Hi Everyone, Hope everyone is bearing up in this heat!!! Sharon - Hope E/T went okay today, had my fingers crossed for you. Now just the matter of the 2ww. Good luck. Bertie - Good luck with your E/T tomorrow. Michelle - Hope FET went okay today. Gilly - We are both up for E/C tomorrow, I have mine at 9:30 so will be thinking of you at midday. Fingers crossed for the both of us. Really nervous but okay. The hospital have give me the choice of general anasthetic or self administered sedation, I am going to opt for the self administered at least I will be in control. Good luck for tomorrow can't wait to compare notes. Aly - If I don't post tomorrow then good luck for Friday. Fi - Can totally sympathis, just keep drinking the water and hopefully those follies will have a growing spurt over the next few days. E/C will be here before you now it.

Hi Guys Just thought I'd join in - if that's ok! Did post on Fi's thread, but you all seem to be posting here. I have had 3 failed ICSI's and am now in the process of FET. Had 2 scans and blood test so far and all looks well. Going back on Monday for another scan and more blood test as they are waiting to see when I surge. I'm having a natural FET, so no drugs until the tiny ones are back in and then I think I'll just have cyclogest! We have 3 frozen, so hoping like mad that at least 2 survive - trying to be mega PMA and saying lots of +ive things to myself - in between running a business, looking after a puppy and sunbathing! Hope you are all ok and hope it's not too hot for all your bellies with lots of follies in etc. Those who have had EC - don't panic, all will be well and embies will be soon back in you where they belong and to those on 2ww - OMG, I can sympathise big style, hang on in there and I'll soon be joining you! Much love Helen. xxx

Hi Everyone, Hope everyone is ok. Had E/T yesterday, clinic rang in the morning to say we had 7 embryos (we were sooooo happy as in the past we have had problems with fertilization) Went to clinic in afternoon and the doctor checked me over to make sure I was ok to go ahead with E/T - which I was. So we had 3 good quality embryos put back all with assisted hatching. Im feeling better now apart from a crampy tummy. Bertie; Sounds like your E/C went fine, 11 eggs well done. Have you had E/T today? Michelle; Hope your FET went ok yesterday - welcome to the 2WW!!! Gilly & Lynne; Thinking of you today hope your E/Cs went ok. Aly; Good luck for your E/C tomorrow. Fi; Thank you for your lovely message. Hang in there with your follicles, best things come to those who wait! Helen; welcome, I too have had 3 failed ICSIs. Good luck with your FET keep us informed as to when E/T might be. Well Im officially on the dreaded 2WW, Ive been sat in the garden today trying to stay positive. Good luck everyone, take care.

Hiya all We got 5 fertilized eggs from the 11 collected. Had 2 put back today (they couldnt freeze the other 3 though as they werent of freezable quality.) We got a piccy of the 2 put back. DH is so excited that he is scanning the piccy to use as a screen saver on his computer!! Well we are now on the 2ww. Have got test on 19th (booked it this morning at hosi). Sharon - I'm here to join you in the garden on the 2ww. Michelle - hope the FET went ok yesterday. Lynne and Gilly - hope everything has gone ok 2day. Did you get some of those ace drugs they gave me - out of it or what!! Aly - good luck for 2mrw. Keep going with the water. Good luck to everyone - I'm off to shop on the Asda internet site now. I cant trust dh with a list on Saturday!! I'm sure he'd forget the important things like chocolate!! luv Bertie xx

Hi Everyone, Well done Bertie and Sharon on your E/T hope you both have you feet up and enjoying the sunshine. I am sure this good weather is a lucky charm, everything crossed for you both. Gilly - Hope everything went okay today? Can't wait to hear you news? Michelle - Hope your keeping those little embryo's nice a warm. Aly - Good luck for tomorrow, its not as bad as you are imagining right now, I was having kittens this morning but was pleasantly surprised at how quick and relatively painless it was and hooray I was not sick!!!! I will be thinking of you. Helen - welcome to ACB sorry to hear about you failed ISCI's it will be your turn this time. Had E/C today and got 14 eggs can't believe it expected to only get about 7 so over the moon, felt strange leaving them there but should be back to collect them on Saturday. Should get a call tomorrow morning to tell us how many have fertilised so fingers crossed. Not feel to bad, just a bit like my insides have been put in a washing machine. Opted for the self administered sedation and it was great got to see what was going on and hardly felt any pain, dh was great. Good luck to all Lots of Love Lynne

Hi ACB's Hope you are all ok and drinking plenty of water in this hot weather. Well, had E/C today & got 6 eggs. Felt a bit disappointed as it was a lot less than we've had on previous cycles. Keeping our fingers (and everything else) crossed that we get at lease two to put back. I suppose I was hoping for more so we would have some to freeze as we've talked about this being our last cycle. Anyway, must say they gave me a general anesthetic, but I'm sure I came round while they were still doing it cos I could feel sharp pains and could hear voices! Other than that I feel fine, just a bit tired. Lynne - Well done!! I'm sure you'll have a nice lot of embies out of that lot. I hate the wait for the phone call re fertilisation don't you? Sharon & Bertie - WOW, the dreaded 2WW is here. Hopefully will be joining you at the weekend. Put those feet up & relax. Aly - You'll be fine tmrw. The thought of it all is always worse. Good luck, will be thinking of you. Helen - Welcome to the ACB's, hopefully we'll have a very ++++ month. To all the others - hope you are all ok, let us know how you are doing. Best wishes Gill xxxx P.S. Just read the info on the antibiotics they've given me - it says avoid direct sunlight - think thats going to be a bit difficult!!!

Hi Everyone Just wanted to say thanks for all the welcoming messages - you guys are so sweet. I really hope we all have lots of ++++ives this month. Sharon, Lynne, Gilly - thanks for your messages, anything I can do to help, let me know. As I have been through 3 2wws, if anyone has any questions, let me know. I know that lots of you have been through the mill as well, it's nice to hold hands isn't it? Nicola M - I probably won't have my FET until 17 / 18 ish of August, so I'll just be a bit behind you!I have to go back on Monday for another scan and blood test and then they'll decide when they want me in next. Bit worrried though as they measure everything through blood tests and I don't have good veins at all - oh well, won't worry about that now! Are you haveing natural or medicated cycle? Michelle S - are you at LGI? I remember you from last time - did you have OHSS? Let me know how you get on. On well, work calls, so better go. Love to everyone, stay +ive, tell yourself you will have a baby this time and try to keep chilled out! Much love Helen. xxx
