    Shaz - sorry to here you didn't get as many fertilise as you were expecting. hope everything goes well with the transfer on Wednesday. i'm so glad you've been able to get in to see Dr Sacks - hopefullly he can give you the answers you need. hope you're feeling a little better

    Jo - hope your IUI went well today. we're looking at late next weekend or just before valetines day for our first IUI at this stage - so just as you're finishing your TWW i'll be starting mine!

    Summer - i know what you mean about DTD - lately it seems a bit of a chore - know some of it is related to the synarel spray, but more than that is the fact that my self esteem has plummetted (even lower than before) since we found out about my problems... poor DH is brilliant about it, but i still feel like i'm treating him badly (which then makes me feel even worse......).

    Hi all,

    Sunnysummer - sorry you're feeling so down atm & trust me we have all felt that way at least once or twice so we do know how you feel.
    Unfortunately there is no easy way to feel better, I have come to the realisation that I just have to be thankful for what I do have in my life (rather than what I don't have - which I know is hard) like a wonderful DH & family & my health.
    There are so many people worse off & I think that's what gets me through but of course everyone is different.
    Even though you think there is no point for dtd I think you should really try & make the most of it & just really enjoy each other's company cause let's face it when you do have your baby there wont be alot of couple time.

    Shaz - sorry the number wasn't what you were after, fingers crossed for Wednesday for you.

    Well IUI went well today, was pretty much like a pap smear except they open up the cervix quite a bit, they then put in the cathider that has all the swimmers & put it in.
    Sounds so easy & basic doesn't it?
    However the lady told me not to get my hopes up though!
    Apparently 95% of sperm were all moving rapidly & well so fingers crossed.
    The sperm sample was interesting, so impersonal but it had to be done at least I got to go in with DH.
    So I go for a b/t in 2 weeks to see how we went.

    Have a great weekend!
    Jo
