The Trials & Tribulations of Trying to Conceive when its just not happening (12m+)

Derby2

Woohoo WW that's good news...does that mean you'll be triggering tonight? I know what you mean about getting so far...I expected to fail at every stage! OTD is 1 week today but I have a feeling I will come on before that. I may do a sneaky test on Thursday because it is our first Christmas night out, but we'll see.

Hugs PM. Your body really doesn't want to play along, does it?

Thanks Sew-it. I would dearly wish to try and convince my brain that I could be one of those who's sure AF is coming only for it to never come, but in my realists head I know there are just far too many things pointing against it, and I've been in this situation too many times before. I'm now at that horrible stage where I just wish AF would hurry up so I can grieve (sorry-may be a bit too dramatic, but YKWIM).

I still think IVF after Christmas sounds good...I think I would be put off having to do the injections at awkward times; I only had bonfire night as an issue, but I can imagine Christmas would be a lot more tricky! Relax and enjoy yourself!

Hi all!

Well AF turned up today, evil cow! That said TTC has been on the back burner this month as I have been waiting for an MRI appt in relation to increased prolactin levels spotted by my FS on my last few bloods.

I have the MRI scan this Thursday (28th) and then the meeting with the Endocrinologist (pituitary specialist) on 13/12/13 (Friday 13th eek!). Until the reason for the increased Prolactin is known, I am in TTC limbo, but hopefully in a few weeks time I will have a plan of action, be it medication or an op.

I hope you are all ok, unfortunately there are far too many names I recognise.... In the nicest possible way xxx

Hi, I left a message on the answer phone on a Saturday morning and they phoned me first thing Monday morning. If they've not phoned you still ring them at 8am tomorrow or all the spots may get filled up for this cycle.

Ignore that - you have your appointment. You made me recall, I have to watch the DVD and read the leaflets before Wednesday. Best do that now.
