Thanks very much to all of you. You are a great support.<br><br>Merry Christmas<br>Love Sandra

Following my excited positive blood test post the other day I have now re-tested and the hcg levels have dropped right back so it is now negative. Feel pissed off as so near but at least now I know they can implant and I can have a few beers over Christmas! Will start again in March.<br><br ...

Merry Christmas to you too. NZ sounds lovely. I'm going to the Canaries for a week! and then starting again in March so we can cycle together.<br><br>Love<br>Sandra X

Another one, fantastic. This is really good news.<br><br>If it was me I would have to tell them as I don't think I could keep it to myself. Or at least the key people because I would tell them anyway if I did miscarry. hopefully that won't be an issue for you this time. Fingers crossed.<br><br>Have ...

Lisa<br><br>That's fantastic news - I can't believe it - well done.<br><br>I know that you hear about these things but I rarely believe them and especially with ICSI. That is the best news.<br><br>You have to wait and tell him face to face, what a surprise it would spoil it doing it over the phone ...

Hi Ger<br><br>Welcome to the site - it is a God Send.<br><br>I am on day 15 of 2ww following FET after 1st failed ICSI in August. I too had watery blood on day 4 of 2ww but was told it could be down to implantation. It only lasted one morning but since then I have had bad af pains and tested ...

Thanks Frances, that gives me some hope. Just hope I am a late implanter. Sorry it didn't work out for you but good luck for 29th onwards. 2003 will be a good one!<br><br>Sandra

Hi all<br><br>tested today and clinic just phoned to say it is positive but very low and want me to test again on Friday. HCG is 32 which is quite bad isn't it? They tell me it could very easily increase but I have bad period pains today and feel it is more likely to decrease. Has anyone been ...

Hi<br><br>I don't know if you have read Dr Robert Winston's book on IVF but in that he actually recommends a glass or two of wine! If I have been out then I have had a glass of wine if I have wanted one. My consultant said one every now and then is not going to hurt. <br><br>Best of luck!<br>Sandra

Hi Michelle<br><br>I am testing tomorrow following FET and I have had cramps since day 2 - some so bad they wake me up at night. I feel AF is around the corner as have had spotting too. I am on oestrogen and not sure if this does affect an HPT.<br><br>I have seen positings on this site from girls ...

Well done Mands - it was an FET wasn't it?<br><br>Take care of yourself you lucky girl!<br><br>Sandra

Hi Sammy, Scorry and Dawn<br><br>Thanks very much for your replies they have put my mind at rest. I am still getting the pains and had a bit more spotting yesterday but testing tomorrow so will soon be out of my misery one way or the other.<br><br>Dawn I am sorry to hear your news but wish you luck ...

Hi all<br><br>Chrissi sorry to hear your news but glad you are keeping your chin up and going for it again soon. You can have a good Christmas!<br><br>I am testing tomorrow. Don't really know what to expect. I think deep down I know it hasn't worked as had spotting days 2 and 4 of 2ww and spotting ...

Hi all<br><br>It absolutely scares me to death to have to think about the rest of my life without a child. Perhaps because am only on 2nd attempt and dh and I had planned to go 4 or 5 times so haven't made myself think about it properly yet. The problem with me is I can sort of envisage life without ...

Hi Rachel<br><br>Welcome back. Hope you have had a good few months of self indulgence! Can't say I am mad enough to start over Christmas but if it fell that way I would as I don't want to 'waste' any months! Am half way through 2ww following FET so should know by Christmas.<br><br>Good luck.<br ...
