    Morning all, hope everyone is having a great day.

    Janet - hope your acupuncture is relaxing today and AF arrives on time so that you can get into your FET.

    TL - so exciting that you have EPU tomorrow. I will be tonight that you get lots of eggies that all fertilise.

    Bel - good to hear that you are feeling somewhat better. GL with FS appointment tomorrow. My FET cycle was artificial due to my cycles being almost non-existant. Perhaps they could help control timing etc with artificial cycle???

    MeredithD welcome back to the TWW. Lots of for you.

    Icu21 - I started off on Clomid (3 cycles), and it did not work at all for me. Zero ovulation and I also did not feel like myself when I was on it. I then moved to Puergon/Pregnyl and this was successful in the fact that it made me ovulate really nicely, but unfortunately I did not get pregnant. So I am now on IVF/ICSI. You will get used to the injections, but to help with Pregnyl injection, take the vials out of the fridge about 5 minutes before you inject. Also, use a little ice to numb the injection site. GL with it all and ask all the questions that you can as someone in here will almost always have the answer

    Paula my friend how did the acupuncture go last night? I am a total convert now. I was so well looked after yesterday both before and after my transfer. When is your first scan?

    Possums, how are you feeling? Hope the TWW is not doing your head in too much

    Hi AB, Miss K and anyone else I have missed.

    AFM, well day after transfer and I feel nothing! It is bizarre doing a FET as you haven't gone through all that stimuation and the EPU etc before hand. When I did my stim cycle, I was still recovering from EPU when I had transfer and the Crinone was giving me all sorts of cramps etc. This time I am still on Progynova and Progeterone Pessaries, but they really aren't having any effect on me so far. I guess I should be thankful that I feel so normal, but I sort of wish that I felt something.

    Hi All,
    Thanks so much for all the replies. I feel a bit in the dark. As much support as DH gives, its just not the same as being able to talk to someone who has been through the same thing! Fingers crossed that the pregnol works.

    Janie - Thanks, you have given me hope! If I know I can O then for me that seems half the battle accomplished! I have been pretty down lately and stressing about it. DH tells me stressing wont make it any easier, which i know but just cant help it. Fingers crossed for O!

    MeridethD - Thanks for telling me that, I appreciate that would be a hard thing to talk about. I hope that the Pregnol also works for me.

    Thanks to Possums and Bel for the welcome and Good luck wishes.

    Hi everyone,

    Sorry for no personals but I'm really tired tonight. Went and visited a girlfriend who had her 1st son on Monday. I was so scared that I was going to walk into her hospital room and see him and cry. But I was so proud of myself for holding it together. I even had a big cuddle and he fell asleep in my arms. He was so gorgeous and seeing her and her little baby has given me even more strength to keep going on this TTC journey. Of course I wished it had have been me, but I just pray my turn is next.

    I'm off to see my FS tomorrow and get things organised for my next cycle.

    Hope everyone had a good day. Will chat tomorrow.

    Hugs Bel

    Hey Bel,

    Well done you! It's really hard when others are having babies...I still love the babies, but I feel a broken heart and wish it was mine.

    Well - I just did my first injection tonight - I was nervous and thought I would go to do it, then stop, go to do it, stop etc etc, but somehow I got the injection ready and put it in and away we go. I didn't even feel it.

    I just want to say what a blessing you all are. The support and love shown in this forum is incredible - people can say people don't care for each other anymore, but they are wrong. There is a bond and love in human beings that is beyond words - and it can be seen right here.

    Thinking of you all - as always!
