    It may be because I have PCOS. I think they symptoms suggest mild OHSS:huh:
    Anyway, it's all really really trivial.

    My parents are in hospital right now:(
    Mum got dizzy in the middle of the night, so dad tried to move her somewhere, slipped and dad can't feel a thing below his neck.

    Kind of reminds me there are more important things in life then IVF.
    And yes, I may have forgotten to mention my IVF to them:o

    OHSS gets worse in early pregnancy so hope it is a good sign, but I feel for you, i've had it and its evil! Stay Hydrated but don't go OTT, as it can actually make OHSS worse once it has taken hold.
    I hope your parents make a fast recovery!

    Sorry your parents are having a rough time QQ, sounds worrying.

    I hope they're home and well soon.

    Your bloating really might be a good sign - when I got pg, I got bloated straight away - my midriff's never been the same since.

    Thanks for the info about the royal jelly - I might put that on my shopping list for post-HyCoSy - I aim to 'do everything right' for a few months, to give things the best shot.

    In the meantime, I got a load of bills through from Midlands Fertility today - the blighters are trying to stiff me for money for fertility tests that we agreed I wouldn't be doing! £300 worth! I will have to wait until Monday before I phone them to ask what the hell. If I do have to pay (it's the usual fertility work-up tests that I have no need of, I had them all done recently on the NHS) it means my HyCoSy will have cost the best part of £1000!

    I cried when I got the bill - not because we can't afford it, that's not the issue, it's just that nothing in my life seems to be going right at the minute. I wish I had some valium..!

    Thanks for your PMA Lisa!

    (((Hugs))). Those fertility clinics seem to want endless supply of money don't they? Hope you get it sorted:o

    Hmm, having been treated at MFS for about 3 years they can be a bit lacking in the paperwork department for sure.
    Hopefully they will sort it all out Monday morning for you, just keep on at them til they get the point and ask for a revised invoice.
    You are not/have not had those tests there so they can't make you or charge you for them.
    Stick to your guns hun, I know what you mean about the road being littered with rubbish.
    I'm taking my frustrations out on the garage today, double garage but due to our cars (mines too tall and his is too wide!) we don't use it for parking and it has become a jumble pile at best, so i've been in there all day and am just off out to DIY shop to get plastic storage crates for all those things that are loose and 'cluttery'
    Try to have a good weekend ladies x
