Feeling happy! One cycle to go!!! :-)
Interesting day yesterday. We got my hCG levels back from my blood test the day before. 6. Up by 1 since October 14th. Very insignificant, but the explanation for all my faint shadows. What does it mean?? Our only explanation is that '5/6' is baseline; my '0'. So it seems I'll always achieve a very very faint test when not pregnant, so I might as well give up testing early as it won't ever mean anything to me! Lol Who knew!! I had a long chat with DB and my mum last night. We've decided to just go for it next cycle. No HSG testing, no temping... I'm almost tempted to skip the OPKs but I don't think I can!!
I'm still going to have the blood tests that will give me my egg reserve levels, lh, etc etc but that's it. My mum said our ectopic was just unlucky. There was nothing we could do, and if it happens again there is nothing we can do then. We just need to pray it doesn't. My hCG test doesn't mean I have anything in my tube and I don't think I want to put my body through the HSG just yet. I know it's an option if I change my mind again!
Anyway the decision made me feel a bit calmer and we are both happy. Now if my AF would just make an appearance we can get on with it!
We popped over to meet our builder last night and the house looks amazing! So excited! Carpet due to be laid a week on Saturday, bed being delivered on the Sunday and the wardrobes, and I have the Monday and Tuesday off work to sort it all out. And our gardening work starts this Monday. It's all go, go, go! No wonder my AF is delayed!!
Good luck to everyone testing this weekend!

Hi uptoolate! I know! Also extremely frustrating! I'm literally always going to have to test the day my AF is due as I will never be able to rely on a faint result again. My AF still hasn't turned up. 1 week late now. Agrrr!!! It is like it is taunting me to relax - and it is just making me more anxious! lol Good luck with trying this cycle! :-) xx
