Hi all,

this thread is moving so fast i cannot keep up with everyone. :?


jag On monday im having my baselone scan, then who knows. I was just looking through my bag of drugs and wondering about the mixing of the stimm ones. hence the replies about them, sorry if i was confusing you. It is good to see all the dates of treatment that you have put together, thanks.

Alison190- Well done on the ET, hoping you manage to take it easy over the next 2 weeks.

Sharont - enjoy the dvd's, and make the most of the chill out time, i intend to do, Poor hubby is going to be run ragged in a few weeks!!! :lol: In Liverpool it is lovely and sunny, thought i would share that with you.

Nickimark - Nice to have you back, i understand completely how you feel with the computer viruses and the frustration in not being able to share things with people who understand. the same thing happend to me after my ectopic and i nearly threw the computer at the wall, i felt that frustrated and very alone. Yo will just have to make up for lost time and be on the board even more!!! :D

Gailp - sorry to read your post, hopefully the hospital will be keeping a close eye on you and you will have a bumper crop of eggies. take care

Denise M - Hope all is going well with you.

As for me i am fine having very few side effects from the down reggin, so quite pleased. the house is still a mess (moved in last week), at least the builders have gone. We have no kitchen, only a cold water tap, and it looks like it will be this way for months :evil: , but on the positive side its a good excuse to eat out often :lol:

Sorry for the ones i have missed but could only post replies to the ones on this page, memorynot as good as it used to be.


take care everyone and lets hope August holds many BFP's in store

Love

Hello All,
Thanks for all of your good wishes. ET went fine yesterday - I spent the rest of the day lying on the sofa so didn't get a chance to post on here. The 2 embies were doing fine. By the time we got to see them one had divided and was 3 cells so it was obviously ok then. Just hope it continues to divide and burrow it's way into me.
On our previus two attempts at IVF we've had 3 great looking embies put back in and still had -ives so things can still go horribly wrong for us, but today I'm being positive that this time will be our lucky one.
Sorry to read that some of you are not having such a good time. I know how difficult it can be. Just remember that you have LOADS of support on here - it can't make things better but it can help how you feel.
Well, into the 2ww now so lots of frustrating time ahead.

Take care all and don't forget the PMA :D

Love
Debbie

Hi all,

I am really behind on reading posts so will need to do some catching up. I have no idea where anyone is at right now and there are so many of us that it adds to my confusion!

I had a scan on Friday (doing a medicated FET) and everything looked like it was moving along ok so I'll go in for another one next Fri. and, at that time, they will let me know when ET will be. This cycle seems to be dragging by so slowly. I feel like I've been taking Lupron and popping pills forever and just can't wait to be done with it.

I hope everyone else is doing ok and having a nice weekend.

HI Amithis.

I know what u mean, Ive been away for a wk, due to a virus on my pc and so much happens during that time. It's crazy!!!

Glad that u had good news from ur last scan. My 1st scan is tomorrow!!!

just had a few tears, I always do. It's so emotional isn't it? Crying about nothing really. Just crying!!

Good to see you back Nicola :D I go in for EC monday then hopefully they freeze lots of little embies and then we will have to go for a FET in a couple of months. Everything is really swollen at the moment and it depends on how long my body takes to recover as to when the clinic will let me do the FET, but they hope a couple of months.
Im lacking in PMA at the moment, I feel so uncomfortable at the moment. Ive been signed off work for two weeks at the moment.

Your getting close Nicola :D Sending baby dust your way :D

Hope everyone is doing ok

Oh Gail. I am sorry to hear that u dont have any PMA. This isn't the news u wanted. Stay positive for the Ec though, and a couple of months will soon pass I am sure. Relax and look after yourself.

Hugs to you x x

Gail .. I'm sorry you've had this news, but just think that in a cople of months you'll be fighting fit and ready to take on board your embies in the best possible conditions ... I can well imagine how crappy and disappointed you feel, but you know it's for the best Gail .. Hope EC goes well tomorrow, then you can slowly start to feel a bit better ..

Hello Everyone!

My EC went really well, and they managed to retrieve 18 eggs :D .
By Saturday my embryologist called to say that 8 fertilised excellently, so now we're looking into 3 embies to be transferred into my womb on Monday :wink: .

Hoping everyone's coping well too :lol: :lol: :lol: ....

Love,
