Julie, I remember what it was like to be new to this site, so here's the abbreviations that i can remember : AF=Aunt Flo(period), FET=Frozen Egg Transfer, DH=Dear husband(or whatever you chhose to call him, i could think of a couple that begin with DH!! hahaha), MIL=Mother In Law, and then there is the basic ones like lol=laugh out loud and rofl=rolling on floor laughing, which you probably know. No doubt i have missed other abbreviations out, but the old memory aint what it was, heehee. Hopefully some of the other ladies on this site can also help with this, cause i am sure i've missed some out. Hope everthing goes well with whatever treatment you are having, julie. Keep posting and let me know. Heather xxx

Heather , Thanks for your reply, all will be come clearer the more i use this site. I'm really glad i found this site am sure it will help when times are bad. Christmas is just around the corner and christmas is a time for children isn't it ? We are having Ivf now that IUI has proven to be to hit and miss, instead of producing 1 2 or 3 eggs I've been getting 9 amd then 5 eggs. The clinic put me on 50 fostimon every other day and i still made 5 eggs. How are you doing with treament,what are you having? Find at the clinic not many ladies discuss problems,but it helps doesn't it Julie M
