Congratulations Ginger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was wondering how things were going with you and am so pleased to hear that No 9 has stuck : )
Your story has given me hope as I am about to embark on the whole IVF thing too.

We've had three IVF babies recently avkiwi3 - Lulu, mellybelly and No. 9.
The thing I'd say to you is it's not the greatest, but keep your chin up! Do stuff to keep your spirits up too - treat yourself, take time out to do things you enjoy doing, if you feel you need to rest DO IT - forget about housework etc. If you're not feeling the best, it'll still be there tomorrow!
Oh, and someone suggested to me using an icepack for my injections but the hospital said that's not such a great idea as it somehow makes the bruising worse. In the end I found that if I took a good handful of tummy and gave it a blimmin good squeeze, it was almost painless.
Good luck!!! Let's see if we can make a 4th IVF baby!!

Thanks Ginger, I really appriciate your comments. We are a good 6moths or so away from starting and it hasn't been 100% confirmed that we will be elegible for funding but the Dr at the hospital did say we should be.
One of the challenge for me is that I am self employed and can't just have time off. But I will have to get the business more organized (which I need to do anyway)and learn to say no more! We have decided that I will work as much as I can till (fate willing) baby arrives and plan to not book in many jobs after that and keep the business ticking over/paying the bills until I am ready to take on more.
But we don't want to put off doing IVF and find in 4-5 years time that we regret not doing it now.
