Toby - CONGRATULATONS!! Wishing you a happpy pregnancy with a beautiful healthy baby at the end! If you have an anxiety disorder can you talk to you doc and see if there is anything you can do to lesson the symptoms? While the first few months of pregnancy are scary for anyone you've waited for this for so long and deserve to enjoy it. Hoping you can find a way to be less anxious. I'm sure everything is going to be wonderful for you.

Paula - You're PUPO!! Congrats for two on board! Good luck with trying to stay sane and not think about it too much. thinking of you, sticky vibes galore and can't wait to hear your great news on Friday.

WLB - where are you at in your natural cycle? Hoping you get you miracle x

BecD - Crossing everything for your BT tomorrow. How are you feeling? Have you POAS?

Loula - BOL with your FS appointment. My heart broke when you wrote you'd transferred 23 embies in 14 cycles. It's you I find inspirational. Sending you strength and clarity for 'getting your head space right' xx

Dutchie - how are you doing? Gearing up for another round?

Hello to everyone else. Hope you are all doing well.

Toby congratulations!!! That's fantastic news, I'm so happy for you and wish you a easy, healthy pregnancy. I totally understand how you feel, I had a lot of mixed emotions/anxiety when I was pregnant with my son and am here if you need anyone to talk to. xxxx

Paula thank you for thinking of me. Hoping all is well with you and there's fabulous news just around the corner!

WLAB, Loula, Infinity, M2C and anyone else I've missed

AFM not much news, AF arrived and we're still on a break. Am enjoying the break from (almost) everything fertility related but have still managed to be invited to 3 babyshowers over the next 2 weeks... go figure! xx

Sorry I havent been in for a while guys. BFN for us on Monday which was pretty devastating. We have resigned ourselves to the fact that Murray will never have biological children which is a huge blow. Will investigate DIUI and DIVF next year, but have also submitted our application for adoption, so just seeing what happens now.

I can't keep going the way I have been for the last four years - infertility has taken me to the lowest of places, and Im not willing to go to those depths anymore. So time to protect myself for a bit and not think about it.

May come back and visit, but need a break for a while.
Sending you all my love and prayers, I think of you often xxx

Hi Everyone

It sounds like there is lots of happy and sad news in here, and I think that is why I stopped visiting this site for a while... Sometimes you just need to get away from it all.
I am back, and hoping for some advice and encouragement as I embark on my first round of IVF. I think I have seen some of you before, maybe on another thread...
AF just arrived today, and doctor putting me on some meds tomorrow for this cycle, then hopefully next cycle the IVF process starts. Very exciting and nerve racking too... Just don't want to get my hopes up that this could work!! But also want it so so badly it hurts. And I know you all know how I feel, so thank you for just listening....

I'm still trying to work out what is actually involved in the IVF procedure... my doctor has told me, but you know when you are in there, you just can;t get your head around it all. Any sites you guys know of that give detailed descriptions of what happens and when, and what all the drugs are and what they do etc?

H

Hi Babytruj, welcome to the thread, will encourage and support you all the way. what IVF protocol are you doing? Let us know specifics and one of us will be able to answer your questions. If you like private message me your postal address and I can send you a huge booklet my FS gave me that goes through most of the different protocols step by step. Best of luck for your first IVF cycle, hoping you get your BFP at the end of it. You can do this.

Hello to everyone else, it's so quiet in here at the moment. Not much going on from me. No AF (and it's late now) - just weird sbrown spotting for a week and a half, anyone know if this is normal for after a chemical pregnancy? Not sure if we will do a FET before the end of the year yet.

We really need some more good news in here. Thinking of you all always.

Hi friends

I havent posted for ages and I hope everyone is well

babytruj - I remember you "hi" - best of luck with your first IVF cycle

AFM: Just waiting for a surge on lh/ovulation testing, so we can do a FET, not a sign of a line on the urine tests, so I have no idea what my cycle is doing.

babytruj: good luck
wlb: not long to go for FET. got fingers crossed.

AFM: well i am still alive and kicking, i am just slack when it comes to getting on BB. have been busy .
i had acupuncture the other day and she said prob a little longer break for me would be good. looking at early 2010. jan or feb now for next cycle.
she said summer good time to do it.
so looks like i have a bit longer break now and i'll be feeling fantastic just so i can do another full IVF/ ICSI cycle and then gain 5 kg again. woo hooo.

lol.

good luck to everyone, wherever you are in a cycle or taking a break like me.
