myturn - stick with it. Sometimes our bodies lose more and sometimes less. The key is sticking with it. I'm finding now that the habits are helping me slowly drop weight. So slow that no one but me is noticing:-( Its hard work mentally. Ive had wine today.....Its ok. I'm human.
Sorry for not keeping up the last couple of days, still recovering from my lap
AFM - we will now try naturally for3 months, not holding too much hope but you never know stranger things have happened! No longer than three months though cause if we do have to do another stim cycle than we want to do it this year so we are still on the safety net and also we don't have to pay the excess again for the hospital. So...besides doing the dirty everyday, what else can we do to increase our chances of getting in in the right window??!! almost feel like I am going back to sex ed at school
Beau- I'm so sorry your BT was not better news.. Big squishy hugs honey. it's so cruel when a cycle doesn't work. Fx that your much awaited BFP is only just around the corner xx
Kel- Yep you gotta be in it to win it!! GL x
MyTurn- Well done on the weight loss honey! Every bit of weight lost is a great achievement and a step in the right direction x
Williever- I have experienced the same discomfort a lot while BD around O.. But I only O during medicated cycles so put it down to the meds.. X
AFM- Has anyone experienced rapid weight gain while on Progynova? Jumped on the scales this morning cause I'm feeling awfully bloated and I have gained 4.5 kilos since my EPU last week! I'm only a tiny build to start with so that's nearly 10% of my body weight...
Waiting for EPU/O/IUI/FET or just something to happen!

Kel, you could try acupuncture if you wanted to be actively "doing something". Otherwise, just lots of "adult time", especially in your fertile window, and keep up your folic acid, etc.
Juniper- How are you feeling today? Hope your sinus thing is not annoying you too much.
Kel- As juniper said maybe try acupuncture. My sister had accu and some other 'Chinese medicine' stuff while waiting for her FS appointment and ended up with a natural BFP after 3 years TTC.
Well I just called the clinic about my rapid weight gain and they said it is certainly not normal. They think maybe my dose of Progynova is too high for me so I have an appointment for 8am tomorrow so they can sort things out.. Fx my lining is starting to look better at tomorrows appointment..
Acupuncture won't work miracles, but it can definitely help. I started after we had done 6 IUI, 3 IVF and 1 FET. I had NEVER had a BFP at that point. Second cycle with the acu we got a natural BFP. It ended up being a m/c, but was still our first ever BFP. We have spent almost 5.5 years in total TTC and I've had 3 BFPs (2 natural, 1 IVF) - all three of those cycles, I did acupuncture. I've never had a BFP in a cycle that didn't include acupuncture. It could just be coincidence or the acupuncture could be helping just enough to get us over the line...
Just make sure you find an acu that specialises in fertility, otherwise it's like having a GP do IVF - they may know the basics but not enough to help you properly...
Jasmine, let us know how you go. I'm feeling fine, thanks for asking. Nose is a bit dribbly, but not out of control. Didn't have the chest congestion feeling this morning, so that's a welcome relief.
I agree with Juniper I ttc for 3.5 years and the first bfp I had was with acupuncture which I mc only to fall pg again 4 mths later with acupuncture and had ds3. I totally recommend
acupuncture but with a qualified fertility acupuncturist
Juniper could you please put me down as cd1 today please to be totally honest not sure if today or tomorrow is cd1 but I don't think 1 day is going to make much
difference. We dtd on Monday night I had iui yesterday but I had a very bad headache and sore throat yesterday so only did iui but will dtd tonight just in case. I have
got to the stage where if its ment to be it will happen this month i'm not expecting too much but am looking forward to ivf next month which I think will give me a better
chance to get a bfp I hope fx.
Beau- I am so sorry to hear that, I was waiting good news from you. Sending a big hug xoxo..
Juniper- I decide not to take Melatonin from today. I reduced to 2mg, last night at 3:30am I was still awake. My nurse told me it has insomnia side effects, if I can't sleep, I should stop it, I was hoping this can help me to improve my egg quality, but I am so disappointed I can't take it anymore. Hope Melatonin can help you with good quality of eggs and get pregnant this time.
Just wondering how long it will take for af to arrive. I stopped all drugs yesterday after the news. Going on holiday this weekend so praying the terrible days come before then. I always seem to have holidays after disappointment - so depressed at beginning of them
Kel, I'll PM you because I'm not sure if I can post it publicly.
BeStrong, thanks for sharing that. I'm sorry to hear it was stopping you sleeping.
Beau, it depends on where you're body's up to. It could start almost straight away or it could be a few days. I hope it doesn't wait for your holiday to start.
I've done acupuncture for two cycles and both of them
"something" happened... First was a missed miscarriage in the end, and then there's the most recent cycle which wasn't really a positive, but wasn't really negative either.... It's the only times I've had anything 'happen'
If anything, it makes me feel better and like I'm doing "something!!!" So....
