Jaxi - I'm so sorry that your cycle got cancelled, I hope your FS will have so much information now that your next cycle will be perfect!!!
Rob - Great News, good luck on your EPU!!
Mindhugs - Excellent fertilisation rates!!
Bella - Great going with the injections, hopefully you wont be stimming for long!
MellMell - Congrats on the not smoking, i know how hard it is!!
Jodes - Good luck with the IUI's. My friends fell pregnant on their 5th IUI. I think it is worth trying if you are patient enough. We did 11 IUI's before we gave up!
Big hugs to everyone else!!
Well Kim had her EPU today and out of 7 follies she got 6 eggs. The big one had an egg in it, but it wasnt really good. The scientist called it a brown blob really. So out of 6 we have 5 mature and ready for ICSI. We have to call tomorrow at 10am to find out fertilisation rates. We are really really pleased with the outcome. It could have been alot worse. So 7 follies down to 6 eggs down to 5 mature. Not bad going. Hopefully they will all fertilise and we have 5 embies tomorrow. The scientist said its not often that you get 100% fertilisation so we will be happy if 3 or 4 fertilise. Even happier with 5 tho!!! Kim is a little bit sore, but not sore enough for her to take panadol or anything.
Jaxi- Sorry to hear your cycle was cancelled all the best for your next one. Stay positive.
Mindhugs- Hope you little embryos are going strong. All the best for this cycle.
Jodes76- A big warm welcome to you, I have only been on here a short time and so far everyone has been fantastic, I wish I found this site earlier. All the best for IUI.
Bella55- Hope all is going well with your cycle.
Mellmell- Congrats on getting to the 1 week mark, keep it up, it is not easy to quit smoking with the stress of IVF, but stick with it, it does get easier.
CP77- Sorry to hear your not so great news but for you.
Loops12- Hope all is going well for you.
xxRobxx That?s great that transfer will be 24th hopefully I will be just behind you. Will be thinking of you, hope all goes well.
Twomums- for your little
AFM, I am in the monitoring stage for a natural FET. I have had BT's the past 2 mornings and have another one tomorrow morning. This is a little strange for me as my past 2 FET have only ever had 1 BT on day 11 and then on the embryo transfer. Clinic did not say much this afternoon other than to return in the morning. My levels from yesterdays test was LH=7 and the other reading was 700. Can anyone shed any light on these figures?
Sorry if I have missed anyone out.
to everyone on here.

I'm certain this issue of IVF and the Medicare Safety net will be all over the press shortly. There's no way it will slip under the radar!!!
JBM - fingers crossed for you.
Lani - good luck with this FET cycle. You start to feel like a pin cushion after a while. My FS told me that when we do our FET we can expect several blood tests to pinpoint ovulation.
Twomums - gosh that's all sounding great. Kim did really well. I always focus on getting big numbers. Fingers crossed for your little embies.
Jaxi - so glad to have you back. Sounds like your FS is making a good decision there. I think it's much better to have everything in good shape for a cycle.
Loops12 - I hope your AF comes soon (never thought I'd say that to anyone....wink).
Have a nice day everyone. Looks like rain up here in the Vegas.
Just a short one. I am absolutely devastated at the news of the Safety Net. As it is WITH the SN, we don't know how we are going to afford IVF. Without it, I can kiss my dream of a family goodbye. It is just not fair, why do these things keep happening? We have NO other choice than IVF. I'm writing to all on the list and sending it out to all I know. Not that it would do any good...
Sorry guys, hate to be a downer but this has just ruined what was supposed to be a good day.
