Wow, that was a surprise, to get a message on this board.

I have followed this site since about April / May last year although I don't check it every day. I usually post on WebMd - when I was ttc I posted on the complex fertility condition board and now on the pregnancy after infertility. They are ...

Sorry, I'm not so used to your lingo!!! I usually post on a board here in USA so I just used the same lingo.

Blue team is cos I'm expecting a boy and via IVF. Thats all

You have a great weekend.

Love
Missy

Hi Ladies,
I am British but living in the USA. On one of our TV channels here we
get What Not to Wear with Trinny & Susannah. Now I remember
reading a bit ago that Trinny was pg with her first at age 39 after IVF.
I heard this way back in about July 2003. Does anyone know if she has
had her baby yet ...

Jen,<br>I don't usually post on this site too much (I lurk from time to time). I felt compelled to write and let you know that all is not lost. I think you're right, you lost one twin but I also think your hcg levels are high enough for one to survive. Also a lot of people have bleeding and find ...

(Butting in, hope this is OK Lorraine!!)<br><br>Hi Sharon,<br>I have also been thinking of you. How did it go yesterday? hope you're not feeling too sore. Sending you lots of get well wishes from across the pond.<br><br>Lorraine, how are you feeling now? Hope you are feeling much better.<br>I know ...

Hi Dawn,<br>Just wanted to say congratulations to you and hubby, I'm so glad when one of our own gets that BFP. Wishing you a happy & healthy nine months.<br>Missy

Hi Jackie,<br>Just wanted you to know that I know exactly how you feel. I feel so emotional right now, some days are OK when I don't think about it too much or I'm just Ok with it, other days I'm so downright miserable. I've had one failed IUI, then a failed IVF, then I had my left tube removed ...

Hi Kyla,<br>I don't think there is any need for you to worry about this, you are OK doing IVF with blocked tubes providing there is no hydrosalpinx. This is a condition where a blocked tube becomes filled with fluid - which has been proven to reduce chance of IVF success. It seems there are many ...

Hi All,<br><br>Sharon, good luck with your Dr visit today, let us know how you get on. <br>Karen, I had my left tube removed by laparoscopy and both ends were cauterised, this was day surgery, recovery was much quicker, back to normal within 1-2 wks. Are you having a laparotomy? I think this is a ...

Hi Girls,<br>I am in the US. You girls think yourself lucky. I did IUI once which cost $2950 (app $1800) and then IVF which cost $9500 (app £5900), this was not including drugs which thankfully my medical insurance paid for. I think this is the average cost in the US, some clinics are cheaper ...

Hi Sharon,<br>Just wanted to say I was thinking of you, how are you doing? hopefully keeping those embies nice and comfortable. Good Luck.<br><br>Hi Dawn,<br>Just wanted to wish you luck for this cycle. After everything you have been through you deserve for this to be your time. Can I ask you a ...

Hi Sue,<br>I'm so sorry to hear your news and I just wanted to let you know that there are ways to solve this. I know many clinics are getting good success rates with donor eggs so this maybe something you could consider. I currently live in the US and I have heard of one clinic here getting up to a ...

Hi Sharon,<br>I also had a hydrosalpinx for my first IVF. My Dr had said that my tube was open and therefore was not a hydrosalpinx so she didn't want to remove it but after my first failed IVF I insisted. I had it removed about a month ago in laparascopic surgery when she found the tube had ...

Hi Sam,<br>Thanks for writing your story and congratulations. I'm really happy for you. It's reassuring to know that miracles do happen sometimes!<br>Lets hope that everyone who visits this site will have a miracle story of their own soon.<br>Take care.<br>Missy

Hi Deb,<br>Sorry I haven't got any advice for you except to say that the drugs<br>we take are so strong, they seem to affect everyone differently. If you are really concerned then call your clinic (that's what we pay them for, right?) Do you know if you ovulated already? if you have then af should ...
