Hi Ladies..
How exciting for you both Bel and Ruth08.. I know the feeling of wanting to get started..
Abbie - I hope your FS appointment went well.. Did you make it to the second Brissy catch up..
Mrs P - I'm extremely lucky that my Inlaws are my bosses, but that said I work with 8 guys and only one girl.. They've never known so much about ovulation before.. For me I find it too hard to hide what i'm up to and I reckon by being open and up front maybe that will help someone else..
Wishingbaby - goodluck with your BT.. I hope it gives you the result you're after..
Neptune - I hope EPU went well for you and you got lots of eggs...
Paula - Goodluck with this cycle..
Brooke2550 - Welcome.. I hope this cycle is the only one you need..
Hi to anyone i've missed..
AFM - Tomorrow is my Lap, Hysteroscopy (spelling?) and D&C.. I can't wait.. One step closer.. So far we are unexplained and i'm not looking for an answer.. Just a start.. Theory is ...If they find Endo, scarring or any other type of damage the answer is IVF.. If there is no damage we will look at assisted cycles of either OI or IUI or stuff like that.. Either way, let's get this show on the road..
Hi Lilmisshavachat, couldnt make brissie catch up cause i was out of town, so wanted to see everyone again... will have to get better coordinated next time, or maybe a weeknight?? Good luck tomorrow with lap etc, cant say i know much about it all but sounds kinda scary to me... hope you get some answers!
Bel, Ruth, Paula, gl with the jabbing n sniffn, you do sort of get used to it

AFM - I am going to meet a Dr to get some acupunture done! I am really excited. I'll give anything a try to help it. I have also heard it can be quite relaxing. Also, he is an orthopedic (sp?) Dr aswell. I liked him right away - his name is Martin (same as my awesome daddy - and he has an English accent - smae as my daddy - all good signs I think!
I have been reading all your posts and seeing what everyone is up to but get so confused with all of us in here at the moment.
Good luck everyone who is jabbing, sniffing, pill popping or taking a rest.
AFM: 3 sleeps to go until my u/s to see if the lining is good for our FET transfer early next week. Have been on progynova since last friday and upped the dose yesterday.... Am suffering the major side effect of fatigue, can hardly keep my eyes open at the moment and am ready to crawl into bed at 7.30pm each night. Such a party animal . Hopefully I can get used to the medication cause if we get our awaited for BFP I will be on the meds for up to 10 weeks.
Good luck everyone and will be back on friday to up date our ETD (estimated transfer day).
Sorry that I have ben MIA - Crinone and I haven't been agreeing with eachother in regard to my pain threshold (Devil hormone says that I am a wimp and turns up the dial a bit more every day).
Haven't you all been busy chatting
I had my transfer yesterday and got a beautiful looking hatching balstie. FS said that it was really really good quality and she was very happy with it. It was moving about heaps which she said was also a very good sign. Scientist said that they were going to freeze 3 yesterday and thought that she would have another 3 or 4 to freeze today depending on how they went during the night so I am really happy about that as well.
Hi Gals..
Just a quick one from me.. My lap went well and i'm at home being pampered by DH and mt parents so i'm a very lucky girl.. The Doc removed a little bit of Endo and found some scarring on my left tube from a previous infection.. Everything else seemed to be in the right place and I was given some lovely snapshots of my internal organs.. I have my stitches out next Monday and we'll work out where to from there.. Don't want to start IVF until January so may go for OI or similar for the next couple of cycles.. I've definitely got a doctor with a sense of humour.. When he asked "any more questions?" I asked about DTD.. He suggested I wait until we got home.. LOL.. Take care everyone..

Hi,
I had a few complications with my last IVF cycle in Aug/Sept and google led me to this forum. Reading all of your posts gave me so much insight and also made me realise that I certainly wasn't going through this alone. My ET was late August and I was hospitalised a few times with hyperstimulation and chest pains (although no one could ever seem to diagnose me) - I was so ill. In all my previous attempts, I only ever took 1-2 days of work, but this time I was forced to take almost 10 days off.
Always trying not to constantly look at signs and trying to determine if its the damn drugs or real pregnancy signs. I had my hopes up and was convinced that not only 1 would stick, but they both would and finally, I would get my happy little family I've been fighting so hard to have. Well, my count was 7 - so a BFN (altthough it took me a while to work out what those initials meant!) and I was devastated. I'm not one to cry, but this time tore my heart out. I had been so good and took it easy and well, it still didn't work. I couldn't even verbalise my heartache.
Reading this site helped and 3 weeks later and I'm on day 21. DH and I couldn't book in to see ouf FS for our FET this month, but thought we would try again this month naturally. I've re-read Better Babies and have cut out caffeine, white bread and all those processed yummy things to see what happens.
I guess, my main reason for joining and posting this is - well, 3 weeks later and I'm hopeful again. After such devasting news, I'm amazed that we are able to pick ourselves up and try again. I just wanted to express this for any of the unlucky ladies who haven't been successful this month to understand and appreciate how strong we all are in going through this. I hope "Hope" quickly returns for you.

Been a bit quiet since I first joined the thread a couple of weeks ago, but just wanted to pop on back in and say a big HELLO to you all and to thank you all for your welcome wishes.
Lilmiss - good luck today with your lap and hope that everything goes well
Hope that your EPU goes really really well for you tomorrow Abbie and also to you Brooke2550 for your EPU on Friday.
Neptune - hope that your EPU went well for you yesterday
KellyD - I've got my fingers crossed for you that your lining is good for a FET.
To everyone else just wanted to send you all a big with whatever stage you are at - sniffing, jabbing, waiting. Thinking of you all - keep on smiling gals.
