Hi all,

I've not posted on here for several months now - as I didn't feel as though I could contribute much. IVF is still (and has been for a while the next step), with a complicated medical history, my Dr is reluctant to try IVF until the very.very.very end of the road - which is fair enough ...

I love this strand - its so positive and optimistic!

And some make me chuckle!!

Roll on the days when we get to name our precious ones!!

Hi Mia,

I felt so sad reading your posting - your heart sounds so heavy. I agree with DebP that some form of counselling might be a good idea - the challenge is likely to be getting him to agree to it. However, counselling might be a way for both of you to demonstrate your commitment to getting ...

You poor thing - you have my real sympahies and buckets of positive thoughts are on their way to you.

I can imagine how scarey it must have been for you - people should never have to go through things like this - but much as it sucks - they do, and its normally the good guys!

It is so up to you ...

Thanks all SO much for the warm welcome. Feels so good to log on and come onto this site. Seems to calm me down somehow!

LoL & Good Wishes to all

I think thats really sweet and not at all a jinx - don't let yourself think like that! My DH has a nik-name picked out for when we get that far down the road 'fluff'! 'Squidgy' was used by my now pregnant sister in law so we're keeping this nik name quiet!

Very best of luck to all!

Hi Little P,

Thanks for the response! I don't have any dates at all yet. Am chasing my consultant for an appointment. At the mo - I'm just absorbing the whole ' we need IVF ' shock!

Will join a thred once I'm a bit further down the line!

I honestly find one of the hardest things to deal with is a happy mum to be - it makes me sound terrible and it brings out the worst in me. My DH and I had the most awful Xmas day surrounded by his sister and family talking about nothing but the new baby, the nursery, names, clothes - the unborn ...

Hi Debbie,

So sorry to hear about your 2nd -ve - you must be feeling awful. Sending lots of warm thoughts your way - try to be kind to yourself over the next few days and weeks. Fingers x'd for you if you decide to go again!

I ask about the transplant because I had a heart tp 9 years ago. My ...

Amers,

I can really understand just how you felt receiving those phone calls. Sometimes it just seems to cruel when there are a spate of pregnancies that close to home. Its a weird feeling - I don't want them not to be pregnant - I just want to know what it feels like for me.

When I get ...

Hi Thistle,

So sorry you've had 3 no-gos' - must have been very drustrating watching a programme so far removed from your reality. I'll keep all fingers and toes crossed for you with the next round!

I found out last week my DH and I would need IVF - so REALLY early days. Programme was a bit of a ...

Thanks for the welcome!! Its lovely to get a response!

I don't really mind if no-one has any specific experience of IVF and Transplants - though any information which comes my way can only help - I'm just really grateful to finally find somewhere honest, open and supportive where I can feel ...

I can talk for hours about my choice of baby names - I think it helps to keep the dream alive. I just start to get a bit sensitive when pregnant friends start talking about the same names that I've had 'dibs' on for years!

Still - I guess its not all that important. When it happens for us - the ...

Have just voted aswell! 89% +ve - will watch and wait!
