    Exactly.

    I know it might never happen, probably won't ever happen, but I have to try. Problem is, oh says we have tried.

    Never say never. But you do need to get your OH on board. It's such a short time since your first attempt - perhaps he just needs more time. Men grieve in funny ways - he might just still be hurting.

    In a funny way, I'm sort of pleased that both the OH and I are pretty rubbish in the fertility area. It was probably ultimately my problem, but his lazy-arsed swimmers didn't help. We needed ICSI every time. If you're both challenged, there's no temptation to blame or feel guilty and it can make things feel a little more balanced. Doesn't help your chances much though :D

    sounds like a good appointment tea, I've always found mrh to have a knee jerk reaction to things, then he generally comes round and is more open to discussion after a couple of days.

    Welcome Fannyanna

    AFM, I have now lost 17lbs and have become a mental metafitter! I will be in bloody good shape for the next load of treatment.

    Just had my tracking scan and he won't give me the flipping injection because I've got 2 large follicles. Git. Can you tell I'm stropping?!

    becca - what do they do instead? Do you just have to wait?

    part mouse - hope the scan goes ok today.

    lucy - thinking of you. Have everything crossed that it's good news this morning xx.

    mrshappy - very impressive! My weight has really gone up over the last few months, I need to get a grip on it while I still have some clothes I can fit into!
