[funkymonk]

The smallprint - Berries have a strict entrance criteria (TTC #1, over 30, TTC for 3+months, NO instadiffers, must have a special pot) and def no mention of baby dust or baby dancing UGH !!! Ooh we are strict...please note your house may be at risk if you do not keep up repayments lol

Evening ladies,

So I spent an hour after work talking to my TA who I was talking to about TTCing after she lost a pg at 20 weeks.
Turns out she had her BFP two weeks ago!
Poor thing though is just terrified that history will repeat itself.
She felt bad that she was feeling so unhappy to be pg knowing what I am going through.
Still we had a rant about how TTCing.

yorkie tee hee well they do have cards for everything else! I bought a congrats on your vasectomy card for my mate

Nice to rant pip your TA must be so scared

yorkie I'd send you one haha!

Belated hello to feather. Boo to the fertility nurse ruling out pg. Did she say why??

I'm having not so much the two weeks of torture as the two weeks of irritability beforehand as I want to get on with it already. But I can have wine, which is nice......

Quiet in here. Where's everyone in their cycle? I'm not trying to find out who is potentially next to pimp. Oh no, not at all

hi Merk!!

CD21 here, Ov'd CD18 AF due CD 28-29
Trying to to let it consume my every waking moment!

Ok then Merk a question for you (and anyone else). I have no idea when to expect AF but thought it might be worth starting temping again? Do you think I'd still get a temp rise as if it were a 'normal' cycle? I've reset FF with CD1 as my first day of mc bleeding.
Would anyone care to share some speculation on this?! I had ewcm for 3 or 4 days last week but my temp this morning was comfortably below my normal cover line.

Very quiet in here

Barking if you O you'll get a temp rise, its caused by the progesterone, and provided your pre O temps are below normal cover line (as you said) it would seem your progesterone levels are back to normal. Did you decide what to do about your clomid after all?

Is the next thread going to be the Palace of Your Child one??

I'm CD4 here so aaaaaages away

But - DH new meds start this month - smaller doses of Cialis, which is a viagralike. This may mean the side effects are diminished so we could dtd more often. Yay normalpeoplesex!

FX for the new meds RP. If they work would you know immediately so to speak?

Merk I am going to start taking the clomid on my first day of definite bleeding (unless for the first time ever that happens to be cd1!) I think it's the safest option.

Lol yes RP I think it has to be!

Yay for normal people sex!

Told my boss today, didn't cry YAY (well I did get a tad teary). He was great about it all, very understanding and gave me a big hug

CD7 here, last clomid tablet was last night. During the 5day course I had a stitch-like pain in my ovaries (mostly right one) but today it's eased up, but I'm phenomenally tired. Kind of wondering if this is a sign to come, if we do have to head to IVF, cause I can't imagine the drug protocol is less daunting

Excellent news on the new meds RP, fx it makes life easier!

barking sounds encouraging about your temp; how does it look compared to past charts? I've fallen off the temping bandwagon bigtime; keep having broken nights' sleep and haven't managed to get & stay asleep for 4 hours before normal wake up time.

bunny that was brave! I didn't tell my boss I was having iui, I just said I had a lot of hospital appointments and I'd work extra to cover them. Know you'llp need recovery time though. Will you take time of as sick or annual leave for your ivf?

hey kitty my mind hasn't been on my work lately and I've been so emotional at work I thought I should tell him, plus with taking time off I thought I should warn him. We get on really well and he is like a friend.

Not sure what to do, maybe take 1 days holiday and then see if she will sign me off. How long is recovery time?

All aboard the sausage express, leaving now!
