Well the witch has caught up with me at last. So I have decided its time to start a new thread as I think our christmas reindeer need a rest.
So step aboard ladies and join me for a hunt for the golden egg.

right, so that sounds very promising. No wonder you couldn't get pregnant if possibly both were blocked. So by the sound of it there's one fully up and running and another has doubts over it but may even be ok. You seem quite upbeat. Are they going to look into the suspect tube again? and when are you due to ovulate?? I'd be eager to get in there this month if it isn't too late.

Pipbin · 18/08/2012 09:15

I'm due to ov on Monday to Wednesday.
We have been at it already.

I am being up beat about it. I have a friend who got pregnant with only one tube so I know it can happen. As you say, if both were blocked I've got no chance. Now I've got half a chance.

Sounds like good news pipbin, hopefully the due has cleared that tube for good but I relieved to hear you're dtd in earnest Wink

Dye^ Blush
God I'm shit at typing!

Pipbin · 19/08/2012 14:12

I knew what you meant. I feel so much more positive about it now. I know that at least one tube works!

So last night I did an OPK, now I rarely get a positive on an OPK, I only get them for a very short time. And last night it was very strong. I also did one this morning and got a very strong result too.
This is unheard of for me. Could it me something to do with the HSG or the hot weather making the urine more concentrated?

OP posts:
Pipbin · 20/08/2012 16:05

And just now, another strong OPK! I've never had one where the test line has been darker than the control line!

Oooo how exciting!! Get in the bedroom Wink

blackcatsdancing · 20/08/2012 18:28

agreed, exciting! its how i felt last month when i got 2 strong OPKs on consecutive days! don't make my mistake though and stop too soon. I wasn't temping very accurately and my ovulation seems to have been delayed so we should have carried on for another couple of days. Good luck!

Pipbin · 21/08/2012 13:45

Hurrh, smear test came back normal! Got to have another one in february though.

ShiftyFades · 21/08/2012 14:33

Yay!!! Good news on the smear Grin

I had blood test yesterday and have a scan on Friday. Wonder if I'm just old.... Angry
Nah, we all know I'm not old, I just act that way Wink

GP (twat) is scanning me for fibroids... I'm happy to have the scan, but would rather be referred to my lovely gynae.

Treats · 21/08/2012 15:40

Hi ladies - just touching base.

Congrats Crazy on your BFP - how are you feeling? Hope it's all going well.

Shifty - (love the new name, btw) - sorry that your GP is such an arse! Good that you're getting some tests though and hopefully some pointers as to what you can do.

Pipbin - good news about your tube! I suppose that it must mean you have a roughly one in two chance of a successful ovulation each month? Fx for this month's ov - hopefully the procedure will have prodded things into action in there. I conceived DD in the same month as a HyCoSy, so it can happen.

I'm now 8+3 and starting to show! One of the nursery mothers asked me outright this morning if I was pregnant and a man offered me his seat on the tube even though I wasn't wearing my Baby on Board badge! Got my first booking appt this Friday and the first scan is scheduled for 18th September - only 4 weeks away! Suddenly feeling a bit scared......

If I could scatter baby dust, I would......

Pipbin · 21/08/2012 16:06

Nice to hear from you Treats, glad to hear that things are going well.

As you say, theoretically I have gone from a 0% chance to a 50% chance.

OP posts:
ShiftyFades · 21/08/2012 21:38

Hi Treats, so glad you are doing well. The 12 week scan is so exciting.
I shall feel like a pregnant woman on Fri as I've got to to do the whole "full bladder" thing... How disappointing Sad
pip have you been getting plenty of bedroom action? Wink

Pipbin · 21/08/2012 22:50

Shifty I've had to do the whole 'full bladder' thing before. I spent the whole time worrying about needing a wee! Luckily someone had the good sense to put a loo right next to the scanning department so I could run straight in there.

Well as we are both off work we have been able to have a bit of 'afternoon delight'.

Good stuff pipbin Wink

ShiftyFades · 22/08/2012 19:58

Smear results back... Normal Grin
Wink

Pipbin · 22/08/2012 20:31

High five for normal smear test results.

OP posts:
blackcatsdancing · 23/08/2012 08:18

nice to hear from you treats. Wow time goes fast, over 8 weeks already! Are you glad you're showing? I remember hating the in between stage and just wanted to be obviously pregnant- partly so i'd get offered a seat on the train/tube. I still remember one male commuter telling me to sit in an empty first class seat and that he'd sort out the ticket inspector if he said anything (none came).

great news on all these normal smear results! yeah
love the afternoon loving. My favourite time to do it. We often use Sunday afternoon for that activity.

ShiftyFades · 23/08/2012 08:54

Talking of afternoon loving.... Yesterday, at about 2:15pm I was incredibly horny Blush
I mean mind boggling horny... Even started to find my counter signing officer attractive (he's about 13 years older than me)!!! Blush
Nearly emailed DH to tell him to leave work early... But refrained.. All sorted last night Wink

Pipbin · 23/08/2012 10:35

Its all that Fifty Shade you keep reading. It's giving you ideas!

OP posts:
ShiftyFades · 23/08/2012 12:54

It is! And I'm only half way through book 2!! Wink

Pipbin · 23/08/2012 16:30

I find that I'm very up for it just before OV and then I really can't be bothered afterwards.

Had my temp rise this morning so all signs point to being post ov now!

OP posts:
blackcatsdancing · 23/08/2012 19:55

i'm the same. My libido goes way up around ovulation, then takes a nose dive. I wonder if DP notices? We don't discuss TTC, puts him off and he is still uncertain, though going along with it. Well pipbin looks like you may be in 2WW, good luck.

I'm CD7 , oddly had a touch of EWCM yesterday and again this morning. This afternoon was just lotion like. Never sure what that is on FF so put down creamy, its more of a consistency between creamy and watery. No way have i ovulated yet, earliest ever was CD11, latest CD15. Probably gearing up though.

blackcatsdancing · 23/08/2012 19:56

oh i did an opk just in case. nothing much there.
