Hi Ladies,

SS, Congratulation. I can't wait to read about your shopping for the baby... or babies :D

Janice, Im so sorry about your knee. You did a great job on losing weight n i know you will be okay for the rest. Good Luck on stims, I cant wait to see another BFP coming from you.

Auntie, I was thinking of you a lot on my trip. Then I bought Gilmore Girl DVD series from Season 3 and Season 5. I remembered you liked it. I got a very good bargain, only spent about $8 (don’t ask :oops: ) for all of them. But I left them all to my cousin because when I watched them I realized that the series was so good. I wanted to enjoy them in special occasion. So I let my cousin enjoy all of them. But, I have Grey Anatomy season 1-2. I will start to watch next week. I always love America Series, but our local TV always put the show up to 10pm :(

Hi to everyone else...

Luv, Jemma

Hi Jemima, Thanks for the support. This is the greatest group. I never had a BFP, but am certainly hoping to this time around. I'm keeping the faith. :-)

Rachel, sorry to hear you're having such a rough time. Watch those bills, they can be tricky, and you could end up paying more than once for something. There's so much to pay for with IVF. You have to be really careful.

hey ladies

charlie - fantastic news on your FET!!! oohh, how exciting!! bring on that BFP on the 10th!!!

lara - good luck for your open eve tonight!!! let us know how you get on!! and sorry to hear you're having trouble with your bills...hope they get it sorted rather quickly!! :evil:

my2 - where is the b***h???? :evil: :evil: :evil:

ss - thinking of you honey!!! i'm sure your numbers will be fine. i know they're not exactly doubling at the moment but they're not far from doubling. hoping your beta will be nice and strong tomorrow. will keep everything crossed for you for tomorrow honey!!!

bwhd - hey hun!! great to hear from you. omg, i'm so sorry about your knee!!! i really hope they get it sorted. i would be the same than you and get it done after the IVF (i cant bear any delays either) but will it be ok to have an op if your preggers???

jem - thanks for popping in honey!! what is your next step now so i can update the list?? sorry if you've already mentioned it and ive missed it!!

hi to everyone else....well as for me, the clinic finally called me back yesterday and we're going for another fresh cycle with my may AF, so will start downregging in june. i asked them if the chances go up or down with subsequent cycles and she said they stay the same at this point. they gave us a 40% chance for our first cycle so she reckons the same. she couldnt give me any answers as to what went wrong but then i knew she wouldnt be able to. i know that unfortunatly its just a luck-game sometimes. she said i had textbook embryos put back in (2 top quality 8 cell embies) so it was then just down to nature. i did ask her whether there is anything we can do about our number of mature eggs (we had 15 eggs but only 5 were mature) and she said they dont suggest upping my dose of stimms as i had enough follies as it was (and they dont want to overstimulate me) but they'll probably just leave me for an extra day or 2....so it all sounds fairly good. on the one hand i was hoping they'd have other plans but then again i'm pleased that they did everything right this time and that it was just bad luck....know what i mean??

anyway, so we're going again in june!!!!!!! wooooohooooooo!!!!!!!!! we need to sort a second mortgage out to pay for it, which wont come through by then so dh has suggested to put the cycle on the credit card for now so we could start asap again and then pay the credit card off with the second mortgage.....bless him!!

thats it for me...i do feel better now we have a plan again!!

Shantala, No, if I get pregnant I will wait till later to have the surgery.

Great News to hear that you're going again in June. You guys did nothing wrong, and everything right. It is definitely a luck of the draw. Unfortunately, odds are against IVF being successful in general. The more you try the better your chances just by odds. You'll do great. Keep the faith and keep doing what you're doing! You had a great cycle, luck just sucks sometimes! Just ask me.... I'm on number 5. :-) This will be my last shot, as If it doesn't work this time, I think my luck has really just run dry. Plus..... I'm 40 EEK!!!!

Shantala...So glad to hear you have a plan, it really does help. Good luck sweetie!

Susette...praying hard for you doubling numbers tomorrow. Just remember my 3rd beta didn't quite double and look at me with twins!

Janice...you poor thing! I can't believe you tore your ACL. OUCH! You said you jumped up and down when you saw my post, don't be hurting yourself more please! : :) . And what's with that 40 comment, I'm an old bat and I did it, so can you sweetie! A friend of a friend just gave birth last night to a baby girl and she's 45! Keep the faith!

My.. I can't believe that AF hasn't shown for you. She is on quite the sabbatical.

Aunty... have you heard anything back from the grant a wish website?

As for me...nothing fits. Not going to be easy keeping this a secret at work for the next 3.5 weeks. People are going to think I'm just putting on lots of weight. I'm actually thinking of telling my boss next week. I'm too uncomfortable in my clothes and need to let it 'hang out'. Feeling pretty good and going for my next u/s on Friday.

I check in on you ladies often and pray for all of you that you can fulfill your dreams!

hugs,
Ange

ANGE: Great to hear from you dear. Sorry I don't feel sorry for your clothes not fitting. hee ehee :-) As for the 40 comment. You're what kept me going. I was so happy to see a fellow oldie get a BFN. hee ehhee It just shows ya it is definitely possible. And twins at that. I hope to be following in your footsteps soon. Take it easy, and let it all hang out. You certainly deserve it after what you went through to get there. If anyone says anthing, just send them my way. :twisted:
