    I'm on cd2 and since having my polyps removed in January my cycles have been 38, 38 and now 34. Should my periods of regulated by now?
    Also I have to keep trying for 6 months and have a few months left and as you have to wait a few months for hospital appointments could I go to the doctor this month in order to get an appointment earlier?

    Exciting times GTS and FP glad this round is going so well for you both.

    Congrats mrsv, as pm said, it is always lovely to hear good news here.

    Afm, af arrived this morning. Not surprised as I've been really unwell this month and drugged up to my eyeballs, which wouldn't have done a potential baby any good, but still bitterly disappointed. Back to the joys of being so hot people sitting near me can tell, for round three of clomid. Trying to start this month with a pma and relaxation techniques. Clomid has to work for some of us, right?!?

    Thank you so much ladies, I still don't think it's sunk in...
    Now to suggest to DH that maybe I should do a test without him guessing that I already have! Just popped one in our Tesco delivery for tomorrow, but don't know how I'll be able to wait until then!
    Also trying to work out what we did differently last month, but so far drawing a blank, except for the fact that I had sold off/given away a whole bunch of DS's baby bits - typical!!

    floaty - I've done exactly the same thing; I find our work toilets are a lifesaver! :p xx


    GTS - woop woop for being PUPO! :j Good luck for the next two weeks xx


    AFM - yesterday the embryologist rang to say we're down to 6 embies as two of them were developing abnormally.
    Today they rang to say the 6 of them are still growing, 2 of them slowly and are grade B and the other 4 quite fast and are grade A. ET is still on for Tuesday :)
