Back from hell ladies! Wasn't as bad as yesterday, but it still sucked as usual. Good news though they FINALLY got our bonus checks sorted and they should be in the mail soon (I hope tomorrow)...yeh like hell I'm gonna drive and hour and half one way to go get it...I'm gonna charge the company the cost of a stamp rather than $60 for a tank of gas!

Oh and it is flippin' snowing AGAIN! I swear I'm NEVER gonna see my ground again :cry:

Chriss- oh it is good to see you again! You know where to find us when you are ready to go full force :)

Rachel- not too long to see your little one! And your shoes will fit again :) Good thing you don't live here...not flip flop wearing weather! I remember in high school one of my teachers was pregnant and "toxic" and her feet swelled sooooooo much she had to were flip flops (she was SOOOO lucky as they were banned in school haha). Well, I guess it is a good thing we lived in sunny California, cuz I think I'd have to go for slippers here instead haha

Mir- how's it hanging? Gonna be round tonite???

Hope- wakey wakey. So they have to do other tests to see if you can start stabbing yur arse??? I bet your hubby is dissappointed haha. JK. Stay away from the man flu.

Angel- how are you feeling girl???

Steph- gonna be round later too?? I saw you on yahoo this morning but I was getting ready for hell. Oh wait it still says you are idle...you there?

Mia- What have you been doing since you have been ignoring us huh??? :D

PMAPMAPMAPMA. I keep trying. I'm so scared.

Steph

Rachel: Yeah big fat feet! - yeah I'd be going barefoot!

Miracle: Cant wait till you are stimming and we can threaten you with quads!!!

How are you lovely ladies...

Chriss- Absolutely not. We could NEVER forget about you... :wink: We sure do miss you though. But I understand, it is hard to hear about bfp when you are wanting yours. It will come soon. Where are you in your cycle, are you doing IVF this month?

Peq-So glad your day in hell wasnt as bad as yesterdays. COOL, bonus checks are always a nice treat!!! Your turtle princess is stronger then you think. What time do you go for your numbers tomorrow? Do you have to go to work? Yeah, i should be around 2 nite!!

Mia Mia Mia, I just love you!!! :wink: Your quads are going to be great!!! :lol:

Didn't we get a couple of "new" girls? A new Chris, with just one s? What happened to them??

Well, it is supposed to get really bad here tonight. Lots of rain,wind and tornados!! Tomorrow our high is 60- YEA!!!! So I am going to get a shower before it starts. Be back soon.

No pukies for me - it is jsut weird though lightheaded nauseas headachy.

Stephjim: I lost weight (5lbs) after ER! but I think I have gained 2 back. I guess yall arent in the chatroom anymore?? :( man I missed it.

Peqe: yeah well it is like in the 80s here! no digging for me :) Why did you move up there????

Miracle: most of the new ppl dont last long - you know with Peqe and Angie's obsessive use of this thread :) Stay safe in that weather girl.

OK time to hit the sack! I was feeling much better by 6pm. We'll see what tomorrow brings. I am curious what kind of pgs my mom and sis had... but I cant ask them until I tell them! Still gonna wait until at least Easter.

Is that typical for anyone on here that has done IVF after ER to lose a little weight?

Morning Ladies :D

I’m at work so will try and fit in as much as i can ....
I’m crafty and have cut and paste all ur messages from the topic review into M.Word and am replying in M.Word so no one will know what I’m up to ;) This way I can take my time and not have to shut down the page each time someone passes (having IVF Infertility at the bottom of your task bar doesn’t feed well with some people lol)

Anyhow – here I am, and before I start may I take the time to apologize for not being ‘here’ as much as I’d like to be, and as much as I KNOW u want me to be (hahaha!) As for the 5000th message (where did u see that) and having a prize – I queen Beck’s have decided that the prize should be – a BFP (So whoever was or is going to be the 5000th poster – its youuuuuuuuu <points finger>) and of course the 5001 and the 4999 and the 5002, 5003 etc etc will all be granted their BFP’s – by order of the Queen!!!!! Who was it that said they could see how many postings have been made, how do we see that, cos I’ve looked and unless u all have a different screen to me – then I cant see it lol.

MIA: You lost weight after ER – wow! I wish I could have the last time, I looked like a balloon about to take off (only I was way too heavy to take off lol) So ur telling ur family at Easter time that your pg then – oh wow, how cool would that be, have u worked out what u are gonna say/do. I remember when we did IVF back in Sept 06, if it was a BFP we were gonna keep quiet until Christmas Day, as all the family gather at MIL’s house, we were going to give out Christmas cards with the pic of the scan and a little poem sort of on the lines saying – baby Douglas (my surname lol) says hello and cant wait to meet u all – shame we didn’t get to do it, I think it would have made everyone’s Christmas. I suppose u could do that too with an Easter card? Just a thought, all sitting around the table at Easter for dinner ….. Im sure u have summit great planned 

HOPE: How lucky u are to get ur AF early – im still waiting for mine (humph!) She is due tomorrow (28th) but there is no signs at all of her arriving (apart from sore boobies) I usually spot for at least 2 days before the full flow, and there no signs of that either – *****! I bet ur so excited about starting again – I wont start until day 21 of AF, so still have a while to go yet, but at least it will start the ball rolling for me when she finally gets here!

STEPH: Your numbers are looking lovely hun – im sure I told u that already lol. Hope hell isn’t treating u too badly. Im settled in much better here now thankfully, it’s a lot of work and more responsibility, and yes the hours suck – but I have managed to get my driving home to a ‘tee’ now, if I leave spot on home time (no gossiping with the girls in the office lol) then I can make it in 30/40 mins, so it not too bad! Of course, I had my first wage packet and hell – im staying put lol. Is it today u have ur first scan? Pardon me if its not, but im trying to keep up with all the BFP’s here and im losing the plot lol (not that I ever fully had it anyhow lol)

RACHEL: Thanks for the jiggy dance, but hey lady ur meant to be taking it easy lol, it wont be much longer now, I bet ur so excited – i know I would be! I suffered too from swollen feet in both my pregnancies, and as both of mine were during the hot summer, it was made 10 times worse (yes we did get hot summers – it was near on 20 years ago now lol) jeeze – 20 years!!! Gawd im old lol. Hope ur cheering on for Wales on 8th March, we playing Ireland – its DH and I’s 2nd wedding anniversary then too lol – summit to look fwd to ;)

CHRISS: Lovely to hear from u hun, im so sorry ur feeling so down. You know we are here for u, how on earth could u think we would forget about u, hell there are people in here that I still remember (and keep in touch with) from 2 years ago, so don’t u be worrying, we are all here for u hun xxx

ANGEL: Hey hun, how u feeling? When do u test, im sorry but I don’t remember – im gonna have to write all these dates down in my diary lol – just so I can keep up with my ladies. Hope ur keeping well hun and feeling better xx

ICSI: Well hello there hunnie bun – hows you? Any news/gossip u have to tell us? Any more news on the new clinic – I take it u have made up ur mind to go there, it sounds like a great place, with a lot more hope than the other one – that’s what we like to hear isn’t it!

MIRICLE: Hey lovely, how are u? How is the weather there, did it get windy and rainy, I do hate that weather – I just love the sun sun sun – im not a worpisher and don’t sunbathe too much, I just love being able to get washing and drying done and having BBQ’s and the late nights – I love the late nights when it doesn’t get dark until about 10pm – oh bliss, u can get so much more done in the summer!

STEPHJIM: Wow – u starting on Lupron already – where the hell have I been? I must have missed it. I bet ur so excited – this thread is working up a storm now – when I first started it there was hardly anyone in here doing tmt, just us lot hanging about, but now the list looks fab with all the BFP’s and the ladies having treatment, that reminds me to get that updated too ….. Anyway Steph, hope ur feeling good and raring to go and get ur BFP  xxx

SU: Hellooooo  How are things with u and ur wee bump? Could u update the list for me please, Andreak60 has started her IUI tmt and is taking the shots, her 1st scan is on Friday, if all goes well she is having the IUI done on Wednesday 5th march – I know she doesn’t come here often – but I will keep u informed as she is my best friend, but lives in Wales. She is also getting married in Nov this year (if u wanna put summit in bout that too) and guess who is her Matron of Honour – yes – me – queen Becks is gonna be a Matron lol …. Anyhow, hope u are well hun, and taking things easy xx

NIMBLE: Hey you – how u doing (said in my American Joey from Friends accent lol) u have been very quiet of late, or is it just me that’s not been here too much lately, prob my fault lol. Hope u are well, sending love n hugs for u and ur wee one ;)

SHANTALA: How are u youg lady – I say young lady cos ur a wee pup here – the youngest I think (oh to be young again lol) how u doing? I commented on ur nursery pics on FB, I had to call DH in to see everything u have stacked in the babies wardrobe – it is fab – im so pleased for u hun – I hope I get to that stage too, it gave me goose pimples  xx

Hello to anyone I have missed – im crap and im sorry xxxx

Well, as for me ladies, not much to report apart from no signs of AF yet – I still have a terrible headache  it making me feel sick at times too, I even had a funny turn yesterday, went all shaky, it almost felt like a panic attack! WTF was all that about????? I was shattered after it and was in bed last night at 9pm – slept like a log, but got up again with a poxy headache  I wish AF would get here so I can put that behind me and start the ball rolling – I hate waiting on things, I want her here NOW – guaranteed this mth she be bloody late!!! (and all for the wrong reasons!!!)

Think that’s about it for now my lovelies, I think its enough there to keep u all going for a wee while – speaky soon, love to u all

Steph:

I think that maybe some people lose a little weight cos its all the fluid inside the follies have been emptied - i dont remember losing weight when i had IVF and ER - but i wasnt in the mood to get on scales and worry about it lol .... maybe this time i will :wink: I know that if u put on (substanciouly) (Spelling!!!!!!) then u need to keep an eye on it as it could be a sign of OHSS

I know that doesnt help any, but hell i tried :lol:

Yes we got a lot of bad weather and apparently we had a lot of wind but I never saw any of it. I happen to be either behind it or ahead of it driving around and of course we had the kids yesterday so we had to hull up in a Long horn and Walmart for a couple of hours, but the kids got a couple of swimsuits out of the deal. I left the house at like 11a yesterday and got home like at 720p and the garbage cans and the lids were all over the yard and the plastic lights from my walkway were laying lit up in different places of the yard so the wind must have been bad.

Oh and I don;t usually have my garbage cans in my yard, I had just forgot to bring them in Monday night.

Steph were are you? You should have those numbers now. Let's see that big 1500 ok we will settle for 1200 but it will be big.

Miracle i forgot where is it that yo ulive again? Were you affected by the power outages down south yesterday?

Welsh, it was great to hear from you and see such a great post. I am so excited about starting, I am just not looking forward to the weight gain. I gained from the clomid and can't get rid of it because I am stressed.

Oh well I can run with the baby in the stroller before it is all over right?
