Totally agree, I have joined other sites, and chatted on their forums, but this one beats them all, it's easy to use too. The people i have met here are the friendiest, compared to other site, some other sites I find are so clicky!! in with the clique!! you know what i mean!!!
I have posted on groups, and they dont seem to bother answering me, but here, everyone is great!!!

Love it!!!! xxxx


Rae, Ive never done acu. but did try Reflexology last year, the reflex did chill me out, and helped with a on going issue i had with my shoulder, but as for getting BFP, it didn't happen, I would say try it, but dont rely on it getting you pregnant!!

anna, no worries. I know ya not stalking!!! LOL!!! Ive been posting here since 2004, and have seen many girls come and go.... it's great when i see an old face that i may have already cycled with.....

Will post more laters, List to follow!!!!

Wow, this thread has grown a lot since I last posted, haven't been able to post as I've been very busy with work...

This will have to be a short post as I'm at work...


Hay Nicki - Have you had your blood results back from your FSH? How are you doing hun feel like I haveb't spoken to you in ages.. !

Shantala - Bless you with the icons I think they look great, I know what you mean though about taking over, its quite time consuming on here isn't it..?

Nerms - welcome to the thread, AF will be here before you know it, so will you be down regging for a month, becuase you say you won't be starting stims until 1st March.? Take Care

Rae - Welcome to the site, I wish you lots of luck with your cycle. I'm quite lucky in the fact that I don't have to pay for my IVF until a good couple of months after my tmt, I just have to pay for the drugs unfront..

Anna - Welcome, I agree, I love this site too, very sifferent from any other, everyone on here is so welcoming and very friendly, yes I'm sure lots of people have formed very good friendships, lets hope us ladies the March thread will become friends.. its so nice we can support each other.! Talke Care hun and wishing you lots of luck with your next cycle.

Really have to go, a big hello to anyone I've missed (sorry)

Take Care all and have a good day..

Love Lucy

Nicki hun yes 7.3 is good.. I think anything between 4 - 8 is good - as you know my FSH is quite high, but I've been preg twice I'm positive It can happen again...

I have my appoitment in the morning at 9am, not really surw what I'm going to ask, I think my main question will be if they know if my eggs are good quality, after all its quality not quantity... this will be my 5th cycle and I'm scared they'll turn to me and say I should now consider Egg Donor, I haven't been responding that great you see, but like I said before I've been preg so I know I can be again........

Anyway I'll let you know how it goes...

Not long till your appointment now..

Are you at wotk today?[/color

Nicky, love your list, it came out beautifully!!!!!!, your list rocks!!!! :wink:
by the way, congrats on your FSH!!!, that sounds great!!

I just called an accu doctor, but it seems kind of expensive, they said they charge $225 the first visit and then $100 each, is that what you guys pay too???...........I wanted to give it a try since a friend of mine told me that it can increase your chances of getting pregnant upto 50%, so you can imagine I really want to try it then!!

Hope everyone is doing great!!

Wow Nicky, what a great list! You're a star for doing that :D :D :D And congrats for your FHS - that's just perfect!

Holly, welcome to the thread!

Vicky, I don't know the prices for sure yet but the consultation at this place is free so I'll go and find out what it's all about and how much they charge. BTW, those are some great figures you're quoting, the increased chance of pregnancy according to your friend.... Seems worth the consideration at least!

Of course I'm not really banking on achievieng pregnancy through acu but I seriously need some stress relief and better sleep. :? But I admit, I chose this place because the founder is both a gynaecologist and an acupuncturist, so she should have a good basis for these types of things. I'll let you know what I learn at the consultation tomorrow....
