Hi girls,

Whoo new members to our thread welcome Alison and LionsandBears
Sorry to hear about all your losses. It is a hard choice to go ahead with ivf and pgd but it really is the best option if you want a bub using your own eggs. I went down the donor egg route but managed to find a 23 year old donor (with 2 kids) who was pre menopausal!!! (See my CRAZY NEWS below!) So now I am back to trying with my own eggs for the last time. I'm doing 24Sure my embies will be tested day 3 with a day 5/6 transfer if any are good. It cost me $3500 with no rebate but they only had to go to Brisbane.

Andie - So excited to hear your great news. I hope everything continues just as smoothly.

Babymama - Yes unfortunately since turning 40 my AF has all but disappeared for no explainable reason. I always have a nice thick lining when scanned mid cycle and I've had scans after a 24 hour af and all looked as it should so no idea where it goes . FS does not seem phased by it though I'd be more reassured by a good one I hope your results come back quick and clear.

JBear - I'm so glad the tests came back mostly positive and congratulations on a healthy baby boy I hope the rest of the pregnancy flies by with ease.

Jessir - Thanks for dropping in it is so nice to hear from girls that PGD has worked for, it gives us hope.

Hi Joe and Minnie


AFM - I'm back now from my trip up north to Mum and Dad, had a lovely relaxing time. I don't go back to work till the 14th so making the most of a nice rest before all the pgd stress kicks in. I am trying to shift a few kg and working hard on my diet in the hope it will make some difference, who knows.

CRAZY NEWS!!! - The friend who was going to be an egg donor for me back in August, who on 450iu of gonalf grew ONE egg and was later discovered to be pre menopausal with an AMH of less than 0.5 is again pregnant, without trying!!! She must be the most fertile girl ever! I am happy for her (probably happier than she is ) and I really hope she gets her little girl this time. So not sure if AMH means nothing or if being 23 years old solves everything but there your go!
