Hello! Glad I amused you with the celebratory humous. It was more to do with the middle class thread than any actual desire.
As for the squirts, erm I can tell but DH's reaction Blush and I don't think he fakes it and also by the amount that emerges from me.... Naice. I think it was a bit late in the cycle last night, but can't hurt, non?
Good luck for kitty and pip tomorrow.
Night night all x

marie I'll be on clomid (to ensure I ov), menopur injections (to mature the egg) and ovutrelle (as my trigger shot). I get 3 goes at iui on the nhs. Failing that, I get 1 go at ivf and then possibly a go with a frozen embryo. My area seems to be pretty good really. If I lived a few miles out, it's a very different story

marie456 · 13/08/2013 22:03

Sorry Kitty I don't know much about iui. What meds do you take with it? Will it be clomid? Are you going private or nhs?

Will you get results that day kitty? What are they actually scanning for if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks guys, I'll keep you posted xxx

marie456 · 13/08/2013 20:26

Oh try not to worry Kitty. It must be such a stress for you Sad. Ditto what Boodle said.

Thanks Boodle. Think I will carry on this cycle and see what happens.

Boodle9 · 13/08/2013 20:21

Kitty - fingers crossed for you that it will all be fine!

BlindKitty · 13/08/2013 20:19

marie ready as I'll ever be! Just starting to panic there will be something wrong with my uterus/endometrium etc

Boodle9 · 13/08/2013 20:08

Hard to say on the progesterone /b6 front then. Perhaps carry on with it this month and see how the results come back. My consultant wanted 3 progesterone tests to confirm ovulation was occurring anyway, so you can always ditch the b6 for future progesterone tests if you're concerned it might distort the result.

marie456 · 13/08/2013 19:56

Rag week! Hehehe! You all prepared for tomorrow kitty ?
Only cycle day 7 here Boodle Ov is usually day 17.

BlindKitty · 13/08/2013 19:45

? charming I should be rejoining the clomid crew again as well tomorrow, assuming my scan goes ok

boodle are you out of bed yet??? bloody teachers Yes I guess a day 2 scan is nowt in comparison to childbirth! Really not sure how Dh is going to be though! He won't even shag me on rag week!

Boodle9 · 13/08/2013 19:42

Marie, I did get out of bed in the end! Just back from the gym. Still spotting but only when I Blush furkle...

As for your progesterone, I've never heard anyone say that their GP recommended b6 for luteal phase...that's not to say they don't, but I know no one professional has recommended it to me, despite progesterone and short LP fretting. What cycle day are you on at the moment?

marie456 · 13/08/2013 19:23

So, I have a question... I'm off to see GP Monday and I'm going to ask them to test progesterone levels. Thing is I've started vast quantities of b6 this cycle. Should I stop taking them incase they give a false reading that progesterone is ok when it might not be, or do I keep taking them incase I get miraculously diffed after fertile weeks passionate, spontaneous, spine tingling shagathon and end up miscarrying again as a result of potential low progesterone?? If progesterone is low what would happen? Would it just be a case of them telling me to take b6 anyway?

marie456 · 13/08/2013 19:15

Oh yes tally the trumper !!

And spare you actually have time to change the bed before work? Impressive.

marie456 · 13/08/2013 19:12

boodle get out of bed! Any more news?!
kitty sorry the red witch came, but you're off the CLoL now and progress starts tomorrow.
What else have I missed? ...

Evening all

kitty are you all booked in then?

Hey boodle you still under that duvet?

rum we do have a vast range of seating etc available at Berry HQ including the Sofa of Pity (SoP), Rug of Rage (RoR), the Pouffe of Possibility (PoP) or the Chaise Lounge of Limbo (CLoL) not to mention the BubbleBath of Gloom(BoG)! And now the Duvet of Denial!

I am still on the SoP, heading for the BoG Sad

Hmm, hard to say Boodle. I guess it ain't over till the fat lady sings (or you POAS).

Is there a Couch of Comfort among the furniture in this place? I need to curl up on it for a bit. I thought I was feeling completely cool about our infertility clinic getting started appointment tomorrow, but actually I'm bricking it. Eh.

Boodle9 · 13/08/2013 15:06

Unfortunately, I doubt it, Spare. I'm 15dpo today and I had a slight dip and spotting around 6dpo. I really thought the spotting last night meant the end was imminent; now I just feel stuck in limbo.

This is how my chart looked this morning. Big drop = not good.

sparechange · 13/08/2013 14:51

boodle without wanting to raise false hopes, is there any chance it could be implantation spotting?

Boodle9 · 13/08/2013 14:40

Duvet is fantastic...I'm still under it! Admittedly, I have started doing something more productive (back to school work), but duvet definitely helps make it more comforting than sitting at my desk. In fact, I think duvets need to make it onto the Berry furniture list. I'm thinking Duvet of Denial, as I still have no more spotting, which is cruelly raising my hopes again, even though my temperature plummeted down this morning. I am a fool in denial, for sure.
