Trying to Conceive - November 2007

[Selected]: All categories Pregnancy & Parenting Trying to Conceive

I was diagnosed with P.C.O.S. in June of this year. I was heartbroken. My doctor said that I have a few cysts, not a lot, on my ovaries. I have done some research on P.C.O.S. and I am in fear that I will never get pregnant. I have irregular periods so that does not help at all.
I have been ttc for over a year and a half now and nothing. I get so upset and I cry sometimes. I try not to worry about it, but it is just too hard.
My boyfriend is very supportive of me, but it just kills me that we have had no luck after all this time. We are both financially and emoitionally ready for a baby but this having P.C.O.S. kills me.
Anyone out there have some advice/success stories out there to keep my hopes up? I would appreciate all your help.

Id like to ask my doctor to help me with fertility testing. I feel like something is wrong with me. I have posted before about pelvic pain issues and problems falling pregnant and I feel like I might have PCOS or PID or cysts or endometriosis. I dont want to sit and wait around for another 6 months. How long do you have to be trying to get pregnant before they will test you for stuff? What do they do in the standard testing? What should I be asking for and how should I be asking for it? Should I be insistent? The docs just tell me to go home and try get pregnant but I dont know if I am even ovulating at this point. I hardly EVER see stretchy cm, its usually lotiony or just clear, and nothing that looks like egg white. What do you have to do or go through before they will consider you for testing or try you on Clomid?

when women ttc they are always going through symptoms but never actually being pregnant? isn't this frustrating that every month you feel something diff and automatically you start thinking of the possiblity of being pg. How can one control this , its soo annoying?

We have just started trying, and she is very nervous that it will take a long time, or that there will be complications with the pregnancy. What can I do or say to help her stay calm and patient as we try to concieve our first child?

My menstrual cycle is not due until tomorrow the 6th. I took a EPT pregnancy test on Saturday the 3rd and there was a dark horizontal line and a very light vertical indicating a positive (I couldn't wait, as we have been trying for a couple of months) I was not sure if my eyes were playing tricks on me so I bought another test, this time a first response and I tested yesterday the 4th, This time I got one dark line and another faint line again. I am going to schedule my Dr. appointment today to make sure. I just want to know if there has been anyone who got the same as me and ended up not being pregnant? I don't want to get excited and then get my hopes down.

I bought some K*Y warming Jelly today for the first time. It says that its not a spermicide. What does that mean?

Does it kill sperm? or is it only a lubricant?

Can it prevent me from getting pregnant in any way? can sperm swim through it? PLease help. I need some good answers for these questions. thank you!

My partner and i have been trying to conceive for the last month, no pressure or stress happening as we know once it is time it will happen - so we just enjoy it!
I have never been on the pill etc...and have fairly regular periods sometimes they are out 2-3 days.
Anyhow, i have done 3 tests in the last few weeks - more out of curiousity than anything and they were all neg although i am now nearly two weeks overdue for my period.
I will be taking another test tomoro and then one late next week. I haven't really felt nauseous just a lil dizzy sometimes and very tired.

Could there be a possibility of pregnancy or am i hoping for it too much?

I know the only way to determine is a test...im just curious as to whether i'd feel different by now if i was..and just to hear and learn more about how everything works even tho it varies from woman to woman.

So here's the deal....AF is due on Thursday (11/8), but of course my curiousity got the best of me and I tested this morning. At first glance, it looks like a BFN, but when you look closely under the light, there is a very faint line. I'm wondering if that line is already there and that is why I am seeing it, or did it the test really detect a small amount of pregnancy hormone in my urine.... Please, give me your opinions!

If you had your period on october 19. Do you always ovulate 14 day right after? If that is the case i shold have started ovulating around November 1 or so. I noticed the mucous secretions on Tuesday ( the 30). Does that seem to soon to start ovulating? Or do you see the secretions right befor you start to ovulatate. I am so confused

okay, I have read many sites on trying to concieve, and I just need a little assurance, and some advice from those of you who may have done this, and maybe you can help me with something that's not written in these sites.
First period was 10-01 to 10-4 then again 10-24 to 10-29. I tried one of those conception calendars and it had today as being a fertile day, but my cervecal mucas is not clear and stringy, it's white and boogary, but not clear and stretchy. From what I've read, that your chances of getting pregnant is higher with the clear and stretchy mucas. please help, is there any chance of concieving tonight? My husband works really weird hours, is on the road alot. We both want a family, but sometimes he's away at "the conception time." So I was wondering if there was anyone who knows more then what these sites have provided for me. Thank you so much.

My husband says that if i think about making a baby sooo much that usually stuff doesn't work out when you think about it too much. We already have a 15 month old and we'll be starting to try for baby #2 at the end of next month! We've been planning on it for the past few months now and i'm so excited to start trying. He is excited as well but is worried that I won't be able to get pregnant for some reason. I chart my temps and mucus so I know exactly when I ovulate so how could I not get pregnant if we try on the days I know i'm fertile? I know it isn't always for sure to get pregnant for the first few months of trying but all the woman in my family have gotten pregnant right away with all their babies and so did I with our first which wasn't really planned since I was on birth control pills.

My period isn't due for another week and a half. I started to bleed today, but just very lightly(like I can only see it when I wipe). My question is, how long does it take for implantation bleeding to occur once pregnant, and how long does the bleeding last for. How soon can I take a HPT for a positive result? And could it be a sign of pregnancy? I don't know what else it could be with my period still so far away.
PS Had sex on Tuesday and Wednesday. Thanks for all answers.
