    Gelly don't panic that it means you've only ov once, I've read tons of google stories of people getting pg with no peaks. So if I were you I'd temp at the same time.

    Becca I'd tell them you have some hospital appts and say you need cover. I know it must be a nightmare being a teacher in this situation as in most other jobs they don't need a replacement! But if they think you're ill there's not much they can do plus I don't think you need to say what it's for - I'd say you are having some investigations done that you'd rather not go into. Then they'll prob be more sympathetic if they think its something bad?

    Had lovely weekend - BBQ was great :-)

    Just not enjoying this crap weather now though :-(

    Going to see my eyebrow lady after work and her 3 week old baby :-) will get some cuddles I guess :-)

    Feels like a Monday today but at least nearer to the weekend.

    Becca I think for situations like this it's best to approach a male boss. They are usually terrified that we'll tell them about lady problems, and normally just kind of shriek "yesthat'sfinenoproblembye" and run away.

    Bless them.

    I am utterly fed up at my temps this month, they really are all over the place. They are currently in my normal post-O range, but they have been all month with some huge spikes :mad: so all I can really do is go by the CBFM. Decided to go for my 21 day blood test this Friday, which will be 6 DPO according to the monitor. I'm starting to wonder if it's my thermometer - this is the first month I've used it (previously I had one that only worked to one decimal place).

    I have just finished this:

    Been reminding myself that I have had a child - and some don't have any and he is my world. If that is all I do have I count myself very very lucky. xx

    Team lowe . If you're lurking - what was that you said about not being sure if the inositol was the miracle cure!? Perhaps it was! Can't wait to try it next cycle now! Although of course hoping I won't need to.... :)

    it may have been! basically before the mc my cycle was 35 days and afterwards they went really long, shortest was 42 days, longest was mid 70s i think and i always thought that i would only get pg again on the same sort of cycle.

    this is my third cycle taking inositol, first was 37 days, second was 34 days, and this one i tested on CD34.

    so inositol 500mg twice a day shortened my cycle and we conceived on the third cycle :) I'm going to still take it too, as there's no evidence of any harm from it and it might help the bean stick

    ooh also it's helped with my weight loss- i was really struggling with it before but I've lost a stone since the beginning of March, which is very good going considering the NY break :) so it seems to help with PCOS overall rather than just cycles. and i think the last time i looked on amazon you can now get the specific one from the studies - d-chloro-inositol - but it's very very expensive!

    Well that settles it, if AF arrives this week I'll be buying some Inositol! Looking at the H&B site you can get Inositol on it's own or Choline & Inositol. Which one did you use TL? :)

    Very nice crafts as always Tink and Samtoby. :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    I've just googled and am now disappointed to find that there doesn't seem to be much difference (in results) between this and metformin - and I've been trying that for ages!

    Grr! I was all excited for a minute then about a miracle cure!
