    Looks like there are quite a few new girls in here which is good, we can all start out together.

    Just thought I'd pop in to tell you i just did my first injection Was so easy and didn't hurt at all. I'm feeling a bit proud right now!

    I've realised this week that having so many friends who've done IVF definately has it's down side. The things I've done this week to keep my big secret include:

    * Wearing a cardigan in 40 degree Sydney heat to cover a massive bruise on my arm from my last bt so the girls wouldn't see it

    * Lying to my friends (and MIL) about why I had to catch an earlier train to work

    * Lying to my friends about missing the train because I had to smuggle home my big blue cooler bag containing my injections

    * Trying to come up with a viable excuse to miss a dear friend's kitchen tea because I think that's the day of our transfer

    So all in all, feeling like a bit of a scoundrel I know I am doing the right thing for me though. I don't need the whole world sitting around waiting for the outcome.

    Holly - I'm glad your surgery went well. I had a very similar surgery in November - same problem (stoopid adhesions). My right side is all clear (FS reckons 5% chance per cycle of natural conception) but left side is NOT good. Damaged tube and ovary (had a large cyst removed from my left side in May 06 which is what has caused all the damage).

    BW and I are old friends, we've been hanging out together in the clomid/met thread for a while (for too long really!) but now we're here and giving ourselves the best possible chance BW. Glad to have you along for the ride!

    I'm sorry for not doing more personals, I think I need a bit more time to get to know everyone first.

    I'd better go before I melt. Our PC is in the hottest room of the house and it's a scorcher here tonight.

    Take care everyone.
