Well I had my scan today and all was cool for me to start injecting tonight!! woo hoo. My SIL also starts her injections tonight. Still think its freaky!

As for my health kick! all is going great. while I have not lost much as far as weight goes I have lost a few cm's of certain places(waist, hips, arms, thighs, bust) I also feel much better. I am giving it a rest today due to the witch but will be back on track tomorrow!!

Cazz

Cazz
congratulations on starting injections and losing those cms - it is all about feeling better and good about yourself not obsessing over the scales -
though they are an incentive for sure seeing the kgs dropping -but you notice the snug clothes fitting better first sometimes.

it is freaky but we are sending your both luck ....and strength

Amanda - it is good to be first for once -turning overcast in Sydney now

morning ladies

well, it's 11dpo and I've been getting crampy feelings for at least a day (first twinges on 7dpo which i'd hoped were implantation-related) and the breast tenderness is receding...looks like I'll reach the 2 year anniversary of TTC without some miracle success...

the rainy day here in Canberra suits my mood...

amanda :(

Ali - Thankyou, and congratulations....that's great news.

Leis - Good luck, I hope the wait is worth it.

Cazz - Glad to hear that you are able to go ahead with the cycle.

Trish - I have not seem AF yet, but I'm feel a bit teary, so I think it will be soon.

Amandaw - Sorry to hear that, but hey, it's ain't over till the fat lat sings (and I'm not singing yet).

Hi guys, popping in to say hello.

Leisa & Amanda, hope you're holding out ok. And as Trish said it's definately not over yet.

hope everyone else is going well in their cycles.

My pessaries have been increased to 6 a day due to low P4 levels and have started spotting. I checked with my clinic & nurse told me it's probably a result of my low P4 (it was really low).
I guess I'm ok about it but it will be a long week.

Take care

Amanda & Tam - try and hold your hopes up guys, there is still hope until the evil one arrives.... :crossfingers:

Hi guys just thougt I would check in and say hello, just got home from work and it was absolutely shocking, so busy, Im sitting here late at night even though I have an early start in the morning. Had my blood tests yesterday and everything went well so I have commenced sniffing, I forgot how bad it tastes, I just have to work the extra thousand shifts to pay for it. Hope everyone is doing well and holding on to your dreams and hopes.

shazey - good luck with the syranel! When do you expect you might be having OPU?

Hi Keen I am expecting to have OPU in early to middle November depending on how things go. Last time it was delayed a few days because I had not down regulated enough, hopefully this time it will be fine, thanks for your well wishes, its much appreciated and needed

Hi Shazey
great news on sniffing
yes it tastes so bad but lucky you forget before the next sniff ... last nights was so bad I couldn't wash it away so I had a chocolate bic -that does the trick :)

they should come with a box of chocolates I think...
