18-11-2009 - The plot thickens! okMy mood while writing this blog:
ok



Hello lovely ladies,

Thank you so much for the many encouraging messages in response to my mail. I have had so many kind messages and I appreciate all the love and support from you I-A-P ladies!

So yesterday I obviously found out from my blood test that I did not ovulate. I left my contact number with the staff and they said they would call me with the result of Mondays blood test to confirm I wasn't pregnant and then I could start my pills to induce my AF.

I had a call from the sister (nurse) called me this morning from the fertility clinic, before I went to work and I had a really long chat with her on the phone. She informed me that I wasn't pregnant (which I already knew! My HCG level was 2!)

Anyway she was asking why I was having this done and I explained about the x-ray I was waiting on, the HSG scan as it's know. (where I'm having the dye inserted into my cervix and then an x-ray to check my tubes etc) and she was like 'Oh right I see, well I'll book you in and then we can sort out you taking the pills to make AF come'

She then looked through all my previous blood results because I started asking her about the fact I didn't ovulate even after the clomid. She then said that looking at my blood result from September she would say that I have polycystic ovaries.

Apparently my FSH was 5.3 which is normal for my age as it needs to be under 8 and my LH is suppose to be less then the FSH number but it was 22.2. So a lot higher. She said obviously my doctor doesn't know what she was talking about when she told me that 22.2 was low before!!! No kidding! She did give me the clomid without any follow up!!

So now I have been hit with another obstacle! I am going to supply the hospital with my DBF sperm sample next week when I have a scan booked for 26th.

Then I will have to wait and see what they say about everything when I go back to the consultant on the 14th December.

I am going to have a long talk with my DBF as well about what we want to do, if we want to go through the stress next year or if we want to move and then sort out things like that and then go back to TTC, unless of course we need IVF and then we can just be put on the list and wait! I really do not know what to do now, now that everything is going to be so much harder then expected. I am so done with stressing about everything and worrying about Oing and AF and CP and CM etc etc and I haven't been enjoying myself, everything has become so serious and I have noticed that DBF and I are arguing more I am not happy about that either!

A friend of mine is 10 weeks pregnant and she has PCOS and her DF has low sperm count so I know it does happen naturally so I am just trying to work out what is the best thing to do.

Sorry to hear that hun. My advice would be to have a break from the whole TTC thing. DH and I aren't on contraception but we're not 'trying' either. I'm so over OPKs, checking the calendar, checking CM etc. Now I feel relaxed and happy cos it's easy to get obsessed about TTC which isn't healthy. Let me know what you decide. xx

you will be fine, I know you'll get that bfp. Your friend is 10 weeks preggo now. That nurse seemed to help you out alot. Follow her advice and I just know you will be fine. Baby dust for a happy healthy 2010 baby : ) XOXO

You're right you know,you probably need to just chill out from all the TTc'ing business and just enjoy your DBF for a while i think - your going to be waiting for Dr's tests and results anyway so why you are you should just relax and have fun - maybe even sex instead of BD'ing - yes the same thing i knowbut i hope you understand what im trying to say. Dtress for either of you wont help anything chick x

Aww hunnie that's not good to hear but there is hope out there, little miracles do happen and it will happen to you :) You just need to find what is right for you and go from there, hope your dbf sperm is all great and there is no problems there :)

Hey i had what was diagnosed as polycystic ovary syndrome. From around 17/18 til about 21/22. I fell pregnant at Jan (22yrs) Miscarried 6 weeks into pregnancy. Then August/September (22yrs) I fell pregnant again and this was a successful one I gave birth to my son in June this year!I told you this cause its not the end there is a happy ending with POS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) We were not trying the second time as of the shock of January. And 8/9 months later it was bad timing with me halfway through a course. But i wouldnt change it for the world....

Yuck that your TTC road is so bumpy, but you have a great medical team helping you and us here on IAP to cheer you on! The road will smooth out, and you will get your BFP - I know you will!! The combo coctail of metformin and clomid has gotten lots of PCOS gals pregnant! If IVF is the ultimate answer, I have three friends with beautiful IVF babies on their first try (two sets of twins and one singleton ;) ((HUG))

I am so sorry hun :-(.

Omg, Amy. I'm so so sorry. I know exactly what you mean, how TTC isn't even fun anymore. Nothing seems to be going the way you want it to. I'm glad that SOMEONE finally figured out what was going on!! Geez..you poor thing. I could sit and tell you not to stress so much over it, etc. but I'm in the same i-want-a-baby boat, and know it's a lot easier said than done. You are a strong lady though, and I know you can make it through this.

I'm so sorry to hear of all your troubles. I know you must be frustrated. Hopefully you'll get some more direct/helpful answers on the 14th and be able to come up with a plan the you feel good about. I wish you the best of luck!
