Hi all you lovely ladies - wow there is so many of us in here, I actually had to take some notes whislst reading all your personals. But thankyou for making me smile, it is something that my DH says that I don't do too much of anymore.

Brooke2550 - just wanted to wish you all the luck in the world tomorrow for your EPU - wow I just couldn't believe - 20 eggs that is fab !!

Liilmiss - happy for you that the lap went well and hope that you are resting and getting some pampering.

Abbie - hope that your EPU went fantastically (is that a word) well yesterday, was thinking of you and sending positive vibes so hope that they worked.

Neptune - good luck for your transfer on Saturday, sending you some sticky vibes.

KellyD - all the best for your scan tomorrow and here's hoping that you can get a firm date for your transfer. As for that sniffing, I hate that taste down the back of the throat and always always wanted to wash it down with a lovely glass (or two) of red wine

JBM - sending you lots of positive thoughts that this is 3rd time lucky for you, so GOOD LUCK for your FET on 13th.

TLO - welcome and all the very best for trying to "naturally" this month. I can't believe that you have been TTC your little one for 9 years - you are truly an inspiration and have actually made me just that little bit more confident about trying again.

Ruth - good luck with the acupuncture and your scan tomorrow also.

Muppity - congrats on your blastie on board - you go girl and get us a BFP, sending you lots of sticky vibes.

Wishingbaby - I hope that your BT went well today and also hope that your little nephew is doing OK.

Smithy - I just love reading your replies and personals, you make me laugh.

Bel - good luck with your jabbing

Paul - good luck with your sniffing and waiting for AF, it is such a ***** isn't it, when you want her to come she just doesn't and when you don't there she is and even earlier.

Rach - hope you are going well and enjoying the acupuncture.

Mrs P - I can't really answer your question about needing synarel because you don't ovulate normally. All I know is that synarel is used to stop your normal cycle to allow the FS to control it via the drugs, ie Gonal F (FSH) and then the trigger releases the mature eggs, perhaps some of the others can shed some more light. I can't believe that you are going through all of this plus doing PhD seminar at Uni, wow, you must not have any time to yourself. As for telling family about needing IVF it sure is a hard thing to do, my mother actually took it really rather well and is very supportive, it is my MIL that I have problems with in that she doesn't really understand why I can't fall pregnant naturally. I have now given up trying to talk with her about it.

Azzrenae and Jodes 76 - welcome and good luck to you both.

Baby dreamtime - hope that your follies keep on growing and you have some lovely eggies for EPU next week.

AFM - well I am on day 7 of a trying to conceive naturally cycle. As we have to wait a month before seeing the AF, I thought we would give the old fashioned way another go. Then I am not too sure if I will do another round of IVF or not. It will be number 4 for us and well just don't know if I can do it all again, the sniffing, jabbing, hormonal ups and downs. So today I went out and purchased an Ovulation Prediction Test kit and have been checking my BBT and mucus. So here's hoping, you just never know.

Take care everyone and GOOD NIGHT
