    I am so sorry Angelavdavis, as the others said it really is too cruel. Nobody should have to go through any of this for what should be the most natural thing in the world. It adds insult to injury when you do go through what you have done and the outcome is this. Many many hugs for you.
    FE keeping things crossed for you.It only takes 1!

    Hi,

    So sorry AD, how cruel, look after yourselves and take some time out before thinking what to do next.

    FE, well done for being PUPO.

    Hang on in there and rely on us during the 2ww to keep you sane.

    Angela, I am so sorry that you have had this, huge, huge hugs.

    Fe, I know you would have preferred more, but excellent quality, and you only would have had 2 back in anyway. Remember Nottslass, she only had one, and the quality was not as good and she was really down - it worked. If it is meant to be it will. Huge hugs for you too.

    Oh Angela, that's really crappy news, I'm so sorry. Why can't life just give us a break sometimes, I just don't know, x

    FE - here's to getting the 2WW over with as smoothly as possible and you'll be bringing good news our way soon. Thinking sticky thoughts for you!

    FE- good luck!!!! Take it it easy and believe that it will work this time!!!!

    Well, I am fed up with my body playing on me. It seems like it is going to be my shortest period yet. I started spotting on Tuesday (day 23!!!!!) and was spotting more yesterday, with enough blood to warrant a pad last evening, so I am sure AF is on her way today, any minute now! That will make it a 24 day month!!!!!! I hope the reason for all this is cyst and once that is sorted I will be abck to normal. I had more spots than ever this month, I and I am so fed up! Was hoping that our holiday will be good time to ttc, and planned the holiday to have when the chances are best, but if AF is showing up today, then the best time will be just before holiday...

    Anyway, I am not sure we should ttc while this annoying cyst (which causes no pain to speak of as yet) is still there!

    ginvzt, hope your cycle settles soon. Try not to worry about the cyst, I have had them anything up to size of an orange, mine went on their own - some do apparently. I had a lap and they decided not to drain. I have one somewhere at the moment, that always confuses them doing the scans for IVF, they can never decide if it is a follicle or a cyst!

    hope you are waiting patiently FE!

    Thanks lilo! I am not really worried about the cyst itself - I just want to get with ttc, and consultant implied that we shouldn't until I have laparoscopy done - which doesn't look like going to be done before mid July.

    I am just having a mad day at work. Just want to go home now!!!!!

    Only just seen your post ginvzt - I am sure all these consultants etc all sing off different songsheets. I have had them on and off for years, and no one has every told me not to ttc because of them - The very first one about 15+ years ago was when I first started with exDH and nothng was said at all. But just to show how daft they are - After my surgery, I am not supposed to get pregnant for 6 months, for healing and so that I can have MRI/smear etc for checking. I went for a check up on Tuesday, and the Doctor seemed quite confused that I had been told that, and didnt seem to know that that was the recommendation. !!!!!!? Glad she wasnt curing me!!!

    Have fun everyone - Lilo

    Oh well, we got a call last night from a friend, to tell us their good news - they are expecting a baby - 7 weeks gone so far. I just couldn't hold it and had a cry. Still feel tearful. I am happy for them, don't get me wrong, but back in my mind, there this this question - 'When is it my turn?????'

    I am glad they called and shared their news with us - they haven't told any other friends yet. They are back in Italy, and we probably won't see them any time soon, but still - at least I won't hear this from a third party and it gives me time to get used to the news that someone else is pregnant and I am still not!

    I am sure our turn will come.

    On AF front, she is still not here - just a pinkish discharge for a fourth day, with the only noticeable blood on day 3... I hate my body for playing me up.
