Hey girls!!

Lalie, I'm so sorry about the bad news!! Do you mind me asking how old you are now? I hope madame Z will be a great escape for you tonight... although all the quips on here should have already made you feel beter ;)

Hayley, so what's the story with your boobs now? I think I missed that while I was AWOL... Are you and hubby still taking the Fertile XX and XY?

TaNasha, that's great benefits you guys have!! I'll take the home-births with a smile if it means I get those added benefits. Oh, and LOL at your sneeze story!!

Tanz, Strikkie and TaNasha, good luck for Friday girls. I hope we get 3 BFP's. That would be a great way to start off the weekend!!

Now I can't remember what else I wanted to say.... Hi to everyone I missed.

O ja, where's Tracy?

Nothing to report on my side. Waiting patiently for AF to arrive. Been spotting since Saturday and thought she's pitch today, but nothing yet. But probably tomorrow, because it looks like the Fertile XX has evened out my cycles to exactly 28 days, with a longer LP.

TTC since January 2009

IVF #2 September 2014 - BFP!!!!

TaNasha, medical aid doesnt not cover infertility treatments here is South Africa, so you are considered lucky over there...

FHF (First Health Finance) they approved my loan of R30 000.00 loan to have my boobs done but with interest and all that at the end of the day i was paying back at least R42 000.00 and i know they also give you finance for IVF treatment, so Laliek, maybe that's something you and hubby can look into if you prepared to pay back all that interest.. :)

LOL!! Oh goodness, thanks girls - Ika I love the plan and strangely enough it doesn't appeal to me because of the getting me knocked up but at this stage it appeals to me because of the shots and liquer involved whoohoo :-)

I'm sure we'll probably make a plan somehow but ag I'm not going to worry about it now, we'll cross that bridge when we get there!

Thanks girls you've just made my afternoon, I feel much better!

I'm off now heading home, going to by me some Lindt chocolates and stuff my face and take a nap before Madame Z tonight.....!!

Have a good evening ladies!

Ah, Laliek... Im so sorry to hear friend, and i can believe you over this whole TTC... So what will the next step be?

IVF, is extremely expensive, hubby also has a 8% morphology and Dr Hogewind suggested IVF and he asked us for R34 000.00 and i just laughed at him...

TaNasha, i had a good laugh now about your snotties, thank you... :)
