Hi everyone
Wow, It’s only been 2 days since I last posted and it feels like I've missed loads already....! Went out last night to this new bar in Leeds, it was really really nice, bit hung over this morning, so bare with me. Don't worry that was my last night out, getting myself in fine fettle for treatment now. OH MY GOD IT’S ONLY 6 WEEKS UNTIL I START STIMS..!
MLG - What are you like, doing your injection on the train? The things we have to do eh? It's a good job no-one could get in there, imagine if they saw you, they'd wonder what the bloody hell you were doing, injecting yourself????? Hope the headaches are non-existent now? Great news about the blood work and scan... take care.
Souris - Hi Hun, yes I did get the menopur save and sound, thanks - I pm'd you actually, did you get it.? Have you had a computer nerd come round yet, to try get back you pics.? You have a great time in Germany won't you, my brother lives there, he is in the army so has been posted there for three years, I really miss him, and my two little nephews, but I'll be going to visit soon. Also I hear your going to France after, I love France, my mum lives in Limoges, very nice, I'm hoping to go visit her next week. Where abouts in France are you going?
Julie - Glad you enjoyed the rallying, how did the meal go? Hope you had a lovely time? I know what you mean about people knowing in the office, I am certainly going to keep this to myself this time round. Well apart from you ladies. I don't think I could go through it again without everyone’s support on here.
Gail - Hi hun, its great to have you back, missed you. I'm jealous, I would so love to go somewhere hot now and get a lovely tan. Well I can dream can't I, my dad wants to pay for us to go on hol with him end of Aug but I can't commit myself cos of treatment, and if I do get a BFP, I would not like to fly, even when I'm over my 3 months mark, I'd still feel a bit scared about it, so I don't think we'll be going, unless I get the dreaded BFN, then I think I'll need a HOL....Have the drugs arrived yet? Can't believe its tomorrow when you start FET. Everything’s going to be fine and you’re going to get BFP end of April...!
Lisa - I am so sorry to hear your news about the lab results. Life is so unfair isn't it? I can't imagine how your DH is feeling and you of course; this must be so hard for both of you. You don't sound evil at all, it is so natural to feel the way you do. When I went for my last scan and they told me my baby's heart had stopped beating, I got a txt of a friend to say they had just given birth to a baby girl, I could believe it, I just thought, why, why tell me now. I know they didn't know but it was awful..... so I know how you feel, also my step-sister is due to give birth in the next couple of weeks and can't go anywhere where I know she'll be, like my dad asked me to go out for Sunday lunch last week, but I didn't go because I knew she'd be there. What am I guna be like when she has the baby, never see her.?????????? I think DH is right to have time out now, you both need some time to come to terms with this. Also with work, don't go back until you feel ready.!
Nick - Great news on the loosing weight and even better that you’re waking DH up for sex, they say you burn lots of calories doing that, so keep it up girl... plus you never know, it could just happen naturally for you..!
Jen - how you doing? Haven’t heard from you since you got back from skiing, hope your alright?
A big hello to anyone I've missed.
I have a question for you ladies. My boss had a word with me on Friday about my treatment, she asked if I would be doing it again in the near future, I can't believe I looked her in the eyes and said I didn't think so, if I was it be end of year. I have said this because the company I work for are going through loads of changes, we are merging also, so they are making redundancies, not sure when though, I have been told my job is save, but you never know do you, they could just tell you that. Anyway I thought if she knows I'm doing treatment again and it works I'll be off on maternity leave and things, so I'd be an easy target for them to get rid of if they knew, so I told a lie. Do you think I'm in the wrong and I should have been honest or am I doing the right thing? What if it works, how do I explain that then, my boss will know I'd lie. Unless I say, well it just happened naturally. Please help.
I am so sorry for the long message. I know I shouldn't, but I really need a coffee, so I'm off to have one.....!
Speak soon

Don't worry too much about the conversation. You can't go back now.
If I got it right you said that you didn't think you would be doing tmt soon?
If you get BFP (hope so!!!!!
) you can always say that the circumstances changed and you ended up deciding to have another go at tmt. You are meant to start in more than a month; people can easily change their feelings in 6 weeks!

Work v Treatment is such a huge issue, how r u going to take time off without 'em knowing?
Or have you booked holiday?
I learnt from work stress and a ****** boss last year that they aint worth it, dont stress over it please. And think only about your tmt and BFP. xxx
It's hard I know, I dont really know what to say for the best honey, but dont stress over it, I guess what wll be will be, and worry about work when BFP comes later. xxxx

My drugs did arrive Lucy, a day late - good out postal service !! Luckily dont need them until tomorrow. Definately looking forward to a BFP at the end of April. PMA PMA PMA We booked the trip to Egypt right after our BFN so hoping not to be going on any other holidays in the near future 
Work and treatment are so difficult. I cant get time off on short notice so I have had to be honest, its either that or keep going sick but I know i would get caught out. Every appointment I have to take as holiday or make all the hours up. As MLG said you can always say you changed your mind

Hi Luby,
I`m not sure what employment laws are like in the UK, but if your boss laid you off and used your treatment as an excuse and not the necessity of your position, I would think you could take some kind of action there.
Keep Smiling

Hi all
LIS - What can I say. I am really sorry about your news. Take time out for you and DH. Your DH needs some loving and TLC but so do you and don't forget your own feelings - I know the waiting around and the uncertainty of what comes next is awful but the answers will come in time and it may not seem it now but will all be worth it. xxx
MLG - Congrats on the news - hope stimming goes well. Getting nearer that BFP girl!!
NIKKI - Well done on the 5lb loss!!! Every pound makes a difference and you are well in the right direction!! (Keep up the sex and you will be at your target before you know it hee hee!!)
GAIL - Glad drugs arrived. PPHHHEEWW. Best of luck with it. BFP for you too. Keep up the PMA!
LUCY - Don't worry about work. Do what is right for you. If you can go thro tmt without it affecting your job/time off then what the hell! We all have a life outside work and when the BFP comes it will be worth it!! Sounds like you had a great nite out - hope hangover has subsided. I am off out tonight. Let you know how it goes! Can't wait!!
Hello to everyone else - Jen hope you and yours are ok?? Have a fab weekend girls.
Byyyeeeee xxx

Hands up who's a crapster? ME! Sorry I haven't been posting much since back from what can be loosely called a holiday.
How is everyone??
Nicki gettin jiggy on a sat morning herbert sperm (or brother of) could still be kickin about so well worth trying I reckon.
MLG treatment buddy!! Glad the side effects are better, you work too hard.
Lisa I was really sorry to see your news. What you're going through now is a bereavement, it'll take time to feel up to thinking of a way forward. Be good to yourself and dh. You still have lots of options but just take your time - sending you lots of love.
Gail all tanned and luscious and ready for action! I can't remember (sorry) is this a fresh or frozen cycle? Good luck with the meds.
Lucy don't worry about the work thing. If you did tell them about starting treatment soon they couldn't have done anything. IVF treatment is covered (or soon will be anyway) by the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) and as such means you cannot be disadvantaged from an employment point of view by undergoing this treatment.
Jen where are you? Hope all is ok
Julie what're you up to
Welcome to all the new firebirds!
I had my supressed scan on Thursday and have started the oestrogen patches to try n grow ma bad self a uterine lining worth staying for. Next scan is 16th March. I'm getting nervous about my frosties. I have 14 in the nitrogen pod - after last times ectopic debacle want to issue them with GPS and OS maps. Come on guys!! Bonnie and Clyde need to get their leg warmers on and start limbering up for the journey home! I really want this to work. That was an utterly superfluous comment.
Hope you're all doing well and enjoying your weekends
Am sending numerous positivity grenades your way
Love, Lola

Evening Gorgeous Phoenixes!
Apoogies now for haphazard message but have had quite a few vinos in me tonight!!
I want to thank you all for amazing support, I couldn't have got any where without you all .
As I mentioned yesterday, my very close friend gave birth to a gorgeous little girl Lucy yesterday. I told dh I couldn't face the hosp visit - he thought he could manage and boy, did I feel bad considering it's him who's had his b***s dissected of late!!! and not me!!
..... I had a think and decided I could stomach it, sotoday we went to visit. You know its the hardest thing I've done yet. The maternity unit is directly up the stairs from the ivf unit - you have to pass the unit's door on your way as well as park in the same car park) Glad I went tho bubbled the whole way home tho
Went to the travel agents yesterday and will be booking holiday to Sorrento, Italy soon. Only decision we are making is whether to go to Rome for 3 nights first, on way to Sorrento. Is £550 more expensive. Dh is saying, play it safe and go only to Sorrento(cause of money and paying for tmt now) but I think f**k it!!!
I deserve a damn good break cos of all this sh***y heartache 
Don't know what to book.... what do you think girlies ??

Hi Lis,
I've just read your recent post + cannot believe wot you have written!It was like reading my own words.After my first failed attempt at icsi, my sister in law had just given birth to my nephew + i sooo didnt want to go to visit but felt i had to because at the time no one knew what we were going through.It felt like i was being dragged to my own death.Also the maternity unit is in the same building as the ivf clinic so thats a killer everytime i have appointments.
I totally understand how u + your dh must be feeling at the moment as my dh has the same problem with his sperm.He had the op to remove the tissue directly from his testicles, although in our case the docs managed to find 2 sperm one of which fertilised + was emplanted, but failed.
We had donor backup just incase.
Is there any chance your clinic would perform the op again as ours did + the second time they managed to get enough sperm for 2nd icsi + freeze the remainder,altho 2nd icsi failed too.Its just a thought for you both.
Have plenty of time out together + im sure you'l get through it, each time it brought my dh + I closer together
Enjoy plenty of wine + keep me posted
Love bobs xx

Is there any chance your clinic would perform the op again as ours did + the second time they managed to get enough sperm for 2nd icsi + freeze the remainder,altho 2nd icsi failed too.Its just a thought for you both.
Have plenty of time out together + im sure you'l get through it, each time it brought my dh + I closer together
Enjoy plenty of wine + keep me posted
Love bobs xx

Lisa, I would say F*** it!!! and just go,
In 2004 we and start of 2005 we like that, and had hols in UK, and then had crap time coz of rain etc.... and all the time in 2004 we were like 'I might be Preg' I never was!!!
I say live your live, and worry about money for tmt later,
Go for it, you have to be happy first!!!!
I mean what if you never get preg ever, then u would have wasted your life waiting, sorry if thats a bit negative coming me the PMA girl, but's it true!!!
On the plus side thats good that dh is saying that, it means he's interested in going for DIUI. Otherwise he wouldnt have considered that huh???
How is your dh now re: getting over op and dealing with azoospermia?
Hi Bobs, welcome aboard!! I cant believe the girls on here now with male factor, it's great to have support and know we aren't alone!! When I first joined it was far and few between and I felt alone with Donor and IUI, but now I feel so much better..
PMA.... Remember girls xxx
