Hi Alice,

First of all, congratulations on your BFP - you must feel so happy and relieved!

I haven't posted on here for awhile as we've had disappointing results from IVF so far. Sometimes it feels easier to lurk than to post.

I see that you're in the Blue Mountains. I am in Western Sydney and I was wondering which IVF clinic you went to?? I am with IVF Australia in Westmead.

I am very interested in DHEA and Clexane. My FS is not really interested in investigating why our egg numbers are so low and why our embryos are not implanting. He believes my failure to fall pregnant is related to excess weight. DH and I are taking 6 months off IVF to deal with the weight issue, but I also have a gut feeling there is an underlying issue not related to my weight. I'd love to try DHEA and Clexane but don't know how to bring up the topic. Do you have any suggestions?

Again, congrats - it is extremely heartening to know that this IVF caper can work for some of us older wannabe mums!

Vicki
