doctor visit

[princessjaffa]

Hi all,
I'm a newbie! Been off the pill for 10mths now and no baby yet. Any helpful hints for when in the cycle to go visit the doc for a check up to see if there are any issues for not falling pg yet? What sort of things should I ask for to be checked? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Chances are they won't help you until after 12 months of being unsuccessful. But it shouldn't matter what time of the cycle you go to your GP, they will run you through a whole heap of tests and most probably send you for an ultrasound also just to make sure everything is Ok in there... all the tests took us about a month, after being tested, waiting for results and having further tests done. Daniel and I went together, Daniel had to wait 4 days to do a semen analyses and abstain from sex, so maybe if DH abstains from ejaculation 4 days before going when you go he can be tested straight away.
