Thanks Angel Babies...that's encouraging to hear...and thanks for the support everyone here.

It helps me feel less alone in my journey and my anxieties and all the little ups and downs along the way. I must admit IVF, even this first STIM cycle has been harder than we thought it would be. And it was a surprise when DH's sperm count wasn't great and we had to use ICSI. We ended up here really because I have lost my right tube after the ectopic and the left one is in bad shape, so I have a little transport problem!
We always thought, like so many, we'd just decide to have a baby, and not long after that, it would happen. lol
