Great news Keep, glad to hear the tubes are nice and clear. I got a BFP the cycle after my HSG (sadly ectopic but BFP nevertheless!) And this BFP was the cycle after my lap & dye so there's definitely something in the increased fertility after the tubes have had a good flush out - fingers crossed! Smile

Geek Great result, hurrah for lovely EPAU Sister! Smile

Sparks 65 pts pregnant sounds promising, as do imps and maybe's blindingly obvious symptoms - I can feel some BFPs are just around the corner!

keepitgoing · 19/07/2012 17:07

That's a relief geek, here's to a speedy appointment!
sparks are you driving yourself mad with all possible permutations?? Make dh take you out tonight!

I was surprised how tiny the fallopian tubes are. Also seem quite long, poor sperm. Do they tend to meet in the tube or in the womb? (Ignorant..)

Right, have sent dirty message to dh to make him forget his cold and come home soon raring to go. Then we have the less glamorous task of somehow hauling boxes into the loft... What an evening... Grin

Solars · 19/07/2012 17:52

Hello, hello!

For those of you who asked, we had a lovely meal out last night, reminiscing about our wedding day!

Munx gosh I'm so glad to hear you're ok now after that scare of yours.

Geek I am so glad you have an appointment date which could be brought even further forward, well done you!

Keep really pleased to hear all is well tubes wise, now off to dtd and that's an order!

Sparkes every time you talk about points the little voice in my head keeps saying 'what do points mean? Prizes!' Now that's showing my age!

Maybe & Imps you both are so diffed!!

Right, I'm a little shell shocked here, I got a call from my GP this morning telling me that she spoke to our pct today and they may be able to get me onto fertility treatment before I'm 40! The original referral was to BARTS who rejected us but she said that if we go alternatively to Oxford then they could get us started ASAP! And this afternoon I got a call from Oxford fertility unit booking me in for my first appointment next week!! Eeek!!! I honestly thought we wouldn't get any help from the NHS and now we have our first appointment next week, I have to say my GP has been an absolute star!!

Geeklette · 19/07/2012 17:57

OMG solars that is the most amazing news!!! No wonder you're feeling a bit shell-shocked, but what a star your GP (and the new referral unit) is. I am so utterly thrilled to bits for you Grin Grin Grin

SecretSparkle · 19/07/2012 18:04

Wow solars that's fabulous news!!!!!

Imps7 · 19/07/2012 18:10

Oh Silars hooray hooray hooray!!! And s few more for link!!!!!!

Princesslovelyboo · 19/07/2012 18:47

Hey solars that is brilliant news! I am so pleased for you! And Geek, you brookers are getting it all sorted today!! Brilliant!

whimsicalname · 19/07/2012 18:51

Yay a happy day for lots of brookers. Well done to solars and to geek for good results (and getting them) and to maybe for sounding very on it.

I've just discovered 3 library books are in a shipping container somewhere on it's way to the atlantic. Whoops.

keepitgoing · 19/07/2012 19:14

Order obeyed, solars... And that is such good news. Hope you can start next cycle then. Brilliant, well done to your gp!

keepitgoing · 19/07/2012 19:17

smegs if you're around there's a lady who just had an hsg yesterday and got a bfp today, despite having had a period. Like you... She's really worried, if you have any wise words for her she started a thread this morning.

ScrambledSmegs · 19/07/2012 19:21

Thanks keep, will go look and offer words of absolutely no wisdom :)

Geeklette · 19/07/2012 21:42

Bored and fed up here. I was meant to do a quick, simple job from home this evening and four hours later I am still at it with no end in sight. I am drawing the line at 10pm and giving up.

To make matters worse I have womble cramps, feel wetter than a wet thing on a very rainy day in Wetville, have a smidgin of pant snot, my CP is HSO and MrGeek is in CARDIFF!

SecretSparkle · 19/07/2012 21:51

When is mrgeek back?!

Geeklette · 19/07/2012 21:53

Tomorrow evening sparks, but he'll be knackered from travelling and will have just done a major exam. The OPKs are still neg and CBFM has yet to beg for a stick. I have to say I'd be amazed if I ov'd in the next few days, it'd be the earliest ever, but the sooner I get MrGeek's swimmer-horde marching, the better I'll feel!

SweetieDoesIt · 19/07/2012 22:01

Just popping in to give a big high fives all around for Solars and geek for their amazing news!

Solars that is really quick turn around, well done your GP. Hope you aren't mentalling too much {{{big hugs}}}

SecretSparkle · 20/07/2012 07:04

Temp up a smidge, although was convinced AF was here I went to the loo and there was absolutely nothing there!! Hmm curious and curiouser, will wait to see what the day brings!!

keepitgoing · 20/07/2012 07:46

Here's to a crazy day of knicker checking, eh sparks... Brooking for you, would you expect her today, do you reckon?

geek, you hold off your ov, am sure it's just your body teasing you, just seduce mrg tonight to put your mind at ease. You do all the work and its a good way for him to relax after his exam etc.

Another super miserable day weather wise. Still, we are off to see my family for the weekend which will be lovely.

Happy Friday!

keepitgoing · 20/07/2012 07:48

Ah, smegs, you are v wise and calming. So glad all is going well with you. Is it a boy, girl, or surprise?

Geeklette · 20/07/2012 07:49

Exciting stuff sparks! Brooking that the mare stays well away from you.

My temp has finally dropped to its normal pre-ov level this morning, so hopefully this means I am getting over my cold. MrGeek will be back tonight but I don't hold out any hope of SFF until the weekend.

No more news to report this end (other than I am still trying to finish off the 'quick' task from last night)!

GreenOlives · 20/07/2012 07:53

That's brilliant Solars! Smile

Imps7 · 20/07/2012 08:11

Morning! Sparks this is very exciting. PIAR PIAR PIAR PIAR!

Geek excellent work with the quick task - bet you're glad you started that one.

Keep - did you get some well-timed SWI in last night? How is the packing going?

The Octopigs have been wiggling about so much during the night that they have caused a bleed. To the untrained eye, this would appear to be AF. However, I know that this is not AF and there are 2 reasons how I know this:

  1. My eye is extremely trained; and
  2. It has already been confirmed that I am pregnant with 8 piglets.

It is shocking weather this morning. I am soggy and cold. Summer sucks arse.

Weekend plans all??

keepitgoing · 20/07/2012 08:17

Summer does not even exist. I Hung my washing out the other day when the sun came out, and it got wet twice before I gave up and brought it in.

imps hardly surprising there's a bleed with that many in there ;) we did indeed swi last night, twice... Hoping the remaining dye won't have killed all the swimmers, will do it again tonight.

sparks poas poas poas poas

SecretSparkle · 20/07/2012 08:37

Gah quick post

As you were brookers, I've just started spotting!! Assuming I OV'd in accordance with my CBFM then she's bang on time!! Sad ah well, going to ask hubby to go and purchase copious amounts of wine!!

SecretSparkle · 20/07/2012 08:39

Oh and just saw imps post, carrying octopigs would cause a bit of irritation so Blates not AF (if it is we're cycle buddies, except for my stupidly long cycles)

NoMaybeAboutIt · 20/07/2012 09:05

Morning all.

Imps merely some breakthrough bleeding. Do they not realise how much trouble they are causing?

Sparks I dear you may be suffering from the same. This in the only logical explanation.

Keep twice you say Wink well done you.

Solars this is the best news ever!! The spirit of brooking is indeed alive and well.

Geek am so pleased you got answers too. And I hope ov waits till MrG is rested.

Whims I wouldn't worry about the books. I mean, what they going to do? Stop you from leaving the country? Wink

I have woken up to a huge bunch of roses, lilies and Gerberas. MrMaybe must have gone shopping on his way back from work at stupid o clock this morning. The womble weirdness has stepped up a gear, I feel horrid too. Thank goodness I'm 'working' from home today. Had a good friend at work announce her pregnancy yesterday. She was so lovely as she knows what we are going through. She wanted to tell me first. It knocked me for six if I'm honest, but I'm sure I will feel better today
