    N2L - awwwwww big hugs to you, sweetie. I am sorry . I hope you have had your giant big cry and a nice little scoff of chocolate to make yourself feel a little bit better. You always do amaze me with your strength to pick yourself up and do back to back cycles - I honestly don't know if I could've done that. Good things have to come to those who wait and I think you have waited far too long already. What is your plan now?

    Saff - I pretty much had cramps most days from transfer so I am quietly hoping that yours are onto something. When is your BT?

    Maruschke - thanks so much hon. Yeah, I was quite surprised with my numbers so maybe we may be in luck and two cooking. How is your cycle going - you must be about at the business end of stims? Good luck to you chick.

    Thanks for all your kind words, lovelies! It has been sooooo nice to be able to give immediate family good news for a change When the clinic rang today, they were so excited, all the nurses there wanted to talk to me and they were going to ring the one on a day off to tell her which was nice but I have to go and see them tomorrow to get another bt form so am guessing will be getting a few hugs as well. I have often wondered how much their jobs must suck having to give people bad news too often but I guess days like this make it all worth it.

    If you girls don't mind, can I hang around until I've had my next bt? You can't get rid of me easily though cos I will definitely be stalky stalking

    N2L- are you BTing today? Any signs of AF? How are the supplements going? Presuming theres no surprises coming in the BT, once AF comes I find I feel better, its just the days before her arrival its the pits. I know i told you off for proclaiming you were out on 11dpo but I'm about to do the same thing- you can tell me off too

    Melissa- feel free to hang around with us for as long as you want, we need heroes to worship Have you got any symptoms yet? i think mine last tiem took until 5 wks to kick in. Have you got a ticker yet? Wishing you the most boring, normal 9 months ever- you deserve it!! Glad the clinic were celebrating!

    hi maruschke- good luck for scan today, hope your EPU is on track!

    afm- well, 6dpo5dt and getting big fat bfn still, no symptoms, so starting to accept I will be doing another FET next month, at least i will get a break from clexane which has turned my stomach black and blue, running out of room for spots to jab!

    Hi all

    Just sticking my head in quickly. Not much to report....Had blood test this arvo. Just a formality really. Will get the official result tomorrow. I stopped the clexane and pessaries a couple of days ago so should get AF any day.

    Still supplement stuffing, as well as eating protein galore. I bought some whey powder today so protein shakes here we come!

    I would love to be able to wait for a month or two but I guess I will go straighten to another stim cycle....
    Hope everyone is well x

    Ps. Saffy, 11dpo is faaaaar too early to test

    Official BFN today in the form of phone call from clinic. Got my period overnight so today I am CD1.

    I just had my first dose of a uterine tonic prescribed by the naturopath....BLUUUCCCGGHHHH

    Gimme an injection any day

    So here is my new daily regime -

    30 gm of protein included in each meal
    Low gi carbs
    1 multivitamin with selenium (from naturopath)
    2 high strength coq10
    4 high strength fish oil
    5 vitamin d tabs (will drop this down to 2 when my levels improve)
    2 royal jelly caps
    Berocca performance
    2 anthogenol tabs (grape seed extract)
    1500 mg metformin
    Lecithin
    20 ml uterine tonic

    Hopefully it will help...

    N2L - to you hon. Sounds like you have an awesome plan in place for the next few months though - go you! Ugh, those naturopath concoctions are FOUL! I got one for DH when we found out the extent of his swimmer quality. I think he had one dose and refused to take more. While I religiously downed my nasty, rotten one twice day. We are soooo much tougher than guys Holy crap, girl - you are one tough cookie - fingers, toes and everything is crossed that everything you are doing now makes a huge difference.

    Saffy - yeah Saffy, 11dpo is wayy too early . Is the clexane really ouchy? Call me really really weird, but I was always quite proud of my bruises!!!!!! My little battlescars, I guess! DH did my jabs so its not like I was going out of my way to get them cos that really would be weird . I have a few little symptoms now - I am like a little pig cos I want to eat all day long (and the worst part is, I keep telling myself I can eat a bit more now, so I will be as fat as a pig before long!!!!!), boobies are getting sorer by the day and am soooooo tired. I'm quite literally either sleeping the whole way home (1hr) or falling asleep at 8pm. BUT, bring on the symptoms, I CAN"T WAIT!!!!!

    Me - 2nd bt tomorrow. I actually feel really relaxed about it so I'm hoping my subconscious knows what its talking about and my numbers will be rising nicely

    Thanks Melissa!

    Hoping the supplements will help too! Can you remember what was in your uterine tonic? Did it help?
    Make sure you update us on your BT tomorrow! Good luck x

    n2L- sorry Af appeared abut at least you can move on now and get into tip top shape for your upcoming bfp! I will be following your lead when I do a stim. xx

    melissa- great symptoms! Very reassuring. BT will go well i can feel it! We will see you soon in palttc thread lol. Yers my clexane spots hurt, i have massive bruises covering my stomach and they are sore to touch- bugger. What dose were you on?

    afm- still bfn so resigned to AF arriving this weekend, had heaps of cramping last night at work all night so AF can come NOW please and put me out of my misery! I am dreading Af, will she we be heavier due to the aspirin/clexane? I really hope not. What was yours like N2L? At least i got my medicare refund so we can afford another FET. Have a great day everyone!
