Tasha - I'm so so sorry Yes, it's so stressful and so unfair that you have to deal with all the heartache and financial costs of ttc on top of all of life's other problems Cry, scream and let it out. I really hope DH comes around and gets more on board soon. Men take a LONG time to admit that help is needed I hope you have a good friend that can help you get your mind off things tonight. Thinking of you...
Sunbeam and Saffy - Mothers!!! Five pages! I really hope that works My mother has caught onto things too. She doesn't know we're trying but knows we'll need fertility treatment when we do. She's intent on finding out where my problems came from and is calling all her and dad's rellies asking about their fertility and miscarriages. She's declared it's dad's side that's the problem. That isn't at all useful but gotta laugh!!
List is great Joeve! I hope the 2ww is treating you kindly... and you Sunbeam and Minnie
I had a thought - is it possible to get fertility treatment through the public health system? I know very little about it except there would be long waiting lists and criteria to meet etc. But does anyone know if it's possible and if you still have to cover some costs? I'm sure it's not the ideal option, but if it's the only option, it might be worth looking into... ??? Has anyone tried?
I hope everyone had good weekends and that those in the 2ww are surviving I had the girls over last night and had a couple of drinks I don't have good feeling about this cycle and am more counting down to my FS appointment than to testing. Tho I'm sure when it comes time to POAS, all the crazy emotions will come out to play
Mich not sure you can, I think its classified as elective as in we all elected this roller coaster because we needed the head mess
Ok not looking good here, progestrone results not great and i think AF is coming - 5 days early....wtf?

: listness
Minnie thanks I know I just don't get it, I know I didn't ov early because I was being monitored. Oh well I guess it's sooner to the next cycle. How are you feeling any signs?
Oh no Joeve that sucks. What has the FS said? (if u have spoken)
Any news from anyone else? Symptoms? Poas?
AFM: Well my new pack of OPK's came in the mail today 4 days too late!! So I have gone 4 days without OPK's, could have ovulated, but don't think I have. Arrrgh! Plus we haven't been dtd unprotected because I keep getting a bacterial infection, but now I have a yeast infection anyway. Is my vagina trying to tell me something!!?
Yes Tasha it's telling you "stop this torture and bring on the IUI!" You poor thing.
Joeve - AF! No way - that's crazy. I'm so sorry Was this just an unusual, evil cycle for you or do you think you need to be on progesterone?
Not much action here - except I think I'm putting back on the weight I lost because I've stopped jogging in the 2ww and am using progesterone - blah I'll probably POAS Friday.
Joeve - AF already!! Sounds like you need some prog support like many of us. So sorry the witch showed up instead of a BFP
Tasha - If I were you I'd be giving up on this cycle. What cd are you up to now? I'd have lost all patience. I'd get a bt to make sure I hadn't o'ed then get pills to bring on AF and get on with the bliss of IUI. I'm sorry money is adding to the stress. Do you know how much out of pocket you'll be from IUI? I've found there is a big difference in price from one clinic to the next up here. If you keep getting infections check out stuff about Candida (I think that's how you spell it). I'm not really sure what it is but it has been mentioned to me by several natural therapists and they have asked if I get a lot of infections (which I don't which is why I didn't pay so much attention) but they often mentioned it as being a key issue in fertility.
Saffy - How's the jabbing going? Sorry work is crazy busy, few days off will be nice for you.
Mich - I hate the 2 week on 2 week off diet/exercise thing I think I actually end up weighing more but it is so hard to stick to it in the TWW.
Minnie - Hi.
AFM - TWW has been easy so far. I think I am so convinced that nothing can possibly implant when I haven't had a proper AF lining shedding in 3-4 months that I totally don't expect to be UTD! Because of this I am in 2 minds about whether to go straight into IUI, I'd much rather start knowing I have a proper fresh lining in place. But at the same time I don't want to do a cycle in March as I don't ever want to be 6-7 weeks pg on Anzac Day again (mc on Anzac Day in 08 and 09) so I'll be taking that cycle off anyway and hopefully FS can then give me something to make sure the lining sheds. But then is the Feb one just a waste of money?!!
Mich - You know what motivates me? At the gym they have huge TV's on the wall and most of them play channel V music videos, just seeing those beautiful, toned, thin girls makes me sweat it out even more!! "lol"
Hi Minnie, Joeve and Saffy
AFM: DH and I had our counselling appointment yesterday. I have another appointment with my FS in 2 weeks and I will be meeting the nurses for the IUI. I'm assuming FS will give me provera or something similar to bring on AF and then I can start the drugs, YAY So hopefully we can get this show on the road by the end of the month!
