  • Welcome suzyp1982, and glad the fertility investigations are going well, everything seems to be well in hand

    Nichart, tatoo sounds good, and yes hubby is still busy!

    VK 2008, try accessdiagnostics.co.uk - a lot of us have bought from them, and you may also find a money off code. I bought clearblue fertility monitor for £50 ish. sticks are cheapest at amazon (or were) They also do cheap preg tests and an ov friendly lubricant called pre-seed. HTH

    Thanks for all your messages I will keep you updated and bore you to tears over the next 7 week process.

    Was going to tell my boss about having time off for IVF but he is away for the rest of the week so that will have to wait. The good news is that my Dr said he will sign me off for the 2ww which hopefully means I will have lots of time to relax and put my feet up.

    Welcome back suzyp - come join the party!
    Nichart - congrats on the tattoo - lets hope you have a little girl to go with it soon.

    I wish the doctor would sign me off for every 2ww - I turn into a basket case every month!

    Welcome Suzy - once the tests are underway, maybe you'll feel like sth productive is happening.

    I'm seeing the specialist on 24 Sept - I expect to be referred straight off for a laparoscopy, but maybe she'll insist on lots of other tests first. I don't really know what to expect.

    A miracle would be nice.

    Nic - whoohoo on the tattoo - just watch out, they're addictive. Sorry about the IVF but it'll come round soon. Happy anniversary for Sunday. Hope you had a lovely day. It's gone so fast hasn't it?

    Juju - wishing you all the luck in the world. I have everything crossed for you (well, almost, since we're coming up to that time lol)

    Chickpea - sorry to see you over here, but hopefully your stay will be a short one.

    All other newbies, welcome and hope your stay here is short.

    Well we're just about ready for our camping trip. Haven't done the sign for the tent yet tho lol. Had a lovely meal for our first anniversary last night at our venue. I had to drink almost a bottle of red to myself as DH was driving then we came home and opened a bottle of pink bubbles in bed :o Still, you only get a first anniversary once right!

    Please keep fingers crossed for dry weather for us from Thursday! Hope to see at least one BFP when we get back.

    Lots of love to all xxx

    I asked about v i a g r a for my DH, and the doctor said he needs to have a blood test before he can prescribe it:huh:

    Is it normal?

    Have a good trip SK. Best way to keep warm is under a blanket - maybe that'll help that elusive little BFP along. Camping, you usually run to the loo less often during the night - that might help keep the little men in there too.

    Good luck this month, and thanks for the welcome (everyone)!
