Chellico, congratulations, great number! Also, I think yes you should phone the hospital because that sounds a bit heavy. I did have quite a lot of spotting after my last EPU last year and quite some pain, and everything was fine.

CatyO, good luck for Wednesday! Spotting is ok I think. I had that too, quite a lot.

MissB, that is really strange about your SIL. Really awful for your family. Hope your bro ok.

1MP, as Juniper said, you don't take herbs during stims, though I have always taken them as progesterone support in 2WW, but my lady kind of works quite closely with almost only IVF patients/doctors, so I feel very comfortable with it. I am on them now. As for the Coke Zero, ditch it darl. It's not benefiting you, unless you totally love it and are trying to wean off caffeine slowly? It is not going to hurt the pregnancy though, so don't stress.

AFM - good news! hCG is now 299. Waiting for that phone call was nerve wracking - my face was burning for 3 hours. It only gets more stressful from here, but I feel so very grateful for how things have gone so far, and have to say, I am extremely pleased to have been wrong about this cycle (when I was convinced nothing had happened) and that IVF can work (at least, it has got us this far for the first time ever). So if you guys don't mind, I will hang in here mostly to follow you guys. It is such early days for me, and I usually start spotting in week 5 so I am just waiting for that to start (was normal for me with my DD but not normal with my MMC). Wishing us all and

lots of love,
WW
