Hi you two, Just wanting to wish you good luck for this week. I've read Fi that you're down for e/c on friday now I think, but I've totally lost track of you Helen - where you upto sweetie? I hope I'm not too late. Haven't been on the home PC in a while as its been too hot and I'm pretty tired at the moment (and loving it of course) so sorry if I've missed any mail from you - I'll try to catch up soon. lots of love to you both Fiona xxx

Oh Fi, I'm so sorry for you - I know exactly how you feel as this is very similar to how our last cycle went. Well, I suppose not any slower than usual but then I ended up on 600iu (8 ampules) of drugs - the very maximum you can be on and still only got 4 eggs (but one immature) we were so close to abandoning a few times but we persevered and as you know is the best cycle ever for us. Please remember it is quality that counts and them taking their time to grow is not a bad thing, just frustrating for you. I will have my fingers crossed for you - when will you know for sure if you are going ahead? Lets hope you've got one or two hiding which make things more optimistic - you wouldn't be the first! Sending lots of PMA and hugs your way mate. lots of Love Fiona xxxxx [Edited by fiona_lk on 13-Aug-03 06:41]

Hi Fiona (and Fi) Do you know, I was thinking about posting you a message on the pg board, but didn't really want to tempt fate by wondering over there, so am so glad you posted here for us! What a pumpkin you are! I have been to the hospital every day this week so far for a sacan and blood test. My one good vein is holding up so far, but don't know for how much longer! I have one fab follicle which is 17mm that should be ready to go anytime, but I am not surging yet, so back tomorrow for more blood and another scan! It is day 11 of my cycle today, so I am hoping that I will be surging tomorrow! That means that the little frosties should be put back maybe Sunday or Monday. I am getting so excited and am quite calm and feeling really +ive about it all. Hope you are impressed. I know there is still a chance that the frosties might not survive the thaw, but trying so hard not to think about that. I need some tips from you on how to relax during ET. At LGI, they now do a scan on your tummy whilst they are putting them back. After 3 ET's I know I will still be nervous about things going up my you know what! How are you and your bump, so pleased to hear from you, can't wait to meet up with you and Les again. How did your weekend go in Stratford? Fi - hang on in there matey, these things are sent to try us. I'll keep everything crossed for you and will be cheering you on from the sidelines! Much love as ever to my favourite Fionas! Helen. xxxx

hi guys, well, this cycle has been the total opposite of my last two and since they were negative i s'ppose i should be optimistic?! the clinic were being careful by starting me on 75 and 150 alternating, then with all this heat they think it hasn't helped. i've been on 225 for 5 days now , today i had a 15mm,14mm, 12,11 and about 25 at 10mm!!!! my prob was OHSS so they are dropping me back to 150 tomorrow and scan friday..... i sooooo need a hug fi!!!! i can't take it, plus i am not working at the mo cos of treatment, so have to go back next fri (that was s'pposed to be a week after ec!!!) dh is going away now tomorrow for work , back sat so my mind will be on overdrive. i am trying to chill, but i so hope this works out. to not get to ec would devastate me. how was stratford fi anyhow. are you around for a chat sometime, no one seems to chat anymore. helen, thanks your msg,lets hope we are both going in monday!!! lucky day for us, love fi XXX

Hi sweeties, Well Helen, nearly a week gone hope you've been taking it easy and that PMA is in full flow. I read about you lifting Bliss and agree with Tracey that it is going to be no problem at all (probably by now you'll have forgotten it anyway hopefully). Fi - You have been through such a difficult time I really hope its all sorting out for you now - I've missed a specific post from you, but if you are having e/c today I hope that you get lots of nice juicy eggies which will give you plenty of embies to go at ... and NO OHSS!! Are you two doing anything nice over the weekend? My brother and family are over on BH so going to let the cat out of the bag - although mum has already told Les she knows! Well, hugs to you both - I think sometimes you'll feel like I'm deserting you but I think about you all the time, just my body can't cope with more than a days work at the moment - sad heh. Hope you'll join me in these feelings soon. Lots of Love Fiona xxxx

Hi my favourite Fionas! I am fine, have got over lifting Bliss up - at last, took a few days though of Tracey S, Nik and DH telling me off! Have quite bad AF pains today, but who knows what that means - well we all know it probably doesn't mean a thing! Fi - I am testing on Friday - eeek. Blood test in the morning and then result after 3pm. Other Fi - how did it go telling your Mom? Hope it went ok, how did she guess anyway? How are you and Les doing, still grinning from ear to ear??? Can't wait to see you both soon. I don't think for one minute that you have deserted us, you have to put your feet! Hang in there Fi - looks like you have really good embies, with loads of cells, tucked up nice and warm. I'm here if you need me... Lots of love to you both Helen. xxx
