My TTC journey .. testing commences!

[chattychar1990]

Yeah, you are so good at being supportive and giving advice to other ladies. Now it's your turn to take it! Lol. I'm really good, feel so much better knowing my uterus is good. Still have some results to go but feeling good. I've just had my acupuncture, I was falling asleep on the table! It was so relaxing. So I've come home and having a lie down under the blanket, dont judge xx

Thank you hun
It’s brilliant news that your all good in there. I just know your going to get your bfp in 2020, hopefully close to me that would be amazing.
I’m not judging, I’ve already had a nap today and ready for another one ahaha xx

Ah thank you! I know, this was my 4th session and it's the first time I've properly started to doze off!

Just thought I'd post a little update.

Today I had my blood test for AMH. I also had swabs done to check for infections. I am more than used to the prodding and poking down there (smear tests, lletz treatment, vaginal ultrasounds, hysteroscopy) but wow. It was awful! She used a massive speculum which looked and felt nothing like the clear plastic ones they usually use. She must have done like 3 swabs and 2 of them were ones into my cervix - it was worse than a smear! Felt like she was stabbing my poor cervix with a sharp knife! I am usually unbothered by things like this but it was so uncomfortable. Also she was showing someone how to do it so she was taking her time! Bah! I just laid there and kept thinking of the end goal in this, my baby. So, I need to call in a week to see if there was any infections found. Next up and last is the HSG.

I feel incredibly tired today, I fell asleep on the sofa after yoga, have not done that for a good while. Just generally feel a bit deflated, maybe it was just the traumatic experience! I've started using my Ava bracelet and ovulation isn't confirmed yet, think I'm on day 19, so its gonna be another long cycle I think

Thank you Sock! Was not expecting today to be so uncomfortable. How are you getting on?

I was massively depressed on Monday and Tuesday after our consultant appointment but I feel ok now. I just want the letter to arrive now so we can have our first IVF appointment date, haha.

I had a phone call from the hospital and my swabs all came back clear. Good news, no antibiotics required.

However I had bad news this morning that my nana has passed away. She had dementia, and was given days to live at the beginning of december, she has always loved to defy all medical expectations. But, she was starting to really suffer more than ever and knew she wasnt going to get better, so I guess she gave up her fight. I am very sad however I'm talking comfort in the fact shes no longer suffering. My lovely nana Joyce

I need to call to book it when I get my period. Yeah I'll make sure I do, I'm so glad it's the last one! I just feel like thinking negatively about it all will mean it's even less likely to happen. It's going to happen for me and I'm going to get my baby. My mother and her mother and all the mothers before them did it, so can I! I'm glad you're feeling ok for the most part. Try and savour it, the first trimester is a drag but everyone I've spoken to says it flies by after that! Xxx

This man is the best solution to every single mother around the globe. distance is not a barrier, he will surely make your dreams come through. contact him today via email: [email protected]
