    Hi.

    Sorry girls. I've been so reluctant to post my news here b/c I don't want to anyone to feel discouraged. Yes, as some of you have read elsewhere, it sadly hasn't worked. At my 7w/3day scan (Thu 30/7), one very healthy sac and a fetal pole was clearly visible but no heartbeat. The fetal pole measured 6w/6d in development. I returned Monday and there was definitely no heartbeat and fetal pole had begun to break down. I had a D&C yesterday. (I just find for me this helps me to move on).

    The Thursday scan result was a total shock - given that my HCG levels were seemingly tracking along perfectly and even pointed to a high probability of twins. I wasn't expecting this that's for sure.

    Thanks for all your messages and kind words of support - they are consoling and I know many of us can really empathise with each other because we've unfortunately shared the same experiences.

    I'm taking it a day at a time now and won't be making any decision on where to next, until the fog in my head clears a bit.

    Hi.

    I just a had a very quick catch up...

    BulieJ - Congratulations! That is just the best news to read. I'll have everything crossed for you that all goes smoothly! Wow! That really is awesome news!!

    Dutchie - Sorry to read about your cycle. This journey is so unpredictable. I agree with Sara, if the FSH level is low - jump into the antagonist. My FS this week said told me that FSH levels have more to do with response rates to the fert drugs than it has to do with egg quality - this gave me added hope. So starting on a low base, should theoretically provide a better response. I'll be for your success on this TTC ride and especially for low FSH levels!

    BDT - So good to read that all is going well for you. I was so hoping to join the twins club with you! Who knows...maybe next time for me...dare I wish for too much!

    Girls, the other forum is my usual posting ground. I continue to post here for the High FSH updates, but will check in everyone now and then on everyone.

    Thanks again for caring!

    Hey,
    Just thought I'd post a quick update that last cycle was a bust and we missed out on a TF again but we will be ready to jump back on the rollercoaster in September, estimated start date at this stage is the 6th.
    AF arrived in a timely fashion (30 days) which is good as I've just come off the back of a long, stress filled cycle so that was encouraging. I've had a day 3 FSH test this morning and will post results when I receive them. I normally test on day 2 but as that was a Sunday, and the pathology lab was closed, it had to be day 3 instead.

    Tigga- I hope that things are getting easier for you, I'm glad you have been able to take some YOU time and do some things that you enjoy and pamper and nuture yourself. Take care, thinking of you.
