Hello everyone, bad news from me unfortunately. AF showed up over the weekend, bummer! Really thought I might have had good chance this time too. DH has agreed not to drink for two weeks either side of O week, which may help our chances as he is generally a pretty big drinker. I went out on Saturday night to drown my own sorrows and was dancing up a storm on the dancefloor when I slipped and face ploughed the floor!! Ended up chipping about a third of my front tooth off, very embarrassing. Can't even get in to see my dentist till tomorrow either so I am feeling very low today. What else can go wrong for me? Surely I am due for a run of GOOD luck soon!
I hope everyone else is doing well, sorry for the lack of personals. Got a major headache and just want to go home and curl up in bed. Good luck to the other girls who are nearly to testing stage, we need some BFP's in here soon.
Kerry - Thanks for the info, I plugged up the courage to ring my ob, his midwife told me to wait until after the next AF - I think I can cope with that (just!!!). They didn't really have an answer to my question whether you can ovulate one week after a D& C, so I guess I have to wait and see what my chart tells me...
Also she said that I didn't need HCG levels tested because I didn't miscarry naturally. I must say, this is all new to me and I am starting to get confused as to what tests I should be having...
Good luck to you for today!!!
Claire - I used to get panic attacks years ago and I found meditation (as Satya suggested) most helpful. In fact I have gone back to it now to keep my thoughts positive for conception.
Hope the wait for your scan goes quickly....
To everyone else Good Luck for this week and for those waiting, waiting, waiting hopefully lots of distractions and positive thoughts!
I never thought that I would wish for AF to arrive! I am very impatient now so that we can get into some serious TTC! Please cross your fingers for me that it won't take me too long to be able to try again....

Well, that's good news, Penny! Hopefully you won't have to wait too long for AF. We have a Waiting for AF after M&L thread going too in the M&L forum. I'm not sure how to do a link to it but it's not too hard to find. Everyone's really supportive there and it's good to share the wait with someone!
Finally got around to chasing up my blood test results from the end of May and the answer was.... nothing out of the ordinary. So just unlucky again! I had blood tests done for clotting, genetic disorder (my older half sister had a stillborn son due to Di George syndrome in 2005, very, very sad) and antibodies, as well as a check on hCG levels - which maybe I didn't need to have done, Penny! Still, what's another vial of blood between friends... Anyway, my hCG levels were less than 2, blowing my theory about having to wait until the hCG was out of my system for AF to return. D&C was May 1, blood test was done on May 30 and AF arrived June 29...
Sorry to hear AF came knocking at your door, Timnik. and OMG at the tooth, you poor thing. Ouch ouch ouch!!! Your luck must change soon!!
Some mega squishy hugs being sent your way, Lee!
Hope everyone's having a good start to the week. I must fly - lots to do!
