Been Doc - now it's IVF next.
For those who know me - I went to my private doc today - he thinks IVF will be the best idea for me.
Bit too blue to chat now - but will keep you posted once I'm referred.

Thinking of you xx
GEM 78 - I would love to know what books helped you hun.
It's still sinking in - I've been in tears once - but I'm sure it's the first time of many!
People keep saying thats great that I'm getting somewhere - but what those people don't realise is that if IVF doesn't work - then what???? Thats it - it's over! So thats whats making me blue.
But you are all fab - thank you so much for youe support - it's hard to think this time last year I took three weeks of work with stress and feel pg only to have an ectopic - feels like a hundred years ago now!
Thank you ladies for your support!

So sorry you're feeling down. I can honestly say though that the process of IVF really isn't that bad. I know just what you mean about the worry of what happens if it doesn't work, but the way I see it what we've been doing for over 2 years hasn't been working, so this is absolutely our best shot. A couple of our friends called us yesterday to say that their second attempt of IVF had worked and we also know two other couples who have 2 kids each through IVF. Just think MWB, after all this time, this really could be the count down to your BFP!!! That's the way I see it anyway
Don't get me wrong the IVF is a real rollercoaster but since you can make embryos you should have a good chance of it all working. I'll be here for you if you want to ask any questions and rooting for you all the way. I know psycologically it's a big step and I still have moments when I think 'how on earth did we get here', but if you just take it a step at a time it could be the thing that finally ends your journey and makes you a Mummy.

I have had time to reflect - I have bought a book on Endometriosis - as I also found out I have that when I went to my doc - he said it casually that it didn't properly sink in - he may have told me after my lap and dye but I honestly don't remember! I have also ordered a book on IVF so I am prepared and can ask all the questions.
I have done a bit of research online - I'm changing my diet back to organic and no read meat etc etc - I actually fell pg the last time I did it so worth a shot again! I am back to walking in my lunch hour at work, burn a few extra calories and help normalise the hormones!
I have a couple of hypnosis tracks to listen to to help me chill out before bed!
I am also going to look into being allergy tested because I always notice a difference when I don't eat bread etc - think I might have an allergy to wheat, which might be affecting things.
I want to be prepared for the IVF - it will take about 6 weeks before the referal and all the tests etc are done. So gonna prepare my body and mind for process!
So I think I am doing everything I possibly can!
Thank you for all your support ladies - it's really lovely!
