Hi Girls,

APologies it has been some time since I posted on this site. As you know after two failed IVF's last year I got a natural BFP in MArch this year aged 45+!! This is my first pregnancy so we did not want to tell family or friends until we had seen the little one on the scan end of May ...

Hi Girls,

Lisa - I am so sorry to read your post - sending you a big hug :( :(

DebraP - you know your own body - take it easy (how with your schedule I'm not sure!) :(

Randa - you too have been through so much not just physically - sending you a hug too :)

Children - I believe that yoga and ...

Thank you all for your lovely wishes.

I remember reading about inspirational stories when TTC and they always helped me stay positive. It is now really strange being one of those stories myself.

I do hope that it helps at least one person to keep trying and to achieve their own miracle.

Love to ...

Hi Girls,

It is a very long time since I posted here but I just wanted to send a message to Debra P and Caroline P and Randa who were so supportive last year when I had two IVF cycles which both failed.

In Jan went for my review at the Lister in London but as I had turned 45 last November I knew ...

HI Over's,

Debra - I hope you have better news tomorrow - this is such a difficult road to tread :?

Randa - glad to hear your staying healthy and can look forward to all those frosties in waiting. :)

Caroline, Smita and everyone else (soory not a lot of personal today) thinking of you.

Well, I ...

Hi Amfy,

I find when on Buserlin on the higher dose before stimms and to a lesser extent when stimming that I get blurry or poorer vision.

As it is putting us into a mini-menopause I guess its not unusual. Do have yourself checked out with the clinic and i hope everything returns to normal and you ...

Jules - You are a strong person having so much to deal with but you know when I strated on this journey there were lots of hurdles even to get started and once on the journey its amazing what happens. :D

DebraP - as they say it only takes one. Its ok to feel frustrated and down by the ...

Hi Everyone,

I'm back after my failed first IVF cycle in July/August. The clinic were pleased with my response and so are supporting us for another cycle even though I'm 44 almost 45....

Started BCP on Sept 15 - having baseline scan on 29th and if all ok will start Buserelin shots same day. Having ...

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to let you know that my 2ww rollercoaster came crashing to and end yesterday on Day12 when my period arrived big time. Thankfully my DH arrived back before and as all this happened to me yesterday whilst working down in London at client's office he dashed down to gather me ...

Hi DebraP,

Just wanted to say thanks for that. Hope you're doing well today.

I've been feeling ill since mid-morning and nothing I do is taking it away - hope its a good sign or maybe just a bug ::

Hi Caroline,

Thank you so much for sharing the info on your clinic and cycle. As this is my first IVF and not sure if they will offer me more than one shot because of my age it is heartening to see your result and know your treatment so I can discuss whatever options they may or may not offer me if ...

Hi Everyone,

Thank you all for your kind wishes and support.

CarolieP - you are an inspiration just 1 year younger than me and your pregnant - how wonderful. Do you min dme asking where you are and which clinic you're attending? Did you have straight IVF? Spologies if this is too much to ask ...

Hi Everyone,

Joanne - I am so sorry to hear your news, what a blow. Take care, cry lots and be gentle with yourself :(

Sand: My test date is 16/17 - I'm confused - if I count Aug 3 ET as Day 1 then its August 16th - if I add 14 days to August 3 its August 17th so I shall test on both days. Any ...

Hi All,

I agree, this 2ww business is perhaps the toughest part of the whole journey. I seem to swing from chilled and PMA all bouncy and happy to being an obsessive knicker checker full of Henrietta hormones. I am sure it is all to do with the massive dose of Cyclogest each night. I seem to have ...

Hi Everyone,


Thank you all for your messages of support and encouragement. I had my EC on August 1st. They collected four eggs from 4 follies and all 4 fertilised!! Had ET on August 3rd - one little guy hadn't made it through the night, one was a bit weak and the other two were class A, perfect ...
