    Now you've gone and said that, I've googled sore throats as an early preg symptom and loads came up - so now I am SSing and considering
    Ooops... No SSing:naughty:
    am seriously considering a CBFM.
    It should be brilliant if you don't know your ov dates, and otherwise healthy;)
    P.S OH has just phoned the docs to get the results from his sperm test and they wouldn't tell him over the ohone. They have asked him to come in on the 7th June to see the doc.
    Should we be worried?
    I don't know. I assume he'll get some printout with some numbers, so he'll have to get it himself, and get some explanation;)

    How does the semen analysis work? Does he go to the docs, and get handed a cup to put his swimmers in? Does he do it in the toilet?

    I have an appointment with the fertility specialist on 9th June. So will find out soon enough...

    I've just bid on one on ebay, it's used though, does that matter? will I be able to reset it to my cycle. I'm going to get a basal thermometer from there as well......oh well, trying something new....here goes......

    He went to the docs who made an appt for him at the hospital where they do the analysis, the doc gave him the cup and labels etc. Then he had to take a sample in to his appointment at the hospital which was no more than an hour old, he also could ejaculate for 72 hours before.

    Upto you where you want to do it, he did it at home then we broke all speeding laws to get to the hospital within the hour ;).

    Dusty, you can reset CBFM quite easily I think.
    Also, the pee does not touch the machine, so used is OK:cool:

    TTC can become a chore, so it's good to have something new to keep the interest/spirit up:j

    1hr to get OH's swimmers in? Hope OH can do that OK:p
    He didn't seem so keen, but that's million times easier that what we have to go through;)

    Primmer, 11DPO? Exciting times:) I wonder if the baby is implanting OK?
    PMS & Pg symptoms are virtually identical, so keep your PMA up:j

    CBFM? It will come tomorrow, I know it:cool:
