    Mrs P, March will be here before you know it, I know you are disappointed, but it is a great idea to make sure your body is in the best possible condition to produce the best embryos. From my experience the last IVF cycle where I watched my diet very strictly produced the best embies. We will be here to count down the time with you.

    Dutchie, so glad you have joined us, and Feb will be here even quicker. Will pray for third time lucky for you

    Sarah, GL with your weight loss, sending you all the will power I can

    Kelly, welcome back, hope you had a great trip to Perth. The best of luck for your next FET and glad to hear that FS is doing a new protocol for your FET this month. Will pray you get your birthday wish!

    21, I have heard good things re menevit too. Go the boys. We are all hanging out til Wednesday so we can celebrate officially! And a qualitative hCG test detects if hCG is present in the blood. A quantitative hCG test (or beta hCG) measures the amount of hCG actually present in the blood, so ask for a quantitative.

    JBM, GL to you too, at least now that Christmas is over all the temptations are removed

    Jade, looking forward to Saturday. How are you going with AF, has the witch arrived?

    Sara, great news re your follies, crossing all my fingers for you

    Nikki, the 15th is just around the corner. I am assuming your FS will say IVF, is this what you want to do? I am so happy that we are lucky enough to be able to do this/afford it/have the technology available, just hoping it works for all of us, sooner rather than later. And always a good idea to get a SA done, but likely your FS will order this anyway. GL with your HSG tomorrow.

    AFM, I heard from the clinic early this morning, my embies are almost day 3, we have 5 still on the go, 1 x 5 cell and 1 x 6 cell and 2 x 8 cell and 1 x 8+ cell, the embryologist was happy with that, I am trying to be also (but had hoped for more) so fingers crossed we will have a couple of blasties on Wednesday to transfer. Praying praying.

    Hugs to everyone, xx

    Hi everyone

    21 - sounds like everything is going well but I am sure you will find it a lot easier to celebrate once you get the HCG count to ease your mind

    Sara - at least you have quite a few decent size follies - that sounds promising and I will keep my fingers crossed that there may be a few extra suprises in their for you!!!

    Nikki - the answer is usually IVF whenever their is problems with the tubes - good luck with your appointment

    Baby dreamtime - i too am looking forward to saturday. See you then!

    AFM - WELL I made a big decision today. I have decided to pack up my four little frozen bubs and take them back to my original IVF clinic and my original FS (i am now on my 3rd FS) I spoke to him today and explained that I don't feel confortable with my new FS or the new clinic (they are not warm and fuzzy and my old clinic used to give me cuddles) and he is really excited to have me back and said he is determined to get me pregnant - the only reason he referred me on to a FS that specialises in recurrent failures was because he was worried that maybe he wasn't doing enough for me. BUT after seeing the supposed IVF God and have him tell me that there are no more tests they can perform on me, I figure that I may as well go back to the guy I feel most comfortable with.

    So I am very excited about my decision and all the nurses at the clinic started calling me this afternoon to say they are looking forward to seeing me again (we had quite a relationship - i was there for 4 years!)

    Feeling very positive about 2009!!!!!
