Thread: Waiting to O...........

Sorry, double post

Hi. We have been TTC for nearly 2 years now (with some months off). I did 6 months of Clomid before, took some months off, and am now on 3rd cycle of 100mg.
I had an HSG this summer--tubes are clear. My husband's SA showed everything was good there, too.
This cycle, I go in on the 20th for a post-coital test to see if my cervical mucus is hostile and for a follicle scan. I will likely do an Ovidrel shot then to trigger ovulation. Last cycle the follicle scan showed a good lining and one good sized follicle and the doc. decided to not trigger. I didn't ovulate for a few more days, so she thinks the follicles are over-maturing and triggering may help. I'm not very confident that anything will help anymore. She also discussed going to IUI this cycle or next. Again, I don't think it will make much difference unless I do have hostile CM, especially since I am not maturing enough follicles to up the odds at all.
I had a complete colectomy and several subsequent surgeries in 2009-2010 due to Crohns Disease, which has a 50% infertility rate due to scar tissue blocking the tubes. My tubes are clear but I think there is scar tissue all over that is still the cause of the problems.

Lovely, seeing as I don't get to pee alone my darling 2 year old saw me aborting out a cup so I could do an opk and insisted on sitting on the toilet to 'pee in tup'. He would not take no for an answer and got himself set up to pee in a cup, thankfully he didn't actually pee because he would have done it all over his hands

That's hilarious!! My 2 year old is always in the bathroom when I pee, he actually tries to help me wipe! About 2 weeks I did a HPT (it was negative obviously) and then threw it away well the next time I peed DS actually took it out of the garbage and stuck it between my legs while I was on the toilet...Funny kid! It's funny what they pick up!!

My DS always gets tampons out for me when I have AF. We don't have a bathtub, so we have to shower together, and then he tries to get them out, too.

Well I got bad news today as my Nanna was hospitalized and airlifted to a bigger hospital for her treatment. I also got a blazing positive opk, so thankfully I told hubby because things were so iffy because of last month we had to start dtd on Monday, otherwise I may have missed it as my opks only arrived yesterday

So sorry about your Nanna hun. I hope she gets bettter very quickly.

Hope you caught your eggie

Sorry to hear about your Nanna. Fingers crossed you caught your eggie.

I just got an almost positive OPK, which is way early. Of course the kids are home sick from school, but maybe I can stick a movie in for them and slip off for a bit with DH....
