    Bec: YAY on the good test results. All the best with the jabbing regime. Hope all goes well for you this time around. Um, does this mean you do not have POCS?

    Epayne: hehe, if you have any luck with coming up with ways to convince DH to find out the sex of baby when it happens, can you give me some tips. I think I do want to find out but he is currently adamant that we are not finding out and I really can't keep it as a secret from him, I am bound to slip up for sure. I hope this cycle is a great cycle for you. FX hun.

    mooz: Welcome and all the best on this journey. You will find loads of support from this group, they are all so wonderful.

    Miss Kris: YAY on AF arriving (IYKWIM). FX for round three.

    A big hello to everyone elso here. Sorry for not doing persies to you all, I'm still not too sure where you are all up to.

    The only advice i can give you kristy is to make sure you tell the ivf dr everything that you have tried so they dont put you on the same path. My first appointment was to assess me on ways to get preg before ivf but when the metformin, clomid, IUI and ovarian drilling didnt work it all happened pretty fast. I think i went and seen him in late november early december and we got the ball going from there - filling out paper work, councelling and in Victoria we had to do police checks and i think its like a working with children type check. Once all this was done we had to wait for a period which came new years day and i had egg transfer Feb 15 so i think it was pretty fast, but 12 months leading up to it trying other options - but sounds like you have already tried the other options. Good luck with it

    Hope everyone else is doing good and look forward to another spurt of BFP's

    Everything is going good with me still, getting very big now and extremely excited only just over 5 weeks to go now!

    Take care ladies xxoo

    hey everyone,

    Tammara: yeh we have tried a few options so hopefully that will make the process a bit quicker... Also i researched it a bit online and it seems like you dont need a police check in NSW... Thanks for the advice

    Porshe: Thanks for the reply if i have had a full set of blood tests done only in june will they want me to do them again or will brining in the results of those ones be enough, also dh has already had a SA and has the results at home again if we bring them a copy of that will that be enough? no police checks have to be done in NSW so thats one thing to cross off the list, I try to be proactive as we have never wanted something so bad in our lives but i have just had no luck finding a doctor that really wants to get in there and help us achieve our goal, so hopefully my appointment on wed will be the start of a new chapter and we will actually make some progress...

    Also does anyone think that accupunture actually helps ttc?

    As for everyone else i hope your all doing great and lots of babydust to each and everyone of you...

    Hi Everyone,

    Welcome to the thread mooz, I am sure that you will find the support from all the ladies here priceless.

    Liz - I hope you are doing better than me on your TWW. I was doing okay, but starting to get anxious now! These last days are the worst!

    Kristie - I hope that things work out for you and hubby soon. I have wanted a baby since as long as I can remember, so I know your pain.

    AFM - Need some advice!! On Thursday afternoon I started bleeding. I had, had a pink tinge to my CM for a couple of days, and then when I went to the bathroom on Thursday afternoon there was spotting and I have had it since. It has stopped and started a bit, and is very light, not like a normal period, much lighter. I have a feeling that maybe I didn't ovulate and this is my cycle being crazy? Has anyone else had anything like this?

    Hi girls,
    just wanted to say good luck to those TWWers. Hope you guys get BFP's!
    I haven't been checking in enough, and I'm no sure where you all are at, so good luck, welcome, commiserations on AF arriving, yahoo for ovulating, baby dust, sticky vibes and general how are you to everyone!

    AFM: Finished primulot and waiting for AF which should be in the next few days. Jabbing starts CD2 and then scans etc untill ready to induce ovulation with pregnyl. then 2 pregnyl boosters throughout TWW (has anyone else had this??). I'm not sure exactly what the process is called, it's the same as IUI but just DTD at home as per usual. OI still I suppose.
    I'm so sorry I haven't been in more, I'm having a bit of trouble getting everything together at the moment. I promise I'll be more with it and supportive once this new cycle starts.
    Hugs to you all,
    Bec

    Bec, GL with all the jabbing. You are doing what we are, the IUI process but going home to DTD instead of insemination. You have been through alot, so I think you deserve to have some time out now and then, we all do I reckon. Best of luck hun and hope AF doesn't take too long to arrive and you can start the new cycle.

    WBM not sure I can give you any advice, but I must say that I have had a little pink CM today when going to the bathroom. So I'm in the need for a little advice as well. When are you due to do a test again ? can't remember when you are due to do one. Sorry I can't help, but best of luck hun.

    Kristie OMG, I would be getting a new GP. What an a***h**e to not understand that you would be stressed about what is going on. Hoping when you go to your appointment you will be able to start the next part of your journey and move forward.

    Tammara, how exciting only 5 weeks, hope you have a nice and easy birth.

    Hello to everyone else out there hoping you are all travelling well.

    AFM well half way through my TWW and am starting to wonder about a few things, I haven't had any real signs yet and can't wait for next weekend to come around. Can I ask a little advice and sorry for TMI, but I have noticed a pink CM when I go to the bathroom and just wondering what it might mean??

    Wishing everyone babydust and stickyvibes...

    Liz xx

    Liz,
    Not too sure how many dpo I am as I only did OPKs on and off and never saw a OPK+ (so maybe I didn't even ovulate), but I am CD 23 (and last month was a 27 day cycle). I am the same as you this month, hardly anything in the way of signs or symptoms. Other than the light bleeding, I haven't really felt any different, not like last month! Maybe your pink CM is implantation related? You are about the right point to see that?? Maybe? My fingers are crossed ever so tightly for you!! xx
