Thanks so much ladies, especially Jen for the messages - they really do help when you feel like there is no one else that you can talk to. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that they are all much appreciated - I was in a pretty dark place when I posted yesterday.

I'd be delighted to be your cycle buddy this month Jen actually it always seems like we are about the same stage in our cycles. I will try and motivate myself to post more this month, I just hope that things go well after last month's disaster Hopefully the new "tricks" the FS suggested will help. And if they don't, then at least it seems like DH and I may have resolved our issues with doing IVF. We are going back to the FS on the 12th Aug to get things all sorted, hopefully so that we can go straight onto it if this cycle doesn't work out. From what he said the other day, it takes at least 6 weeks to get to egg pickup and embryo transfer, so we don't want to waste any extra time than we have to.

Toccara - about your DH's new job. That is great about the job but not so good about you being apart. My DH used to travel a lot for his old job, so I know how it feels. It's not much fun at all for you, and not really for them either. My DH always liked it for a few days and then was pretty much over it.

plc - That's great that your thyroid levels are back to normal. Glad to hear things are going well.

tutmae - Great news about the blood results and that you are ovulating. Sorry about the PCOS, although at least it sounds like it won't be so much of a problem for you. If you conceived before at least you should be able to again!

Easha - Good luck at the gyno today!

Hi to anyone else that I have missed, hope you are all having a nice day
