:lol: Hi gals

Walshy - Just sent your pm so now the photos can commence. Need everyone else to do the same then will have a face to match the name for everyone. There will be no escaping then, we will be able to track each other down one day haha.

As heartbreaking as it is, your cycle was obviously not meant to be and maybe it was for the best. Our body has a way of letting us know things are not meant to carry on and although this is so hard for you its better at an early stage that later on. My Doc told me the same thing last cycle. She felt one of the embies did attach but the body let it go as it was obviously not the strongest or best one--better early than later on. So unfair i know but hang in there 2007 WILL be your year and i'll be hear to shout from the rooftop when you deliver that little bundle of joy.

Yip the stimimng will start tomorrow and the Emlas at the ready, third ivf and still a wimp. Forgot to answer your question, ye the injections come all ready to do. We just have to prime it and then shoot. My poor dh hates doing it but i tried once and couldnt manage so he has no choice. Looks like EC will be around the week of the 30th.

So where is everyone else? Hope you've not started partying early for the weekend.
Am away to do another s/o at work so will catch up tomorrow night with my first injection update, you better all log in by then :roll: , me and Walshy are missing you. :wink:

Love Jen x

Hi Nutters!

Had a little field time, but am now back in the office... craps! Have you ever had a week where you feel someone has hit the pause button on life.. that is me this week. I feel like I have been stuck in this week for months... not that it has been a bad week... just LOOONNNGGG. I think I just need a sleep-in. But, tonight is Grey's, so yippee! tommorrow is Friday.. double yippee!! then off to Philly for my cousins wedding... have bought appropriate mu-mu to wear.. black, of course. after all, black is the slim-me-down color. Speaking of colors and dresses... does anyone watch project runway? I have to admit that "whats his pooper" did have a nice collection, but I just don't like him... very p-o'd that he won.

Jens- let the BFP trek begin!!! pom-poms flailing about, high kicks being performed (not by me of course, but have put Demetrio on the task)... sitting as crossed as possible.. not as bendy as once was... Hope you are resting now that company is gone and house is yours again! Do yuo have any "distract me plans" for the big wait? I am sure that Loolers and I could come up with a list of very fun activities for you... like immersing yourself in chocolate bath, writing a novel about 6 crazy girls and 1 beck and call boy named Demetrio, knitting worlds ugliest sweater vest.... let me know if you need a list! I want a picture!!!! send me a picture.. you got my pm with address right?

Walshy- thanks for the picture good lookin! a face with a name.. it is crazy! makes you a real person and all..... you stunner! So, have decided to wait heh? I think it is grand that you are listening to your inners.. always the best decision. Bravo! besides, with the holidays and all January will be here in 2 shakes.. Atleast I keep telling myself that! As for docs "words of wisdom"... that is the same that my doc told me.. it does not make you feel better in the slightest, because then you are so mad at the injustice of the one that was selected and stuck was not up to par... but eventually it will make you feel better! keep in mind that your body knows how to get pregnant now and that can make all the difference! Until January....

Littles- so good to see you back here luvey! still very secretive on topic of study though... what are you studying???? I think I pm'd my e-mail to everyone.. if I missed you let me know and I will do it. Have fun with mums for birthday..... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! and don't say your feelings are lame... we are the coolest chicks in Nutville.. we luv to hear about all your feelings.. good and bad, that's why we are here!

Loolers- where to buttercup? hmmm... let me guess, there has been a disaster of epic proportions and you are the expert consultant and flown directly to secret staging area to look over plans and make the final decisions of life and death... no? hmmm... maybe have decided to retreat to a spa for pampering and chocolate?? no, oh right, that's my fantasy... come back please...

Sadly not Steph but I see your vision so clearly - in it I am wearing sexy specs and my hair is shiny and bouncy as I ponce about in my HiVi....
Sorry not about mucho - work and life just really busy!
Well, most of the photos are in... just you n me now Steph....what a gorgeous bunch we are!!
Jemla - good luck tomorrow sweetbean with day uno of stimms. Your cycle seems to be going really quickly. Positive visualisations my friend - this is it for you!!!
Walsheroo - you seem more positive and strong. This will work for you, you have to keep hoping my love.
Littles - hola missie, I will not admonish you for your absence but please note We are not happy. Glad to see you are immersing yo bad self in studies. Have a fantasic time in Switzerland
Steph - surely you should be absolved of field work given your gravid state??? Am glad to see you have finally given up the high kicks and passed the spanky panted baton over to our lover Demetrio - no early labour for our girl please.

Sorry so brief ladies - I am knacked.
I have no fertility news - have all the gear waiting for El Dia Grande on 30th - bloody hell, its seems to get no nearer at all! Have acu next week
Work busy but good - still haven't sorted out my study thing, wah wah wah.
Good thing is I've been out and about a lot more, feel like I am finally getting back to how I used to be. Somehow with all the ivf I left my life somewhere.Anyhoo, lets not dwell, lets kick it up and enjoy. Off to wales this weekend - the green motherland.
man, I so hope this cycle does the trick - I really want to be a mum.

Ok shakers

Nope, not alone... I'm here! I'm here!!
Thinking of gal Jens on her first stimmy day....Lucks!

What a looker you are... whi-stle! thanks for the pic... as I don't have a digital camera... (y'all shoulda guessed that one!) ... I will have to have my sister take a pic of me with hers so I can send too.. maybe at the wedding this weekend.. you girls want a picture of me in a mu-mu, dontcha?

I have been working on a presentation all day at work and my eyes are starting to cross... this is alot more fun! Plus, I did a little shopping over my lunch break.. spent a little too much money on a little decorative sculpture type thing for the nursery... but it is so cool.. stars, all different colors.. some are even black with white polka dots (which may sound uggy, but so cute) Hubby won't say anything though as he knows I would literally bite his head off.. we have waited too long not to go a little crazy.. right girls! I know that when you all get your BFP's in the next couple of months you'll do the same. Right? Right!

Loolers- off to Wales for fancy-me-that get away! Live life now, cause in a very short time all you will be able to think about is that you are preggers! then all this crap-a-hoo will be worth it. I know what you mean about this time standing still though.. I even feel like you have been waiting forever to start... but 10 days lu-vah! then a go. Have a lovely rest away...

Walshy- where ya at?
Littles- still not sharing topic of study....? enjoy mum time.

Boot Scoot Boogie!

:lol: Steph, what you up to with that computer???

Hope your all having a good weekend. I've finally finished work and now have two days off before our team building day---feel like there is going to be drama on this one :roll:

My injections are going ok although it was a bit nippy last night, will have to relax more---and put on more emla for longer. :roll:

I feel so tired today and wonder if its all the hormones coming back now i'm on to the stimming again? Start my acu on Tuesday so will be able to relax more hopefully.

No answers about what i should be eating?? Whats the best and worse to eat after ET? Good old Zita is in the loft at the moment and i cant find it.
Thanks girls.

Loops and Steph i demand a photo this week :wink:

Thinking of you all

Sorry Jemla!
I am cheering for you - can you hear me?? Woo hooooo!!!!! Stim stim stim youngster! So when's your first scan to look at all your bootiliscious follicles then? end o the week??? dates! I need dates! so I can focus my energy properly. I know your acu person said you were stiff as a board but you seem pretty chilled to me. And its all going so quickly! It was the same last time - your cycle went like the clappers. You are going to get the best Christmas present. I know. I can feel it in the wind.

So where's everyone else then?
Steph - if you are out in the field, soldier, I am gonna whip yo bad ass! Rest chica!!! Glad you are in shopping mode now - its so exciting!!!! Have you bought a computer yet? Hmm? Hmm? and where is your photo? Same place as mine..... no time.

Donde estan Walsheroo n Littles??

Well, spot the theme, I am knackered! Yes! I am the gift that keeps on giving! Change the record lololollaaaaahhhhh. I think my body is on lock down, preparing for the war ahead. Have acu tomorrow and start (bloody finally) down rego on monday. I swear this has been the longest wait ever, man alive - god only knows how the 2ww is going to drag at this rate. Booooo!!! Rubbish!!!!! Anyhoo, lets not worry about that just yet viewers - worry brings tomorrows cloud over todays sunshine, sing it with me.

OK dudes - keep on keepin on

:lol: Thanks girls

Just feel so negative this time. Its not worked twice so why should it this time. Sorry, i know i have to get these vibes out of my head. Just keep trying to tell myself that the more attempts the more chance of a bfp also the tuberoos are gone so no Hydro hell :lol:

Oh the stress and to make things worse i had my work team building day today and all is not calm in the unit. Just needs a bit of honesty from a couple of members of staff then hey bingo, sorted--wish it was so easy. Teams eh, sometimes wish i was back to my nanny days where i only had to deal with the mum :roll:

So Loops the date is Friday for my scan at 8.45 to see how the follies are growing. I felt some movement/twinges yesterday for the first time--just wonder if the acu helped this?? Answers on a postcard please.

Girls please help with the eating plan for 2ww, i'm getting a bit concerned already.

So whats the dates for everyone else? Loops, glad you will be downregging soon, i agree its taken ages. How you feeling about starting again?

Steph - No more scares i hope? Are you still away peeing?

Walshy - Thinking of you babe, how you feeling?

Littles - Miss you, put that book down and log on for a chat.

Ok its been a stressful day, away to get dh to give me a shoulder massage--thats about all were allowed now the follies are on board :roll:

Loops and Steph - PHOTOS NOW PLEASE, i cant wait any longer :wink:

Hey Girls!!

Wow, yesterday was a long day... basically in "class" from 9a-5pm.. of course is a conference, so not really class but lectures from the experts, but all the same feels like long days of high school again.. not college.. college is 2 classes and done.. back to sleep.... am thinking of cutting early today! what the heck.. no mommy to catch me ;)

Jens- you need to chill luvey bunny. let go all thoughts of past cycles.. does not help 1 little smidgey. there are lots of people that take several tries.. this is it, this is your time! 3 times the charm.. PROMISE! I knew that Loolers and I should have made you a to do list.... keep you busy with mind numbing activities so no room for doubts to sneak a peek. This will happen!!!! I will be ultra annoying positive girl.. see the BFP! luv the bfp! tommorrow will reveal multitude of follies... you will be wondering waht you will do with all those eggies after BFP... Luck smack on the *ss!

Lo-la-la-la... hi bucket of luvey goo! Yep, my photo is same place as yours... stuck in Clever-Clever Land.... will do, will do. and No, not in field, but at cushy conference being stuffed with yummies every 2 hours... the chairs could be a bit more comfortable though and the speakers a little less boring... ah well. and YOU... starting on Monday!! I am all a fritter with excitement for you!! pom-poms doing a shake, shake, shake... mmm... a shake.. would luv a chocolate shake right now.. yes, it is 7:50am here.. but you know... will settle for bagel instead I guess. but, back to you... have fan-tab-U-lous feelings for this cycle for Loolers.. this is it. You and Jens will be preggers for winter!!!! Hoo-RAH!

Walshy- where to sweetums? back now please! give us a check-one-two..one-two-checka.

You too Littles!

am off for bagels...

:lol: Hi bunnies

Thanks Steph re diet. Just wish i could go into Starbucks but its green tea all the way for me :roll:

Anyway will trudge along to my scan tomorrow and pray for good news. Dh could not get time off his work so for the first time i have to go alone, hope everything is ok as i have no shoulder to cry on. The good news is i have felt so much going on inside today, my ovaries are working overdrive so thats a positive sign, right? Excuse me for this but i feel we can all share anything now--i also have noticed more discharge in the last 2 days like ovulation, is that what it is? seems more than i've had before. Maybe a positive sign for a bfp all this difference in cycles???????

Ok will pop bakc later and maybe more bodies will be around.
