Ok everyone I need some good solid advice here. I am on CD 24 cd 25 or 26. tested yesterday on FRER BFN and didnt today, expectin AF this weekend and feel like she is coming.
Here is the question.....some of the other nurses I work with told me about an OBGYN. SO I CALLED and told them i have been trying and how much would a consult be? 200 ( including pap) and if the doc prescribes fertility charting? then it would be 45 every month and I would have to come every month. This is month 5 of TTC next cycle will be six. So I made the appt for the 11th, ( I also have free pap at health dept scheduled that day) My fiance says that I should not go the the doc this month, he swears the problem is him ( he smokes pot) he says he will stop the week of O, and I also bought him some male fertility supplement that got awesome reviews ( avalible at GNC got off amazon for 20 bucks cheaper) . He says dont go and let him try to the supplements and stop the other thing and If i still don't get preg then go to doc. I am just so tired of waiting and want to make sure I am not the problem. So my question is should I just go to health dept for pap t on the 11th as planned? ( waitied 2 months for health dept appt) or should I go pay 200 for a pap and I dont know what else? I dont know what the doc will be doing other than the pap, I want to know if its me, and what is fertility charting, I feel like I have already been doing that? Please help!!! Is it worth 200 for this 1st appt or am I going to get same thing at health dept?!?!?!?!?

Umm...I didn't read for a few days & it took me 2 to get caught up. Well, as usual I thought I was going to get a BFP but didn't. AF showed a week ago. Bled for 3 days, stopped for 3 days, bled today. I hate my uterus. Back on my high protein diet, so I hate everything right now. 2 of my kids are really sick, and I'm sick, too, and working full time. Been going to bed before 10 most nights & I'm usually a night owl. Doc's office sent a postcard that my blood work was all normal, but I left that bitch nurse a message 2 times to get a copy of my lab work because that same office told me I had an increased risk of chromosomal abnormalities with my littlest one because they transposed some numbers on a report. I found the error on my own after I worried myself sick for 2 months.

Any who, more power to the swimmers, Tara!!!! Come on, twins!

Hkellerman - the pap will be the same at either office. How old are you?

Everybody waiting on a BFP - best of luck!

1 DPO
What is it about being 1dpo makes you suddenly extremely well aware of your uterus . Wasnt really thinking about babies today until I got home. Dh has been so cute. He took my hands and started jumping up and down in the kitchen. Then after dinner, he blurted out "Is it bad I want you to take a pregnancy test?! ". I then caught him staring at boobs a few moments ago. He smiled and announced that he's very excited about bigger boobs....not his, mine!!! I'm already a 38C! Got my temp spike this morning and my cm is very dry...almost chunky. I know TMI but I've talked about explosive diarrhea on here in the past so I'm not ashamed .

@soarys- oooo...now I'm hungry for eggrolls and lobster! Dh's cousin's husband is Vietnamese and makes homemade eggrolls for family reunions. Dh and I always stalk them so we can get fresh ones straight from the fryer. Anyways, off the subject of food ..you are like a walking list of pregnancy symptoms! Praying you get your .

@pisces- I'm so sorry honey! Lost both my grandparents this time last year. Everyday will get easier I promise. Happy Birthday though! Kind of a sucky birthday but I'm very glad you were born otherwise I wouldnt have a new TTC Buddy!

@memphrika- I'm sorry about the bfn. It's one thing to get a bfn on a stick but something about the dr saying the bloodtest was negative is an even bigger slap in the face. Did they find out if you Ov'd?

@athena- I know you dont like to get stuck on symptoms but I cant help it...I'm so nervous/excited for you! Yea nausea!!

@lammy- glad your dh's work got their butt in gear so you guys can move on .

@hkellerman- BINGO!!! There's your problem!!! Unfortunately your fiance is right...it's more than likely him causing the infertility. Marijuana damages sperm and causes great damage to the fertility system. Even if he stops smoking it week of O...the sperm still wont be able to do their job. If he needs it for medical purposes, I understand, but if it's recreational...he needs to stop. It can take 3 months to replenish and mature sperm. So he's need to stop smoking it and in 3 months he should have much healthier sperm! You can try the new obgyn but all the things in the world he could offer wont matter if dh's sperm are high.

Hey phat!!! I was getting ready to message you to update you! :) Sorry came . I hate your uterus too!

Tara. I'm trying not to get excited, but it is hard lol. I just can't wait to test.

aww sorry Phat on your Next month :(

I have a new symptom... it's driving me bonkers... a cramp... Not in my uterus... but on the side of my abdomen,
LOL
I'm so hopeing that it's a good sign :)

athena when is due ?

ive got shooting pain in right bb i dont wanna get my hopes up but i really want to pee on a stick going to try hold a few days

praying we all get our this month

Lammy not until the 9th but I will test before then I'm sure

UNSURE... but I'm thinking just reared her ugly head

it's dark brown and pink... not RED... so i don't know if i'm starting AF... or what...

I'm not super cramping though... which i usually do first day...
I can't even move normally... so IDK..
