Wow i go out for one night and come back to so much news

Sorry have been missing. Saturday night was to much fun and i'm still suffering--my own fault though. We didnt get home until after 4, would have been 5 with the clocks changing--very naughty but everyone said i was just like my old self and then arrived Sunday---wow, couldnt get out of bed. I am just not a drinker and wont be doing that again.

So op is tomorrow, not really bothered and not worried as i will be asleep. Once they put the needle in the back of my hand then i can chill. Should be out by teatime, just depends on what number i am on the list. Just hoping they dont find any problems.

Su - (hugs) to you babe, know only to well how your feeling xxxxxx

Pequele - Congratulations, bought time we had some good news

Jen - Oh Jen, i know how hard it is but you are nearly there babe. As IM say this could be anything and probably a good thing. Remember we are all different. I didnt bleed but still got a bfn, your spotting and cramping IS something GOOD. Here if you need me babe.

Carolyn - So glad your doing fine on the patches, cant believe its going so fast and you will be pupo soon, bet to you it feels like you have been waiting for ages.

Gill - How you doing babe? What are your plans now, will you go for another cycle at IM before Xmas?

Hi to everyone, sorry will try to catch up soon but you know i'm thinking of you all. Seems to be a lot of appointments on Tue, good luck toyou all----i would rather be at Chanpneys with you Wish than on the operation table :roll:

Forgot to say, i spoke to the lady at the party who deals with the fostering and adoption. When i told her we had applied, she said "i know", as she had seen my name and address. Anyway she said there are babies and your children and after 6 months of all the paperwork then they will match us up, this can take anything from a month to a year, depends on what children are available. She said to continue the process and dont give up as the s/w try to get the older kids adopted and push for this but she said to put our foot down and go for what WE want not them. Just waiting on first visit, might be in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks for wishing me wll tomorrow
Love Jen

JenD- I'm glad to hear you had a good weekend...and isn't that extra hour lovely!!!!!! So excited for you tomorrow! Is today a day off relaxing? It is also good to hear bout the fostering and adoption program sounds promising! I know when looking at international adoption the process took over a year...usually up to 2! Depended on the country. So 6mo-1 year sounds wonderful! It will be here before you know it! But will still be passing baby dust your way!

ICSI- I've posted lots since Saturday!!! I've been going crazy hhahaha. But lets see...I POAS twice on Sat, 1 on Sun, had bloods on Sun and bloods again on Tues....saving my last POAS for that day too! I bought stock in them I'm tellin ya!

JenB- no idea on the 1st scan...they schedule it after beta is about 1000-1200...I was at 51 yesterday. If all goes well my numbers would be in that range by next Tues/Weds (just over a week from now). Don't get discouraged on the pink!!! I have heard people who have had brown or pink and got their BFP!!!! Could be implanting!!! What day do you test? Will be sending baby dust to ya!!!

Today is a boring day...grocery store and the dumps...ooooo FUN! I do get to organize my scrapbook stuff as my mom and I are off for a scrapbook weekend in Boston on Friday!! I'm also gonna have to figure out how to break the news to my parents...being single and all I have no idea how they will take it...it could be a REALLY long weekend with my mom hahaha

Angie- Are you making sure I see your post hahaha...Mad, nah, a tad kookoo...possibly!! :wink: Nope I never told my rents I was doing this, I didn't want the pressure. I think they will be excited...at least I hope they will....if not I will probably have to learn how to do home repairs completely on my own :P I plan on tellin em on Friday...before I go away with my mom for the weekend...it could be a VERY long weekend haha. I'm their only child, so I'm sure that they will be happy, plus they are used to me doing such nutter things anyways :roll:

Well what a difference a day makes. Started this morning thinking I was sitting out this month and contemplating ivf but suddenly I'm back on the iui roller coaster. I rang the clinic this afternoon as still hadn't heard back - the nurse was off but the consultant rang me back and we discussed it at length and decided to try one more iui with increased dose of menopur in the hope that I get 2 or 3 follies. If it doesn't work this time then I'll go in to discuss ivf.
I can't believe how my mood has lifted now. I hate not knowing what's going on - I need to be in control and have a plan - now I have, I feel much better. (2 good nights sleep with long lie-ins and 2 days off work prob helped too) :)
So I've just done my first injection and have 1st scan on Friday.

Steph - Good luck with talking to your parents. I hope they're better than mine about it. I talked to my parents before I first started this as I wanted their support and they seemed ok at first. But now they NEVER mention it, never ask how its going and change the subject if I bring it up. They're quite old fashioned and I think they're embarrassed but it feels like they don't care. I'm sure yours will be fine tho', it sounds like you've got a good relationship with them if you're going away with your mum. I've never been that close to mine.

OH-OH ----- I almost forgot!!!!!!!!!!! :!: Did all you gals on THAT side of the pond watch the (much-anticipated) american football game on Sunday (played in london – at some famously known field ?????????) seemed to be a “big” deal over here 8) …… so much so that they interrupted the game we were watching just so that we could see the kickoff and hear about the all the “excitement”!!! Thought of all of you…….just thought you should know!! I’m all “WONDER IF MY FRIENDS ARE WATCHING” --- dh is all “what “FRIENDS” :roll: ---- they are just your online pen-pals” ---- I’m like NOOOOOOOO – they are my FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!! He thinks I’m psycho!! :twisted: Oh well hubby --- is one of the reasons you love me like you do!! Ha, ha, ha, ha

Jenb: SO – no POAS thus far???? (not like steph!! He-he) anyway – you sound like your PMA is really holding up ---- u r a R*O*C*K*S*T*A*R!!!!!!! **** BFP….BFP….BFP****

Su: I TOLD YOU SO!!!!! (that getting RIGHT back on was going to be good for you)…… I’m tellin’ ya ---- clinic wouldn’t suggest it if they didn’t think was a good idea…….ROCK-ON GIRLFRIEND!!!! You, steph & jenb will be ringing in our new year with BFP’S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (sorry if I’ve forgotten anybody…..)

Steph: well……..we’ve already talked (ha-ha)…….still bouncing off the walls at your BFP though!! Oh how I’d LOOOOOVVVVVEEEEEE to be having that conversation w/ MY parents!!!!!

Jen1: sounds like you had a FABULOUS (and just what you needed) time out w/ your friends!! {{{{{{{{{GOOD LUCK W/ SURGERY TOMORROW --- WILL BE THINKING & PRAYING FOR YOU DEAR}}}}}}}} (and very selfishly ---- KNOWING that I’m going to have the BEST cycle buddy EVER come january!!!! --- sorry girls, jen1 pulls rank here!!! :wink: )

Gill: nice to have you back in action!! And GOOD FOR YOU on your relaxing weekend……..ahhhhhhhh – nice huh???

BECKSTER!!!!!!!!!! So lovely to see you girl!! Would love to have you BACK IN ACTION!! Hope all is well………..and you may be “gone” --- but certainly not FORGOTTEN!! you jump back in whenever your little heart desires!

Wishful: I KNOW --- RIGHT!!!! Is what I absolutely LOVE about this thread --- NEVER a dull moment!!! When I first landed here --- I was so overwhelmed….. but was up and runnin in no time!! And the FAB gals out here welcomed me w/ OPEN ARMS!!!!!!!!! Sounds like you’ve got your head on straight and who knows – maybe you’ll decide you’re ready to cycle again come January --- w/ me and jen1!!! Now THAT would be a hoot!!

CarolynB: can’t believe how quickly you seem to be trucking right along!!! AF and patches…..w/ scan on Friday???/ WOW……must admit, in this moment – am back to wishing away time!!! (in envy of where you are in YOUR cycle!!!) keep us posted…

Well ladies – as always…….it HAS been a pleasure!! I’ll be back……but must run as I just noticed the time!! MUCH LOVE TO ALL!!! Hello to everyone I’ve missed…….

*** UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN!!!! *****
