    I can't cope with hot days! I'm burning up because of supercur injections ,
    I'm wrong to moan as when an ivf fails im desperate to be doing an ivf and when i do an ivf i moan because im suffering!
    Im grateful, really that oh wants this as much as me and has a good job to fund our treatments,
    Im defintely taking this ivf one stage at a time and not gonna think of end goal otherwise i will be crushed itms.
    I hope everyone else is coping ok, nottslass have u got any coping stratergys for 2ww? xxxx

    My bf had IVF this time last year, and together we planned something for every day of her 2ww to try to keep her mind off things. Everything was something which was safe for this period - so no swiming or spa days. Some days she met up with me or another friend for lunch or an evening meal, we went to the cinema, a matinee at the theatre and a few art exhibitions. This meant she had something to look forward to every day and to take her mind off things for a time as well. It was only partially successful, I have to say as when I saw her on day 10, she had already tested and got her BFP, then spent the next 4 days before her appointment for the blood test worrying that it was a false one from the drugs! Don't know if this would be possible as a coping strategy for you and nottslass? Good luck to you both anyway.

    Apart from googleing "IVF success rates" and "knicker checking" like a woman possessed,no !!!!!!!

    As my last 2ww was over xmas,I had lots to keep my mind occupied, and as OH was on annual leave anyway we planned things to do each day - I don't have a clue how I'll cope with the 2ww this time. I plan to take 2 weeks sick leave,as work is quite stressful at the moment,so I'll try and plan lots of stuff in advance.
