Only one more day to go until testing and it's going sooo slowly!
Just been speaking to a friend who said ?I shoulnd't stretch (ie reaching for things on high shelves etc). So now I'm manically thinking back whether I did or not...! Has anyone else been told anything about this?

I was just told to 'take it easy' (whatever that means), no baths and no swimming. ARGGGHH!
Been feeling really bloated and big over the last 11 days..! these propgesterone pessaries are worse than all the injections put together...!

Anyway - BEST OF LUCK to everyone! Chin Up!
There is a world beyond IVF, even though it's not always that obvious...!
Cheers,

I just wanted to wish Gem and Bina good luck for the test tomorrow. I am sure everyone has their fingers crossed for you both.

I am on day 1 of the 2ww and it is too long.

Bina, my clinic, Barts, have told me to try and do things fairly as normal, no bungie jumping. They just said don#t do anything that I may regret doing afterwards, even if it couldn't have been a cause of a negative, if you understand what I mean.

People get pregnant doing all kinds of things without realising. Howver, i know that most people on here, myself included, can't help analysing everything they do so they can try to get that positive.

I really hope its a BFP tomorrow for you both.

I think we definately need to hold each others hands through this one!!

Sorry about the christening......i know what you mean though......I was supposed to be going to one a couple of weeks back but knew it would kill me so didn't bother..... i think sometimes you need to be a little bit selfish in this fertility game....do whats right for you!!

I am as negative as ever (hope Traci doesnt see this hee hee!!) so know how you feel......but here hopin!!

Good luck girls

Traci - how are you keeping??

Love

At the risk of annoying someone, who is disappointed today:

I got a +ve!
Over the moon, can't quite believe it, has not sunk in yet properly.....so many emotions....!
And now of course worrying whether it's true, will stick around, etc, but there you go!

Gem - how did it go for you? I so thought of you when I went for the blood test this morning - so I hope you'll have good news!

Thank you so much to everyone for their supportive words and thoughts - it's kept me going over the last few weeks.

And anyone who's also going through their first IVF cycle: It can work 1st time round! (well, hope I'm not talking too soon).

Lots of baby dust going over to all!

HI all - hows everyone doing - losing track of who else is actually now on the 2 WW??!! Me Jen and Tania right?? And Sarah you are tomorrow - GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Upped my dose of progesterone yesterday - now on 3 pessaries a day as doc a bit worried about my crampy feeling yesterday

Cramps gone. Feel fine but just v TIRED - but that could just be a weeks working!! All the same symptoms as last time (sore boobs, tired etc)....but that the progesterone playing tricks with me, as it did last time . Just praying we can all hang in there until our test dates.
DH and I have already decided that if it fails we are going to treat ourselves to a BIG night out.

Anyway - keep in touch!
