Hi Ladies
As Jen says, a little quiet around here over the last few days. May be everyone is busy and the UK girls are making the most of the holiday weekend. Where has the sun gone??? But beats working on a Monday anyway.
Jen - hope that you get to councelling this week.

Even if it just serves to validate the talking that you have done then it will at least make you feel confident that you have all the angles cover. Sorry that the appointment has been put back and hope that you can get a new date soon. At least you are getting all the bloods done so are moving ahead
Rachel - hope that the weather was better in Somerset and that you had a good time down there with all your family. Sorry you had to come back today. Hope that weigh in tomorrow goes well. I shall be cheering you on as sure that you will pass the stone mark and is a big achievement in quite a short space of time
Gill - great that your appointment is all confirmed - not too far away either. Hope that you have a good time in Cheltenham with your sister. I love Cheltenham but mainly for the fab horse racing!!
Marsha - I did stimmies for 10 days each cycle then trigger and then ET 36 hours later. So sure that your EC will probably be this week. It really depends on the size of the follices as well as the blood levels
Danielle - Think that FET is a good idea. Your body will not have all the drugs in the system and here that it is not as rough on our bodies as a fresh cycle. Do you know where you are on the nhs list? I just looked on the internet for info about acu and then sent them questions about whether they helped with infertility and picked the one who replied quickly and seemed to know what he was talking about. It has certainly helped me relax
Becky - Totally agree. Lost it re-The Apprentice last week. All over the place. LOL. I have looked to see if repeated but not seen it so do tell me who got fired. PLEASE. Glad that they extended you for another 6 months. Money will help for sure and they must like you if they want you to stay on which is great
Charlie - did you see Grease on Saturday? I loved it. Thought that they were all good but afraid that the judges would boot out the couple who went due to their inexperience. I love watching it! Record it and watch Joseph!!!
Aunty P - hope that all is going well with your range purchase
Jackie/Nimbe - you are quiet. Hope all is well and that you are just on an ivf mini break!
Shantala - hope that you are busy having fun and not working too hard
Hugs to everyone else. Hope that you are feeling full of PMA!
Well surge came finally on Saturday. I cheated as thought that it was on its way and called clinic on Friday as could not bear the wait over 3 day weekend. They need me to go for bloods 4-6 days after surge to check if I ovulated. So can just fit in on Wednesday before I go away. I am a little stressed as some ladies seem to start straight after this blood test on down regging. Well that will just not be possible for me due to my travel for work over the next month. I hope that if all the tests are ok then I may still be able to start in June???? Who the heck knows. Trying not to let it stress me out too much and go with the flow. Dam hard for a control freak!!
Well ladies not sure whether I shall get on tomorrow. I fly to San Francisco on Wednesday. Then work there on Thursday and Friday. Need to do interviews for a US accountant for this company that I am doing some work for. Will have to review the numbers/processes whilst I am there too. Hope that it will be ok!??? Then I have some time to my self of Saturday - SHOPPING!!!!

- before I fly home overnight. Get home middle of the day Sunday.
So I shall love you and leave you. Hope that you all have a good week. Thinking of you all.
Lots of Love
Carolyn
