Trouble TTC

Time to stop lurking and Intro

Hello all! I have decided that since I lurk here often and want to start participating in the threads, I should introduce myself! I have been a regular and frequent poster on TTGP for the last year and so I am familiar with the boards, just not a poster here, yet! 

OUr TTC journey: My husband and I have been TTC for just over a year now and have yet to have any success, at all. He had an SA done a few months ago and it came back with low morph (2%) but fine in all other numbers. He saw an urologist and everything physically looked good. From the urologist’s perspective his SA was fine. He had him do a repeat SA and it came back at 1% morph, so that sucked. We scheduled an appt with a RE last month and had our initial consult. He too was not worried about the low morph since the rest of my H’s numbers were good. So we made a plan that we would wait until my next cycle and start all my testing (CD 3 labs, HSG) and go from there.

Well up until this point my cycles had been pretty regular with predictable O patterns and decent charts, so this seemed like a fine plan. Well cycles are regular until they aren’t and of course this one has been never ending. I am on CD 62, now taking a round of Provera to force CD 1, and then maybe we can move ahead!

That’s our history but here is who we are! I am 28 almost 29 and H just turned 29. We have 2 fur babies (pics in siggy) and we are for sure dog people! We have been married just over 4 years and now live in the wonderful and cold Midwest! We love to travel and just started working out a few months ago! We are trying to get healthier for having kids and now that we have hit 1 year of TTC we know we may need to look at options like IVF and so I need to get my BMI down for that, plus I just need to get to a normal BMI to be healthy.  No time to start like the present to get fit!  

 

Thanks for reading my long intro and I am looking forward to getting to know all of you!

    How annoying that AF won't come the one time you want her too. :( Hope your testing cycle gets underway soon and you some clear answers. :)
