Hi Girls

Well not a good day for me - didn't go to my job interview this morning, when I woke up and went to the loo I was bleeding a bit, so did the HPT and it was NEGATIVE.... could not face going into work, no way, so rang them and told them I wouldn't be able to make it.... oh well if I miss out I miss, its only a job at the end of the day, one that I wasn't even that fussed about....

Bev - Bless you, I was thinking about you the other day, how is William doing? (it is William isn't it?) Hope you're enjoying every bit of motherhood, I will PM you and we have a ctach up. Thanks for message.! Take Care

A big thank you to all my phoenixe friends, you've all been great support to me. I will let you know what the clinic says but I think it will be neg..

On a good note my sis had a gorgeous baby boy on Tuesday evening at 7.50pm weighing 8lb 8. I went to the hospital yesterday, I took my niece and he is adorable I didn't want to put him down....

Another good thing is my mum is coming to see me in a few days, so looking forward to that..

Right going to watch a bit of telly and wait for my phone call.. aarrgghhh lets hope the test was wrong eh?

Thanks girls you're great..

Lucy - sorry to hear about your HPT being negative, but like they say its not over until the fat lady sings....and she hasn't sung yet! Here's hoping the phonecall brings good news :D As for the job, like you said it is only a job at the end of the day and if they are funny about it, then it will be their loss not yours - you deserve better. Thinking of you

Jen - gald to hear your dizzyness has improved - that must drive you nuts? Broc sounds so lovely and going for those walks along the beach sounds like heaven - I live fairly close to the sea, but I don't think it is anything like your beach!!!

Lisa - the 3D scan sounds like the way to go.I think I would definitely pay for it because like you said you may regret it if you don't! Prams are so expensive, can't believe they charge that much!! Here's hoping you get a bargain!

Souris - the adoption interview didn't sound too bad, although if they want to talk to your step kids that could be awkward. DH and I have decided that if this FET doesn't work we will go down the adoption route. I'm also step mum to 4, not all of them live in the UK tho, although my Mum and dad are not aware of all of them!! I'm sure that could prove difficult in any interviews we may have!!

Julie - has it sunk in yet? I bet you are so excited and the time will fly by!! Enjoy it :D

Nickie - how's you? If your calculations are correct and my AF behaves herself we could be cycling together again. I think I would be testing after you. How is the cyst, sounds like its a pretty normal thing to have, so hopefully it will disappear and then its all systems go for your BFP!!

Gail - hope you are ok, and the 3am feeds are not making you too tired?!!

As for me, I've gone back to acu and she is going to try and get my cycle back on track - here's hoping! We will do our last FET in July/August, depends on how relaible she is. I just want to make sure that I am off school totally for the 2WW. At the moment work is manic, I'm busy trying to apply for internal promotion - instead of being in charge of one dept. it would mean looking after 6!!!

I also found out the other day that a woman at work is pregnant (she works with DH) and she really doesn't want to be!! That was hard to take, and then the following day my hairdresser tells me she is 3mths!!! It feels like the whole world is conspiring against me!! At least I now have a holiday to look forward to, DH grandmother is 100 next March so we have booked up to fly to Trinidad as a surprise and on the way back we are going to Tobago for 4 days! Oh yes, pure bliss!! It is so much cheaper to fly to Tobago than Trinidad (they have a small plane that flies between the 2 only costs £35), we've saved £1000!!!

Anyway, now have the class form hell, so enjoy your day girls!! Nickie - will email you tomorrow x

Lucy :( so sad to see your HPT was a negative...You never know though the beta levels may not be high enough yet. Were yu bleeding a lot? You definatley did the right thing staying off work. Look after yourself and maybe stay off tomorrow too. You can always have the interview next week. You and your emotions are more important just now.
Good news about your sis. though it may be difficult for you the moment. In time you can enjoy the cuddles of a new born and baby sit for her when you can. I loved it when my sis had each of her babies. I loved the smell of them and the warm cuddles. I felt they were part of me too! Bless!It will be good to see your mum too! Big hugs to you Lucy x x

Kate-Good to hear from ya "busy Bee". I can't believe you are going for another job to look after 6 departments..wow!!! does that mean you would be teaching kids less and more people managing the depts?
Hope the acu goes well and Af gets back on line. How many frosties do youo have left? Good news about next cycle of tmt. You me and nicki will be going around the same time. :D
Fab holiday news...March next year Mmmn! What happens if your preg can you still fly at 7months? :wink:

Had a lovely walk through the forest to the sandy beach...tesco shop wasn't too busy and treated myself to some Hagan Daz.Mmmmnnn! Off to bed now for a sleep so i can last the rest of the day.

love to you all

I promise I will catch up on personals later but just wanted to let you know that my clinic confirmed the BFN. I've had a good cry... will enjoy a nice bottle of wine tonight, well deserved I think....

Feel really pissed off (excuse my language) I aren't even going to bother going down the road of 'why'???? Because nobody knows do they, my clinic are sending me out an appt to go have a chat with my consultant to decide what I want to do next... I'm not sure what’s next for me just yet, although I said this was my last cycle, I'm not sure I can give up.... but for now, I'm going to have some me time and enjoy other stuff, like my gorgeous new nephew and my adorable niece.... Jen I know what you mean I also feel like their a part of me... I love them sooooo much.

My sis rang me earlier and was very upset, she must feel awful too just having a baby and me getting a negative....

Anyway speak soon

Love to you all

Hi guys

Sorry I have been MIA but I am not feeling well, got a bald cold and I am trying to get well for next week...
I had another blood work and scan today, all is well with the follies, at least 10 good sized ones. I think I will have a last scan monday and EC should be tuesday or wednesday. I hope I will know for sure today.

My mum is here with my nephew for couple of days, it is nice not to be alone for a while!!

Sorry for no personals but feel crapy ...
Hugs to all
Special hug to Lucy

Kate, Nicki, Jen , Julie, Gail and everybody else thanks for your support
lots of Love

Hi Pheonixes...thank Crunchie it's FRIDAY!!!!

Souris
Hope you feel better soon. a cold is not much fun, never mind when your stimming. Good luck with your follie scan today...hope you have many more and a batch full of eggs for ET on Tuesday! Glad that yu have some company. It must be difficult without DH. have you heard anything from the adoption agency?


Lucy- hope you managed a good sleep last night. have you gone back to work or have you decided to have another day off??? Hugs xxx

Julie- Bet you are looking forward to the weekend for a long lie in. I remember i was knackered when i was preg. enjoy :D

Nicki- hven't booked any flights yett. have still to get tests done (HIV bloods, and vag clamydia swabs etc) up here i am sure it will take a while as there aint that many hospitals. I am seeing my GP for the first time to day to ask about all these tests. Talk about going in at the deepend!!!!!!
Will let you all know. Have found out that the scan i need is just before ET to check womb lining is ok and that has to be done here. I will also need meds of progesterone and oestrogen if i get a BFP! Haven't a clue where i will get them. Probably need to source the internet. Glad you are enjoying being out and about. Your always going to concerts not long now to george michael!!!! :D :D



Love to Kate Julie Gail Lisa and MLG. Hope you are all ready for the weekend! enjoy

Love
