I had my first lot of blood tests done this morning which was fun. The poor phlebotamist (probably spelt wrong but you get the idea ) couldn't get any blood out of me. After an initial try I was sent off to drink some water. Came back and it still wasn't looking hopefull as she couldn't even see any veins in my hands but eventually she managed to get some blood out of me. One of the attempts has turned into a nasty bruise already and it's really quite sore. Oh well.

Ouchie! That sounds painful! :cool: Sorry I don't know anything about CD21 tests. Hopefully someone will be along soon with some answers.

When do they say that the best time to BD is, the day before on and after ovulation, right? Just want to double check...

Sounds about right, although it can't help to BD another day either side too

Thanks. Ummm..I will start it on Saturday and I only have 2 months worth so I make it the end of July unless I have counted wrong?

Then you'll be like me, not TTCing until July:o:beer:

Well Moon and I BD this morning before he went to work (I'm on half term), so hopefully we'll catch that eggy as we BD either side of my positive OPK that I got yesterday.

Make sure you still BD tomorrow as well:)

That sounds about right:) My doctor said to do it 3 days running (never ever managed it though:o).

I'm like you, they had to take some out from the back of my hand once - ouch:o

Anyway how do CD21 blood tests work. Is this the one that tells you if you've ovulated? Am I right to think that if this shows you've ovulated you still might not have released an egg if your tubes are blocked?

I think they check your progesterone level (high enough or not).
If your tubes are blocked, then the egg won't meet the swimmers:o

HAPPY FRIDAY!!

Hi QQ, I've been using Concieve Plus too...

CD26 - we managed to BD yesterday but only 3 days of rumpy this month, so if i'm by some miracle pregnant (don't think i bd'd on the right days) it will have been by (almost) immaculate conception :rotfl:

Have a good weekend all and enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend, going to se Take That this Sunday, SO looking fwd to it...

Gops x

Icey77

I guess the blood test wont be able to determine that though will it and the only way of knowing would be that lap and dye procedure thingy.
