    Hi Ladies
    Sacn went really well today - the sonographer was very encouraging, said there were about 6 good sized follies on each side. So hopefully those develop a bit more or even maybe more catch up. I would like as many eggs collected as possible so that we may get some to freeze this time. Would be over the moon if we get some to freeze as we've never had any before and always a good back up.

    Saffy ~ thanks hun for the best wishes.
    SpringLola ~ thanks chicky, it's very draining isnt it - we werent too bad to begin with after the 1st go for example but after a few attempts its getting harder and harder. Yeh we used to share farm on a dairy but it was too much as Ive always had my own job as well and so we gave up the share farming and bought a house in town. DH is still dairy farming though - just for someone on a wage but he is over it now too as he's been dairy farming since he was 15. Good luck with it hun, hope you enjoy it more than I did LOL.
    LOL about Elmore too - there is only so much tractor browsing you can take isnt there. GL with the accupuncture, I find it very helpful and relaxing.

    Kristine ~ Hi and
    GL with your cycle. We are doing our 1st antagonist cycle this time too - to try and get more and better quality embryos. Hope it works for you 1st go! I knew what you meant by MIF well I thought you were saying Male Infertility Factor LOL, either way works. But I wasnt sure what AMH was. Ive heard about the test though, I would be interested in getting it done myself.

    Hi everyone else and hope you are all well xo

    Hi all

    Welcome to Kristine - hope it goes well for you!
    Loops12 - glad your scan went well

    At my scan I have 5 follies on one side and 4 on the other, FS is happy so far with the way I am responding to the meds. I personally will not feel relaxed until i wake up from EPU and they tell me the number(hopefully not 21 or 23 like the last 2 goes). scan no 2 on Mon.

    RAAAGGHHH... Sorry, this post is all about me...

    I had my scan this morning - and seems like we have a repeat of round one. Not responding all that well to 200iu Puregon - I have 2 follies that are measuring 11 & 12mm - but all of the others are waaaay behind.

    I just had a phonecall from my FS saying to up my Puregon dose to 300iu. Next scan on Monday.

    I'll come back later after I have finished having my meltdown.

    Fatgirlslim ~ As what nicoleh said, hang in there! Im on 300iu so yes I think you should be too. I reckon that will help. Good luck on Monday - I hope the others catch up hun - hugs

    Nicoleh ~ Thanks and good luck to you for Monday as well. I dont tend to have a second scan - I think I will be straight into the EPU on Monday or Tuesday, Im still waiting to hear from the nurse this arvo. That was a great result for you - im glad it wont be as painful and stressful this time for you.

    Ladies ~ and tight for us all xo

    Hi ladies i hope all went well with your scans! Fatgirlslim try not to be too hard on your self things can still pick up from here, goodluck xx

    Welcome Kristine I am too just about to start our 2nd ICSI cycle, AF is due on the 18th Oct! But i think im doing another long down reg cycle so i will be a week or so behind you. Have you started synarel spray/lucrin injections yet? Or completely starting this AF?

    AFM-I go to meet DR Tong who consults at westmead fertility clinic tomorrow to make our decision about swapping clinics If they can fit me in this AF looks like thats what will be happening due to financial reasons. I got mine and DH's blood results today but the nurse just gave me a copy of them to take to westmead she didn't tell me if they were ok???? I had a look over them and it shows the ranges they should be in and if im right they were all fine!!! Now just for the results of my DH's DNA frag test!
