    Thanks so much ladies. Just got home from appointment. Progesterone test showed that my levels are quite normal but the GP was still concerned about my short luteal phase. Unfortunately DH's sperm count was low so she's given us a referral to go see a FS. She said to just go chat with him, see what his plan would be, the costs involved etc and then we can make a decision whether to start with him right away or give it more time. DH and I have agreed we'll go chat with him asap and see what lies ahead before making any decisions...

    Thanks BekZ. Well I've made my appointment for Tue 25th Nov. Still a while to go. Am hoping we can work some magic before I go!!! Am also so nervous about approaching my work to get time off for all my potential appointments with the FC because I don't want them to know I'm ttc. The FC is only open Mon-Fri between 9 and 5 which means I could be taking a lot of time off work to attend appointments and my bosses get so narky about taking time off. Is it even normal for a fertility clinic to only be open Mon-Fri. What if my ovaries are on a different time schedule?!?

    Hi Jaxi

    Great to hear you have some news and can now start working towards a solution! But who knows, the little magic may happen by itself!

    I looked at my charts and my spotting also starts at 9 DPO so sounds like I'm in the same boat as you. I had never heard about low progesterone levels so will do some more research. In the mean time we're taking it slow. Previous months we were BDing every 2 days around O, but now I will give it a rest and BD once a few days prior to O. Seemed to have worked for a lot of other bellybelly ladies! If I have no success I will make an appointment with my GP in the new year.

    Good luck to you & hubby on your TTC journey

    Great news that you now have a starting point gorgeous. Bummer that you have to go to a FS cause I know you wanted to do it yourself but like you said anything you need to do to get your very much deserved baby. Keep us up to date gorgeous.
