Good luck to you for tomorrow Staci - hang in there!!!

Hey ladies...well just as I thought - BFN. There wasn't much hope left in me as my period is still going strong (since Sunday!!)

Good luck to everyone else testing this month. I'll be back for another cycle in about 3-4 months.

Thanks Tracii - yes you have helped quite a bit...I will start researching asap.

Thanks Tracii - I will look into the website. Do you know if all acupuncturists recommend stopping acup while stimming?

Hi girls.

I am looking into acupuncturists and don't have many resources. Can you please help with what KIND of acupuncture works best...Chinese or Japanese?

I've heard that Chinese is a bit more painful and Japanese is less so...but I care about what's more effective in conjuction with IVF ...

Hey Jag,

Gatorade is a sports drink sold in the US and Canada (not sure about the UK) - but you may be able to find different brands of the same composition. I was told to begin drinking it about 2 days prior to EC and all the way through my 2ww...I am also prone to OHSS. I was told to drink 2 ...

Thank you for your kind words and support. I will do the test as advised, but my hope is nil at this point...flow is heavy and bright red.

I have allowed myself to cry, get angry - and dh has taken me out to the city for the day to help get my mind off things. I'll be taking about 3-months off til ...

Looks like a BFN for me :( AF arrived today and is a steady, heavy flow. I spoke with my doctor and he suggested I still test on Aug 11 and continue with prog. suppositories....is this normal protocol??

I will be buying Zita West's book for the next cycle and attempting acupuncture. Does anyone ...

Small change for me - I will be testing on Aug. 11...a full 24 hours longer

Colleen, so sorry to hear your news. I know it's painful and frustrating with all the physical and emotional work you've put into this cycle.

The same thing happened to me 2 cycles ago (when trying for IUI). I had over 40 follicles and my E2 level dropped drastically towards the end of the cycle ...

Good luck Debbie! Keep up the PMA.

I'm on day 5 of 2ww. I'm also itching to test early, but there's probably no point this early...or is there? I'm a little worried as my bloating has subsided and I'm feeling NOTHING (except for sore boobs, that that's prob the pessaries.)

If an embryo does not implant, do you always get blood, or can it go unnoticed?

Good luck Kagome and remember to get plenty of rest and mental relaxation (although it's easier said than done!)

I'm on day 3 of my 2ww. Started to get sore breasts yesterday, but my bloating has gone down...no signs of OHSS. Time seems to go by soooo slowly lately, and it's just the start of my ...

Debbie and Chanteq - good luck with your EC...PMA will get you far. Let us know how things work out.

Just one more day...hang in there! Good luck to you - I'll be thinking of you.
