Beanies, bumps and bikinis (all by next August please) :)

New, combined thread. Welcome all!

Congratulations Iamblozzom! That's great news, I'm so pleased for you. Sending you lots of glue to help that little beanie to stick.

Jane313, sorry to hear you're not ovulating I hope your consultant referral comes through fast for you. DH and I were referred to a gynaecologist at the start of November, and our first appointment is December 15th, so not too long to wait. I hope you'll continue to hang out here.

As far as I go, DH and I are back from Florida, still slightly jetlagged. CD11 here, so the BD-ing is commencing I'm taking a real cocktail of herbs and vitamins this month in an attempt to extend my luteal phase - evening primrose oil, vitamin B6 and vitamin B Complex. I'm also drinking 2 or 3 cups a day of Fertilitea (I was pleasantly surprised how cheap the shipping cost was). And on Wednesday I'm going to try accupuncture for the first time (well, my sister-in-law swears it worked for her).

Hugs,
Artoo.

thanks

artoo thats really nice qucik appointment. My dr told me I would wait a month for a letter fromt eh fertility unit and then it would be 2-3 months at least for an appointment. And i know that the letter only left the drs last week (10 days after my appointment). I might try taking a few of your supplements. I did read that you couldn't take fertilitea on top of fertiltiy drugs.

jane313,

Yes, you're right, Fertilitea contains Agnus Castus, which souldn't be taken with clomid or other fertility drugs. But I work on the theory that I can stop taking it after I've seen the gynacologist if necessary, and it might help in the meantime

Hugs,
Artoo.

Hi everyone,
Congrats to Iamblossom. Hope everyone is feeling a litle better. I'm so sorry if I offended anyone with my August baby comment. It's made me think of maybe trying this month. I just don't know. Ok, I'm deciding whilst I type . I won't use the OV test sticks and we'll take it as it comes. If it happens, it happens.

hi do you mind if I join you? I am on day 4 of the 2 ww after IVF - 2 embryos put back on thursday. I have a DS 10 months after 7 years and 10 IVF attempts. This is our 11 attempt, and I am so desperate for it to work as I can't face doing another 7 years for a sibling for our little boy.

Homemama you didn't cause offence to me and i'm sure you didn't offend anybody else, i apologise if i did come across as being offended i was just being nosey .

cd8 for me nothing to report have had a sharp pain happening on the right side since yesterday not sure if that could be ovulation but its uncomfortable, we bd twice yesterday .

hiya hows everyone? well my af was due yesterday and as yet ive no signs of it, usually i can tell a couple of days earlier that im due but ive got cramp type feelings and i feel sick and dizzy ( although i dont know if im just imagining it in the hope that i have fallen pg) anyway i did a test yesterday morning on the day i was due and it was a bfn was gutted whats the chances i have tested to early ( on the day i was due on) is this too early, or am i clinging on to some thing thats probs not there!!!

Hi everyone. I'm now on CD33. Not sure when to test as my last cycle was 46 days!!

Normsnockers, Every Sunday I ask DH can I put last week's ST in the recycling bin. It's huge and it gets everywhere. I probably only read quarter of it and that's during DS's sunday nap. DH however, feels the need to read every bit, cover to cover!

Anyway, Aprilgirl, it may well have been too early. I tested on the day I was due and it was very, very faint. Try again in a couple of days.

Hope everyone else is well. This thread is getting long again. Any ideas for a new name?

Sorry, didn't say welcome to Suss!
Wow, what an exciting but scary time for you. Well done for keeping going. You should post that on a seperate thread as I'm sure your experiences would be an inspiration to others going through IVF.

Hi! Thanks for replying. No I don't know when I ov'd. Feel a bit of a novice at all of this

ttc romantic the very notion! Thank god I don't feel romantic with a doctor looking at my bits. Although the one I had when I conceived my DS was very very gorgeous. It certainly helps to have something beautiful to look at when you have your legs in the air! This time, though I had a v sweet Consultant with a fab sense of humour - essential when you are doing IVF.

Sorry suss i missed your post before , welcome to the thread and good luck with ivf.

Aprilgirl how are you this morning hope the af has stayed away for you.

I know what your talking about normsnockers with the loos fairy and all, our fairy replaces loo rolls,empties dishwasher etc also we have a maid service too when dsd empties her bin she puts it outside her door along with dirty cups etc. but thats teens for you, well this teen is.

Nothing to report here still having that pain on the right side down below although its not as bad, if its still niggling when i go for my smear at the beginning of the year i will mention it.

Staceym11 has not posted for a while I hope shes ok, are you lurking stacey? if so how are you getting on?

hi puppy, well no af as yet so still clinging on to hope!! so 2 days late now!! dunno when to test again got a pg test in cupboard just waiting to get out i can hear it tapping on the door im sure xx

If I were you I would wait till at least tomorrow to test, you tested yesterday right? I say this because if you are pg then the hormones doubles every two days. Keeping my fingers crossed for you, well trying to they are so cold i can't hardly move them brrrrrr!

hi.... back online after my house move. I am over 2 weeks late but test was negative. I am hoping that the reflexlogy sessions I am going for will have some effect and I can start getting my AF so that I can have some chance of knowing when I ovulate.

I am going to try and catch up with everyone's news now.

no puppy i tested sunday and it was negative ( didnt matter which angle or light i held it in was defo neg !! was thinking testing friday cos out with the girls sat night and dont wanna drink if i am xx

The days are going so fast i can't keep track, i have to keep looking at the calender as i never can remember what cd i am on.

Welcome back micku5 how did the move go, are you all settled? Do you normally have a regular cycle?
