    BZ - massive hugs xx. Really hope the pain is better for you today. I totally get what you mean about feeling blindsided by new information. For years we always thought the problem was the endo, then within the space of a couple of months we're hit with severe PCOS and appallingly low sperm count. Insurmountable really does seem like the right word.
    TeamLowe / QQ - I'm pretty sure now that pg is just something that happens to other people. I'm sure it will happen for both of you though. Maybe if we all think it will just be other people, it will happen for someone else on the thread lol.
    lisa - so sorry to hear that. Big hugs xx.
    primmer - fingers v tightly crossed that this is your success cycle!
    onestep - hope you're taking it easy. Get well soon x.

    Largest follicle measured 11mm yesterday (CD18). Got another scan next monday, not sure I'll ever ovulate again at this rate!

    Lisa- huge hugs, life seems so unfair at times

    Onestep - glad you are getting over the chicken pox ok but still get lots of rest as it really knocks it out of you.

    Tealover - hope scan on Monday brings better news, how you feeling on the medication?

    Thanks to all for the good wishes

    Hugs to all who need them x

    So so sorry Lisa. Take it easy xx

  • So sorry to hear your news Lisa. Is it a definite BFN, could you still test positive in a few days?

    Tea lover - good luck with your scan on Monday.

    BZ - hope you are not in too much pain.

    I've been doing lots of praying recently. Trying to think of all the reasons this treatment will work.... i would have been due around now, so looking at that as a good omen, hubby is away for 6 - 7months from mid Sept, so if treatment works he would be home for end of the pregnancy. Having 2 embryos put back in (if we get that far), and the fresh cycle worked last dec. I know clutching at straws. But also trying not to be too positive, just in case.....

    Had a scan today - couple of 18mm follicles, a 17, 15 and 14, scan again on Friday, then prob EC on Monday. Dreading 2ww.
