Wow this makes me realise how lucky we are to have the NHS here in the UK. I live in Wales so all prescription medicine is free as well as free pregnancy testing facilities. All women are entitled to fertility treatment for free on the NHS... we don't have to pay a pennywe are so very lucky! Xx

I think you only get a certain number of 'goes' at iui/ivf tho... i think its 3.. but we do also have a 'postcode lottery' which means you get different amounts or different treatmets free depending on where you live which is a bit unfair. I think, anyway.
If you already have children also I dont think you are eligible for free fertility treatment
its really interesting to learn the differences!!
ayclobes - welcome and very sorry for your loss - Im not sure as to whether you need to wait to ttc, your gp must have a good reason for asking you to though. xx
So hmm. Maybe this IS my lucky month!!!!! 
So, how does this whole, peeing more frequently symptom work? Hahaha. I used to only pee twice a day (6am, before work, and 4pm, after work). Lately I've not been able to get through the workday without running to the ladies room around noon, and last night (our cat decided it was play time at 3am) and I had to pee so bad I had to get out of bed! But, to my knowledge I'm not drinking any more than usual.
In other news; I won a raffle at work today and got $25.
You are required by law to go to school until you're 16, most people go until they graduate at about 18. If you dont you have no shot to get a job. And most of the time its not a great job unless you go to college. Thats where I am. University of Akron. Prolly not for long though 
I failed a class last semester, and got C's in the rest of them... my granma passed and i had a breakdown in the middle of the semester... planned on quitting. My mom talked me out of it and i had to play catch up. Anyways they put me on academic probation until my grades came up and they said they would dismiss me if i got lower than a C this semester... well my Biology final just got posted and I got a 66% which is a D. IDK what im going to do

It's unhealthy to be peeing only twice a day when not pregnant. It means that you either not drinking enough water, drinking the right amount of water but in large goes or something else is wrong. When I spoke to the doctor he said you should be drinking about a glass a water every hour, and going for regular toilet breaks. (Easier said then done when the toilet is half way across the office, and there is only one of them and by the time and I go and come back I've missed a call and get in trouble) but yeah 2 times a day is bad. 7 -8 is recommended but 5 is a good compromise
all that hard work and study plus so much student debt and I work as a restaurant manager its actually ridiculous xx
ok...unfortunately its an angel baby...miscarried yesterday
I know, I'm excited to have a sig buddy, too! Maybe the lady who disappeared will come around again soon. I will definitely let you know how the preseed goes. I explained it to DH the other day, and he was fine with it one way or the other. I think this might be our cycle... I just have that feeling. Maybe because for the first time since TTC I feel like DH is 100% on board
AFM- still waiting. I should be OV around next Saturday. DH and I both have next Friday off, so we should definitely be able to get BDing in Thurs and Friday, at least. It's hard sometimes with us working so many hours at work to get it in during the week.
But even if I've just ov on Saturday I won't touch a drop.@Jo-Im 21
Yep, my other buddy has reappeared - I figured she would. She's just really busy with work & has two little ones to look after already so she hasn't got much time to be online.
Have you tried the preseed yet? I still haven't ov - I'm hoping for Monday because I'm going out on Saturday & I really want to be able to drink guilt free. I'm going on a "12 Pubs of Christmas" pub crawl (!!) & I don't want to be walking around Dublin in the freezing cold & sober!
I know I am very wary of drinking, the only time that I do is after my cycle has just begun. That's why I am hoping that I know one way or the other before New Year's Eve- that's when my next cycle would be due to start. I'm not a heavy drinker, but if I don't get my BFP, I'd like to be able to enjoy a glass of wine or champagne. I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!
