Trouble getting pregnant? (1 Viewer)

[Grady Wilson]

Best of luck to you all. I know how frustrating it can be to want kids so bad and not being able to. It took my wife and a me a long time before we had children. We now have two. Just hang in there. Thoughts and prayers your way.

At home test came back negative again. Had the blood draw this morning to confirm, but it's unlikely.

Not sure where to go or what to do at this point. We are doing OK as a couple it seems, supporting each other when we need it, but that may crumble at some point. My wife said that we should start reading up on adoption, which scares the #### out of me. I evade that conversation whenever it comes up, and I told her that we'll need a mediator in order to discuss that properly.

Sorry to hear that man. What scares you about adoption? I ask as we have thought about looking into it as well.

Sorry to hear about the negative test.PM me if you have any questions about adoption.

Bummer, Z. Obviously I don't know any of the medical details, but it sounds like you and your wife and going through something similar to what my wife and I went through, right down to the healthy but strained relationship between the wife and I after repeated negative results, and me struggling to get comfortable with the possibility of adoption- we actually met with agencies before she reversed course and decided to try the egg donor route. I'm happy to talk details if you want via PM or over a few beers.

 

[Wrighteous Ray]

Sorry to hear it Z. I think it's totally understandable to be somewhat freaked out about adoption, and I had the same reaction when we looked into it. You should definitely talk to some of the folks here who have adopted to discuss your concerns.

We didn't end up adopting. There are other people here who know a lot more than me about it.

I don't know any of the medical details either. One of the most frustrating thing is that we don't know why the embryos aren't implanting. It could be luck, or it could be something else. Both embryos that were implanted had very good quality, but there might have been something wrong there as well. We don't really know where to turn for answers right now, and that's tough.

Sounds like the same thing that happened to us a couple months ago. Eggs look good everything seems fine but they don't implant. It is very frustrating. Stay positive. What helps me is the hope that maybe just maybe it will happen naturally until we can save money to try again.

Sorry to hear this Z. (happy new year anyways)FWIW- when my wife and I went into our fertility treatment, we talked through with eachother a schedule of how long we would do it before looking into alternate routes; IIRC, we said we'd give it two years or until the insurance ran out. That way, we knew we weren't going to be getting poked and prodded and disappointed endlessly. Fortunately we never had to cross that bridge, but it made the journey and our relationship surrounding it a lot less stressful knowing that we would go to plan B at a predetermined point (of course, I found out later that the wife wasn't really even considering adoption and wanted to go straight to surrogacy). (eta... we knew a bunch of couples who went on and on with their fertility treaments and we saw how it drove them crazy, broke and miserable

You guys are still pretty young IIRC?- doesn't take the stress out of it, but gives you more room and time to try to figure out what's going on with your junk or her hoohah. And from experience, getting her on board with your fears is infinitely better than the dodge and weave that will leave her thinking you're no longer on board with kids... my 2c.

Funny- I've been away from the FFA for a while, checked back in and really only felt compelled to check in on this thread (not even the soccer thread!) as someplace meaningful.

Best of luck to you, Z, and to the rest of you guys. If it's any consolation, my 2 kids are driving me ####### batty.

Well it happend.

The greatest news we could of ever gotten. Out of no where after trying for 3 years, multiple IUI 2 failed IVF we are pregnant. My wife surprised me with the news the first week of January. I was in shock could't believe after all that we have gone threw it happened naturally.

We just had our first Dr. appointment today and saw the heart beat. Man was that cool.

I would like to thank everyone in this thread for the support. And to the rest of you waiting stay positie and relaxed good things can happen. It seemed that once we fully came to terms that we may not ever get pregnet it happened. Not sure if it was related but I think just accepting and relaxing made a difference.

I'm am so jacked right now. We truly live a blessed life.

Starting round 1 of IVF.......we'll see....

 

[SouthJersey]

1st time reading this thread. I'm dragging at work today since I was up till about 3 last night reading all 21 pages. I gotta start off with saying congrats to all the new and expecting dads. And keep your head up to all the guys still trying.

I had a couple questions and was wondering you guys could steer myself and my wife in the right direction as we're trying for our 1st kid.

How old were your wives (and you i guess), and how long had you been trying when you started seeking fertility treatment? I saw Z mentioned that they're both 31, but was wondering about the rest. We're both 33. Our concern isn't that we want a kid right now. But more with my wife's age and that we want at least two, potentially three kids...so she'll most likely have to have our other children over the age of 35.

My wife stopped taking the pill sometime early this past summer (i think June), but we've been actively trying since September. Since September we've been using the menstrual record chart to track ovulation and try and especially make sure to get busy during those good days. For the past 2 months we've also used those ovulation pee test kits. I bought a big supply of them from Amazon about 2 months ago (100 tests for $10) but when my wife tried 2 months ago she never had a positive ovulation test...we wrote that off to it being cheap tests. We bought one of the more expensive ovulation tests from Walgreens last month and she did get a positive...but it was only for 1 day and it wasn't even a strong positive according to the indicator.

From the stuff I've read online, you're considered to have fertility problems if you can't get pregnant after a year of trying, and I understand things like conceiving a child can't just happen exactly when we want, but wifey is getting a little nervous/impatient. Is it worth it to seek out the help/advice of doctors now? Or should we wait a full year because if we go to a doc they'll just send us home and tell us to keep trying for 6 more months? Also, how long does it take to see a fertility specialist? When I had to see a dermatologist a couple years ago...all the ones in my area had about a 2-3 month wait for an appointment. And how long does it take to have all your tests done and come up with a plan of action?

Thanks

 

[El Floppo]

SJ- my wife was 37 and 41 with ours (both through IUI).

I'd say to relax about this if at all possible. Can't hurt to find a doc now, if just to find somebody you like for 6 mo from now. Our doc in NYC was super busy, but readily available if that makes sense; wife could mak an apt close to the day, but usually had to wait in the doc office for a while.

I would go see a doc. to check out her hormone levels since the ovulation tests are LH surge detectors. LH is critical for release of the egg once its fully developed. However, I think active infertility treatments is not necessary right now. You might have to sell the doc on getting those tests as they might not be covered by insurance since you're not past the "one year mark".On your second question at Kaiser in CA, we had a consult on infertility, then had to take a class on fertility, and then we got to actually do some tests. I think it was about 2 months, maybe a month and a half. Here in BMore, we go to Hopkins and the wait times were lower and although we had to take a class, our previous treatment stuff "counted" and thus we got to go into treatment immediately.Finally on a personal note, my wife an I are taking a break from fertility stuff right now as we're traveling a lot for the next few months. We'll be giving it a go again in April or so. The goal is to get a crap-ton of good eggs, fertilize as many as possible and freeze a bunch of embryos for later "frozen transfers". Also, I went to see a urologist to have my junk examined just in case. Not a great experience since I had to have my prostate checked... Anyway he recommended I take a few things, like a supplement called "Co-Enzyme Q10" which he said had a beneficial effect on semen quality.Another thing to do (to circumvent the "one-year rule") is to go to a sperm donation center and go through the hoops of signing up to be a donor. The first sample they use to evaluate sperm quality, and I think that you should have rights to see the results. So you might be able to get a semen analysis for free.

[Wrighteous Ray]

SouthJersey, there's no real reason to wait a full year to at least get a few tests done on both you and your wife.

 

[TobiasFunke]

Our doc in NYC was super busy, but readily available if that makes sense; wife could mak an apt close to the day, but usually had to wait in the doc office for a while.

SJ-My wife was like yours, nervous and impatient from the get-go. She had reason to be; she was an only child and had some concerns about whether she'd be able to have a baby after 35 or so because of her mom. We got married just before her 30th birthday (I was 36) but she still pushed to crank up the process quickly. So she started looking to see a doctor almost immediately. I'm glad she did, because it ended up taking us 2.5 years to get a bun in the oven.

The one year thing is probably tied to insurance coverage. We met with a fertility expert after about six months. My wife explained her concerns and also that we didn't want to pay for anything drastic/expensive yet. He ran some tests on both of us (side note- least enjoyable solo session EVER) and started her on some relatively inexpensive fertility meds. That way when we got to a year, we'd already exhausted those less "extreme" options and were ready to move to some of the more drastic/expensive stuff like IVF. Still took us another 18 months and my wife resigning herself to an egg donor to get it done, so I'm really happy she started it up so quickly, even though at the time I was hesitant.

[Tiger Fan]

SJ - we were both about 28 when we started trying and I think after a year or so we sought treatment. But I would echo the statement about checking with your insurance...some of them have very specific things you need to do in order to be covered. you want to make sure you do those things.

 

[SouthJersey]

Thanks fellas. I think the big thing she's worried about (and I guess me too to an extent) is not getting a strong positive on either of the ovulation tests we've tried the past couple months. We're gonna try with the ovulation tests this month and if nothing, go see a doc.

In the meantime I'll dig up all the rules on what our insurance covers with regards to fertility.

My wife is 31 I'm 35 when it worked for us. Some how it worked naturally after everything we tried.We were trying for about 4 years with some sort of treatment for the last 2 years.

superfantastic

 

[bentley]

We were 33 when we started treatments, 35 when we had our first through IVF.

We'd been trying for like 9 months when we went to the fertility doctor but we told them we'd been trying for a year. The diagnostic testing was all that insurance covered.

 

[Wrigley]

The worst part about not being able to pregnant, is watching all the dolts that haven't tried get pregnant, poop them out one after another.

Well bad news last week. At our 12 week appointment we found that are baby had no heart beat and was the same size it measured at 8 weeks.

What a 180 of feelings from 4 weeks ago when we got the wonderful surprise that we were pregnant.

This all happened last Monday so it's been about a week. We are doing pretty good now. Trying to hang onto the positive that we at least can get pregnant.

I fell so bad for my wife.

And to the rest of you waiting stay positie and relaxed good things can happen. It seemed that once we fully came to terms that we may not ever get pregnet it happened. Not sure if it was related but I think just accepting and relaxing made a difference. I'm am so jacked right now. We truly live a blessed life.

Reading this again still makes my smile. The short time we were pregnant was one of the best times or our lives. I hope we get to feel that way again.
