Tiger i am so sorry to hear your bad news. Hopefully 2011 will be the year of babies for us all!!

I went to see my doctor yesterday and he still seems very positive that we will get there. Our frozen embbie is waiting for us when we are ready so we will probably go again at the end of January. Last ...

Hi Girls,

Sorry for my lack of communication. Everything has been crazy busy with my sisters wedding which was lovely.

Unfortunatley my news isnt so great. I got my period on day 6 of the 2ww and had confirmation today that results are negative. I am devastated as expected and trying to ...

Hi Girls.. so i am officially now in the 2WW!!! I had the ET yesterday and all went well with the transfer of a healthy 5day blastocyst. With any luck we may also have 1 to feeze but will find out today. I asked them to put them both in but they talked me out of it which was a little frustrating ...

Tiger that is amazing news. I have heard that is rare to get a false 'positive' reading but very common that people will test 'negative' and then have a positive end result. So from the sounds of it you might be pregnant!! Yayyyyy.. keep us updated on your news.

I will be testing on the 9th ...

Hi girls, I know this sounds awful but it is so reassuring to hear that you are also feeling negative during your second cycle. I am currently going through my second cycle and am finding it so much harder than the first cycle. I dont feel remotely excited about it this time and am kind of waiting ...

Hi Tiger4444, I had a failed first attempt and am currently going through my second cycle. I will be having the embryo transfer on Friday 26th November. My doctor learnt a few things from my first attempt which they have altered and fixed for my second attempt so therefore I am hopefull that my ...

Chrisbaby- I am also with Dr Ken Leong. My situation is that I have PCOS (I was diagnosed early this year) and my husband has a low sperm count (he was diagnosed in June). Dr Leong has a lot of hope for us however I am still terrfied it may never work. It feels like such a long journey and I am such ...

Good luck to both of you girls. Dont loose hope quite yet because you never never know. My nurse strongly advises against home pregnancy tests because they so often give an incorrect reading. My fingers are crossed for you. x

Hi Girls, I hope you dont mind me coming in on your post so late...

Chrisbaby I am also a Melbourne girl and am with Monash IVF in Richmond. Which clinic are you going through?

Phyona, I am sorry to hear about your unsuccessful first attempt. I recently had a failed first cycle and am currently 1 ...

Hi Grumpsuk, I had a similar situation to you. Spotting on day 7 which turned into a full period. I was devastated as i too had convinced myself that it had worked. I am now into cycle #2 and feeling less excited this time round. I think i had false hope and expectation on the first round however i ...

Nearlyder I am so sorry to hear your news. That must have been just awful and i can imagine how insensitive the doctors would have been. I have found most of the doctors treat the situation with little compassion and empathy. I know it is their job but it still doesnt make it any easier. Sometimes ...

My fingers are crossed for you. It really is hard to describe how awful the 2WW is. It is almost unbearable! I am kind of glad that i already know that it has failed and i havent had to wait until friday to find this out. It has helped ease the stress a bit over the last few days even though we are ...

Hi Girls,

I got my period on Monday afternoon and can safely say i have failed my first IVF attempt. I am feeling devastated but am hopeful for the second round. They may have learnt something from the first round that they can fix for the second round. My husband is an emotional wreck and it is ...

On wow i didnt realise you were in the same stage. It is so lovely to know that there is someone else out there in the world feeling as anxious and uncertain as I am, and who is also counting down the hours until 15/10. I am sorry to hear that you have had a rough time- what sort of issues did you ...

No they didnt tell us why the others didnt make it. They think it might be poor egg quality because apparently the more eggs you produce the poorer the egg quality. There are always so many unknowns in this process and that is what makes it all so hard. I am hoping and praying that the little ...
