I've been offline for a week and just caught up, what a lot has happened, have been thinking of all you girls. Glad you had good hols Lauren. Hope you're ok, you sound like you are having a tough time of things but information is power and you are a strong lady who is coping very admirably-good luck tomorrow and let us know how you get on. And I think it is really great you are continuing with your acupuncture if it relaxes you and can help endo if that's what it is. My acupuncture sessions have been going really well and I also find it very therapeutic running through everything each week-the poor guy!
Sashimi, glad you are feeling a bit better. I loved the blow up shark story-thanks for the reminder about everything happening when it should and your child will be just as special as your little niece. You sound like a lean mean gym fighting machine too-inspiration to me certainly after pigging out on hols! I hope your AF symptoms are going away, you must be so looking forward to your break.
Sleepy, sorry about AF
hope you're ok, know what you mean about needing to get your head in the right place once you get the horrid witch. Am looking ahead to March 2013 babies now-it is funny how you dare to hope every cycle and feel like a fool at the end but we have to hope.
Country and lxb, so glad you're both still on here and so funny about your anniversaries! I hope you are doing really well, such exciting times for you both.
Pino, great news about your papers. Not sure what's going on with your AF, any more signs? I can't remember my period changing when I started taking pills but I've started to have very different periods month to month since starting acupuncture. And go you on the fitness videos-I went through a phase of doing them and found them really good! Especially when I used dumb bells-ouch!
I've been on holiday for a week, we had a great time, spent the first half with my family and then went off for a few days on our own, has been so nice to relax on the beach, play tennis, swim and enjoy lot of nice food and good art galleries. Holidays aren't quite over either as off to a wedding abroad over the weekend. It has been so nice to take a break and I really feel like I have stolen my life back from TTC. It has certainly made me think about lots of other things which is good. I have also realised how much of my energy is going on it and I am keen to pick up old hobbies, start new ones and move forward in my job-I think I have taken my foot off the pedal a bit as TTC has felt a bit all consuming and I think that in turn has put more pressure on when it comes to nothing each month.
I got some news today-my CD3 blood tests were all clear which I am pleased about. Am going in for my second round of tests on CD21 which is next Friday-these are the ones I am more worried about because I suspect I have low progesterone. Or if not that, I worry that I will be unexplained fertility as docs said you were Pino. Also bit surprised not to have O'ed yet this month-I am normally very regular and O on day 14 and have high OPK reading for few days before. I am already on CD14 and nothing-we shall see!
Hi Hormonal and welcome! We are all very much in the same boat on here. This is my 11th cycle and I am 30 (fast approaching 31!).
Treasured, we are eagerly awaiting news!!
Nice to hear from you all and hope you are all looking forward to the weekend!
