Hi everyone,

I am gearing up for my third attempt at IVF, hopefully will start down-regging in March. Seems a long way off but it's great to start getting to know cycle buddies.

Last year I was a May Flower! Is there anyone else on this thread who I have cycled with before?

Good luck to the ...

Hi Pauline,

Nice to see you on this thread. Looks like we'll be trying again at the same time! I start down regulating next week ready for FET in Jan.

After everything we've been through this year it feels strange to be excited again but I guess that's a positive thing!

Good Luck

Hi Ladies,

I'd like to join the Dec buddies but may cross-over into Jan. Will start down-regging in a couple of weeks in preparation for FET.

Hi Claire,

The same thing happened to me in July. At my eight week scan, the embryo was very small and by week 9, it had stopped growing. It is extremely sad and difficult to cope with especially after going through IVF.

I have had a break for a few months to get my energy levels up and my ...

Sad news

Hi Ladies,

I was cycling with the Mayflowers and JuJu babies and got a +ive result from our first attempt at IVF. At eight weeks, I had a scan but the nurse expressed her fears that the fetus was smaller than it should be.

We went back today but unfortunately the scan showed that our baby had not ...

Alison, I'm here!

I did cheat and test early because from about day 13 of ET, I was still getting AF pains every day but also I started feeling slightly woozy and extremely tired after getting home from work.

I still have the pains in my abdomen and a slight back ache so I too was convinced AF ...
