Hello

Baby Annabel has arrived! She was born on 9th August weighing 6lb7oz at 1515hrs. She is so petite and of course gorgeous! Sorry it's taken a week to tell you but promise to speak soon at length. Thank you all for being there from her conception. Thinking of you all and as I say I promise to write soon.

Lots of love and hugs.

Hi Girls!!
In my excitement of Camilla's baby girl I did not post to Jens.....

Jen- I am so happy that you feel good about the decisions that the surgeons made. I am also very glad the surgery went well for you. But most importantly.. you could again be an October buddy! It is fate for you and Loolers. BFP's for everyone.. all around.

Littles- thinking of you. Hoping that you are coming to peace about decisions. Know that we are hear to listen to any rants, cries or laughs.

Thinkin of the crew

Hi gang

CAMILLA CONGRATULATIONS ON BABY ANNABEL.
Bet she is gorgeous, you are a lucky girl enjoy every second.

Well i am still sore and quite emotional but will get through this. We are made of tough stuff in Soctland and won't let this ivf crap get me down for too long. Am trying to concentrate on the Big 3, which is not far away now Just hope now the Hydro has gone i have a better chance at getting a BFP.
On a happier note, the house sale has all gone through and we are defo on the move, Sep 1st. Don't feel excited yet as i need to see the keys in my hand to believe it. We have waited so long for this and can't wait to have my own garden at last (see how easily pleased i am, i only want the simple things in life that everyone else has).

Ok will try to log on tomorrow for a while, am feeling stronger but still hurts and feel a bit dizzy and sick at times but am always thinking of my girls.
A special hug to Loops and Littles who are struggling at the moment.

Love Jen x

Hi Twirls!

I hope my good news makes you feel better and more positive and not worse..... cause you girls mean the world, moon and starts to me and I truly believe that it will happen for all of us.

We are having a baby girl!! little Faith. the ultrasound went great.. ten fingers, ten toes.. everything looks good.

I am always thinking of you girls and praying that we all get our dreams.
Hugs to Littles, Jens and lola. ..

Whats the word on Walshy?

Hi girls

Steph - Thats great news, you lucky girl. I hope the same good fortune and luck comes to us all. Enjoy your news---but remember to keep praying for us

Well i'm doing ok so far. Had a few tearful moments of "why me" but we have decided that now the hydro has gone we have a better chance of things working as there is no toxin around. We always knew this ivf lark would take a few attempts. Am feeling a bit mixed up though, want Oct to be here to get on with the cycle but feel apprehensive too as i hate the second week of the 2ww as this is when everything goes wrong. Must try to stay focused on a bfp though.

Its strange how our emotions affect us eh? Hate seeing pregnant women at the moment as it reminds me how i can't concieve naturally, which i find makes me so tearful. I also cant help feeling pangs of jealousy. Sounds like i am really evil eh ?:evil:

Anyway, the countdown is on and i'm trying to eat healthier again but i still dont like the sound of giving up my Starbucks just yet, maybe in another week

So Looopy and Littles, how are your both. I keep worrying about you both and order you to log on so we can help and comfort you both. Sending you a big hugs.

Walshy - Hows the AF going, is it safe to leave the bathroom yet? How you feeling about your cycle? You need to log on for a chat more my Ozzy mate

Camilla - what can i say, you must be on cloud 9 still, have you come down for a breather?

Well we are about to visit our new house to measure for a few essentials, am getting excited already. Only 10 days to go until we move, a least that will keep me busy and the days will fly until Oct

Big hugs all round

Love Jen x

So much news!

Camilla - congratulations to you! Hope little Annabel is doing well and you're able to post soon.

Steph - Faith! Is it like faith from Buffy? Coolio Iglesias! Glad that all is well with the gal and you

Jemla - I think what the docs decided was for the best, totally. Its like you have a clean slate now. Fresh start. So many women get lucky after the Big Op. Know what you mean about the whole preg naturally thing. It is saying goodbye to a big deal. But girlfriend, on reality avenue, we said goodbye to that a long time ago! This just puts in the full stop. It is sad but we have to be practical dude!

Little R - I am so sorry. You seem to have come to a stage where you need a big rethink about lots of things. This re evaluation can only be a good thing. You ARE more than what the last 5 years of ttc have done. You will have a child. You're young. You can afford to take a wee break from the relentless doom cycle of this bloody awful situation.

Walsh - number 3. First gal on the life raft! Did Demetrio remember to pack the tampons?? Man - I hope so! Keep us posted ma sweet.

well indeedo laydees, apologies for 10 scale crapness, life is v busy, bueno bueno. So where did I leave it? Had our inadequate heroine returned from McFertiles with the Grave News of Pinx-gate? I think so, hydro size of Turkmenistan right? OK so operation is on the 7th September. Am hoping my insurance pays for it otherwise thats 2 large out of my early retirement fund and no new spanky pants for 2 months.
So its adios fallops of satan and hello to a week off work and an ectopic busting interior smoothness never before seen in the fair land of InGerLand. It'll be like having a new uterus. Or nearly new, from Cash Converters or similar. Am scared to death of starting a new cycle. Don't really know why and haven't wanted to Oprah it out. Trying to re-tox before I have to nun it. Now exams are over and I have a life its fizzy wine a go-go! woo hooooooo!!!!
I'm prob going to cycle again Oct or Nov depende on my af.
Question: shall i ask if I can have my fallops as a memento? Too wierd?

Righto damsels, I'm off.
Take it easy, cheeseys
Love
Lola

Camilla congratulations on the birth of your beautiful little girl. I hope she is all that you dreamed of and brings you and your DH many beautiful memories.I wish you could post some pictures on here.

Speaking of pictures I have got to see the lovely Little R on MSN. She is beautiful although not a blonde like I thought she would be. Any other ladies who want to log onto MSN let us know we have been trying to catch each other (not succeeding much though).

Steph another girl in the Octoberland, I am so happy that she appears to be perfect in everyway in the ultrasound. So obedient as well showing the Dr her bits so that you knew what flavour your having. Faith as well what a beautiful name.

Lola it is nice to have you back around these parts again with your comical satire. Bring on your operation if brave Jens is anything to go by I am sure it will be a success and you'll soon be on the road to a BFP.

Little R how are you going??? You have so much going on in that head of yours. I wish sometimes we could just turn it off sometimes. I hope that you are working some stuff out and can be happy with your decisions. Oz is always open to you! Listen to the lovely ladies on here as they are always full of great advice.

Jen lucky last but never forgotten I am so gald your operation went well and that you can start cylcing again. I hope that your feeling better and can move around better So there will be three of you in the October life raft. I hope your house move goes well and your mini settles well into it's new garage. How are you coping not driving it after the operation. I bet your DH is enjoying having it to himself I hope he returns it clean for you.

As for me I go for an ultrasound and blood test on Thursday to see how the follicles are growing. My DH and I are getting excited so I hope that this cycle works. I need a boy as well seeing the other 2 are girls. Af has finally finsihed I hope all the accupuncture I have been doing will make my eggs grow lovely and strong and have hepas for later. OMG by the way I watched Grays Anatomy last night and cryed the whole episode. It was the Code Black episode. These damn drugs are making me very emotional. I even cryed for Australian Idol. They are big crocodile tears as well not just a little sook and I never cry my poor DH comes home to me bawling. Love to you all Walshy

Hey PussyCat Dolls! Dontcha wish your girlfriend.....
Oh what fun to come back to posts from Jens, Loolers and Walshy... Now where is that Little Sexy?

Jen- Mission Concentration BFP underway. Hang onto the Starbucks as long as you can sista! When asked.. deny, deny, deny. About the pang of jealousy thang.. oh how lovely normal. Even now, when a baby commercial comes on the tv, I still have the "oh shut the h*ll up" reaction.. it is so ingrained in my membrane.. know what I mean.

Lo-la-la-la- I missed your sweet luv thang. Sounds busy where you are.. I guess no stoppin the looler machine. Makin smiles and luv wherever it goes... Upcoming sugery then onto cycle. No mad scary tactics.. just breeze through, a walk in the park, a day at the beach, a moonlit stroll, a day on a raft in tropics with fruity umbrella drink.... it's either that or sydney bristow style.. you'll get it done with style, smarts, blue wig and an incredible round house kick.

Walshy- yeh, yeh.. bustin an ivf groove.. upcoming appointment will show a plethera (sp?) of follies... So, watchin a little Greys heh? I friggin LOVE that show.. the bomb da bomb episode was good. Our new season starts here in about a month.. until then I have reruns on Sundays and Thursdays to occupy my thoughts.. and keep my fill of McDreamy and so many other hot to trots. I read an interview with Ellen Pompeo and she said the upcoming season is going to be a circus of hot men.. count me in!

Littles- luvin ya, missin ya, thinkin of ya

Camilla- in poopy up to the elbows and unable to type....

Wink, Wink and a Pinch

Is this working?
Steph

[Inhale, Exhale]

Try again.

[Jen1d]

Well i ordered you bac and it worked. Great to see everyone about.

Feeling better today, a little sore but on the road to recovery. Feeling so positive about my next cycle and although i know there is a chance it wont work i am holding on to the "better chance now the tuberoos are out". Roll on Oct but Loops i completely understand how you feel, its scary too. I dream of what it would be like to get preggers naturally, life is sh*t eh. Anyway when we are all fully blooming with our bumps it will be worth it.

Went to see my new house cant wait to move in, have so many ideas but not enough money Only 9 days to go.

Walshy you made me laugh about the mini, cant drive it because its been in the garage, never mind because of the op. The rev counter packed up then the brakes need checked was mad but the garage gave us a cheque £350, for the hassle---just want my bl**dy car to work.

Am so glad to see everyone is feeling better and ready for the next stage in this hurdle. Was beginning to think you were all obout to abandon me as you've been away so long---should have known better. Ok will write again tomorrow, off to relax

Love Jen x

[Moritsha]

Hi Jen, glad you're op went well. That's great your chances have been improved. Rest and take care. What's going on with the Mini?????? Is it not brand new? The only thing I've had wrong was the coolant cap came off and the radiator overheated. Hope you get it sorted out if not tell them you want a new one! I paid my deposit on Sat for the new 1. Can't wait. Good luck with your next treatment. Paula x
