Lou I still have everything crossed for you but know it can be a hard time not knowing what will happen.
Holly, hey babe, another journal sticker here so I am going to join you and branch out a bit more.
WLAB, anyos, Possums, Buliej, infinity, Melbel, M2C, Dutchie a big  and 
I am jumping in to say today I booked an appointment with the new clinic's nurse to start the process for a cycle in November with my sister (ED). A small but important step and it feels good to have a plan!

Hi all- quick all about me post. Looks like I'll be back here cycling. My HCG tracking is Not Good (Not Good at all). Am going to FS on Monday result of which will most likely be an appointment for my 3rd D&C in 11 months!!!!! This best sums up how I feel:  I'm not even that sad - cried a bit but not much - but I am angry at the unfairness of this all...why can't we get what we want most...why does it have to be so hard....why can't someone tell us with certainty that it will work or won't work or will take X cycles....sorry for the rant.

I'm going to wait til Monday to explain what happened - not that it's a big mystery - but I'll know a bit more after I talk to my FS and have 1 more BT just to be 100% sure - right now they are 99% sure. My levels aren't even close to doubling (really far off) and as a single number are very, very low for where I am...and I've had a tiny bit of bleeding which is how my last m/c started....I know I have lost the baby - I can't explain how, but I do really, really just know deep inside - as well as from all the objective signs.
Loula - are you waiting to find out what the infection is? or what the implications for your baby are? how long do you have to wait - that's just awful.
I feel like after the injections, it's all just a series of very torturous waits...wait to find out how many fertilized, wait to find out whether they make it to day 2 (or 5), the TWW, the wait for the phone call with the results of the BT, the wait til the first scan, the wait til the first trimester is over (not that I've made it to these later stages)...and on & on...oh, and all the waits in the dr's offices and clinics - agh!
Sorry for being such a downer...

The Gp knows what the infection is he and covering FS saying they are not going to treat it until i show signs of it flaring up. ridiculas really as when that happens i would have already lost.
will wait the weekend out and speak with my FS on Monday

Hey girls,
buliej- I am so so sorry that this is happening, I can't imagine how difficult it must be to be possibly facing your 3rd d&c in <12mths. How utterly devastating and bloody unfair. Don't ever apologise for being a 'downer' you are more than entilted to feel upset and angry because of what your going through, your feelings are perfectly normal and completely OK.
Take care of yourself during this time, I'll be thinking of you hun.
Loula- How frustrating that the docs won't treat your infection until it flares esp if it has serious implications to your bub. I'm sorry you are in such limbo atm makes a hard time even harder ((hugs))
Holly- Great to see you back. Look forward to chatting with you and I'll be cheering you on when you start your cycle (which I know is soon  )
Dusty- How exciting to have the ball rolling for your next cycle I'll definitely be cheering you on.
to WLAB, M2C, anyos, Possums, CPie, infinity and melbel
have a great weekend ladies  |

Oh Julie, what a devastating news! I can't believe that this is happening to you again, it is seriously unfair. I do hope FS will have a decent answer to explain why...meantime, please take care of yourself!
Lou, I am feeling the frustration hun, although I don't understand the wait (can they prevent it from happening at all?), I hope the weekend goes quickly for you...
Dutchie, saw your sig, glad you have a plan, we could be cycling together hun!
Hi to everyone else!

Loula, sending you strength and hoping your infection is treated or goes away and hoping with everything I have that it will all be ok for you. Am thinking of you and hoping you get some answers and action tomorrow. xx
Buliej - I cannot tell you how sorry I am - rant and vent away, this is devasting, unfair and way too hard on you. I understand that you already know your baby is gone, I was the same, we just know dont we and I am so so very sorry. xx
Anyos, thanks for all the information you've given me - it's much appreciated. Will have lots of 'homework' to do in the coming weeks.
HollyBolly - Hello. Best of luck for your upcoming cycle, looking forward to getting to know you.
Dusty - Hooray for booking your appointment. I hope this cycle is the one. x
Hello to everyone else, hope you are all well.

Oh Lou I really hope it isn't what you think it is. This is such a hard path to take. My thoughts are with you.
Julie, I am so sorry. This is so unfair.
