@Trenge my darling i'm so sorry to hear of everything you've had to deal with recently :( :( He will probably never understand how much it hurts when they say we are 'too desperate'....none of us who deal with infertility could even put into words how hurtful it is to hear that and i'm sorry its from your own hubby. But good on you for taking control!! Maybe you both just need some time out and to figure out everything, this ttc process can put so much pressure on us and our marriages/relationships I have never known anything like it. I wish you all the happiness and hope you and hubby can work it out and you get your blessing. Sending big hugs and please keep in touch xxxx

Re: Acupuncture I am going to a lady named Michelle Levy here in West beach she is based at Blouberg Medispa. First appointment is R400 and then each acupuncture session after that is R350. I am going to go once a week. Honestly cannot afford it and hubby says I should rather not go but I don't care right now, I am going and will put it on the credit card and deal with it later!! Right now a baby is the most important thing and giving ourselves the best possible chance before our next IUI in July!!!

Which hospital is GHS? Groote Schuur? I am based in Blouberg but after a horrific ordeal with a gynae at Milnerton Mediclinic I found my endo specialist at Aevitas fertility clinic so have just stayed on with him. My cousin actually teaches at Wynberg boys high school! We should try and organise a get together here for the CPT ladies!!! god knows we could all do with a glass of wine hahah!!!

Good afternoon ladies 
Firstly I'm sorry for being honest so long but I took a much need ttc break. I was just dealing with too much for the past two months. So lately I was wondering how all you ladies are doing and I noticed the new group 2019.
anyway I'll try to catch up what I can if I miss anybody please don't feel bad. 
@Ayesha I'm so sorry for your grandfather but we know he's in a better place at the moment. I'm also sorry for your failed IUI. Atleast you've got Eid few days away to keep urself occupied atleast for a bit. Your such a trooper.
@cands girl, I was really rooting for you and ur embabies. But you are keeping going and being strong and that's good. As long as ur strong enough for another try. You make th injections look like dream come true lol‎
@lagogies &Nicolaf sorry for the failed IUIS, I hope to see your bfps soon. Nicola I was meaning to ask where in Cape Town area are u based. Did you ever think of doing your procedures through GHS. I was just wondering. 
@NicolaF where will you be going for your acupuncture and what's the cost. Just wondering.
‎@madie1 how long are your cycles. Could be possible.
For all the new ladies welcome to this warm group of ladies that's there when one needs to vent or cry. Hope your stay is very very short.
‎
 
I'm not sure if ya'll remember me but I had some issues with hubby who didn't want to take the vitamins I bought. So we were supposed to have an IUI may month but the 'professor' thought it would be a good idea to have another SA done as the previous one was done in 2016. Can you guys believe that my husband is acting like a little spoilt brat about it and doesn't wanna do the SA. I was like wtf. That's all you'll be doing and giving a sample day of procedure,im the one who'll be injecting myself and all the other crap. And he also had a nerve to tell me I'm a bit too desperate for a child. It's true but how dare he say it to my face and I won't admit it to him ever.:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: So now I'm at the point where I'm telling myself or rather reminding myself constantly that what we want is not necessary good for us. I'll be going on Oralcon on the first day of my next cycle. As much as you ladies all give me strength,and I do appreciate it a million but I just don't see chance for this see-saw attitude of my husband. He's controlling my emotions at the moment. One day of excitement and the next week of dissapointment. He's changing he's mind more than what I change underwear lol. Atleast going on contraceptives is putting me in control somewhat of the decision to have or not have a child. ‎
So now I've got an extra sealed container of sperm-I-prove which I bought from GetPregnantonline if anyone is interested u can let me know I'm in Cape Town (wynberg).

I'm sending tons and tons of baby dust to all you beautiful ladies. I'll keep stalking all of ya'll. Thanks for being there when I needed someone to talk to.:kiss: :kiss: :kiss: :kiss: :kiss:

Hi Ladies,

Had a wonderfully relaxing weekend. even had a sneaky bit of wine! Cleaned the house, cooked lunches for the week. did all the washing. Feeling so ready for what is ahead!

Today was day 6 of injections, 0.5 a vial menopur daily. Went for a scan and we are getting a lovely dominant follicle. Once that is nice, then trigger, and a week after that is transfer. So on 1 vial per day till Friday, then we scan again!

I am so incredibly happy. My Dr kept saying yes you will have your baby! My lining is starting nicely, still 3.5mm but getting there. Trilaminar which is great. Attached a photo of my scan.



Ladies this is my cycle, i can feel it!!
@lagogies i'm so sorry :'( was so hoping!
