Mel and Kell, all the very best for today and I hope things go well for both of you.

Miss C, I think (based on what you've written lately) you are doing a tremendous job in keeping your head with the uncertainty of your cycle and with your upcoming wedding and holiday. Just remember that no matter how things pan out, there is a solution and things will tie in together one way or the other (I say this, but I know it's easier said than done).

TL, your next transfer will be here before you know it. Christmas and the new year will fly by.

Kerri, I hope Antonia's programs help you. I know she gets rave reviews.

Hi to everyone else. This thread is moving so fast it's hard to keep up!

Thanks to Sushee for my intro, and to everyone else for your kind words. If I can help in any way just PM me. I haven't sorted out a BB address yet, but will in due course.

Hi friends..

I have been referred to post on this board.. as i have just started my 1st fet cycle.. so, just pasting the content below:

My first FET is on. its gonna be a new experience even though i have had 2 fresh IVF cycles with BFN. I am on pill and lupride shots right now.. expecting to have FET during 1st week of December..
Dr. said during the scan that the pelvis area looks promising this time as there seems to be no cyst or any collection unlike other times wen always there were some adhesions (from my previous surgery), infection and other stuff..
Any tips which are specific of FET cycles are welcome...
Fingers crossed.... really hope it works this time.
good luck to all too..

Good luck, wannababy, and welcome.

I've had two FETs, but both have been natural cycles, no drugs to take at all apart from the ones I take for a few days at the beginning of the cycle to force my reluctant body to ovulate. Very different situation to the medicated FETs that most people seem to do. Not much to compare it to, really - I have never had a fresh transfer at this stage because I hyperstimulated quite badly on my first fresh cycle.

For everyone else... here's exactly what you don't want to have happen with your injections! BW's bruise. In many ways it's not as bad as it looks, but every time I sit, bend over or move in some way that folds me in half, it gets squished and hurts. You can even see some of my smaller bruises from earlier on. Did a lot better tonight, but I'm about to hand over the injecting job to DH. I've hurt myself too much and now I'm tensing up too much, which results in more hurting. Bugger!
