Hi Chicks, we are true blue troopers here aren't we? I thought the thread had gone disappeared into the oblivion but here we are - still hererere!!Thanks Ems and Thanks Kery. Well, just a little one from me - I am back on ivf rollercoaster myself now - Day 6 today.
Kery - yep life sucks sometimes but we move on and we manage ay.
Ems, your twins are already 4 months old? My nieces are now 9 months - they are getting very person-like now if you know what I mean!! They watched their first half a length of a full movie last weekend - and that was Sound of Music hee hee. They are both keen on singing voice of Julie Andrews!
Love, Tiger xx

Hey Tiger
Glad to see you are back on the big rollorcoaster ride!! Are you having the same meds as last time? I hope this is the one for you!!!!
I thought I was going to have a break until I realised that my medicare safety net runs out this year. So I am going to squeeze one in next cycle.

Hey Kery, yea I know, I just managed to fit my fresh cycle in before Xmas/ New Year break at the clinic. You know this medicare safety net thingy - I don't really get it.... and seen that I am still alone here in OZ - family one does not apply to me. Hm, just like IVF charges it is bit difficult to figure it out.
Take care all. Cheers, Tiger xx

Hi girls,
Just an odd little note - We just had our tax done and apparently the storage costs of frozen embryo's is tax deductable. Go figure!
Best of luck to both of you Tiger and Kery. Will be around to check on your progress!
One more whinge before I go - I am sooooo sick of people telling me that I don't need IVF to have more children. They seem to think that I have had twins and now I am miraculously cured of my infertility. Apparently my "need" for contraception is an acceptable topic of conversation amongst my firends and rellies! I have actually been told by one family member that I will only have myself to blame if I fall pregnant again as I am not on the pill. Is everyone forgetting the struggle for 5 years we had before this??????????
Over it now girls - Thanks for listening!

Hi Em
I know just what you mean. My next iui I have told no one but my mum who is really supportive about the whole thing. I am sick of hearing "just relax and don't think about it and it will happen". My mother in-law always comments about how there was no ivf in her day and no-one had problems getting prgnant. She says "just give it time the natural way" I was sick of hearing it and one day I said to her "HELLO!! he has no sperm!!!" Thats why I think this site is great as everyone understands what you are going through. Friends can be good support but if they don't have fertility issues they can't really understand.
How many embies do you have left on ice?
Kery xx

Hi Kery,
We have 9 left. I know what you mean about the "just realx" comment - we got that after "just relaxing" for 4 years and it becoming very obvious that it wasn't gonna happen!
I have had 4 periods since I had the boys and we have been using no contraception and I am not breast feeding. We both agreed that we would throw down the gauntlet to mother nature and see what happens. I think we will be using the 9 on ice, somehow.
I have a good friend in Perth who is about to start Ass. Reproduction very soon. She has just had all her tests done and I think her first cycle will be Jan. I have told her about this site and I hope she comes on board. Her name is Rhonda, look out for her for me?

Ems, yup, I will look out for her as well!
Kery - you shocked me with your comment to MIL! mate - that is brilliant - there is so much we can take, isn't it. I constantly have to tell people that I am mechanically challenged with my bits - but people still think that somehow this heavenly miracle will happen
and it will be all great. Yea right 
. They have NO idea how much WE wish for that miracle to happen - honestly!!!
Melbourne Cup day here and it's all lovely. I am so glad to be back home - I recall last here - feeling so miserable in dark and cold London town, taking Misery Line to my work. I wish I can send this sunshine to all our UK & US buddies out there....
Cheers, Tiger xx
PS I start lucrin next Thu. Same meds as last cycle.
