But please remember that there are those who cycled with you who may not have received good news at the end of their cycle.

    Oooh me first for Dec!!

    Possums - wanted to send you a big hug. Xmas is suge a horrible time with infertility or after loss. Not that keen to celebrate this yr myself either. Bring on a happier 2009 I say!

    Saph - great that you can see your FS so soon and know exactly what you will doing next

    Molly - 4 frosties.. thats fabulous!!

    BabyDreamtime - So good that yu can start meds sooner and not clash with xmas. A new year EPU has got to be a good omen!

    Me - All 14 of our embies were suitable for biopsy today ! I am amazed!!. Nurse said the lab was going to be busy with my babies all day! ET at around 1pm tomorrow and will find out results of PGD testing when we get there. There's got to be some good ones out of 14 doesn't there?!

    Hello lovelies,

    Just a quick hello to my fellow LTTCs and ACers.

    Meredith - congrats on your wonderful 14 embies! That's great.

    For me, I'm on the meds for my first FET cycle - expecting transfer around mid december and keeping very busy with work and home - which is great. I don't get in to post often now, but I do think of you often.

    Take care,
    Ruth

    Ruth, great to hear from you, and good luck with your first FET in Dec, I really hope it is the one for you. Hope this will make a great New Years Eve BFP.

    Possums, hope you are having a great day

    Meredith, wow, 14 is great, I hope your ET goes well today and you get the information you were after with your PGD

    Saph, I third that, praying for a BFP for us all

    To everyone else, happy hump day, hope you are all well. xx

    Hi girls

    Good luck to everyone. A quick 'me' post.

    My cycle was cancelled today.....my follies this morning were only 2, and my E2 has dropped to 1200. Feel very sad and confused, don' t know why this has happened. Will see FS tomorrow for some answers

    neptune - I'm so sorry - is there any reason why you can't DTD on your ovulation day so that you take advantage of the 2 that will be released...

    hi girls!

    smithy - hope you're doing ok
    mrs m - not long now...!
    jbm - you & i are definitely going to be TWW'ing together again! i'm having another scan tomorrow, and think i will be triggering tomorrow night (FET hopefully Tuesday?) I feel really positive about this one...i'm so glad you do too! how exciting that it is going to be your b/day as well! BFPs are on order for us both for christmas
    ruth - good to hear from you! good luck with your Dec FET
    Neptune - I'm so sorry, I hope you get some answers.
    meredith - great results!!
    saph - hiya!
    that girl - good luck with your Dec cycle
    buliej - i hope you're doing ok

    afm, looking forward to my scan tomorrow and then (hopefully) trigger tomorrow night. a question for you girls, has anyone also tried naturally before a FET cycle? i'm worried that if the thaw fails then we will have wasted the month? but then again, if the thaw goes well, we'll put 2 embies back (and then it would be a bit scary if we'd also BD'd for a possible third...) i'd love any thoughts on this.

    Hi everyone

    Mels - not sure, I think I would be BDing to optimise chances. The law of averages says that you wouldn't get three but I guess you never know!

    JBM - woohoo! Good luck with your FET!

    Thatgirl - GL!!

    Ruth - GL for FET!

    Meredith - how is the fertilisation going?

    Hey to anyone I"ve missed.

    AFM: Well, after my IVF cycle was canceled on Wed, I saw the FS yesterday and I have a new plan! He thinks that my dose was too low in the beginning, as my E2 was also on the low side, with the result that I had only 2 follies grwoing. He said with the right dose to begin with, more follies are stimulated. Live and learn, I guess. Will start a flare cycle in January with double the dose of Puregon! I'm feeling okay.

    Good afternoon girls!

    Ruth - Good luck with your meds and this cycle. Keeping busy is a good way to keep your mind off it all.

    Thatgirl - WELCOME and good luck with your cycle

    JBM - Good luck with your FET. Glad your feeling good and positive. Lets hope you get you Birthday/Christmas wish

    Mels - Hope your scan went well and you are able to trigger tonight. Good luck!

    Neptune - Glad you were able to get some answers. Sounds positive!

    Baby - Have a FANTASTIC time in Bali, Im so jealous!!! Hope you come back relaxed and refreshed!

    Meredith - Hope your ET went well and hope you get plenty of good embies

    Sarah - The 15th isnt too far away now!

    AFM, DP and I are trying naturally this month and Ive been using an ovualtion test so as to give it our best shot. Never used them before so has been interesting. It looks like the "surge" may be either tonight or tomorrow as there was a faint line that appeared this morning. So we will be busy, busy tonight and tomorrow.

    A big hello to everyone else. Have a great weekend!

    Cheers,

    Tania
