    Just got the call from a lady at the CB trial and I've qualified, so just awaiting the consent form in the post now.
    Luckily it sounds like I don't have to do urine collections. Was wondering how to explain that to my folks when they come round for tea!!
    The hour long questionnaire sounds fun! :eek:

    Still hoping that I wont need it though, although don't feel confident.

    angeltreats - well that's positive isn't it?
    tcod - hugs coming your way. hope your oh is supporting you after your news. Fingers crossed that it isnt as bad as first seems.
    :heart: Mini me due March 2014 :heart:

    angeltreats, how long have you had the pain for? Sounds like its good news anyway!

    Im looking forward to doing the clearblue trial and glad it sounds like no keeping of wee in the fridge lol, but I am determined to get pregnant this cycle though so I dont have to even do it!!

    Weather is so nice, cant wait for it to get warmer like this all time! evenings are so much lighter too, I hate winter so love this time of year when summer is ahead of us!

    Thanks Claire & Sjlou. It's been nagging since around November last year so really quite a while now but it's got much worse recently. I suppose it is good news but it makes me wonder what on earth it can be, if not a cyst.

    Sometimes you just want to know, whether that be good or bad. I think sometimes its the not knowing that's worse!

    Is it a constant pain or just certain times in your cycle? Is it cramping like period pains?

    All I can think of is endometriosis or a cyst but then if they found nothing on the scan..? Hope when you get your other results back you can get to the bottom of it!

    congrats repetitsir hoping for a happy and heallthy 9 months for your oh and you x

    Hello new ladies may your stay be short and sweet.

    Hugs tcod hopefully you'll get some more answers soon. Hugs to angeltreats hopefully they can do some more checking for you to find out what the problem is.

    Mixed couple of days for me, not even slightly ttc related but I got one of those nram cca refunds so yay for a few grand less to pay on the mortgage. Unfortunately I also found out today that I'm at risk of redundancy so booo. I do have quite a nice redundancy package but all the same I'd rather have a job instead.

    I'm just sat watching game of thrones at the moment from the start in preparation for the new season starting on 1st April which is cheering me up mightily!

    Hugs to all x

    Hi all. I have been lurking for a couple of months now but have finally decided to sign up.

    I came off the pill after six years in November and since then I have had just one measly period. First cycle was CD64 and I am currently on CD50something of second cycle. Pretty sure I'm not ovulating and desperate to know when my body might recover. Cycles were textbook before going on the pill. Any other ladies had similar experiences??

    OH and I are getting married in September but are trying already as we know it might take a while :(

    Hi Sapphire!
    Have you done anything to track ovulation? You can still have long cycles & ovulate, so don't panic just yet.

    Hi Claire!

    No I haven't done anything to track it yet. Haven't had any ecwm at all (I've tried to pick up the terminology, sorry if I get it wrong) and with such long cycles just assumed I wasn't. What's the best way for a total beginner to start doing it?

    Sapphire, I had messed up cycles after coming off the pill - in fact they are still not completely regular after a year. Don't worry though, you can still ovulate with long cycles - some of the girls on here have had very long cycles and been ovulating. One thing I have learnt since being on here is not many people have textbook cycles!

    AFM - got a positive opk today so hopefully ov tomorrow.

    Oh and congrats Repetitsir xx
