Mel's TTC Diary


Well today is my first day of doing this. I have been married to Graham for 11 months and we have been trying for a baby for about that long now.

We have so far found out hubby has low sperm count.
I had the results from the mid cycle blood test today and there is no problem with that (which i suppose is good news), Hubby has appointment with Doctor on Monday as I think he is being referred to a Urologist.

I have been taking pregnacare tablets on and off since we have been trying and hubby has been taking multivitamins for the last month since finding out about low sperm count. Both have cut down on alcohol, we dont smoke, hubby has even sold the car to cycle to work as part of his new fitness thing, I have taken up another night of netball and I am also on the weight watchers diet to lose a little bit of weight. Every little helps (I hope!)

Yesterday we found out that our best friends have fallen pregnant and they were only trying around 3 months, Although extremely happy for them, myself and hubby feeling very very frustrated and wondering why on earth it hasnt happened to us yet. Had the lowest of low days yesterday.

Sooo today I have been out to Boots and I have bought:
Sanatogen Pro-Natal His and Hers (as opposed to pregnacare and multivits)
BBT Thermometer
Ovulation Sticks
Evening Primrose Oil

I was thinking of getting the clear blue fertility monitor however it is very expensive (may be next month!) I do not know if any of the above is going to help at all but it is worth giving it a go as desperate now!

Motto today: Think Positive!!

Well its my birthday today - Yay, just had my hair cut in a shorter style and liking it. We went to Thorpe Park yesterday and got a little sunburned! Whoops, the rides were a great way to let off some steam and just scream LOL!

I was speaking to my friend whilst at Thorpe Park and she only had a 40% chance of falling preganant as she has a problem with her ovaries, and her little one will be 1 in July! I thought it was bad enough OH having a low sperm count, but I am now feeling very positive, The way I am lookin at it is that only 1 sperm is needed to fall preganant! OH is taking his Multivit with added Zinc in them so fingers crossed!

Going to do an Ovulation Test tomorrow! Will let you know how it goes xx

Hiya,

Thought I would write today! I realised today that Clearblue fertility sticks tell me to start using them at day 8 of my cycle, and i worked out that i might actually need some more by the time i think i will ovulate! Hmm think they are being sneaky and wanting to get more money out of me!?

Still negative ov sticks at the moment although got ovulation pains and feel very watery down there at the moment, totally forgotten about bbt for the last couple of days, me and hubby have had lots of 'loving' this month and i am feeling very positive this month, fingers crossed!

Sorry bout the brief, too much info entry - Got netball in a bit

Until next time......

xx
