The Elderberry Pavlovas, sausage bouquets, one giant sofa and the Gü pots of destiny! (thread 9)

Thanks peanut what guidelines should I be quoting?! I was just going to go along, probably end up crying and hope for the best!

thunder is your friend taking any kind of supplements at all? A friend of a friend wasn't having a period for ages and her fc recommended flaxseed oil. After a few months she started getting her periods regularly again. Maybe she could try that? For the past few cycles I've just started taking epo up until ovulation and then flaxseed oil from ovulation until my period to try and regulate my cycle a bit.

argh can't even get the strikeout thing right, WAIL! here, I'll take one of these

Hi everyone,

Can I ask a question on behalf of a lovely MN friend? She's been ttc for well over a year now but is under 30 so I'm asking on her behalf.

Basically her cycles have recently gone dooollally. Just totally unpredictable so now she's on day 50something and before had a really short one.

She saw the doc who took bloods and they all came back ok. She's been told she can go for a scan but the appointment will take months, and has received no other information or advice.

Ive mentioned the acupuncture for regulating cycles but does anyone have any other advice about things she should try or fight for at this stage?

Thank you wise berries x

Aaaaah here you all are! Overslept due to boozy overindulgence and missed the shuttle, had to run after it waving my sausages! Can I wiggle onto a squishy bit of the sofa, my head hurts..

Right, are we updating? TTC since May 12, instadiffed but then MC in Aug, since then cycle between 1wk and 3 months. Awaiting probable PCOS diagnosis from incompetent GP/consultant combo. CD13ish today, doing a boodle and waving legs in the air to retain swimmers as I type..

bajas excellent to hear your dad's on the mend!

yorkie good luck at the docs! Make sure you quote lots of guidelines at them, beat them at their own game

Bunny CD29...have you pimped?

bunny did you find reflexology really helped then? How did you find a practitioner? I had a quick google but no idea how to tell a good one from bad!

Ooh, shiny new thread - make space on the sofa of pity for me! I've been ttc since Dec 2011, lots of tests last month and back to the fc in May to see what happens next. 2DPO here, so most of the 2ww ahead. Expect much wailing and POAS action ;)

Morning berries!

Cycle 9 for me. Had mmc in December. Off to the docs this afternoon to try and persuade them to do some blood tests.

Morning everyone!

Nice ümlaut, bunny!

Me- I am on around cycle 11. Had mc last year and since developed hypothyroidism, so am now a regular drug user and frequently found being drained of blood.

Morning all. Cycle 9 I think. 3dpo (1st time I know- yay for temping) but no chance I'm pg this time as didn't dtd in the right time.

Good news- dad getting out of hosp today! This means we have a 5 hour drive to get him and mum home (was in my db's when sick) and then another 3 hours to get us home so we'll be exhausted but happy at work tomorrow!

Oh & it's shag fortnight for me (a week just don't cover it when you're cycles range from 25 to 34 days baby)

Morning berries! Cycle 6 but varying cycles & yet to pinpoint O. Off to docs if nothing happens this cycle due to advanced years (36) & the horror stories of all the waiting & useless GPs.

Found you all!!!
Cycle 17 here, HSG next month, internal scan and next fc appointment to follow up in July. Short luteal phase so trying vitamin b6 this cycle as won't get sweeties clomid until July and I'm not good at waiting .

. Thanks Bunny

Cycle 9 for me. AF due May 9th. Off to the GP for my referral if his one doesn't come up trumps. Getting married August 2014 so need to get upduffed soon to avoid walking down the aisle looking like a beached whale!

#Bounces in on the sausage shuttle and bounds hopefully onto the pouffe of possibility, falls off and ends up just about nearly on the sofa of pity...

I've been ttc since 2009 or is it 2010? I forget now. 3 mmc, including hospital trips for re-hydration each time. Waiting for appt with gynae at hospital to see if there is any reason for mmc before we're 'allowed' to try again. Appointment is not til June

Pouffe of Possibility . Can I sit on it, pleeeeeeeease?

As a refresher, I am cycle 21/22 of TTC (so long I can't even remember). Have recently seen FC and I am booking an HSG for next month and getting more bloods to check progesterone and prolactin this month. Due to see FC again in early July.
