where are my pheonix friends???

It's been quite here, since Friday!!! HHope u had a great w-end!!! I am guessing we did, as no posts!!!!

My w-end was good, went to London to see brother/sister in law and our little niece!!! bless her lil heart, she's 18mths, shes' so cute!!! had a lovely time and amazing my sister in law didnt piss me off like she normally does!!! so that was good!!! Baby katie was the best thing all w-end but when we left I cried my heart out, I am so jealous of her!!!!

We did the touristy thing sunday, and had a walk out along the river, had sunday lunch, it was nice!!!

Work yesterday was a pile of crap!!!!! You know that place has been going down hill, and 4 people have left so are mega short on staff, now another girl has been signed off with stress, so now we are 5 down!!!! arghhhhhh!!!!
I dread to think what ahppens when i have time off for IVF and i do intend to take the time off, but the manager has already cleared it so that their problem!!!

I have a stinking cold now, so i am off today!!!! Parhaps i shouldnt be sitting here typing but never mind!!!!

Hope ur all well, take care!!! x xx

Hi NIKKI!!!!! Looks like we are the only ones around.....Glad you had good weekend, your neice sounds delightful! I had a hectic time - still trying to sort a new bedroom so living out of suitcases.....trying to get a new boiler sorted so been fire hunting too and I can't find anything I like!!!!!!! I really have to be in a "shopping frame of mind" and I am just not...Went out with old work friends Friday and to our friends for takeaway Saturday so need a week off now to recover! lol.

As for work....sounds a nightmare but all I can say is that it is a good job you are taking time off for treatment if it is that hectic/stressful/depressing! Need to think of yourself or you will be joining sickie number 5!


KATE - How did today go...any developments on FET? Fingas crossed for ya

Hope everyone else is A ok!!!!!!!!

Hi Girls,

Had my second scan today, all appears well. Instead of waiting until I naturally ovulate (which I did on my last 2 FET's) they have given me Ovitrelle to bring it on. I have to inject that tonight and then I go in next Tuesday for the transfer. Anyone else had to take Ovitrelle to bring on ovulation? They obviously know what they are doing but I am pretty sure I would have naturally ovulated tomorrow. Oh well, we live and learn!!

Nickie - you sound like you are having a nightmare at work - I can only send you my sympathy! I kind of know what you are going through, one of my department has now had 2 weeks off (bearing in mind its half term next week). Wouldn't be so bad if she didn't just have a cold and cough and has said that she doesn't want to be ill for her trip to Florida!!! Cheeky cow!

Lisa - how's the bedroom? Its a nightmare decorating, we did our whole house just before we had the in-laws come over from Trinidad for our wedding - complete chaos! Good luck with sorting it out!!

Hi to everyone else, hope you all had a good weekend. catch you later

Hi girlies

Nicki how did yesterday go? Did it all go to plan? Hope you managed to get some quality time with dh as well :D

Kate all the best on Tueday. Will be thinking of you xx

Julie - it can't be long til your FET now? Have you been having some ell deserved drinks or have you adopted the "my body is a temple" mantra? How's the bedroom going?

Lucy, Jen how are things with you both?

Having a very lazy day today. Have let dh take the car to work which means I can't venture far. Its a rubbish day - freezing, damp and raining so I figured I'd be better off indoors. My friend is coming over at 2pm for a coffee and a catch up. Might venute out for a brisk walk to the shops for a magazine later. Going out tonight with another 3 couples to the pub. Have already given my no alcohol excuse to one friend - told her I ate something dodgy last night and have dodgy stomach today so just driving. Luckily in Scotland there is a total ban on smoking in public places which is fantastic - if it wasn't for that I'd be going no where near a pub for the next 8 months!

Have a good weekend all xxx
