Gill - hope that IM can come up with some answers for you. Sounds like the embie bank might be the answer for you. Specially for you:

Image

Hang in there sweetie.

Rebecca - hope that you have been taking it really easy and looking after the little ones. Hope that after Monday that you will be able to relax a little more and not have to face further scares.

Image

JB - so nice to have you back. Missed you babe! Sounds like you are rushing around as much as me. I shall calm down but only when I get closer to ET. For now it helps me pass the time. Hope you got the e-mail of Questions and Answers. Let me know what I should have asked that I forgot!! Hope that you are enjoying the book. I found it really helpful to get my head around all the questions that were spinning around my head. So hope that you will get the e-mail this week hun

Sonia - you are very very close now. Sounds like ET is right around the corner for you. How exciting for you

Kim - how are you doing with the shots. Feel so lucky that I don't have to do any injections this time at all

Vicki - Good luck for your appointment with Mr Trew. Don't think that it is too far away for you now. Please can you let me know what happens during your trial cycle? What will they test? Just curious why I don't do that bit??? Hope that you are doing well and that you & your dh are doing better since you came back

Anna - I really liked the clinic. As you said, hard not to be impressed. They clearly have people going there from all around the world

Jen1d - Only 6 days until your transfer. By this time next week, you will be PUPO. You may have said this already but what hotel are you staying in this time???

Hugs to everyone else. Hope that you are all enjoying the weekend.

Quite sunny in London today so my dh and I just had lunch sat in the garden. Very pleasant. You'll be pleased to hear that I have a chill out weekend after all the running about although I have a busy week ahead to pass the time. The guys that I work with in our small consulting business have our summer party on Wednesday in town to celebrate the fact that we just won lots of new business. Helps with the bills and keeping me busy. Little worried that I might have to go to Dubai again in November when I might be in the midst of tmt but may be someone else can go instead of me??? Then on Thursday I am going to see my good friend who just m/c on ivf 6 (no 3 with DE for her sister). Too unfair. She is very keen to see me and talk about Spain. Her sister has done 2 fresh cycles for her and she has done one more with frosties. Now has to look at the overseas option as she will not ask her sister to go through it for her again. They have run all sort of tests and cannot seem to figure out why she m/c. If anyone knows a specialist/tests that can be run for multiple m/c then I would be very interested so I can try to help her.

Off to my trampoline as seem to have added rather than lost weight with some nice food and ice creams in Barcelona.

Lots of Love to everyone
Carolyn

8) Hi girls

Wow the sun is out, whats that all about.
Had a tough 2 days of abuse at work so glad i'm finally home.

Carolyn - Only 9 days, woohhooo bring it on :lol: Staying at Hotel Lille, looks fab and so close to the ice-cream shop :D

Gill - Thinking of you babe, glad that your thinking about a plan and you know we are here when you need us.

Jen - Patches are creaping nearer, not long now.

I am fine, got money sorted out and just need to pack. Seems strange when i look at the ticker, just seems like yesterday when we were in Barcelona. Cant wait to get my embies back, just hope they thaw ok, never had that worry before as there has never been frosties.

Just hoping the lining is mega thick and they have lots to stick to.

Ok am thinking of you all but i must go find some tea for the golfer returning then chill. Its been a tough day of abuse :shock:

hello ladies,

firstly, thanks for all my sparkles and good luck wishes - it really helps. I'm just back from the clinic and have good and bad news - the good is that both babies have grown and have strong heart beats. the bad news is that the blood clot has doubled in size and my doctor is concerned that Baby B is bleeding into the clot :( So I back on bed rest for a few days and go back on friday to make sure they'te both hanging in there. Trying to have a positive attitude but hard not to worry as I would be heart broken if the worst happened.

sorry for the lack of personals recently, teh computer makes me a little sick. I'm thinking about you all and sending love, and baby dust to all

Hi Girls

Just a quickie

Rebecca - You rest and look after those beanies they are good strong fighters, good luck for Friday my thoughts are with you.

Jen1 - well done, not long now, good luck. Hope you have a great flight and your snow babies defrost fine and get snug in your super, thick warm lining. Hmmm Brad Pitt is just so yummy.

Jen b - Welcome back glad you had good time and that naughty bleeding has stayed away.

Carolyn - My trial cycle is the same as preparing for transfer I take Progynova for about 18 days then onto cyclogest pessaries, just to make sure I respond well to drugs and my lining thickness is OK ready for transfer of Dora and Diego.

Love to everyone else, must fly.

:lol: Hi

ARRRRRrrrrhhhhh 2 days, well not even that until we go.

Got this from IM this morning

Come on the morning of the embryo transfer between 9-9:30 am and we'll perform a Doppler scan.
If all is okay we 'll do the transfer a few hours later. We'll contact the labs and defrost 2 embryos at a time and we'll transfer only 2 if both survive the thawing ( 70 % embryos survive).
If 1 doesn't survive then we'll defrost the remaining 2 and transfer all three.
Remind the doctor during the Doppler study about the diazepam and we'll supply you with a tablet (either 5 or 10mg) which you can take 1/2 -1 hour before. (This is to help relax me as ET was painful last time)


Dont know what to do about acu yet as we dont want to be rushing around in the morning, might just have it after ET???

Vicki - Glad you enjoyed Brad, oh hs is so yummy eh.

Gill - Hope your ok, thinking of you

Carolyn - Not working to hard i hope

JenB - One day nearer that patch box

Rebecca - Hope you feeling ok today and trying not to worryy to much

Hi to everyone else. Away to work then got a study day with the tutor tomorrow the Big B here we come.
