Come on Eros! Shoot your --man fat-- arrow through the heart of this February bus and give us our babbies!

Do you love being elbow deep in your cervix? Can you tell your cream from your egg? No, we're not talking Cadbury, we're talking vadge juice. Come and join the fingering fillies on our flight of fecundity (see what I did there?).

Victoria don't be so silly!! This is great news I'm really pleased for you !!

Here's a laugh girls.. What the hell is this potty!

If it's full flow by tonight then count it. I would say anything that requires a pad or tampon is AF. Did they tell you what to do with the pots on cd1 if you miss morning wee, just wrote it up as cd1 on diary and pot without wee in it. A potty?!? Really! How odd! Can't wait to get my stuff! Have had my email today saying its on its way .

OH recons we won't need it as he says his swimmers will be as ace as he is . But we only managed to DTD Sat, Sun, Mon, Tues, (then gave up a bit) then dtd and ov'd on Friday so not got much hope this cycle.

Aww does that slot into the loo? That's handy. But seeing as I can see in those tiny vials the Dr gives you you I'm sure I could have managed a pot. At least that would have been sterile and easy to "dip" into.

Thanks mummy I'm getting nothing only when I wipe and sometimes at toilet. Nothing on pad. Such a weird one! Agreed I can manage the pots so not sure about potty! Be prepared for a huge box of supplies! I thought if be a wee packet! The instruction manual is a 14 page long document!

So sorry sparkly but good luck with your brand new potty, you'll be a big girl yet!

victoria glad things are better!

I can't decide whether to go get my post-ovulation mcdonald's like I have done on my previous insems.

I thought the same when I got mine sparkly! Does anyone actually use those things?!

Victoria, I am so glad things are going well for you.

Boris, thank you for the B6 info. I have just had my first lot.

I'll be out at work so neighbour will have to take it in. 14 pages? I do enough reading at work. Guess I'll have to read it incase they call and quiz me on it. Do you have a section of fridge ready to store your 14 pots?

14 pages....sweet baby jesus...still if it gets me a BFP I would quite happily sit and read War and Peace.

I think I may have to demote the veg to the bottom shelf and store me piss pots in the veg compartment.

ooh I really hope I get my stuff beginning of next week then I can start pissing on sticks again. Missed pissing on sticks! -yes I know I am weird-

Yep 14 pages!!! Has anyone here used the dual hormone clearblue digi before??? Also- there's 20 sticks in the box, I've looked at instructions but it doesn't say when to start using them does anyone in trial know if you just start using them as normally would??

Not enjoying the look of the toxic crystal in the urine pot..!!! Ha

Purdey are you ok? You have never been so silent! Hope you are feeling ok

boris thanks for B6 update. Glad it's helping you! I have yet to see if my b-complex is having any effect. I'm only taking 50mgs though.

I got told there would be direction in the box to say when to start. They told me if I'm due to ov on day 16 then I should start on day 7. Hope that helps?

The annoying / odd thing for me about the vit b 6 is that it's not this time helping my bruising.
DH says we can't drs tonight (sick) or tomorrow (pancake party) so it looks like I'm out for March too. Damn. Gah.

Sparkly I've used the duel hormone clear blue test. It's quite good really. You get flashy smiley faces for high fertility days (not sure what hormone this measures) and the a solid smiley for your LH surge. Xx

sparkly I read on an old thread that some girls started on CD8 - some CD10 depending on their cycle length.

Considering my temps I say I OV on CD 18-21....I might have a bit of a wait... or do the whole 20 in one cycle!? Confused already.

If it helps I usually ov 14/15 and would start the test day 10. X

CB have different instructions though for the purpose of the trial and that's why they have sent 20 sticks. I would give them a call of you don't find a list of dates in there Sparklypants

Have just been thwarted in my efforts to buy hpts By bus showing up before I could get into Tesco. Prob for the best as only 10 dpo.

Aw sparkles. Crap balls. Posted a link to healthy pancake recipe for you if that helps cheer you up? I've had them. They're not bad. But I will be going traditional tomorrow. Bought 7 lemons in ready. X

Oh oops! Ignore me then! Lol. X

I've got a spare unopened tub of vit b6 that I ordered in error. It's free to anyone who wants it, just cover postage. Send me a PM if you're interested.

Sammylou they are free at the end of the day! May as well pee away!

Just popping on quickly, been slaving away in the kitchen all day cooking for my family who came to supper (Ooo, 'supper'! I'll be on t'dop deck before you know it).

Just want to say I'm praying about tomorrow Sparkly. Take your charts, tell him about the black blood this month, the terrible pain every cycle and that you are struggling emotionally with the thought that you can't have a baby. Try to cry. Women don't cry enough in consult surgeries and they leave not having been taken notice of. I always snot all over the cons and I've never left empty handed. Decide for yourself, right now, what you want most out of tomorrow's appointment and then lead the discussion. Write notes down on a pad and make sure you take the pad out and rest it on his table, just out of his eye line.

If he tries taking you away down a blind alley of rhetoric then keep leading him back: you want the spotting sorted out (you know for a fact your uterine lining should not be shedding so prematurely each month. What is he going to do about it? Progesterone suppositories? Make the suggestion.

Please don't leave until you have got absolutely everything off your chest. He is paid a lot of money to listen to your concerns

Sorry for name-change skulduggery
