Hello all
boom well done on your essay mark & hope your day of dissertation went well. I'm on cd22 and have cycles anywhere between 23 and 33 days so I'm thinking prob another wk til af due....
Saw GP today about recent scan / bloods / stuff - said I have an arcuate (?) uterus & my bloods show low progesterone so might not have ovulated last couple of mths. i'm hopeful of this mth's test - have had all sorts of bloating / wind / crazy moods / cramps which is surely down to hormones?? Ultimately it's time for dh to get jizz test so we can get that checked before referral to FC. Part of me wants to leave it alone for a bit &see what happens but am also impatient (not to mention sick of almost being last woman I know who isn't pregnant / a mum)....
bunny hello & hope you're having a nice eve

Hugs foody 
Just back from a trip to the sales and a stroll around Boots. Got really happy looking at the new summer nail varnishes, til I saw the special set next to the one I had my hand on: called 'Boy or Girl?', a blue and a pink shade, apparently a perfect gift for the mummy-to-be (so said the box) 
why can I not even shop for a bloody nail polish without having babies thrown in my face!!! Grrr!

Hey bunny
Want a jammy dodger,
aqua I too am the last unpregnant/mum standing and I would be impatient too. So they won't refer you purely based on these results?
sid FFS!

Helloooooooo
aquarius my first two progesterone tests showed low levels, my third one was ok. Get DH to get his jizz test, I don't think you'll get a referral otherwise. My DH has had two failed attempts so far (apparently its tricky to get the stuff in the pot 
) so best to get him started me thinks!

Hi peops!!!!!
Well coincidentally (after what I said re bs yesterday) my friend messages me today to ask if I was free for her bs. She was actually going to do it herself as her bridesmaids were so crap at organising it. So you've guessed it... I've offered! Nursery rhymes and nappy games here I come!
Anyway, it's bound to be my turn soon hahahaha so I'll need her to organise mine
boom well done re the grade you go girl!
Btw, this thread has got very clomid obsessed lately! If I'd have realised how bothered you all were about it, I'd have given you mine! Totally can't be bothered with it anymore!

Ha Kitty is that a black market sweetie stall you're setting up over there? ...
So to continue with the clomid-obsession...I have been doing 'research' on fertility rather than my really boring data synthesis for the diss, and am wondering about clomid vs metformin vs clomid AND metformin. Apparently the double whammy combo is the best for getting bubbed up, has anyone been given both or is it just the clomid that's handed out as standard?
Thunder I will help you build a new yellow brick road, this is the beginning of my mega long cycle(s) of hope, positivity and luck! This is the cycle that I'm going to get Clomid, and in the next cycle eggs will pop out all over the place, and I WILL get diffed! And Lo! I have spoken, and it shall be so! and woe betide any consultant or act of nature who defies the word of Boom
Bunny heh, never occurred to me to wonder how they, er, get it on target... Definitely get the show on the road though Aqua, it's taken months and months to get things moving here plus you get the fun of imagining your OH getting stopped and searched by the police on his way to make the jizz-drop at the hospital I also have an arcuate uterus apparently.. I think maybe Kuma does too?
Kitty you're a braver berry than I, the mere mention of baby showers puts my hackles up! But good luck with it
Sid that's as bad as the flipping 'gender reveal' donuts I saw the other months with pink/blue fillings! Seriously, the baby squad need to leave inanimate objects alone!
