Compatability tests

Hi Girls,

I haven't posted on here in a while as DH and I had decided to go down the adoption route. However, we found out last week that we are unsuitable to adopt as DH has children who do not live in this country - he is deemed unstable in relationships as he is not with the mother.

Anyway, to ...

Hi,

Just thought I'd let you know that I waited for a natural m/c rather than a D & C. My clinic advised me to wait 2wks and that things would happen towards the end of those 2wks.

I couldn't face putting my body through anymore stress and thought the best thing was for it to happen naturally. I ...

Hi Girls,

Just thought I should let you know that I didn't go for my beta today as I started bleeding this morning. I woke up with bad cramps and there was AF 10mins later. DH and I are gutted :cry:

This was our last try, we have no frosties and I have no more hope left. I am so tired of this and ...

Hi Girls,

Just a quickie to let you know that all is well for Sweden. We fly out Monday with EC on Wednesday. I had my one and only scan today and there were 11 decent sized follies (5 over 18mm) and some smaller ones which may grow before EC. Here's hoping :D

Julie - good luck for Tuesday, hope ...

Hey Girls!

Just did my first injection - how nervous!! Had a bit of a panic and lost some of the dosage out of the vial (I'm meant to get 3 days worth out of one but looks like I will only get 2) - I've emailed my consultant so hopefully he will get back to me and let me know it is ok. I have ...
