Hi everyone...Mel, did you get your test results back yet? I am on CD23, 8dpo and waiting....still. Not much to report here other than that I suppose. AF should arrive this weekend so we will see..... Well, talk to you all later!!

No results yet. I think I'll call after work (or at lunch) today and get them. I also wanna talk to the doc about my spotting. It's been pretty consistant for about 8 days now. Starting to worry me. I'm still at 9dpo with temps above coverline, but still.... So, how are you ladies this morning?

So the deed is done. Talk about discomfort! I had a small blockage on my right side, but they were able to flush it out with the dye. Everything else looks good. So that's it for me. Mel, I would definitely get things checked out. I don't think spotting for that long is normal. Well, I have to go pick up Alexander from my parents' place. Have a great day!

Thats exciting Shawna! WOO HOO!! maybe now this month will work better! Babydust!!

 

Kristi1 - August 8

Great news Shawna!! better get on that bding, they say the first 3 months after HSG are the best if everything is clear, and now that you are clear....look out, this could be it!!!

Hi Girls, thanks for all your kind and encouraging words. I've decided to just take things one day at a time. I'm not going to count ahead or try to plan anything out. But I also can't help but hope that this hsg fixed everything. I guess I'll just have to wait and see. How is everyone else? Mel, have you gotten things under control? Kristi, any symptoms yet? Shauna, what have you been up to? Elena, how are things going for you? Do you still have your legs crossed? How is Luke doing? Please keep us updated whenever you can! Well, I didn't have any cramping yesterday after the hsg, but I woke up this morning with horrible stomach cramps. Hopefully they will go away shortly. I can't believe it is only 8:30 and I'm already on here. You guys are addicting! Have a great day everyone!

Shawna, I have you beat... I log on usually at about 5:45 am! And then at least once mid day and again at night! :) That's okay though - it's great having so much support from people who TRULY get it! :) No, I don't have things under control... I think the spotting became AF, but I'm not real sure, and I'm confused because my temps are still high. Highest yet this morning in fact. Can't get a hold of the doc, so I'm just not getting to hopeful. How's everyone else doing? Kristi, any signs of AF yet? I CERTAINLY HOPE NOT!! Babydus to all who need it! :) Talk to you soon...

Hi ladies....sorry about the spotting thing Mel...seems very weird, especially if your temps are still high. I hope you can talk to your Dr soon, that is so frustrating when you try to talk to them and it takes forever for them to call back! No AF for me yet, but it should arrive for a few more days...anytime between Sat and Mon it should be here. PG symptoms and AF symptoms are so similar that I try to not look for them or try not to make anything out of them, like right now I have been a little bloated the last couple days, boobs slightly tender on and off, a little bit of a breakout on the face/neck and a little constipated, which is all stuff I get before AF, sooooo who knows. I am not hopeful, but we will see in a few days. Shawna, hope your cramping is gone!! Elena, hope your doing ok!! Talk to you all later!!

Hi all, hows it going? Nothing going on here, just waiting, but wanted to bump us up!!

 

Shawna1 - August 10

Mel, what day are you on? Have you done any testing? Just curious! Kristi, thanks for bumping us up! Hey, have any of you heard anything about soy and fertility? I was reading another post from this girl who was having ovulation issues and starting taking soy the same days as she had taken clomid and got pg that cycle. The clomid never worked for her to achieve pregnancy. However, I did some research about this and every article I found stated that soy decreased your fertility. If you google it, type in soy and fertility and you will find the articles there. What do o pains feel like? Today is cd12 and I felt this little pain on my right side today, but I was wondering if it could still be some after effects of the hsg. I only had some cramping yesterday am and then they were gone, so now I am curious. Well, I am just digging for things to write about, but I am interested in reading your thoughts on the things I brought up. I wonder where Shauna is? Maybe all those kids in her house finally drove her batty?! Just Kidding! Have a great day!!!

Shawna, the websites I saw about Soy said the more recent studies show that soy does not affect fertility...one said it could actually help, one said there was no affect, one said it could help male fertility, and one said that it is harmful to fertility, but then another one said it is only harmful if you were comsume alot of soy as in 3 12oz glasses of soy milk every day, which they said is more than most people would drink. So I dont know what to tell you about it.... I read on another thread about some women taking some kind of Yam supplement.....I dont know....havent gotten to the point of testing out any of those things yet.... I only sometimes feel it when I O, and it is usually a pain in the area of your ovaries, sometimes just an achey pain, somtimes a few sharp pains....

I tested this morning (11dpo) just to see but it was BFN. My temps were really high still this morning and the spotting has lessened though it's still there. Still triphasic, so I'm still totally confused. Talked to the doc's assistant. Bloodwork confirmed O, but she didn't know anything about spotting so Doc should call me today to discuss. ... I have heard the same thing about soy being a PROBLEM for fertility, not a benefit. She must've just got lucky! Sorry I can't help much with the O pain other than to say that it's a sharp pain. My book says if you put your hands ON your hips with your fingers resting in front, right about where your fingertips lie is where your ovaries would be. So... somewhere in that vacinity you should feel something! You're right Shaunas has been gone a while... Hope you're well Shauna... and you to Kristi!

morning!!
Just bumping us up.
have a great day!

 

Kristi1 - August 11

Hi ladies, sorry about the BFN Mel and hope you hear from Dr soon about your spotting. Well, I am spotting now, mainly brown, but enough that there is some on my panyliner, so AF should arrive withing the next couple days. I am really down today, I think it is mostly my hormones, this seems to be when they hit me the hardest is when AF comes..... I am at work and really just want to go home. I might take the afternoon off, I cant decide if I want to burn 1/2 day vacation for nothing..... I am going out to dinner with some friends this evening so that will help.... Well, I hope everyone else is having a better day than me!!

Hello Friends! So everyone around us are having babies! Two couples we know were sent to the hospital yesterday to get induced because of health issues and my neighbour just told me that he and his girlfriend are expecting again. My neighbour has to be the most fertile man I know. When we bought our house 4 years ago, Dan and his then grilfriend, had just had their second daughter, shortly afterward (about 5 months), she leaves him for another man and within a year of that, she is pregnant again. In the meantime, Dan hooks up with this woman who already has 5 kids (they all have the same dad!). Last year she gave birth to Dan's son and now she is pregnant again. I think I need to go drink the water in their house! It is so crazy!! Hey Kristi, after your hsg, did you have a lot of extra cm? I'm really sorry to ask you such a personal question and I know I would never ask anyone face to face, so I am so thankful for this forum, but since my hsg on Tuesday, I seem to have so much. I am on cd12, but I haven't been oing until cd18+, I don't know what to think? I'm just not going to think about it anymore, we'll just continue to have lots of s-e-x! Mel, I'm sorry to hear about your bfn, could it be too early? Do you have anything else unusual going on? When did your dr say he would get back to you? I would be very persistent if I were you. Good luck with everything!!! Anyways, I have to go wrap a birthday present, I'll try and check in on the weekend, but we are in the process of starting to renovate our bathroom. Have a great weekend!!! Take Care!

You know, I keep getting calls from the doctor's office but each time it's this nurse who knows nothing and she's just wanting to confirm that her notes are accurate in regards to what's going on with me. Then she says she'll have the doc call me that day, and she never does. I'll be persistent, but really I just think it's old blood (gross) from all those months I didn't have a regular cycle. AF is due to be here either today or by Monday. Temps are still high but still spotting (now mostly brown). I'll test again in a few if AF still hasn't come, but I'm not too hopeful. At this point I just want AF to get here so we can get to trying again. I'll keep you posted. Good luck with you Shawna, I say start BDing like crazy just in case! And have fun with your remodel! I love that stuff!
