    Tcd I didn't think counselling was for me but honestly it was a life saver for me. You go in the room, you talk about how you feel to a stranger who doesn't judge or have her own opinions for an hour and it really helped me to get my mind straight and accept what had happened x

    Becca lots of love, don't know what else to say, it's horrible that this journey can be so tough x

    Hi all,
    Tea *hugs* I just have no words, but am thinking of you.
    *hugs* beeca, it's pants :(
    AHHHHHHH, think I have thrush for the first time I can remember. Must have been all the prodding, poking and meds for tests that has been going on.
    Any advice what works best?

    IMHO go for Canesten Internal cream. Not sexy, but works quickly and comprehensively. You have to get the cream to the source of the problem (which is right inside) not just to the itchy symptoms outside.

    don't forget to treat your OH with the cream too otherwise you'll just pass it backwards and forwards. Also take some pro-biotics which help with the balance of bacteria down there. You can even insert some natural yogurt on a tampon to relieve the symptoms.

    ETA: Becca, sorry for CD1.

  • So where are you at now loulou? As in are you on any plan with a fertility clinic or anything? Sorry if you've already said and its me just missing it.

    BZ I know this sounds weird, but I hope your hubby has a hernia!

    Teamlowe how are you feeling now?

    Dragged myself to work yesterday, and was alright in the end. I think clomid is extending my luteal phase by a week. Cant stand not testing, but can't stand the BFNs either :(

    Hugs Becca :(

    Tea&Cake glad you got your note extended. I really hope you start to feel better soon.

    Good vibes, the only thing that works for me is the oral stuff - diflucan or canestan duo

    This is my go to cure. Works a treat and the coldness is very soothing...:o

    Caneston Duo, with some pro biotics/acidophilus etc and plenty of water, is my best recommendation good vibes.

    Becca, I've been at that point many times. Hope you feel brighter soon.

    Wtdn, I hope it's an infection that simple antibiotics will cure!

    Part mouse, hopefully it's an unfounded fear in this instance


    Af didn't arrive early thankfully. I'm very much doubting that the spotting was that illusive "implantation spotting" - I think I just bled as I released an egg, as I had spotting at ov again too - but it hasn't stopped my mind messing with me and ganging up on me with Hope, behind my back though... :cool:
