    I asked him to initiate ov BDs as I do enough throughout the cycle, inc getting stuck with needles! Oh well, as long as the job got done!
    Brilliant idea, not sure if it'll work with DH though:o
    Lets see if it gives DH swimmers a boost, Ive read good things about this stuff, fx
    When I used Preseed, it was one of those pre-filled ones. There were far too much in there:o

    Good luck:)

    Last cycle doing lunaception I slept fine with my eye mask on, better than fine actually :) It only fell off a couple of times but I noticed in the middle of the night and popped it back on. This cycle it has fallen off every night, I keep waking in a panic because it ends up around my neck and I think I'm being strangled! Not good! :o

    Good news that you've got the lap booked TTC40! :)

    I use Concieve Plus but don't insert it, just pop it on OH :o First time we used it he shook the tube expecting it to be quite gloopy and it just shot out and went everywhere! :eek:

    Had to go to work super early and no digi in house. Will get One today! Used fmu for another ic and the line is still there. I'm a bit disbelieving of it tho. Still getting cramps. Am booked in to docs today and might ask for test there.

    In a way I quite like this no mans land and don't want to risk the bubble being burst by a negative digi!

    Oh and we were at OH's Nana's funeral yesterday, he's got a big family who were all asking us when we're going to provide them with a new baby to play with. One of his cousins asked me how old I am and when I said 27 she went, 'Oooh tick tock, best get on it!' :eek: Another one said to me (when I'd mentioned that I was full) 'It's about time that belly was filled with something else, don't you think Dear?!' :eek:

    How the heck are we supposed to politely deal with things like that?!

    Weird...I had exactly the same experience yesterday, at DH's grandma's funeral!

    I just ignore people when they say things like that, or make out that we're not interested in starting a family yet.

    I asked the consultants secretary to find out how long I should plan to be off work - she has said 1 - 4 weeks! I was expecting her to say a few days.

    It does depend on what they end up doing, someone has told me they were tender for a few days & off a week. I'm expecting to be back at work by the following Monday (and probably working from home before that). It will be a shock if I do have a long recovery!

    I was signed off for two weeks after my laparoscopy. TBH, I hated my job so I was quite happy to take the time off! I guess physically I was fine after a few days, although still a bit tender.

    Remember that, if you're signed off, you're not insured. So if you do want to start work earlier, you'll need to go to the quack's and get signed back on again.

    I'm a lover of eye masks (and ear plugs - I like to sleep in sensory deprivation!).

    I've got a few pairs - these are the best I've found. Plus you've got the cool pack (not that I've used it).

    Birdie - is there enough to do the job if you just put it on OH?

    LOL, I'm like that too (generally... not sure what's going on ATM with my eye mask!). OH and I both wear ear plugs to sleep, no idea how we're going to survive without them when we have a LO and need to keep our ears open! :p

    Good luck with your lap. I had one back in 2009 and had a fair bit of scar tissue removed. I was up and about in a few days but didn't go back to work until 2 week later as my stitches got infected and I couldn't drive. Hope it all goes well x
