Lou - I'm so sorry for you and DH. You must both be absolutely gutted. Give yourself as much time as you need to process. We're here for you if you need to vent. :cry:

Rio - WTF is your mother like! It sounds to me like your mother has issues that she hasn't dealt with and you cop it as a result. Next time she sends a barrage of insults your way, you sock it to her and let her know exactly what you think/feel. It's time she heard some home truths. You must be incredibly patient putting up with that. My mother would be out the door pretty smartly. You are an amazingly strong, intelligent and caring woman and you should never ever doubt that. How on earth did you turn out to be such an incredible lady with a mother like that? Your Father must have some awesome traits :)

Karen - congrats on hopping aboard the IVF journey again shortly. I really really hope this cycle is going to be the one for you. You've been through an experience that I can't even imagine feels like, and you SO deserve to be preggas and stay preggas. A whole heap of baby dust heading your way.

Tammy - lovely to hear from you again. Hop on board I reckon! What's your gut feeling?

Margi - keep on stimming away. :)

Macfamily - fingers crossed for you. Please don't beat yourself up about what you should have done. Our REs usually make decisions based on good scientific research. Remember, if this doesn't work out, you've got two lovely frosties ready to snuggle in!

Babyblu - so glad to hear you're felling a bit better. :)

Klinger - yeah for your ovary. I had a large dermoid cyst removed from one of my ovaries last year. So that little ovary is a little shrivelled and unique! It managed to produce a few follies though and i was very proud of it. When I came around from my anesthetic after the laproscopy to remove the cyst, the nurse by my bed told me that I'd had my ovary removed! Well!! Was a bit of a shock but I knew that was worse case scenario. It took four days for me to confirm with the hospital whether or not I'd had my ovary removed. WTF! To top that, when I went in for my pre-surgery consult a couple of weeks before surgery, the doctor read out somebody else's clinical notes, and told me that my doctor had felt a lump on my left ovary. I was a little confused as the cyst was on my right ovary and was found during an intravaginal u/s. I made sure that she wrote right ovary on my surgical notes. Unfortunately the public health system here is a little overloaded. It is no fault of the staff, but the processes and procedures that they have in place are under great strain because of the number of patients hospitals have to deal with. I'm definitely opting for a private OB to help me see this pregnancy through. Sorry...long tale.

Esther - yippee for your baby in a box!

Chilli - how are you doing?

Lauren319 - do you have a stinkin hangover today? I'm thinking of you.

AFM - it's a rotten day here today so I'm going to blob about doing SFA. I'm feeling fine. The tiredness stick hasn't beat me up over the weekend - funny that! It must have something to do with work. I've had a couple of mild waves of nausea which feel really odd as I'm used to nausea as part of my migraines. Quite a different feeling as it is just pure nausea with no other pain. Whenever the nausea hits, I think, 'What's this?' and then remember it's a side effect of pregnancy. That probably sounds really dumb but it keeps on surprising me. I'm definitely a bit funny on the smell side of things. Some smells make me dry retch. The pile of cat vomit on the floor didn't help this morning!! And trying to ward off the dog from eating it....blurghh! Said kitty cat is snuggling up next to me, covered in a blanky purring his little head off so I think he'll live.

All you other lovely ladies, have a fab rest of the weekend.

Thanks everyone. DH and i had a good cry and a long talk. We decided we won't give up just yet. We are going to try to get a consult with RE next week because he then goes in vacation. I have lots of questions. DH and I make nice looking embryos, so why so many BFN's? I may try to cycle again after a business trip I have in December. This next one HAS to be it.

Thank you all for your support.

Oh Lou, gosh, I am just soo sorry. WTF?! I am devastated and heartbroken for you. I was so sure that this was it for you...this really sucks. I'm glad to hear that you and DH talked and are ready to just keep going. Cause really...that is how we need to look at this...just keep going...and know that it is a numbers game...and that eventually it WILL work for us! Seriously, it will and we know it. Looking forward to hearing about your next steps...and meanwhile vent away...we deserve to. Big Hugs my friend.
