    You know you've got fertility problems when....

    Your letters in Scrabble are LUUELTL and your first thought is "luteal".

    1. Your letters in Scrabble are LUUELTL and your first thought is "luteal".

    2. You see the acronyms DTD and AF in work correspondence and are confused until you remember they don't stand for doing the deed and Aunt Flo.

    :undecided

    Love it and other characters to make this long enough.

    I am so PMSy. Last night I cried for no reason for about an hour and today I cried when I found out the cat who wanders around the train station died.

    Good afternoon.
    Many thanks again for even more congratulations. You're all so lovely.
    Pickle, fingers still tightly crossed for you.
    Good Vibes, sorry for the empty follies.
    Pink and Tea, that made me laugh. I'm the same.
    Code, huge hugs. It's so rotten feeling like that.
    I think I might drag my sorry @rse out for a run this evening and try and blow away some uterus cobwebs. Maybe why that's why nothing is going on in there.
    Love to all. X

    Those comments made me smile, I'm always thinking that with work acronyms too.

    Pickle and GV, sending all my positive thoughts to the universe for good news for you both, and hope the waiting passes as quickly as possible.

    I don't really have anything to report, have got a new date of 7th Nov for our next consultant appt so just waiting til then! Have just bought some CoQ supplements even though I can't remember what they are supposed to do... The daily supplement tally is ever increasing even though part of me thinks it's a waste of money, just need to feel I'm doing something.

    Code - I cry at EVERYTHING these days - songs, TV, adverts, you name it. I'm an embarrassment.

    Hi all, hope you are well and trying to stay positive.

    Pickle and GV - same from me, big hugs to you both.

    I'm an emotional wreck at the moment and seem to cry at the smallest of things. My friend gave birth this morning and so far, I've only welled up but not actually bawled - give it time, the day is still young.

    She told me when they announced earlier this year that they were trying for a fourth time so we could be off on maternity leave together - this was a couple of months after our first miscarriage - we fell again in March but lost another in May and haven't managed to fall again since.

    It's now 2 years without success so we're back off to the GP next week to take things further as I'm 36 in Feb and HB is 38 next month so really can't keep leaving it to nature and failing miserably.

    Hugs to all
    Gelly

    *quick delurk*

    Mini SewIt born on Sunday 12th Oct! Baby girl weighing 5lb 9oz at 37 weeks so just a tiny bit early but perfect in every way.

    She is worth every monthly disappointment, injection, dido cam, ec/et and failed cycle on our 3 year journey to meet her.

    Wishing you all baby dust and happiness whatever path life takes you on.
