    Jasmine, I feel so sorry for you. There is the other option I have already PM you. Hope you can receive it.

    Thank you Kel. and I am happy your appointment went well today.

    Juniper, it is a good point I never thought about it, thanks for your concern. For some reason we did not TTC this month.

    Jasmine, I'm so sorry to hear your lining is still no cooperating. I had really hoped it would behave this time. Are you going straight into the gonal-f (since it sounds like you're still baseline)? Did your FS tell you your AMH number? Sometime low "for your age" isn't too bad. Lol, of course, mine is low for a 45yo (and I'm only 37), so mine's pretty bad. But I've been reading a lot of discussion lately between DOR ladies on another forum, debating whether there really is a correlation between low AMH and low quality. They seem to think (maybe denial?) that AMH is just about quantity and that it doesn't necessarily mean it's all doom and gloom on the quality front. That said, I know how devastating it is to be told your number is low - I found out this time last year and it took 6 months for me to really accept and move past that bad news and to be ready to confront it (ie resume treatments).

    Ugh, this has been a week of baby news for me too - Monday night my sister sent a pic of her first u/s (8wks), then my FB newsfeed exploded with the royal baby news around the same time, then Tues morning I was woken by DH phoning me to warn me that his sister was sending messages announcing she's pg (15wks and guess how long ago they got married... oh, wait, just 3 months!). I want the next announcement to be coming from this group, okay?

    Thanks girls for all your comforting words and hugs.. It means a lot!

    Juniper, Yep my level is pretty bad. Low for a 45 year old and I'm still under 30 (just)! I am still baseline so was told to start the higher dose of Gonal from yesterday.

    Started accupuncture today and it has made me feel a little better about things. The acupuncturist is going to email my FS and recommend that I be put on prednisone. He also gave me a list of things to do such as increasing protein and electrolytes etc.

    Will BBL for more personals.. Just on the iPhone atm xx

    Jasmine I'm curious to know about Prednisone. My FS recommends as standard during fresh and frozen cycles but I had a reaction to it and he said to stop. But I'd hate it to be a reason why my cycle would not work! Did he say what it does?

    Bunny- My FS called me yesterday and said he will put me on prednisone this cycle. He said that it helps with implantation as it suppresses the immune system and stops the body 'attacking' the embryo. Are you able to do a FET this cycle or do you have to wait out a cycle?

    Beestrong- I'm glad you have decided to go with the lap. Good luck.

    AFM- Started taking low carb protein powder yesterday as recommended by my acupuncturist along with omega 3 and iron tablets.. Will be interesting to see if it makes a difference. My FS has also agreed with the acupuncturist and will be starting me on prednisone. Fingers crossed all of this combined with the 250iu of Gonal will get something happening. Just waiting for Monday for my next scan..

    Sounds like a good plan Jasmine. Fx it does the trick and you can do your fet.
    I had meet with my fs yesterday. My lining hasn't shed enough and he said my ovaries are too active still. So he wants to scan me and do bloods again tomorrow morning to see if things have settled but he thinks I may need to rest for a month
