Just been for our appt. It was so quick she asked us a few questions looked at DH sperm results and she said were excellent and my ovulation bloods really good level at 44 so I habe been refered for a hsg scan or whatever it's called in 4-6 weeks time. She said cant ttc during the time leading up to tne scan so that will be our break I giess. I've to go back in January for next steps after than. Feel better for starting the ball rolling.

Glad your appointment went well Alexis. When I went for my HSG, they were very specific about only doing it within the first 10 days of cycle so they can be as sure as they can be that you're not pregnant. I think I ended up having mine on CD6 and only had slight discomfort for about a day after so we ended up not having to miss a month. Hope that's helpful.

Ah yeah I see what you mean so if you did it straight atfer af you can still try. They are just sending me an appt by post so not sure how that will work. Did you go back to work after it? I haven't told my work anything yet...wanted to wait till had all the tests to see what the plan was. If the hsg comes back normal then not sure where that leaves us? Does the hsg show up any ovary problems she never mentioned scanning my ovaries? I am dreading the hsg is it not horrible?? Smears are bad enough! I am just frustrated they havent found a reason for it not to be haopening. Its not like we even have lower results she used the words fantastic amd excellent on our results. Nothibg nakes sence. My mum is 1 of 7 and my gran was like one of like 5 and then all down ganily tree loads of babies and twins. ( i am a non identical twin) we have always had bad luck with everything...eg honeymoon flights got cancelled then they lost both our cases.....make up and hair person cancelled on morning of my wedding....maid of honor got drunk had a argument and left and we never spoke again.I dunno just examples of nothing going right ever for us. My mum says I've worst luck ever and I call it the curse ! I am fed up of it

The letter I got sent basically said we have your referral, call this number on CD1 and we will schedule you which they did. Not sure if it's the same everywhere. As far as I understand, the HSG just tells them if the tubes are clear or not. Surprised they didn't want to scan you as well.

As for my experience of the HSG, I prepared myself for the worst and took paracetamol and ibuprofen before it as they suggested though I'm not sure how useful it was. I really didn't find it that bad in all honesty. The initial set up part was a bit like a smear, no better or worse I would say then it was just a bit crampy when they flushed the dye. For me personally, period pain was worse. Mine wasn't the most straightforward either. The tubes wouldn't flush initially, then the catheter fell out so they had to start again, then they flushed fine. It wasn't the best but if I had to have another one it wouldn't bother me. Not sure what sort of nursing you do but I went straight back to work after and barely felt anything after they were done. Had a small amount of spotting for a day or 2 and felt happy to dtd again after the spotting stopped. Hope that puts your mind at rest.

I am totally in that zone at the minute too but I'm trying to think positive, we WILL both get there! Congrats to all the BFP's! October started badly but at least we're ending on a high happy and healthy nine months to you all!

 

[millielaura]

Alexis I'm sorry. Has it turned into full on AF?
Yeah they should do a normal ultrasound too to check ovaries etc? xx

I'm also struggling to get out of that mindset at the moment. I really just feel like we're going through the motions. Getting harder and harder to believe.

No just that one clot but I no more will follow tmrw. Just such a shock to see it so early. My LH surge was only 10 days ago and normally have 13 days min post ovulation till af shows up. I had temp dip 3 days ago.on same day I had implantation pains or what felt like that...my temp is still up. It all looked the best it could have. Really was unprepared and was trying to be positive..this dissapointment is too much. I literally have took myself to bed to sob in to my pillows. I really think this is so cruel. I couldn't bare to go through this another full year its ripping me apart. I 'm not strong enough.

I could cry for you. I do genuinely think you're having some chemicals, what you passed today, before af due sounds very much like it. Hopefully that means it's just a numbers game. I had my first mc at age 26, I turn 39 next month...I actually feel confident about this bfp. I am sure...absolutely sure your time will come.

It's so cruel Alexis our body's trick us into thinking all sorts. All I can say is believe that the heart is a powerful organ and if you want something enough you will get your rainbow just might not be in the way you originally thought. I like you always had reservations about ttc and always thought but what if I can't and that u shouldn't assume it as a given. I now know why those thoughts were there to try to protect me from the heartbreak. I just have to still believe that a BFP can and will come because we are all strong and giving up just isn't in our vocabulary. Hang in there....even if only by a gossima thread x

Hey, just to try to make you feel better, it took me 2 years to fall pregnant with my daughter who is now almost 9. I know how down it can make you feel, but it will happen! Keep at it and keep your chin up chick.

So sorry Alexis xxx
