I think very few people understand our struggles. Some of them just don't get it - I lost a friend not a long time ago because of my forgetfulness - she just couldn't forgive me my memory lapses..;-)
Thursday is right around the corner, hang in there (I know it's easier said than done - the hormones are probably driving you nuts ;-)). .Is it your first IVF?
I can tell from my experience that acupuncture helps a lot (I'm not familiar with reflexology). In April this year I've had only 1 in 7 chance to get pregnant with my one lonely embryo transferred and I got pregnant! I have miscarried a few weeks later but even acupuncture won't help with genetic abnormalities.. Anyway, my doc was VERY surprised that I got BFP the very first time I tried IVF. I pay $65 and it takes me 1/2 hour to get there.
But I think it's worth the money.
I am sorry to hear about your miscarriages..I have had 2 in past and know that it's a very traumatic experience.
But you are fighting again!!!:-) I don't know why but I have the feeling that this Fall/Winter will be lucky for many!
I will probably have my transfer between 7-15 December (we are transferring donated embies) so I will be right behind you.
Good luck!!!
Welcome Ladies! Seems like we will have a lively bunch and I can't wait to chat with you girls! As far as our situation I am currently waiting for Aunt Flow to arrive so I can call the Doc on day 1...I never been so excited for her to come! LOL! When I call Day 1 I will have to make an appt for blood work on day 3 and start BC then the process starts! I am so anxious I am going crazy!! This will be our 2nd and final try with IVF so I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed! I wish everyone the best and hope next year our babies will finally be here :)
Juana105 I agree! Something is telling me this will be a lucky fall/winter as well! I wish we were only 1/2 hour away, we travel an hour and 1/2 to our doctor :( But I love the mini road trips with the DH <3
Ladies!
I started spotting so my AF will arrive today or tomorrow.
I've picked up b/c pills from pharmacy today thinking that they will have to wait - hmm....they won't!

I know! Something is in the air! Love and hope I think ;-)
Hour and 1/2 - wow! I mean I would still do it but I wouldn't like it too much (I travel alone). Do you do it more often when you are closer to er and transfer?
I usually go 3 times a week before and after the transfer - I like my Korean doc very much, but don't like the amount of money I'm leaving him...;-)
Well didnt hear off nurse today so just carried on as we were with injections im hoping no news is good news!!
Cant contain myself for this scan LOL.
I rang today because was getting really frushtrated she said i should be finishing meds soon and have my retreval early next week ((WOW THAT QUICK)) mite sound daft but this really has been a long time coming!! Iv had 1 m/c in 2006,1 ruptured ectopic in 2007,one ectopic 2009 and one m/c 2010, iv attempted to start the ivf process twice before but each time found out i was prego naturally, I only have 1 tube so its looking like thats our prob, my AMH is 6.5 a little on the low side for 26 :( but atleast i still have some eggys left :) the m/c and ectopics have been really hard to deal with so im totally with you ladies who have been through the same.
This is our 1st go at ICSI (DHs sperm falls just below coverline) I am entitiled to 2 cycles on the NHS but after my last m/c (nov 2010) they refused me IVF treatment for 12months as ivf is apparantly only avaliable if no pregnancys in 2years then they wanted to send me to m/c clinic, i broke down in the appt and my doc said i could have 1 cycle if no joy or m/c then go to m/c clinic then 2nd cycle!
Super nevous for how many eggs we will be expecting, Last month i had 14 follicles that was before treatment not sure if that varies everymonth!
Sorry for the essay ladies i do tend to ramble!! haha!
Hope all is going well :-)
