Hi Lovely Ladies
Trishy ~ thanks heaps hun and good luck to you, hope AF arrives very soon so you can get the ball rolling

Oneday86 ~ the waiting is the worst part isnt it but Ive been finding that if I stay busy the time usually passes quickly, I hope it does for you. Enjoy Fiji - that sounds wonderful. I thought the same thing that IVF/ICSI was supposed to eliminate all male factor fertility issues but we are in a similar boat to you have done 2 cycles now with 1 not taking at all and the other ending in early m/c. So I think male factor does have some affect still but perhaps not as much. Perhaps its just not our time yet though hun and at least you did get that BFP so you know it can happen. I hope the tests come back better than you expect. Is DH on any herbal fertility remedies? - we have found they have helped my DH's count and mobility etc. I know its one of those things sometimes people dont like to hear because we want a child now as weve been waiting so long but you are young still hun so at least you have time on your side and also options. for you though that the tests come back good hun, all the best!

Kass ~ Ive probably already said it but again so sorry for you BFN -
That's the way I looked at it - at least if it was a chemical you still got that step closer. Next time will be the 1, GL!

Terry ~ thanks hun, im pretty excited to be trying again. Wishing you all the very best for your FET as well.

AFM ~ Just wanting time to scoot by now up to doing my 1st jab etc - getting the show on the road. But talking about shows - im off to the Melbourne show next week for a week showing cattle - FUN! So that will help to pass the time.

gday guys yes belly belly went haywire all this week lol.. got our bt results came back as a bfn which we knew from all the bleeding so no progress was made but yesterday we saw the FS (new one as old one retired) he was great so supportive and encouraging and comforting. He told us that we are on the right road doing icsi and we are in the higher percentage of it being successful so that was comforting and he also said we didn't do anything wrong last cycle he said it's just a numbers game of which emby is going to hold but was very very happy that with our antagonist cycle that we got 9 eggs fert and then 6 took and got three very strong blasties so he said everything is playing in our favour. SO just waiting for af to arrive in about three weeks so we can do our FET no drugs at all this time woohoo all I have to do is use OPK's and two bt's and then put our snow bub in and sit and wait. He is also running a test I asked if we could rule out as my mum and two sisters have Coeliac disease which cane be a huge contribution to infertility so did the bt find results on monday he said if it comes back pos don't stress he said all we do is put me on a gluten free diet before FET and he said it's instant result so am relieved as the previous FS didn't think it was necessary to test.
ANywho sorry about a me post just on quick will come d persies later on so just sitting basck enjoying life for a month and being happy for the first time in ages.
Hugs to you all have felt lost without bb this week

Hi True hun. Im so glad we have the same FS - he sounds great, cant wait to meet him properly. All the best with your FET - sounds good! xoxo

Hey ladies, thanks so much for your kind words, i love BB and all you wonderful ladies on here Loops, my DH is on sperm max which is from a natural shop and he is also taking vital greens (he mixes a tablespoon of the powder stuff in water each morning and drinks it) It cost about $100 a month for the stuff but its got so many good vitamins in it and it helps flush out any heavy metals he may have in his system. I put my DH on menevit 6 months before having BT's when we found out there was an issue and not sure if you have seen my DH's sperm results but they were bad! no motility, very low sperm count and on the border line of having too many abnormal sperm, so i don't think it worked for my DH thats why we have tried something new this time. Goodluck to you loops, i have everything crossed.

Trueblue, good luck with everything, i hope this is the one for you. I found my natural cycle was alot easier compared to my two medicated ones

Terry i too hope this one is the one for you and you don't need another STIM, its a crapy feeling xx

Kass, i think its a great thing that we did have a sticky embie its just finding the right one now to stick full term

[trueblue]

One day: Yes our new FS told us to bin the menevit he said they are pretty much rubbish they have only been tested by the manufacturers we had more of a response from the naturopath/chinese herbalist.
Hope this is your round though fx'd

Morning ladies

Danni sounds pretty promising for you the brownish colour good have been implatation I've read that here before. As for the hot flushes etc cronine can do that to your body too

Loops have fun at the show took my nieces last Sunday had a great day although it was quite expensive

Dreams good luck today I'm sure everything will be fine

Saffy fingers crossed for you too hon. It's it funny when you look back that we can just have a little moment of weakness without knowing that it will happen. Don't owrry about it its a good thing to let your feelings out.

AFM have my scan on Monday to check out how my follicle is growing so I'll have a better idea when the transfer might be

Danni-girl ~ All sounding very positive esp the brown spotting. The Crinone from memory did give me headaches but I also felt the way you are describing when I got my BFP. You would still get AF whilst on Crinone if not PG. Good luck and she doesnt come for over 9 months!

Terry ~ GL on Monday hun, hope those follies are growing nicely! Yes the show is very expensive these days which is a shame. Im working there with cattle so dont have to pay obviously which is nice, although my mum had to pay a pretty big entry fee anyway LOL.

Hoping everyone is well and all the best!

Good luck to those scanning, jabbing and testing can only get in via mobile without getting the URL error

Hi ladies, hope everyones well. Im not so good Af showed up today right on time and 2 days before my blood test. I don't really think there is any point going but my hubby thinks i should go just in case i could still be preg. I very much doubt it...can that even happen? I will still go tho to get it out of the way and ease my mind. Should i still take my last 2 doses of crinone? Yucky! Well im feeling pretty down so im gonna go buy myself a big block of chocolate and drown my sorrows sorry for the negative post.
