    BW - how are you? Thought with you resting up today, then you'd be lurking around in here...

    BG - cross fingers that you are feeling crappy from the meds and not from the dreaded OHSS. (actually cross fingers that you weren't feeling crappy at all!)

    Karena - yay for you. Sometimes moving quickly is a blessing - less time to worry and stress. GL!

    Nic - didn't know your DH was a shift worker too? Is he FI/FO? Sometime i think it's annoying, but othertimes it is a great lifestyle.

    Shannon - Are you doing a FET next time? It sux that you are feeling a bit blue. Our clinic insists on the BT, so i knew from the start that i had to go in regardless of the outcome. Still seems like a kick in the teeth though. Especially sitting in the waiting room, wondering which one of the other ladies in the room has a BFP. Hope you feel a bit more ++ after you see the FS in June.

    I'm lurking about, Jo. Just got not much to say!

    Feeling a little bit better today, the antibiotics I've been put on are kinda strong! But my GP's theory was that there's at least two weeks before transfer, so I should be off them before I can be pregnant, and as the eggs were produced ages ago, they shouldn't effect anything at all.

    But... I'm still feeling guilty because I haven't told the clinic. I also haven't told the clinic about the prednisone, and I think I should... but I'm scared that if I do they'll have a fit and cancel the cycle. I feel like a naughty kid sneaking around behind my parents' backs!

    Generally just eating far too much chocolate and pretending that I don't have reports to write...

    Hope everyone is feeling well - or at least better than me!

    If it makes you feel better BW I am a naughty kid too. I have a crazy rash on my back and chest and tummy and i have told no-one except DH of course. I'm just 'head in the sand' hoping it goes away. It's been 4 days now. Hope it doesn't mean anything serious! I am adamant nothing will hold me up!!

    I do believe that the anti-biotics will do you only good. As long as you are off them before FET.

    I counted very carefully - even if I need the repeat course, that's 10-11 days on antibiotics. Started day 9, so should be all done by day 19-20 at worst. That's when I ovulated last cycle. If my body decides to ovulate on day 14, I'll then be transferring around day 19-20, but I'll have enough warning to not take the second course then. I really couldn't do anything else! I've been taking huge amounts of garlic tablets but they weren't really doing anything. My hot flushes seem nowhere near as bad this time around... partly this is a good thing, partly I'm wondering if the letrozole will work this time.

    I hope the rash is nothing serious, Jo. You probably should get it checked out... But I can certainly understand the mind-set - there's NOTHING going to get in the way of me getting to this FET!

    BG, hope the doc had some good news for you.
