If at first you don't succeed...

Well, a long time since i have posted on here about my journey!

In a nut shell, i am still not pregnant!

I had a 3 day embryo transfer in October 2013 and a 2 day embryo transfer in November 2013. I was going to have another 3 day transfer in December 2013 although i got a call on the way to the clinic advising that the transfer would have to be cancelled as the embryo did not survive!

Had a lovely break for Christmas with friends and family and then tried another 3 day transfer in January 2014 - once again, unsuccessful.

I planned to try for another transfer in February, although the place i go for my scans mucked up and missed my follicle, so by the time we realised what had happened (thought i wasn't actually going to ovulate), it was too late to do a transfer as i had ovulated days and days before hand! Absolutely heartbreaking.

I have just had another scan today, with my largest follicle at around 12mm, so having another scan in 3 days time which will hopefully show that the follicle is over 16mm. We are trying things a different way this time and instead of waiting for my body to ovulate by itself, i will give myself an ovidrel injection once the clinic says, they are also going to do my transfer under anesthetic this time as it is kinder to the embryo (due to all my scar tissue where my cervix is supposed to be) and they can place the embryo directly into the endometrial lining.

Guess i've just gotta trust that they know what they're talking about, and that maybe, just maybe i still have a chance at having another baby.
