Hi girls,

Many thanks for “welcoming me back” here, Jen, and updating my data. Sorry I haven’t been around just recently to support my wonderful egghead buddies. :oops:

JenBabes – Yeah!!! congrats on your lining and immune tests. All is looking really good for your trip to Barcelona. 8) Hope you enjoyed the acu today. Bet your acupuncturist was impressed with your progress. So excited for you!

BigJ – great to read your post and know you and your little ones are doing well. What fantastic news and such an inspiration. Hope you are being well looked-after. Do call in when you can and keep us posted.

Jen1 – so sad to see our first lady so unhappy at the moment. You just concentrate on yourself and the things that make you feel better. I’m glad the adoption process is progressing well for you but I’m not surprised that your heart isn’t in it at the moment. Give it some time. However you get there I’m convinced you will make a fabulous mum. Thinking of you a lot and hope the sun will shine for you again soon xxx

Kelly – hope time flies by until your scan on Wednesday. Can’t wait to read your update. How are you feeling?

Thanks for the kind words everyone. Today, on cycle day 9, my lining was 8mm. Sounds good and the clinic was pleased but it’s always been some time after day 12 when the problems start, so the meds have got to keep up the good work… My next scan is Monday… trying to stay calm.

Big hugs to Lucy, Andrea, Chriss, Rebecca and everyone else I’ve missed… Much love to everyone. Have a fab weekend! :wink:

Thanks Jen,
I, too, have been hoping we'll be 2ww buddies but haven't dared to write it. Feel like I'm on my 2ww already, looking out for all those little signs that my lining is holding out, or not. :roll: Will try and keep up my PMA, I promise...

Love to everyone

JenB, good luck and I hope you have a great trip!! Make sure you give those two freezer tots a snug, cozy place to snuggle in!!

We have 10 3day embies on ice ourselves. I'm hoping we have at least 3 tries left, but who knows with thaw rates. Glad I'm going to have company in the 2ww!! Get back safely!!

Hi girls, hope everyone is having a good week.

Kelly – how was your scan today??? Hope all is well. Looking forward to reading your news.

JenB – wishing you lots of luck for Friday and a relaxing trip.

I’m trying not to think about my next lining scan tomorrow, too scared it will be bad news again. Hoping all those meds and acu sessions are helping.

Love to everyone
