21-1-2010 - More Decisions

My mood while writing this blog:
blahh

Hello again! just thought i'd give a quick update on savanaa and my docs appt....so aparently everything 'looks good' for me, she said that with the meds that i am on and everything else there is no reason i shouldn't be getting pregnant and i should just wait it out but now i have a decision to make. Since i have been TTC for a year (in february) that i will be considered infertile (hate that word) if i do not get pregnant soon with no intervention then its on to the hard stuff (new drugs, HSG, IUI?) but i dont want to have to do any of this, getting pregnant shouldnt be this hard, it wasnt the first time!! Sav was a total miracle and i am sooo lucky to have her, i realize that more now then anything. Okay, sorry lol getting distracted....decisions....i dont want to TTC anymore i really dont, its taking alot out of me and i can not be happy so i talked to my doc about possibly going back on BC for a little bit (the pill i concieved sav on- haha its worth a try) and also depression meds to see if it changes my moods (she thinks im depressed and i dont disagree) so i can do that OR i can schedule an HSG after my appointment with the RE on February 3rd....i dont know what to do, im doing my best to avoid TTC and i think i am doing a great job at it, ive gotten 3 tattoos in the past 3 weeks lol like i said, greatest distraction ever!! so thats where i need u, i need opinions, on what u all think i should do?? i really dont want to do the HSG bcuz i dont think there is anything wrong with my tubes, so why cause myself pain for no reason rite? ugh i hate this!!!

As for sav, she is doing really well, the doc was worried at her 15 mo appt bcuz she hadnt gained an ounce since she turned a year but at her 18 mo appt she has gone up to 26lbs from 24 (PHEW!) i was getting worried for a bit there!! Also she hasnt been feeling the greatest and i think she had a lingereing tummy bug so they had us do a stool sample and get it sent in to make sure everything is okay. She is more cranky nowadays then anything but omg she is a chatterbox!!

Here is a couple recent pictures of my girl....

and here is my newest tattoo :) now i match lol

the one on the left of the pic is the new one lol going back in about a week for #4!

much love ladies!!

I would advise to get the HSG (no regrets) and you are always more fertile after a HSG because it doe sclean it out even if there are no major blockages. I got pg on the cycle after my hsg even though it wasn't blocked! Then ttc for a couple more months. If no luck I would agree with you and go on the bc pill and the anti-dep for 6-12 months just to give your body and mind a real break. Whatever you decide will be the right thing for you though. Huhs ***

I am not able to give advise on the issue - I had a lap done due to test for Endo -- my tubes are fine it was my left ovary that had problems.

I think if you are really concerned that there is an issue then get the HSG done but if you don't really believe that will help then I say why put yourself through it? I also agree that taking a break from TTC is a good thing but I would not go back on BC just in case it messes your cycles up once you decide to stop taking it. wow girl you have a lot to think about! good luck and keep us posted. Sav is adorable as always :) glad to hear her appointment went well!!!

I agree with the other ladies...get the test done, although, its no picnic, I admit. Don't go back on the pill though. Just enjoy your time with Sav, get on some anti D's if they don't affect fertility and ride it out Mama. I'm right here with you. :D

Like a lot of the other ladies I think you should go forward a little more and possibly get some answers. Even if you don't act on them right away at least you will know and will be better prepared for the future. I do think you should give serious consideration to anti-depression treatment if you know you are depressed. This in itself can cause fertility issues.

Aww Sav is getting so big- she is absolutely adorable & I love the tats! On TTC I think If I were in your place I would have the HSG done. Mostly because I know as much as I tried to not think about it I would end up wondering if maybe there was something wrong that would have shown up on the test and I would end up making myself a little crazy lol Good luck no matter what decision yo make!!

Well hun i think i have to say if you really need a break and think going back on bc for a short while then do it but i really don't think bc is the answer at all. I think you should let science help you like another porter said and perhap that will help i think its worth a try.

I think that if you try to take a break, you won't really take a break...I think that what you want is a baby, and nothing will fulfill that until you get preggers. Sorry, not trying to sound rude, just realistic. At least, that is probably what would happen to me....

You know my opinion.... which is basically what Diane said. :0)

its your body hun and nobody can tell you what to do. if you feel like taking a break then that is what you should do. dont run yourself into the ground and depress yourself. heal your mind and your body will follow. take care of your baby girl and focus your time on her and yourself. in time you will have your BFP, when time is right try again.

I have to disagree, but I'm being selfish. I think you should continue and not give up..I feel like this is my battle too, and I'm not giving up on you. I think you should see the RE, et him do all he needs to check and see what the heck is going on, and go from there. My RE put me on BC durinf October, testing month, and that help;ed b/c it was a month break....I think you are just discouraged right now...but I know how bad you want this, and I don't want you to give up...get the answers you are looking for, and just let science help your body a little bit. I want you to be happy, which you deserve b/c you are an awesome person, with an awesome kid, with an awesome husband, with an awesome relationship that has lots of sex...urgh...i'm sooo jealous!!! LOL...:::big hug::::

Well hun, I think if you are really wanting to take a break and not TTC then why do the HSG? Maybe take a break for a bit and relax and then come back to it when you are feeling better about it. Maybe then it will just happen for you. I know how much pain this has caused you and maybe you need to get over that pain before you ttc again. Maybe the stress of it isnt helping you know. PLUS.... Maybe the birth control will do wonders and you will end up pg just like with Sav! :) She is absolutely adorable hun and I am glad she is doing so good!!! Good luck with everything hun!!! :) *HUGS*

Hon, dont do it and just relax!! The drugs are NOT the way to go! This was my 13th cycle and i got that BFP...i just hope it sticks but just relax

Cherryb0m - Thursday, 21 Jan
i think a break is a great idea, but i also think you should go ahead with the HSG. maybe that's whats keeping you from getting pregnant??? your tubes might be a little blocked up. Maybe not... but atleast you will know that they are wide open and clear :-)

DiandClover - Thursday, 21 Jan
The break will do you good I think, but I would go ahead and schedule the HSG just so that when you get back to TTC, you can go back in with a 'clean slate' knowing it's just the luck of the draw that is keeping you from being pregnant. Love the tats! I am looking into getting my 'Robin' done soon too :)

hun I think it sounds like you know what you want to do...and maybe a break may not be to bad to get yourself right mentally and physically
