AF appears to be right on time : ( Is a preconception Dr. appt a good idea?
If you have been trying with regular unprotected for at least one year, that's when they recommend going to see a doctor. My husband and I ttc for 1 year before I went to my doctor. They put me on one round of clomid (Husband was transferring duty stations and didn't wanna get me started on something that you have to keep cycling because I'd be getting a new doctor)....I didn't concieve. So when we got to Va Beach, I went and saw reproductive endocrinologists who did tests on me and my husband and we were both perfectly normal. My husbands motility was in the lower percentile of normal, so they deemed us both perfectly healthy in the reproductive aspect....Now 3 years later I am 12 weeks pregnant and loving it! So we ttc for 4 years before any success. Remember you only have about a 20% chance of concieving each month...even if you have unprotected around the time you ovulate you're chances are actually only slightly higher about 5% higher....Since you are 39 days, I would say you ovulate around days 18-23 of your cycle. Only have every other day to give your husbands sperm a chance to build up...If you want, try buying some of those otc ovulation predictor tests....or First Response has a fertility test you can buy otc. I'm not sure how much it costs, but from what I have heard, it is VERY accurate....Now that I realize I didn't answer your two questions...Yes, they will check on days 3 and days 5 through blood to see if your levels of certain hormones are going up...They may send your husband to give a sperm sample. They may also do a transl ultrasound to make sure all your reproductive organs are functioning correctly. Don't worry...I was like you...4 years and nothing..and then in Feb. I got my big fat positive...3 days past my missed af...Hey...being gy and crampy is also signs of pregnancy...not trying to get your hopes up...but you could still be pregnant....alot of PMS signs are also signs of pregnancy and vise versa....If you don't start....buy a test and Good Luck! I hope you do get your BFP soon!
