Hi everyone,

Pash - You poor thing, it can't be good feeling like you are. I'm sorry but I can't remember what your history is, but just remember that most women have successful pregnancies after a m/c so the odds are probably very good that all we be OK this time. Good luck with the scan, and try not to stress when you don't see a heart beat, remember it is very early so it's not likely to be there.

Mouse - sorry our AF arrived. I hope this cycle is a more successful one for you.

Megsmum - I think the doctors are less likely to intervene early when you already have a child as they don't see it as urgent. Also most doctors will not act until you've had 3 m/c and that's because one or two are so very common. I think I'm only getting such action because of my age and not having had any kids of my own.

Claire - We were on the Sorrento to Queenscliff ferry when we saw the dolphins and whales. Dolphins are there regularly but it's pretty unusual for whales to be around at this time of year. We only went on the ferry on a whim when we drove past it, and just got on as it was leaving so I think it was meant to be.

Lee - I'm glad all is well with you.

Welcome Princess & Jodie - I hope your stay in this thread is a short one.

Salt - If you are not 100% well your temps can be all over the place.... like mine was last cycle when I had a cold.

Bun - Great news that you got in to the OB that you wanted. It's also good news that there was just the one follicle as that's makes it very likely that it's just the one bub in there and it is clearly thriving with results like that. I'm so paranoid about multiples as when I was scanned last I had two follicles and that was without clomid.... but that is just one of the downsides to ttc later in life like I am.


Well it's CD10 for me today. I've started taking evening primrose oil this cycle and am having a daily dose of full cream icecream. Both are said to help with fertility, in particular fertile CM so here' s hoping it will help. If it doesn't at least I will have had a nice dessert each day. I'm trying to lose weight seriously now as I know IVF has better success rates in women who are within the healthy BMI. I haven't worked mine out but I know I wouldn't be in the healthy range. I'm 79 kilos and only 5 foot 3. In my estimation I need to lose at least 10 kilos - probably more like 15-20. I've lost 2 kilos in the past three months so if I keep going the way I am it would take forever to lose what I need to. So from today onwards it's healthy food for me.

Sorry to anyone I've missed.
