    Hugs Tink for CD1.

    Have called the hospital today to find out the wait for my lap (FS had said 4 months). They have said 5 months.

    This is just when I will go on a long haul holiday. Wouldn't want it in the couple of weeks before due to recovery so in reality would mean mid October at the earliest.

    Have e mailed FS to find out if I could still have NHS lap if I had a private IVF in the meantime.

    If I have to pay for lap sooner & then not successful then will still have to pay for IVF - although this is a change of heart from my thinking that maybe I wouldn't do IVF!

    I feel really sorry for OH as he's got to deal with all my mind changing - good job he's laid back!

    Laid back OHs are the best:cool:
    I suppose private lap is not an option?

    Nothing much going on here, except plenty of cramping, so think AF is a couple of days off. So much for having a decent lengthed LP.

    Plus lovely pmt happening. Have spent all day running around after people again, OH as apparently he's 'ill' but seems perfectly happy playing on his computer and ignoring me. And then some little turds decided to kick open one of the doors at work, effectively breaking in, so spent most of the morning waiting for the police.
    Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.

    grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    Courage to change the things I can,And wisdom to know the difference.

    It is an option & one we would have taken had the FS not mentioned NHS option.

    However, in my mind the dilemma is that I can have the lap for free if needed but time (and patience) isn't on my side.

    If I need IVF, I will have to pay so should I do that now anyway?

    If I knew the lap was the solution, I would pay & have it next week - but then if I knew that I could probably forecast 6 lottery numbers on Saturday night (and could then afford IVF for us all).

    Can someone explain CD to me?

    I signed up for fertilityfriend and now have the app on my phone. Will see how that goes.

    2 friends have announced they are pregnant this week. Is it normal how rubbish I feel :( I'm happy for them but wish it was us. What will I be like in a few months time?!

    I've learned from coming on here that we have all felt like that, so perfectly normal.

    Hiya,
    didn't post yesterday, another 13 hour shift! went to H&B yesterday and bought some soy ready to start taking tonight, they are really big :eek:
    I thought I was was going to be gutted when AF arrived but I was pretty ok with it, probably because it was only the first month for us and our chances were pretty low to catch on the first cycle.

    becca - welcome :j

    teamlowe - we got married in Vegas at the top of the Stratosphere tower!

    Just nipping in quickly to give hugs to anyone who needs them.

    Those who have looked at my chart so far, does it look normal to you? I really have no idea what the hell I am doing with it and they all seem to be so different. I've not had a positive ov stick yet so should I presume I haven't ov'ed?
