Re: BFN: A poem

That is a very pretty poem. I think you very accurately captured the frustration, torment and sadness of what is happening here. I hope that someday you can put a happy ending on that poem and know that it wasn't all for nothing. I have been trying to get pregnant for 10 years and I am still waiting ...

Re: Phrases I never want to hear again!

From a friend: "Don't worry about it, it(infertility) will go away in time."

Re: 1st timer

I was very worried about OHSS, I have heard that it can be awful. The doctor told me that OHSS is very common but rarely a serious problem. He said that even if I did get OHSS that it shouldn't affect my chances of pregnancy. My doctor said one of the best things to do is just staying positive. A ...
