Re: Lets check in...

waiting to get a clean bill of health from my doctor...then we will begin trying...

Re: Lets check in...

2 days late - sore boobs, headache, crampy.

Normal PMS symptoms but... I did a test and not sure of the result so I have to do another one.

Re: Lets check in...

First IUI was yesterday - in 2ww now.

Re: Lets check in...

I think I'm 7 dpo. Only got to bd once because I was sick so I'm not too optimistic.

Re: Lets check in...

1st real cycle TTC. Started temping miid-cycle and FF says I am 4 DPO. DH has been away for busy on and off so timing the BDing was rough, but if FF is right, we BD'd the night before I ovulated (at my parent's house )

To all

Finally got AF on sunday after taking provera. I am on CD 5. I am using my saliva opk and will start taking my temp tomorrow (I was confused when to start and so I will have a late start with the temping). I am hoping that we O this month.

I had went for blood work up with my gyno and she had said that my bloodwork came back and it looked like I may have PCOS but wouldn't be sure until a pelvic sono but my ins wouldn't approve it because I haven't been trying for a year. So my dr said to keep on trying and using opks and charting till she can see me again in 6mo which by then the ins will hopefully approve the sono or I get new ins.

Thiks does not seem right to me. You were not ovulating on your own!! That is a medical issue! You need to call your insurance company let them know you are TTC and that you did not ovulate on your own until given provera. You need a sono-have your Dr write a letter if need be. Waiting 6 months if you have PCOS will not do ANYTHING for you.

I am going to say this to everyone on here. Ladies-Be your own advocate. If you think something is wrong it probably is!

I totally agree....please don't waste precious time!!

I aslo agree... my dr. did the internal sono right away when I told her I haven't had AF since feb... its a medical condition regardless of whether or not you are TTC and I don't see why your ins. wouldn't cover it!

Thanks Ladies for your advice, I wish I had been home all day to read this I would have def tried again with the ins. I get so frustrated with them that I tend to give up easily. I had no idea that I could get my gyno to write a letter to them. Do you really think that would change their mind? I have HIP and I am always having problems with them. I need authorization for every single dr visit, its quite annoying. I am only using this until my DH ins kicks in in a few months. I was just going to let it go until I get the new ins but you ladies def gave me the urge to fight against it. Thanks. I will keep an update next week about what happens. I am going to call my dr and have her fax them a letter. That was a good idea that I never ever thought about...neither did my dr.

Re: Lets check in...

I am in my first month of trying and am 6 dpo.

Re: Lets check in...

Not really sure where I fall now. FF changed my O day...so it says I'm 5 dpo. 3 days ago I was 8 dpo. Shrug....

Re: Lets check in...

I am 9 or 10 DPO (fertility friend switched on me too!). My temps are staying up there so I am encouraged but still trying not to test.

Just wanted to update. After a day of going back and forth with my ins company and demanding to talk to someone who actually knew what the
h ell they were doing, I finally got them to call my gyn office. I just got a call this morning from the receptionist and said that they just received a fax from the ins....They approved the sono vist

According the ins the reason it was dismissed was because they wanted me to go to there network radiology place not the one my gyn had requested. What a mess Hip is.

I am so excited that I can finally go. I have to call on moday. They are sending me to BAB Radiology in Hauppauge.

I want to thank all you ladies because I think I would have just let it go had it not been for your kind words. Sometimes I can be a pushover when it comes to things like this

Re: Lets check in...

New update:

I am taking provera now so that I can get AF and start my cycle from day 1. Then I will be taking metformin, which will hopefully get me t to ovulate!
Its good to be on the right track now.

Re: Lets check in...

5 days DPO and completely losing my mind.

Re: Lets check in...

Waiting to ovulate for second cycle of trying. I'm on CD9.

Re: Lets check in...

I got my second surge on Saturday afternoon (CD24), I tested again yesterday but later than usual and it was lighter than the control line...I BD on Saturday evening and yesterday evening. Would I have ovulated already and can consider myself 1 DPO?

BTW...some TMI...I had EWCM yesterday.

Thanks. Can't wait to call monday. I am using a saliva ov tester and for the last 2 days I got full ferns so I am assuming that I am oving. which I thouhg I wouldn't be with what the gyno had said about her thinking that I may have pcos based on the bloodwork. I am def calling her tomorrow and asking her what she makes of all this. I really hope I am.
