    I've caved and tested this morning... (OTD is tomorrow anyway for an hCG blood test).

    I've known about this thread for years but only starting reading yesterday. I didn't want to hope or dream too much and I found any reminder difficult. I spent hours reading yesterday afternoon - right back to 2009. Some of it made me laugh and some of it made me cry.

    Today I'm back again. I know you guys don't know much about me (I'm a regular on The Arms and DT and rarely stray away). But I've got to tell someone my news and you lot know just how much it means... BFP!!

  • Congrats Fluffnutter :beer:

    Hope youre ok SK and your little ones are snugglin in for a nice long snooze xx

    CCM hope your scan went well Friday

    Im now CD7, have to start POAS CD9 then ring clinic to say when I ovulated, then its drugs time:eek:

    Have got my prescription for the hormone tablets so will try and get them Monday. Just had a thought tho, I suppose starting the downregging tablets (Im assuming thats the correct term:o) means we shouldnt DTD just in case by some miracle of miracles we get pregnant:cool:. I would have thought the nurse would have mentioned this and I didnt think to ask. Can anyone help with this please?

    Congratulations Fluffnutter!

    Are you still testing tomorrow SK? If so, good luck!

    I'm cd20 still on an unassisted cycle - my consultant has said to keep trying until Jan next year & then he'll refer us for ivf - no chlomid or iui as he doesn't seem to think it would help us.

    I've run out of cbfm sticks so it's now just a very expensive cd counter! 

    Brilliant news SK! Bet you can't believe this is it, finally.

    I hope it's plain sailing from here on in.

    ++++++

    Turning into a lucky month!

    I hope it's lucky for a few more too.

    (I would say 'including me' but I have adjusted my expectations by now - and at the moment I am just waiting for this month and next month to be over so I can officially 'give up' - and to tell the truth, I can't wait!)
  • Congrats SK!!!
