[nicjay]

Hi ladies,

Jen - Hey there cycle buddy How's it going?

Joey - Have fun skiing, you lucky thing!

KL - Stay away AF!! I really hope it was just too early for you to POAS.

plc - Awww, thanks for thinking of me Things are a bit cr@appy unfortunately, see below

pbstar - Congratulations!

smilantu - Stupid AF!! I'm so sorry she arrived

jenushka - hun, I found that talking to a counsellor really helped me. I was OK to start with after my m/c and then fell in a heap about 2 months later, which was when I decided to see a counsellor. It still took a while longer to get things in perspective, but it did really help.

Hi everyone else and to all the new ladies.

AFM, well not much good news here, basically my IUI was scheduled for today and it has been cancelled. No one seems to really have much idea what happened this month, but I started tracking on Mon and my prog levels were already higher than they should have been, and they have continued to rise over the last 2 days. One clinic nurse thinks that I may have Oed on Monday, in which case we are in the TWW and in with a real chance because we BDed a few times over the weekend and on Mon night. Another clinic nurse though thinks that the rising prog may be due to the cyst on my ovary breaking down, in which case my lining will be shot and we will have no chance this cycle. So who the b@#$%y hell knows? It was obviously going to be a waste of time doing the IUI today, so we've cancelled it. I can honestly say that I not really even sad about it, I'm just really really annoyed. Why can't something go right for us for once??

I'm not really expecting to have any good news in 2 weeks time, and we see the FS next week to talk IVF. I think he may offer us another IUI seeing as this one was a bust, but I'm not going to waste anymore time on Clomid now. It has not done its job for 2 of the 3 cycles I have taken it, and I'm not willing to do another one and risk another cyst which may stuff up an IVF cycle. I knew I was right to be reluctant to take Clomid again, stupid friggin drug!

So we will almost certainly be starting IVF when AF arrives. I may be a little scarce around here until then, but I will look in from time to time and try to post. I'll be thinking of you all and hoping to see many more BFPs!
