    Me first!!!!!! hehehe

    Thanks Juniper, even if the cycle is a flop I'm just so happy I'm doing something! It's been 12 months since my last cycle and at my age, that's dangerous territory! You can see I've removed my age from my sig, I feel depressed every time I look at it! lol xox

    Just posted too late in the previous thread...

    I just wanted to thank all of you for the support since joining this thread. This whole IVF journey would have been so much harder without you all. I will be stalking and I really hope you all get your well deserved BFP's very soon xxx

    This still hasn't sunk in yet!!

    Faye, with DD it didn't sink in until well after she was born. We become conditioned to expect disappointment, so it can take a while to accept that you have succeeded. Just give yourself time. It will happen.

    Catyo, GL on Monday!

    Miss.B, I know just what you mean.

    Well said Juniper I think that is exactly the issue - we become conditioned to expect disappointment.

    congrats Faye! some days i still am amazed to be a parent that feeling doesnt go away

    Had appt with FS yesterday IVF cycle with natural fertilisation booked for end of July (time to get the money together) I was meant to go on the pill but have decided to just let nature take its time then make sure i go on it to have a withdrawal bleed in time.
    she did suggest ICSI but i explained my reservations but also due to DH's HUGE count and only 4% normal morph i still think he will have ample of healthy ones once they "clean" them up to fertilise the egg.

    So i will hang out here still but not actually be on a planned cycle for 8 weeks.

    Faye a huge congratulations that's fantastic xxx

    AFM; I still cant believe it but we found the money to do 1 ivf cycle next month. I cant believe it i'm in shock and i'm so excited and
    so scared and worried that I will be devastated if it does not work. I have been doing accupunture and herbs, COQ10, vitamin d, metformin,
    elevit, so now i'm worried I have not done enough as I did not know we would ever be able to afford ivf so stupid me i'm worried. I'm so pleased I have
    you lovely ladies to talk to as we are not telling anyone and since I have never done ivf i'm sure I will have heaps of questions. I think I really need
    to take a deep breath and take it in i'm just so excited and nervous at the same time.

    Rai, great to hear you have an opportunity to do an IVF! We're here to answer all your questions when you've had a chance to gather your thoughts. FWIW, you've done way more than I did to prepare for my first IVF. I wasn't doing most of those things until after IVF#3 was a bust. (That was back when the safety net wasn't capped, so our OOP was a lot less and we could afford more cycles.)

    juniper thanks so much i'm so excited. And thanks I was worried I had not done enough now all I really need to do is lose weight which i'm now trying
    very hard to do as this is the only cycle we are going to be able to afford so i'm hoping for lots of eggies so I can do some FET's if I need to, cause
    I asked city fertility and they said a FET was around $2000 but out of pocket $500-$700 which is not much more than the double iui's I was doing.
    Again thanks so much i'm just so excited:-))
