Stealth, I am so jealous of your skiing weekend – and I love that you were so relaxed your forgot about testing! (Though did you end up taking more than one test with you after all?!) Fx for Monday, but it’s great that you are not feeling too anxious. Hope you’ve been enjoying fondue and vino. Good way of recovering from the babybomb.
Village, let us know what you find out about the aspirin! And I’m really pleased for you that your DP isn’t having to fly to Barbados after all just yet.
Isit, thanks lovely, keeping on plodding on is definitely what it’s about.
Dunlin, well done on the weight loss and hooray for your clomid prescription. Are you starting very soon? What kind of monitoring will they do?
Ellewalk, hooray for your clear tubes – excellent stuff . Is clomid next?
Rosebud, don’t lose heart! Did the cramping come back? Good luck for your test tomorrow! It’s such fantastic news about having 5 frosties too. And thanks for your comforting words when I was getting stressed last week. Sorry to hear you had a panic attack but I’m glad your DH was there to mop your brow!
Lucinda, congratulations! That’s great news and I hope everything goes smoothly for you.
CwtchyQ, sorry to hear you were ill but I’m sure all the EODing means you gave it a really good go this month and are in with a good shot. I can imagine how frustrating it was though.
Nurse, I hope you’ve been having a lovely holiday and that’s a distraction from all this TTC business.
Oranges, I agree with the others – I really hope you can get scans and an increased dose if necessary. My clinic was going to give me clomid (before my tubes were confirmed as being blocked) and said I would have to have scans that I was going to have to pay for (which is a bit odd – if they are felt necessary by the clinic, why aren’t they covered by the NHS if they are going to prescribe the drug? Anyway I didn’t get a chance to query it as it became clear I’d need to go down the IVF route).
Trying, I hope some of the tips upthread help with the spots. Try not to let it get you down.
Ain, definitely no such thing as oversharing. Please don’t beat yourself up about the past. I reckon there are so many different things we can all throw at ourselves from our past but at the end of the day a lot of it just comes down to luck. And time. 
Pebbles, thanks for the words of reassurance my dear.
Chandelier, yay for hearing the heartbeat!
I am now officially an IVFer – I had the baseline scan yesterday and then started my injections (menopur, not gonal-f as I was originally told) last night. It was a bit stressful but we got there in the end! And I was very thirsty during the night, but I doubt it could be an effect of the menopur after just a single, low dose. Excited to be getting started, but not sure I’ll be one of those people who just takes the injections in her strides and carries on with normal life as usual – I think I’ll be trying to get home in time for each of them!
