    POrsche- I love hudson! Lily was my girl pick when we had DS but since then I taught a thoroughly annoying Lily so it's off my list! beautiful name though. I love maddison too both very pretty. We've got Scarlett Katherine or Finn or Archer if we have another one, I love baby names!

    I will ring my FS about the pen and see what she says, but I've got enough Gonal f for this round so I'll just go with that. I started jabbing yesterday and I've found I have been really sore and bloated today. Is that normal? CAn't be OHSS yet, so I don't know why it's happening! Yet another bizzaare symptom to add to the list!

    Welcome back N2L!

    Have a good night everyone,
    Bec

    Wow it looks like everyone has been busy.

    Bec I'm not to sure about the difference between the 2 but I am sure they are just different brands. When I got my gonal f injections in the box it had the pen (with stuff in it) and the needle sticks to put on the pen. So not sure why you weren't given the pen as well. Oh and I so hope that your right about th July baby, will have everything crossed for you.

    Tammara that is so exciting only 4 weeks to go. yay!!

    N2L GL with your appointment, and yeah it would be interesting to see what the replacement is like, I don't think that my FS has a replacement, last time he went on holidays we had to put off moving onto the next step until he was back.

    Porsche wow, only 2 weeks until you get to see your bub again. Keep thinking positive thoughts about holding your baby in the next 29 weeks.

    Hi to anyone else I know I have missed a few of you, hoping you are all travelling well.

    Well, AF finally finished and I am off to the FS tomorrow to start jabbing for the 3rd round. Oh I thought that I have been going well with the clomid dosage until this cycle. I have been easily anoyed and snapping at just about anything that is even only slightly anoying I sort of didn't realise it till DH asked me last night again what dosage I was on and when I asked why he just looked and said that I have been quite moody that last few days.
    I did have a little pick me up this afternoon, I had a long chat with my sister last wed about everything and I recieved a package in the mail from her (chocies and a card), I think it was just what I needed and in 15 days I will be seeing her, BIL and my little nephew. It was quite funny talking to her she asked if I would be finished the injections, well yeah we should be, but hey my body doesn't always do what it is supposed to. I said, well if not then we will be sleeping in the shed out back instead of my folks then won't we
    On the names topic DH have sort of decided on the names we like for a girl Eden Lily and for a boy Christian John. Oh and Porsche Hudson is a lovely name.

    Looking forward to some more BFP's on here, just think we all need a pick-me-up.

    Hi Ladies

    I'm more accepting of Hudson now lol. Just need to get used to it as DH won't budge lol.

    Liz - Yay on the chocies. What a great pick me up for you. And what a thoughtful sister. You're very lucky.

    Bec - At least you have enough gonal to get you through. I didn't noice bloating until EPU but I know i is a S/E lol. I think we've had them all about now?

    Nothing2lose - Good luck. I hope you have a nice looking follie about to pop!

    Morning ladies,

    It’s been a while so just thought I’d pop in to say hi to you all.

    Porshce, yey 2 more weeks I’m anxiously but excitedly awaiting the good news. Will you find out what you’re having? OMG I hadn’t even thought of the name Hudson but I absolutely LOVE it, so beautiful! Lily is gorgeous too, I wanted to use it for a middle name but DH is not sure. Are your middle names after family members?

    Tammara, OMG only 4 more weeks? That is so exciting! I remember when you announced your BFP, I remember crying at my desk at work, and then you all those scares you had along the way. Can’t wait for the wonderful, long awaited announcement of the arrival of Maddison Sheree, is she named after anyone?

    Bec, yey for starting jabbing hun, YKWIM! So excited for you! It is totally your turn for that long awaited STICKY BFP! Can’t wait to hear how it all goes! Love your baby names too hun, Scarlett is just magnificent!

    Liz, GL for round 3, fx’ed this is your month, this thread needs another boost of BFP’s. Hope your moods aren’t too bad. I always said to my DH well you think they’re bad??? Try living with them 24/7 like I have to, you only have to put up with them a few hours a day, lol! They’re not fun I know! PS: Your sister is so sweet, she must have known that was just what you needed. Nice to have people that not only listen but also act. Love your names too, Eden is very pretty, wow Lily seems to be a popular one!

    N2L, GL with your FS app, let us know what the replacement thinks about another cycle. What’s the plan otherwise? Onto IUI?

    OK so on the names subject, we don’t think we are going to have middles names, I don’t have one and DH kind of likes that. Also DH and I both lost our fathers within the past 3 years so would be hard to choose one and we don’t want to give bubs 2 middle names. So we’re thinking Oscar for a boy and Olive for a girl (no weird spelling), what’s everyone’s thoughts?

    Well hoping, wishing and praying for lots of BFP’s this month, it’s way too dry in here at the moment, IYKWIM, lol! GL to all wherever you are at in you r cycle!

    Xxoo

    Hi Ladies

    keli - Nice to hear from you. You must be getting close?? Yes the middle names are family members. Judith is MIL (al though she hates it and is called Judy), Kay is my Mum and Donald is FIL. My Mum hasn't had a grand child named after her so I said to DH that we really should have Kay as a middle name as well. So I said Lily Judith Kay and we both agreed. Just have to figure out the spelling of Lily. There are 2 different meanings for the 2 different spellings.

    Lily - Latin for Is a blossoming flower
    Lilly- Latin for Is the flower

    Now Hudson is because of DH being in the RAAF so go figure lol. DH says it will be a talking point in his adult years lol. I can see his point.

    Thanks for the well wishes, yep my sister is just the best, just knows what to say and do to make me smile. Just a quick one as I'm on my lunch break and need to get back to work soon. Well I went to the appointment this morning and he said that it was strange to get af so early and that this cycle I will have to use a gel in my whoha (sorry forget what is called) to put off af a little longer. I am also on 75iu per injection, which I thought I would be on. I am going back next Tues and taking DH with me so hoping I will get the trigger shot and FS wants to talk about the next step. The nurse also saw me this morning and had a chat about my weight (basically gave me a kick up the bum, lol) as I have put on weight since first seeing them, and she said if I get down to a BMI of 35 then I will qualify for 1 free IVF cycle with another specialist that works at QFG. As money will be a big issue for us to do IVF, she spoke to the specialist and he said he would be happy for us to do it, just need to loose the weight. So DH and I have some talking to do and decide on what we are going to do, I was thinking if we stop thinking about TTC and I focus on me for a while and loose the weight so it's not too much playing on my mind at once. Hoping that it won't get to that, but in the back of my mind I am thinking it will.

    Sorry for the me post, but thought I would update what I am doing as prob won't be back for a little while, want to give my mind a break and need to sort out what to do next. Wishing everyone the best of luck for their cycles and having more BFP's on here.

    Keli - we chose maddison because we like maddy and sheree is my cousins name - the one who made our maddy possible, she donated me her eggs. She doesnt know yet, to be honest im surprised i have kept it a secret from her for so long she will find out when she meets her

    epayne - good luck with the weight loss, hopefully by changing your motivation to the weight loss and not ttc it will do the trick for you. I know a few people that have lost weight with the diet shakes but it does take alot of will power - i would be no good at it.

    yeah she knows its a girl. Ive not been able to keep anything secret too excited, thats why im surprised i have managed to keep it from her. She will have a cry when we tell her
    Ive had to tell her a lie about the middle name because from day one hubby had always said leslie for middle name -girl or boy. So i told her that i am trying to get hubby to have anne as middle name - (that mine and sherees middle name) just incase she got something made for her with her name on it
