Yeah they will just have to have been trying for at least 6 months again before they will. I'm not going to mention chemical as I don't want to hold it up. Have you head when your IVF is?

They said August and should receive a letter June and I rung them last week but just got the lady on reception and she was pretty vague on it but said should get letter in next couple of weeks so I'm hoping its soon! Apparently the funding manager is away til the 20th so I'm hoping that's what the hold up is !

It seems so crazy that you need to be trying without success for so long before you are eligible for any sort of specialist care. I guess otherwise demand would be higher than the system can cope with, but it does still seem like a bit of a cop-out to me. I remember my doctor telling me after my second miscarriage that I'd need to have one more before I would qualify for any sort of specialist checks and thinking it was crazy that I'd have to go through that heartbreak again before any investigating into why I couldn't hold onto a pregnancy would occur. Thankfully I was able to carry DS to term since then, but the thought of going through another MC terrifies me. It took all my willpower not to get a pregnancy test at the supermarket on Saturday - I'm CD 24 and 8DPO today and it's gonna be a looooong week, I can tell.

Any of you ladies have any particular ways you cheer yourself up when AF arrives? CD27 for me and I'm feeling particularly crampy and emotional - temp started to dip down this morning as well, so I expect the dreaded AF to arrive tomorrow :-( Feeling particularly fragile this month as I went out to dinner with some play group Mums last night and one of them announced she is due with #2 in December. I feel AWFUL having to fake happiness when I hear someone's good news, wishing it was me that had the good news - such a terrible feeling coz I am actually happy for them, but equally sad for me. So I need something good to treat myself with this month.

For those that use OPK's, how many times a day to you test until you get a positive? I used to test once a day (before DS was born) and always got a positive the first time I tested, coz I was so up to speed with what was happening with my cycle. But now my cycle is all different and I haven't had a clear, definite positive OPK for the past couple of months that I've been using them again, wondering if it's worthwhile testing twice a day. If you test twice a day, what sort of time of the day are you testing? I usually test around 2pm....

Rin007 I would also like to know this. I have been trying to use these and also haven't managed a positive result! I work 8hour days though so can't really test consistently. I usually test when I get home at 4.30pm

It's tricky aye AJBird? All about timing, as with everything in this babymaking game! I guess there's a chance that I'm missing the surge by only doing it once every 24 hours...but then maybe I'm just doing it too soon in my cycle. When I was doing it before DS was born, I used to have to test at work - it was so weird trying to do it sneakily in the ladies bathroom in the office, I dunno how I managed it!
