Topic: Girls TTC - Whos out there? Posted: 01 November 2006 at 9:59am |
I realised this morning that I don't know anyone TTC at the moment (Lulu - you don't count as you'll be up the duff by the end of the month! ![](smileys/smiley10.gif) ).
So ...who am I hanging out with these days?

I am!
Coming up to the 5 cycle....I think. My periods have been quite irregular since coming off the pill. Ive had a couple of really short cycles (the last one being 16 days..go figure) so I'm not really sure what is going on there.
Just enjoying trying at the moment.

I am aswell, been trying for 9 months. I have got PCOS and we have also got a sperm factor to contend with so we could be on the TTC board for a wee while yet!

HI
We were all ready to go this month, taking my folic tablets and multi vitamins etc. But now hubby has a job offer overseas which we are mulling over, so baby plans have been put on hold.
We did do some BDing before the job offer came thru though, but the sensible side of me knows that falling preggers from that would be highly unlikely!!

I still count Ginger, he, he! I hope you are right and that the IVF is successful, but unfortunately there are no guarantees
I started my buserilin injections today, I have to inject myself in the stomach everyday which is a bit of a treat ![](smileys/smiley5.gif) Still, it's not that bad, not painful or anything, just a little strange. It will all be worth it if it is successful !
Before when we were TTC I thought about it quite a bit, but not all the time. Now I obsess about it night and day! I may be insane by the end of this month!

Isn't it funny - you get to the point where whatever it takes, you'll do!
I have a really, really good feeling about this IVF cycle for you - I'm thinking of you, and watching the calendar, waiting for good news

Oh yeah definately Ginger, I would climb Mt Everest at the moment if I was guaranteed to find my baby at the top!
I am so hopeful of success but also really frightened to be too hopeful... ahhhh!
My fingers are crossed for you for this cycle Ginger, it's definately your turn, I hope that we can be Mums-2-be together!

Here's hoping Lou!
I know what you mean about the hope/fear thing - especially when we've been around as long as we have. Plus, the husband has told me that he doesn't want to do IVF, so I know my options and time (with endo) are limited. I can feel the clock ticking!
Still - with the due in June thread chocka, there's be plenty of room for us in July
In the meantime I just have to get through this AF ... ![](smileys/smiley11.gif) If it wasn't for the infertility I'd be wishing I'd never had the surgery. It's awfull!!

Would your DH not even do a publicly funded IVF? My DH was fine with doing a publicly funded IVF but I didn't think he'd be keen to pay for private. However he surprised me and didn't put up any resistance at all.
If this IVF cycle works I think I would be due in August '07. August is my birthday and I will be 34 in '07. It's funny, I went to a psychic about 2 years ago and as soon as I walked in she said 'you will have your longed for baby before you turn 34'!!
So this would be the last chance for me to fulfill her 'vision'!! Here's hoping...
I'm sure you will be successful this cycle Ginger, I have all my fingers and toes crossed for you.

I guess when it comes to the crunch, he may change his mind, or his feelings may be a little different ....here's hoping anyway! I was surprised when we talked about it a few days ago, as IVF has come up a few times. But, the boy is one who thinks and thinks and thinks, and *then* says his piece. He'd not have mentioned a thing until he felt he could express his thoughts in a way that I could see his point of view.
His reasoning - there is somthing wrong with me, in that I have endo, and there is something wrong with him in that aspects of his fertility are doubtful. As much as he wants children, he said that he feels that it's a situation where bad genetics are being carried forward.
He has a point ...I just don't like it! ![](smileys/smiley17.gif) I think we'd give it more thought if the reality was right in front of us ...I told him that my endo wouldn't necessarily be carried onto my children, and if we conceived, the swimmer would've been a goodie, so wouldn't necessarily carry his doubtful fertility with it. And, it's not like it's that doubtful - the specialist didn't think it was worth the bother to re-test and she was confident that we'd fall pregnant.
Hopefully you'll have your August baby! And fingers crossed we'll be able to hang out together in the pg thread

Well it sounds like your DH has put a lot of thought into it. I can understand his point of view. However, I have a new view on life and that is not to overthink anything, as I used to have all these theories that have now been thrown out the window. As you say, he may change his mind depending on how your situation progresses. Anyway, lets hope he doesn't have to think about it again as I'm sure you will conceive naturally this cycle and that will be that!
