Dear Natalie
You will probably not read this but I am really sorry that you are leaving us but on the other hand so completely understand. I just burst into tears when I read Prissy's news. I was so happy for her but so sad that it has not happened for me & dh - and I have only faced one failed attempt so far. It is such a mixed bag of emotions. If you do read this & decide to cycle again then listen to this. My acupuncturist told me yesterday that he had treated one brave lady who got pregnant for the first time on IVF 15. She went to a new ivf clinic, changed her diet, had acupuncture - the whole nine yards, but it did work for her.
Wishing you much happiness which ever course you go next. And thanking you for all your support of us and the constant responses to all our questions.
Love Carolyn xxxx

Dear Ilona
You may have seen already but on the over 40's thread there is a lot of info around ladies who have gone to Barcelona and Kiev and used donor eggs. I have been sneaking looks as I approach the big 4-0. My acupuncturist said that some of the treatment overseas is amazing & cheap.
Stay in touch & let us know what you decide. If you win the lottery then we will be asking you to fund all the girls who have been unsuccessful so far!!!!

My review appointment is Wednesday so I'll let you know what they tell me.
Wishing you & dh lots of luck for the future.
Love Carolyn xxxx

Baby dust to everyone else. Just these two ladies were with us from the very start and need our support right now.
Hope - good luck if your FET is going ahead today. Let us know how you get on as we may go this route next as we have 6 precious frosties waiting for us. Remember to rest lots and take it really easy after transfer
Wendy - not long til test day for you now. Hope that you are staying away from evil pee sticks
Em - have a great birthday weekend away with dh

My dh takes me away Monday & Tuesday for my birthday. My tubes are so messed up that we can just enjoy ourselves and not think about baby making at all as we know that it can never happen that way.
Jackoo - hope that your brave little one is fighting away
Thinking of everyone else on the 2ww. It is agony but it will be worth it in the end. Sure that we will end this month with lots of

Certainly due some more.
Have a nice weekend everyone (bank holiday for those in the UK). For those in London - the weather simply cannot get any worse, can it!??? At the moment, it looks more like Feb than the end of May.
Love Carolyn xxxx
