13 years tcc
Hi internet people. My husband and I have been trying to make a full term live birth for 13 years now with limited success. I had an abusive childhood with 6 pregnancies before the age of 18 (all of wich miscarried by week 10). My husband and I have had 8 up to 2nd trimester miscarriages and 2 etopic pregnancies in the beginning of 2nd trimester.
I have Finally found an OBGYN who is willing to work her insurance magic. My insurance has absolutely 0 fertility benefits and 100% prevention and termination benifits.
My OBGYN has ordered us to actively try and chart everything until February and that she will order blood hcg tests same business day as I get a home positive pregnancy. She also said that if hcg is positive and rises after 48 hours she will see me same day for aditional testing including antibodies which could be a factor due to our RH incompatibility.
I have been charting my periods for 3 years straight and have a fluctuating cycle that hovers between 29 and 35 days. Glow predicted 10 days ago would be the start of my ovulation window and today would be the end but so far all my bbt, opk, and cm are normal.
My husband lives with major depression and is on medication for it so we not only have infrequent intercourse with ejection but know that his sperm could be not at optimum.
In the last 10 days we have had "baby making sex" twice. This morning was the second time, but I started sneezing and hiccuping right after, and made a huge mess of the freshly made bed that we got frisky putting sheets on. I am so frustrated that current life has put so many roadblocks in our way. We have wanted to be parents together since I was 7 and he got me a baby doll on my birthday. He 1st asked me to marry him when I was 4. We got married and started trying for children when I was 20.
Not sure exactly what I am looking for by posting but I just needed to get it out of ny head and maybe find others who have anything similar going on so I dont feel so alone.
