Hi everyone,

Cherie - contrats on the BFPs. Things are looking very good for you this month. What CD are you at now? I also get O pains but not spotting at O. I'm thinking that maybe what you are describing could have been implantation. In answer to your question because my m/c's have both been really early I hadn't been to an OB yet so I've just been seeing my GP. I have now been referred on & am seeing a gyno in a week and a half. He apparently has an interest in infertility so I guess I will see how that all goes.
Bun Very interesting stats the OB gave you there. I'm glad they made you feel more positive.
Pash - your symptoms are sounding very positive.
Sharon & Belinda - Extra weight can have an effect on fertility but for some reason it is only in some women. I also have extra weight on. Some doctors suggest that you lose weight before trying IVF because the weight could be the problem and you could be wasting your time. One thing I know is that bigger ladies are far more likely to end up with diabetes whilst pg. I know several women who've had this and they were all overweight. New research has found that too much trans fats in your diet can effect your fertility. I've been cutting them out of my diet for several months now but it's in heaps of store bought food and pretty much all takeaway food. If you want info on this google trans fat & fertility. You will be amazed at what you find.
Kiwigirl - who really knows how early you can tell. It's all in hindsight afterall. When I was pg I had no clue I was until I went overdue and the two months after I m/c I had myself convinced I was only not to be. I don't think the early signs really mean anything until after you are late if that makes any sense.

Well I'm CD20 now 6DPO. My CM has now changed to lotiony. Felt really tired all day yesterday but that could be my cold. Had a headache yesterday.... probably also my cold. I have been extremely thirsty but that could also be the cold. I am dreaming really weird stuff and haven't been able to remember any dreams for months but these are really vivid so I'm remembering everything. One of the dreams was my SIL telling me that she thought she was pg. Another was going to the doctor to be checked out for having too much CM (I know a little odd) and when I came out the front of the surgery a gun man held me up & I told him not to shoot me as I was pg. Oddly I've been sensitive to smells even though I have a cold and am as stuffed up as. I had to search the house high and low for a flowery smell yesterday but couldn't find what it was until I opened my washing machine & it was my laundry liquid. I've also had to shut the garage door a couple of times as it opens on to our kitchen and my DF was smoking in there & I couldn't stand the smell of smoke.... I've never smelt smoke come in to the house from there before..... a bit weird. Trying not to get my hopes up as I know it's probably all in my head like it has been the last two cycles.
