I have re-created this thread for you as due to a major database crash last night both this forum and another were lost in the process. So carry on, and apologies.
Ohh lil chookie... :hugs: take care of your heart and let big chookie take care of it too.. take as long as you need and know that we are all here for you
We finally had our appointment with the Fertility Specialist today, and guess what MORE WAITING. DH is now off to the andrologist as they think he has varicoceles. In the mean time I am starting clomid while we try sort out the swimmers so at least I am ovulating more often than I am currently, then after this we are going to look at icsi. So after working myself into a tis I have to calm down again. It isn't looking like we will get a baby this year, but if we can sort out the swimmers I am happy with that.
Hope everyone else is going well. I am a bit out of touch with what was going on having been away and then the thread crashing.
Lil Chookie, I understand your heartache and need for some time away... When our IVF failed I did the same thing, and took one giant step away from all things TTC and pregnancy.... look after your heart...
Jano ](*,) love pet sweet... stay strong and remember all things good come to those who wait... I used to think "oh for *&%@ sake what is going to happen next" Now honey, I just roll with the punches and i have also learnt we need to be in top shape to conceive and let the surgeons/specialist etc be as thorough as possible... In the last 6 months I have had 5 anaesthetics....but i know at the end of the day, I have done eveything in my power to have a child and will never have any regrets with whatever way it should chose to go.....
Hey Lil Chookie, I don't really know what to say sweetheart, except that I'm so sorry. I hope you and your DH are doing ok. Take care love :hugs: , Didge
Well my husbands going to stick it to me in the morning . I hope he remembers how to give me the jabs. He gets more noervous than I fo sometimes. I think this is the easy part, the two weeks before you atart stimming, and I haven't had a bad reaction to buserelin before so I expect it will be the same this time.
Lil Chookie, I know how you feel. You probably just want the world to swallow you up. There is light at the end of your tunnel somewhere in the distance and every day you will get closer to it.
I am having TWW delusions, I think I have the most vivid imagination You would think a relatively intelligent woman such as myself would be able to comprehend that low sperm count etc plus my problems equal very small chance of conceiving on our own, but always the optimist I will spend the next week imaging I am pg. Oh well it keeps me occupied I guess.
I hope everyone is going well and hanging in there
Haven't popped in here for several days although I have tried to read up posts.
Jane is right, is very quiet in here. guess the site "melt down" has left us all bit confused as to where everyone is at.
Jane, can fully understand your wishful thinking. I found myself wondering the same thing after I found out I had spontaneously ovulated shortly after my lap -even though DH and I hadn't DTD since before the lap!!
Lil-Chookie - I know you have left us for awhile (which I totally understand) but if you do pop in, I hope you know we are all thinking of you and hoping you are coping ok. Life is so F#@KING cruel!!! Good people don't deserve such heartbreak. I hope you get some happiness and the child you DO deserve sometime in the future.
Me - well hooray, hooray my HCG is finally down to 4!! Has taken 9 weeks since the m/c, 3 D&C's, lap, infections and a heavy AF but finally we are on a clean slate to TTC again. Started my FSH injections tonight and will have scan and BT next Friday. Glad to having something poistive to focus on for a change.
as you know my husband has the sperm problem also, and when we try to conceive naturally, i go into it whole heartedly and try to get pregnant regardless of the reduced chances. My consultant says that as long as there is some sperm there that do go forward, then you have a chance of getting pregnant naturally, it just might take a long time. so at the risk of getting your hopes up...for all you know you might be pregnant so keep at it, stress or otherwise. Imagine how wonderful it would be if you did get pregant. You read about miracles all the time on this web site so it could happen.
As for me. I'm having my jabs every morning and so far so good. I don't usually get symptoms with this drug so I'm not worried about anything right ecept the two week wait obviously.
It has been very quiet in here. Where is everybody?
I have been really sick with the flu and can't sleep because I can't stop coughing :fuming: which is why I am on here at 3 am!
Lil Chookie - I am sending lots of hugs your way :hugs: take all the time you need and take care of yourself. We are all thinking of you.
Meredith - Great news about your hcg levels, good luck with ttc this month.
Jane - Keep up that positive thinking, hopefully it will rub off on all of us!
As for me, AF showed up Wednesday, but for the first time since starting ttc I feel ok about it, I am just waiting til the 29th to see the IVF clinic and jump on the bandwagon. I am concentrating on trying to keep myself healthy physically and emotionally so we can be well prepared for the IVF.
