Met the nurse today.

[MissJuly10]

So I saw then nurse today at the new surgery, waiting time wasn't too bad, just under 10 minutes although it felt like forever! She was lovely but I felt a bit rushed though as the surgery tries to keep to 10 minute slots for each patient so even though I tried to talk about my problems with my cycles with her, I didn't get much of a response.

She basically told me to just tell the actual GP everything. Did my urine test and she said they don't test for pregnancy which I was a bit surprised about but I wonder if she meant the test she did today doesn't check... Hmm. She asked when my last period was and whether I could be pregnant and then still didn't do a hpt. Suppose we'll just bring that up with the GP.

Anyways, she said that there were no traces of glucose or protein in my sample but there were traces of blood and she said it wasn't normal and she went off and told the GP who said to send the sample to the hospital for further tests and we'll get the results by either Friday or at our appointment on Thursday.

She said my BMI is a tad high but I'm already aware that I'm getting a bit podgy so I've cut down on portions and junk and also am trying to use the excersise bike a bit more.

I feel a bit crampy at the moment so wondering whether AF is being a cowbag, especially after my cheapie tests... Though for some reason, I'm still not convinced.

All in all, it went ok, just can't wait for Thursday!

Ahh well done Miss J,

I'm really glad your getting sorted, don't worry about them not testing PG they need the GP's authorization to do that that's all.

Also a blood HGG is waaay more accurate than a urine test so your GP will hopefully go for that.

I hope your blood is nothing to worry about I'm sure it won't be, it's a good thing they're testing that though, I bet your last doc wouldn't do that for you.

If you want to loose a bit of weight pretty quick try the south beach diet, me and hubby lost a lot in 4 weeks and it's low GI which has a really positive effect if you did have PCOS, I'm starting it today so if you need any inspiration for recipes give me a shout.

I don't make diet style meals, you're only allowed 30g of carbs so for example today I've had a ham omelette with 3 eggs and some philadelphia on the side, I'm having a ceasar salad for lunch and for tea I'll make chicken wrapped in parma ham with a parmesan and creme fraiche sauce with asparagus and broccoli, I've got light babybell's if I fancy a snack or I'll roll up ham with cottage cheese and pineapple inside too.

Hope that helps.

Roll on Thursday!!

P.s any HPTs today?

Thanks Maybe, that's really helpful.

I'll have a look at the South Beach diet - sounds interesting and I actually enjoy sticking to meal plans etc.

You're right, I bet my last GP wouldn't either. In fact, I bet he wouldn't have even let me do a urine sample!

I haven't tested yet but I feel mild cramp/ache feelings so not feeling optimistic about it. If I'm honest and it might sound strange, but I'd rather get all the tests done before a BFP because if we did fall pregnant then I'd worry that they'd consider us fine and wouldn't do any tests for my cycles.

No worries Miss J,

You can still test and not tell them I won't tell if you don't

[MissJuly10]

Lol! Thanks Maybe. Ok, I give in. I really don't need to pee at the mo but I'll try and hold it anyway and try and test around half 2/3 o clock.

I'm trying to ignore the ache in my tummy at the moment, hope it's not AF but knowing my luck, it will be.

Ha ha!

I'll be waiting!!

FX, I guess you never know......

[MissJuly10]

Hmm. I just don't feel hopeful, but we'll see..

[maybe baby]

1 hour and counting!

[MissJuly10]

Might be able to do it sooner, but might be forced pee! Would that be ok? x

 

[maybe baby]

Force away lol!!

[knopk@]

I think when you go to a nurse, they cant really help thst much, they just test your urine, check BP etc. Do wait for your GP appointment and if AF is not there, ask for a HCG test

 

[MissJuly10]

Maybe - I forced myself to pee.. Have piccies but don't think I see anything.

Knopk - Yep, that's basically what she did to be honest. Looking forward to Thursday! x

 

[MissJuly10]

Pics.

[maybe baby]

Ok honest answer I see nothing on the green ones but I do see the strip on the blue one but....I see no colour.

I tell you what, I'll do a cheapie now and see what happens....

xx

 

[MissJuly10]

I could see something but wasn't sure... Roll on Thursday, can't wait to get some answers. x x

 

[maybe baby]

uploading my piccys.....

 

[MissJuly10]

LOL!

[maybe baby]

Ok, here's a cheapie I just did, still wet. Definite BFN.

[MissJuly10]

Hmm... I don't know what to think anymore. Just going to have to wait til Thursday I guess? x

 

[maybe baby]

Here's a dry negative.

Hopefully you'll know before Thursday, your bloods would come back on Friday if you have them.

If there's something there you'll have a better line by then, my HCG was only 50ish last month and that gave good lines.
