    becnxavi - I have been much more tired than normal since the general anaesthetic too (but not sure if it that or just general stress - we are renovating our house and that combined with the fertility thing and work is wearing me down).

    I have been seeing a naturopath that is really great but I am beginning to wonder if it is worth all of the expense and hassle. The herbs & supplements I am on are really expensive and I had been wondering if it would be better to stop them and go to accupuncture so all of your comments are interesting (however up until the laparoscopy I had never felt more healthy and alert)! BTW - you definitely shouldn't do full on naturopath drugs and clomid - but your naturopath would know what you can and can't have.

    Mez Moz - sorry to hear AF came but at least it did. I have real trouble with getting AF to come, which is never good for ov. So at least by you getting your AF you may be right to go again in say 10-20 days?!

    Tammara - good luck!!

    Thanks for all the comments re: alternative therapies & Clomid. I would certainly only go to an alternative therapist that I have used in the past. I have only used them when ttc anyway, so they would know my history.

    Mez - Sorry to hear AF showed & on Valentines Day. AF for me isn't due til Saturday coming, so if she aint there then, I'll test Sunday with FMU. I hope you can find peace when working with the preg mums in yoga. It will certainly be tough

    2009 - How long have you been seeing the Naturopath? It did take me a little while to conceive (DD)whilst in the care of one, but if you aren't feeling any better about ttc, then I would probably stop. My Naturopath worked not just on my ovaries etc... but also my emotional well-being. Best of luck with whatever you decide to do.

    Hi Tammara,

    So glad everything went well & it was fairly easy. Glad to hear you are getting some r & R. I hope it only takes the one cycle (it did for my gf, who was ttc for 4 yrs prior to IVF!). Frustrated mentioned you have to wait 10 days - is that to confirm your are pg?!
