TTC for 12 months +

I'm here Storm
Hope FET goes smoothly.
I rung for the free 15 min nurse consult with FA so have that on the 29th then will hopefully make a plan with hubby. We are lucky to be in a position to be able to pay for now so just want to get stuck in I suppose.

oh HT those cysts really sound like a pain! Hope you're managing ok xx

Kumeroa that's great you are getting things going and can move forward with paying for yourself. Hopefully you'll be able to get started soon!

Got my dates with the nurse yesterday, bloods next Sat then transfer the following Thursday, Sept 1st. Its all a lot later than it has been before. transfer will be CD 22 this time but the nurse said as it's manufactured it's not at all a worry! Cause of course I was worried hahaha

Fingers crossed for you Storm!

HT, ouch, none of that sounds pleasant. Here's to a relaxing weekend for you.

Kumeroa, we started with the free consult and were recommended we go in for a Dr consult to start IVF. We were also lucky enough to be able to fund a round while waiting on the public list. Let us know how you get on with the call!

Star, so happy to hear all is going well!

AnyDayNow from what I understand each region has a different length waiting list depending on how many people are on the waiting list and how many people they are able to treat at one time. When we went for our appointment we had to have a few tests and once those were back we were told we were listed for public funding and the wait would be 9-12 months for treatment. My treatment month was 9 months after that. They have a scoring system and depends on how many points you get depends on whether you qualify for public funding. EG, I think that if your BMI is above a certain number and you are over a certain age you automatically don't qualify. Because we had severe male factor infertility it would have been almost impossible for us to get pregnant naturally so we went straight on the list. if you have unexplained infertility you have to wait at least five years of TTC to get on the waiting list but then other things give you different points. It's just a threshold so once you're on the list, you're on the list, you don't get placed higher or lower depending on your circumstances. The only thing they might do is back date you, eg if you have to wait to have certain tests to be listed but you have enough points to be listed anyway, they might put you on the list after your test results have come back, but backdate it to when you were seen. Make sense?

I am obviously still lurking. I am 6 weeks tomorrow and our scan isn't till 8 weeks so waiting to see what happens. There have been rumblings of multiples since my HCG is pretty high and I am already feeling really seedy, a couple of weeks earlier than I did last time. We shall see! They are pretty inexact reasons for twins so I'm not really thinking it is, though my husband went kind of pale when I mentioned it. :)

Just a quick update from me... Our wee girl arrived on 3rd August. All the pain, heartache and effort to get here were absolutely worth it! I really hope you all get your BFPs soon xx

Hi ladies. I am now 10dpo and my temps are fluctuating. I'm not sure if I have attached the image of my chart. Slow rise until 4dpo then a crash over the following three days then it went way up high and today has dropped again. None of the drops have been below cover line but the fluctuating is making me panic. I'm not feeling confident for a bfp as we had a funeral last week and it's been stressful so didn't get to BD as much as we'd planned to. But I'm worried that there's something wrong that hasn't been picked up yet. Any ideas? SOrry if you see this elsewhere as I have posted in another group as well.

Huge congrats Roubaix, congratulations on your wee little girl. What have you named her?

All the best for your scan Auntie :)

I received the letter that my FA Doctor sent to the gynae at the hospital and wondering if anyone knows what any of it means??
In the scan I got done at FA this is what they have noted;
Dominant follicle on left side of ovary plus two cystic structures adjacent.
13x11mm tube and 19x13 para tubal cyst on the remainder of the tube.

Got the scan done on day 7.

I'm still lurking around.....so addicted lol. Have been refraining from participating in conversation to try help me clear my head a bit. But I have been following along where I can. If we end up ending our journey I'm going to have to wean myself off OB as it's going to take a lot of work for me to get my head around what my life will look like. I'll hate to do it though because I really value the love and support I have received from this forum.

Anywho still haven't had any conversations about where we are at, although things have settled down a lot. So I'll keep you posted and keep lurking away in the shadows.

Much love and best wishes to you all xxx

Thanks ladies, I had a Google haha
Doesn't say anything on the letter about a HSG just says the fluid in tubes that was diagnosed at the last lap means I need the tube removed as it lowers ivf success by 50%
I'm going to call the hospital after work to make sure they got the letter and are sorting me an appointment
