I would just like to say if i was you I would ask. Surely it's best to make sure your health in 100% first I know what u mean about having a cycle delayed but surely in the long run it'll be better.

Doctors know best please think about it but I do think u should see one.

How are you other wise? General health all ok?

Have to searched this subject on the net parhaps you could find out more and put your mind at rest.

Let us know how u o dear x xx hugs x xx

Healthy as a horse. I eat well and exercise daily. Mind you, I put on weight with being pg, and tmt that hasn't come off yet.

I drink lots of water, I'm not really a drinker(though I confess to a beer once in awhile on those really hot days). For the most part I'm a non- smoker, though I will socially smoke occassionally.

I think there may be some pg. hormone left in me. Lately smells are bugging me again.

Maybe I'll call and ask my dr. Don't really want to go in though. This has happened before and it was never anything serious.

Thanks for caring though, ladies.

Denise, Not sure if u have something similar over there, but here in the UK we have nhs direct a phone line set up for questions that a qualified nurse/doctor can answer for you.

Go to nhsdirect.co.uk maybe you might find an answer there.

May u have something similar you could call. All the best dear x x

Hello All,
Denise - I hope that you are ok. Did you get yourself checked out? I too would be worried about anything delaying things, but it won't necessarily do that. On my last cycle I had a bad shoulder which I got checked out. It turned out to be flu and I also had a urine infection. I was put on really strong antibiotics and was really worried that the cycle would be stopped but the clinic weren't at all worried. They told me to take the antibiotics and not to worry. In the end they got 6 eggs (the same as the last cycle) and 4 fertilized and I had 3 above average embies put back. Unfortunately I had a -ive result but I don't think that was anything to do with the infection. I was really glad that I saw my doctor when I did and if I had any health worried during this cycle I'd do the same.

Nothing much happening with me. I'm fed up of sniffing now - bored with this part and want to just get to a week on Monday when I have my baseline scan. I am REALLY tired but that is usual for me during the tmt.

Hope everyone else if fine and keeping up with the PMA.

Take care

Love
Debbie

Hi Everyone
I hope all of those who have started sniffing are doing ok and not getting too many symptoms.I hope everyone else is not getting too impatient waiting.

I am glad that I had my treatment delayed this month otherwise I would have been caught up in the horrible things that happened in London yesterday. My heart goes out to all those who weren't so lucky.

Denise
Did you get checked out? if something needs treating it is better to get it done now rather than when you have your BFP! because drugs that you can use are limited and may affect your baby.

Have a good weekend

Good to see you around - hope you are ok. Do you know when you will start, or are you waiting for another test?

Big hugs

Little P

Hi Little P
How are you? still having tests? When is your scan?
I am waiting until the end of the month to see if my levels sre OK. I think DH is more upset than me about the delay.Although I want another baby I really dont want to go through the whole IVF thing and the dreaded 2ww again.Last time DH forgot I it was test day and didn't phone to see how it went!!so I know he doesn't go through as much as me!!!!

Hey guys.

Not checked out yet, but I will call the dr. Seems to have cleared itself up for now, so I'm not as worried.

Tmt coming soon gals, the long wait is almost done.

Ellie

Had another blood test today and they are very happy with the results - first scan is now confirmed for Tuesday morning.

Eek, this is it - I am so excited and so nervous at the same time. In fact we both are.

My tummy is very swollen at the moment, I honestly have a little bump to be proud of - I wonder if all that water is just swishing around

I shall keep my fingers crossed that your levels are brilliant at the next check and you get the go ahead. I know what you mean about going through it all again, but we're here for you.

Take care and big hugs

Little P

Just bringing this up to the top so our new August buddies can join too!

Hi all,

I haven't been very good about keeping up with the board for the last few months while in between treatment but I am back now. I'll be starting to downreg on July 21 for a medicated FET. If all goes well, the transfer will probably be somewhere between Aug. 16 - Aug. 22. These are the last of our frosties so I'm praying this will work but I'm not very optimistic. If not, I'll be doing one more IVF. I actually have a consultation at a new clinic July 18 to discuss that.

Where is everyone else at right now in their protocols? Could we have a little recap?

Staci

Staci ... Lovely to see you back ! It's strange but I was actually thinking about you this morning ... I heard on the news that another hurricane's heading your way today, following Guantanamo Bay ..... hope you're okay ?

Great that you're about to cycle again. I wish you all the luck in the world !!!!

Mia · Post by **Mia** » Sat Jul 09, 2005 7:28 pm

Staci,

I have not even finished reading your post, but I was so excited I had to reply! I am so happy you are giving it another go. I am now on a BCP patch, and I expect transfer will be around August 20th, so we will be on the 2WW together. Hopefully, we will be able to keep each other sane.

This is our time girl!!!!

Love, Mia

AMITHIS · Post by **AMITHIS** » Sat Jul 09, 2005 8:24 pm

Nicki,

"Staci" is fine. Thanks!

Sand,

Hello! Fortunately, this hurricane won't hit near where I live. Phew!

I actually was thinking of many of you with the horrible events of this past week. I'm guessing quite a few of you on this board may work in London? What a nightmare. My heart completely sank as I was watching the news. Having been in Manhattan on 9/11, I remember all too well the sadness, the anger at the barbarians who commit these atrocities, and difficulty just forcing oneself to continue on going into work after something like that.

Mia,

I was so happy to see your name too. What great timing! It's great that we'll be riding out the 2ww together. Are you doing a FET? If you are on a BCP patch, does that mean you're doing a medicated one this time?

I have really missed people on this board!

Guess I'll say goodbye for the moment.

Staci
