    Hi all you lovely ladies!

    Sorry, have been MIA since DH got home from PNG! Have been lurking when I get a chance, I apologise that I'm still not up to speed with everyone.

    Emstar - so sorry to hear about the chem preg, they totally suck, sometimes I think they're worse than things just not working at all. DEF grill your FS about any blood tests you can do - my chem preg was caused by ANA (most likely). I got ANA, ACA, thyroid antibodies, lupus, Factor V Leiden, all the STI's and haemotology done before we started, for which I'm very grateful to my FS.

    Trubabe - so sorry to hear about your mum. Take heart that there's lots of great treatments out there, like bj*81 said. My MIL is a breast cancer survivor, she's been in remission for 8 or so years now. And I can't believe your IUI, you poor thing. Hope you've recovered well. Its all happening at your place at the moment, isn't it!? And the silly season, to top it all off... Hang in there, girl.

    AFM - still shooting up for IUI #2, had a scan on CD9 last Friday with a 18mm follie, then went back for another on CD12 Monday - follie gone! What the?! Another 15mm one had developed in that time, on the other ovary... I just don't understand my body. The 2nd one is taking its sweet time, I'm in for my 4th BT tomorrow to see when I can trigger

    Better go, DH is in go-mode, getting the house ready before Xmas! Have a good night ladies, try and stay cool!

    Trubabe I know this sounds odd but I think that is good. Do correct me if I am wrong. I think that sounds like it may be early enough for treatment. I have been not working for 18 months but am preety sure not that much has changed.

    I really do hope this is case for all of you. We are thinking of you all and have you in our prayers. xx

    Trubabe the fact it wasn't there 12 months ago is a positive. And yes I knew it meant it would grow quickly but I was relying more on how early they found it.

    I have found a PDF on it, hopefully the info from that helps.
