Kate, sorry I haven't been around for a while. WELL DONE YOU! I'm so pleased for you. I know what you mean about the 30 weeks, you never stop worrying. Look after yourself & keep your legs crossed. Try to rest when ever you can, difficult I know but worth it. Take care, love from Nicola.

Hi guys, sorry if I sounded a bit down the other day, I'd just been told I couldn't start IVF as my FSH level was too high.<br><br>I've never been anywhere else so not sure what other units are like but if you have a q you can always ring and speak directly to a dr if you need to which is really ...

Hoping to start a short protocol if everything ok, when AF arrives the beginning of Aug. Take care all. Nicola.

Wow what an amazing wealth of information this site provides. Thank you.<br><br>I't sounds a bit doom and gloom though, I'm hoping that my last day 1 (long story) FSH level at 17.5 was a blip and that it will all be back to normal next month. Spk soon, Nicola.

Not much I'm afraid but I think you need to drink lots of water which will help protect you from dehydation but not sure how that fits in with OHSS! Keep well, look after yourself. Nicola.

Kate, what kills me is that for a v long time we all avoided getting pg like the plague! It really is the one thing that we don't have any real control over and I think that's v hard to get over.<br><br>Take care, put your feet up (as much as is poss) ignore the washing/cleaning, it's not going ...

Talk about an emotional rollercoaster! Well done you. Take care. Nicola.

Sharon, Caz and Lorraine, I'm so sorry to hear your news. I was really routing for you, in some ways it's like going through it yourself and you hope desperately that it's going to be positive.<br><br>The shock and emotional turmoil does settle down, although for me, it was still a bit of a ...

Lorraine, I had a 'weak positive' result, when I had my first IVF cycle in March. The level should have been about 50-60 and mine was 7. It showed up as a v pale blue line on the home testing kit. Actually, as I was expecting a big fat negative, I was quite pleased that I had even got that far.<br ...

I'm keeping EVERYTHING crossed for you all. Keep positive. Keep us posted. Nicola.<br><br>Yes, Lisa is a boot and SO up herself!

My goodness is it compulsory to have a bloody nightmare with this stuff if your name begins with Trac?<br><br>You both seem to have had an awful time.<br><br>I'm so glad Traci, that your cousin has offered you her eggs, what a woman! Having said that, I'm sure that any of us would offer (not that ...

Hope you all keep them nice and snuggly warm. Lots of positive thoughts coming to you. This bit is poo. Keep us posted. Nicola. <br>

I've absolutely nothing useful to say on the subject, just wanted to say, <br>GOOD LUCK AND KEEP POSITIVE. Nicola

Hi Bel, I've had two prev IUI's in 1998 (got pg nat immed following last one, now have a beaut daughter). Also an IVF in March of this year, at the Hammersmith, but had a weak positive result. We have unexplained fertility and I'm now 40. <br><br>They've got some really nice staff but I think the Dr ...

Kate, please be positive. I'm sure it will happen for you this time. I know it's so difficult to continue to hope when your hopes are dashed yet again but it DOES happen. I know what you mean about the 16-18 weeks pg, I look at Olivia practically every night and think what a miracle she is. <br><br ...
