Hi Ali, Welcome
Ellie, hope you have no trouble with getting your time off. either way, Woohoo for only 4 weeks of work left!
Shannon, that's fantastic news about the new job..and a ncie pay rise too! Congrats
BIG hello to everyone, hope you are all well. LOL at drinking different water to the rest of the town, Blayz. My theory is I should take my DH to the pub, pretend I don't know him, "pick him up" without asking his name and have a one night stand LOL!

Yay to Ellie for making a stand for your mental and physical health.
And yay to Shannon. Pity about the wait, but you're a spring chicken - 6 months will fly by.
Ahh Nic - i think i would end up a giggling mess if i tried to pick DH up. Funnily enough we met after i picked him up at a pub - I was only 21 and i'd had a bit to drink.
Welcome Ali - i can't help you, but you have come to the right place for advice. Good luck. Stay strong too - we all have some good days and some cr@p days, but everyone here has been great helping me with those days.
I was very organised and rang the chemist to see if they could get some Syneral in for me. They said that they had already ordered one in for me as my last prescription said 1 repeat. I thought that was nice, so i went in to pick it up. As i walked out the door (after handing my $90.00 over!) i had a funny thought - if they ordered it in at the same time as my last bottle then it might have the same expiry date. Sure enough - they had sold me a bottle which had technically expired yesterday. So, thank goodness i was a few days ahead of things and i didn't need it this weekend.
Hate to put a downer on things but i thought you should know that in NZ IVF is FREE. Yes FREE. If you have a medical condition that causes fertility troubles, it is free straight away, (i.e. endo, PCOS, tubes, MF etc) otherwise if you have 'unexplained infertility' you have to wait 5 years, and then it's free too. You can even get it free if you are a single female (or same sex couple) who have paid for your own treatments that have not worked (after a certain number of attempts). I know this as DH and i have considered a move across there and we wanted to investigate our treatment options. So, yes medicare is great, don't get me wrong, but you don't even have to pay for your hospital bed for EPU over there!
Hi to everyone else who is lurking out there - lets hope we have a great weekend, with a BFP or two announced.

hi all - havne't really been posting much the last few days but have been keeping up to date with everyone's progress/posts
just wanted to drop a quick post (mainly so that Jo doesn't try hunting me down!!) - HPT this morning was a BFN - but i'm not entirely giving up hope - as yet, AF hasn't arrived, so until either she arrives, or the BT on Friday tells me otherwise, there is still a thread of hope in there!
i think it's something of a blessing in disguise that my bro asked me last night to have his three kidlets overnight - has been a definite distraction since they woke up at 6 this morning - barely even had a chance for a quick cuddle from DH after the test result.
roll on Friday and the BT so we know for sure - this waiting game just sucks...
Good luck BG. Let's hope when success is eventually yours that you don't get three all at once like you have at the moment!

hmmmm, that could be interesting - the only dreams i ever have about having kids myself - i always have triplets!!!
considering the hell we all go through to get our family, i can't say i'd be particularly unhappy having the whole family at once.... food could be expensive though - bro's kids have had cereal (two kinds each), then a plate of bacon and eggs - and the middle one (Mr 5) said he wasn't sure he was full!!! they've been here a day and already eating me out of house and home - can't imagine what it would be like to have 3 the same age full time - especially if they have appetites like these three!

I logged on as soon as i could to see whether you were making us wait or not BG. I am sorry you didn't get a nice big fat second line, but you can't give up hope just yet. I will still keep all those positive vibes up and wait for the blood test.
You'll make aunties (and an uncle) out of us all soon!

Just stopping in briefly...
I'm feeling a bit less stressed today, but I'm still very strung out. Just doing my best to keep myself distracted, relaxed and happy... so I'll probably be fairly quiet for the weekend...
Still keeping my fingers crossed for BG.

thanks ladies
jo - i'd decided if i got a bfp i was going to leave an obscure little messafe to make you wonder...
tehehe - im so evil sometimes...

Hi Everyone!
BG - Don't give up hope - When I fell with Luke, AF was due on the Thursday... I did a HPT everyday for the week leading up to it and BFN everyone including Thursday as well!
I didn't get my BFP until Friday morning, so nature can always push us to the limits!!!!
My GF (after the Thurs night one) told me I was crazy doing another one Fri morning, and I was just upsetting myself... I had this feeling that Its not over til its over..... and until AF arrived I would continue with the HPT's!!!!!!!
(I'm sure I must have almost owned shares in the HPT company back then, the amount of $$$ I spent on them that week!)
Stay positive and do whatever you can to keep your mind from going crazy with the waiting!!!!
Good Luck Sweetie xxx
Love Holly

wel, the wait is over - AF decided to show this afternoon - of all times while visiting family that we haven't seen in months! she has brilliant timing, huh? i know i should be devastated, but i think i'd already come to a level of acceptance late in the week that things just weren't going to happen the way we wanted them to
thanks everyone - looks like i'm back in the waiting game again to find out what happens next
Registered User
BG- im in shock reading your post i was so so sure you were out of here. Im thinking of you hun.xx
What a horrid time for you for her to show. are you going to still have your BT Friday? GL hun and i hope that the bleeding stops and that your BT stil gives you good news

hmmmm, i'm guessing you mean BG, not BW... LOL
have called the clinic - they didn't actually tell me what would happen if AF arrived - so left a message just asking what the next step is - i'm guessing i'll have to wait a few weeks to start again (i doubt they'd let me go through a stim cycle again straight away) - but i'm back in the unknown - and just have to take it easy and wait on instructions from the people in the know...
can't see the bleeding stopping any time soon - i'm very sore and crampy at the moment - guess i knew she was on her way - have had an upset tum today, and have picked up a cold - immune system usually disappears to non-existent when she shows - (yeah, cos SHE doesn't make me miserable enough on her own...!)
Registered User
BG - Sweetie I just wanted to send you some hugs
I was sure this was it for you to - I agree with Lou, I thought you were out of here this month
Sending you all of the strength you need to rise above this little setback... you sound like you have a wonderful DH to keep you warm and cuddled until you feel better.
Lots Of Love,
Holly

Sorry about AF coming BG.Oh damn her, she never comes when you want and then always when you don't want. Do you still have to do the blood test? MIVF makes you do a BT regardless of if AF is there or not.
As you say - now you know that you have a really good LP. Maybe you will get to try again in a months time - if your body behaves itself.
And i was so looking forward to triplets.
