So the last thread disappeared so here's the deal: I realised it's really annoying to drive yourself mad wondering if you're pg during the 2ww. Newbies welcome!

They usually start bloods at a year. Ky GP did my progesterone 3 times to get an accurate picture (ie over 3 cycles). I went back in May (so 17 months ttc) and then got referred. Do bear in mind 80% of couples conceive within 1 year and 90% within 18 months. After 18 months they drop the ? From the subfertility label.

We've been trying a year now, I assumed that we would be referred before next year but guess now Sad

havealittlefaithbaby · 19/07/2011 17:09

Hmm that sounds a bit...long izzy. Remind me how long you've been ttc? Has it been a year?
If you do have pcos the bloods may or may not show something but only a pelvic ultrasound will do for sure. I found charting helpful when I reached a year ttc because my bloods weren't convincing to show I was ovulating. Ironically I didn't see regulations ovulating pattern and took my charts to my GP. This was enough to prompt him to refer me. After a couple more months I do see ovulation now!

Hi all, had the drs today. She reckons i have polycystic ovaries but said that we need to be ttc 18 months before they will do anything Sad

She did however order a bunch of blood tests to check everything from thryoid function to rubhella status! Getting these done on friday. She said if they dont show anything then she will see me january for a referral.

Have what a great present that would be - and well deserved.

I am finding this the LONGEST 2ww ever. Still only 9dpo so probably another whole week to go before AF comes to visit - I really wish she would double book me with her holiday or something and not bother coming this time Sad

In theory she could turn up any time from tomorrow as that would be CD28.

In other news, I have a sore ankle - is that by any chance a pg symptom? Surely......

How are we ladies? I'm just gearing up for my Hsg and pelvic ultrasound in Wednesday (still spotting so just hoping that stops overnight). DH has decided this is the month! Af due just before my birthday (and I'm 30!) So he's decided he's going to give me the best birthday present ever!

NinjaChipmunk · 18/07/2011 15:47

princessamz · 16/07/2011 15:27

right girls,
af due tomorrow but no symptoms now except for uncomfortable boobs(not a regular symptom for me).i was sick this morning and have been very dizzy for a few days.should i test?Confused

queenrollo · 15/07/2011 20:16

izzy Sad it's so frustrating isn't it. I've been there at least three times in the last 18 months, and it's so hard not to get your hopes up.

Well I'll probably not be around until next Friday, as we're heading off on hols tomorrow and it'll be hectic last minute packing in the morning before we set off on the long drive.

Look after each other while i'm gone - and when I get back i'll be a couple of days away from expected AF so i'll probably be on here a lot doing the

Biscuitsandtea · 15/07/2011 19:03

Oh Izzy - lots of hugs going your way. Hope you can get in with GP to sort it out.

(By the way I used to be LisaJayneS but changed my name....)

izzybizzybuzzybees · 15/07/2011 18:52

Feeling pretty down, had another negative test today, the most depressing kind cos it was a digital one so had to look at a horrible not pregnant which wasn't pleasant. Think ill make an appt for gp next week x

havealittlefaithbaby · 15/07/2011 18:47

Evening all! I'm much better today, pain easing, finally able to enjoy an alcoholic drink so I'll be letting my hair down tonight :)
ninja sorry to hear about the lack of voice, is it all husky for luring dp/h instead bed or does it hurt and make you feel rough?!
izzy how you feeling?

NinjaChipmunk · 15/07/2011 08:45

Sorry about the bfn izzy
It's my day off today so just deciding what to do.
Have a lovely day everyone.
