    Hello Ladies and a very Happy Valentine's Day to you all!

    I want to thank you all again for your words of wisdom, advice and encouragement. Just what I needed! You're all great and you've helped me to take my next step. So thank you all, again. What would I do without you?

    Now I'm off to baby sit my sister's three kids. What a way to spend a romantic day. LOL!

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend ladies!

    Happy Valentines Day!

    Ahh I can't keep up again, I read all the posts and now will [U]try[U] and do some personals.

    Emerald ~ Still have FX for you! And you can now add me to your list - TWW, BT on 25/02/10, thank you

    Miss K ~ Well done on that EPU, great numbers and now I will have FX you don't get OHSS, GL hun!

    Renee ~ GL for your EPU, FX! And sorry you missed out on that job, can't win em all unfortunately.

    Sorry to those that got BFN's this month.

    Thanks for all your wishes for today, means so much.

    As per the heat question, Ive also heard it is best to have cooler, shorter showers and definitely no baths or spas. I stupidly had a spa bath last time as I went away and hadn't read the details properly on discharge papers.

    Melissal ~ Well done hun and will chat to you in TWW.

    Hi to all I have missed, wanted to keep it short so I can go and rest again.

    AFM ~ A successful transfer today of 1x5 day blasty and also had good news that the other 4 are still doing well, so If they make it to blasty tomorrow they will be frozen, FX!

    GL all with , EPU's, Transfers, TWW and cycles! LOTS OF Big hugs!

    Emerald Star - that is FANTASTIC news! I am so happy for you!! Hope you had a great Valentines Day!

    Melissal - Hope your body is getting ready for the important job it has to do very soon - carrying your new bubba! I remember being shocked that I actually felt discomfort after my EPU as I have a pretty high pain threshold but if you think about what your body has been through it's not a surprise it's a wee bit sore.

    Danyelle - So sorry to hear your news. Sending you the strength to get through this and come out the otherside soon Glad to hear though that the NK Cell Test was able to be done and hope the results are useful too.

    Miss K- Hope you are lookin after yourself in preparation for your big day too. Go embies Go!

    Renee - Hope you have got over your stressful Friday and sorry to hear about the job, but you've got a lot to do this coming week haven't you!

    Moonflower - Hope you have fun babysitting! I always avoid it only because my nieces and nephews are spolit rotten! Hope you are doing OK

    Loops12 - Congrats and heres to a successful BFP for you at the end of your 2WW! GL and FX for you too xxx

    Murraycod - Hi, hope you had a great Valentines Day

    HI to anyone I missed
    AFM - No news of course, I don't get my AF before my BT's and as I don't POAS (I found years of getting no result far too depressing) it's going to be a loooooong week! No Valentines day surprise for me as apparently it's commercial. Have yet to see any evidence of dinner being cooked either. How Romantic!

    Emerald - Can I say congrats yet :P OMG how exciting wahoo I bet you can't wait till your BT!!!

    Moonflower - Have fun babysitting!!!

    Lairdoz - not that long till your BT I hope time flies for you!!

    AFM - WARNING TMI I am suffering I can't go to the toilet because of the high amount of protein I am on the nurse told me pear juice would help but its not and I am unsure if its safe to take a laxitive expecially with ET Wed and possible OHSS so any help would be nice!!!

    I hope you all have had a wonderful valentines day xxoo

    Hi Miss K,

    I had a similar issue and couldn't take anything medical (didn't want to risk it) so the doc suggested drinking heaps of water, having a big bowl of porridge in the morning with prunes in juice on the top certainly helped (but it did make me a bit 'windy' until my body sorted itself out!) Hope this issue is resolved quickly - there is something else over the counter which was really mild I think I also could have taken but chose not to.

    Good Luck!

    Hi ladies , i hope you are all well and had a fantastic valentines day and got spoilt rotten.

    Emerald Star- ohhhhh im so excited for you, cant wait for you bt results.

    Murraycod-thank you.i am feeling alot better but still have the bleeding.thursday i got to speak to the dr that did the lipoidal hsg on the phone and he reckoned that there was no chance that everything that was going on was from the hsg,pffffrrttt but also said i shouldnt be bleeding 2 days later after having it done.i gave him the benefit of the doubt and waited to see if things settled friday and it didnt so first thing saturday morning i headed up to the hospital.i told them i was bleeding when im not supposed to after a test and also that i had a lump in my neck that was moving up and down my neck (we noticed it just before i left to head to hospital).three hours later and i still hadnt been called in.hell nurse hadnt even taken blood pressure etc.i was told it would be another 2 to 3 hours to get called in.so ended up coming home unseen.i still have some bleeding this morning.

    On a positive note on friday afternoon i got a tattoo on my right wrist for my mum.her nickname since she was little was froggy so i got a frog wearing a breast cancer ribbon. and on the 26th im getting 2 more tatts.a small breast cancer butterfly and also a phoenix and dragon facing each other with their claws entwined(to symbolize DP and i) to surprise DP as he will be in perth when i get it done.he knows im getting the butterfly but cant figure out why my appointment will take about 3.5 hours lmao.he is taking my netbook with him so i will show him on messenger that night hmmmm oh yeah baby i have something else to show you kinda convo lol.

    Anyone else a tatt addict? with the two next week i will have 10 lol.but other than wrist ones they are mostly covered

    Hi everyone!!

    Emerald Star - It is sounding extremely good!! Not too long now to wait for the BT either!!

    Melissal - I hope that your feeling better now ... when is your ET?

    Danyelle - sorry to hear your news.

    Miss K- I'm in queensland and constantly worried that the nasal spray is heating up too much - as they say 'DONT' put it in the fridge, but keep it under 24 degrees - In Queensland at summer time ...??? I don't know!! On another note, I'm also going to QFG - the Brisbane clinic. Maybe we could catch up for coffee sometime to chat!! When it your ET?

    Renee - That's great about the scan! and hope the EPU goes well today!! you get some great embies out of it!!

    Loops12 - That's great the ET went well!! On valentines day too!! hopefully your 2WW goes quickly!!

    Murraycod - The month will pass by before you know it!!

    Hi to anyone I missed (there are a lot of people on here!!)

    AFM - I've been MIA since Friday as I had planned a romantic escape for DH!! We went up to Gympie (not the most romantic destination!!) for the 'romancing the rails' night on the Valley Rattler (it was an old style train ride with dinner)!! On the fertility side, my AF came at 6:15pm on Friday!! I was never so excited about it in my life - DH and I were out for dinner with friends and I couldn't remove the smile when I returned from the Ladies!! I started my injections this morning too!! I'm so excited - yet so scared!!

    As it's my first (and hopefully only) time, I have a few questions: What is the best protein drink to have? What else should / shouldn't I be doing!!

    Hope everyone had a wonderfully romantic valentines day too!!
