Hi Buliej & Dutchie.

I had an appointment with FS on Monday (my second follow since D&C complications). Looks like the antibiotics have sorted me out and bleeding has now all but stopped.

I asked FS about Estrogen Priming Protocols - unfortunately, he didn't go into any detail about it but did say "we could start tinkering with other options" for me. I suppose that was his way of saying it's worth a shot. I also asked about DHEA and he usually has refused point blank to prescribe - but this time he seemed more open about 'tinkering' with it. He said to do one more cycle at same protocol and if that didn't work - start experimenting with EPP and the likes of DHEA. I'm sorry I don't have too much info to share from him - he was not really in the mood to discuss it in detail on Monday's visit (don't you hate it when you feel like your bothering them with your Q's).

I won't be cycling for at least another 6 weeks or so - need to see out one normal period. I'm also still waiting for the cytogenetic testing results to come back - to see if this sheds any light on latest miscarraige. We had had karotype testing done when we embarked on IVF and both DH & I had normal results.

DH and I also went to an Adoption info night last night. Geez, I thought IVF was a challenge...the adoption process is as arduous (2-3 years) and is no guarantee either. It's given us some more thinking to do though. It REALLY shouldn't be this hard should it...all we want to do is share love and laughs and life with a child (or two or three)...how is that too much to ask? It's so unfair - especially when you hear there's 7,500 kids in Qld who for all kinds of reasons require foster care - because their parents can't/won't look after them. Sad hey!

Buliej, thanks again for all that info - it's really valuable!

Dutchie, how are you going?

Hi to everyone else - hope everyone's well!
