Yes it is really early but why can't I be one of those girl that test and just get a faint line. I am starting to worry. I am tired all day even though I get 9 hours sleep, I have cramps on and off all day and night, my back hurts and I have had a headache since yesterday. Also my boobs are slightly sore, but is all of this in my head or side effects to PIO or pregnancy??? I don't know but I am starting to have neg thoughts. I am testing early per my request so I guess I will know for sure on Saturday. This sucks!

It does suck! I think your symptoms are probably a combination of both. 2 more sleeps you can do it! My boobs are soooo sore and I am feeling nauseas

Hi guys
Just got back from the clinic. The nurses showed me the results of our donors scan - so far about 6 really good follicles and another 6 or so growing. They will do another scan on Sunday to see how they develop. Will know on Sunday when the donor has OPU and when we are likely to go in.
So, I have know idea about this - is this a good result? The nurse seemed very happy about it.
Thanks - hope everyone is doing well.

Mama, congratulations on your official BFP!!!! That's wonderful!!

Sonya, I have my fingers crossed for the exact same result for you tomorrow!!!

Jill, so sorry. There are really no words....

Steph, isn't that just a wonderful, unforgettable moment, seeing and hearing that little heart beat!? Congratulations on your great scan and hopefully you are also feeling well.

Stephanie, hang in there! It ain't over 'til it's over. -ive HPTs have been known to give way to positive betas so it can still happen. But of course it would be easiest just to get the line to start with :) Good luck!

Thanks to everyone who's asked after me and my little one! We've pretty much gone public with the pregnancy now - I didn't really want to as I'm still freaking out about "if I tell people then horrible things will happen" -stupid magical thinking that I'm trying to get rid of. But someone we hadn't told guessed it so we decided to just come out with it to avoid speculation and hurt feelings. Now it feels like the whole world knows and I'm a bit apprehensive - silly, I know, but I feel like this is MINE, mine, mine only. OK, maybe DH's too :lol:

hey everyone!!!!!!!!!

so, so sorry ive been MIA for SOOOO long!! i just needed a MIB ("mental IVF break" :lol: ) so i havent been able to post much. i've been reading all your posts though so i've still been lurking.

just wanted to say a big big congrats to the BFPs and i'm so sorry about the BFNs. i think ive posted on each persons thread but just in case ive missed some.

nicky - hope you're keeping up ok. whatever you decide to do you know we'll be there to back you up!

mrsb - so glad your scan went well...are you better now or still on bedrest?? it must be so amazing to have that scan picture!!

rae - i'm so with you on the whole "if you tell anyone bad things will happen" and even wondered if thats why my first cycle didnt work (coz everyone knew!!).... :lol: :lol: but we must both stop it. if things are meant to be then they will be!!! so glad you're both doing ok!!

smattison - please try and stay positive. i know thats easier said than done but we've heard so many stories on here about them. have you tested again today and will your clinic do a blood test??

nimble - i posted to you on the may/june thread!

nerms - you ok???

sorry for all those i have missed, there are still so many of you!!!.....as for me, i start a new job on monday as a team leader so very excited but also very nervous. leading my own team!! eek.....but it will be good to have something new to focus on...

i've also decided to change clinics as ive been talking to other women about their tmts and tmts by their clinic and have found that actually maybe my clinic isnt as good as they make out to be. so anyway, we're looking to go to london now. i've got an app booked for the end of may for one of them and am going to a couple of other ones for open eves. so we shall see. i am a little worried about how i'm going to juggle this with my new job as there is no way i can tell my new boss but hey, i'll cross that bridge when it comes to it!!

apart from that, no news from me....trying to natural way for the time being!! :wink: :wink:

hope everyone else is ok!!
