    Sophia's mum after my d&c it took about 2 and a half weeks I think for me to get a negative. I still had morning sickness for around a week.

    Teacake - my friend called me today to say she went for an ultrasound thinking she's got endo but the woman found two uteruses so she's having an MRI to check exactly what type it is - although reading on google even that can't show 100%. Anyway the dr really scared her but we've been doing some searches & found a ton of success stories. It seems that it's likely to require lots of monitoring, possible best rest, cervical stitches, steroid shots etc

    Or some types of abnormalities can be fixed with surgery. So I'm hoping you both have a positive outcome.

    Sophiasmum I had positive hpts for six weeks after my erpc in July. Epu advised me to see my gp and have a blood test done every two days for a while to ensure the level was decreasing.

    It's awful as you feel like your misery is being prolonged, but it's normal and it will drop and you will have a baby soon xxx

    Wow! This threads moves way too fast for my slow reading! :p been lurking and trying to keep up this week but have to admit I'm a bit behind! Working is Soooooo inconvenient! The worst thing is that I'm on a computer all day but I don't dare come on this forum in case a colleague sees. We are a very small team and we've had some strange reactions to pregnancy announcements from the bosses.....!

    Katy - So sorry to hear about your colleague. She's lucky to have such supportive colleagues.

    Teaandcake- Good luck tomorrow! Completely agree with you on the drinking when TTC.

    Atton - yay for last assignment! :T

    Sophiasmum - I hope you enjoy your Friday night vino! I'm a little embarrassed that my 70 year old FIL tells everyone that "oh no, bex cant drive tonight because friday night is rose night!" He makes me sound like a wino!

    I'm very happy at the minute because I am now on 12 DPO, which is the longest my luteal phase has ever been since we started TTC in October. Im on cycle day 29 and my app says that AF is currently 2 days late based on my average cycle length which ranges from 26-29 ish days. Took a test this morning and it was a BFN which I expected as thought it was probably too early to test and also I don't 'feel' pregnant. Although having never been pregnant before I'm not really sure what it would feel like!

    Anyway, its thanks to you lovely ladies that I learnt that taking a B complex could help extend my LP so thanks all! :)

    Tomorrow I'll try and get up to speed with the thread so I can see how everyone else is! :)

    Hugs to all those who need one! Xxx

    I'm hoping that they find I have one uterus with a large septum that can be removed surgically to create a 'normalish' uterus... I'm keeping everything crossed it isn't unicornuate as there's nothing that can be done for that and even if they say it isn't too small there's still a very high (60%) risk of miscarriage and stillbirth- it doesn't get less risky once you hit the magic 12 weeks...

    This website has been useful for me... http://mulleriananomalies.blogspot.co.uk/ If your friend has two uteruses then she may find something useful on here too. :)

    Thanks for your good luck wishes everyone. :)

    I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself with a stinking cold. I have the full on streaming nose, temperature, sore throat and cough. Not good when I'm CD10 and should be baby dancing. :(

    GP's visit in the morning. If I'd known I was going to be ill I wouldn't have made it for so early! If she's happy with my thyroid and progesterone, does anyone know what she might test for next? I'm worried how hubbie will take it if she suggest a test for him, but maybe his cycling for 2.5 hours a day has an effect. :think:
    Don't listen to me, I'm no expert!

    Hi ladies,

    Just trying to read back after my few days away but only managed this page so far! Tea I hope today goes well for you. Becca I hope you manage to get moved ok.

    Afm, I'm either 8 or 9 dpo and not really feeling confident but we shall see.

    Back to work on Monday after a lovely 2 weeks off - it's going to be tough setting the alarm again!! Enjoy your weekends ladies xx
