Hi everyone, I know this is probably a bit early (since it isn't July yet) but I thought I would start a new thread for those who lost their tickets for previous busses and for those who are beginning their bus journey now. Please feel free to add your stats to the list and grab a good seat while you can. Best of luck to everyone TTC and I look forward to getting many BFP's posted on here.

Thanks Kitty that's reassuring - I'll feel no guilt having a g&t (or three) this weekend then Wink

Nordicmom · 26/06/2014 19:08

I think i need a drink to relax ;) but I'll just have some chocolate instead ...

Treaclepie19 · 26/06/2014 19:54

Hi all :) induction eve went well. I was proud of my public speaking!
Treating myself by having chippy tea, Dr pepper and a glass of wine later.

I will read back at some point honest!

Choccywoccydodah · 26/06/2014 20:04

Kitty yes the very same Jan Brosens I'll be seeing tomorrow.
I'm very lucky it seems to live in the next town to Coventry where they are based, people travel from all over to see him and Prof Quenby.

Nordic so sorry that you have been left with the illness you have.
Nk cells testing is one if the things that may crop up tomorrow. I think the test is £360 and they go from there.
My dh is very strongly against me having anything done that we have to start paying for tests etc. and also start taking drugs.
He believes what will be will be, however he can see how much pain I'm going through every month by losing so many pregnancies and I just want a shot at trying anything!
I've heard about steroids being successful but it's also good to hear about your story too. It gives a prospective from both sides which is good to know.
I JUST WANT MY BEAN!!!! :(

Choccywoccydodah · 26/06/2014 20:04

Well done treacle x

Treaclepie19 · 26/06/2014 20:17

Thanks choccy x

I'm so sorry you ladies have been through all this :(

I wish I could offer some words of wisdom x

Rainbow555 · 26/06/2014 20:24

treacle I was going to wish you lots of luck and send confidenc your way ready for your talk...as I hate public speaking too and can totally understand how you feel....but time difference means I now need to send congrats!! Glad it went well enjoy your chippy tea and other treats :)

Treaclepie19 · 26/06/2014 20:25

Hehe aww thanks rainbow :(

Treaclepie19 · 26/06/2014 20:25

*:) I mean. Silly phone.

Nordicmom · 26/06/2014 20:29

Choccy I know the feeling how desperate you are to get the baby especially after so many losses. I felt suicidal and very depressed at times to be honest . I would have done anything and that's why I then did the treatment blindly and not looked into risks more when he told me I'd be fine and that we were being careful etc . I had doubts and I should have listened to them . Steroids are serious drugs and they can have bad side affects . If you ever consider taking them to prevent miscarriages please first read about my illness secondary adrenal insufficiency. My life has been ruined for ever and there are many ways to have a child .
Here I am myself again trying to have another one and it's not working out so I can sympathise . I really wish you the best of luck and hopefully the doctors can help you , hugs :)!

laurano81 · 26/06/2014 20:31

Hi Ladies I am alive & well Smile! The pain meds are knocking me for six, so I have been feeling exhausted of late! Busy time for me also with my ELT. Tomorrow is Friday! YAY for that! Can't wait to Zzzzz Sat morn! I am on CD10 today! Yay! Managed to DTD twice already! So let's hope DH keeps up the good work! Grin! x My temp went up this morning .26°C, strange for CD10, but will have to see what it is in the morning. I am still taking Agnus Cactus, and I have acupuncture tomorrow! So it will be interesting to see when I ovulate this month! My OPK's still haven't arrived! Hmm Fx they will arrive tomorrow! I have just sat down with a cuppa Brew, so I will read back through the post! x I hope everyone is well x

MrsGingerbread · 26/06/2014 20:44

Hello! Latest hcg figure due tomorrow morning.

Last week it was 47, so I have got my fingers crossed for anything significantly lower than that... surely a week of pretty heavy bleeding should have reduced it

I hope so... so keen to start again. :(

Treaclepie19 · 26/06/2014 20:45

Laura glad you're ok!!
Mrsgingerbread, sorry you're having such a rough time :(

MrsGingerbread · 26/06/2014 20:49

Just having a read back...

laura glad you are recovering, sorry the pills are knocking you out. Sounds like a really nasty accident.

Choccy hope that all goes really well for you tomorrow.

treacle well done on your public speaking. Sounds like your treat is well deserved. :)

mrse so sorry to hear about your health problems, referral sounds positive. Have I missed any new photos of your furbabies?

Welcome newbies! :)

Aprilray · 26/06/2014 20:52

Evening ladies - just popped on before Masterchef (love it)

Welcome Sunshine and MaMaPo

Rainbow don't beat yourself up re the ibruprofen. My GP said to carry on as normal until you get your BFP.

Brixtonbunny see above Smile I cut back a bit after AF leaves but have friends who have drunk as usual up until BFP and have had perfectly healthy pregnancies and babies. Enjoy the hen weekend!

GrandHighWitch some very promising symptoms there.

Choccy hope your appointment goes well tomorrow.

Laurano enjoy your acupuncture tomorrow- have my second session on Tuesday and really looking forward to it - will be CD21 and hopefully 3DPOish.

Aprilray · 26/06/2014 20:59

I am such a narna. I am mid cycle so have to start taking the Chinese herbs my acupuncturist gave me...I followed the instructions carefully and soaked the herbs (which look like pot pourri) before boiling them. On autopilot I then drained them over the sink failing to keep the liquid I am supposed to retain to drink! Grr - managed the second time and all I can say is this better help me get my BFP - they taste and smell vile. At the moment it is sip of yucky herbs, bite of chocolate, sip of yucky herbs, bite of chocolate, sip of yucky herbs, bite of chocolate, bite of chocolate, bite of chocolate!

notoasthere · 26/06/2014 21:08

treacle well done on the public speaking!

laura hope your on the mend and the meds don't make you too knackered for dtd

nordic so sorry to read about your situation

april eeh gads, least the chocolate will taste nice!

Treaclepie19 · 26/06/2014 21:15

Thank you!!

I think I may ovulate soon. I feel so sick and have an upset stomach.
Fingers crossed haha. Really hoping the miscarriage reset my luteal phase to a normal-ish length.
Yeah right.
