Just a reminder to all: all LTers love seeing a fellow LTer achieve that longed-for BFP, and we all find hope in one of our own having success in this difficult journey. But please remember that there are those who cycled with you who may not have received good news at the end of their cycle. Please do not post baby/child/pg tickers or pg related signatures (eg blinking BFP icons) etc in this forum out of respect for them.

As it's easy to forget to remove your ticker, please be advised that we will remove it for you if it's posted in here.

Hello to everyone and sending lots of love and positive thoughts to all who are currently cycling. And to those who are in between cycles hope you are managing to stay sane while passing the time.

I have only been popping in every few days or so as I was getting a little too BB obsessed. Big congrats to all that have received a BFP this month - i think we are up to about 4 this month if i am correct.

AFM - well after what felt like the longest 2 weeks of my life i finally had my day 14 scan this morning and everything seem to be fine so i am all booked in for transfer on Friday. Feeling very excited and confident about this transfer - not sure why just a feeling i have. We are definately going to transfer 2 this time which is exciting as well.
Anyone else on track to have a transfer around this time???

Hi Molly girl,

Umm in answer to your question possibky. No idea. I am doing an FET this month and having daily bloods starting Monday. So quite possibly I thik that would be 2 weeks since my day 1 of AF.

But as I am new and only had 1 stim cycle and now this to be honest I have no idea.

Hey Aleenta how is everything going hun .. I hope we are in 2ww together again and then double BFP's aha ...

AFM where in SA are you I am up river about 1 1/2 from Adelaide.

Take care everyone and bring on those BFP's

B2B - I just had my first experience with IUI and AF came and I had the exact same thing - i never used to get heavy flow or any pains nor did i have AF for long and after the hormones I have this time had all of it - long, heavy and a lot of pain. It sucks when you get a BFN after doing everything but I am positive one day soon we will get our BFP!
Take care

to everyone

**Aleenta** · February 15th, 2009, 03:55 PM

Duthcie - GL for EPU tomorrow - hope all goes well and you get lots of lovely eggies and rest up and nurture yourself

Mollygirl - hoping we are close in cycle times and hanging out in 2WW

Rob - fingers crossed and hoping we are in 2WW again together

Hiya Sara

Hugs to Loops - it is like the double whammy - BFN and bad AF action pains and stuff - look after yourself

AFM - well waiting to have second scan on Tues after having increased Gonal F dose - hoping and praying my lining is getting thick and fluffy and inviting!!! Also have a pimple the size of a small country on my chin - revolting and massive, it's gotta be the drugs. I never had such a bad pimple even in my teens....Oh the joys of IVF!

Hugs to all

Thanks

Miss Magpie ... 450 !!! Wow .. Lots of lovely fat follies with that dose I presume

Ella's - I met a lady yesterday who went through Monash Richmond, and was very happy with them, so I am sure the satelite clinic will be great as well, good luck with your cycle

BRING ON THOSE BFPs

**xx Rob xx** · February 17th, 2009, 07:23 PM

Evening everyone,

Well I round out today we are going natural, so it's all up to me, no drugs, just me and little "George" Sheesh the pressure. I guess the positive is that I will found out where my body is at.

I do have a question though, should hubby and I still DTD as per normal or abstain totally. What has anybody else done. To my knowledge we are putting 1 back so what's the chance of twins?

Take care and bring on those BFP's xox to everyone.

Hi
Yes I am going through Monash IVF Gippsland. Through Dr Talbot and he is fantastic as is the nurse I am seeing down at Sale for all our IUI. Not pregnant yet but I am very confident they will get me there. And they are just so comfortable and lovely to deal with. I have not had any problems at all.
Hope that helps. Goodluck
