hair sorry, my post was badly worded! I don't temp so not sure when I ovulate, but I tend to get a headache and tiredness the day after a peak (static) smiley on my CB digital.

I am jealous that the men folk need not worry about ovulation timing/temping/AF etc!

sparkly keep being strong, you're a shining (sparkly) example to the rest of us! SmileFlowers

purdiepie · 14/04/2015 21:23

melon! Smashing news about AF! Can you confirm your US was done AFTER your mc? Sorry!

MelonMelon · 14/04/2015 21:24

Yes it was done 3 months after MC Purdie

Purplecuddlykoala14 · 14/04/2015 21:24

chops what a fab birthday present x
purdie don't know why these people are targeting you, totally uncalled for.
Good luck lucie
sparkly hope you're ok x my GP said the same when I said I was concerned about short cycles not being able to sustain a pregnancy - he said they used to think low progesterone could cause problems but now they don't . Not very helpful.
Been suffering with a cold so when I took my temp this morning CD 9 it was 36.98 so will be interesting to see what ff makes of that.

Rainy34 · 14/04/2015 21:29

sparkly just take it easy, I am feeling better about my appointment, I spoke to a good friend today, only known her for just over a year but we are able to tell each other anything . She has recently given birth and has lots of complications trying to get and stay pregnant . I told her about the fertility referral and how I was emotional last night. She told me it is emotional but it could be the path that leads me to getting pregnant . I'm also in the past year or so really emotional over nothing, wonder if that's another side effect from my shitty hormones. Sorry I have rambled on

DaisyDuckSW15 · 14/04/2015 21:30

Oh my gosh, purdie, just catching up. That PM is awful. What a horrible thing to send. People can be so nasty on the internet and say things they wouldn't dream of saying to anyone in person.

Can't catch up properly today. I'm knackered from school and a timetable change is messing up my routines so I'm exhausted after only two days!

purdiepie · 14/04/2015 21:31

purple, it's clear to me that my tight vagina, pert post-pregnancy tits and superior intellect are like a giant magnet for vacuous green-eyed bints

purdiepie · 14/04/2015 21:33

Melon I've changed my mind about you: I think it's just a matter of time. But you can shorten the wait by charting your temps to ensure better-timed and plentiful sex.

Why thank you Purdie Do I get a badge now?! We shall see what the next few days/weeks brings. Thanks for the advice, I'm not going to temp though unless I'm still here in 6 months! I'm such an anxious person I don't want to add any more, no OPKS this month either!

eskimolaura · 14/04/2015 21:39

Purdie love- WTF?! Unhinged is certainly the right word. How very peculiar that someone feels the need to send a poisonous private message? In the same breath, how lucky that she sent it to you, and that you are secure and confident enough in yourself to simply ignore it and recognise that she is clearly not 'firing on all cylinders' Flowers

Nomio Have you got an appointment coming up soon?

And who is it with the scan at the weekend? Good luck!

Melon Really hope this is it for you! Flowers

Sparkly How are you my lovely? All of your medical advice sounds conflicting and confusing. I hope you are bearing up ok.

Lucie Best of luck!

I am on a downer again. Have two more days of the prog pill to take. It seems to be dragging on. I feel bad for mentioning it, as people are definitely putting my problems into perspective tonight, but I just wish my cycle would do something. At the moment, I don't know where I am or what's going on. I just want a small window of opportunity every month where DH and I can have a shot at getting preggers. Is that too much to ask? Stopped the pill in November and apart from the withdrawal bleed then and the Norethisterone in January, I've had nothing. Because of that bleed in Jan, MyDays is saying I'm on CD81, but I can't use that, as, as far as I'm concerned I haven't had a 'real' period for about 16 years! Sorry for the rant. I will be more positive tomorrow. Just needed a moan.

Also, I had my U/S on the 1st April and haven't heard anything from the consultant. Should I have heard anything? I am on the waiting list for the HSG and FX if everything goes well and I have a bleed next week, I will call them and get that booked for CD7/10. Should I wait until I've had that to pester them and the U/S? Hmm

frogbubbles · 14/04/2015 21:39

Evening lovelies, just got home from the cinema, been with friend to see Cinderella, I might have cried a little bit I cried lots tears and snot falling In my popcorn

Aww Chops will miss you on here

Melon thank goodness it has shown up so you can move forward, 11 days!! What a wait you have had my lovely

Night that's really sad, I really understand how dementia affects family members. My nanna has it too. Is she ok? Thinking that must have been scary for her x

Purdie that wasn't a very nice message to get, I hoped all that was done with now. Sending hugs

Riceicle1 · 14/04/2015 21:40

purds I can't believe the smug, spitefulness of someone who should be enjoying their own happiness. I'm glad you reported her. Oh and I hope the footie doesn't delay your love juice too much longer!
sparkly crossing everything for positive news for you tomorrow
chops ammmmaaazzzzziiinggg news Smile
night Flowers sorry about your grandma

eskimolaura · 14/04/2015 21:45

Almost forgot Chops Don't leave us! You have a wealth of fertility knowledge and experience that people on here will find invaluable, plus, we would miss you. Stick around- you're more than welcome. I think that the thing that people can't bear is a discussion of pregnancy symptoms and comments, but you totally get that, right? And if you aren't ready to leave us yet, then you shouldn't have to. Flowers You have the next nine months to find an AN thread when you feel happy and more confident to do so. Grin

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 21:45

Lucie I'm so excited for you .. Purdie has painted a wonderful picture of IVF experience abroad! I so so hope everything is just as magical for you. Baby time my lovely! Positive thoughts to you! Flowers

Purds hope your sample is on route to you!! Hello OV ! I remember you telling us about the embryoscope and now it's not always used everywhere. I noticed today when looking at private clinics here that one of them uses it. Which I thought was pretty good for Scotland! Ha

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 21:47

Ha ha Woollywonder thank you but honestly. I think I'm tearing my hair out a bit now.. Tomor is going to be interesting!Hmm... Unfortunately illogical pangs of hope are creeping in and stupid googling of "heaving bleeding after BFP" I need one of those TWW slaps !!!

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 21:49

purple so confusing eh?! Make up your minds! Sorry you are lot feeling so well hope you are better soon Flowers

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 21:50

Rainy exactly. Your friend is so right. You are on the path lovely!! Maybe it is hormones but it could also be the emotional strain of TTC month after month. Don't give yourself a hard time, you are gonna get there! And all this will be a distant memory when you are sitting there with your newborn! Promise! Flowers

HeirToTheIronThrone · 14/04/2015 21:51

I am only popping in to tell Purdie that you MUST buy those amazing pants gavel

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 21:54

Thanks Rice it's Thursday morning now so another day to wait..Confused

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 21:54

Heir Flowers

purdiepie · 14/04/2015 21:59

Aaaaargh! Melons I didn't mean to patronise you. I'm sorry. I just think that, with cycles currently ranging from 27-39 days, you could minimise the stress by charting. If you love sex and have no need to focus it around ov then once you don't need to chart unless you like to know when your period is coming Wink

No jizz delivered yet. I checked my cervix before and it felt rather firm and not high. How soon after an egg is released does the cervix shut up shop?

Eskimo I love you. Now jack that silly 'job' thingy in and come back here full time. And stop going to forrin weddings.

Sparkly123 · 14/04/2015 21:59

Eskimo I know you must be so frustrated. You really are doing such a good job of keeping it together. Now listen, you are on the home stretch to answers now. Things are moving. You must must keep strong and positive, it will be so hard but I know you can do it! Once this pill is over you will get your bleed, and your HSG and the scan is done and dusted so you are gonna have a lot of new information- whether it's ruling things out or not, these are all big steps forward after waiting so long. You can do this! I would say what with easter hols etc that your result for scan would take a bit longer.. Which I know is hard. Just focus on one bit at a time, get through this next couple days,hopefully this bleed will happen and you will get your HSG. And then you will have information!! Glorious information that is going to get you closer to your baba. We are all here, anytime you feel low vent to us and we will try and pull you up again. Remember- you may not be where you want to be as yet but you are definitely further forward than you were before.Flowers

purdiepie · 14/04/2015 22:02

heir, how do you know about my penchant for smashing a gavel? You like dem pants? Are they not a bit Bangladeshi bandwagon?

purdiepie · 14/04/2015 22:02

...or would that be a rickshaw?
