TTC 1 year, 11 months, 25 days...but who is counting??
Hello. I am new to the Bump, so sorry I don't have any pictures up or anything. I will work on it soon.
I don't know the lingo here, so please forgive me.
My husband and I have been TTC for 2 years next month. I suffer from ammenorhea, and low hormone levels. I have just recently learned about the hormone levels, and I am really concerned about the possibility that I won't be able to carry my own baby. My husband and I are getting ready to see a RE for the very first time. I am really nervous, and my emotions are all over the place about all of this. I was a blubbering idiot on Sunday. Thankfully I have a great best friend that was willing to help me through my sadness. She is the one who told me about the bump, and how wonderful all of you are with helping other trouble ttc's, and it may help me through this trying time.
I have read some of your blogs, and it makes me sad that so many of us are suffering from this problem, and yet you all are so supportive, and loving to each other. This seems to be a great place to go for help and support. Thank you for that.

I am sorry you need to be here but I am hoping that your RE has answers for you and can help you achieve the pregnancy you have been waiting for.
This board is very supportive and you will get lots of info.
Welcome
welcome. I have some of your same issues. Birth control has suppressed my hormones so much that a drug cant even induce a period on me. Its been almost 14 months and my body is getting better. I have now ovulated twice with the help of Clomid.
I hope your stay here is short. This board is wonderful!
Are we the same person? We will also be ttc 2 years April1 and i also suffer from the top 2 problems!
Welcome to the board everyone here is great!
Thank you for such a warm welcome.
It truly is helpful to know someone knows exactly what we are going through. Sometimes I can't help but think, man, is this really happening?
Sunday of last week was the first day I signed up for the bump. It is a good thing that they make you wait 2 days to blog, because I was so involved in my pain that I was going to write a blog fueled by my anger. It was going to be called "If one more person tells me to 'Just Relax...It'll happen for you" I am going to shoot them!!!" I think I might have gotten "flared" if I had written that blog.
Before I wrote my blog last night, and I saw all of your wonderful responses, I felt like I had this huge weight on my chest hindering my breathing. Keeping me from connecting with people because they didn't and don't understand what I am going through. As I was reading your responses today, I started to feel something different. Deep breaths. Thank you.
My mom says to me..." I don't know why this is happening to you, all your dad had to do was look at me funny and I got pregnant"
I have 2 sister's who have successfully had children. 3 between the 2 of them. One does drugs, and the other one has had her child taken away from her. Why am I the one that is left with the bum ovaries? It is night and day, the difference between me and my 2 sisters. I do know one thing. When I do finally hold my baby in my arms, I know I will love him or her more than anything I have ever felt, breathed, touched, smelled, or tasted.
Why do some of us have to work so hard? I know those are questions that are pretty much impossible to answer, do you go through this thought process? I hope I am not the only sadistic one who thinks these almost selfish thoughts.
Thank you, even though we are going through the same painfull things, thank you for seeking out this site so we can all make some kind of difference for each other's struggles.
I truly appreciate you all.
