Hi Girls. It's so hard to keep up. So much is going on. I have pretty much transferred full time from the Dec/Jan thread to here. I'm getting to know everyone here, and find it hard to keep up with two, so I'm all yours. I may pop in every now and again to Dec/Jan, but.... April is pretty much my home now.

Daly: Good luck with ER

Steph: I hope you're feeling a little better hon. Sounds like you're having a rough time. 10 embies is MARVELOUS. No wonder you're feeling crappy. Get lots of rest and let DH wait on you. You deserve it. Way to go girl!

JesJes: 9 Embies. WOW! Our April girls are big producers. Send me all the good vibes. I want that many too. WAY TO GO!

Anie: 14 Eggs. Ready to hatch nicely just in time for Easter. Dividing into nice little chicks! for you to take home in a few days :-) Congrats!

WELCOME EMPMTB!!!!!! April buddies are great. You'll love this group!

Charlie: How is that tww going hon. I know you're going crazy. It will be good news really soon. Just hold out a little longer. Sticky vibes your way.

Agnut: I'm doing the trigger dance for you!!!

Girls. How do you add those cute little smilies? The dancing ones, etc... I'm trying, but it's not working. Pls. help!

I got a call this morning, and have a slight bacteria infection they found during my baseline scan yesterday. EEK! Nothing major, but they want me to go on antibiotics for a few days. How grose! Sorry for tmi. No bad news about my cyst, and so far I'm on for stimming, so I guess it's ok.

All for now. Hope everyone does well.

BWHD - Glad to hear that scan went ok and infection won't put stimming back.
The smilies are from this website:

http://www.cheesebuerger.de/smilie.php? ... =froehlich

just copy and paste them into your text. If they have worked they should come up when you preview your post!

I'm like you too - I was posting on Jan thread, but apart from popping in occasionally I'm mostly over here now!
Thanks for the sticky vibes!

Hi All. Having final blood/U/C tomorrow morning. EC date to be confirmed, most likely Easter Break.

Going through a lot of emotions at the moment as my grandma passed away yesterday. :cry: Funeral is tomorrow and my tests have to be done tomorow morning as well.

Going through IVF at the moment and having death in the family is extremely difficult. As you cannot pause or take a break but have to go on with injections and testing.

In some way, Im hoping that there is a reason why Im going through IVF this month in particular. The possibility of conceiving at the same time as my grandma' soul leaving this earth might have a deeper meaning.

Hopeful - so sorry to hear about your grandma. That's always tough to go through. I'm a firm believer in "things happen for a reason" so hang in there. I hope your tests go ok tomorrow.

BWHD - I hope your infection clears up soon. Sounds like good news about your cyst.

Hi all, bored at work so thought i would check in and see how all the april buddies are doing.

Hopeful2007, I am so sorry for your loss, stay strong, I'm sure your grandma is now looking over you and will be your guardian angel over the next few weeks. Take care

Charlie78, thanks for the updated list, our group is really growing now and it's great to keep track as to where everyone is. I'm guessing my EC (if I get there) will be on Sunday 8th - bizarre egg hunt it will be for me on Easter Sunday! Sending you lots of sticky vibes my dear.

Steph, sorry to hear that your in pain, my EC last time left me fairly handicapped for a few days, I couldn't sit down without it hurting. Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery and wishing you all the best for the ET.

Jess, Anie, hope you're both recovering well - so proud of you both!! you've set a high standard for the rest of us!

Welcome to EMPMTB, the more the merrier - everyone is so lovely on this thread - I honestly don't know what I'd do without everyone.

Bigwhitehappydog - sorry to hear about the infection but it's great that it's not stopping you from proceeding, when will be your ER?

Daly, Melly, nicolamark and anyone else I missed - just sending you ladies lots of babydust for this tuesday.

As for me, I'm plodding on slowly and just looking forward to my next scan on Thursday. I'm hoping all that Follie growing stuff you've been sending (plus the ovary butt kick - thanks Charlie!) will have worked and the odds will look more favourable. fingers crossed

Love to all
