Hope you all had a nice weekend...I feel better. I had a fabulous day yesterday, and today I have had the odd blip. Need a drink, think I am an alcoholic - lol!!!
I know I will be fine. Do remember the day after my wedding I broke my heart for an hour! I am an emotional gal and think I got so high when we were are the top of the list and then I came back down to earth with the injections and BAM!

Souris - Hope you are ok and your sis gets in touch. Thinking of you x

Lis - Thanks for your reply. Hope you are doing ok and feeling better about things xx

Lucy - How are you? You obviously need the rest so think it is a good decision. Gald you are sticking on the boards

[NickiMark]

hiya!!!

I am still on dh' pc. Still cant get on line.

Sorry this will have to be a quicky!!!

Things not so good here at the mo, Marks Nan died y'day the funeral is next fri, I am getting stressed thinking about IVF and chasing my dr about nhs funding, I need to know whats happening, the dr did refer us but to a hosp with no sperm storage, i was mad!!!
So know the ball has to be re rolled to Cambridge which is better, I have spoken to them direct, and rea on the site that nhs funding comes from referal from GP and then theres no waiting list!! So thnk that Down regging wont happen til feb now til the very earliest, I am kinda thinking maybe March, but hey that depends on the good old NHS!!!

I am stressed at work, and totally worn out, wish i had a mate likes yours lisa who could take me to a health spa!!

sorry to be depressive tonight, but sending all you girlies lots of love.

Talking of knockbacks then bouncing back...Lisa what a hurdle you have to go through...hopfully Nuffield will have asome answers for you

Nicki you too...i hope you manange to get sperm and IVf sorted out soon. when are you hoping to go? Is it still Jan?


A big hi to Souris kate Gail and anyone else i have missed ( please excuse me my brain is fuddled and typing difficult ) x x
I was in Glasgow from friday to Monday and ended up doing too much. ( visiting too many people and burning the candle at both ends) consequntly my MS has taken a turn for the worse and i have been very sore and fatigued the last few days. ( mostly sleeping all day...well as much as a puppy will let you!!!) Just tired all the time even fell asleep at the dinner table last night...I am off back to bed now...catch ya all later

love jenxxx

[Lis]

Hiya girls - its the weekend, yeah!!

Julie I'm sorry hun I wasn't around during the week. On Monday I couldn't get onto the site, Tuesday I gt home very late then was off to London on Wednesday with work and didn't get back til 11 o'clock last night then back at work today. What a week ... and the car is on the blink so have a courtesy one. Dh mentioned that he thinks we only have this car for a couple of days so panicking now as need a car for my trip to Glasgow on Monday evening for IVF appt at the Nuffield.

Julie are you feeling better sweetie?? How's the injections going and are you still on the fresh orange?? xxx

Jen - sorry to hear your health not so good after all your catching up but I bet all the same you had a great time in Glasgow - any more news on the tmt with donor eggs?? Take care honey xxx

Nicki sorry to here about dh's Nan. I know how you feel with all the running around and chasing everyone up as I feel I have had to do that with everything over the last year since we found out about dh - it gets to the point where you don't believe anyone will help you out and if you want something done, do it yourself. But no waiting list at Cambridge - how fab is that?? Will you be using your Luis Hughes donor sperm then??

Lucy I hope you are ok and doing nice Xmas type things to fill your time and to keep up that pecker xxx

Hi to everyone else xx

Well I'm enjoying having no treatment this month - know now that I really needed it. Haven't even given the appt on Monday much thought which is very not like me. Just enjoying the build up to Christmas. Tomorrow I am meeting three of my old school friends in Glasgow and we are going for lunch and a few vinos so really looking forward to that. Only 5 sleeps til Stobo Castle

Speak soon everyone xxx

[NickiMark]

Lucy, firstly i was gonna say last night, that taking ime out from the roller coaster helps!! I sure does!! so u chill out an soon that time will come ad then the BFP will follow.

Lisa, I was just thinking, and you near Jen!! dont laugh but my Geography is bad!! I just realised your both in Scotland!!!
Hope ur cars better by Monday, Did u change the appointmnet, thought it was on 19th....Good luck!!

They do there own donor programme dont they would that mean ur donor would be scottish, that would be better wouldn't it??

You know i had thought the other day, that our sperm donor could be the same!!!

Kate Honey, are you ok, whats new with you??

Jen, I am not strating in Jan at all now, waiting for NHS funding, could be feb/Mar now!! But who knows?? Hope ur feeling better!!
Where abroad will u do the egg share??

Hi to anyone i have missed X X

I am very tired with the MS at the moment and have got no further forward in looking at clinics...stuill sortingout the wedding venue. Finally we have managed to book a place in Glasgow. Adam is meant to be sorting out the Disco while i am trying to source a wedding cake but the are so Bl**dy expensive...I can'rt eat wheat ( allergy) so i am loathed to send £300 on a cake that i can't take a bite from!!!! does that sound scroogy or what...Bah! Humbug!!! have decided to get a smaller cake and get bride and groom iced figures on it that i can keep as a momento or eat depending on how much champers i drink.

Broc is growing up big and strong . Although he is 14wks today he is already the size of a springer spaniel. We met a puppy cocker spaniel the other day. It was the same age and it was the size of Broc's head!!!! He is going to be a big dog!!!! But he is such a sweetie. he sits, stays, and gives "shake a paw" and is now wlking to heal. He is such a quick learner. Loving him to bits!!!!

anyway folks i am off now to put the roast in the oven for Adam's dinner. He has been working all weekend and will work through until next weekend...14 days on the trot...that's what happenswhen you work in the food trade i guess.!!!

Love to ya all

Hi Phoenixes

Nikki - Sorry to hear about DHs nan xx Any definate news re the funding? Hope it works out good for you. My FSH was 7.4 and am told this is "normal" and good so you will be fine. Hope your p.c. gets better quick! Will be thinking of you both on Friday xx

Lucy - How you feeling hun? Hope you still feel good about the decision to take a break. You have had a hard year with everything. x Have you spoken to your dad recently? xx

Lis - How are you? Not long now til your health break!! Bet your really excited! (Can I borrow your friend please??) - have a well deserved break and get plenty of pampering and wine!! Best of luck with your appt tomorrow. Have you got the car to get there? Let me know how you get on xx

Jen - Hope you are ok. Sounds like you have had a mad hectic week - hope you feel more rested x Less than 12 weeks to the wedding!! Wow wee! I agree totally with your comment re the cake - mention the word "wedding" and the price is doubled! Broc sounds delightful!! You take it easy this week xx

Souris - How are you? Any news from your sister? Hope you are feeling a bit brighter x

MLG - Any news on the impending birth of our leading Phoenix baby?? x

As for me I feel fine apart from being extremely tired. Exhausted in fact, with a jelly brain!!! Danger to myself and any one who nears me!! No headaches or other side effects tho! AF due tomorrow and have AF pains so hoping can ring hospital tomorrow/Tuesday and will have a better idea of when I will start stimming. If all goes to plan I hope it will be 27/28 Dec and EC on 4/5 Jan....will see.

Had a good weekend. Had works do Fri and was better than thought (co workers still clicky!!). I drove as not drinking at all. Today me and DH went to Manchester Market with brother and sis-n-law. Huge European food and drink market and gift stalls. Was fun and made me feel christmassy for the first time this year!

Hope you all had good weekend and are ready for the big man coming on Monday! Take care xxxx

[NickiMark]

I am seeing GP on 19th (tue) so will have clear picture laters.
Af came y'day and ive been feeling vry sad this w'end what with the death of marks nan and work being hectic leading up to chrimbo, I went to my dad's grave today (he died 2yrs ago) I just cried, I do miss him, and do u know what got me the most?? the words on the head stone... In loving memory of a dear dad, and brother, and all i kept thinkin was he will never know any grandchild, Anyway, pulled myself toghether now after booking to see jason Donovan!!!

Hello girlies!

Sorry I havent posted for a while... went through a little drepression phase and did not wanted to be all negative on my post!

I heard from my sis, she is not pregnant but left her b/f and is back at my mum...We all new she was not that happy with this guy, but stayed with him because of my nephew I think, who's father abandonned him...
I have not spoken to her yet, she is not a talkative person, especially when she feels bad...

Dh kids are arriving tonight ...and I really could do without... I cant believe I am saying that! we were suppose to announce my pregnancy...

For me , I have not got a clue when my next cycle will be. My doc told me that Af can take a while after D&C, and on the top of that, because I had milk, my prolactin level might be too high for a cycle in Feb... I will have to get blood work done and maybe push my cycle to march...Crap.

Ok, i stop there but it is a negative post!!

I hope everyone is well, and ready for the parties.

Take care phoenixes

Enjoy xmas, and try to enjoy your dh's kids x x

Merry xmas x x x

Hi Brave Phoenix Ladies

Souris - Don't worry about negative posts, if we a can't be ourselves here, where can we?

Nicki - Glad you seem more upbeat, keep it up.

Jen - Hope you are feeling more rested. Love the sound of your puppy, gosh I miss having one!

Julie - Hope you are feeling more rested. You'll be starting soon!!!!!

A big Hi to everyone else.

My little girl is loving it inside me and seems to have no intentions of coming out on her own! Going for check-up on Wednesday, and will be induced the next Wednesday (27th), unless of course se decides to be born before that (doubt it). I'm ok, but very tired and big and bloated, and have no comfortable position.



Almost Christmas! (hope I'm not in hospital )

Broc is going through the mad years of doggy teen-dom, and has taking to lunging himself at me with teeth in a sort of doggy ( jaws like) fashion of playing....the scrapes on my arms say otherwise. Hope the Mum in law does think Adam and i are into S&M ...
