Eve, sorry AF pitched!!!
Juno - FXFX hope you O'd and the eggie got caught.
GW - sounds like you enjoying the saliva OPK. Are you going to use inofolic?

AFM - last few days of the TWW - really don't want to test early. Dr wants me to go for bloods on Friday, 13DPIUI. I'm thinking of doing a HPT on Thurs or Friday, bloods are R144, whereas the HPT is about R22.
The progesterone made me soooo sleepy, drowsy this morning.

Sticky baby dust everyone!

Juno, still wanted to add...About that microscope: I still plan to use OPK's as well. Another thing, if you have any hormonal imbalance, low/high estrogen the tests will not work acurately. For eg. you might get the ferning pattern almost the whole cycle or never depending on your hormones. The way I see it then is that if that happens you might have identified a problem early on while it could have taken a while to pick up.

Hi Juno!!

Great to hear that your are also trying! Sorry to hear about the D&C.

I bought it dischem, I find with all these TTC parapharnalia you have to ask where to find it, since some of it is even behind the "over the counter" section. So, yes, blushing while asking for preseed, inofolic, ovulation tests!! No secret what I am planning! :blush: However I also saw it from this website:
www.getpregnant.co.za/product.asp?chk=1¶m=25
However it was cheaper at dischem (R300).

I have been battling with the ovulation tests for a couple of months too, I never get 2 distinct dark lines, only one light and one dark.

Holding thumbs for you!!! And good luck with the 2WW!!

I'm also hoping very hard for a spring baby. I have a 3yr old son and would love another.

I've been trying since the middle of last year, had a D&C in Oct and back in the saddle.

Gloei where did you get that saliva test kit?

Well my 2 week wait now starts so holding thumbs. I'm not even sure I ovulated as I didn't get one positive test. Time will tell..

Evestyles: So sorry to hear.... :( I can totally understand not wanting to think about anything "baby/ttc"!!

I am loving my saliva ovulation predictor microscope, it is the coolest toy ever!!

I am loving the pilates dvd. I have never done workouts while watching dvd before and was pleasantly surprised how convenient it actually is. I used to do pilates classes before I became pregnant with my first LG and also continued right through my pregnancy (except the first trimester :sick: ). I can see why so many fertitily websites recomend yoga/pilates as a stressliever especially if TTC.

Trying to eat Omega3 rich food since I really struggle to drink the oil capsules. I baked two whole mackarels yesterday and was SO GOOD! It is very high in omega 3.

Hi Ladyl: Good luck to you! Sorry I have no experience with fertomid. Have you spoken to your doctor and asked him about how the fertomid incluences your ovulation date?

Hope everyone has a great week!
