Janet - let me know how accupuncture went... I have my first session tomorrow. I am really looking forward to it and hoping that it will help with my lining
Hi Saph... sorry you aren't feeling well, but that this is your month. How great would that be if you got pregnant naturally!
Bee, I haven't had the stitch thing with puregon, but I did get very heavy feeling and bloated. I would call your clinic and just check with them.
Miss K - so sorry that the OHSS is getting worse, but hopefully there will be a little prize at the end of it
KateB - hope you are feeling well today. When do you start your cycle? Is it a short or a long one?
Possums - let us know if you have an update on your embies. I am for them
Meredith, I feel your pain about the thin lining... I will talk some more to my FS about it on Monday and will let you know what he says. I think with me he implied that I need more estrogen than the norm to get my lining to thicken, so I don't know if estrogen levels in the blood are a good indicator or not??? I am not having any BT at the moment. He just keeps upping my dosage. Started on 1 tab x twice a day, then 1 tab x three times a day and now on 2 tabs in the morning and 2 tabs at night (total of 4 per day). He just said that it is my body being stubborn (as per normal)! I have PCOS and my reaction to drugs is always a little out of kilter. GL for your scan today.
Hi to TL, BecD and Paula - hope you are all well.
AFM, not much going on with my cycle. Just awaiting scan on Monday and hoping that things would have improved. I have my first acupuncture tomorrow which I can't wait for. My nephew is going well. He had caught quite a serious infection, but it has now been confirmed that it is not meningitis and they think they caught it in time. In good news, he opened his eyes for the first time yesterday and also cried. Both very important moments for my sister and her DH.
Sorry I've been laying low this week. Had my op on Monday and have surprisingly been in quite a bit of pain and not too comfortable. FS found some endo which he cleaned up and he also drilled my ovaries. He checked everything else out and gave me a D&C so I'm apparently all ready to do another TF next month.
Was really shocked how much the op knocked me around. Have been on the lounge all week resting and relaxing. Still not able to get out and do anything but hopefully after the weekend I'll be all good again.
TG- congrats sweets...you must be so over the moon. I'm so happy for you.
Janie- Glad to hear the family is going well. Hoping your little nephew is getting stronger everyday.
I'll try to catch up with where everyone else is at..know I'm thinking of you all..
Am very emotional this week. Am just fed up with all that we have to go through to have a precious little baby..it's just so unfair. I refuse to watch the news now. Have told DH it should be renamed "tradgedy".....there is no news, only heartbreak.
I just pray for the strength to keep going on this TTC journey and for a healthy baby in my arms soon.
well firstly let me say if you are not doing acupuncture you need to try it!
it was amazing and i felt so relaxed it was like i was floating on air. it was incredible. the lady put some in for my nervous system as still bit stressed and some for fertility, i can't believe how good it was.
i've got 2nd session next thur, can't wait!!

anyone who i missed HI, sometimes i am just slack.
chat soon
JBM congrats on selling your house! I hate moving, good luck with it all.
MissK good luck with preg bt today. I really hope the OHSS settles down for you and you dont have to be hospitalised.
Janie hopefully things move quicker for you but YAY at the possibility of being in the TWW together again. Hopefully this time we will both have a great result in the end! It so cute to hear that your little nephew opened his little eyes and cried. I can just imagine how big and emotional that moment must have been for you all especially your sister and brother in law.
Possums good luck with your embies. Just remember that three is still a good number. I only had one when i did my last cycle so i would have been over the moon if i had three. Best of luck.
MeredithD hope your scan today shows things have improved and you have some bigger follies and thicker lining. Good luck.
Welcome KateB. You have definately come to the right place for wonderful support.
Saph i hope the flu goes away and best of luck in your TWW.
Bel i hope your feeling better after your op. It sounds like you are ready for a successful cycle. I know what you mean about being emotional and about the news just being all about tragedy. For me, i find the news that hurts me the most is ones where kids are involved. Especially when they are killed or abandoned by their parents. It hurts me so much because i know what soooo many of us are going through emotionally and physically to try and bring a child into this world yet its people that dont deserve them that end up with them without even wanting them!! It just doesnt make sense.
A big hello to everyone else in here Hope you are all doing well.
I start on the injections tomorrow I love this stage because it finally feels like i am doing something and progressing on this journey.
I am soooooooooooo glad its Friday. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
Bel- sorry you are at a low point today...I have been having a bad day with things and I have not been on this journey for a baby as long as you have, so I can only imagine how it must start to feel after a longer amount of time.
I hope you recover from your op soon.
Paula- it's great you are at the injections phase..i felt relieved when we got there this cycle. Thanks for the kind words about our embryos...I guess we weren't sure what to expect, and then when we got 10 eggs, thought that more would fertilise. I feel a little calmer this afternoon, trying to stay positive and glad we have those three.
Miss K- hope you are doing ok with the OHSS...and feel much better soon
Saph- I have just recovered from the flu and it sux! hope you are feeling better and good luck with the wait.
Sorry if i have missed others. hope you are all going OK.
