  • Thanks all for the replies.

    Can anyone tell me off to go to bed please. From 10 PM I am on YouTube watching cute baby videos. Making me cry.

    I need to switch it off but I can't :(

    I have developed a new form of TTC madness.... instead of line-eye, I now have spot-eye. I keep thinking I might be spotting, but realistically it's just wishful thinking and an overactive imagination.
  • Still bleeding (red with clots). Still going through the motions of taking cyglogest. I'm not looking forward to testing as I'm sure it will be BFN.

    I met some friends on Monday evening to try and cheer myself up which failed spectacularly as they used every bad cliche to 'support' me. I left early before I could start a row.

    Big hugs RG - and well done for not hitting your friends. Sometimes people really need to just !!!!!!. When is OTD?

    Lisa - CD49 today.... beyond fed up. Have dreamt about calling the hospital to arrange the first scan every night for the past 4 nights.

    Tested on sat morning lol. Not that I had the slightest hope that it would be pg, but thought it was guaranteed to make AF arrive. Guess that only works if you actually think there's some chance of a BFP.

    Will be doing short protocol ICSI. So as soon as AF turns up it's all systems go - scans and injections starting CD2.

    Apart from anything else am looking forward to listening to a different relaxation track :rotfl:. Have been listening to the down reg/pre short protocol track for a month now and am excited to hear what the stimms one is like instead.
  • Can't you see your GP and get some provera Tea? Or does that mess other things up?

    In that case Tea, can you hang about for another couple of weeks?!?
    I'll be starting stims in about 2.5 weeks.
    Ha ha just kidding, I hope it shows up right away so you can get on with it!

    What relaxation cd are you listening to?

    The IVF belief CD. It's pretty good (so far, no idea what the stimms and transfer tracks are like lol). Have been listening to it about 4-5 times a week so far. I'm sure you'll be starting before me - all my other potential cycle buddies have!

    pickekin - did wonder about that but wasn't sure I was allowed. Plus my GP is useless - if I rang them today I'd get an appointment in about 5 weeks time (seriously) so am hoping something's happened before then!
