Big hugs Janet. I mc'd at the end of January.

Danceroi - I did acupuncture after my chemical in March 2010 and followed through till it became obvious to me a few months later that I was headed for IVF. I had one appt last week but I never made it to this week's appt. I think I have a bad association with it because of what was going on at the time I was last doing it.

Omg thus us definately lucky thread. Great news!!! So chuffed for you. Yay. I am thinking about changing the date i get my blood test for progesterone as think tomorrow is too early. What do you all think?

 

[garfie]

I would wait until you can see you have deff Od hun

I had a month like that where I was booked in and changed it until later - the doc argued with me saying no you must come in at 21DPO considering my cycles were 19 Days how could that work

Best to wait until you are 7DPO if it falls on a weekend 6DPO is okay but I would say no earlier - or else you won't get an accurate reading and then what is the point?

[josie1234]

I have changed the date so now get progesterone checked on Tues 12 Mar, CD 23. Fingers crossed all is ok. Anxious to see what the OPK tests say today. I ran down the stairs yesterday to OH with 2 smiley faces, one on my face, one on my test lol. Hey who'd have known Lisa that you would have so many people on this thread and do believe that it is a good luck thread. Good luck to everyone. Hope to hear from Becks soon as thinking about her, hope she is ok xxxx

 

[dancareoi]

Wow, busy on here today.

Janet, so sorry for your loss, but you are in the best place for support.

Jo, good idea to change date of test, they told me CD 21 but that us based on an exact 28 day cycle with 14 day LP. I was told to call my docs day of positive OPK and they would book me in for 8 days later. So you should be good for next tues. it can be a day either side I think.

Crazy - wow, wow, wow, lots of congrats and sticky dust floating your way. More details required please!

Fiona, have you seen a doc? Like Jo, they may be able to do some tests.

Becks, still waiting to hear you ok.

Regina, hi

Sorry if missed anyone.

 

[josie1234]

How you feeling today Lisa? Hope you have MS (meant in the best sense). Not much else to report. Bit of backache and cramps. Gonna do opk soon. Dont know whether to do pee stick this morning and digi later or do digi for both lol. Hubby says i am getting obsessed. Oh well if it leads to sticky bean, i am not bothered lol.

 

[garfie]

I would do stick first hun and see what it reveals then do smiley later - smileys cost so much

Lisa - Any new symptoms

I did have lots of tests done last year the AMH FSH & 7DPO - here is my story

January New year new beginning - asked for the tests as it was 6 months since the loss they did them all okay, got a phone call a few days later I was borderline and had to have them repeated so I did all okay

February - come in again there's been a mix up - the results weren't yours WHAT! went in February waited for the results got a bit p~~~~d off phoned up - what tests no results aaaarrrrrrgh.

March - Went again (by passed the docs) asked to go straight to hospital - funny the doc didnt argue anyway that month was a bust as 7DPO fell on a weekend and I only had an 8 day LP.

April - went to the hospital again missed out the docs had my request from March still - had prog tested 76 deff Od then (also had sneaky suspicion I was preg told the doc she laughed and told me far to early blah blah) I was right

So if I ask for any tests now they say you have had 3 m/c 2 healthy children of course you have eggs and O - so now I am waiting to hear from the recurrent m/c clinic in Sheffield where I am hoping they will be a bit more empathic

Seems to have dragged on for you.

Each NHS trust seems to have their own way of doing things, some more drawn out than others.

Jo, still felt a little sicky this morning, but not as bad as it has been, maybe it's starting to wear off a little!

 

[garfie]

Ladies

Got my appointment through for the 27 March Also got my supply of OPKs - so whats a girl gotta do? - POAS of course

HELP - It's positive wtf I surely can't be O this early - anyone wanna see can put a pic up?

[josie1234]

Hi garf, yes of course, put piccie on. What CD are you?

Well couldn't decide whether to do digi or pee on stick so did both lol, whats a girl got to do eh? POAS-addict. No smiley face, here's my piccie from pee on a stick. Think it might have been and gone!

 

[garfie]

OMG josie - that's the same handles one as mine - but I'm on CD4....... what CD are you on? is this the first time you have used these OPKs?

[garfie]
