    Hi to everyone!

    So much has happened since my last thread a wouldn't know where to begin my personal responses. But can I just say that you are all an inspiration and that in my heart that I know each one of you will have successful pg, I just know it.

    It's 2.30 in the morning and it's too hot to sleep. Since my m/c last month I have made a speedy recovery and am feeling optimistic once more. I spent too long sore and sorry for myself and am now looking forward to the next chapter. DH & I have been brought so much closer these last few months, atleast a definite positive has come out of this. We will have our first FET around the New Year. I'm not going to think about it too much yet, but try and keep positive and enjoy life.

    I'm thinking of you all and hoping you each have good news to share very soon... I know I will, I just know it!!!

    Yawn back to bed...

    Question Crinone

    Hi all, this is my first time on this site, but I am hoping someone may be able to help me out with some info...

    I have just become pregnant after a frozen cycle and am on Crinone 2 times a day and it is now no longer covered under my IVF fees, so I now pay $188 per week for it and have to be on it for the first 12 weeks!! Does anyone know if there is any assistance or rebate available??

    My first pregnancy I was only on it for 2 weeks and the other cycles have not been successful so I have not had to take it for this long before, but it certainly is getting expensive on top of everything else!!

    Hope someone has a answer????

    Hi B1105,

    Welcome and a big congratulations to you. How wonderful. Hope you find lots of helpful info here on BB. As far as I know after your IVF cycle allowance of Crinone is used up, any additional is at your own cost. And I don't believe that there is any additional rebate through Medicare etc. I have been keeping my receipts however as I believe you can claim some of it back on your tax.

    I wish you a H&H next 9 months and look forward to seeing your progress. Hugs xx

    Hello ladies,

    Well I thought it about time I popped back in, I haven?t been posting very much, but lurking lots and lots and lots, I think I have read every post ever posted on BB. After my last BFN I crashed emotionally, and physically too I think, I have been doing IVF on and off for the last 12 months and had reached breaking point. I had thought that I needed a break from it all, however have found that my obsession with TTC only increased because I wasn?t doing anything about it. So I have realised that I would rather be trying TTC and cycling than doing nothing and waiting waiting. If I could have squeezed in another stim cycle this year I would have, but with the Xmas break, timing just didn?t work. So, I have seen my FS, and I have a new plan.

    Smithy WOOHOO congratulations, that is wonderful news, so glad 'operation give DH a BFP for Christmas' was a success. Looking forward to seeing how it all goes for you

    On trak WOOHOO to you too, lucky thing first time, don?t we all wish that was the case for everyone, hope you are celebrating, you deserve it, glad your 5 week BT was great

    Kelly hope your FET goes well today, sending you lots of sticky vibes and baby dust

    BecD so sorry for your news, AF just stinks. Great you have two blasts, are you going straight into another FET?

    Sunflowers (Lisa) good luck for your BT on the 19th, fingers crossed, and take care of yourself, hope OHSS stays away and that the TWW isn't dragging

    Spring wow you are up late. So sorry to hear about your m/c and glad you are feeling optimistic. Jan is not too far away, this FET will be the one!

    Babytruj I am sure you are not checking BB whilst in London, but if so Hi and hope all is well

    Dee good luck with your natural cycle, and hope you stay sane in your TWW

    Bub4me hope your embie is settling in nicely, when is your BT?

    21andTTC#1 good luck with your tests coming up, did you decide on which IVF clinic?

    Neptune how are you, sounds weird to say but hope AF has paid a visit and you can get onto your next cycle

    Bel my friend, hope all is well with you, glad to hear your ultrasound went well and thanks for dropping in, praying I can join you some time soon

    Ruth good luck with your Dec FET, hope you are feeling ok about it all

    Wishingbaby sorry to hear your dramas about not getting hold of your FS last cycle, best of luck for this one coming and hope you get a surprise with a BFP instead

    Mels glad you FET went well, fingers crossed for your BT on the 24th, 10 days to go and counting

    JodieC65 hope you are doing well

    Wouldluvabubba so sorry to hear your news, hope you are moving forward and good luck with TTC naturally, also look forward to cycling with you in the new year

    Mrs M sorry to hear about your DH's friend, I hope all is ok

    Kaydee hope your BT went well yesterday and your FET can proceed as planned

    Buliej and Possums, my heart aches for both of you, I hope you are staying strong and looking after yourself and please know that all our thoughts are with you, I don?t know anything to say to make it better but please know that we are praying for you

    JBM sending you lots for sticky vibes good luck for your BT on the 28th hope the TWW speeds by for you

    MrsP hope you are doing ok and looking forward to the new year

    Sorry if I have missed anyone, the list is very long, sending you all best wishes and praying for a BFP for us all, whether it is this month, the next or soon to come.

    AFM, I am on a natural cycle now, temping and checking CM, plus OPK, it is Day 23 for me and I don?t think I have O yet, my crazy cycles. My last few natural cycles post stim cycles have been around 40 days, so I still have a while to go.

    As soon as AF arrives I start a down reg pill cycle, FS has put me on the Colorado Protocol, I am very excited and hoping that this will in some way help overcome what seems to be my implantation issue. Everything else seems to go well for me, good number of follies, good fert, good blastis, but no BFP after 4 ETs. So now I am counting down the days?

    Love to all!
