Yay for a three-day weekend! Have all the UK ladies got something nice planned for the bank holiday?
PaddleGal - Hi!
Welcome to the best thread on the forum.
On the TTC issue, we're not 'out'. The only people who know apart from us are my boss (who has had TTC problems herself, and is being very supportive) and one other colleague. So I find BnB great for asking questions and venting.
CC -
b****y NHS. If you could face making a complaint, it might stop it happening to someone else.
Drhouse - ooooooo exciting. Let us know how it goes.
Ness - I sometimes worry about the bugs and viruses that the little darlings bring into school, especially as parents don't always let you know. It's always got to be better to be safe than sorry. Take the time to relax and not stress about temps and timing.
Maddy - sending positive sticky vibes your way.
Dwrgi, Lils, Doorbell, Pebble, Twinkle and everyone else - may this week give you everything you need or hope for.
AFM - bit of a strange one at the moment. Last cycle had spotting 7 and 8 DPO, which looked a bit like implantation spotting (not that I've has it before, so I'm just going from what I read). Then it stopped, so I felt really quite positive, especially as I had sore bbs from 1 DPO, a dip in temp, and an aching ovary, like it was working really hard doing something (?!?). But then, after one clear day, AF started. Was a bit gutted, but as I hadn't even got to doing a test, I'll never know what was actually going on. I'm just hoping it was a step forward towards a BFP. I've started acupuncture, which might also make a difference. Am currently CD 12, expected to ov next week, so I've just got to keep my fingers crossed again, stay relaxed (hah!), and get busy!
), which stings, but it feels less bad than having people asking us all the time how it's going. Or giving obnoxious advice. Or saying stupid stuff about things being "meant to be." Only 3 IRL friends know: one lesbian friend had 4 failed IUIs, so has given up unless she ever gets insurance that covers IVF; one friend who took 1.5 years and 3 IVF cycles to get her daughter; and another friend who had 2 mcs before she adopted her daughter from China. I really only wanted to share with people who would understand how difficult it can be. All parents were told about the mc in the fall, and it was fairly disastrous, so we don't talk to them about it anymore. God only knows how many people my mom told, so I'm sure others know that I'm not listing here.
But, it was lovely! Hope you have a lovely weekend planned! Big 
I think that's a first since I joined! (I'm a newbie as well--September 2012.) Where did everybody go?? 
Hope the acupuncture helps!
