Hi all,
Hope everyone is doing ok, BFP, bfn or in treatment.
I'm having my meds delivered tomorrow to do my second and last NHS cycle early April. Decided best time for me (I'm a teacher) as it's easter holidays. Hopefully it's second time lucky!
Saw this post earlier. All very true!

Hi allie,
All i can say is I was devastated when my 1st failed cycle too, but I felt I was less anxious during my second round, maybe due to the fact I knew what to expect the 2nd time round. Try to remain positive and try not to worry and I hope you are successful on your final round xx
So agree with this article. A lady who I work with 37 hours a week knows all about it and she's so inconsiderate about what she says I can't believe it sometimes!! Xx
Heya Hun how are you???? Where you at with everything?
Yea so much in that article that I need some people 'close' to me to read! X
I'm ok just plodding along really. Still waiting for af for the first time then will start on the second af. Not enjoying this uncertain time but might end up being same time as you again xx
Has AF been a while?
Yea that's a bit rubbish to be waiting but you'll get there! Yea we could be cycle buddies again xxx
Well medical miscarriage was 3rd Jan but didnt work so it happened on 14th Jan. Never looked forward to af so much just want some idea of when I can start my fet so I can look forward to it xx
Aw Hun hope you ok. Can't imagine going through that. Keep in touch and let me know how you go xxx
Hi allieb - great news about your second cycle! I've found my second cycle much easier as there are less unknowns. Wishing you lots of luck for the next few months x x x
Thanks Hun. Hoping it goes ok. Hope you are ok too xxx
Hi Allieb21 - just wanted to say that I'll be starting my first IVF in early April so will be following your journey with interest. wishing you all the very best I hoping that this time will be a BFP for you.
Hi Hun. Good luck to you too! You on short or long protocol? Xxx
Long, starting with down-regging on Progynova. You?
I'm on short again due to low amh.
Starting with a new med Pergoveris. May go on some gonal f again too if I have a low response. Was only on gonal f last time but quite high and got only 6 eggs.
TBH all I want is one that works!!! X
Indeed, it only takes that magic one, that's what I'm holding out for as I'm not expecting that we'll get that many given my age, but it's quality not quantity that counts heh?
Oi forget the age thing right now missy you'll be fine! It's just a number. I'm 33 and my amh ages at a 39 year old but feck it just have to be positive all the way!!! Least I know what to expect this time 😬 Xxx
I like you already!! (& we've probably got similar AMH levels too then!!) 
Looking forward to chatting to you more as we progress through our journeys! x
Loo. You too Hun! I see you you were looking for an acupuncturist? I did that last cycle and it is good. I'd recommend mine but I'm in East Essex so too far from you xxx
Same with me I chose April too and my last time. Best of luck x.
Hi Hun you too. Are you on long or short xxx
I'm on long again. I'm not sure If that's a good thing or not I wonder if maybe they should try short but I don't really know the difference. I think I will be starting my injections near the end of march so egg collection will be somewhere in the Easter hols. I just hope and pray it works this time for us both. Are you long or short? X
On short again. I think it's clinic preference and why you are there. I've low amh so must be why I am.
I'll be EC around then too if all goes ok so could be close cycle buddies x
That post is so true. ☺ hope this is your cycle Ali xx
Thanks Hun. I see you are the adoption process. I wish you both all the luck in the world every step of the way xxx
Thank you. Yes we applied in Dec training starts in 2 weeks. Can't wait. Xx
Hope it isn't too long and draining. I know training is important etc but there's a kid out there waiting for adoption and no kid should wait that long! Xx
I know our child could already be out there.
The whole process will be about a year. The training is over by March but takes time to get allocated a social worker and do your home study. We ve been quick so far with the timings but hopefully be one of the lucky ones!! Xx
So true good to read!!!
Good luck to you and all the best for April 🤞🏻❤
Good luck allieb21!! We are starting our 3rd cycle soon. Long protocol. Aiming for EC 1st week in May.
And great article! xx
Thanks for the link Hun, I actually posted in on my fb page...scary I know!! Cue the 56 comments offering support, I couldn't believe it! I felt like it was a good idea as with my job I get comments like this daily!! So it's certainly educated people And also it inspired others to speak up about their ivf journeys too xx
8th transfer here I come 🤞
2nd round here I come!!
IVF here I come - Finally
