    I tested but came back as negative, however still no sign of AF and my pelvic area feels kind of strange, especially on the left hand side it feels like something pinching inside. I'm going to give it until the end of the week and maybe test again, but try first morning urine.

    Oh Sarah that is awful! What a dreadful boss you have! You have to take care of yourself first and foremost and if that "inconveniences" them then so be it!

    FE you really sound like you've got it all going on at the mo, hope things improve for you.

    Good luck Angela.

    Bunnie you must have the patience of a saint! Fingers crossed your patience rewards you with a BFP!

    I agree, Sarah their attitude stinks. Ignore them, and look after yourself. At least it will be all over and done with. Huge hugs being sent your way. XXX

    Bunnie, if its early days, you need 1st wee, so Ill keep it all crossed for now hope that you get your BFP then. XX

    Hi Becs, hope you are well

    Hi Lilo,

    yes I'm ok thanks. I saw my consultant today and he assures me my levels are fine and well within acceptable levels. He said the increase is normal as the levels aren't static and will vary. He said even though last bloods show they were nearly triple what previous ones were it equated to 0.1 rise in your body temp, something that is perfecty normal. I'll have to see whether this months late ov was just a blip, if it's late next month (look at me with my positive mental attitude-assuming no BFP this month!) then I'll get levels checked again to make sure they haven't increased again. On a more positive note my June horoscope says that this is the month for Capricorns planning a baby to make it happen! Both DH and I are both capricorn so who knows!

    Oh Sarah, how cruel some people can be, and as a manager they should especially know better. My 'mean' side thinks you should go to your GP and get signed off for a few weeks, just to spite them!

    Becs, hope the horoscope is right!

    Bunnie - I agree, if it is early then you really need 1st morning pee, and one of those 'early response' tests. Really hoping for you!

    Hi Lilo - Yes Friday is my first scan. I've been resting lots, drinking pineapple juice (yuk!) and making sure I eat plenty of protein, so hopefully the follies will be growing nicely! Not resorted to hot water bottles yet - it is far too hot for that - but did have the cat on my lap all last evening, so maybe that will help....Grow Follies, Grow!

    THanks all. He's not really dreadful just a typical male with few social abilities. You know, when I had my son three months early and was incredibly ill in hospital, neither he nor my other colleague sent a letter or message. There were letters from other people in the office and a card and flowers from everyone collectively, but from the two men I work most closely with? nothing. It taught me a lot about how important it is to communicate iwth peopole going through a hard time, even if you don't know what to say. There's nothing worse than thinking that people don't care, which is how I felt (and still feel, really).

    Went into hospital and signed the consent forms for the opt his morning. THey were pretty good at putting me to the top iof the queue so I didn't have to wait in a room of pg ladies. Sadly, they all know me quite well now in that unit.

    Dont worry about the memory Somnium - its just getting you ready for being a parent. My DS is 6 and my brain has not reappeared yet, in fact it seems worse than ever. Can you get dementia at 40?

    Ps Asking in advance - can anyone give me any advice, by cycle has gone AWOL! Its 3weeks regular now. I know the surgery will have ballsed it up, but I have settled into a cycle now. Cant conceive for a couple of months anyway, but want to make sure that everything is on course. I think!! that its the first half of my cycle has gone wrong, I am fairly sure that my second half is 14 days ish. Is it Evening primrose oil or Agnus Castus - help!! But the good news is that I still seem to have some EWCM which I was expecting to lose! yipee!!!

    Sarah I think that's awful about work. What a rotten bunch you work for! Seeing as they all only care about themselves make sure you take time out for yourself!:mad:

    Lilo, not sure about the cycle length. My cycle is all over the place and I'm on clomid which I thought would even it out. I think agnus castus is supposed to regulate it but you can't take it after ov if your 'trying'. I'm sure someone else on here will knoe more about it.
