Teri!!!!!!!!!! TWINS! so happy for your double success! Wow! That news must've made your dad perk up a bit, I'd guess!

MzVee, I decided to get myself into more "civil" kinda work about a decade ago when I was thinking my private sector work would never cut it if I were to become a mum even if I had a partner... now, without one, and styltryn, I think if I were still in the private sector, I'd need to earn enough to get an au pair or nanny full time, but even in my civil type job, I think I'll need part time help, at least for awhile. Sounds kinda like what Kathryn has done career-wise. I'm glad I have less stress, more stable schedule, etc. in general, bc I really am not super woman!!!

Yikes about the bent needle, Jen! They should pack a spare needle, huh?! I think this sounds like your best follies ever, so I'm sure you were determined to get that hcG in - very courageous! Sorry to hear about the ruff day... but it can only get better after tomorrow, I'd say! for your IUI #9 success!

Becca, the clomid and Gonal F work on different things... clomid helps you ovulate and Gonal F helps more and bigger follies grow... so, maybe he thinks you need both.

Charltac, hang in there! Sending you lots of !

Totally beat after a long day! Maybe for once I'll get to bed before midnight!
