Hi everyone,

Pootle, I too was a die hard Johnny fan I was v upset when he left!! However I am a general Williams fan and also a Jenson fan (even if he doesn't join Williams). Sorry Smita, really NOT a Schuey fan at all but I will forgive you for being one!! :lol: :lol:

Sue - great news on staring stims!! I am also DR for a long time but hopefully will start stims end of Sept. As for everything to remember, don't worry I am sure you will manage :D

Everyone else hope it is all going OK, remember PMA.

As for me, I am still having slight allergic reactions to the Buserelin but not bad enough to have to change meds or anything. Just another thing to watch!

Also, a big day coming up. As you can see below I am lucky and already have a little boy (v. lucky doctor's couldn't believe it and ds was very ill when young so extremely lucky to still have him!!) and he starts pre-school on Thursday! :( As I am DRing at the moment my hormones are a bit crazy and I am looking forward to him going but also really worried that it will never be the same again, especially if we can't have another one :( Sorry, shouldn't moan, it sounds ungrateful, I do know how lucky I am but it is a big thing, we have hardly ever been seperated and now he will be at school every morning! On the positive side, I will be able to put my feet up for an hour every morning and have a bit of a rest! :)

Sorry, to go on,

Good morning everyone,

I'll be back later to catch up with you all. Just wishing you all PMA, hope your all doing fantastic. :D

I started bc pills on sat to bring on af. All going well i'll have a low enough fsh level on day2 to go ahead and start treatment on day 3. I'm estimating to start tmt again on or around the 27-29th??? Only worried now that my fsh level won't be low enough. One year of testing fsh only gave me that one month with a low enough level for them to try. So i'm crossing my fingers that it going to be low enough or even better - lower.

Back again soon,

Huggs to you all

good evening Septembies :)

Been back in school 3 days and feel shattered, wouldnt mind i havent done a thing (or very little)

AJ - Im sure you will be fine tomorrow, just think how excited DS will be to see you after school each day. And just think of all the things you can do in that time. Dont forget the bucket ful of hankies though.

Pootle - glad you are progressing well, not long now, hopefully i will be about a week behind you.

Paula - nice to see you back and glad you can start again so soon :D Hopefully your fsh will be kind to you. Let us know how it goes.

Tracci - glad af has arrived and you are feeling very positive, thats half the battle won. take care

Lisa - What a crop of follies you have got, glad your clinic are watching you closely, mine only scan at day 9.
Hopefully tomorrow will bring good news.

Debra - How are things? Are cycles are quite close arent they? Hope all is well with you.

Jay - Hope the sniffing is still going ok and you havent had many side effects.

brs888- great news, 15 eggs, way to go :shock:

Take care all and sorry to any i have missed

Love

AJ and Colleen,
I guess first day of school always tugs at your heartstrings.. seen many of my friends cry through the day and tell me they are at a loss what to do when the lil one is in school!
But they get adjusted so fast that next term, they cant wait for school day!! :lol: I guess you get used to your own time and no matter how much we love them, personal time becomes precious after a while..

brs,
Great News on the eggs!Hoping you get wonderful embies for ET!
and i guess you'll be on water to help prevent ohss..
Debra,
wishing you luck for the scan tomorrow.. Hope it goes like clockwork!
Jay,
I have heard of the malpani clinic, but again only thru the internet(their website)..Not from anyone's experience.
Am in Bangalore for treatment at Gunsheela as my parents are here and so everything is easier..No base in Bombay..
Loopy, my cycle buddy,
haven't heard from you..hope you're ok.. Wishing you lots of luck for a successful treatment this time.
Sue,how goes it now?
karron hows the sniffing?
Hope all the others are ok..
