The Trials and Tribulations of Trying to Conceive when its just not happening (12m+)

interesting lilo. I came out at 50. But when I had my hormones tested for PCOS (which I have mildly) I thought they told me I had dominant testosterone. Or I am misremembering?

Morning!

Thanks for the link Lilo - I came out at 30, so it's borderline.

Hope you're doing all right Sarah.

I have lost another pound! 3 more to go before I'm merely overweight!

Looks like it's going to be another cracking day - I'm off for a little swim! No work until 5 May now..

Have a good day!

I did the test and I came out at 130. 30+ is extremely oestrogen dominant, so god knows what 130 is!!! This is on the site www.thrivinghealthywomen.com.au and is extremely interesting reading, plus I googled it.

Interesting. Will read up later.
DH was talking about estrogen dominance last week, and he won't drink milk anymore:o I don't think he realises yogurt came from milk too:D

CD1 for me. Just as I was getting excited about the first cycle I could actually do a HPT as well.
But looking back I had my positive OPK on the Tuesday and BD'd, I had a negative OPK on the Weds and Thurs but still had EWCM and OV pains and that Thursday is exactly 14 days ago. So this cycle will try and DTD a few days after positive OPK (was impossible this month due to circumstance). Will try and temp this month too.
But had virtually no spotting. And I put that down to the acupuncture. Western medicine never managed to "fix" me.

I am not feeling as positive going into this cycle. But will again go and stock up on the expensive OPK's in readiness. And then I will go and stock up on chocolate and treats. Cos I deserve it.

Happy Maundy Thursday. Good luck on the scans today QQ. And everyone else good luck too.

My hospital only do 2 day transfer but I suppose it works out 2 and half days. I have requested 3 day before but never managed to get it and as they are not open tomorrow I have to have it today anyway. I haven't heard anything so I am just hoping the embies are all ok and growing nicely. Will update later.

Chick will be on our 2ww together - we can drive each other mad!!

Good luck!

Good luck Juju!

CCM, sorry AF arrived:o
Temping should tell you when ov's finished.

My scan was fine, did blood test, but haven't got results yet.
Doctor said EC should be Tuesday, but since DH is not here, he'll see about pushing it to Wednesday. Otherwise DH needs to hand in his sample on Saturday to freeze:(

QQ, hope it sorts out ok for you. My son had to miss his first day at school because I had egg collection that couldnt be moved - I wasnt prepared for him to take such a big step without me, but it was embarrassing having to explain to the headmaster!
