Yeah im still feeling fairly positive even though i think im out this cycle im pretty excited to get started with the fertility treatments, i know i wont probably do anything this next cycle because DH still needs to get the SA done and we have to wait for work to slow down and i dont think they will start anything until they have tested both of us but im still excited for progress every cycle is one cycle closer to my bfp that is the way im looking at it :) I def wont be buying that brand of test again but!!!

Testing day today.......
I get my digi in the mail in another 4 hrs i will let you guys know the results asap

Sillfuntryin: still no AF?! yeah! That is great! Have you taken more of the cheaper tests? If s are they darker? I really hope this is it for you!

Afm: the boys leave for their fishing trip Wednesday. I'm excited for their return s that we can figure out the game plan. I go back to work around the 17 of August so I'd like to have it all planned out before I go back. Fingers crossed!

well Mel i went POAS crazy and ran out at 11 dpo, no AF and my cervix is sorta soft (not O soft but not AF hard if you know) it's usually hard by now but cause this cycle has been all weird u never know it could be my body playing tricks! we all know what that feels like...
No CM which is a bit of a downer and my temp dropped a little this mornso im no too excited yet! I so hope i see PREGNANT but so know i will see NOT PREGNANT.....
Im also wanting it to hurry up and show cause i have that HSG in 7 days and i dont really want to be bleeding while im doing that YUK...
anyway lookout for my post in the next 3hrs

NOT PREGNANT................. =(

Stillfuntryin: I'm so sorry. Make sure you give yourself some me time tonight. After a bfn I like to get me a big girl drink and take a nice hot bath. (since I don't take them during the cycles we try) it doesn't take away the pain completely but it does help me relax and focus on moving forward. I know when you go see the specialist he's going to be able to help you figure out what's going on and get you on the right track. Please keep us posted and if you need someone to talk t we are all here for you.

Thanks Mel
Im actually ok with it, a little dissapointed but weirdly ok with it, must be cause we are still moving forward and not still sitting here spinning our wheels, i knew i could count on you for support, now we just need af to hurry up so im not bleeding when i get the HSG eeewwwww..... Its funny that my cervix is still softish i dont really understand... But its all good i will have that big girls drink but no bath we dont have one and i have to cook for everyone each night its part of my job and i dont usually finish till about 8pm so by then its TV time, anyways i will let you know how this horrid HSG goes, I cant wait to hear how you go with the new plan of attack, hope it works quickly for you FX it does....

Stillfuntryin, darn, sorry you got the BFN. At least you have the HSG to look forward to (haha) and hopefully will get some explanations. I'm glad you're not feeling too down.

Mel, I hope you are able to get the plan sorted out before you go back to work. It's great that you have such a wonderful supportive family.

AFM, I'm ovulating this week but DH is away on work. Blah. We'll try to BD Friday pm, but I think I'm probably going to ovulate tomorrow or Thursday. Anyhow, I'm taking this cycle off and focusing more on work and getting in shape. I always worry about working out hard during the tww.

Well, I'm so sorry to hear about yur BFN, we were all hoping for a BFP for you before you even had to go see the fertility docs.

We have gone to see a urologost and did a SA that showed no sperm. We have since then followed up with a fertility urologist now and have had bloodwork done on DH in hopes of getting some answers and will have to either do hormone therapy or a testicular biopsy with a very small chance of recovering any sperm. We have also found out that our insurance will cover absolutly nothing, not even the bloodwork or the initial urology appt. It makes us wonder why we even pay for insurance! $300 for the SA, $280 for the first urologist, $200 for bloodwork and no clue how much it's going to be for the fertility specialist we just went to see. I'm still upset that we have spent so much before now in fertility stuff and DHs mom knew all along that we were going to have these problems and kept it from us. BLAH...I wish the doctor's office would just call me to give me the results of his bloodwork so we know our next move. I don't like sitting around and waiting, it drives me crazy.

I dont even have insurance! In AUS you need to have it for at least 1yr before getting any help with fertility and then they only help with some things and it will cost for the cheapest one about $2000 for both of us so the way i see it i can save myself $4000 and know that every thing i take on i wont be wondering if insurance will pay... Temp below the coverline i was kinda hoping it would drop today so AF will start tommorow and then i should be finished bleeding by HSG time, I can see you have alot of resentment towards you mother inlaw sugarbear! I dont blame you for a second maybe you wouldnt be were you are right now if you would have known about it but i can understand from her side aswell she didnt want to alarm you if there was nothing wrong, still sucks but at least she could have givin a heads up to him, could have gone along way, i think that poeple who have no trouble conceiving will never understand the pain that happens every month when the witch comes to town and not knowing why it is taking so long to get pregnant! I want to start invasive procedures asap, im sick of waiting, im sick of forcing my self to have sex every time i O because i dont want to miss the oppourtunity to be a mummy, im sure DH is sick of it too, its not only me that gets let down every time AF comes its him too! eerrgghhh AF pain has started just another slap in the face isnt it, just a quick reminder every 20 min that you arnt preg LOL.
