Trouble TTC

Labs back **possible C/P**

My nurse just called and said that my beta came back in at 9 and that my progesterone was 3.7 and that the RE feels that we may have had a chemical?  So it looks like more blood work for me.  I asked why I have AF now and had what I thought was a period 2 weeks ago and she said that my system is flushing itself out.  I am now freaking out that I had my saline on the 4th despite her reassurance that it wouldn't have made a difference anyhow.  I have to call H and let him know and he's already beating himself up over shitty SA results, does this shit ever get any easier??

****SIGGY WARNING****

  • I'm sorry honey :(
    Love 2010 | Marriage 2011 | TTC #1 since 2012
    PCOS | Anovulatory | Metformin + Letrozole
  • I'm so sorry. Perhaps hearing the reassurance from the RE about the saline instead of just the nurse could help you feel better  about that part?

    Uncertainly can be so much worse than bad news. I am so sorry and hope you feel better soon.

    Perhaps a possible CP could reassure DH that even if his counts are poor, his sperm are still nice and "manly"? IF is so hard. :(

  • I'm very very sorry :(

    Trying to have baby #1 since April 2013

    DH SA March,May 2014 - Low motility and shape issues. On vitamins per RE to help

    Me testing April 3, 2014 - FSH and LH good, HSG showed blocked right tube

    April 29, 2014 - First RE appt., right tube needs to be removed and possibly left also if

    it's bad too. RE suggests going straight to IVF

    June 4, 2014 - LAP/HSC and unexpected endo. removed but tubes got to stay!

    June 13, 2014 - Post-Op appointment. We decide where to go next since main issue

    is MFI influenced. Trying naturally until decision... Repeat SA  in September. Aiming for IUI #1 November 2014.

  • I'm sorry. A c/p is a horrible tease. I still worry that if I would have been more insistent about having progesterone during that cycle that we might still be pregnant.

    On the upside, it does mean that something worked. To me, that is reassuring that my body can at least start a pregnancy.

    Me: 30  DW (aka C): 29

    Together since 2/15/11 ~ Legally married in NY on 9/29/12

    ***CP mentioned***

    We've been working on baby #1 since July 2013 using Open ID donor sperm.  8 IUI attempts with 5 actual IUIs and one chemical pregnancy.  We have one fresh IVF cycle under our belts as well as a FET.  I have endometriosis and a uterine septum that was corrected via surgery in November 2013. 

    11/14/14 -  Second HSG shows that tubes are still clear and ute is looking good. 

    12/6/14 - Started BCPs in prep for IVF #2

    12/22/14 - Saline u/s and endometrial scratch (All was clear and OUCH!)

    1/2/15 - Began stimming for IVF #2

     ****All Welcome!****

    We are Mommas to four fur babies - 3 dogs and 1 cat.

  • Thank you ladies for the kind words and encouragement.  I'm still processing all this, I'm worried about H, he's really beating himself up about all this IF crap.  I'm going to look into setting us both up with a therapist.  Thankfully my EAP at work provides 6 sessions that are no cost to us.
