trigger tonight and 8am friday i have my collection done!!!!
Hi Girls,
Im hoping that i can join your thread and share my TTC woes with all of you.. have read most of this thread and can see that its been a hard and long journey for most of you...i was in the 1-6 month thread and then the 6+ thread and now i'm hoping that i can chat to you guys...
We have been trying since September 2007... and nothing. We have been to repromed and had basic checks and so far so good. I've been told to come back at 15 months if we haven't "spontaneously" conceived. Then starts the "further testing". It would be good to hear some of your stories and how you got to where you are today..with IVF etc
xo
:dance:yay brooky good luk hunny i hope you get some really nice eggies sweety and all the best with trigger tonight and EPU friday.
ill be thinking of you on monday and sending you positve vibes ok!! :dance:

Hi All,
Honeybee- Welcome to our thread!! I hope your stay here is a very short one and you move to the pregnancy thread with some of our other friends.
Lilmiss- I hope you are feeling ok after the op. At least you know now you have nothing really bad wrong with you and you can move on and get your BFP soon hopefully. Rest well.
Abbie- Was your EPU today or am I confused?? If so how did it go? If not...good luck for tomorrow.
Paula- I hope AF arrives soon. She was doing my head in last week while I was waiting for her.
Brooke- Hope trigger went well. 20 eggs....WOW!! Sounds good!!
Rach- I'm with you on the acupuncture. I love it too!!
Kelly- I hope your lining is getting nice and thick and ready for the little one to snuggle in.
Muppity- Congrats on a beautiful blastie on board. I hope your TWW is an easy one for you with a GREAT result at the end.
Wishing Baby- Hope you are doing ok.
Smithy- You always make me laugh!! I've got toind your journal and have a read. I am pretty forceful with my treatment now. IT'S MY TREATMENT is my attitude now!!
Jodie- Hope all is well with you.

AFM- day 2 of Gonal. Feeling good. Start orgalutran on Sat. Off to see the counsellor on Friday. I have to learn how to deal with all this better. I suppose like all of us, I just can't believe I'm still TTC. I WILL GET MY BFP THIS CYCLE THOUGH!!!!! Must be positive!!
Night all
Hugs Bel
Hi,
Thank you for all the welcome wishes. Reading your stories has helped me tremendously already. Good Luck to you all
Paula - For me - It's unexplained fertility , which is so frustrating. If I had a specific cause, it would still be painful but perhaps I would know and be able to deal with it??? My husband and I have been ttc pretty much straight after we got married when I was 26. Four years later we saw our first FS and have been on the roller coaster ever since. It's amazing how much you can really start to hate your body for not being able to fall pregnant - especially when everyone around you seems to be doing it so easily! Every single time I have a BFN, my husband's sister conceives. I'm really happy for her - but it's a walking reminder of how old my children could have been.
I"m now 35 and the last negative result reinfoced how desperate I am to see a positve result. Time's ticking....
But then, you pick yourself up, as you wonderful women all do as well, and try again.
Gee - this forum certainly opens up a can of worms doesn't it? None of our friends or family even know we've doing IVF, so this is such a wonderful site and I'm so pleased to have found it.
Again - good luck ladies, I'lm wishing you all well.
Take care,
:dance:BEL MY SWEET
you go get em girl yes you will get your BFP this time hunny ,you have been so patient and strong and you no GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT
i no im sick of waiting to hun but your turn is just around the corner i no it .
thanks for looking for my journal hun to it was so nice to see you /
i wish you all the best with your jabbing and look foward to seeing you UTD real soon rite lol
RITE I MEAN IT lol;)SILLY ME
KEEP SMILEN BEL
Hello ladies,
Just a few quick comments
Brooke - All the best for your EPU Brooke. Only 1 day now! Well done on such a nice little crop of eggs. I'm due for EPU next wednesday so you'll have to give me the full rundown on how you went. Are you having a general for it?
Jodes - welcome to our thread. I hope you aren't here for long at all!
TLO - big hugs to you. You are so brave and courageous!
AFM - Day 8 of my cycle now, still jabbing and sniffing away (read my blog for my latest needle blunder yesterday), all going well, still feeling a bit tired and I sooooo don't want to go to work today but I'll drag myself there. I'm super pumped about my scan tomorrow - grow little eggies grow! Oooh and I booked my first accupuncture appointment for tomorrow afternoon.... hopefully it's relaxing. I'm a little worried about the guy asking us why we went straight to IVF and didn't try "natural" remedies for DH's sperm issues first... hopefully he "keeps his head in".
Hey girls,
Just letting you know that i've changed my username from "honeybee" to Jodes...i dont need to go incognito anymore
xo
Good Morning Lovely Ladies
Brooke: 20 eggs is fantastic, at my EPU my original sanned showed about 18 eggs and they got 30 a pick up. Hopefully you have some more get bigger today and have lots & lots & lots tomorrow. Good on you and your super ovaries :dance:
Jodes: :hello: welcome to our little family. Good luck on your journey and hopefully you will be successful soon.
TLO: You are an inspiration to us all, 9 years of trying for your angel is amazing. Hopefully now you've found us we can help you get through your journey as well to your longed for BFP.
Smithy: Gotta love ya. You are the most positive, upbeat, funniest girl here I'm sure. Hope your next looooong car trip is the last one you have to make in a very long time.
Rach: Acu is great. No research to shwo the benefits, but hey a relaxed home for our embryo's has to be good. I am doing Acu right before & right after my transfer next week to give it the best chance (plus to help me relax & chill for a couple of hours).
Everyone else: :hello:
AFM: Feeling really positive today, maybe because I don't have to work tomorrow :dance:. Can't wait til the scan tomorrow, it's at 8.45 in the morning so get it over and done with nice an early and hopefully get the transfer day locked down. It seems it has taken forever to get to this point from our last transfer and I can't wait until I can stop the sniffing, you never get used to the horrible taste in the back of your throat.
Ruth- Good luck for your scan tomorrow. It's an exciting time. I hope you love the acupuncture. My acup specialist never judges...just tries to help. HOPEFULLY yours is the same. If not...tell him to pull his head in!!
Kelly- Good luck to you also for your scan.
Jodes- Hi there. Hope all is well. Glad you feel you don't need to go incognito...(that made me laugh!!)
Have a good day all
Hugs Bel

Hi Guy's
Just thought I would popin and say Hello I am a newbie and was sent here by Possums and Dusty (Thanks Guys):p
I Have got my FET on Saturday and am a bit nervous about getting the phone call not to come in because my embies didn't make it :pray: Does anyone know what day they start defrosting (if thats the right word for it) if I am to have the transfer on Saturday not sure of the process.
Love reading all the stories on this thread I have only heard alot of negitive stories about FET so it is great to hear some positives as well Thanks Possums and congrats to you to:clap::clap:.
Looking forward to reading some more stories.
:grouphug::crossfingers::loveshower:
Azzrenae- Welcome to out thread. I think every clinic does things slightly differently, but usually embies are thawed the day before a TF. I was told this is so they can make sure they thaw properly, then keep growing. I don't know why or where you have heard a lot of negative stories about FET's. I tend to think that if a little embie survives being frozen, then thawed, it has a real will to become a little baby!! So so so many women here get pregnant with a FET cycle. I'm glad you have found us. We're always here to offer support. Ask all the questions you need. Someone always has an answer!!! All the very best.
Hugs Bel
Hi Azzrenae
Welcome, if you are doing your FET on Saturday you can then join the girls in the TWW Thread (Two Week Wait) as everyone goes some kind on mental during that time... overanalysing all our twinges, body changes etc, so always good to know you are not alone.
I'll hopefully be in the TWW some time next week with 2 FET's on board and JBM is due to join the following week with her FET's as well. So at least there will be some of us carring around "Snowflakes" as well as the girls with the fresh transfers.
Once again, welcome and I hope you get lots of comfort from us crazies in here :leap:.
Hi everyone,
I has been a while since I posted, I have been lying low for a while, but still checking in to see how you are all going. I am trying to get my focus off TTC a little bit, and am feeling much more relaxed now that it has stopped taking over my entire life (sort of, as I am still here reading and posting).
Gosh it is busy in here at the moment, how exciting, lots going on.
Lilmisss - Glad your lap went well
Brooke2550 - Wow, 20 eggs sounds great. Glad to hear they are not cancelling the cycle, an E2 of 8000 is high. My last stim cycle I had 21 follies and my E2 on day 12 was 22,500, way over, so they just went to EPU but did not go to ET. I was really upset, but at least I got a good number of follies, 15 went on to fertilise and I did FETs from there.
Abbie - I hope your EPU on the 1st went well, I hope I have the date right.
Bel - Glad to see you are doing so well, and great news re seeing the counsellor. I haven't heard of your protocol, I just know this will be right one for you and all will go to plan. Looks like we will be back in the TWW together again. Yay, I can't wait. :pray: for you.
Rach - I love acupuncture too, though I am feeling a little disheartended with my current lady, I have been seeing her for almost 2 years, and each ET she seems more and more unsure of what she should be doing at each stage, like she doesn't want to stuff it up. I am looking into the one that the FS is recommending instead.
KellyD - Good luck for your scan tomorrow, great that it is early so you know what is going on first thing. Hope everything is as it should be. I know what you mean re fatigue, I am wreaked this month, can hardly keep my eyes open all day.
Muppity - Great news re your ET, how exciting to have a blastie on board. I am trying for blasties this cycle, fingers crossed I get there. Good luck in your TWW and :crossfingers: for your BFP
Jodie - Hope you are well, where are you in your cycle?
Neptune - Great numbers for your EPU, fingers crossed for your ET tomorrow, I hope this month is the one!
JBM - Hope all is going well and good luck for your FET on the 13th. If my cycle goes to plan and I get to blastie I am schedule for my ET on the 13th also, which is very exciting as it is DH birthday that day too. Hope that makes it a lucky day for us both.
Azzrenae - Good luck for your FET on Saturday. I have heard some great results for FETs, unfortunately not for me. But don't let my experience worry you, I am putting it down to OHSS on my last stim cycle that I went to EPU, and I had slightly slow growing and slightly fragmented embies. Fingers crossed for us both for this next one.
TLO - I hope your FET this month brings you your BFP. :pray: I am unexplained too, and it is endlessly frustrating. :crossfingers: for you!
Wishingbaby - What day of your cycle are you? I had a BT yesterday for Day 7, my E2 was 350.
Ruth8 - :crossfingers: for you for this month. I know what you mean about not wanting to go to work, it is hard to think of anything else but this, and the drugs really wear you down. I have been worst hit this month. Good luck with your acupunture too!
Smithy - I agree with KellyD, I wish I had half of your spirit and postivity, thanks for rubbing it off on us. And good on you for sticking to your guns re your embies. I hope these 2 embies are the ones. Yikes, what if they both stick?
Paula - Fingers crossed for you for this month coming
Jodes76 - I hope you are doing well. It took me 3 years to get to my first IVF cycle. Part of me wishes I had started much earlier, but the other part is a bit fatalistic, and thinks it is all part of the plan, journey, what ever you want to call it. I am not sure if I would have been ready back then. It is only early on for you, I hope not much longer at all until you get your BFP. The only think I would have done differently is that I would have worked on my diet from the start. I am a big believer in this, and can say that only now have I never been so healthy. It might have been different for me if I had have done this from the start.
I hope I haven't missed anyone, if so apologies, I wish you all the best for this month, cycle, transfer, TWW and BTs.
AFM, I am Day 8 of my 3rd stim cycle, I have 19 follies growing, but all slightly under size, about 7 - 8 mm. FS has uped my FSH to 100 for the next 5 days (I was on 75). If all goes to plan EPU is on Wed 8th and I am going to try to go to blastie, so ET on the Mon 13th, which is a good day for me as it is DHs birthday. I was really interested to hear that FS said I had some PCOS tendencies, though not sure if this is better than an 'unexplained' diagnosis.
I have made the decision that this will be my last cycle for a while, we have decided to take 12 months off, I was getting a little too crazy, and as I have said before, this has taken over my whole life. It can't go on like this. And just knowing that I am taking a break has taken all the pressure off, so I'm looking at this cycle as a bit of an experiment. Firstly to see if all my hard wook with diet etc will have an impact on my embryo quality, secondly to see if I can get the right number of eggs picked up without OHSS, and thirdly to see if I can get to blastie. Once I get there I will worry about them sticking. So even though I am not really holding any hope for a BFP, I feel much more positive and in a better frame of mind. If this makes sense???
Is this a record for the longest post? LOL. Thinking of you all, praying for you all :grouphug:
Brooke - all the best for your EPU tomorrow - how exciting!
I'm also an acupuncture fan, it helped me get through the last year of my PhD without having a break down :rolleyes: I'm going to use the same guy during my IVF, as he specialises in fertility stuff.
Question for all you ladies - from my understanding, synarel is used to stop ovulation prior to the trigger - yes? Well, as someone who doesn't O normally, do you think I'd still need to synarel during IVF? I know I can ask my FS that (next appt is in a few weeks) but I was just wondering about it. Perhaps the FSH would actually make me O if I don't take the synarel.
I've got my final PhD seminar tomorrow morning at uni - eek! Hence I'm on here procrastinating instead hee hee. Can't wait til it's over. Had to get my hours up at work though so that I could take a few hours off for the talk (and morning tea afterwards) but luckily I only need to do about 5 hours at work tomorrow now.
We saw my parents on the weekend and told them about needing the IVF - they took it really well, thank goodness. Mum already knew about the OI but Dad didn't. DH wants to tell his parents this weekend, before we go on holidays on Tuesday - but we'll be seeing them at our niece's bday party which isn't really an appropriate setting. They know nothing about our fertility woes (don't even know we're trying). So we might try and see them before the party. I guess it means DH can relax more on hols knowing he's told them.
HI again,
Bel - Good luck with the jabbing - I hope you achieve great numbers. The routine of it can be hard sometimes! Prior to IVF - I was petrified of needles, but its amazing how you can deal with things (with a bit of help from emla cream) when you know its all for a good cause!
Ruth - I have my fingers crossed for your scan and for lots of lovely sized eggies! I'd love to hear about your accupuncture. I've read a little bit about it lately but haven't gone down that path yet. Any advice on your experience would be great!
Kelly - Good Luck for your scan too. In my last cycle I came to hate the sniffing more than the needles and that taste! Best wishes.
Azzrenae - Welcome to another newbie like me and good luck for your FET. I too was happy to hear about the positive FET's on this site. My last one unfortunately went through 8 eggs and they cancelled on me - but after reading this site, what amazing success stores - so good luck! Everything crossed for you.
Baby Dreamtime - What wonderful signs for you if its happening on your DH's birthday. That's got to be lucky!!!
AFM - Day 23 of a "natural" attempt and I'm feeling nothing. Who knows - but at this stage I'm just giong to concentrate on being healthy and happy so that if I have to do a FET cycle in 3 weeks time, I'll be ready.
Good night ladies!
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 :lol:
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
Hey everyone, oh my goodness we have such a big group - very cool! :leap:
Although having said that hopefully we can make it over to the preggy thread soon hey? :think:
I am just doing a quick post tonight - off to do some reading for an essay - so exciting?????:rolleyes: And have a busy weekend of work coming up, so I probably won't be around till early next week. I wanted to wish everyone the best of luck with the following:
Pill popping, Sniffing, Injecting, Jabbing, Drinking lots of water, Resting, Recovering, Growing Follies - but not too many - nor to few!, Growing Eggies, Growing Lining of Uterus, Growing Embies, Blood testing, Hormone testing, Progesterone testing, HCG testing, WAITING and all the joys of Assisted conception. Always remember - our turn IS coming!!!!!
So Goodnight lovely girls...
Azzrenae, Jodes 76, Baby dreamtime, Mrs P, Paula, Bel, Smithy, Wishing Baby, Muppity, Ruth, TLO, JBM, Kelly D, Neptune, Abbie, LilMiss, Brooke - sorry if I forgot you...:redface:
Rach xx
Yeah Rach, this thread is huge!
Look I'll just admit it, I can't keep up with all the personals so here are just a few shoutouts:
Azzrenae - welcome to our thread and hope your stay here is a short but good one!
Brooke - thinking and praying for you for your EPU today! I hope you recover well and get lots and lots of beautiful eggies out!
Babydreamtime - what a courageous decision to take a 12 month break and go on you for knowing what's going to be best for you. I hope this cycle goes well for you and either gives you a bub or the answers for next time when you are ready to start again.
TLO - yep, I'll keep you posted on my accupuncture. The way I see it is that although there's not conclusive evidence that it helps, I would feel better if I thought that I was doing everything I could to help the sucess of the cycle. If I DIDn't do it and got a BFN I would feel guilty... crazy I know!
AFM - I'm off for my scan soon so I'll be back later to post my results. I'm been feeling sick in the morning and a bit scatter brained at work. Plus I feel like I just can't cope at all with any criticism or anything negative. DH says I've been moody but I feel okay.
Hi everyone :wave:
I go away for a couple of days and the thread explodes! There must be about 20 people in here. Lets hope that the multiplying is catching in our homelives as well :)
Welcome to all the newbies and a big hi to everyone else as well.
Being totally self centered and can't do personals but wanted to update everyone. Is still a whole week until my blood test - gee time can go slowly when there is no jabbing to do :) DH told me that he thinks that we should be provided with some sort of placebo to inject daily to make us feel better - I like his thinking!
Sending lots of positive baby vibes to everyone. And wishing you all a lovely (long for some - including me YAY!) weekend :)
Hi All
A quick one from me today... When I am at home I have less time to post than when I'm at work :lol:
Well scan this morning went well, lining at a perfect 9mm (as I needs to be) and FET scheduled for Tuesday :dance:. The lab advised to transfer 2 x days 3's as we have more of them (9) and the supposedly are really good quality.
So hopefully the 2 make the thaw on Tuesday morning and we don't have to use any of our "spares" as the clinc calls them. Now just waiting for a phone call to confirm the time and will then organise my Acu pre & post transfer.
No more sniffing :clap: but start the progesterone pessaries tomorrow, my DH thinks they look like Baci chocolates in there foil cases but when it was explained where they go he certainly changed his mind.
So FET on the 7th and BT on the 20th, :pray: that either or both choose to stay put.
KellyD - What a wonderful outcome..:cheer: Goodluck for the 7th..
:hooray: for you Kel. Looks like things are progresssing well for your FET :pray: for the 7th.
AFM - my scan this morning showed about 18 eggies between 1.1cm to 1.7cm. Dr says that's enough and I shouldn't produce any more. I'm feeling a bit fully in the belly but i still have another week till EPU! I was thinking it would be Wednesday but Dr says he'll see me Tuesday and probably schedule it for the Friday.
Hope you all have a brilliant weekend!
Janie & Nicole thanks for stalking me.. hehe I appreciate it!
Brooke hope your EPU goes/went well today. Make sure you drink at least 2L of water daily plus some Gatorade.
Bel remaining positive is the key. Best of luck.
TLO thanks for sharing your story. I can't even begin to imagine the pain you have been through. I too know of people that fell pregnant at the same time that DH and i started trying and like you, it reminds me of how old my little could have been by now. But for all this hardship, we will be rewarded. Remain positive and i am sure that our BFP are on their way real soon.
Ruth my acupunturist also told me that im too young to be doing IVF. She said that i should try just acupuncture and herbs/natural remedies first but im not into that sort of thing. Not yet anyway. Good luck with your session, hope you find it relaxing.
Kelly best of luck with ET on Tuesday. I had to laugh out loud when you mentioned the Baci chocolates. The things our DH's come up with sometimes...lol
azzrenae welcome and good luck with your transfer tomorrow. I hope its a super sticky one.
Baby Dreamtime it would be wonderful to have ET on DH's b'day. Hope it all goes to plan. Good luck.
Rach good luck with your essay.
Im at work so i have been clicking in and out of the thread so im sure i have missed a few of you.. sorry, and good luck with whichever part of the cycle you are all at.
Im off to Melb for the weekend for a Christening so i wont prob wont be back on here till Tuesday. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. And to all the NSW ladies, HOOORRRAAAAYYYY for a long weekend :bluecheer::hooray::cheer:
Hi to all you lovely girls, youa re all doing so well at your various stages. I too have popped in and out all day checking on everyone's progress, but I am too stretched for time to attend to personals.
Maybe tomorrow I will get some time because I will be resting after my ET :leap:
My 7 embies are all doing well, so tomorrow is the big day. I have my pre and post acupuncture booked.
What are the rules for post transfer? i heard resting is good???? :dunno:
:dance::dance:yay kelly d

Hi All,
SO SO SO busy in here...I can't keep up either...so sorry!!
I'm thinking of you all though.
BabyDreamTime- So happy to see you back here and so excited we'll be in the TWW again together too. I hope so much this cycle is the one for both of us. We can meet up and compare pregnant bellies then!!
Lil Miss- Hoping Monday brings you some good news to move forward and get back to TTC. Hope you are feeling ok after the op. Are you going to the clinic on Mon, or to your Dr's surgery. I'll be at the clinic at 8am for BT and US...how amazing if we met up there!!
Neptune- All the best for tomorrow. I don't think there are any "rules" after TF, but I always have a good rest. I figure it can't hurt.
Janet- Gee I would LOVE a massage. I'm salavating just thinking about it!!
Paula- Have a great weekend in Melbourne.
Smithy- Hi there my ray of sunshine. Thinking of you always.
Ruth- Great numbers so far. You must be getting excited. A week seems so far though doesn't it?? I'm looking at EPU the same time.
Kelly- Great news on the lining. You are all set now!!
Muppity- Hope your week goes fast.
Rach- Hope the essay is going well. At least you are a bit distracted from TTC for a while??!!
Jodie- Hope you are having fun trying the old fashioned way!!
TLO- also hoping your natural attempt is going well...at least it's fun!!
Mrs P- Hope you have a good holiday...ooohhh wouldn't that be nice
If I missed anyone..I'M SO SO SO SORRY!!
AFM- still just jabbing. Had an appointment with the counsellor today at my new clinic. She was so lovely, and thought I was doing really well and had lots to be proud of. I'm always shocked when I leave and no-one is waiting to take me and lock me away from the world!!!!
Starting to feel that kind of "need to wee" feeling. I always get that when I'm jabbing. Maybe it's my ovaries filling up..well that's what I'm hoping anyway.
Next week can't come soon enough....BRING ON EPU!!!!
I hope you all have great weekends...and you lucky NSW ladies...great LONG weekends!
Hugs Bel

Hi,
Just popping in to wish everyone good luck.
Also was wondering if any of you have ever started an IVF Cycle after being on the active pill for more than four weeks?
The start of my IVF cycle has now been moved back to Either Nov 5 or Nov 12 as my FS is away when I was ready to start (Oct 21). I am currently on the active pill and was advised to stay on it, I am just worried that if I've been on the active pill for basically 10 weeks before my cycle starts this may mean that AF does not arrive within a few days after stopping the pill/starting Lucrin.
Probably should just stop worrying and see what happens.
Also wondering if any of you ever had a good result after a bad SCSA test. My DP had 31 at his first test and 28 at his second. We're now trying a change of diet and Menevit but wondering if we're set to fail with this.
Sara
Hi red Lady
dont stress im sure they know what there doing, u want AF to arrive on time! ( the only time u get excited that shes here LOL) if your worried ring them and get them to explain it to you. im sure they would be happy to help.
Hi there
I hope I am not intruding, I am new to this site although not new to IVF. I am part way through my third cycle having had the egg pick up last Thurday. I had a massive 11 eggs, so was very excited as this was double my previous attempts.
My high was a little deflated after getting the call on Friday to say only 4 have fertilised so I am a little nervous what day three (Sunday) will bring.... hopefully the cull will not continue and these four will fight to see me through to Blastocyst:pray:!!!
I am cheered up to read so many positive stories in this thread so hopefully the positive will rub off.......Who would have hought it could be this hard. Oh well what doesn't kill you makes you stronger!!;)
OH WOW THERE IS ALOT OF US IN HERE I WISH I COULD SAY THAT WAS A GOOD THING BUT IT WOULD BE BETTER IF WE WERE ALL IN THE BFP CLUB OH WELL WE WILL GET THERE ONE DAY.
WELL THIS IS MY ATTEMPT TO DO PERSONALS IF I MISS ANYONE I AM TRUELY SORRY.
