Ella, Lisa - thanks so much for the welcome back 
You girls have given me a good boost of PMA 
... along with the very (small!) glass of red I am sipping away at 
My DH has popped in the pub on his way home from work to console one of his team who is having a really tough time. I am waiting to finish cooking our dinner, sausages & mash with onion gravy, I am starving and it smells soooo good! argghhhh!
Feeling silly for feeling sorry for myself earlier, I really have not had it that hard, my tests have all come back with good results and 7 months isn't so bad and there are sooo many women conceiving at our age and much older, there is really nothing to worry about. One thing that gave me a little perspective was the 'Official January/February Testing Thread' tracking threads, you know the ones that list anyone that wants to be listed by their expected testing date, its updated with their BFPs/AF. There is a good example of real life statistics right there! Across all ages and situations, each month roughly 15% of people get their BFP. With that in mind it is 'normal' to take several months to get preggo, some get lucky and conceive straight away, some of us take longer but even the ones that take longer are still 'normal' as frustrating as that can be! Hope that makes sense? - the vino is making me giddy, I am such a light weight lately! Anyway, the moral of the story is "I must be patient", "I must be patient", "I must be patient".
We are finally getting around to getting DH's SA done next week, I'm hoping I can take it in on Monday. The doc said the initial results come back after 3-4 weeks and the detailed results come back a few weeks after that. If we are not preggo by then (which we will be hehe PMA PMA PMA) then we get referred.
Hope you all have a lovely evening you wonderful lot xxx
