Emma - I know exactly how you feel. I am not sure how long we can go on either. The emotional roller coaster is excruciating & only those who have to take this path know. Every minute of everyday I think about ttc. I can't see my life any other way than with at least one child though. I really want 2 but can't see us going through this again if it eventually works for one.
We have decided to try hrt fet next cycle. I am praying that I don't react to the progesterone like I did in my stim cycle. If I do then I am not sure what we are to do if this next cycle doesn't work. My dh really doesn't get it- he actually said surely you can deal with a little sweat. He is not the one waking up 4 times a night drenched & not getting enough sleep because of it. He has done his job & now the embryos are in the freezer waiting for my body to behave.
Good luck Faye, Juniper & Sarah4kurt. I so wished that I was in the tww with you - but I as am so glad I stuck to my guns and cancelled this cycle.
Williever - so sorry about your mum. My mum really doesn't understand either & I am finding it easier not telling her stuff anymore. I only tell her after things have gone wrong.

All done - embryo thawed well however 1 of the cells died on thawing however grew back before implant was done so they are wrapped with the quality and my lining was perfect so FX

Williever, great reply! Why are our mothers like that? Mine is similarly unsupportive (when we first started IVF she said we shouldn't do it because it's "too clinical"). Then she got her nose out of joint when I stopped including her. We'll have to make sure we don't do the same in 20 years' time...
Curtysgirl, sorry to hear you're having a bad time. Hugs to you, hun. We're here if you want to talk about it.
Faye, yay! FX for a quick and successful 2ww!
Afm, have been a little short of breath since yesterday afternoon. Not sure what's going on since the idea of (mild) OHSS seems a bit crazy when I only had 2 eggs (maybe 3) and I've never had a problem at higher doses (and up to 7 eggs). It's not as bad today, but I'm keeping an eye on it. Doesn't help that I've gained some weight recently, so might just be a coincidence (and a warning sign that I need to lose weight!). I've actually made some good diet changes this week (ie haven't had takeaway every single day), but still a looooong way to go... Speaking of, I'd better go sort out dinner and will have to duck back out when DH gets home to buy some food to cook tomorrow...

Fertility treatments, appointments with FS, my surgeon and the clinic plus terrible bouts of depression have lead to me taking a lot of time off work.
Today they sacked me, knowing full well what I'm going through, they kicked me while I'm down. We may have to cancell our holiday which is supposed to be in 2 weeks time, and it looks like no more stim OI/IUI cycles as we won't be able to afford it now. I'm nearing the end of all I can handle emotionally and I'm afraid I'm going to end up in a loony bin.
Sorry, selfish rant. I'm so glad I have you guys. I really do apologies, I don't want to be so depressing.

Curtysgirl I'm so sorry to hear that. Does the clinic have a councillor you could talk to. I hope things turn around for you very soon and we are all here for you!
Curtysgirl, that's terrible! Are you eligible for any Centrelink benefits? Are you getting some professional counselling to work on the depression? I hope you find your dream job very quickly and that this will turn out to be a good thing in the long run.
That sux curtysgirl. I can't believed they sacked you at such a time I'm your life, no leniency xxxxx look after yourself and know that something will work out eventually just get thru it one day at a Time .
Oh curtysgirl I am so so so sorry that has happened. I wonder if they can do that legally??? Do you feel up to contacting legal aid and seeing if there is something they can do to help??

Thank you all for your kind words, it does help, it really does.
I'm going to contact the fair work ombudsman and find out my rights.
DF said we can still go in our holiday and we have enough money saved for one stim oi/iui plus a couple of mortgage repayments etc. he is so wonderful. But I do have to find a job fast so if anyone knows of anything in Perth northern suburbs, please let me know.
I love you all and thank you xxx
*stalking* curtysgirl i am so sorry, i hope fair work can help xx your df sounds like a wonderful man. i hope everything works out xx we are all here for you if ever you need us xx
Good luck with everything Curtsygirl, sounds like you have a lot in your mind at the mo! I hope all works out for you and that you get to enjoy that holiday!
Kbudgie - congrats on the bfp! Hope you are feeling good!
Juniper - good luck with iui, your kind words have helped me heaps and I'm booked in for that appt this weekend!
Sarahkurt - good luck with your clomid!
Afm - cd6, take last clomid tonight, blood test on Tuesday and hopefully iui Wednesday or Thursday, maybe even Friday. I am focusing on relaxing, lots of BDing, acupuncture on Saturday, fertility yoga on Tuesday and visualising a nice juicy egg, meeting a big healthy sperm and setting up home in my lovely healthy womb! As well as sending positive vibes all your way!
