Mrs P - Posted to you in another forum but WELL DONE! Woo hoo!
Trubabe - How exciting for your puppy to be having pups. Will they be totally covered in excess skin as puppies, or is it only when they're older that they produce the excess skin?
Bronsie - I used Sharkeys herbs for about 10 months and they really helped to regulate my cycle. My natural cycle is anywhere from 19 to 32 days, so it is really hard to pick Ov etc. I also charted my temperature for 12 months which helped with Ov (although you're always a day behind when you chart) but the herbs were great. Before I started the herbs I had a short cycle then a long ccycle then a short cycle...with the short cycles the egg doesn't have time to mature before Ov, so my chances of pg were pretty slim. On the herbs I had a regular 28 day cycle. Ov was on day 13 or 14... it was like clockwork. I ordered all herbs on their online ordering system - you don't have to go to Queensland. You answer a questionnaire and then they analyse it and put together a formula specially for you. I thought it was good...in the end though, it didn't help me with a BFP as i had endo and decided to go IVF. Hope that helps.
Hi Ladies, Thought that I would sneak in over here seeing as I'm not in 2ww anymore...another for us. Horrible AF arrived Sunday night. One more frozen bub left so I've decided just to launch straight into it and start Clomid today so hopefully transfer will be early Jan.
Mrs P- I am so happy for you, that is fantastic news. Take care of yourself and try not to stress too much
Hi ladies, im also skulking over from the 2WW thread. I was having my repeat test this morning from a HCG reading of 10. AF arrived last night so now the test is just a cruel formality.
It was my first ET, and i was never told a 'bio chemical pg' was a possibility, i read on the net that there is a higher risk of it happening in PGD cases. Why did our FS not tell us that, to prepare us just incase.
I thought i would feel better once i got my period. When we had our first cycle and had no ET, when AF arrived i felt my sanity return to my head. But this time i just feel grief, i feel like ive lost something i never had. And to make things worse the blabbermouth embreologist had told me the sex of the embie just before the ET. (we can legaly know due to the PGD as i carry a sex linked disease)
Ive aslo noticed on here that ppl who have bio chem's have them repeatedly. So im really scared. Will go for our FET after the silly season. Im scared also that it wont thaw. Not sure whats involed in organising a FET, my FS hasnt even rang me.
Oh well im off for my nasty little BT.

Jaki hun I'm so sorry, I know how hard it can be having to go for the 'formal' BT when already have AF. Sorry it didn't work out for you this time, and please dton't stress yourself about multiple chem pg, it's tough on you just one month as it is. Take one cycle at a time babe I know you have the strength to do it.
Best wishes for a new year healthy PG XXXXXX
Bj sorry AF showed hun X I hope that the new year sprinkles some babydust your way too X
MrsP congratulations darling, hope that you enjoy a H+H pregnancy X
I'd love to do more persies, but I'm just trying to get into the swing of things here and remember who everybody is! I'll have to sit down thisavo and have a bit more of a read!
Just wanted to pop in and say hello to everyone, DH and I start our first cycle of IVF this month just in time for the medicare 2009, but I'm waiting for AF to show. The longest natural cycle I've had is 34 days and the longest IUI cycle was 35 days, so not quite sure what my body is up to right now but I'm becoming very impatient. First time in over 4 yrs I'm praying AF would hurry up and she wont come!
Anyways goodluck to all those in the TWW, best wishes to all those testing in the next couple days, take care XXXXXXXXXXXXx
PuppyDust for Trubabes little girl X! (hope you make it to your scan)

trubabe, I hope you're surrounding by tiny puppies by now! I also hope you made it to your scan/etc to get your own pg started!
Jaki, I'm so sorry you had to lose your little emby. I had my first chem pg in September and all I can say is take the time to grieve. It's a loss, no matter how early. I share the same fear as you of having another one, but many women go on to have a healthy pg and there's no reason to expect otherwise.
Hi to everyone else! I may not say a lot, but I'm cheering you on from the sidelines!
Afm, we had our scan this morning. I was a little surprised, to be honest. In the past I've needed 12 days of puregon before EPU. So, today being day 8 of stims, I'd expect to be around the size where it's time to start the orgalutran (~12mm). Imagine my surprised when my follies were between 16-21mm!!
So, of course, now I'm ever-so-slightly freaking out and worrying that my LH levels have already started to surge. I'm supposed to start the orgalutran tonight (any suggestions on what time? my FS didn't say) and go back on Friday. Which brings me to concern #2 - my FS still wants to do the EPU on Monday and I'm worried I'll end up with over-mature eggs.
Anyway, I'm not sure if it was the change in protocol (no suppression before FSH) or the acupuncture, but I'm responding a lot more quickly and we saw 7 decent sized follies, with possibly a few more hiding on my "hard-to-find-because-its-hiding-behind-my-uterus" left ovary. I'm just praying that we get to EPU and collect enough good eggs to do a blastocyst transfer!
Jaki80 don't feel bad no matter how prepared we think we are for the BFN it always hurts when it's confirmed. My acupunturist said that's its better to let it all out rather than carry it around bottled up cause the stress etc isn't good for your body so if you feel bad or want to cry just go ahead we have all felt the same and the pain never gets easier we just become more resilient.
Murraycod there is nothing worse than waiting for AF to arrive I too went through that last month. When we are having a cycle we pray it doesn't come when we want to start a cycle we pray it hurrys up it's a no win situation..hang in there you'll be on your way soon
Mrs P congratulations so glad that we have our first positive for the month may the trand continue.
AFM I've got 3 months off but we will conitnue to try naturally...I'm hoping with unexplained infetility that maybe it can just happen
hi ladies, yes i did make it to my scan.so far i have 2 8.2mm follies at cd9.i start fsh injections today and see FS saturday at 620am and hopefully we get the nod to do iui monday.
As for our furry little mama still no puppies yet took her back to the vet and spoke to different vet to yesterday afternoon.her progesterone was 17.9 and turns out it needs to be ten or lower for her to go into labour.they said it may drop to that by later today but didnt do another blood test.so no oxitocin for her yet.if nothing has happened by tomorrow morning maybe another prog blood test and the oxi.
