hi girls
hope you are all ok. there are quite a few of us doing tmt and I have lost track with what is going on. I can not even blame the drugs as i'm having di this week so no drugs needed.
jenf how are you getting on you are due for your di this week. I'm hoping to ovulate wednesday so all being well will be on the 2 week again...
well good luck to those who will be joining me..
take care

Hi Julyann/Caz
I've sort of given up posting.........bored of listening to myself going over the same crap and ending up with the same crap result...........should probably start posting on June Cycle buddies now after the enevitable happens here!!
Anyway, enough of me being self pitious.............no cerival mucas.......bloody drugs giving me another really long cycle..........doing a natural one this time and for the next one too........planning a holiday the day after insemination of my June cycle (if this one fails)...........scan today showed follie on its lonesome to be 11.5cm so a bit to go yet.......estimate Saturday???
good luck for tomorrow July ann...........just out of interest have you been drinking alcohol?? I have had one or two............next to nothing compared to this time last year..........but so fed up with my life being in pause mode I think all of these things just add to the stress.......so I thought........what harm can a glass of wine do? What harm can a bike session at the gym do?? Let me know your thoughts.......am I likely to screw it all up??
Very apathetic, don't care (do really), bored of it all!

hi sly
af means aunt flow, period
di means donor insemination.
hi caz hope you are feeling ok and not to sick, have you got a scan date booked.
jen i feel the same this will be my 7 weeker can not beleive i'm still trying. I was so good on my first tmt no smoking no drinking only eating healthy foods.I gave up work and lost two stone. I would not lift anything and did not take my lovley dogs out for walks incase the pulled me. well bfn so thought sod that..I have not gone back to work full time I just work part time from home.
now i have a few drinks when i want and the odd fag....I do not change at all on the two week only thing I do not do is have a hot bath.When i have di i go shopping and buy my self nice clothes, I would not have before just incase i get pg. I live life to the max and what will be will be.I went out with a friend and she is 6 months pg she was smoking and drinking and has from the start. I would not do that but she is so chilled out about things. I think stress really effects tmt and when you give up everything it make you focus to much on the ivf. So try and chill out and relax when you can. I will be here for you so if you get down we can pick each other up...
well catch up soon

Hi girls.
Lost my post becuase my connection cut out. Here goes again.
Jen you ask the questions I ask myself most days. I'd love a glass of wine and a bar of chocolate. What harm can a little do? Anyway as it is my first ivf tmt I am trying to do things by the book, but I did slip with the chocy. Just a bite size piece.
Why are we not supposed to have hot baths. I was told not to take hot showers. Luke warm showers just aren't the same.
Well done christina with your 5 fetilised eggs. The hospital called this morning to let me know 4 out of my 5 eggs fertilised.
What a relief!
We are over the next hurdle. I have ET tomorrow at 12.30. Good luck with your ET.

Hi Christina I notice you are online now.
How are you feeling? Are you still having cramps and discomfort?
I was fine this morning but am a bit sore again tonight.
I tried not to do anything today but rest.

I slept on and off all day. I feel real lazy. DH is just great though. He gave me breaky in bed and has been doing the house work. Bless. I don't think it will last long so I'm lapping it up while I can.
I am a bit nervous about tomorrow. I don't want to turn up for ET for them to tell me the fertilised eggs didn't make it!
I am also weary of how I am going to feel when we know if it has worked. Oh well part of the rollar coaster I guess. We cross one hurdle and worry about the next!

Hi Shellie
Don't they tell you at your clinic how many have fertilised? We had to phone today to find out. You will be fine & I will be thinking of you tomorrow aswell. Were having ET at 10.30a.m. Let me know how you go & I will let you know. Nice to have each other to talk to going through the same thing. Everyone on here has been great. DH has been very good too. Brought me shopping today, got new clothes to cheer me up & flowers. Well Shellie get a good night sleep & you will have A1 embies. Good Luck, I will pray for us all tonight.

Hi Jen - just to say - I COMPLETELY cut out booze first time and BFN and this time I had a few glasses here and there , exercised as usual (except in the 2ww when i stopped, didnt first time)- I think I even had one or two glasses of wine on the 2WW, and well this time (so far!) it worked. I think the not drinking thing is a bit of a red herring. Just relax (ha ha!!!!!) - if its gonna work its gonna work and I know it sounds awful but I really dont think theres much you can do to control it. I guess you probably knew that already
well.......I'll be waiting on the other side
Ps - re how am I - fine, bit tired , look like SHIT, no sickness or any other distinguishing preganancy symtoms - which I would actually quite appreciate now. I would certainly like the "glow" everyone talks about!!
