I have decided to create a blog about my problems with conceiving not only to help myself but others who are going through this difficult time. hopefully we can give each other some advice and comfort :)
My story-
Me and my partner Thomas decided to start trying for a baby about a year and 8 months ago, At first i wasn't concerned but as the months passed me by i started to get worried and anxious.
We decided to have a chat with the doctor (this was about a year of trying).
At the doctor's he asked us about our sexual history etc and had a feel of my stomach (which he didn't have any concerns about) we came away with some leaflets and we were both sent for blood tests and Thomas had to for a semen analysis test. (which all came back normal)
I put off going back to the doctor for months and months because i was afraid of what the next steps would involve and that they would tell me something i didn't want to hear.
Finally a light switched on in my head and i thought to myself if i want a baby so badly i am going to go for all the tests and do everything in my power to have a baby with Thomas. (that may involve jumping on him every night- joke lol)
Anyway on a more serious note i made the appointment to see the doctor and he said that everything was looking good from the results of both mine and Thomas's blood test and his semen analysis. The doctor then told me it's just a matter of time. I then told him that i was worried that the problem could be with my tubes, ovaries or something else.
Anyway the doctor was really lovely and asked me if i would like to be referred to the fertility clinic at my local hospital. this was like music to my ears :) i wanted to cry or hug him or something but instead i had a big smile on my face :) He then said don't worry and that he will help us in anyway he can to get me pregnant. I then started laughing and so did he as he realised what he said hehe (me and my dirty mind)
We then recieved a letter in the post i had to go for more blood tests and a routine chlamydia test- that i was not happy about lol. but as i said i am prepared to do anything to get a healthy baby at the end of it.
So now after more tests i have finally got an appointment on the 26th of july i am excited and nervous at the same time.
Sorry if i have rambled on a bit i just wanted to tell you my story and hopefully you will follow me on my journey as i am going to blog my thought's and feelings on a daily basis :) and hopefully my dark days will turn into brighter days when i have mine and Thomas's baby in my arms :).
Thanks for reading my story xx
