    Mrs P - so sorry to hear about your BFN. I hope you are doing ok xo

    Emerald Star - hanging out till Wednesday when I will finally have a set plan. I don't think it matters which protocol we are on. As you say the goal is the same and while the treatments may be a little different, they are essentially the same.

    Babytruj - waiting till Wednesday to find out my full results and next steps. I have had a couple of goes at IUIs and was a bit nervous at the though of IVF.... but we have now come to terms with it, because essentially we really want to start a family and we are willing to do what ever it takes.....I am now actually really looking forward to it and the promise it holds. Besides it can't be that bad thousands of women are willing to undergo it every year. Good luck with your treatment, if and when you are ready to head to IVF, I am sure everything will fall in to place for you.

    Hi girls!!!

    We moved house and I just got back on the internet today.

    We have our first natural FET tomorrow. I suffer from blood clots, and so tried taking aspirin to assist things. Turns out I am allergic to aspirin. So fingers crossed no clots or this FET. Has anyone heard of alternatives to aspirin for clotting? I read somewhere about Apple Cider Vinegar, but prob too late to begin taking that for this FET.

    Come on little blastie stick!!!!

    Hope you are all well and will be back in here for personals shortly.

    MrsP, looks like I'll be joining you for another stim cycle too. We're keeping our one snowbaby on ice. I'm taking the next cycle off and aiming for EPU in either July or August.

    Mrs P and Juniper: huge hugs to you both. Sorry you didn't get the result you were hoping for.

    AFM: AF arrived yesterday.....i now have a month off before we look at defrosting the little ones! DH and I had a long chat to FS the other day and have decided to only transfer 1. We've got a nurses appt for July 1 to tell us all about frozen emby transfers and then it's a bit more waiting until next AF arrives! pfffffft just do it now already!!!!!!!!!!

    Mindhugs - It may be a little late for this cycle but your FS should be able to prescribe Clexane which is a drug they use for people at risk of Deep Vein Thrombosis which is pretty much a clotting problem.. Do a search on Belly Belly and a reckon you'll find some interesting info.. Good luck...

    And Good luck to everyone else cycling at the moment..
