Taffy, my DH is completely different - he seems to want to know how everything works, and which drug does what and how long do I take it... In some ways he's been the more optimistic one (thinking that 10 embryos would = 10 kids!). I'm quite happy to just go with the flow for now, and start getting stressed if it looks like I'm going to get some ridiculously huge number of eggs. I'd still like to have them all fertilised, as I know that not all will fertilise, not all will grow to blast, and not all will survive freezing and thawing, and it seems to me that letting natural selection decide which eggs will make it that far is better than us deciding to only fertilise 5 eggs. How do we know that the 5 we choose will be the ones that can make it? It's a really huge thing to comprehend, and it's pretty much a role reversal here - normally I'm the one who freaks out and must have everything planned and DH will sit back and go with the flow. Strange.

Boo, April will be here sooner than you think! It feels like the year's just started, and we're already half way through February!

Sammi Jane, good luck for Friday! It's an exciting step, but very scary at the same time. I find I'm doing really well not thinking about it 24/7, as work keeps me extremely busy. Just remember, we've got Leah working for us as well, and I feel so much more relaxed about IVF because of that, and I think perhaps a little more hopeful, too!

DJ, those symptoms are very promising! that AF stays away for a very long time!

Willow, hope the wait today hasn't been too hard on you. I guess tomorrow is test day - not long now!
