Loops- you poor little thing- it all sucks and it's not fair! I would be ****ed right back at your sister! You are extremely evolved and mature being nothing but happy for her. Not me! I am jealous and bitter of anyone who falls pregnant at the moment! Fortunately my sisters are a fair bit older than me and their baby-making days are behind them. I do have an old friend who started IVF in October last year after 12 months of trying and fell on the first attempt. That ****ed me off too because I feel like she has no idea what it feels like when it doesn't work! Nice, aren't I? But you are right, you do have a safe place here to express whatever it is you are feeling.
N2L- great idea! Coming back in, I feel like I need to work out who is doing what. Unfortunately though, my next step is surgery to clean up the endo before another stim cycle. I'm waiting on the referral from my FS to the endoscopic surgeon because she doesn't want to touch it! That fills you with confidence, doesn't it?! Apparently he is the best in Australia which is great but worries me in terms of how long it will take to get in with him. Hopefully I will know more by the end of this week.
went to a baby shower yesterday...wanst as bad as i was expecting, the worst bit was when i was catching up with some friends and them asking how the TTC is going, and having to explain the whole thing..same thing happened at the pub last night when chatting with one of DH best mates, tyring to to bore or drag them all down so just said, yea we are trying IVF, and leaving it at that...
so after all that, what do I do to cheer myself up?? I buy baby stuff! our town had a market day today, and everyhouse had a garage sale, so we were checking it all out and I was chatting to a girl who lives down the road who had a ring sling for sale, was in my fave colours, and was like 1/3 of the retail price...DH encourages me to buy all this stuff now when i get it heaps cheap rather than wait til we need it and getting full price, which i agree with, i'm getting as much 2nd hand/free stuff as i can, but yea...hes not good with the talking me out bit... so I was chatting to her about how i look at ring slings and dont feel they are secure, but she had triplets (!) and said she used to carry 2 in the sling and push one in a pram...so must work....so now I own 3 different types of slings and not a baby...
I dont recommend doing that to cheer you up...
anywho... where am i at..
I am just waiting for AF to come so i can start a FET (i think we will go with natural not stim cause i dont have a problem with Oing..they did say they can stim if needed), so I just O'd this cycle last weekish... so expecting AF in the next week or 2, then we can start again =) we have 2 frosties, so will use one of them I guess.
love to everyone!!!! sorry theres no personals again, im still lost...
Hi LADIES
You all brighten me up so much and are all very much appreciated! The nice sunshine we are having at the moment helps too!
N2L ~ thanks for the list - good work! I get totally lost too. All the best to you with your weight loss and the lead up to your next cycle. the next one is the one for you (4 us both)!
Jayejaye ~ thanks so much hon, your support means everything. 100% agree with that too and I do feel I need to do what I feel is best for me not worry so much about what the family thinks. Excited for you about starting another cycle - for an up-coming BFP for you! Goodluck with the jabbing.
Meg ~ thanks hon for the shoulder to lean on. Believe me I do get a little bitter occasionally, I think it is only natural for us having been TTC for so long. I'm pretty close to my family so I guess thats why it hurt so much as well - but when it comes down to it I just don't want any of my family or close friends to have to go through what we have. Completely understand why you'd be upset with your friend though. Thats why its so great we have each other in here - hugs!
Tei ~ baby showers do tend to be hard - I can't wait for the day that mine will come.
I think we should be proud when we face our friends and families' baby-showers. Goodwork. I get tempted to buy baby stuff all the time and I do have some things but I do tend to stop myself. The further we get along I start to say why though, perhaps I should buy stuff - it may jinx us in a good way
Hope AF comes soon so you can get started - all the best for your FET, I've heard natural is the way to go if you can.
Saffy and Blossom ~ hope you're well. Goodluck with everything
for us all and

Loops- sorry your family can't give you the room to vent without passing judgements, that must have been hard for you. We are always here as you know and we understand xx
Teraie- hmmm, babyshowers...difficult. I get the same thing at work with questions all the time " how are you going with your IVF", what can I say? "good thanks"!?! without going into the whole details, its hard to just brush people off.
meg- my acupucturuist said you (as in everyone,not just you) put on 2 kg with each stim cycle so it is a losing battle!! I am trying really hard to keep my weight under control too before it gets out of control. Did you have any progress on the payment issue?
N2L- thanks for the list, hopefully i will have a more definate timeframe soon. Are you feeling any better??
jayejaye- that sucks about your last cycle, sounds very strange to get AF that soon, I wish FS's would have an answer for things like that rather than "i don't know why that happened". The same thing happened to me when i did an FET earlier this year. How frustrating, no chance of embie implanting when the lining is shedding straight away!!!
I would have been really annoyed if I were you.
Blossom- hope the tww is treating you well.
AFM- went to acupuncture this am to try and bring my AF on, been cramping since so fingers crossed!
Thanks Saff ~ I know you ladies are the best! And I'm always here to listen as well and offer my support where I can of course, xoxo
Goodluck - really have FX'd tight AF arrives within the next couple of days!
