    Code - I've had provera twice this year, both 5 days worth. The first time I took it it was 8 days after the last pill was day 1 and the second time it was 5 days after the last pill was day 1.
    Hope that helps a bit.

    Ww - I'm sorry it's not looking great, hugs to you x

    PM - when's your next scan?

    I'm CD 34 today, my tracker says I have 4 days left but it's never right because of my silly cycles lol. Will just wait and see I guess! I've had a bit of spotting occasionally this cycle. Not a lot just a tiny bit when I wipe? The other thing is sometime after we have done the deed I'm bleeding? I thought it was because he was a bit rough ( sorry tmi! ) but then we didn't do it properly, just foreplay and I still bled a bit after it?!
    It's not every time but it's worrying me a little?

    ww thinking of you x
    pm got everything crossed
    mrsDavo if in doubt, visit the gp would be my suggestion. Better to check things out than hold on to more anxiety.
    Good luck sorting out the blood tests code. I have found if I ring my gp surgery and explain why I need the test and then cry, they always manage to fit me in!!!

    To whoever recommended the Zita West cd (afraid I've lost track) I downloaded it and it is lovely, so relaxing and helpful, so a big thanks.

    Without being alarmist, you should go to the GP for that. Be honest, and try to talk them into doing a smear (even if you are not due one).

    Bleeding after sex was the only symptom I had before being diagnosed with cervical cancer. That's pretty extreme, but could be some odd cells that should really be looked at as early as possible.

    Sorry I've been quite quiet ladies. I'll catch up on the lists on the weekend. Been feeling pretty depressed, but hopefully will pick up soon.

    Thanks t2d I will give the docs a ring today.

    I last had a smear in January 2011, I'm only just 25 now but as I'd had a child, and I'd had a smear in Scotland they agreed to do one down here. I will ring up and ask as I'd probably be due on next month anyway! Xx

    ETA : I've rang them, they said I am due a smear next month and they will send me out a letter. But she's made me an appointment to see a GP on 6th January as she said some swabs may need to be taken as well.

    Hi one and all!

    Congratulations Purcy !

    I've been lurking, but I'm afraid I haven't been posting much recently. After 4 and a half years of ttc, one m/c in August and 7 grand of my money in the fertility specialist's retirement fund, there hasn't been much left to say...

    Except...my AF started bang on schedule on Friday (the night of our Champagne-fuelled Christmas party..I didn't cry once!) and then my husband left to go away with work for 10 days.

    So just me and my thoughts for 10 days. And Line Eye - because what I thought was my AF didn't really get going.

    So I've been POAS/waiting/despairing/hoping for the last 4 days.

    Anyway - I cracked today after getting a couple of quite nice evap lines (really barely there) on IC's yesterday. I bought a twinpack of FRER (£10.49!). Did one in the loo in Boots.

    BFP!

    Obviously, I know that a BFP doesn't always mean a baby at the end, but there won't be a baby without a BFP, and here it is. It's early, early days obviously...and you're the first to know. My husband is overseas and out of contact until the weekend.

    I hate to be the one that hardly ever posts and then comes on here with a BFP. I know how hard it is hearing about BFPs, when things are at their bleakest and success seems so far away.

    Anyway...good luck to everyone (as for me, I can only pray this one is for keeps.)
