hi ladies.

Mrs Mac thanks for your concern, I really appreciate it. I'm sorry to hear that ovulation wasn't all that successfull for you this month. what is the next step for you?

Suzy and skyelar Good luck with your egg transfers. Ske i know this is your first time. I was so nervous the first time. At my clinic you have to have a full bladder. I was so desperate to pee after the transfer and the 20 minute wait, but I was terrified to go incase they fell out!!!!


As for me, this is the lowest I have ever felt to be truthful. Even after the two failed attempts at IVF, I was able to pick myself up and look forward, but for some reason I am stuck after this natural attempt. I'm in so much pain. I do usually get achey periods but this is something else! I think it confirms to me that at some point this month I was pregnant. That makes it even worse for me. Maybe there is something wrong with my endometrium. that just makes me worry even more. What if it is something awful that takes ages to put right!?

this all makes me think: all along we thought it was my husband that was preventing us getting pregnant, but if I was pregnant this month (and I'm sure I was), then ultimately, it's my fault I'm not pregnant now.

I've started taking Agnus Castus (vitex) in a hope to help organise my hormones ahead of our next attempt at IVF. I suffer from high prolactin when I'm stressed, so I'm sure it's through the roof right now. Taking vit B6 to combat that. I'm no longer drinking tea or coffee and am having royal jelly once a day. Chinese medicine says it helps boost fertility! Anyone with any more tips for me?? I need all the help I can get!!

Good luck to everyone else.
