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

Peonie

WTDN - I expect you'll be asked to do your pregnancy test on the 2nd Feb. Now I need to find the pregnancy test I bought in September 2012 and see if it's still in date.

Strange to think that 5ml doesn't sound like anything, but looking at hubby's aftershave (mini 5ml things) that's quite a lot compared with what he deposited this morning.
There was definitely no more than 1ml there, and I would say more like 1/2ml if not less. It was teenie. My sneezes are wetter than that.


Oh well will have to see what the results say this time. Hubby now in huge grump as I was talking about samples rather than listening going on about a job interview he has tomorrow. Whoops better calm him down with a cuppa.

Lol, I like the thought of being some sort of infertility ninja .

Just ordered an IVF relaxation CD, hopefully it will arrive before I start stimms. Bit confused on timing tbh - had a maybe +ve opk on Sunday but thought it could get darker so didn't call it. Then yesterday I had no second line at all so am now wondering if sunday's was as good as it's going to get this cycle.

Ah well, haven't DTD this century so not going to make much difference, just like some idea of when AF might be showing up.

Which one are you getting? The Zita West one?

Do you know it's not recommended to DTD in the 2WW post IVF. If I knew that there would have been more action over the weekend in the t2d household.

Doctors have had far too much input into our sex life for the last 12 months or so. I feel I should text someone each time to get approval!

I was told nothing till 12 weeks pg! Not that that's an issue in our house at the moment (am getting bitter about the lack of sex lol).

I got this CD http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B004LYN2VU/ref=pe_385721_37986871_TE_item
as it had really good reviews.

ETA: I also found that cyclogest rapidly killed any amorous thoughts!

Oh dear. And after 12 weeks it would be too risky for me with no cervix. Sigh... anyway - probably not an issue, but at least something to look forward to (with the wine and chocolates) when we get to Feb!

I like the ET twosome thing - we're bandits.

Tea - a Zita West CD was played to me yesterday when I did acupuncture. I found it relaxing and liked her voice. I get irritated when I listen to relaxation CDs with climes so this one was definitely good. Any idea when you will start?

T2D - you'll have to find other ways to *ahem* as it will work. I had no idea about not bedding. I don't think Mr P will be shocked.

Prob starting first week of Feb peonie. Short protocol so all kicks off on cd2. Currently cd20 and usually 35ish days. Sounds bit weird but getting almost excited now...although won't be saying that when the scans and injections start lol.

Drugs should be delivered tomorrow!

Good luck TL. Fingers crossed for you.

I'm taking myself and a not too-hot water bottle to bed. Very tired tonight.
