie, so do one of your *good* test tomorrow morning. Well show him

Hayley, yip, going going .. FX that your egggie is on its way!!

Hi all
My post from yesterday is missing!!!
Anyway it was to Tanasha explaining the first FS consult - now a little late- Don't worry about the FS's disinterest in the charting, my FS also wasn't keen on charting, I used it anyway and it really helped me. Hope that you are already preggy.

Usually the later you take the temp the higher it will be - so for every hour later a .5 degree C is added. After waking and rising - being active one's basal temp increases.

Andy FXFXFX- that AF doesn't show!
Hayley - hope you get better soon.

Morning everybody!!

TaNasha, honestly I pretty much thought that's what the FS response would be. FS usually only get involved if a couple has SERIOUS fertility issues or if they've been trying for more than a year with no results.

Your temp will definately be affected by you being awake for a while before taking it. So maybe just change it sleep deprived again so that FF disregards that temp? I tried to find out if you temp goes up or down when you've been awake for a while but couldn't find an answer. But it's a good thing that it didn't go down and rather stayed the same!! When you test tomorrow morning, be sure to use one of your sensitive tests AND DON'T LISTEN TO THE GIRLS ON HERE AND GO AND TEST TONIGHT WHEN YOU GET HOME!!!! (That's meant for you Hayley and Meags!! ) Rather wait until tomorrow morning.

It is extremely quiet in here!! There's not even anything else to comment on

Nothing to report on my side. 9DPO today and I'm not having those funny cramps anymore and my cm seems a little more than usual. My boobs aren't as sore anymore either. So just another 5 days to wait for AF.

Oooohhh... We went to see Step Up 3D last night!! SUPER COOL!!! I loved it!! I'm a huge Step Up fan so I thoroughly enjoyed myself. And the eye candy... Hmmmmm

Hi ladies

how are you all today???

TaNasha, some people just don't get it...try for another TWO years because you're young???? That's a long time to try...

Well, I hope you are already pregnant...maybe they will see the egg in the uterus when you have your internal scan? I had my first scan 2 and a half weeks after ovulation and just saw a little speck there. hope its the same with you.

Thanks Ika

The appointment was ok, he just asked a few questions and he didnt seem very interested in my chart. i told me not to expect much as he still thinks we are young and we should just try for another 2 years or so! HE also didn't want to send me for bloods, they only do that if you havent had a period for 60 days.

I have 2 more appointents- 1 at the boimetrie (?) department for an echo and then another for an internal exam and then he said perhaps the week after a HSG.

My temp is still the same- even though i took it about an hour later and i was already awake for about 10 mins, i dont know if that would have made a big difference?

I didn't POAS this morning, thought i would just wait it out. Maybe i will try again tomorrow.

How are all of you doing?

Hayley it is very sweet that DH still wants to try even with the Bronchitis! Hope he gets better soon!

Thanks Andy! Your are the TTC Queen!

I have printed my charts and already put them in nice folders. Any idea what this 1st FS appointment will be like? Will they just ask us questions? Or will they need to do an exam aswell?

My fisrt appointment:

We talked. I showed my charts and he was not that interested about it. He said that I will need to go for a series of blood test. We arrenged that I would return on cd 12. He then did a internal scan, we saw I had a little bean that was a miscarrage from a hwile ago and that I had PCOS, he then said I should come back in 2 weeks so that we can see if that has gone away.
He expleined to me what he thinks might be a problem, what is the general issues, what treatments we can expect.

I was very happy when I left as I knew we where heading into a direction.

I went back on CD 12 and we saw two good eggs. He also checked my CM and I did not have a lot, and also the PH was off, so no chance to concieve, we then said we will do a IUI the next day. And I had a Ovidrel shot.

I then went back for the IUI, went well.

The next vist we got a BFN, and then we talked about the way foward. I opt in to rather lose weight first.

Next visit will be in a months time.

Morning ladies,

Hope you all well, TaNasha im still holding thumbs for you, goodluck with your FS appointment today, cant wait to hear what he/she has to say...

Strikkie, Ilse, Ika, Andy how you ladies doing?

Hello Marinda, how you doing? Well, for the last 2 weeks i have been taking Fertile XX and hubby taking the Fertile XY and it is all herbal but that's not what the Homeopath has sugessted, so no, im no longer seeing the Homeopath... I have given myself a POA for the next 6 months with the Fertile XX/XY

Girls, hubby is so sick with Bronchitis and is booked off till Monday, but he at least still wants to try this month to fall preggies... Makes me happy....

But now, it looks as though my chart is doing weird and wonderful things again...
