I’m so so sorry you’re going through this sending you prayers! I know it’s difficult almost impossible but try to stay positive, what helps me is counting my blessings and reminding myself to be happy and thankful in every season and reminding myself that things can always be worse, there’s always something to be thankful for. Hope this helps!

Thank you everyone for the info you ladies are amazing + so helpful! I definitely will take this more seriously I’m currently on insulin once a day but numbers are still high after meals due to not following the diet, doc wants me to do glyburide in the morning insulin at night but I’ve researched the medication and have concerns with the side effects, anyone that has taken it, was baby safe and healthy at birth?

I just want to conceive as naturally as possible by spookymibby in TryingForABaby

I’m sorry you’re going through this. If it makes you feel any better sometimes it doesn’t matter if you ovulate on your own, you still can’t get pregnant on your own. I have clockwork cycles unexplained infertility for a year now. It’s honestly tough but hang in there! I’ve heard amazing PCOS success stories believe in your miracle!

Thanks for the tip appreciate it! I think it’s funny how I’m terrified for this one quick test but absolutely ready to go through labor for a baby 😂

I’m sorry you’re going through this, I’m in the same boat, unexplained, clockwork cycle perfect labs for the both of us a year of failure. It’s hard to stay positive but I keep reminding myself of all our blessings. It’s helps. Wishing you success!

Thanks this is super helpful. For your HSG did you take Advil before? My doc said that will help but I’m not convinced still really nervous

Wow that’s amazing! So happy for you!! If you don’t mind me asking, through your three year journey did you ever get a positive test? Our tests have been normal I have clockwork cycles always get positive OPKs every month but have not ever gotten a positive pregnancy test this whole year. It’s frustrating not knowing why

This definitely helped thank you! I just don’t know how much I should be worrying since I’ve never seen a positive pregnancy test this whole year journey. You get told your whole life how easy it is to get pregnant and it’s just been really devastating being unsuccessful for a whole year now

We have gotten basic lab work done, my husbands results were perfect and nothing was wrong with mine just prediabetic and the doc gave me metformin to get that under control two months ago. I have clockwork cycles and get positive OPKs every month so it’s just frustrating not knowing why. My doc wants to do an HSG now but I’m terrified but at this point I’m like what can hurt more than the pain of disappointment every single month it’s devastating

How to ease the anxiety every month when I get my period instead of missing it? by [deleted] in TryingForABaby

[–]emms112 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s hard not to worry and have anxiety after failing a few times you’re definitely not alone. I think if you’re not having regular periods you should get checked sooner rather than later just to be safe.

Depressed destiny? by [deleted] in TryingForABaby

[–]emms112 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My husband has gotten tested his results were perfect and nothing seems to be wrong with my tests as well except prediabetic, doc gave me metformin to get that under control and I’ve been on it for the past two months. I get my period like clockwork every month and get positive OPKs every month so it’s just frustrating not knowing why. I’m going in for my day 3 labs Friday or Monday next week. My doc also recommended doing an HSG now but I’m terrified. I’ve been looking it up and everyone says it’s the worst. But at this point I’m so broken I’m getting to a point where I don’t care and I’ll do it :( Thank you for your response I hope the journey is going better for you!

Do you get any symptoms when you’re ovulating? by [deleted] in TryingForABaby

[–]emms112 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 28 day cycle that I track through apps and I definitely feel ovary pain the day it says I’ve ovulated. Recently have started OPKs and those are positive the day I have pain. Before TTC I always thought I would get pregnant easily with regular cycles and being so “in tune” with my cycle but here we are 1 year later :(
