    That's interesting Porsche. My old FS prescribed clexane, but my new one doesn't want me to take at all. Hopefully it helps! Are they better or worse that the gonal?
    Hope- you did let us know you were having twins. I'm so glad all is going well and have fun letting the fam know. How exciting!!! Are you going to find out what you are having?

    Hey Ladies,

    Wow so quiet in here at the moment. Just thought I would pop in to say hi.

    Bec, glad to hear you are doing better hun, woo hoo on loosing 4.5kg, you must feel amazing, that is fabulous news. Yey to a natural cycle, that too is awesome hun. Poo to men not getting their tests done in a timely manner, arrrr, seriously they don’t have much to do in the whole TTC cycle and then they get something to do and forget to do it, I feel your pain hun. Happy birthday to your gorgeous little boy for Sunday, wow 4 he’s a big boy now, he he! You are sounding like you are in a very good space at the moment, its great to hear.

    Porshce, hope you’re travelling along nicely, wow 8 weeks and 3 days already, time truly does fly, you must be getting so excited. I still have everything crossed for you, cant wait to hear good news about your 12 week scan, are you booked in yet?

    Hope, I think you have told us about the twins but congrates again anyway, so exciting. GL telling the family, it’s the best being able to share such fabulous news.

    Just thought I would update you all on my sister (I have mentioned her on this site before). So it looks like she O’d for the first time EVER this cycle. She is 29 years old and has PCO and has never O’d before. She has been off the pill for over 2 years and has not been able to get AF unless she starts back on the pill for a bit again. So as you can imagine this is very exciting news in our family. She O’d on 150mg of Clomid and was about to start injections cos she didn’t think it worked. I’ll keep you posted on her progress.

    AFM: Not much to report, I’m almost 28weeks now, can’t believe how fast it is all flying. Very much looking to some BFP’s from you lovely ladies this month, it has been way too long again.

    Hope you are all travelling well and the site is quiet because you’re all so busy with life and those BFP’s are going to flock in in the next few weeks.

    Babydust to all
    Xxoo

    Porsche 8 weeks, I was a little off but you aren't that much earlier. Will you have to do the jabs even after the 12 weeks or is that when you can stop. I don't know if I could keep jabbing myself through a whole pg, although if it meant that I would give birth to a baby then I would. FX'd all goes well for the next 32 weeks.

    Bec, poo about your DH not getting in on time for his sample, they don't have to do too much during our journey's and you would think they could be organisd, men!! Woohoo on the weight loss, and who cares what people think when they see you walking, at leats you are doing something about it and are happy doing it. Big happy birthday to you little boy, hope all goes well for the party and you have a great weekend. Oh and GL with this cycle, you never know this could be your month.

    Hope I think I can remember you telling us that you ar having twins, that is still so exciting, 2 little bubbas growing inside you. GL for your scan and telling everyone at DH b'day bbq. Just wondering if you are going to try and find out what you are having, that is if they are lying the right way, it can be hard enough having only 1 to find out, but having 4 arms and legs in there could be a little harder.

    Keli wow, 28 weeks, time has flown fast. That is good news about your sister. I must say my last cycle I was exsatic about ovulating, even though I knew I would from the trigger shot, it was still a good feeling that it actually worked for once. Best wishes for you and the rest of your pregnancy.

    Well a happier post from me now that I am feeling better. I decided to have a sicky today from work, just couldn't deal with it all today. I must have needed time to myself, I went down earlier to have a snooze and slept for over 2 hours and only only woke up cause DH rang to see how I was. Bec I hope you are right about my egg getting ready for a bigger journey.

    Hoping everyone has a great weeeknd and so looking forward to some more BFP's on here including my own.

    epayne: Thanks. I'm still undecided whether or not to find out. DH doesn't want to and if it was just one I wouldn't even consider it. Guess I'll have to sleep on it a little longer, lol.

    Hi Ladies

    No I don't need to keep jabbing after 12 weeks. I stop all meds then thank god lol.

    Bec - I also take cartia as well. I guess every FS has their own method. My FS is a bit over the top with meds but at the end of the day he has fantastic results so I'm not complaining. They sting more than the Puregon. I've not tried the Gonal so i assume it's the same as puregon in a pen type injection?

    Keli - 28 weeks wow time certainly flies.

    Hi All!

    Happy Grand Final Day!! (although, if you're a Geelong supporter like me, you wont be very happy --- especially, if like me, you live with two rabid Collingwood supporters - DH and DD)

    Havent posted for ages - sorry! Have lurked a little bit but it has been very quiet up until now!

    It's great to hear everyone is going well - especially those of you UTD It's lovely to read about your progress.

    Hope - I know what you mean about finding out the gender of your bubs. It is hard to decide. I did with my DD but that was because her dad (my ex) had three boys already. I wanted a girl (but would have been happy either way). I never regretted finding out. We didnt tell ANYONE though so there was still an element of surprise. I think I would again if I am lucky enough to get pregnant. My DH has no biological children of his own and he is the last male in his family line. I would love to have a boy (again, would be happy with either) so it would be good to prepare myself either way....if you know what I mean!

    Liz - in answer to your question of ages ago about the trigger shot (sorry for the delay!!!). The night I gave it to myself I had seen my FS earlier in the day. She just told me to have it that night. Not sure why she picked night over morning.

    Bec - Happy Birthday to your little boy. Four is a lovely age. And kids parties - although exhausting - are great fun Good to hear you are enjoying your walking. I need to get back on track and start up again now the weather is getting nicer. It's a lovely morning here in Melbourne, I should be out there now instead of here on the computer! Good luck with your appointment on Wednesday. Maybe you could get the andrology guys to rush through the results????

    Clamgee - Enjoy your month of "rest". I hope it does you well and you come back to all of this refreshed of mind and body

    wannababy - Ovulating twice!! Kind of ironic isnt it given how we have so many issues ovulating even once most of the time! If only we could program our bodies to do what we want it to do, when we want it to... Good luck sweetie.

    AFM: CD 28, and 10 days past ovulation. My boobs are aching and I have been pretty tired. But I have done a couple of HPTs in the past week and they have been negative. I know it is too early to be definite, but I am pretty sure I am not pregnant. Four more days or so until AF is due so I guess I will know for sure soon enough. Only one more round of clomid before my FS wants to move onto IVF. DH and I have an appointment on Nov 10 to discuss next move --- unless, by some miracle, I get up the duff by then....unlikely though

    Anyhoo, busting for loo. (sorry if TMI). Hello, and best wishes, to anyone I have missed.

    Take care all
