Hey everyone,

Sorry to be MIA for so long and thanks for your posts along the way even though I haven't been here - have had very limited time online since last Wednesday, and was waiting today to post my news, after I received it.

Kell - I'm so sorry to hear about your cancelled cycle, hun. So frustrating that you're body is being stubborn and unpredictable. I admire you so much for dealing with that factor on top of all the other factors we contend with so well. You're very strong to cop all this stuff as it goes and keep moving forward. What a woman! :hugs:

FG - hope DH is recovering well - what a shock for you both. Very glad to hear that he's ok. You must tell him I understand the stuck-at-home factor - when DH takes the car to Melb for work I am stuck at home about 5kms from town too! Arghhhhh!! Hope you're doing ok yourself. Hang in there with the waiting for AF to arrive. Got to will her on this time round, silly isn't it? Hugs.

SP - any news on your follies? I am thinking of you and hoping for the best, sweet

Peta - keep hanging in there with the IVF, hun. It makes you want to think about options because it is so frustrating and disappointing at times, doesn't it? I've talked about adoption with DH in a couple of brief conversations here and there, but it doesn't feel like a real possibility for us down the track if needed because of the move o/s and the amount of time it would take to settle there first before I'd be able to qualify... at least that's our thoughts about. But I reckon you've got the right idea going to the info session - really good idea to be well informed about it


This morning I had my third BT since getting a beta level of 25 last Monday. I got the results at midday - my levels were finally at zero today. I reckon I can tell, because my face has been breaking out consistently for the last day or so Always get a breakout on my nose in particular when my hormones shift direction. I had to wait for the nurses to get the all clear once and for all from my FS (which took until about 5pm!) but the good news is I'm allowed to start on my medicated FET today. I start HRT today, and my first scan is next Wednesday... yay!

It feels like today is a proper conclusion to the last cycle - like a BFN that should have been, IYKWIM? I'm glad to be moving forward, but at the same time it gives a bit more of a sense of something that might have been, now that it's over. All good though

Hope everyone is well - hugs to all,

Miss C
