    It was horrendous! They injected the dye multiple times and I was in the bed 40 minutes. It was so unconfortable. I wouldn't have minded so much if I actually got results! fS makes decision on what's next x

    Having a pain like that so deep within made me think of Alien... Sucks that you didn't get results :( I still not sure of mine yet, the doctor that took it said she "thought" it looked OK but would need to study them, then I heard.. zip all! My appointment with DR is 28th of June, such a long wait.

    Claire - agree about buying trousers - I am also short, so trying to find trousers that sit low, aren't too long that they sweep the ground and I can get up over my thighs is a nightmare!! I also hate how when you try clothes on they seem to fit in the shop...but when you go to wear them once bought they don't seem quite right, unless its just me. I can also find leggings uncomfortable around my stomach, dread to image what i'll be like if I ever manage to get pregnant!!

    Becca - what a cute puppy. Look forward to hearing how he settles in. I would love a pup but am out from usually 6.30 - 5.30 which is a long time to leave it on its own. Sounds like you have had a traumatic day with the test, hope it gives you some answers,

    Code love how your dog is already doing all the things you said it wouldn't be allowed to do! Rubbish that your job is stressful at the moment.

    Loulou - how annoying, hopefully AF or a BFP will arrive soon

    Tinks - hugs for CD1

    Went for my bloods today was asked what cd i am on so told the nurse who then stood there for 10mins goung day 21 means 21. Fine i reply i will come back friday. No no she replies just don't get while your here on 7dpo. I was informed by you guys n the last person to take blood to turn up at 7dpo seen as i don't have a normal 28 day cycle.

    She then shook her head and was all like i will have to write it on the form

    Why are nurses n docs so misinformed and why are you made to feel like you are wrong all the time. You really do start to questionmyself. Also told her about my 3 days of spotting to get told its not normal but you are old. Wth!!!!

    I replied with im only 30 its not like im 60 and about to go through the change. The nurse then sneered at the comment.

    By this point im getting agitated. She then goes to get my blood drawn only for none to come out. She then sat there speaking under her breath. Oh just hurry up already.

    Needless to say if i have to have bloods again i will be requesting to have them done at the hospital. I don't deserve that do i?

    Big hugs to everyone whose on cd1 or just feeling down or stressed out.

    I'm now wondering if my spotting was AF (but it was really really light) as would have been about time she was due, then again I'm also wondering if I'm one of those rare people you hear about who has a shy bean and doesn't get a positive result till later - think I'm clutching at straws with that one.

    I know I shouldn't be SS, but I think at cd 42 I'm allowed to, but I have lower back ache, and I'm exhausted all the time (very unlike me...)

    Guess I'll just wait a few days and if nothing I will test again.

    Blerg, sucks Atton :(

    I get my bloods done at the hospital, you have to take the form but then they just jab you and take the form, no questions asked. I get them done at 8am too and don't have to explain to work why I'm late!

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I won't get any results from the hsg as she couldn't get the dye to go through

    :( Becca, does that mean the tube is blocked or just that she couldn't get it to work?

    So sorry Atton and Becca. Hugs

    Welcome Newbies!

    AFM - Thankyou for everyone's support I really appreciate you taking the time to comment :) I'm feeling much better today. Bloating has near enough gone as has the pressure feeling. Have booked drs appointment anyway to check it's all normal but I'm thinking it may have been just pre menstrual symptoms. Will see next week what the drs say :)

    Atton the nurse is wrong! Glad you still got the test done. Unfortunately this is about the 100th time I've read this online, makes you wonder what they learn when they're training. Or maybe some are just thick.

    When I had mine done she said is this day21 bloods & I said yes but it's not day21 for me it's 42 (or whatever it was)and she said oh do you have long cycles & I said yes & she said fine & just noted it on the sheet.
