Popping on at work...

I am feeling so nervous and stressed today. I just don't know how to proceed with TTC anymore. I was reading that it's better to go with an RE once you start to have problems instead of an OB and most ppl on TTCMA agree. So now I don't know if I should do the Femara with my OB or just move onto an RE? If I should do accupuncture? If I should get ultrasound monitoring for cysts or to see how I respond to Femara? If I should get an HSG? Go with my OB for a few cycles and then move on to an RE? Be patient and see if it happens on its own?

There's just too many options and I don't know what the RIGHT thing to do is. It's just making me feel so nervous and I hate that. I can't make myself calm down. I know I just have to go with whatever I feel is right, but I don't KNOW what I feel is right. I think one thing and then I start second guessing myself.

I hate this. I feel like I can't make a decision or if I do I think maybe it's the wrong one. It's just stressing me out and I feel like if I do the wrong thing, then I won't get my BFP.

I'm tired of this and I hate that I have even gotten to this point. It feels like it's never going to happen for me. And even if it does there is no gurantee that my next baby will stick. With how long it is taking me to get pregnant this time around, how could I even handle doing all this AGAIN?!

I have to figure something out, I have an appointment to talk to my OB on Friday morning.

If I was in your situation I would go on to the RE. There is no reason to not go. That way you are getting specialized care with someone who is more knowledgeable with your "problem." I'm seeing a specialist now and I feel that they are really concerned and are working hard to get me pregnant. An OB has so many other things going on that you may not be getting all the help you deserve. I understand your frustration completely, I had 2 miscarriages before having DS and I thought I would never have a baby. Without my specialist I may not have had him. Go with your gut

Shannon, im really not sure what to say, but i do think that there is no reason not to go to the RE. it is always nice to see someone who specialises in what you need assistance in, not just has a general idea kwim? id see the RE if it were me.

It will happen, dont lose faith please. Keep your chin up hunny.

This is totally my opinion, but if i am not pregnant by the appt I scheduled with my OB on June 18, I think I will work with them for a little while before making the decision to go to a RE. I guess I would like to go with as little intervention as necessary to do the trick.

Like I said, just my opinion. I think that if you feel more rushed to get pregnant, you should go to the RE right away. Sometimes they are more aggressive from the start.

Good luck making the right decision for you!

Thanks ladies. I can't put my finger on what it is, but I guess something about going to an RE freaks me out. And I just hate feeling like I don't know what to do or what the next step is. Yesterday was just a bad day, I think TTC in general was just getting to me.
