Hi Wendy & everyone,

Sorry I haven't posted in so long but we've been off work this week. Wendy, your situation sounds very similar to my own but to be honest, I'm finding this time round, after the first unsuccessful ICSI to be more stressful. I don't know if the drugs are playing a contributory ...

Hi There, sorry Nicki, forgot to thank you for responding also, you've been through a lot also, what with 3 FET, as you say the worst thing is the waiting. I only have 2 embroys so hopefully at least one will make it, but never say never. Good luck to you also, speak to you soon, Heather b.

Hi There everyone, sorry for taking so long to respond but we went away for a few days after I last posted on the site.

It was great to hear from everyone. Bel B, I really hope your scan went well a couple of days ago and so wish things will work well for you this time.

S J Brown, sorry to hear ...

It's been nearly a year since I logged onto the site. It's always lovely to hear everyones messages and to see how they're getting on. I don't know if anyone remembers me from before, but last April hubby and I went through ICSI, unfortunately it didn't work. Luckily we had 2 frozen embroys stacked ...

Hi Adey, Tracey, Dawn, Shell & Clare,<br><br>Well, the dirty deed is done. I can honestly say it wasn't too bad at all. (Thank God there was no wind broke). I had slight pain when the consultant put that lovely big needle into my left ovary but apart from that it went fine.<br><br>I got 15 eggs (I ...

Hi Sam, Shell etc,<br><br>Had e/c done yesterday, everything went fine. I also asked whether it was normal to bleed after e/c, e/transfer and they said it was, it was really quite common (after all the futtering about they're doing in there), so try not to worry.<br><br>Good luck to everyone on the ...

Tracey,<br><br>Hang on in there. It's all like a roller coaster ride, but you'll get through. My e/c went well yesterday and e/transfer due on Sunday and then we can spur each other on.<br><br>Not looking forward to the lovely pessaries, at least you sound like you're eating healthily, I'm turning ...

Hi Debs,<br><br>Don't know much about FSH levels etc, but all I'd say is never give up hope. You've as much chance as anyone else and don't be down heartened by what people say. I think the clinic should be supporting you instead of saying that you've little chance.<br><br>Keep trying,<br><br>Lots ...

Alison,<br><br>Wishing you all the luck in the world. I'm sure everything will turn out fine. <br><br>Enjoy the time off work - if you need it.<br><br>Bye for now<br><br>Heather b.<br><br><br><br>

Vikie,<br><br>I also experienced bleeding during the sniffing stage. I phoned the clinic, who assured me it was totally normal. I think because at the sniffing stage which is down regulation, the sniffings tries to either (thin or thicken) the womb, so honestly don't worry about it.<br><br>My ...

Shell,<br><br>hi there.<br><br>Know what you mean about the boob thing, I feel like I'm carrying someone elses along with my own (so bloody big and sore).<br><br>Anyway, I don't know if anyone else experienced the bloated feeling. Bloody hell, I'm so full of wind and can't fit into any clothes - I ...

Tracey,<br><br>So glad everything went well. Hope you're feeling fine now. It's so nice to enjoy your lovely sense of humour - you make me smile.<br><br>Glad when my e/c is over tomorrow (it all seems like a lifetime). Can't wait to have you to chat to during our 2ww.<br><br>Speak to you soon,<br ...

Thanks Adey,<br><br>Your wee words of encouragement really spurred me on. It's so nice to know someone is thinking of me.<br><br>A bit apprehensive about tomorrow but to be honest I'll be glad when it's all over.<br><br>I'm blown up like a barge balloon at the moment so I'll just die if I exploid ...

Nicky,<br><br>So lovely to read what you had to say. You give a lot of hope and said some really lovely things.<br><br>Hope you, dh and the twins have a lovely birthday tomorrow - you deserve it.<br><br>As you say, the girls are great on the site and always willing to help.<br><br>You sound like you ...

Hi Sam,<br><br>Just reading your story and feeling so much admiration for you. You so deserve a holiday now. I know all this is hard but at least you tried, who knows what lies ahead for us all. <br><br>Hang on in there, have a really great break with hubby.<br><br>Sending lots of love down the line ...
