Don't think I'll need them! Confused

ladybunnikins · 19/09/2013 21:14

Bunny, I'm an anaesthetist, although never had a general anaesthetic myself! The procedure takes about half an hour, done as a day case. Expect to be a bit groggy for a couple of hours afterwards.Possible common side effects: sore throat, feeling sick (usually given an anti sickness drug anyway just in case), shoulder pain and a bloated feeling. Anaesthetics are really safe and most people are absolutely fine.Surprised they are going straight for that rather than HSG!

BlindKitty · 19/09/2013 20:58

Ah I love that show! Even though I'm not in the teacher club!

I've got tonnes of opks and pg tests as well but I still haven't quite accepted things so I'm hanging onto them for now lol.

CatsCantFlyFast · 19/09/2013 20:45

Does anyone want my leftover OPKs? They're only ICs (and there may be a couple of hcgs too). Will go and count how many I've got left but if anyone would give them a good home I'm happy to post if you PM me your address
Assume all the teachers are settling in to watch educating Yorkshire?

Yay ! barking you get back on that horse girl Grin

Thanks for the advice gil I have only had dildocam so far so very nervous about lap and dye!!!

CatsCantFlyFast · 19/09/2013 18:37

Well done barking! Not surprising you're a bit emotional

barkingtreefrog · 19/09/2013 18:21

Well, I'm officially back on the ttc bus Blush .
It was lovely, but I did cry when we were finished, suddenly felt very emotional. Freaked DP out a little I think but he gave me a hug and I feel much better for having got 'it' out of the way.

Have you ever had a Hycosy Bunny? I had a hysteroscopy in August which was a general and it was fine. The lap and dye is a bit more involved and I was originally down for this but ended up getting a different surgeon due to original surgery being postponed and given that my Hycosy showed no blockages she thought it was unnecessary to do the lap and dye so only did the hysteroscopy. Incidentally I am waiting for a date to go back and have a similar procedure to remove a fibroid. I think they recommend a week off work if you have the lap and dye. Try not to worry too much Thanks.

RevoltingPeasant · 19/09/2013 09:05

Sid I also have weird cramps now! Confused Are you also on CD29 or 30?

I have a hell of a morning at work first though - must stop skiving!!!

Bunnygirlie · 19/09/2013 08:22

Oh dear RP and sid come sit next to me on the Sofa of Pity.

Yep I still haven't moved from the SoP, perhaps the Bed of Bewilderment may be better! Still very much mixed feelings here, I don't really know how to feel.

Calling all berries who have had a laparoscopy, I don't even know when it will be but I am bricking it all the same! Only ever had one local op, never had a general Shock

SidneyBristow · 19/09/2013 08:09

No AF yet here but I have horrifying cramps. BFN again this morning so RP is the pity pool still open for business?

Also still I clomid delivery and I'm torn on taking it anyway so things seem pretty bleak here at the moment.

CatsCantFlyFast · 19/09/2013 08:00

RP grr at not knowing what is going on. But as long as she stays away there's still hope. FX for you

barkingtreefrog · 19/09/2013 07:16

Sorry it's not a bfp RP but hooray for not having a short LP!

RevoltingPeasant · 19/09/2013 06:34

Cannot cnp on iPad but...

RevoltingPeasant, 34, ttc since May 13 but with various "challenges", AF due 16.9

So.... Nada. I woke up this morning to still no AF and poas, but BFN. Not much ambiguity this time. Think I will leave it to the weekend now and just see if AF comes. I have had one 29 day cycle before, early in 2012, (this is CD29), so this might be another.

On the positive side, I know at least I have a 12 D luteal phase which is one worry over!
