Hi Sarah<br><br>I wondered where you had got to. Builders have a damn lot to answer to. They always run over time. I really feel for you as you do psyche yourself up every time and when you get let down it's a major drop as only we know. As you say you can get ratted at Christmas and New Year and then focus on your FET in Jan. I will be watching out for you and crossing everything for you and wish you all the luck in the world. Where are you having your treatment?<br><br>Take care Sarah, much love <br><br>Dagny xx

Hello Sarah, glad to have you back. It's so frustrating - as if we didn't have enough stress without having to deal with builders buggering things up as well. You know it'll come round quickly , it doesn't seem 2 months since our last -ves - look how quick that's gone. I know that probably doesn't help much but at least you know you can let off steam here as much as you like.<br>Take care<br>Lots of love<br>Kat xx<br>(busy planning my Christmas wedding in the Vic!!)

Thanks guys.......<br><br>feeling a bit better now(think the wine helped!!)<br><br>Dagny, I live just outside the New Forest and am having tmt at Chalybeate clinic in Southampton, soon to be called Wessex Fertility, 5 minutes from current clinic<br><br>On the +ve side, it is going to be a brand spanking new building, previously IVF unit was in a pokey part of a BUPA hospital and you had to go to NHS hospital down the road for Embryo transfer, at least next time everything will be all in the same place....also the ET waiting room & tmt room at NHS hospital was a bit minty!!! hopefully at new hospital it will be a bit more pleasant, few piccys on the wall, flowers etc!!! Never know, might even have a throne to lay on!!and George Clooney at foot of bed to insert those embies..(a girls allowed to dream eh!)<br>Lots of love and luck to everyone<br>Sarah <br>xxx

dear sarah<br>I feel the same as you,but even more pissed off as I have heard about the delay from a friend of mine who is obviously on their mailing list.As you said pshyc yourself up for Jan and then told not until Feb,just waiting for them to say march now.Anyway I am going to ring them up and complain about them not sending me anything.I did ring them a while back about my blood tests and only got a snotty old bag telling me to ring on day 1 in dec but thats another story.<br>Might see you there this time in a very new and smelling of paint clinic,we might feel like guinea pigs if we are one of the first to go through,not sure I like the idea of that.<br>Lets have a great x-mas and have a new fresh start for new year.<br>Hopefully see you there.<br>Jane<br>xxxxxx
