Hi

[@LucasF1909]

I finally fell pregnant on cycle #7 the month I was supposed to go and have my ovaries checked to see what was wrong. Been trying for baby #2 since September 2019 and had 2 miscarriages which both took forever to conceive😭 It's heartbreaking when it's all you want and I just felt like I was failing my son by not being able to give him a sibling😔 But everything looks good with this one so far and I'm over the moon to have made it to 12 weeks! ☺️ Good luck with everything xx

Im going through the same thing as you. Ttc for second baby and taken 7 months and had my first appt with naturopath fertility doctor. I didn’t realise it would make me feel so deflated when getting a negative test. All my friends fall pregnant in 1-2 months which makes me feel that the world is so unfair. I do believe in gods timing so Im just trying to stay positive.

[@TamTam-ro5wd]

Reading your comment made me feel that I’m not alone in my emotions / thoughts. My sister got pregnant straight away and I’ve been trying for 6 months and I was feeling so down… but as you said, it’ll happen during gods time. Best of luck to you❤️

Everything gonna be fine babe!

It's such a misconception that seeking fertility treatments has to be after trying for a year. Thank you for sharing you sought help before the year mark. I hope you get answers and can bring your baby home soon!

[@DifferentKindofGlam]

Exactly! Its such BS.

[@Be149xo]

It's not a misconception, just purely depends on the area. Many places do refuse to see you unless you've need actively trying for a year

[@_Q_C]

@@Be149xo while there are places that refuse to see you until the year of trying mark, seeking other places is an option. The misconception I was speaking about is that you shouldn't seek any fertility help until the year mark.

I have PCOS and did fertility treatments to conceive my children (I have a 3.5 year old, a 1.5 year old and I’m currently 10w pregnant) and I’ve also had 4 miscarriages. I used Clomid to conceive my first 2 children. It took 4 cycles with both of them. With this pregnancy I took a different drug called Letrozole and it took me 5 cycles to get pregnant. I did have miscarriages with some of those Clomid & Letrozole cycles, but I’m speaking about the ones that were truly successful. Anyway, I would 100% recommend Letrozole over Clomid! More fertility doctors are prescribing Letrozole now, as more studies have come out in the last 2-3 years that it’s more effective, it’s just taking time for doctors to change their initial protocol. I had way less negative side effects with Letrozole; Clomid made me feel horrible! Letrozole also is less likely to produce multiples, as usually just one dominant follicle wins, but with Clomid usually you release all your dominant follicles. The two drugs work completely different but have the same end result in forcing ovulation. Also, you only want to test progesterone on CD21 if you ovulated on CD14. You want to get that blood test 7DPO, otherwise it will be inaccurate. If you want to improve egg quality, I recommend a supplement my fertility doctor had me take called COQ10. It takes a couple months to start working. And a prenatal with DHA is great too when TTC! Those were supplements I took to try and reduce the possibility of a “bad egg”.

I've been TTC for the exact same cycles for baby #1. I've been so discouraged every time. I'm only 23 so I didn't know if that was too young & too soon to go to a fertility specialist since everything online says if you're under 25 not to worry...hoping you get a BFP soon! :) thank you for sharing!!

Wishing you all the best and looking forward to your next update!

[@itsrachelschultz_]

Make sure you do “CD21” tests on “peak + 7” CD21 is assuming you ovulated CD14. If that happens, then CD21 is fine, but if you ovulate after CD 14 you’ll wanna go in 7 days after peak! If you go in too close to ovulation your progesterone labs won’t be very accurate!

[@VictoriaCiftci]

That makes a lot of sense. She never mentioned about changing the date if i ovulated on a different CD. I’ll make sure to check with the labs!

I was told that letrozole is safer to take than clomid because I guess there's higher risk of multiples with closed. Idk how true it is but my doctor wouldn't put me on closed because of the multiples risk and my history of complications

Hi

[@zeinandhasan9220]

If you are ovulating exactly at day 14 then the blood work done at day 21 will be accurate but if you ovulate late on your cycle the blood test results won’t be accurate, its better be done at 7 DPO

[@monisiaw]

Did you think about trying vitex? I am one cycle behind you Also have one child and I personally will try natural remedies before anything else as they have alot less side effects. 6 cycles isn’t that long to try I would personally give myself time :) I live around a lot of religious orthodox Jewish women some who are friends and they basically don’t use any birth control and from my observations and discussion with them there are natural spacing between the children as sometimes it just takes longer to conceive between children. I hope that helps :)

[@TheFallLover]

I had to get checked for my fertility. I don't menstruate and I don't ovulate. I tried to do everything naturally and at home first. Then tried my regular primary doctor. That didn't help. Seeing my ob now. Was put on letrozole. Half way through cycle 2, and I ovulated for the first time in a year a few days ago. In the TWW officially and praying hard for my baby. I want another one so bad and I just haven't been successful since I don't ovulate.

I passed a giant chunk of tissue and ive miscarried before so i knew this was NOT my period clots. Went to the ER, they said it wasnt pregnancy. Went home, did a test, POSITIVE. Called the on call OBGYN and she read my ER blood work, she said my HCG was 522, Positive. She was so sorry they misread my results. I did more blood work today, i see my OBG tomorrow. I did a retest last night: still positive. Please send good vibes and prayers. I really want this pregnancy to keep. ❣️❣️🤞🤞

[@MsFlamingFlamer]

hey Victoria. I've been following your videos for months. I just want you to know I'm in a similar boat as you. My husband and I started trying last summer and I ended up pregnant. I unfortunately miscarried at 7 weeks at the end of September. Ever since then we have still been trying for our rainbow baby. I take OPKs like you and also my BBT. My husband's sperm analysis came out great. Last month I had a hysterosalpingogram (HSG) test done on my uterus to see if there were any blockages. My fallopian tubes are clear but there looks to be a polyp or fibroid inside my uterine cavity. I have a saline ultrasound next week to see if they will determine to do surgery on it or not. I think my next steps after that may be IUI. I just want you to know that you are not alone. Baby dust to all. 🙏🏾
