    Hi cedrickerry. Any idea in which way your tube is messed up? QUOTE]

    luckily not so serious as yours then - just blocked at the top, only decreased chances of natural conception by 10%. I'm otherwise fine - OV every month as far as we can tell - it's more of a male issue - probably would not have found out about the tube thing if it wasn't for the SA. I know I am so much luckier than other ladies on here. Just a little down thats all

    Trying to channel energy to Christmas Day as you may remember me and DH are opening a youth centre for homeless and other vulnerable young people. I'm amazed at some people's generosity some random cheques and cash just dropped into my office

    Wow what a rewarding way to spend christmas day, do you need voulenteers if your anywhere never Oh working most of christmas day and i'm alone

    what are your plans for christmas mad mac?

    I am feeling better today, thanks! Still, my lower back hurts badly and nose slightly stuffy, but I will live for now! Had another peak on cbfm today, so will try to gather enough energy to bd...

    I have officially started my holiday today and won't have to go to work for 19 days! I know it is extravagance, as we are not going anywhere, but I feel that I really need the break. Besides, this means that I won't have the stress of going to work for my 2ww wait...

    Ah that makes sense to why they're still trying the IUI then. Well done for your charitable work. I'm very impressed! Best of luck with it.

    Cedrickerry, what a worthy cause and way to spend Christmas - well done to you both! Have you set it up as a charity? If so, how about creating a page on justgiving.com to get some more money rolling in your way...

    Nichart, glad the doc has diagnosed you and you'll soon be on the mend. I will try to join you in abstaining from alcohol this festive season as I really, really don't want to give in - I'm doing so well! Apart from that, not planning on doing anything really, apart from cooking and watching telly obviously!

    Lilo, it has just hit me how many test sticks you have used with your CBFM this month. :eek: I'm on the hunt to order another box soon - has anybody managed to beat Amazon's price yet please?

    Well, I was looking forward to my appointment with consultant next week. But - it is not to be... Got a call this morning from the hospital to say that they have cancelled the appointment as there is no doctor to run the clinic that day. They will rearrange the appointment, but when I asked when can I have one, I got an answer that none are available at the moment, and it will possibly be some time in January!

    I feel really upset about this, as it is of of the reasons we stayed in UK this Christmas (we were due to go to my family this year for Christmas&New Year). Yes, we got other plans now, and we got friends and our godson coming for a visit, which will be nice (but it will hurt, as he was conceived the same month as we started trying for a baby and he will 18 months in 2 weeks).

    A great way to start the holiday...

    Bad luck Ginvzt, why do these things always seem to happen at such short notice? Bet you feel cross! Oh well, lets hope you don't have to wait too long into January before you get to see them, x

    Well ladies, I'm just popping in to wish you all a fabulous christmas. (I'm assuming I'll be too busy tomorrow). You lot are a huge support to me, and I really hope you all have the christmas you deserve. Santa should bring us all some PMA to use in 2010 and lots of us will have the BFPs we all dream of. Have a good one ladies.
