Hi Jackie - wondered how you were doing. It's so frustrating when you are geared up for a certain day and then it goes back. Surely they can get to the ovary even if it has moved a bit? I am sure the other one will catch up though, mine have always put on a growth spurt in the last couple of days. Are you scanning again Monday or going straight to EC? And you're not mad, every little twinge is bound to make you think the worst, as everyone always tells me, the pains are most likely from just having lots of follicles full of nice fat juicy eggs. Keep us posted & fingers crossed you get to EC v soon<br>Lots of love<br>Kat xx

Hello all<br><br>I've had my mummy here looking after me this weekend, so this is the first chance I've had to catch up on you all! <br><br>I'm glad, even in my absence, good old Percy Pigs get a mention!! I'm going to write to M&S (Val, this is a department store here in UK, not to be confused with S&M!!) and see if they'll give me a job selling Percy Pigs across the world.<br><br>Kat - Percy Pig is grape and rasberry flavour and now the have Percy Pigs and PALS! and they are differnt flavours. The cow is cola flavour and the sheep is orange flavour - it doesn't say what the sheep and cow are called. Any ideas? If we can think of something original I'll write to M&S and suggest it and maybe the'll send us all a lifetime supply of PERCY PIGS! Hurrah.<br><br>Yes, I might have had three days away, but I'm as mad as ever!! Its this 2ww is driving me crazy....<br><br>Hayley - good luck for EC tomorrow and you too Jackie - when are you having yours?<br><br>Kat and Val - welcome to the wonderful 2ww.<br><br>How are all my other 2ww lovelies doing - Di? Sarah? July Ann (have you been naughty yet??!!) Karen? Gail?<br><br>Hope everyone is bearing up.<br><br>love nikola.xx<br><br>

Hi Wibbs, welcome to the site. They definitely sound like good symptoms if you ask me. But don't test too early!!! Keep us posted on how you're doing, is this your first cycle?<br>Lots of love<br>Kat xx

Hi Kat<br>Thanks for the reply, what's to early had et 13/09 and 2 put back one was 12 cell and one 10 cells, but as this is first time FET it means nothing to me and grade one eggs?,also asked for pink ones and 4 frozen. So nice to be able to talk to someone going thru the same.<br>Lots of Love<br>Wibbs
Hi Wibbs, I have to test 2 weeks after ET and others are usually the same. Some people have tested before this and got a -ve and then left it a couple of days and then got a positive. It's not easy but I think it's best to wait and not give yourself added stress. Hark at me - I'll be a wreck by the time I'm in my 2nd week! Sounds like you had good embryos though, so fingers crossed for a +ve.<br>Lots of love<br>Kat xx

Hi all, looks like this week will be one of those busy testing weeks. Let's hope there's loads of positives to keep me going for another week. I'm testing 3rd October and I am NOT going to do it early. in fact as it's a Friday I'll wait till I get home from work. Possibly because of being too scared of the result although I'm feeling quite positive this time round (so far)....incidentally, I read my horoscope in the waiting room before ET and it said 17th Sept was the start of my dreams come true. That was EC day, so you never know....something made me look at that magazine in particular didn't it?<br>Lots of love and very large positive vibes to everyone<br>Kat xx<br><br>

hi everyone<br>gosh there are so many of us now, its hard to keep up with it all,{maybe its cos i am irish.}<br>i am scanning again tomorrow, to see if the other side has come on and if the left ovary has flipped back up, i have to say for a fallen ovary, it sure does cause a lot of pain and nausea,<br>if all is well tomorrow then i will be EC on weds, i never thought id say this, but cos this has been drawn out so much, i am now looking forward to the 2WW.<br>kat - you really are very positive, can you send me some of this please,<br>nikola and july-ann i cant believe you 2 are testing on thursday.<br>wibbs - hi, you got a nice supply of eggs,lots of positive vibes.<br>hayley- hope all is well tomorrow for your EC,we should be testing a few days apart.<br>sarah - i cant believe your ovary went missing too. do i not read properly or what!! thought it was my age, as i am 20{twice over}, and was so upset at the clinic on friday, and they did not tell me it was as common.. did they find yours? mine is too near a blood vesell or something, so too dangerous to touch, and this is the one full of follies and giving me lots of pain. typical!!<br>and of course onto the beloved pessaries,last time i did this {last year}i only used 1 pessary. so thats the "age" theory gone out the window...<br>o.k now i am going to shut up and go and do some ironing.<br>bye to all <br>love jackieT xx<br><br> <br><br>
Hi All,<br><br>I'm still at my parents but they have both gone to work so I'm using their computer.<br><br>Feeling a bit down this morning. I know you cant read anything in to it but the last 2 days my boobs have been less sore when I wake up in the morning, although they get worse through the day. This is what has happened every other time and so I am convinced it hasn't worked (again). Apart from that, I have no symptoms of anything at all. I did have backache for a few days, but now am ok. Have had no AF type feelings at all. My forehead is, however, covered in spots so I'm definately not having the "good skin" effect from the pessaries!!<br><br>I've lost the plot on who is testing when, I know we have a lot towards the end of the week so hang in there girls!!<br><br>I'm trying to get my +ve vibes going again, but finding it difficult today. And there I was last week being so cool!!!!<br><br>Speak to you all soon.<br><br>Karen<br>xx<br><br>

Jackie-its Lesleys Ovary that went awol, not mine......<br><br>Hope everyone is ok..<br>Im having a bit of a bad couple of days, back to work today so if I can keep away from site(as if!!) it may take my mind off things. <br>Ive had niggly AF pains last couple of days & am convinced that if I was not taking pessaries then AF would arrive!! It has not worked I feel.... I dont feel sick, have not got sore boobs, nothing!!<br><br>How do you know when AF is due, my last AF finished 22/08 but then started sniffing, drugs etc & my drugs timetable from clinic said 10/09 was day 17 ....... Am so confused??<br><br>Hubby is worried about my emotinal state at mo, Im ususally really positive but am just convinced its not worked. <br>Anyway, enough of me, dont want to depress you all<br><br>Good luck everyone.<br>Sarah<br>xx<br>p.s Nikola-gonna get some Percy Pigs lunchtime!! Yummmmmyyy
Hi Sarah,<br><br>You will see from my last post that I am feeling the same as you. It must be the stage of the 2WW we are at. We have done the longest part, but still have a few days to go!!<br><br>With regards to AF pains, if you look back over the site you will see that lots of girls have pains at the start of their pregnancy, so don't worry. In fact when I did get pregnant the first thing I noticed was the worst AF pains I had ever felt!! I also had no sore boobs or anything that time, so keep your chin up.<br><br>I think that your period is due 14 days after the embies were created. That is why you generally have a test in day 15. You have to forget about your last cycle as the drugs really mess you around.<br><br>Anyway, keep scoffing those percy pigs. I haven't really been out much lately so haven't had a chance to try them yet.<br><br>Take care<br><br>Love <br><br>Karen<br>xx

Hi All,<br>Sarah and Karen - hope you are both feeling a bit more postive today. Don't be hard on yourselves though I think everone goes through days were they are convinced it hasn't worked and as a consequence feel very down.<br>July ann - have you been sniffing the test kits yet? Hope its good news on Thurs!<br>Nikola - why not write to M&S and see if they'll sponsor the site and send out Percy Pigs to all who use the site!! I reckon it should be sydney sheep and clarence cow! How's that?<br>Welcome to Wibbs - good luck.<br>Kat - good on you for being to psoitive! And not testing early!<br>Jackie - how has your scan gone - hope that naughty ovary has reappeared!<br>Di
