Lissie - just read your thread. That's so frustrating!!!

Lottie is right - you have to fight/appeal/kick and scream. It will be so unfair if it is down to your family history - that is only a part of your make-up, so can't totally count against you, surely?

Did you call yesterday?

Hi all

How is everyone?

Well I just joined Shrek and Lissie with an early af - though only 3 days early...

Heebeejeebee · 14/08/2009 16:49

Rainbow - I'm so sorry I agree with Lissie - do what feels right for you..

Shrek - You would think it wouldn't be too much to ask for your cycles to stick to some kind of routine, to try to make an already painful process, slightly less painful..

Lissie - hope the paperwork gets cleared quickly (on the assumption the last round of clomid doesn't do anything).

I'm in the middle of the 2ww. Swing from feeling wildly optimistic, to not at all, which is just stupid as my m/c consultant told me that the steroids I take will mask any pg symptoms.. If this month doesn't work then my consultant's desperate quest for 2 viable follicles means i'm doubling the dose of the injections I take leading up to ov..

rainbows, that is really odd! re the ttc, you must do what feels best for you. can you get appt with clinic to go over options?

Is it a full moon or something! All these early periods, also I am currently working with another woman who is now also miscarrying. There must be something up somehow.

I am not sure whether to stop ttc this month. I am not sure how much good it is doing my body, to be pregnant on and off so much. But perhaps it is just the first day of bleeding causing me to question it.

Rainbow, Im so, so sorry when do you see cons?

shreks, I do understand. its very frustrating and painful. have you had bloods to identify ov?

well, period came 6d early this month. I definately ov'd so christ knows whats happened. have arranged appt with fertility clinic to see implication counsellor re IVF, filled in all the forms (although mother made things as difficult as possible when I called up for family history) and will hopefully start asap provided this last unofficial round of clomid fails (as im sure it will) am oving from tubeless side. i know it and they know it. all that scaremongering about "too many follies, eggs can travel". maybe they can. but that doesnt mean they will!

picknmix life really knows how to kick you in the teeth sometimes..

lissie just read your other thread about egg sharing - that sounds so good. I know what you mean as well (from the other thread) - if I get to the end of the year and they start me on IVF, I will feel so much relief that its out of my hands..

Well, the injections did do their stuff - I had a big fat (his words) 22mm egg on the right side (which was good news as that had failed to produce anything for a while) and a 13mm egg, so too small to be of use. Next cycle he's doubled the dose of the injections to get 2 follicles. I take the injection to make me ov today and try over the weekend...
