So Q, when are you going to test? I'm trying to give myself til Friday, which would be two days before AF. Though I'm now pretty sure I'm not pg as the slightly sore (.) (.) have gone away this morning.

Juju - hope you are hanging on in there, must be a horrible 2ww, and i can't imagine being off work helps with talking your mind off it!

AF is due today for me (would have been yesterday but a few very long cycles recently have pushed me into a 30 day average), and I am trying hard not to get my hopes up

There is nothing to decorate yet - it is just man power needed to remove all the wallpaper! Although, I only offered this as way forget about things as I love my diy. (Well, friends gave me a wallpaper stripper for my birthday, and I have informed my OH today, that he bought me a Bosch power tool for sanding/sawing/cutting - couple of years ago he had to get me a cordless drill... It works well, as he hates diy!)

Ever thought of changing your career?

Good luck sarah and Q on your upcoming test - lets hope for some good news.

Had a few twinges yesterday but nothing much, bit of a bad lower back too I am praying thats the embie getting into the lining. Not much going on today. More lazying around on the sofa with my feet up.

Possibly, but not to decorator

Will see how I get on with this house - I have 4 bedrooms, lounge, dining room and a second reception (our library/music room) to do. Wait until a couple weeks from today I come back crying about huge bill we have to pay to plasterer to sort out my mistakes!

I'm testing on Sunday which is the day AF is due and the day the doctor told me to test if AF hasn't arrived:o

I know the doctor said this IUI is unlikely to work because of DH's state of the swimmers, but one can't stop hoping:o

good luck to all those testing shortly we are due a bfp soon!

Cedrickerry are you local then? Are you NHS or Private? Our doctor referred us almost 4 weeks ago and we got the letter on Saturday. It's only for our initial appointment tho. I assume they'll want to check my tubes etc before recommending any treatment. We fit the 18 weeks referral to treatment criteria so we should be starting whatever treatment they advise by the first week in February. We can't wait to get going.

Oh wow. If you're GP's got onto it then - it shouldn't be long before you get your letter. We could be IUI/IVF cycle buddies

Right, I got my 'training' yesterday how to 'stab' myself with the needle, how to draw up syringe, etc. I got my scan booked for November 18th. I know, it won't take to come, but it does seem a while - 3 weeks! By rough calculations, we are looking at EC week commencing November 29, then ET few days later, and test by December 18. Will see.
