Hi guys<br><br>Sorry about the rant yesterday. bad day. feeling much better today and am even sitting here with a picture of my new nephew. thankfully have finally been given the go-ahead for the Profasi injection tonight after 4 days of coasting so ec will be on Friday am -halloween!!(at 7:00 am !!! have to get up at 4:30 to drive into London!!) thanks for all your support guys. only thing I'll have to remember tonight is NOT to sniff!! it's become such a habit now as have been sniffing for 5 weeks!!!<br><br>Lisa C- glad ec went well and good luck for tomorrow. keep us posted. <br><br>vicki - very relieved that you are still in the running. am keeping fingers crossed for you for Friday. hopefully with the increased dosage will have boosted the ovaries into production mode. <br><br>frances and Lisa P- good luck on your 2ww. <br><br>aly - hopefully we'll be on 2ww together. <br><br>traci - how's it going?<br><br>to everyone else stimming and injecting - best of luck.beckym xxx

Hi Guys<br><br>Still waiting to ovulate, hopefully tomorrow! Its really strange having to do the test every morning , brings back all the memories of previous 2ww tests. If all goes to plan and my hormones kick in FET might be Monday. <br><br>Gem - thinking of you at 10am tomorrow. Good luck, hear from you after lunch. <br><br>Beckym - have a chill out day tomorrow, drink loads of water after your EC, we might be on the 2ww together.<br><br>Lisa C - Good to see EC went ok, hope you get a good nights sleep, look forward to hearing from you after your phone call.<br><br>Vickib - Keep positive for Friday, thay wanted me to abandon as I only had 2 day 12, still went ahead and they found four. It only takes one said the embryologist!<br><br>Jules K - What a week you had on top of all the sniffing, keep positive, next Wed not to far for the baseline.<br><br>Hayley - hope all is going well, it is a rollercoaster, sometimes I get a rush of one minute hope the next despair, I find it helps to take a deep breath and focus on what we are trying to achieve. Easier said than done. Shame we are not at Barts on the same day could of had a juice & a chat.<br><br>2WW girls - Lisa, Lorraine G, Frances J, Loopylou, I'm sure there is more...sorry if I've missed you.<br><br>Good night, sweet dreams.<br>Ambar xx

Hi Lisa<br><br>King's College Hosp have told me that we can have sex as much as we feel like and abstaining is not necessary. I think you should go with what feels right for you...<br><br>Love Lorraine G
