    Ooh, I just can't stay away when tequila is mentioned!

    If AF shows up next week, I may just have to get a bottle. I love tequila, although I haven't had it in years :D

    AAAAARRRGGHHHHH!!! I F***ING HATE MY JOB!!!!

    So they are trying to send me away for 3 months. It's not sunny, in fact; quite the opposite. It's got tiny beds and is HORRIBLE! Which would also ruin my sisters wedding, finishing my degree and gets in the way of buying my house.

    Needless to say, I've said NOPE! We shall see what happens tomorrow..... !!!!!!. ugh, Lord give me Krispy Kremes and my bed.

    First ov test today, there was a faint line but not as dark as control so know I've not ov'd yet. Dtd anyway as per SMEP :A

    I'm not a tequila fan but there's a half bottle of vodka waiting for the weekend, which I can have since I've not ov'd yet :) last month I did still drink on my two week wait but just cut back a bit. This month my sister's hen party is in my 2ww so I guess I'll be doing the same (luckily she's not a big drinker/partier - much less so than me lol - so there's no big nights out). Hopefully the hen party will prevent me testing early as I'll be away until a couple of days before AF's due.

    Jobatch - argh sounds stressy, hope you get it all sorted x

    Rinroo - sorry to hear that and all the best x

    Lulu - hope your AF gets a move on. Actually, I hope you're actually preggers but if not, I hope AF hurries up so you can make a dent in your tequila :rotfl:

    Navy. It is highly irritating. I'm feeling a bit more relaxed this morning, but I know work has been playing on my mind quite a bit recently as I've not been sleeping well, and generally quite stressed by it. It's not good, and I drink it is massively affecting TTC, both from my health and that I'm not home for 5 days out of 7 every week; and often a lot more too.

    But I can't do anything about it either!

    Having such long cycles drags everything out so much, wish they were 28 days!!

    This. Waiting for ovulation is so frustrating when you don't know if it's going to be three, four or even five weeks after CD1 - not to mention getting far fewer chances than if cycles were regular :mad:

    Feeling rotten this week, went to see the doctor on Tuesday. Though sympathetic about both the mc and the PCOS diagnosis, she was very adamant we can't expect any medical help for at least another year - and since I have successfully conceived, albeit I couldn't carry it even to 5 weeks, they might decide we need to wait 2 years from then. :eek: I do understand that kids are a privilege, not a right, and we all know the NHS is stretched at the moment, but given PCOS is a confirmed condition that's known to affect fertility, I had hoped for a bit more support . . . Ho hum.

    Jobatch, that's rotten. Hope you can get it sorted with work and can stay in Blighty for the foreseeable!

    Rinroo, all the best to you x

    Thanks lottielou and cullean. I was told 1-2 weeks but I am leaving it until Monday to of received an appointment and if I haven't had anything I'll use my private insurance. There is an excess to pay which is why im avoiding.

    All this tequila talk belugh!!! Bad experience at New Years a few years ago, can't stand the smell :-) give me a g&t any day, or a glass of wine, or a cider.... And the list goes on!

    Black Ribboner That must be so frustrating surely they should make exceptions when someone has a condition known to affect fertility!! Have you tried reflexology at all? I only ask as I have recently started. A colleague of my husband swears it helped her conceive so thought it would be worth a try. I definitely feel more relaxed, she comes to my home and does it. Not had the desired affect yet but still early stages.
    Recently married and loving it x

    I know exactly how you feel. I have pcos too and We spent 14 months trying to get our bfp (in the time i had a total of 5 cycles which were 100, 43, 170 and 70 days!), a week before the fertility appointment , on our fifth cycle, we got our bfp, which unfortunately resulted in a missed miscarriage at about 10 weeks- i haven't bothered going to the GP as I know they will say as we did get a bfp that we need to wait longer, I'll probably go back in August when it will be 2 years of trying in the hope thEy will refer me. It is frustrating though, but im just trying to keep myself busy! sending you hugs.x
