    Pretty sure the best way to get my BMI down does not include eating a nutella and marshmallow pizza. :rotfl: Still, I've done a lot of running about today - getting a new sofa tomorrow and freecycled the old one so had to get it into a fit state to go to its new home and shift things around a bit so there was a clear path to the door.

    Bewildered, I'm in Scotland and I know here the regulations are that neither of you has children. It seems to be different in every area so is worth checking further. If you know the name of the clinic you're being referred to, it might be worth giving them a call and checking their criteria.

    Sorry about the BFN isla.

    Peonie, sorry about the delay. It's so annoying when that happens. Why can't AF just show up when we want her to?

    PM, did they say why you're not allowed surgery? Seems a bit strange when you might benefit from it.

    MrsDavo - do you want to be weight loss buddies? I promise not to eat any more nutella pizzas.

    Hi bewildered I didn't have any blood tests in the same month so it's not essential to do both in the same month. Unfortunately my CCG also doesn't fund IUI/IVF/ICSI if a couple has any living children. Different areas have different criteria, Infertility Network UK has links to every CCG's infertility funding criteria. I've not heard of people being referred across CCG boundaries.

    Thank you for website details - it confirmed that my trust does not offer it but trust doctor mentioned I could be referred to does. Only question now is children. Im going to do my 21 day bloods this cycle and 3 - 5 day bloods next cycle next due to christmas getting in the way

    Code no just told we must continue on the path were on. Just seems crazy its taken 4 month to get one egg and still no second ov. It's pretty draining bleeding so much and injecting for months on end.

    I can imagine how frustrating and draining that must be.

    Thanks code and PM, honestly I shouldn't have tested. I really don't know where the burst of enthusiasm / hope came from other than feeling under the weather for the last fortnight. I think I was just hoping after 2 more friends posted fb pics of newborn / scans.

    PM, you must be beyond frustrated at this point. Massive hugs to you

    Sometimes that happens and you just think its your month and need to test.
