You have no idea how much I appreciate being accepted for the warts-and-all BW that I am! Just experiencing some internet drama in other circles at the moment, and I really appreciate the freedom I have to vent and yell and scream and cry, and to be able to do all of that and make a fool of myself and not be judged. Thank you - to all of you.

Acupuncture went well, and I can feel the real me slowly creeping back in. The theory my acupuncturist has is that the pain I had yesterday may have been a cyst bursting. It sort of fits with the blob on the left ovary after the synarel, the trigger shot failing to work and now the excruciating pain with my left ovary yesterday. It may be one of those things that we'll never figure out exactly what it was, but she's confident it's not going to be a problem. I also discovered EWCM this afternoon, and my ovaries are sooo tender when she pressed on them, so we're also pretty confident that I'm responding to the higher dose of puregon. It seems to be a very rapid turn around from nothing to this - looks like I could have good results on Monday! I'll just be praying very hard that things continue to go well over the weekend. The whole councellor thing looks to be a bit of a bust - only available on Fridays, and only in the middle of the day, so I'd have to take a whole day off work to be able to go. I think I'll stick with talking things through with my acupuncturist, and getting the bonus of the treatments at the same time. For now, I'll see how I go, but clinic councellors aren't really an option until we get to school holidays.

Nic, exciting news on the appointment there! April 2 will come sooner than we think.

Mel, I hope all those appointments work wonders for you. This could be a really stupid question, but what is a cosmetologist? It's probably something really obvious, but my brain can't figure it out right now.

BG, I hope you get some rain. I was thinking it was hot and icky here, but we're only hitting low 30s, that 37 sounds revolting! From the forecast here, tomorrow is the last of the heat and we've got low 20s forecast from Sunday onwards... will be nice to finally get some cool snuggling weather again.

Smudge, awesome numbers there! Can you get your ovaries to lecture mine and tell them how it's done? Good luck with the trigger on Sunday - you may want an ice pack handy, as it does sting a bit compared to the other injections. Will be praying hard for great results on Tuesday as well.

I'm yawning my little head off here! I think I'm going to have to call it a night and fall into bed... but I've still got two injections and 5 tablets to take.

Good night all. Sorry to those I missed, too tired for more.
