This thread has gotten me through some of my most difficult days throughout TTC. I have learned so much from the amazing friends that I have met here, not only about TTC but about life itself. I hope that our sisterhood only expands and that we can continue to learn from one another and help each other. You ladies are wonderful. A big welcome to all the new amazing ladies that have joined. I am so glad to have found this thread. Our journey continues. Looking forward to getting some good news :) Love you all.

Oh! I missed some of you!

Shea - I am glad you are feeling better. I took a break from the thread too to try to get my sanity back. It did help.

Nat - I hope you and your hubby get to feeling better soon!

Hi ladies,

It is so good to know a lot of you have plans ahead of you and great doctors. I wish I had a plan and a great doctor!

Aloha- So sorry about the bfn. I am glad that you have a plan. What is the difference between doing IUIs with clomid vs. injectables...more eggs I guess right? I really hope that you do not even have to go that route.

Rachel- I am glad your doc visit went well. Wishing you with all upcoming plans.

little- I am testing tomorrow 10dpo. 99percent sure it ll be negative. Intuition! Good luck to you. Let us know when you test.

Hope eveyone is doing well.

AFM: Have been thinking today that the next step for us should be the dye test. Would not want to spend money on (IUI) which would probably be if we have no choices left, without knowing if tubes are clear. Well I hope the doc will order me the test when we wanna do it. I have also been thinking about whether I should change my doctor. It seems like all of you guys have amazing doctors who really care. I like mine too but she is insensitive and I always feel rushed on my appointments in the scan room. She is not bad but I am sure there are better doctors out there. And of course it is not her fault that I am not pregnant. Had an emotional breakdown today and good thing dh wasn't home because he has had the talk with me over and over again (not that he wouldn't this time) about how he is very happy with me and that whenever it happens, it will be amazing and if it doesn't happen now we will just keep trying and trying. Cried a lot today, eyes are so puffed out. I am glad I have you guys to write to. I have to be strong though, there is no other way to beat this. Testing tomorrow morning.

Nat: BIG . I think that we all know how you feel as we've all been there. It's so nice that you have such a supportive husband. Mine said the same thing too but for me, it stings to hear the "it'll be OK if we don't have a baby". It is the right attitude but I don't want to consider it as an option, even if it's just how life can be. Eek, I was hoping to cheer you and not start a pity party for me. So, Nat, I really hope that you get a nice big surprise when you test tomorrow. You just never know!

BTW, I also don't have a good doctor. The only fertility specialist I can find in Thailand is all about making the money. They just want me to sign up for IVF and I haven't even gotten tested yet!

Nancy- you always manage to put a smile on my face. I think you re super sweet. I didn't mean to be such a downer. Oh btw, I don't know if you remember, last cycle I totally thought I had a uti. I had all the symptoms of a uti when really I am now assuming that it was because of my positive. So it can/ may be a good sign. I am so glad you received some things in the mail. Yaaay! Praying you get a bfp this cycle!

Aw, Nat, you're going to make me cry... wait, could this be a symptom that I'm preggers?! He, he, just kidding. And right back at you, you're a sweetie too! OK, group hug again!

To everyone else: All of my symptoms that I've bored you with could all easily be attributed to something else other than pregnancy. I read this on another site but it falls under the same category as "I can lose weight if I just eat less & exercise more" BUT who can really do that?! Have a glance at it if you haven't come across it:

BTW, just this afternoon, I got a gigantic zit on my chin and I usually only get that when AF is here... BUT I did tried a new facial scrub & I'm sure that I'm not reacting well to it. Sorry, girls. I've really lost it now. So sorry about numerous & lengthy posts! to all!

So sorry I havent been around lately. Its been a very rough emotional ride the past week and I'm not sure where to go with the next step.

I feel like my dr isnt doing enough; idk what else he could do but I just feel like its not enough. He was on vaca for the last 2 weeks and so I called yesterday to find out when I could come in for my internal u/s (which is normal around CD17) -- He wanted to see me friday which would have been fine IF they didnt only see patients in the AM. I am a home daycare provider and I cant keep taking days off just to drive an hour to see him and sit in the office for 15-20 mins just for him to say "I think you O'd" or "I think you already O'd". I asked if I came in on thursday (CD 15) and the nurse said I'll talk to him and call you back. Well she called this morning and said "dr said he might not be able to see anything if you come in a day earlier so its up to you if you want to still come in." i said wouldnt he be able to see a follicle or egg at all and she said he said maybe or maybe not. so needless to say this is getting really frusterating. I might be looking at getting a new dr (that is closer, too) but a part of me feels bad for finding a new doctor but there has to be something else a dr could be doing...wouldnt you think?

so I guess I just use OPKs this month and see where it ends up. I feel like I need to take a step back from TTC but I know that time is of the essence and I dont want to waste anymore time. ::sigh::
