Hey storm, yip very quiet in here. Not here yet but i have a feeling it can't be far away. Yesterday i was in the worse mood and everyone was rubbing me up the wrong way, so guess it can't be too far hahaha  I do have a random question, my DH has been reading somewhere that once i start the pessaries then we can't have sex, no idea if this is right and i have been meaning to ask the nurse once we start but i know you ladies will help out. I am a bit unsure on what he has been reading.....

haha Sweetpea that's usually always a sign AF is on her way. Fingers crossed! Funny your DH has read that somewhere!  I'm pretty sure it's perfectly ok with the progesterone, I've used them quite a bit and have never been told otherwise - just can be a bit of a "mess" that's all. Are you doing progynova etc aswell? Colorado drugs? That's what I'm doing, and as of yesterday I now need to remember to take 5 pills a day, aswell as the pessaries!

I didn't think so. He wont be able to handle going for 2 weeks with no sex, hahaha maybe i should keep that one quiet WOW that's a lot of pills in one day! I will be starting progynova (i think) on day 2 and that's all i have apart from the pessaries.

Haha and even longer than 2 weeks if you get pregnant and they continue the pessaries. Yeah it's heaps! And thinking about it, it's actually 5 different ones (including my elevit) but I actually take 8 in a day two of them are only for 5 days so that's not too bad cause it can all get very confusing LOL I think I do these every few cycles just as an "added extra" to potentially help with implantation seeing how thats my issue. I don't always see the need for it myself, but what the hell, it's not hurting to do it.

Oh BC, my heart aches for you. I really wanted you to get your take home baby. HT's words brought a tear to my eye. Thanks again for all the support you have provided to me and everyone here over the years. I wish you all the best for the next adventure in your life and am confident it will bring you joy. xo
A.girl - my gosh you've had a roller coaster journey lately, it's no wonder you're not feeling your usual self. I am full of hope for you that this last embie may be the miracle that can be the ray of sunshine you need in your life.
Rosey - biggest hugs, it sounds like things are tough for you right now too. Be kind to yourself, and make sure you get some support around you - no one expects you to be bulletproof through all of this journey.
Sweetpea and Storm - thinking of you two going through treatment right now and holding on to hope for you both xo

Hope everyone is going well especially those having a difficult time!
CD1 for me today, and no spotting! Acupuncture really is doing something it's crazy!
Going to call to get my HSG done next week even though I'm not sure I need it I figure if I've got the appointment I mars well get it done then there's no hold up if the gynae says I do need one.
Other than that still waiting on my appointment from the hospital gynae in regards to more surgery.

Hey Faith, great to hear acupuncture is helping. I hope you get everything sorted - if you think you should have heard from the hospital by now, I'd say call them to follow up. I found I always had to be proactive in following up when going through the public system. It's no ones fault - all the doctors and nurses I saw were lovely - they just tend to be overloaded so often don't get back to you when they say they will.
Yay for starting clomid Bonnie - I hope it works for you! I didn't have any luck with it but I have definitely heard of others that have.

Star nice to "see" you  How are you getting along? How far along are you now? Faith that's great acupuncture is working well for you. Have you managed to call for your HSG yet? I agree with Star on calling the hospital. I haven't been through the public system so don't know for sure, but I've seen plenty of ladies here having to call them cause they just end up waiting longer than they should do to the back log. Let us know how you get on. Bonnie, not taking clomid here - not sure that anyone here is currently on it? But plenty of us have been in the past so if you have any questions, there will be plenty of answers for you Sweetpea....... any sign of AF yet???? Transfer for me at midday tomorrow eeeeek!

Faith, glad u have your HSG booked in for Monday. As the other ladies said, call the hospital! Good luck for tomorrow Storm will be thinking of u and hope its a sticky one! Bonnie, sorry haven't used it, so can't help on that one AF still not here. Think it's gona make me wait till its due or past, grrrrr. The fun of waiting I have differently noticed ive been grumpy the last few days, more than normal when my AF comes, maybe its just because its my first natural AF since EC just messing things up a bit. Hope everyone else is ok xx

Thanks ladies - feeling a little different about it this time - not sure why. It's like I have to keep reminding myself that I have to do it, even though I know I do. Think I just feel more numb the more I do. As down as it is, DH and I talked yesterday about what we would do if this didn't work and I think we are going to ask them to put our last two back together. But hopefully it won't come to that! (rant over)
Ugh sweetpea that's a bit annoying huh! Hopefully it's not too far away for you!
Faith that's great you are booked in so soon! Hope your phone call today goes well.

I'm officially PUPO!! It's funny how your feelings toward it changes in an instant! It went well - once we finally got seen they were running behind, not fun with a full bladder! Saw our little embie on the screen and doc said it looks really good (not sure that means much to me anymore though but still) was actually really cool when it was "let go" from the tube though, was super super bright (DH piped up and said it's bright like a little star ) we could really see it. Never had it like that before, sometimes we don't even really see it LOL hopefully it's a good sign. Now for the terrible 10 day wait
