Hi Girls!

Just wanted to let you know I am on the 2ww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D
PHEW!!! Our two little minibugs are safe in their new home!! We were completely on edge all day and night yesterday, we were so scared that they were not going to make it, but they did and apparently they have been dividing and cleaving very nicely!! We had to set off for the clinic without knowing and had to phone them an hour into the journey and they said it's all on!! We just cried - what a rollercoaster!!! The actual transfer took just 5 mins, which they were really pleased about so that was a relief too.... Am lying down resting as I type! So going to really take it easy now!

Hope you are all getting on ok?
Debra - 10 follies sounds great and EC TUESDAY!! That's really good news! That is so near now for you, and we'll all be rooting for you!!
DeeDee - Hope those follies keep spurting! Happy stabbing and then not long for EC for you too!
Staci - I reckon you should go shopping crazy on tiny clothes because you are so right, it's guaranteed a BFP!!!!!!!
Loopy - Good news on your scan, and good luck with the stabbing fun at the weekend!!
Dagny - Hope you are doing ok? Thinking of you buddy...

Hi to everyone else too, will catch up more soon!
PMA PMA PMA PMA PMA PMA PMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love Kel and her new minibugs! xx

What absolutely wonderful news for the weekend (for anytime really - sorry brain has disappeared :oops: ) look after those mini bugs and start thinking of what your babies will look like - positive visualisation does work and drink loads! No wine I am afraid.
Deb - wonderful news for you too - soon be joining Kel on the 2ww - at least there is Wimbledon if you like tennis. My two were put back on on World Cup Rugby final day when England did their stuff - nearly shook them out again it was so nerve wracking!

Rest of you good luck.
Dagny is not having the best of days bless her but have told her to concentrate on herself and her time with her DH and Katelyn tomorrow.
Love to all
Tracey

Dagny.. I know it must be extremely tough this weekend. It's a hugely important date for you and David to manage to get through. No one can understand unless they've been through it, so I can only say take all the time in the world but come back and join us before your treatment. We all want to share in the run-up with you.

love
Debra.

Hello Girls

I am back and feeling a bit better. Yesterday was a very emotional day but we got through it and out the other side in one piece. I am keeping my PMA in the fore front of my mind and trying not to get depressed. I had a horrid thing happen to me last week with a so called friend and I was unbelievably upset. Tracey S has helped me through it (thanks TS you are one in a million) and I am not letting her get to me any more. I am moving on and getting on with my TMT. You guys are such a support and it's great to have people like you to talk to.

So much has happened in such a short time I can't keep up.

Kel - Best of luck for your 2ww honey. It's gonna be long but we will be here to help you through it. Fingers crossed!

Loopy - I got your email thanks for thinking of me. Yes Emma has left the BB house and has had a pay off of 50k!!! Perhaps she can invest in a brain! How are your stimms going?

Debra - Follies sound like they are growing nicely. Shame your MIL is a bit non commital about your TMT. I am not telling either set of parents this time even though they keep asking. I feel bad for lying but I'm sure they will understand. Best of British for Tuesday with your EC!

Staci - How are you? When can you start your TMT?

DeeDee - Good luck for your scan tomorrow hope you get to have EC on Friday.

No news from Dana?? :? I hope she is OK.

I am still down regging and I will start stimms on the 25th!

Keep up the PMA everyone

Love Dagny xkx

Hi JCBs....hope you're all having a good weekend.

Kt + Kel - how are our 2ww'ers? feeling positive and excited I hope!

Loopy - hope you had fun at your party and were under control now that you're on stimms. I find I'm even moodier than usual, esp. quick to snap.

DeeDee - good luck for your scan tomorrow.

Staci - how are you doing? You asked about my MIL. We've no idea why she's like this but it's about everything, not just tmt. She shows zero emotion....except she's very,very affectionate with her granddaughter but seems to save it up for her. The only time she ever lets it go is if there's a wasp around! She completely lost it once whilst in my parents' garden. They had friends over and people still talk about how hysterical she became. Re. why tmt. I think I'm unique on the board, I had my tubes tied 13 years ago, had never been pg but was married to a man who didn't want kids but refused to have the big-V. I didn't want them either so it seemed the logical choice. Needless to say, I changed my mind.

Dagny - lovely to see you back, just not the same without you - even for just a day or two :) You asked about what other Q/poll to post. I was wondering if people had consulted mediums/psychics to look for answers. Bit dodgy esp. if people are religious so I'm not sure......I had my palm read in Nepal a few years ago. The guy told me I'd have 3 kids: boy, girl, boy and the best years of my life would be 37-39. The order of the children was wrong but the age thing was spot on. He also said I'd marry 'an angry man'. My then bf, standing listening, was confused - he was far from an angry man and we both knew I'd avoided men with tempers all my life. A year later all was revealed, a friend confessed she thought my new bf (now DF) always looked angry when in fact he's shy and so doesn't smile that much.

All fine here. I've just injected my Ovitrelle and am extremely excited, I almost feel sick with happy nerves. DF will be home in a couple of hours so I hope I've calmed down by then. I need to manage my expectations a bit I suspect.

Traci - I hope you read this...I might start a thread just for you...I was wondering how you were doing? you've not been the same since you had your hopes dashed and you've been so quiet since then. How are you? Is it just work/Cam/the new house??

Hugs to everyone, ¨
Debra.

Just thought I'd pop in to see how everyone is going. Dagny, wanted you to know I was thinking of you this weekend and have my fingers crossed this treatment will be a winner for you.

Good luck to you all throughout your treatment. Those on the 2ww I hope you are resting and making the most of being waited on.

Best wishes to you all.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO I am so proud of you all - you all deserve to get BFP's and I have fingers crossed. Tried to get a word in with my Oliver but he is busy stuffing down birthday cake or something with Katelyn but has faithfully promised to throw down plenty of baby dust for you all - sure they are both good shots!

Dagny - you are very welcome - always here for you - you know that!

Take care all of you and keep up the PMA
Love
Tracey

Hi Buddies!

Debra - GOOD LUCK for tomorrow!!!!!!!!!! Will be thinking of you!! And then you will be on the 2ww too!!!!! Is ET planned for Thursday? Hope it all goes really well for you...
DeeDee - Really glad you are all set for EC on Friday! Hope the week goes really fast for you, I know what you mean about wishing time away!!!
Dagny - Wow, you are nearly on those stimms now!! You are doing great, and I hope you are getting plenty of Birthday cake in today!!!
Loopy - How is the stimming going?? Hope those follies are growing nicely!! Is your EC planned for next week?
Tracey, Staci & Shellie - Thanks for keeping that June PMA going!!!!!
Kt How is your waiting game going??

Well on day 4 now, and so trying to be positive but keep thinking about stupid things like the fact I didn't lie down after the transfer, the clinic said it was fine to just go straight away, then I nearly bloody tripped over on the way out and thought great way to start! :shock: I think I am more on edge because I am waiting and hoping for preg feelings that I have felt before as I had a natural ectopic in Feb so I am already obsessing.. Need to chill out a bit!!!

Post by Bronagh »

HI all just wanted to drop in and see how it is all going have my fingers crossed for you. I still have not got any follow up appointment for my last cycle but I bet you it will be in August sometime. Am back at the acupuncturist and chinese doctor and we are goin to try 3 months of natural cycle . She has had a sucess with a women 4 years older than me that had 3 failed IVF's so I think I might as well. By the time I get around to getting my next ivf it will probably be Sept . As the clinic's lists are so long.

Anyway just wanted to wish you all luck.....stay on the roller coatser.

Hi, EC went very well this morning. Of our 10 follies, 2 were too small, 2 empty and so we've got 6. Back tomorrow to hear how they're doing.

EC was SOOOOOO much better than before. Different sedation, this time the usual pills at home then rohypnol (aka. the date rape drug). I was extremely tired anyway and actually fell asleep half way through. I saw a few of the follies being emptied but woke up an hour later...not like last time at all. I have no recollection of the 2nd half, of people leaving etc. Scary but stressfree!

Speak soon, and hugs to everyone,
Debra.
