Hey Girls

Well i'm 3.5kgs down now, i'm sitting on 100kg so i need all the encouragement i can get!! I started off at 70kgs when i started all this fertility treatment, i think it was the injectables that did it but clomid has a bad rep for putting on weight too!!

Those OPK tests are pretty accurate at detecting the LH surge and if you are using fresh sperm they are great! Inseminating on the day of the surge and the next day should cover you. Not so much with the frozen donor as timing needs to be a little more accurate than a 2 day window, hence the trigger injection with HCG so you can pretty much be certain that you will ovulate 36-40 hrs later. Frozen sperm doesnt last as long as fresh.

D&M after the baby is born you can apply to the family court for a parenting order, so if anything were to happen to you, your partner would get automatic custody of the child. That is from what i understand. Ironically if you were to separate, your partner has more rights to the child then when you are together. They have rights to shared custody and also are required to pay maintenance amazingly.

Kim never tried 25mg, i guess because of her age... our fertility is probably not as great as someone thats 21 so our doctor just started her on 50mg. She always got one or two on 50mg and always got 2 or 3 on 100mg so i wouldnt be too worried about getting 10 follies!! Good luck with your next scan!

Ursula you will have to keep off those footballs eh? I hope you are feeling well tho and you dont have to wait too much longer!!
