Firstly trubabe - sorry to read about your mum. I hope she is OK
Emerald - guess what - you can add me to the hall of fame! I can not beleive it and am still in shock. I got the BFP today and my reading was 400 and something ? I was so overwhelmed that I can't even remember what it was. So its 4 weeks now and I need to book in for the 6 week scan in the first week of Jan.
I was terribly emotional early this morning and had no idea what to expect. Almost like I had given up. So its still hard to beleive we have finally made it, 2 EPU's, 4 embys and 3 transfers later. With still 4 in the freezer for way later on I hope!
I have not been so familiar to most of you this time around but thank you to all of those who have been in here for a while with me for all your support. I hope to see you all wherever I am going really soon. And to the rest I don't know so well I hope your waiting time is short ladies - we all deserve it.
Hmm - still shocked and lost for words.

I called the clininc to get my number again... now that I can take in a bit more information and all!
My level was 478 - pretty high hey! So they are not monitoring me, the nurse said if I want to I can get another BT next week to check it but they feel there is no need and next is just my 6week scan.
Coral thanks - I can't beleive it. I wonder when it will start to sink in. Its nice to see an old name and it looks like you are doing well from your signature. In fact you and I had very similar rides since TTC since Aug 08. Looks like we can ride the next wave together still.

Have not been around for a couple of months but logged in to see your wonderful news!!!
Congratulations, may you have a wonderfully happy & healthy 9 months
Trubabe, I'm so sorry she has to wait until next year to get started with fighting it. I'll keep her in my .
Afm, my transfer was cancelled this morning. 4 of the embies had started dying overnight. The other two hadn't grown in the last 2 days... In the embryologist's opinion they had zero chance of success. I guess AF will be here sometime next week (hopefully earlier rather than later)...
My plan for the start of next year is to pursue the endometriosis angle. When I asked my FS about it before, he said there was no point investigating it because it wouldn't change his treatment protocol (since we were already doing IVF). Now that we can't afford another IVF any time soon, I'd like to do something about reducing the excrutiating pain I get every AF. I don't think my FS does anything other than IUI/IVF (retired from other aspects), so I'm not sure if I should ask him for a referral to someone who'll do it or whether to go to a GP. If I go to a GP I can maybe get started earlier (FS doesn't return from holidays until 25th January).
Other than that, since the embryos arrested after day 3, I'm going to talk DH into starting acupuncture (or at least the supplements) to improve his sperm quality. His chromosomal analysis said they were fine, but maybe there's something they didn't test for that the eastern medicine will treat? And I've told him that once we get past New Years we're both going to be going on a diet. Until now he's refused to reduce his soft drink consumption, but I'm not putting up with it any more.
Sorry for the long post, I just feel better for having a plan and I'd love any feedback you may have or suggestions for improvement.
