Im hopeing for at least 8 if not 12 seeing as she has 14 follis. I am card making today to keep calm , I am now off work till 25th November YYYIIIPPPEEEEE we are going to a 40th surprise birthday party tonight and sunday MORE CARD MAKING !!!! I dont think it has been as stressfull as I emagined with 2 of us on 1 cycle and 2 clinics perhaps the yoga has helped me to be calm. I like things to be done there and then I hate waiting especially for phonecalls!!! Wendy My friend who has just had a + ivf said she had sore nipples and that is what gave her the sign other then her previuos cycles and being sick well it all sounds very promising for you girl, Gem Nearly here PMA PMA PMA

Traci - Monday at 12:00!! It's all getting so close for you now. Try and chill out till then. frances - best of luck for tomorrow! vicki- wow. 4-cell embies on day 2 - that's v good. rest up well. Lisa C - don't overdo it this weekend!! Lisa P - resist the temptation to test early!!! bel - good to see you. was thinking of you this morning watching the rugby (my dh is scottish!! we were quite hopeful up till half-time!!) It's day 5 of the 2ww for me and we will know the result this time next week. Yikes!! Today is the first day haven't felt any twinges or anything. whilst it is a relief that haven't got any more ohss symptoms (had a big splurge on protein yesterday which kicked that into touch) I know what you all mean that you worry when the twinges go away altogether!! have been watching out for any implantation spotting but nothing so-far. have any of you had any spotting on day 3-5 of 2ww? starting to get quite stir crazy being at home all the time. went for a country walk yesterday and it was great to breathe in fresh air. dh is wrapping me up in cotton wool and doesn't want me to go up to London next week cos of the threat of the flu epidemic!! I know he is right in a way that commuting in on the train you are more likely to pick up something but not sure I can stay cooped up for much longer!! hope you are all well. beckym xxx

Hello there eveyon, hope you are all keeping well. Dh and I went out last night for this birthday, a large group of us out in town and then clubbing, it really isn't the same when you're driving. One of my friends is 19weeks pregnant and so she wasn't drinking either, so not too bad. Oh well, I test on MOnday and at the moment i'm constantly 'knicker checking', my period was due yesterday but is often late. On thursday I was adamant that af was on it's way. Today not too sure, just hope I can test on monday and af doesn't arrive. I'll have t go to Boots tomorrow to buy a test - anyone know a good brand to get? Gem - how are you? hope you're keeping up the positive attitude. What time at you testing? am I right that if you do a hpt then it's best to do first thing in the morning? Lisa Ch - work know that I am having alot of appointments at hopsitial at the moment but no, I haven't told then any details and I've been quite lucky, we run a diary system and I just write in if I'm at hopsital, working form home etc. Hope you are keeping well. Beckym - glad to hear you've settled into your 2ww, hope it goes fast for you! Frances - lots and lots of luck for tomorrow, I persume you are doing a hpt, do lets us know the result. Will be thinking you you and dh. Hope everyone else is doing fine Hope you're all having a great weekend, it's nearly Pop Idol time for me now (sad, I know!!!) much love, Lisa x x

Hi Girls Well I have the worst constipation ever I feel like I have a lump of concrete in my belly, and my nipples have been sore ever since EC, but hey I don’t mind because its all going to be worth it – PMA. Traci – congrats lots of nice eggies coming your way, I know what you mean about waiting, I seemed to have spent the last month waiting for those crucial phone calls. Lisa Ch – Have a goodtime tonight and take it easy in the kitchen tomorrow. Becky – I feel cooped up already I’ve watched so many films this week DH it practically living in blockbusters. Frances - good luck for tomorrow I’ll be thinking of you. Lisa p – Found this on the net regarding HPT http://www.thebabycorner.com/preconcept ... br> Gem – Have a good weekend not long now.

Hi everyone, sorry I havn't posted for a while. Unfortunately I came down with a virus on Tuesday (day before EC!) and apart from going to the hospital have been in bed ever since. We got 6 eggs and they all fertilised - which I was a relief because I was so disappointed to only get 6. ET was today and they transferred 1 x 7 cell and 1 x 6 cell - unfortunately the others wern't any good for freezing - but I'm not going to need them - because IT IS GOING TO WORK THIS TIME!!!!!!! So much has happened since I've been away (and I apologise in advance if i miss anyone out). Hayley, the first injection is always the worst - they will be over before you know it. Vicki, glad your ET went well - take it easy for the next couple of weeks.... lucky you getting a picture - I would love to have had one to take home. Traci, sounds like everything is going well for you. Good luck for Mandy's EC on Monday. Frances, Lisa P, Gem - good luck for your tests - sending millions of +++ vibes your way. Love to everyone Dolly

Hey gals, Everyone is going along soo well in this OCB group, we have been a very sucessful group of women, I can see lots more positives to come! Becky, we watched the rugby on Saturday night, was a great game!!, all the aussie commentators just wrote the Scottish off (typical!), and kept going on about how superior the wallabies are, but it was a really great game..You guys had it all over us in the line outs, and played really hard..My grandmother is Scottish, so I feel some allegiance to both sides I have to say! Gem, thanks for your message, is great that you're on a natural FET, am a big fan, no drugs, no stress, natural cycle and all quite simple compared with the IVF saga!..Am feeling a tad queesy in the morning and around lunch time, makes Sunday morning lie in just impossible (the longer I lie there hungry, the sicker I feel)..My scan is Thursday, cannot wait..My wonderful friend Sara who has been on IVF with me had her scan on Saturday and saw a teeny heartbeat, all very lovely apparently, and why we're all on this long road I guess! Traci, how exciting!!, have everything crossed for you for and Mandi for tomorrow, will light a candle and send that PMA from Brisbane to the UK.. Dolly, welcome to the 2ww! Lisa, know about the knicker checking, my heart was truly in my mouth everytime I had to pee in that 2ww, good luck for tomorrow, lots of PMA to you, can't wait to hear your news! All the best loves, catch up soon Belinda

Hi all Not good news from me I'm afraid, woke up this morning with really bad cramp and just thought this is it. Went to loo and no sign, but know its coming my af always starts with really painful cramp. Don't think I will make it to test day. On a brighter note the Stereophonics were really good and I enjoyed it. Got a house full today that I can't put off so will grin and bare it till bed time. Also can anyone tell me how to get in the chat room if you have forgotton your password, I automatically log in for the message board and thought the same would happen. Is it working by the way Marcus is very quiet!! Good luck Frances for your test today PMA to all Love Lisa xx

Oh well hope everyone else is doing fine, Frances, any news yet??? will let you know the outcome of my test tomorrow, please pray, light candles, cross everything for us!! until then, much love Lisa x
