Oh FGS I am soooo sory to read that you have not had much progress XXX
Rob is right, our bodies all react different to the drugs, I had 3 IUI's and my body was acting completely different to the puregon each month, on my third try, I was still injecting puregon on day 21 of my cycle, I was going completely off the rails whereas the 1st, I was ready by day 13.
What a rollercoaster ehh? Sometimes there seems to be more downs than ups, when we are on an up, the downs seem to be forgotten for just a while, until we have to turn another darn corner. Sweetheart it will work out in the end. We are all here for you, just remember to take is easy, have they called you to let you know what is going to happen next?? Thinking of you XX

Rob I live in Robinvale Victoria, about 5hrs from Adelaide....loooong drive!!
You are right about the sonographer, they shouldve kept quiet if they were not sure, their job is to scan and send, not give a half prognosis to a patient. No matter what, I just hope that you and bub(s) stay happy and healthy.

Danyelle I say go for it with the accupuncture, I am too. After I MC in March last year, I began accptr and it got my cycle back to normal within 35days, I have continued to go eversince. Sometimes I find it a little pinchy, but all in all it is painfree X Good luck with it!

MitF Congrats on your Pregnancy!!! I'm pretty sure I met you in the TWW a couple months ago and I am so glad things have finally worked out for you!!!XXX

WaitingAwaiting IKWYM X As I said to Rob, the sonographers job is not to diagnose, or make a Pt feel uncomfortable, you would have been going nuts you poor thing X Glad everything seemed to be ok though X Internals are awfull, what us girls need to go through huih? It does suck big time. I do beleive that we will get our luck in the end of all this, but why us???

Jaki80 I loved watching my IVF scan too, and it was the first time DH came in to have a look, he was amased!

Terri fingers crossed for you on your Natural TWW XXX Glad you feel a little more refreshed and the stress levels are at a low, I don't know what it is like to endure an IVF TWW yet, but I'm sure it will be agony.

MissK congratulations on begining your journey to IVF!!! Sorry you have to go through the rollercoaster of it all, but I'm just glad for you that you feel like you are finally going to get somewhere XXX Good Luck with it, and keep us posted!

AFM, well EPU yesterday was interesting, woke up after sedation very queasy, and never got to leave untill 730 last night!! So many girls came in after me but seemed to walk out so easy before me!!! I stumbled back to motel hanging off DH like I was still on cloud 9!!
Out of 9 eggies collected, (4 ICSI and 5 Natural ) (3 ICSI fertilised + 3 Natural fertilised)
so today we have 6 embies so far!! They are going for blasty stage, so won't know exactly how many will keep growing until ET on Friday.

Take care all XX

I saw Angela McLean, she was awesome, always positive and a great inspiration and support to stay positive. She was the one who said about the "steps" and it really helped in so many ways.

Like in weight loss instead of focusing on lets say the 20kg lets focus on the 500g steps. I lost 8 kg this weigh.

I really believe my positive result was cause our consent ran out the day before. We saw her at 12pm and transrred that afternoon, but she really helped me feel so good that day. She noticed the 8kg without even knowing. She was awesome.

The nurses were a bit odd actually. A couple were awesome. But I also had a couple that weren't. One all but said why are you here when you already have 4 kids. I am not joking. Put me off that much I didn't go there for my pg ultrasounds because I just couldn't cope if it were her that had to do it.

I got a lecture before my previous transfer from a dr I didn't know about putting 2 embryos back. We were ready to walk away after that. Seroiusly I was naked from the waste down couln't leave the room and he was horrible. And no that transfer didn't work. I went back and saw our dr after that and she was going to take it further. So I am not sure if that it what caused the issue or the act we already had kids but
after talking to our dr decided to use thses embryo's up first. We were catually contemplating going over to linders iv this year i it hadn't worked but i guess thats history now.

The wait for our next scan is killing me but I seriously couldn't go back there.

Hi everyone,

Well I'm over sulking and have got back up on the horse again.

Was a little upset with Hubby after our BFN, his answer was, "so is that it now". IF looks could kill, he would be dead.
He got a little confused with what I said at the end of last year, when I said that's it for this year, he thought we were quitting
I was talking about for when the new changes for medicare and how it was going to cost us a lot more.
Lets just say he was in the dog house for a couple of days.

I agree with Rob and Murraycod with regards to everyone is different, on my previous FET I didn't ovulate till day 28, my longest time ever last year was day 30, my body is just on a go slow most of the time. Hope its not going to be the same again this month.

O.k. I have decided to do Acupuncture but I want to go to somewhere where someone from Belly Belly has gone and would highly recommend. Does anyone out there have any suggestions. ?????

Good luck everyone, I have my fingers & toes crossed for you.
