hi krikkit - good luck with your journey

we started trying Oct 2006 and started IVF October 2008. Went straight to IVF due to PCOS, and DH's motility and mobility issues. I also had a large dermoid tumor removed in that ttc naturally time. I was also on metformin (horrid stuff).

Our first IVF cycle included BFN for both the fresh transfer; and the FET in Feb 09. WIth the first cycel i was pretty sure it was going to work... just felt lucky. So was devastated when it didn't.

Did another full stim cycle in March 09 and got our first and only BFP that month (now nearly 26weeks). We have 2 frosties as well. with our BFP I was already planning our next full stim cycle as I felt so much like it hadn't worked and was not confident in the frosties.

I think that was a protection mechanism. But i even made DH ring the clinic cos I couldn't handle hearing the bad news at work again..... so i was floored and didn't believe him when he said it's a BFP! (it's still sinking in lol).

So for me, I was really hopeless at 'telling'. And i tried really hard not to read all that much into the 'symptoms' of the TWW (although that was very difficult).
