Advice While TTC

Hey there! It’s been 2 years and some change of my husband and I TTC. It’s been very lonely and I’m feeling unsure of myself.
I spent 6 months on Clomid (made me go crazy) and although I ovulated we were unsuccessful so we switched me over to Letrozole and so far so good. But when I talk to my OB and I feel not heard.

I’ve had my overies checked, husbands sample checked everything looked amazing!

I get my progesterone checked every 21st day of my cycle as per usual but I want more monitoring, I asked my OB for more and she gave me a funny look…maybe get my nutrition levels checked? Is there any more I can do. To see maybe what the cause is?

I’m feeling like I’m starting to give up..
My dr Isn’t listening, and I have no family/ friends who are going through what I’m going through..

Any advice would be amazing please..

Have they checked your thyroid and prolactin levels?? Also, if it's an option, I would look into a different Dr. I was TTC for a few years with no reason as to why I wasn't getting pregnant and the Dr's weren't listening to me, then I tried a different Dr and he did a lot of tests on me, and my prolactin levels were elevated so I was referred to an endocrinologist for further testing, and he gave me medicine to lower my prolactin levels and an extremely small dose of medicine for my thyroid cause it went from perfect range to borderline high, and after I started that I ended up getting pregnant to my now 5 month old baby. Definitely advocate for yourself. Sending baby dust your way ❤️

Both prolactin and thyroid came back good.. I’m thinking about it.. it’s really hard to get a new dr when she prescribes my meds and it took me 4 and a half months to get set up and start seeing her..

It's been a while of TTC for my husband and me, and I totally understand wanting to know what’s going on inside in terms of hormone levels and ovulation.

Fertility monitors can be really helpful. I’ve been using Inito, which gives actual hormone levels and predicts high fertility, peak fertility, and confirms ovulation. It’s helped me understand my cycles much better. The testing is easy and only takes about 10 minutes to get results.

Hope this helps, and good luck!

Can baby mamas be friends?

My son has an older brother from his biodad. Biodad has never had contact with my son. One thing lead to another though and the other child's mother and I got in contact and are planning a meeting for the boys. Biodad has no idea any of this has happened. Biodad also hasnt had contact with the other child in about 2 years. Just thoughts, opinions, anyone been through something similar?
Edit-Thank you all! Have definitely been feeling somewhat weird about it because we never met before but now know it can be a good thing definitely helps. I can't wait for them to meet. My son has been asking for a brother and I can now happily tell him he has one. That just happens to be 13. Im sorry for yall that fight/have issues with the other baby mamas. Sadly some women rather be stuck on the men, when the kid is the one who really matters. They're the ones that end up getting hurt and missing out.

Is it normal to test positive still? (Wouldn't usually do one)

Not the best pic and clearer in person. Is this normal? I've not had any sex since having my LO but I've had strong cravings, sense of smell is strong and my hair still hasnt started to fall out. Im 7 weeks pp so 🤷‍♀️ I wouldnt normally bother testing but with those symptoms that I never really have its like whats going on. Cravings for something very specific too and can only get from KFC now 😩 so its annoying

Am I pregnant?

I lightly spotted almost 5 days ago, which is not common for me before my period.
My period was supposed to come today. I should have tested in the morning but its 5:30pm.
Is there a second line??

When did you get a strong positive?

Tested last Friday got a positive faint did a digital said 1-2 weeks which would be about right 4 weeks at the time. Did another this morning still faint…. Slightly worried about it being chemical if it isn’t getting darker. Should I be using all the same type tests?
