Re: The Official TTC Thread!
Ally - Yes, I already had an ultrasound booked for July 2, that was to look at whether I had polycystic ovaries. So I just need to change the indication for the scan on the form (!) and we are all set. I asked my reprod gynae if I needed to move it earlier and he thought it was fine to leave it as it is, because if I'm only around the 5-6 week mark when I'm scanned they might not see a heartbeat and it would stress everyone out - so he thought best to wait for ~7 weeks. That said, we have no idea of my dates so I may be past that.
Missy - welcome! Beware of that first post-pill cycle... I was on the pill for 12 years, had long and irregular cycles for years before that, and then despite all indications that we would have trouble getting pregnant, here I am.
MP - thank you again. I know you've had a tough time with things recently and I hope I'm not making you feel worse. The timing of that appointment sounds pretty appropriate.
Megumi - thank you! How exciting that you will be TTC soon...
Fabcrab - thanks! I am hoping this sticks too.
LC - haha, we can abstain from drinking together... and try and hide it together, lol! I figure I will just tell my girlfriends that we are trying and that's why I'm not drinking.
NEL - ignore me with my medical words. I try to keep my work and my life separate but sometimes the vocabularies collide
Lizzy - no, no Clomid at all! I only got advice a week ago. I am such an idiot, in my enthusiasm to "get on top of things", I went out and bought $60 of Primolut and Clomid the day after we talked to our gynae friend, bought a thermometer too. So stupid that I was pregnant all that time
