Hi Ladies! I've not been on in a few days, so had lots to catch up on!
Here we R - thanks for asking after me a few pages back!
Lekker - fingers crossed for the referral - not before time! Good luck with the job thing.
Teddy - as a fellow spotter, I completely sympathise with where you're at. Glad to hear the counselling is going well.
phrumkidost - glad to hear you didn't bd with every man there, whilst in Singapore! Sorry to hear your body is messing you around; hopefully you'll get answers soon.
4 Magpies - welcome!
Ash - good luck for Wednesday's ET! I'm sure the doc didn't mean to be short - it's just that they deal with these things all the time, whereas for us it's life-changing events, and strangely, we tend to focus our attentions on it! I'd find it really hard making the decision for how many to transfer; Personally, I wouldn't particularly want twins first time (always thought if we got to a second time, twins might be a good idea as I always wanted 3 children, but I know OH would say 2 was enough - it would be a sneaky way to get my way!) but equally, if you have 2 transferred, you could lose one anyway, as happened to a friend of mine this year, who is now 14 weeks with 1 and very happy! It's such a minefield! I wish you loads of luck though, and hope that if you get 2 transferred, you end up with 2 ickle babies in 9 months time!
Thanks to whoever posted the stats for bd in relation to ov a few pages back - very interesting! (sorry I can't remember who it was!)
AFM, well I got on to the fertility nurse about the spotting. She'd previously dismissed it during my first FS visit (as all other medical professionals have!), but I think me telling her that I spot or bleed for potentially 17 days in a month made her realise that apart from anything else, its frustrating and impractical, but maybe she also thought something wasnt' right. The upshot was that she got back to me after speaking to a consultant and said the consultant will look at my cervix. So I have that joy to look forward to on Christmas Eve!!!
I'm still doing acupuncture, but I've cut back, partly due to the cost and partly because I'm not really seeing any benefits. I'm thinking of stopping my visits after the next one and maybe taking them up again as and when we're on an IVF cycle, as it's supposed to be particularly beneficial then.
I didnt' use my CBFM this month, so I'm not entirely clear on when I ov'ed, but it was one of 3 days, so if I plump for the middle, I'm 7dpo. I thought I had some 'sensations' yesterday - not really pulling or pinching, but possibly poky feelings inside. It's almost certainly nothing, but I have to hope this could be it...
