Update..my fertility!

[lorihart]

Hello ladies,

Just figured I would fill you in on my week thus far:
Well, I took a test yesterday morning.It came back negative:-( Thought it might.I still haven't started my period and lately my periods have been pretty regular.Last night and earlier today I had a little bit of a pinkish tinge when I used the bathroom,nothing major,and I thought that i was going to start.Still didn't.When I normally start my preiod, there is no need to ask what might be on the tolit paper.
I decided to take a trip to the doctor.Basically we haven't been trying THAT long but we have been doing it with out protection for 2 yrs.I have a 7 yr old so I know I can have children.I didn't know, maybe I have a blocked tube or something.
My doc suggested that we get my hubby checked out first.He doesn't have any children, so who is to say that he can? I have a doctors appt for him today and then hopefully we can get the semen to the lab tomorrow morning.Atleast we can have that out of the way.
I also asked him if I should take another test.He told me that if I haven't started my period by monday then i should go get a lab test done.
Thats the info on me! It would just be nice to know that things with the two of us are good and that there is nothing stopping us from getting pregnate.
Talk to you ladies later...

Hi Lori! When I read your post it sounded so similar to what me and my DH are going through. I have a 21/2 year old and have been trying for #2 for 10 months now. I know how frustrating it can be when every month you see that pinkish fluid and think "Darn it!". I've taken my tests (can back negative) but DH still has to take his semen test (hopefully we can do it soon...you really have to time the semen test accurately). I have the Taking Charge of Your Fertility book and started temperature charting last month. So I'm hoping that in the next couple of months it'll happen. The book is so informative. I wish you all the best.

Lori..Lori...Lori!!! Hi girlfriend! Congrats on trying to conceive!!! SEnding you mounds of babydust *~*~*~*~ HOpefully everything will check out a-ok at the Dr.

Remember each month it is NOT over until the ugly ol' lady comes to town... (AF that is) I seriously had pinkish tinge (was implantation) on the exact weekend I was suppose to start my period. I even got a negative on a blood test..... and low and behold a week later I found out I WAS pregnant!!!!

I have an extra "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" book if you want it. If you just pay for shipping I will give it to you if you are interested!

What have you been up to? How is the new job????

Sending you baby dust!!!!!! *~*~*~

RE:Not good news

Oh thank you! How have you been ????? The jobs are going well, although my boss is still trying to stress me out some! But she can stick it where the sun don't shine.
How far along are you now? How are you feeling?
Well, I was talking to the Dr office yesterday and it wasn't good news.:-( My hubby as a low sprem count.I knew somthing had to be up.2 yrs with no protection is along time, not to get pregante.We don't know how low it is b/c we haven't been to the Dr yet.My husband is gone out of town and we can't go until Monday.I don't know what our options are.They may still want to check me out at the sametime.
I think he feels bad about it b/c I really don't think he thought it was him.He is in meetings all week so I called him and left a message on his cell phone.I told him not to worry about it.If its just the 3 of us from here on in, thats fine to.I didn't want him to get stressed out over it.His job is pretty stressful to so I don't know if that would have anything to do with it.Stress is not a good thing period!
Anyway,thats it.We will see what the Dr says on Monday
Hope all is well.
Thanks for the dust
