    now i will leave a proper hello and welcome to the new ladies in the thread, hope you guys find it very helpful

    i cant remember who commented on things happening fast for me (sorry) but yeah i am feeling the exact same thing we seen the dr about the actual ivf in december and fingers crossed everything goes to plan i could be pregnant on feb 13th!!!!! pretty exciting, i have started my meds to help thiken my lining and my cousin started the nose spray today and needles tomorrow so all go at this stage

    i started taking elivat vitamins last week, i advise anyone that starts taking them to definately take them with food. within 10 minutes of taking it i was throwing up i think i have an aversion to vitamin tabs though in the past they have made me feel queezy but never throw up, since i take them with food no probs at all.

    i need to make sure i pop in more i missed out on heaps, take care ladies

    Hi ladies

    Tammara that's so exciting that things are moving for you with IVF. I have my fingers crossed for you. Feb 13 isn't far away!

    Re OPKs, I buy them in bulk from ebay - so much cheaper compared to the chemist.

    I got the results from my lap today - everything was 100% in perfect working order. So in a way it's good news, but it still means that it's a mystery as to why we haven't conceived. My FS has said to try for another 3 months on clomid and if no luck, then we'll need to turn to IVF. So I'm really hoping that it happens for us soon. Not sure if I'm ready to do IVF in 3 months, even though I'm so desperate to have a bubba. Guess we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

    Porsche, make sure you get your lap pics from your doc - it's not every day you get to see your uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes!

    Wow I didn't know they could do that lol. That will be very interesting to see. I'm apparently 2nd on the list for Monday. I'm getting really nervous now.

    How many cycles of Clomid have you already done? I'm glad you are in the clear. It's a load of your shoulders at least.

    Hi Porsche

    I was second on the list too and had my op at around 8:30am. There wasn't much of a wait. DH stayed with me until just before they wheeled me in, so see if you can have some support stay with you for as long as possible.

    I'd done 2 rounds of clomid before my lap and once AF arrives I'll be back non clomid but only 25g dose, so hopefully thee side effects will be minimal on such a low dose.

    Good luck on Monday - you'll be fine. The op was much less of a big deal than I thought it was going to be.

    Thanks for the info and well wishes. DH is going to stay with me and I think he'll hang around with book in hand lol.

    Hopefully you don't get many side effects on the lower dose. I'm going to be on my 7th cycle when AF arrives in the next couple of days. I feel FS waited too long to have this lap booked for me. But any way not much I can do about it now.

    I have an appointment with QFG on the 17th as well. I'm tired of the emotional heart ache each month. I need to be more pro active.

    Tammara - oh, wow! I will be hanging for your post on the 13th! That is awesome news. Best of luck

    Mez - That is good news about all being clear... GL on the Clomid. I hear ya about the side effects - I am on my last day of it & the hot flushes are shocking atm. I am at work but feel like I need a really cold shower! I have been drinking so much water my kidneys can't cope!

    Today is my last day of work - I am taking Long Service Leave to concentrate on ttc - getting healthier (diet & exercise) etc.... I am hoping the break from work will assist and I fall pg whilst on my leave

    Better go do some work.

    Have a great weekend all

    Hi girls!
    tammara- how exciting that IVF cycle is getting so close. Hopefully it all goes well for you. Fingers crossed!

    mezmoz- I'm glad your lap didn't show up any nasties, but it's annoying not knowing why. I hope you get your answers soon.

    Porsche-good luck for you lap

    RhiChiChi- I really hope your break is just what you need. GL with your TTC journey, and enjoy your leave!

    Any floaters- hope all is well with you.

    AFM- I'm day 34 today, 13 DPO. I did an early HPT this morning and BFN. I fiugured as much. So, AF should be here right on time tomorrow. Oh well, back to FS to see what follows 7 rounds of clomid...

    Good luck to you all this month, I hope it's your BFP time,

    Bec
