Hmmm I posted something which doesn't seem to have appeared... Never mind.

I seem to have ov'd yesterday woot! now I need to stretch my luteal phase over 8 days wish me luck.

 

[cazd]

what???? you OVD !!!!
that's fantastic news - but what cd? I thought you were early in your cycle?
GOOD LUCK!

Obe - we're just waiting now - I guess for a letter from the clinic to say come and discuss stuff...?
They just said 'you're being referred' and that was that...

 

[obe]

Cazd - I would keep onto them. Are you waiting to hear from the FS? Every appointment we have had with the hospital, I have had to chase for. Each time, they had either 'lost my details on the system' or just not even bothered to book us in.
Starrilicious - great news!!! Keep b'ding!
Hows the weather where you guys are? We have snow snow snow!!!
Sparkle - is March the date they have given you? That sucks!
xx

I was booked for jan 25th, but they 'had to rearrange'. this is an ongoing thing with them, none of my appointments they make for follow up at the time have ever been stuck to!

 

[starrilicious]

Ov day was CD19, I'm just glad to be in a cycle again, typical it should start after I get my referal lol nm eh

I'm feeling exhausted so off to bed now.

TTFN xx

well guys i am out until I have 10k! Found out about finances and the IVF (see journal if want more info) and this is on hold until I have that 10k-so far i have $800...this may take all year with the economy as it is or longer and by then I will be older and IVF will be even less successful...not very hopeful

 

[sparkle83]

grneyednurse: what are you trying in between for dh? I know ths sounds a bit odd, but during our workup tests, DH has had two s/a. In between them he stopped drinking caffinated coffee and tea, and cut down fizzy caffinated drinks and alcohol. All aspects of his s/a were massively improved (he didnt have issues to start with, it took him from total count 196mill to 460mill, but you can see the increase there). I dont know if it'd make any difference for you, but it couldnt hurt.

 

[grneyednurse]

Thanks but he cut out all that ages ago and even took Fertilaid for like 4 months before that 1st SA...I have a leftover microscope from a home SA that I check things out from time to time and no changes...except he had the flu in september and his soldiers look 50% worse since December (90 days since the flu when the sperm were made) regarding motility and morphology...before he had less sperm but they all swam and looked good...now theres like 50% more but those 50% are useless...so...dunno...trying the instead cups at O time still, but that's about it...no hope for it naturally anymore...if I have hope it is very stressful and heartbreaking at the end of each cycle...better not to have hope...dunno...he had his bloods so hopefully we hear back about that soon

 

[sparkle83]

sorry to hear that sweets. hopefully the blood tests will show summat simple

 

[grneyednurse]

I hope so too and I hope your IUI works in March...wheres wannabe22? How are you?

 

[sparkle83]

we wont do iui yet, we are having a follow up appt, hopefully will do ovarian drilling and then catch naturally (its possible lol)

 

[obe]

Sparkle- thats shit! It really is crap that they keep doing that! Thats the down fall with our hospital, you have to keep on at them to make sure you get seen other wise they forget about you. The staff are all lovely but Im sick of always chasing them for appointments.
Grenyenurse - OMG that is awful! Is there nothing you can do?? Does everyone have to pay where you are?

[grneyednurse]

If one doesn't have insurance with excellent coverage (rare) for IVF yes, or if you don't live in 1 of the i think 10 states with mandatory coverage....and I don't have either...I had insurance that covered some, but as I found out, it is useless...so...I am actually slowly going to be fine with it...what other choice do i have anyway? The economy sucks so making extra money is out of my hands as well....I have some things up my sleeve and I am thinking maybe September? Maybe....at least 2010 seems likely. I can only wait and see. I am still sad about it, but already had a cry out. Just going to keep going with the flow I suppose and follow everyone on here. America sucks in many way-it's only for the rich.

 

[cazd]

ladies - there's HOPE...
My man has god awful but it looks like one made it....
got my first ever.....can't sodding well believe it..... this morning.

We did it in 13 cycles with one ovary and pi** poor

Nurse - it must be fate - you're gonna do it naturally and you get to keep all that dosh to spend on the baby!
