Forums New posts
I think The Scottish NHS seem to be supporting infertility really well! They have just announced that they are offering 3 rounds of ivf now!

As you can guess af got me :(
Finished yesterday so I'm now onto the waiting game! I have some ovulation tests as well as my clear blue monitor so going to do a comparison this month and see if they say the same thing! ....// ready for the million questions as I completely confuse myself?

A friend of mine said she wanted to try for a baby once her and her partner got engaged, they got engaged the week before xmas, and here they are just had the 3 month scan!!! If only it was that easy for the rest of us :(

Over 17 months now we have been trying!!

At least I know my bf is 110% with me :)
He came in and told me he heard on the radio about being able to get 3 rounds of ivf! Which made me smile. Makes me feel I'm not alone in this craziness
 
Just come off the phone from the dr,she is referring me on to see the specialist. But it's could take up to 12 weeks!!!!!
F**k sake ....... :(
 
Aw laura thats really sad about your cousin losing two babies in 5 months.

Lucy isnt it typical! You're obviously delighted for your friend but its tough hearing that they got pregnant so easily isnt it. I feel that everyone I know is pregnant at the moment, I have two close friends due in a couple of weeks - both first babies, will be an exciting time in my group of friends.

I heard about Scotland doing 3 rounds of IVF, thats fab. And awesome that your partner mentioned he heard it on the radio. Always makes you feel so much better when you know they are supporting you.
I said to my husband this morning that I feel a bit blah and think im out this month (AF due Monday) and he said to me he believes that next month is our month. He's never said anything like that before so maybe he's right?! Hopefully!

Happy to hear you're being referred to the specialist thats great to hear. But 12 weeks is a bit discouraging isnt it :( As a general rule, in the NHS they have to see you within 18 weeks from referral to appointment, hopefully it will be sooner for you. I think my first appointment was around August last year and im still waiting for my follow up after my lap. I hope Scotland is much faster than London!!
 
Can you remember how long it took from the referral to when you got the first appointment ??

Is there anything else we can try that we currently aren't doing? Any ideas? Did you use pressed again?
 
The first appointment was quite quick, I think within a month.
Thats when they go through all your history and prepare you for all the blood tests.
You'll get a set of bloods done on set days, so you'll need to go on CD2-5 then around the middle of the month and so on.
I was quite lucky as the timing of my appointment coincided well with the first set of bloods so I wasnt delayed in that respect.

The thing that took the longest was finding the date for my laparoscopy and hysteroscopy, I had to wait a good 3 months for that and my follow up appointment is 7 weeks post op. Still another 2 weeks away.

Frustrating!

I would also like some suggestions on doing things differently.... We have been using preseed but it ran out annoyingly this month so will buy some more. Using the soft cups as i've read good things (hasnt worked so far!) I even tried eating Brazil nuts and pineapple... nothing has worked! Its a total science !!
 
Hey Ladies,
Well AF arrived on time today... of course she did!
To be honest, I am relieved. I NEVER thought i'd say that.
I got a new job last week so I would not have been in the good books if I turned up for my first day after Easter and said I was pregnant.
This job is like my dream job so im really happy - I think that offsets the fact that AF is here as I really dont mind this month.
I get one more April chance as next AF is due on 29th.
I dont know what to do going forward... just keep trying and then break the news to work or leave it a month or two then start trying again.
I have my gynae appointment on the 13th so i'll get some feedback from my operation and maybe judge it from what she says.

Lucy - hope you get that peak soon!!
 
How are you ladies?

AF has buggered off now, CD5 for me, should ovulate end of next week / over easter.

Any plans for the Easter break?
 
Hi ladies i am 7dpo today. Getting to that impatient part of my cycle where the crazy tester in me wants to poas lol. I am trying to not be stupid though and wait a few days xx
 
We are decorating our bedroom over easter. How about u? X
 
Feeling bummed this month! Got my peak on thurs / fri, but didn't manage to bd, chance of conception is next to nothing! :(
Fingers crossed for you guys!
Just figured out next month I should ovulate when on holiday, which is a bummer as we are sharing a family room with some one else :( so not much chance next month either .

Nothing planned over Easter yet, don't know if bf will get the long weekend or not yet
 
Ah no Lucy that doesnt sound good for your chances this month or next month :( It only takes once, maybe you'll be able to get a quick one in ;)

Your partner works for his family doesn't he? Hope he gets a couple of days off to hang out with you.

Laura - im with you! im going to be decorating a fair bit too. We still have alot to do on the house so need to get into the garden and I want to paint more of the stairs, they are such a pain in the arse to paint! I can only do it in small doses before I go crazy ha. Other than that, we will catch up with some friends for a pub lunch prob. One of my best friends got engaged over the weekend so have drinks with the girls Thurs evening which will be nice.

I have my gynae appointment on Thurs, the follow up from my Lap/Hysteroscopy so i'll find out what the next step is...

Im in two minds with starting my new job next week... shall I give TTC a break for a couple of months or keep trying? Chances are i'll still be in the same position in a few months anyway!
 
Hi ladies. Im waiting for af this weekend. Ive done some early testing today and yesterday. Either evil evap lines or a faint positive barely thete. But this happens alot with these online tests.

I know how u feel with trying to dtd. Its hard work and im usually shattered and not feeling it because my toddler is in the house so it has to be late at night. I will never learn my lesson to miss my period first xx

Londonkiwi I hope your appointment went well!!

Laura! OMG!!! So excited for you !!

Af due in 1 week and have my usual sore boobs and sooo hungry so can count me out again !

I've ordered a thermometer to try and see if that helps to give a better reading of when I ovulate
 
Weirdly i only ever have fallen
Pregnant if we dtd on cd 13 ive realised no other day has resulted in pregnancy.

I really hope it happens for you soon. It could be worth a try hun. Did u say you are taking all the vitamins etc xx
 
OMG Laura - this is amazing news, congratulations!!
I guess you wont be decorating the bedroom now ;)

Right im totally BD'ing on CD13 now!! Thats tomorrow for me.

Had my appointment on Thursday. The first lady i saw said that she will refer us for IVF but needed the head consultant to sign it off. She wasnt keen to go down that route just yet. She said that after a lap you're much more fertile so she suspects that i'll get pregnant naturally in the coming months. They booked me an appointment for early November if not... That seems forever away but guess i'll just keep trying.

Now im in a bit of a predicament! I went for drinks with friends last night and was asked to be bridesmaid for one of them next June. which is lovely! The wedding is in California and is kid-friendly.... so if i get pregnant in the coming months thats great as can take baby with us but if I dont get pregnant soon i'll have to give TTC a rest for a few months as I will only be able to fly up to a certain point. So i think if it doesnt happen in next 3 cycles then we might skip trying until the IVF referral... have a bit to think about!

I've got a thermometer too Lucy but gave up using it as Im quite a bad sleeper so I think my readings were a bit off. Hopefully it suits you better than me!

Have a lovely weekend girls
