Well I'm only 8 DPO but had a bit of reddish discharge this morning. Hope that's not AF coming as that would be a week early, after it was already 5 days early last month. The first two months off the pill it was bang on time. Mmmhhhh??????? Maybe my body still getting used to being off the pill? See what tomorrow brings

Amy - Take good care of yourself. Feeling guilty won't make you better any sooner.

Tinks - Glad you are feeling a bit better and have started running again.

We watched the Babymakers on i-player. The staff were lovely but those results we're really disappointing. Led to an interesting discussion with OH about how far we were willing to go to get pregnant. We are going to try superhard to get ourselves as healthy as possible so we don't have to go through that.

afm. My temps are much lower in the tww than normal. Think this is probably a side effect of the soy. Not going to do that again. A bit worried about what clomid will do to me, need to have a chat with the FS.

I've just watched the babymaker programme on iplayer, think its made me even more fed up! Really felt for the poor couples who didn't have any success, especially the ones who on the 2nd try got pregnant but it was ectopic.

Was worth watching though as I feel that's the route we are heading down now, to learn about the stages of treatment etc.

Did you definitely only ovulate 8 days ago?

As normally even if you ovulate at different times each month your luteal phase should stay pretty much the same.

Well I've had my scan this morning, my bladder wasn't full enough so I had to have an internal one. The sonographer didn't show me the screen, nor did she give anything away so I'll just have to wait until I get the results from the GP next week.

sorry to hear you're still feeling ill Amy Hope you get better soon

I enjoyed the Babymakers, it was so sad and scary though that only 1 couple actually ended up with a baby. Really brought it home, I just kind of had IVF in the back of my mind as the last resort to go home with a baby, but the chances of it working are still quite slim! Felt so sorry for all of the couples, it seems so unfair that some people are just not destined to be parents. I also had a chuckle about the 'sperminator', and I liked the way that the head consultant man said that people need to go back to basics and have quick, anxious caveman sex! :rotfl:

The results were definitely disappointing but they were similar to results if you're just doing it the 'normal' way which I found interesting. But I guess you hope that if theyve already done the best sperm collecting, and fertilised the embryo then it should be higher as half the part is already done, it just needs to attach!!

That dr I found quite reassuring I think, plus I feel less scared of ivf if I ever sadly had to go down that route. It just seemed so routine and the staff so skilled. And when that couple got their bfp it was amazing. But yes so sad for the others.

One thing he really did make me laugh about - was when he was describing the best way to bd, around your mother in laws house :rotfl:
