Cheers!

Well i am focussing on the things i have at the moment and not the things that i have not got - its a short term coping strategy but it is getting us through it!

Also i am keeping myself busy with adopting a new dog and doing work for a rescue etc!!!

Busy busy busy lol!

Hello all!

I have not posted for a while, the reason is, is that we have been refused anymore treatment on NHS, they have not explained why as you can imagine, we are trying to just get on with things at the moment!

Anyway on a lighter note i thought that i would encourage my IVF friends to help ...

I have just come across the HFEA website so i thought that i would look at my hospitals live birth rates, well i wish i had not now!!

My hospital only has a 11.8% live birth rate for fresh cycles and 7.5% live birth rate for FET??

This is really low?????? this does not inspire me for my treatment??

I had transfer on Wednesday 24th October!!

I hate this 2ww - it would be better that at the transfer they could tell straight away if it was going to work or not and they told you lol!!

have another week before my test date and it has already felt like a life time - i am normally a HPT addict ...

When are you due to test??

I am testing 10th November!!

I have experience of this!! my partner has 2 children (arghhh teenagers) that live with us half the week and i feel that he also does not fully comprehend the struggle of IVF as he has 2 children of his own!!

I think that if you and your partner dont have any children then you go through the ...

I would not read too much into the brownish spotting as i have had this on a few of my cycles and unfortunately they were all bfn, however some people have this and they get bfp's you just can't judge it before test day!!

I am due to have transfer next week!! i have those 2 weeks they seem to last forever!!

I am hopefully have FET at the end of October!!

Beachbaby - We got to the top of the list before the 1 cycle rule came in so our Authority funded 3 fresh cycles (the FET do not count)!!

I think in my case it is shear subbornness that has kept me going and the thought of never having children fills me with such dread that stopping has never been an option!

I had an etopic pregnancy in 2002 and it was then that they found out that my other tube was structurally ...

Yes that is my day 21 appointment - wow we will be cycling together!!

I am starting my millionth (slight exageration) Frozen cycle on 25th September - it really worries me - we have 4 embie frozen and i think that this will be our last try!

Fingers crossed - anyone else starting at the same time?

well i have tested this morning even though my test day is not until tomorrow and it was -ve - so it looks like its a BFN for me AGAIN! as i am sure testing 1 day early wont make a difference to getting a positive / negative

Natalie Anne - finger crossed for you! (where abouts in Cheshire are you? i am in Hyde)

Well i have done really well this time - i have not bought any HPT's (usually i have tested everyday on the 2nd week lol)!

I am going to buy a HTP tonight from the local supermarket, i may or may not be tempted ...
