Thanks all. I won't be convinced until I have a darker line or something on a digi but I'm not cracking the digi open just yet... Will keep you all posted

sorry I've been mia girls.

m33r that is fantastic news! so so pleased for you.take each day as it comes. don't worry about darkness, a line is a line!

Vic I had an awful feeling this was going to happen again when u said still no appt the other day. I'd go in there in Monday and refuse to leave until I had the referral letter in my hand to post myself. then I'd hand deliver it to the clinic. but that's just me! I'm not surprised your blood is boiling. definitely complain at the highest level, smd definitely chase daily!

feeling deflated here even tho its a new month post hsg and only cd8. hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.

m33r · 13/07/2014 00:41

Hang in there lil. Hopefully the 'flush' will work. Try to think that this month you chances are increased...

No surprises I'm awake... Having AF cramps but have googled (for last three hours!!) and that seems quite normal. Wish it was the morning so I could test again. Also wish I'd got a first response...

Welcome ela!

Congrats m33r! Am really pleased for you! Gives me hope that it might actually happen for me one day! Hopefully sooner rather than later! Xxx

Nonconformist34 · 13/07/2014 20:34

Congrats m33r, so pleased for you and your partner. It must be so surreal when you've waited for so long? Brilliant to have some great news on here!

I've been MIA for a bit but keep popping in to see how everyone is doing!Completely missed my ovulation this month I think (forgot to check the calendar!) and only managed to dtd on the day/day after so really pissed off with myself. We have out first fertility appt at the hospital in 3 weeks so will keep you posted.

maybug3 · 13/07/2014 21:16

Congratulations m33r.
It really is great to have some good news on this thread and remind us all that it will eventually happen. Enjoy every minute. X

Lauraqc · 13/07/2014 22:01

Yay m33r - so so pleased for you! At last! Amazing news! xxx

Victoria - one of my pet hates are people who have a job, and don't do it!! So frustrating feels like leaving all your world in their hands and that they couldn't really give a crap :(

Well - since the +ve ov tests (2 days running then fading so def no fluke) I've had pains daily on my right side - can't figure if it's constipation or something else, and really sensitive nipples and hoo-ha (soz TMI!)...also I'd been having spots on my chin loads and they've all cleared up and had no others! I've now got to wait it out til at least Friday to do a test I'm practically driving myself to distraction! Do I feel different? Am I just symptom-spotting? ARGGGHHHHH!!!!

Jessewalt · 14/07/2014 11:38

Congrats m33r x

m33r · 14/07/2014 12:55

Thanks everyone. Still getting AF symptoms and still not late but 15dpo today and multiple positive tests... Keep everything crossed. Xx

Fingers crossed Laura. X

My'day 21' retest has shown even lower levels than last time so waiting to see what the gp says. Everything just takes so long. Dh having a blood test this week and 2nd sa next week so until those are results are in gp won't make the fertility referral. Driving me mad!

lildottie · 14/07/2014 17:59

maybug they should be able to refer based on ur results and do dhs whilst u wait for appt. I'd push hard! what bloods is ur dh having? my dh has only done sa's and I'm hoping they will do more tests on him but no idea what so don't know what to ask about/demand!

maybug3 · 14/07/2014 18:44

He was told because the count was so low they had to check there were no underlying conditions causing it. Not sure specifically what they are looking for.
You're right I think I do need to push on the referral now. I've already had more tests than most before the referral and I just hate how slow it all is.
Thanks Lil

lildottie · 14/07/2014 20:02

its hard may cos u start off feeling u don't want to be too forward in case they don't take u seriously but u don't want to get walked over! I think if uve got results showing there is an issue its time they sent u to the specialists! poor Vic's experience shows u have to keep on top of them. any news today Vic?

victoria401 · 14/07/2014 22:21

Called the docs today, apparently GP applied for funding and they were waiting for a reply. However, we got a letter from the funding people, well a copy of a letter sent to GP. The GP never got his copy. Dated June 17th. So we had to photocopy our letter and take it to the docs, they are now going to find another GP to refer us as our GP is on his hols. Here we go again, back to the start!

Fingers crossed Laura and good luck trying to get docs to refer you may. I've no idea what qualifies as enough now I've been through this crap. Its not easy!

lildottie · 15/07/2014 07:56

Vic I'm so sorry you are having this added stress at an already stressful time. are you going to complain? like I said, I'd be stood in there until the referral letter was done! you need to be pushy with these bastards now and fight for what u deserve and are entitled to. Thanks

Lauraqc · 15/07/2014 08:31

Good god. Just googled 'dry mouth and ovulation' to find it can be a very early pg symptom. News to me! Definitely symptom spotting now for another 10 days!

Victoria - argh. Just argh. I feel for you x

Metalhead · 15/07/2014 09:22

Ha, that's a new one on me too Laura! I think I'll join you in symptom spotting, I should ov today and have thrown everything at it this month (Conceive Plus, pillow under bum, sex eod...).

That is just shit Victoria. You'd think in this day and age with email, fax etc there would be no need for things to get lost en route! I hope you get a referral quickly now.

victoria401 · 15/07/2014 10:17

I put a covering letter in with the copy of that other letter saying to call me if referral was going through or if there were more problems. I will call the docs again on my afternoon teabreak to make sure somethings been done with it. I'm not sure who I complain to though :-(

When are you due af/bfp Laura, metal, blueberry and anyone else currently symptom spotting?

How long did it take to get your referral non?

xBlueberry88x · 15/07/2014 13:54

Victoria AF due on Thursday.

I have little bit of a red tinge when I wipe today and some cramping, plus dizzy and my boobs have hurt for a week.

I hope AF isnt coming early!!

Metalhead · 15/07/2014 14:19

Fx for you blueberry that it is implantation bleed!

I think I only ov'd today so got to wait until the end of the month...

Lauraqc · 15/07/2014 18:05

Good thinking Victoria - hope all goes smoothly this time!

I have no idea when af due as haven't had it since December! Bought a first response test on way home but dunno when to take it - have a feeling DH may have to strap me down not to give it a go tonight!! Dry mouth still here, no metal taste but tongue tingling. Knowing my luck it's onset of diabetes or something totally unrelated but I can live with small hope for a bit longer...

FX Blueberry!!

m33r · 15/07/2014 18:58

Hi laura. Don't want to get your hopes up but two mornings I woke up and my mouth was soooooo dry. Was about 11/12dpo. Got my BFP 13dpo although it was feint. Good luck!
