epayne - I agree with Bec if you have any clomid left or can get some i would take it and pray that you O on your own. DONT GIVE UP, I understand about DH not understanding it just does not seem as important to them as it does to us sometimes (well mine anyway) it took me 2.5 years to get my DP to do a SA. I completely understand about the nursery furniture i have brought heaps of baby clothes, shoes and other stuff off e-bay thinking i would fall pregnant soon and its heart breaking to see them in the closet. But you cant give up i use my baby things as inspiration when i feel like giving up. But i do understand why you want to get rid of them it will be easier for you emotionally. For christmas day good luck my thoughts will be with you as it wont be easy. Were staying home this year thank goodness. As for IVF i have been doing the caculations for us with were we will be doing it and besides needing around $7000 upfront you end up about $2000 out of pocket for that but then there is the doctor and hospital for egg retreival and then transfer is $2100. You would think you could get more help cause that's alot of money.
Bec - Good Luck with the trigger and having lots of fun after :-))
AFM: On CD 20 today and not confident at all this month have no systems at all. The place where i will be doing IUI and IVF gave me the name of a lady who does accupunture and chinese medicine that they send patients to and my first app was last Fri and she was really good the herbs taste like s***t but was really impressed with her so lets hope she can help.
WISHING EVERYONE LOTS OF BABY DUST AND STICKY VIBES

Bec GL catching that egg and hoping like crazy you will be celebrating extra for new years.
Rai, don't count your chickens just yet hun. What was the accupunture like. I have heard good things about people falling pg when doing it.
Well I'm CD1 today and af is already quite heavy. But at least I will be finished for xmas as we are hoping the rain stops and we can go to the beach. Well Dh and I had a chat this morning about everything (as I sort of lost the plot last night balling my eyes out). And we have decided to make an appointment with the fs in jan and discuss everything with him as we are going to stop, save and go back when we have the money to do ivf, plus I need to focs on my wieght and my mental state of mind. So I hope you don't mind I will pop in everynow and again but prob won't post until we start again. Wishing everyone the best of luck with all of your journeys.

Liz,
we'll miss you but a break could be just what you need. RElax and get reconnected with DH and then you can start your 2011 with a new plan. I sincerely hope things go beautifully for you when you start again. *hugs*

Hey all,
Sorry I have been MIA - been flat out this week & this weekend.... I hope you are all well. Will try to catch up for persies later in the week. Nothing to report here, other than I am hanging for the 27th cos that is when I will most probably test is AF doesn't show.
-
Jules, I'm waiting for the 1st Jan! GOOD LUCK!!!!
-
Same to you Bec. x
Hi to everyone else, will try to come back & do perssies
-
It's awfully quiet in here! I hope you are all enjoying a bit of a break for Christmas:)
Bec

Hi everyone,
Hope you guys have had more luck than me.
I got a BFN and very heavy AF. I guess at least my AF came this month.
I swear this was my month as i did everything absolutely right. I still cant see where it went wrong =(
Oh well.
Hope everyone still has a chance and have a great surprise.
-
Not me. Tested this morning, BFN :(
All I'll be getting for christmas is Big Fat AF! Probably tomorrow :( Oh well, better luck next month. Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and holidays!
-
What a bummer girls! M21SB; sometimes we can only do our best, and hope. It's not your fault. Hugs to you both

Hi girls
Sorry I have been MIA but have been busy trying to get my work done before I go on holidays at the end of the week. Won't try to do persies as it has been so long and I am doing this on my phone so I can't see anyones posts. Sorry to hear that a few of you got BFN's. Hopefully next month is the one. For those in the 2 week wait fx'd.
I am off to the dr tomorrow to see if the final round of clomid worked or if I am booking in for a lap. Won't be sad to not have to take the clomid any more. My moods have been horrendous this month and the flushes were worse. The increased dose played havoc with me. I think everyone else will like it better when the mood swings go too, lol. Will come back in tomorrow and let you know how the appointment went.

Hi everyone,
I hope you are all doing ok & not in too much of a mad rush leading up to Xmas Day.
M2OSB & Tasha - so sorry to hear you are both out :( It is so unfair. I most probably will be joining you - I tested just to see if the trigger was still in my system & it isn't & I don't think there is a baby growing in there b/c the test was neg, not even an evap line. Fark! So not what I want - this was our last shot until taking a break.... I hope it was just too early to test but something tells me AF will show over the next few days, although my bbies are still so sore... haven't told DH I POAS.... looks like I can drink New Years Eve away...
Shan - best of luck with your appt.
Bec - Any pg symptoms?
-
Jules, I super hope you were too early! When is AF due?
AFM: PG symptoms aplenty but I'm attributing everything to the Pregnyl cause that's apparently what it does. I have it all: nausea, sore bb's, peeing a lot, thirsty, crampy, totally P'd off with DH, tired etc. But I was told to expect that with the pregnyl. I still have another week untill I can test cause I have another shot on Sunday and I have to wait up to 6 days after that. I least I wont be able to sneaky POAS! I can't drink New Years because AF is due on the 1st, not that I'm a huge drinker usually anyway, but after such a crappy year I wouldn't mind welcoming in a new year IYKWIM!
I so bad want this month to be our month girls! Let's hope there's a few BFP soon,
Merry Christmas to everyone, have a great day!
Bec

Bec - Hoping they are 'real' pg symptoms. I hope you can get a BFP for New Year - that would be awesome. FX.
I am out - I know it. bbies are not sore today & I have lower abdo cramping. I think AF will be here tomorrow or by the 27th :( So, I will be taking a break for about 9 months or so as I am emotionally spent after 26 months of ttc and another 3 m/c. I told DH today that I am open to doing IVF but not now. I really want to try to lose weight & eat a low GI diet without the ttc stuff on top of it. So, I have decided I am going to try to commit to two days at the personal trainer and two nights of yoga - I think that is doable.
I just want to say to everyone that I am really appreciative of all of your support. I know there have been days when I have felt so alone but knowing I can log on here & 'talk' to you ladies has made this time much easier than I could have imagined. I wish you all the very best and success in getting your BFP! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I will come in from time to time and check on you all & hope to see some posts very soon announcing pg. I will be floating around the BB site - probably more in the health & fitness part. Take care all Jules xx

Good afternoon all,
Bec~ I have my FX tightly for you and am praying for you new years BFP darl. Good luck.
Rhi~ I am still praying AF will be a no show for you darl, I wish you all the very best hun in whatever you decide to do. Good Luck.
Well this is my first cycle on Clomid and what a ride is has been and I'm only at CD19 today....woke up this morning and I started crying for no reason at all. I just feel so left out of everything right now and I'm sure it's the Clomid rollercoaster of emotions. I even feel like DF doesn't want me any more and I don't feel good enough for me at all. But that is NOT the case at all I know he loves me to bits and will do anything for me but I just don't feel it right now, and it's not due to anything that he has said or done. The things we have to put up with, sometimes I really hate being a woman IYKWIM. But anyhoo on a good note I FINALLY got my +ive OPT today so will be BDing tonight I would think. Haven't been overly active in the BDing this month we have so much on right now by the time we get to bed we pass out before our heads hit the pillow which is becoming very frustrating for me. Oh and I have also had EWCM for the past few days as well. So it seems like I am about to enter the dreaded 2WW in the next day or 2.
p.s Sorry for the lack of persies in here girls but I'm in no way at all educated enough to give advice on anything to do with IVF and don't understand most of things you ladies talk about, hence the lack of personals. But I do have my FX tightly for all of us to get our BFPs very soon and sending you all out tonnes of baby dust and sticky vibes.
Merry Xmas to you all I hope you all have a safe and lovely Xmas.
Take care all

Evening my lovely ladies,
Firstly a very Merry Christmas to you all, I wish you all just one thing, a sticky BFP in the very near furture that you all very much deserve.
So sorry it has taken me so long to post, thanks to Bec for letting everyone know I had safely given birth, you're a legend, I've been thinking of you lately too hun, hope you're doing ok. Much love!
So I am very pleased to announce that Miss Olive arrived at 8:03am on Saturday 11th December. She was born screaming via forceps after a 7.5 hour labour. She is just perfect. Whilst we didn't know what we were having I was utterly convinced it was a boy, needless to say I was very pleasantly suprised.
Cant wait for the long overdue BFP's on here, its about time there were many.
Wishing you all a wonderful day tomorrow!
Xxoo

Jules- I'll miss you heaps!!! I totally get the having time for you think, it's hard to do when you spend most of the time trying to force your body to do things it doesn't want to do, isn't it? Hopefully we'll hear that you've conceived naturally and you don't need IVF! I sincerely hope life is kind to you, becasue you deserve it so much. Enjoy your little one, and have a brilliant Chirstmas.
Clairesmummy- Clomid can be awful in terms of messing with your emotions!! It's good to hear you're o'ing and hopefully your TWW has a nice BFP at the end! GL
KEli- SO nice to hear from you! Glad to hear baby Olive is finally here, and doing well. I'm finding Christmas a little hard, we would have had a bubs by now, but I am inspired by stories like yours. I have changed by train of thouights on things: a baby will come to us when the time is right (but I really hope it's soon!). Enjoy your beautiful Olive this Chirstmas, and a brilliant 2011 to you too.
AFM: I'm so grumpy it's not funny! I'm trying to refrain from snapping at DS, so instead poor DH cops it! I don't envy my family being around me tomorrow...I'm going to take my book and find a quiet corner somewhere to disappear to if I need some time out! Best go and make sure everything is ready for Santa ;) Have a great one everyone!
Bec
