Hey WBM - I used Dr Bowman at Sydney IVF - although I didn't do IVF, I had assumed that was our next step (he was the one who monitored me on Clomid). He is absolutely brilliant, not easy to get into though. I also have another friend who used him for her successful IVF baby last year - and she raves about him. My sister used Dr Alison Ghee (from memory), she shares an office with Dr Bowman. She has had two successful pregnancies through SIVF.
FYI - I have a friend who used IVF Australia, although she did conceive I don't believe they are as good.
Good luck!
Hi Everyone
Just thought I would pop in as I will be joining the Clomid journey next cycle as well. Have just had my first appointment with my Ob/Gyn and he has given me a script for Clomid to start next cycle as I was to late to start this cycle by the time I seen him. He did examine me and found nothing of concern at my first appointment and DF had his SA as well and his swimmers are fine as well. We are praying that the Clomid does the trick for us so I won't need to have my tubes checked, but if that's what has to be done for us so be it. Not sure what to expect with the Clomid, my DR has put me on 2 tablets a day from CD5-CD9 then a BT at CD21 to see if I O or not. Can't wait to get to know you all in here and hopefully give you all a bit of support along the way.
How does everyone keep up with all the news!? I have trouble keeping track of anything more than 3 posts ago! Here goes:
Pumpgirl-Congratulations! (sorry if im a little late!) and thankyou, it does give me hope!
RhiChiChi-I haven't found clomid too bad. It sux you had no luck on it, fingers crossed for the IUI. I have looked into IUI, just incase.
Becnxavi- hope your feeling better soon, i hate waiting to find stuff out!
N2l-Looks like you have a fun weekend planned. Let's hope it's a lucky one
ShanShan- I have a script for primolut, but i haven't used it yet. I actually had AF when i saw my GYN and he gave me the clomid script so i started straight away. I don't think the SE are that bad because he didn't mention anything about it to me, only clomid SE.
Wannababymumma- Good on you! You tell them. I hope you can get some answers asap!
Clairesmummy- Welcome, i have just started clomid. Advice (as from ladies in here) take them at night, then hopefully you won't get any side effects. Oh and use preeseed (sperm safe lube) heard good stuff about it,i am using it also. Good luck!
Phwew! I think thats everyone? Gosh i feel exhausted!
AFM- I called Monday for my BT results. My GYNO said my progesterone was at 13, but i was having strong pains a couple of days before my BT. He said that he is confident that i ovulated because i took my tablets late (days5-9) so it was probably late. I have also had lots of CM since Monday when all cycle i have had none, is that a sign? Im CD28 today and no sign of AF, but i have no idea how long this cycle will be either
HI guys,
Porsche- I can't believe you've managed to wait so long to announce, but I get it! I'm so excited for you! ENjoy telling everyone
I can't remember who asked about primolut. I've taken it quite a few times, and haven't really had any side effects except for a more painful period. Usually it's abit lighter too. It's not too bad.
AFM: I still forget to ring and get my BT results, but I figure whaty will be will be, so I'm not stressing about it. I'll probably ring monday, becasue if I did o then I'll be finished TWWing by then and I can get a BT if AF doesn't turn up.
I'm still feeling awful so I'm offf to bed.
Hope everyone else is well,
Bec
I went over to the hospital on thursday at about 1am they decided to keep me in over night to see dr in the morning and broke my waters at abou 10am ish and contractions started from then up untill about 6am friday, unfortunately i only got to 3cm in the whole time very frustrating but in the end i had an epidural and that helped heaps. So we ended up having a c section and he was born yes i did say HE, what a shock it was when the dr said "he is a whopper".
His name is Dylan Leslie
weight 9 pound 12!!! no wonder he wasnt coming on his own
measured 51.5 cm long
head was 38 cm i think
So far ive been able to give him 3 feeds and expressed a couple for him.
Im feeling ok considering, dad has been absolutely WONDERFUL!!!! he is a natural.
