Becky, great news! YAHOO! that's like half a year early!

Shantala, I think I remeber you too. Maybe from August/Sept thread? Is that possible??? thanks for the welcome. I love the nut house.

Hi Steph, thinking of you.

Can't really say much right now. This job is really getting in the way of my posting. I'll be checking in later, of course! Last night my DH said that I am always on line now and I don't even socailize half as much with my old friends. I treid to explain to him that they really don't understand what I am going through and that you guys do and I need the support. He said that my friends would understand. BULLS*&T. I love my friends, but they DO NOT GET IT. They are supportive and kind, but they are not living it. I nicely explained to my DH that you guys help me every day. And I am sorry that he can not understand that. I also told him that it hurt my feelings when he said that to me and I also quoted John Lennon... "Whatever gets you thru the night, it's allright, it's allright." He is usually so supportive. He just does not get it. The men can turn it off a little, but we think about it all the time, even when we pee. More later. Sorry for the rant. -chriss

I'M BAAAAAAAAACCCCCKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (if anybody is still out there)....got my favorite crap on the tellie (ridiculous talk shows), just scarffed down an m&m ice cream cookie for lunch (i intend to have another 1 or 2 depending on how the day goes!!!!) and got my best gals on my laptop!!!

Queen Beck -------- Image WOW -- talk about bringing some GREAT NEWS TO THE BOARD!!!! see, it's a good thing you got yourself back up and runnin' w/ us when you did cuz you'd be freakin' out right now if you were still trying to avoid us (for reasons FULLY understood!!) so YEAH!!! bring on the ***** AF!!! OH YEAH, and like steph said --- no more diet for you young lady!!! you're now preparing your body for TWO (or LITTER)!!!!! HAPPY DANCE FOR YOU!!!! Image

shantala --- OMG, r u serious???!!!!!! :shock: I had no idea you were an early 20-something gal!!! you really are our "baby girl" Image sorry - don't mean to sound condescending.......you are wise beyond your years young lady!!! :wink:

chriss --- i SO know what you mean about both dh and friends (no matter how close they are) just NOT GETTING IT!!!????? :roll: :roll: is something you just can't explain --- or better yet, is something you just can't possibly know how to deal with until you've been thru it yourself.... like on my way home from doc's this morning --- wanted to call my very closest bff that has been here for me EVERY step of the way --- to tell her that i found out more about my embies (more on that in a minute) while at doc's office and YEAH!!!! but as i literally was dialing the phone, was like -- she's so not gonna get this and then i'll be disappointed cuz she didn't respond other than saying "yeah"....but not really knowing why :roll: so i hung up the phone and decided to just wait til i got back here........and far as our darling dh's -- don't even get me started!!! he's leaving for work today and was all "oh that's right, what time you going to doc's today" -- -like it was just another day!! i'm HELLO A-HOLE ----- you could be a DADDY by the end of today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they just process it so much differntly than we do thats for sure!!!

steph --- i'll miss ya this afternoon/eve :-( but on a good note, should consume rest of day for ya -- making it go by quick for tomorrow's official TEST DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok right.....so i go in for my bloods and nurse was all nice and happy attitude and says -- "so, did you ever find out the quality of embies that you're carrying??" NOPE -- was so pissed at myself the day of ET cuz doc says "any other questions -- i'm all NOPE" and not like it mattered cuz the fact was -- we had 2 beauties make it to blast which meant we'd have 2 transferred back!! that's really all i cared about that moment......SO - she says they just got the paperwork from the lab (a different physical location than the clinic i go to for all my appts) and she says "you had 2 GRADE A blasts that were put back!!" on scale of a, b, c, d ---- with a being the best.......kinda brought my PMA back!!! :wink: except when she said "will call around 3:30" -- i was hoping for closer to the 2 mark! oh well....come this far....not long now!!!

Chriss, don't you worry about ranting & venting... you are right. That IS why we're here and we DO understand!!

I have had similar conversations with my DH - and he is such a good egg... he just doesn't get the mania that we face DAILY going through tmt, waiting to go thru tmt, waiting for results - it never ends. I love my friends too (the ones I physically SEE) and they are very supportive... but it's hard to be what we need when you aren't in it with us. Just makes all the diff. I know I have become an addict to this site and my DH thinks I'm nuts... but it is what keeps me from being nuts... or at least I know that I'm not the only nut - whichever!!

aargh Angie 3:30!!! did you tell her we are waiting??? Your m&m lunch sounds better than my omlett...though it really doesn't LOOK like an omlett...more like scrambled eggs. How can I be a mom and not know how to make an omlett?????

for you and Chriss both, I do have to say that while going thru this solo is hard, the nice thing is not having to deal with the other half... I have some friends I talk with about this, some more than others. But for the most part it is just you guys hearing me rant!

Oooo omlett is done I think I need me some ice cream now...though a nap would be wicked nice about now!

Steph

Aftarnooooooooooooon ........ (say it as i typed it - sounds funny like im mad or summit!!!)

Ok, so i got the ironing done - cleaned house this morning top to bottom (lucky i got my letter this afternoon, or nothing would have got done lol) and now all is left to do is the tea - but its an easy one tonight cos we having - fish and home made chips with mushy peas - piece of p*ss, so i have moreeeeeee time to spend here!!!

DD just came in from tech and i showed her my letter and she said 'does that mean ur going to start tmt sooner' i was like - duh! Yeah Tash, and she did this ....

Image

And then proceed with her news - she has been accepted in the Uni that she wanted - and the one i wanted for her too - just an hour and half away in Belfast - my turn to do this ....

Image

I really didnt want her going too far away to England or summit - She will live in student accomodation there during the week - then come home at the week ends - reads - we might see her once a month, or when she wants her washing done LOL.

She maybe 17 but she is STILL my baby (they both are!) She has been told its subject to her getting 2 A levels, so she has t knuckle down now to study!

My day just gets better - now all i need to hear is about that gigantic, huge, titanic BFP off ICSI with her grade A embies (Arc at her lol)
Wish they had told u that when they put em back for u hun, maybe this 2 ww wouldnt have been so hard for u - arc at me - of course its hard, but i think u know wot i mean?? - do i know??? - who knows!!!!

So 3.30 there would be what here????????????????? Is it soon, i dont think my nails can take much more - they are like stumps now!!

Xxxxxx

god i could SO use a nap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but yeah, give me a break already ---- as if i could even doze off!!! little too much on my mind thank-you-very-much!! i'm guessing no matter my results this afternoon -- i'm probably gonna crash HARD tonight!!!

yeah, the whole dh thing.....i ***** about him -- but i sure do love him!! (most of the time).....and just cuz he doesn't react the way i WANT him to doesn't mean he doesn't care -- just that he processes it differntly than i do!!

GOOD-GOD!!!! my damn cell phone has been ringing off the hook since i got home and that is my "reserved line" for my docs office phone call this afternoon ----- so EVERY damn time that it rings ---- -my heart skips a beat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dh calling to make sure i got there/back ok..... bff calling to check on me....sis.....UGH!!!!

Angie - can't you tell those nurses to tell the lab that you've got all your wonderful best friends in England waiting for the news. Show them this thread as evidence if you have to. But tell them to hurry up!!!!!!!

Or how about your store being buried under an avalanche of snow following a freak storm in that vicinity. They will take 2 days to clear that. How cool would THAT be??!!!!!
