    We are quiet on here, I know a few are on Hols but still.

    Had a review meeting today with clinic and they couldn't tell me anything I didn't already know. We talked about donor eggs but not sure I want to go down that route. I'm only 33 and she said there is no reason why we can't try again, perhaps it will be 4th time lucky. 36 days in and still no AF I'm sure it's on its way but I need it to come so I can have my blood tests done. Felt rubbish after my review just wanted to curl up and have a good cry.

    I'm not TTCing now after the failed IVF. I'm away and have no DH until mid July:o
    My cycles are still haywire after the IVF, and I don't think I've ov'd yet at CD25. Hope it settles by July:o

    (((Hugs))) Juju. Hope AF won't arrive.
    Hope you are OK Lilo.

    Quiet here too. Got our initial consultation at ARGC on Monday, hope they can give us a plan and give us the go ahead to try again, can't help but feel we are wasting our time and money though. This will be round 8 of ICSI/IVF/FET and it all gets so disheartening.
    We can't try for adoption at present as hubby will be working our of the country full time (except weekends) for the next 5 years at least.
    I feel my life is on hold and can plan nothing while we wait.
    If things were different i'd go to live with him and at least it would take some of the horrible loneliness and unhappiness away.
    Feeling pretty blue.
    Hope everyone else can have it a bit easier

    We all a bit low at the moment aren't we. Hope I haven't brought you down.

    QQ - I know what you mean above the IVF, this is my first AF since it and it always comes a bit later than usual. It would be a miracle if it didn't come and I was pregnant but I feel it is immenent. Sorry you have no DH at the moment that does make it difficult.

    Lisa - Hope your appointment Monday goes well and you get a plan to move forward. 8 times is a lot but you did get pregnant last time so I have high hopes for you next time. I know how you feel that you life is on hold I feel like that too. Shame you can't be with DH all the time again that makes things difficult.

    Onwards and upwards.

    LW I am sure they will have learnt so much from your last cycle you got your BFP so they will know what works, your in the best hands I have read so much positive things about them, it must be hard having your OH away I really really hope it works x x

    Juju ((hugs)) it will be 4th time lucky I have everything crossed for you x x

    I had my scan this morning and everthing is looking as it should at this stage I am 6 weeks today and there was a heartbeat, still so far to go and taking it one day at a time but appreciate it so much getting this far.

    I am keeping an eye on you all I want all your dreams to come true, you are all amazing no one knows how difficult a journey it is until your going through it and you have been there for me loads and thank you for that x x
