what are auto-immune suppressant drugs?
Here is what I take
Utrogest, Utrogestan, Progynova, low-dose aspirin
then as recommended by my RE, I also take the following vitamins and minerals: EVit, Magesium, Folic Acid, Zinc+Selenium & prenatal vitamin.
I have to admit, I've become a much better pill swallower since I started doing IVF! :D

I think the aspirin has an effect on the blood flow/blood clots and helps to avoid miscarriage.

hi girls!

I hope with this post I can spread some baby dust to those of you waiting -- Today we saw our precious little embryo on the screen with its beating heart. Simply and truly amazing. We left with huge smiles and a very nice picture...
We go back in 3 weeks for the next scan and sincerely hope our good fortune continues to grow and develop.

I hope so much that you will all have the chance to have this experience, it is more than worth the wait.

Have a great weekend,
xx summer

Hello Ladies,

Firstly, Summer woo hoo you saw your precious bean on board, hope all goes well for the next 8 months.

Carolyn, not long for you now.

Hi to everyone else,

Sorry I have been away for so long, the clinic in Prague offered us a date for 5th March which we accepted. So long story short, after doing much soul-searching etc I decided not to go ahead with it. So that is it. Right now I am happy with the decision and also with my life and if in the future I'm not, well I shall deal with it then.

Thank you all for your support and I wish you all the best for your futures - sending you lots of baby dust and happy wishes.

Pauline x

Dear Pauline,
It sounds like you are in a good place with your decision, and I am happy for you!
There is nothing like going through tmt -- whether it be DE, regular IVF or whatever, when your heart, soul, mind & body aren't there 100% to support you. I'm sure you have made the right choice for yourself right now.

I sincerely wish you & DH all the best the future has to offer
xx summer

Hi Carolyn,
I am still around. Just waiting it out. How are you? Did she begin the stimms yet? Fill me in I am way out of the loop.

Pauline, we don't know each other well, I don't post as often as I used to. I just wanted to say hello to you and to wish you the very best in all things. Thank you for your support. We are here.

Summer,
Hello again. Just popping in to say hi. Check your PM :D

Hi Kelly, hope you are all doing well. Thinking of you.

Jenbabes, are you reading? Thinking of you.

Love to you, chriss

hi egg-heads,

carolyn, you must be getting soooooooooo close to starting. Are you getting excited? Sending you lots of baby dust and PMA! The prep time till ET really goes smoothly (as long as your lining cooperates!) -- the 2WW is the same like always...It is too bad nothing can help that go by more quickly -- Wishing you all the best.

chriss - thanks so much for your message. I do hope your wait is getting shorter as the days are getting longer!

big hello to kelly and jenb!

I am hanging in there -- my next scan is next Tuesday. DH calls it the next photoshoot....thought that was really funny....He has been coming to all the appts so far... It can be quite nervewracking at times not knowing what is going on in there, but I try to keep my PMA and think about how lucky I am to have gotten this far.

take good care,
xx summer
