The Elderberry Pavlovas are pimping everyday – a lovely thread for 30+ ladies TTC #1 (Thread 7)

cats sounds like a very positive appointment

merk back tracking a bit here, but how long are your cycles? I don't Ov until sometime around cd19-24 It's a ridiculous wait after each AF until the next chance!!

And cats that sounds fantastic! a step in the correct direction!!!

Accidentally watching Home Delivery. Haven't got to any upsetting bits yet but I'm wary. I shouldn't really be watching. dh is asleep next to me and I need to have a shower before bed. can't drive a train smelly! Its drawing me in though.

Yay cats sounds like a positive appointment!

*this evening

P.S. chuffed for other berries getting appointments. Hurray!

merk sorry about af. Burn the book!!

Hello! Saw gyn this evening. He was LOVELY. Listened to me and took me seriously. Did not mention that things could settle down by themselves or tell me to wait and see. He did say that he didn't think it was anything serious, but wants to get some tests done to see what is going on. He thinks I am not ov. So had bloods taken this evening and am going back for dildo cam. Nice. He said he may put me on meds to stimulate ov, but would have to see what the tests say. The bloods were all hormone ones that you have on certain days of cycle, which of course I can have altogether as who knows where I am.
Do it, cherry, it's good to get some answers.
Am encourage by the opk, but have had positives before and no bfp, so not holding my breath. Dtd this envy, but was no conclusion, ifyswim. Hoping the ewcm sticks around for another day......hmmmm.

Cherry just basic tests, first step of the infertility journey I guess, days 3 and day 24 blood tests, not really sure what they're for, I think one is to check for ovulation.

Its just in a supervisory capacity as I'm a technician not a teacher. I thought about training then realised I couldn't cope with the mean kids - the ones I'm taking tomorrow are nice ones that haven found the teen sulk yet!

Good luck for Wed. What bloods did you have Bunny?

I've been weak v stressed from stupid job and have had a glass of wine on the go every night this week. My bad especially as I'm trying to encourage DP to drink less. Ho hum.

Frog any good? I saw it on the listings but as DP won't watch any birthing programmes I let it go! I still have 2 OBEMs in the can waiting for some non existent indulgent sofa time to myself. Whenever the hell that might be!

Nope. We are currently watching a Got To Dance marathon. Feel good crying ahoy!!!

Ooh much fun Tally small small amount jealous until I remembered it's in a teaching capacity and I could never ever do your job! Also sounds mucho far away as I'm a northerner!

Hellooooooooo

Just got in, went out after work, had a few glasses of wine as so pissed off that AF looks like she is on her way grrrrrrrr

Yay barking and boodle glad you have appointments! I am seeing docs on weds ref my blood test results but scared...

Cats that's fab, sounds like you're on a roll! Thx for all the tips too I'm really interested to see what my apt tomorrow brings. A clue about what's up would be a start and definitely going to push for referral. Do you have a date yet for your gyn apt?

Great news on your apts too Barking and Boodle feels like lots of activity going on to get us those BFP's! Merkin I'm gutted for you love but sounds like you can take lots of positives and look forward to being super fertile to boot fingers crossed!

Well jealous of all you peeps who have cleaners and therefore must have real life proper houses to invite someone into- ergo aren't living in a building site. We must be pretty damn close to living the Grand mediocre Designs dream, rennovating a small terraced house. The dust alone would scare anyone let alone the remenant 70's wallpaper. Please please let me qualify for the Kevin fertility method!

Anyone watching a programme called Home Delivery? It's like I'm punishing myself by watching all these women giving birth at home.

Drive a train in the euro tunnel! So exciting.
My secondary colleagues, you have my utmost respect. They couldn't pay me enough money to teach there.
Reception will do me nicely.

Yes, Im looking forward to easter hols too. we have until next Thursday at school, although prizeday is Thurs, so we'll be off midday. And tomorrow I'm taking some year 8+9s to Eurotunnel to drive a train, so that should be much fun!

Yes Pip our hols are ridiculously early this year, only been 5 weeks since half term! Not complaining though as don't mind a longer summer term, teach secondary so not long before my exam classes leave

Off for Easter already Happy? We've got another week. Which is nice because it means Easter weekend is at the beginning, not middle.
Hopefully we'll be moving house at some point in the holiday.

No news here. 8dpo and all is well.

Sounding even more like a chemical pg then, so fx it does indeed mean you'll be super fertile this cycle .
I've got period pain and am weighing up whether to go to the pub tonight (thirsty Thursday, would be rude not to). Given I'm not drinking anyway might just be lazy and drive.

Woohoo for Boodle at finally getting your appointment!
Sorry to all those who have been visited by horrible AF
Cd4 here so nothing to report. Finish school tomorrow though for two whole weeks and heading straight to Switzerland for freebie with DPs work then back for a few days and off again to West Wales for mini break with DP. So at least I'll be nice and chilled when shag week comes around this time!

Yay barking and yay boodle!! Both brilliant news!!!!!

I'm expecting a full account of everything they ask and everything they say about your LP boodle !!!
