Oh really, the way my doctor was speaking I thought they were almost like slimming pills!

Bethany - I'd be frustrated about not getting the provera too! I don't know why they wouldn't prescribe it! I hope you are doing well with the increased dose of Metformin.

Raven - I hope things are going well with you.

Katya - Have fun at the gym! I hope your progesterone test goes well!

NewMrs - My longest cycle was 117 days and I have no doubt I wouldn't have gotten AF without provera. I know it's frustrating, just keep up the good work with your weight loss.

Bex - I'm sorry about the carpal tunnel, that must be uncomfortable. I hope you are feeling well otherwise.

Rachel - I am so sorry about your friend. That is my worst fear. She must be devastated. My only hope is that she can get pregnant again quickly and then maybe the void won't be quite so big. Ugh, it breaks my heart that anyone has to go through that.

NewMrs, I think this last cycle before my current one was around 140 daysI know it's so frustrating. Now, I'm on about day 86 and I'm getting to the point where I think about it so much that I've even been dreaming about it lately

Thanks girls, for caringI don't think it will do much good to try to ask for it again. I guess I'll just wait and see if AF shows before the 18th and if not, then I am going to DEMAND the ProveraMy new dosage of Metformin is really bothering my stomach (but then again, it does every time I increase it). Last night was awful. I made a HUGE mistake having a McDonald's burger and friesUGH, won't be doing that again for a while

Katya, looking good, girl. I hope you get great news in the next several days!

Thanks Beth hoping progesterone is over 20nmol this time. Bbs still hurting so hope it's a good sign don't think I will get my bfp but happy I've ovulated on my own three times in a row

Bless you, I hope your doctor listens and gives you the provera

Well another temp drop this morning, that's two days in a row. AF will be here today/tomorrow. I am so upset. At least I was hoping for a 11/12 day LP. Instead it looks like I won't even make it to 9/10dpo. At least it's extra proof that I have low progesterone. Hopefully on Friday I can argue I need progesterone tablets throughout my TWW.

Feeling so bummed out

 

[mrsc81]

Hope you get things moving on friday, cant believe how quick its come round!

 

[Diddums]

Thanks. Just hoping I have a positive appointment. I know I haven't lost all the weight but Ive been trying really hard. I think it's the PCOS making it harder. I'm doing the same eating and exercise my friend is and he's lost so much more weight than me, even taking into account he's male. Just hope the FS doesn't fob me off about low progesterone and short LP. When I spoke to my gp he said it wasn't true and everyone has a 14day LP!

So I'm nervous and excited. And yes it's come round so quickly!

 

[mrsc81]

Your gp Do they actually know anything!
Im sure the fertility specialist will be much more helpful as its there field and know all the ins and outs, unlike gp's who know small amounts about lots of things.

 

[Diddums]

Guess I feel a little better thanks

How you doing? Can't believe you have 8 weeks left until dd!

 

[Diddums]

Oh and my first gym session was really good. Amazing how much more of a workout it is at the gym compared to cycling alone. Did 15min on bike, 15min on treadmill, 15min on cross trainer and 15min on rower. Then a gentle 5min walk to cool down. Was really fun but hard back tonight for induction then going every night this week.

 

[mrsc81]

Im feeling good, other than lack of sleep the past 2 nights, think ive had about 10 hrs in 2 nights, i get up to go toilet and then my mind goes into overdrive or my hips hurt and cant get comfy. Could only be 4/5 weeks if she comes early! I keep reading time and time again women going into labour at 35/36/37 weeks.. i guess she will come when shes ready, 37 weeks is good for me!
Good work at the gym, i was going 5 times a week for 2 hours when i first started, then when i reached my goal weight i cut it down to 4 and then 3, and about 1.5hrs, i did weights too see, i really recommend you do some light weight work, it really helps with the toning, the weight machines is what i used but free weights are even better, depends what you feel comfortable with.
Ive got some dumbbells at home, i wont be going back to gym after baby arrives as cant justify the £54 a month membership fee, i will be walking the dogs, using my dumbbells and doing squats, lunges etc at home.

Katya - I really hope your appointment goes well! You've worked hard, you deserve to get some good news!

Louise - Sorry you aren't sleeping well, that's annoying. I'm already uncomfortable sleeping on my side so I can't imagine how you must be feeling. I'd love to see a new bump picture from you! You must be really popping by now!

I'd actually love to see all the growing bumps, Bex, Rachel, Dee, Lil.

Here's my 25 week bump. (excuse the dirty mirror )

Lovely bumps ladies. Here is my 32 week bumpage

Katya I am a bit jealous of your gyming! I always loved the gym. Weights weer always my favourite, free weights, used with a swiss ball. Love it!

NewMrs, I hope your cycle sorts itself out

 

[Diddums]
