Hi Girls,
So much has happened with everyone...
Souris, I am SO sorry to hear your news. I feel for you. I totally get that need to be pregnant and have that experience, as I'm sure most women on this thread do. Like others suggested, take some time away from all this, heal from this devestation, and you never know, your hubby might change his mind. In the meantime, know that we're all thinking of you. Much love.
Sophie, I posted elsewhere, but good luck with ET. That's great news that they all defrosted.
Jen - WOW!!! Congratulations! How are you feeling? Are you overwhelmed yet with all this good news? Enjoy this time! We're all so happy for you. Keep us posted about your progress.
Cla-CONGRATULATIONS!!! I laughed when I read what the nurses said. Is there more than one way to pee on a stick? J/K! Good luck on your scan next week.
As for me, the 2ww is Ok so far. Mostly b/c I've been busy at work. But, now I have three days off. Eek. I need to find something to do to keep my mind off of my test. I'm trying to be really relaxed about things, not analyzing every twinge... but it's REALLY hard not to!

Souris - so sorry to read your news, take good care of yourself. We never know in which way life will lead us, wishing you all the best whatever you decide.

Sophie - Good luck with ET and the 2ww

Jen - Congratulations on your double bump!!!! I am so pleased for you both.

Cla - Congratulations, at least you shouldnt need to do any pee sticks for a while. Enjoy the next 9 months

Kelly - Hope you get that longed for BFP, keep up the PMA, not long now

Well i could well be on for my FET next week, LH surge did not arrive wed, thur or today :D , it must of been listening when i gave it a good talking to. So now got 4 days for it to arrive or i will have to wait for next month (clinics timeframes are so annoying).

Good luck all

love

Hi guys,

THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH for your kind words. I cant tell you enough how important you are to me. :P :P :P

Jen, twins, once again congrats!!

Sandra, thanks for the advice, I have read zita west, but i will never get Dh to be healthy!! Already trying a kind of diet healthy food and it's HARD! so i am not even prepared to talk about the ciggies!!

Kelly, good luck and i hope the 2ww are going smoothly for you

Cla, congrats on your BFP!!!

Sophie, well done with the 4 embies, thats great news!!

Sue, finger crossed for your FET to happen next week!

Anna, Tracii, Lynne, Jackie, Macca and all above, thanks for being here for me.

I dont want to say nothing yet , as nothing is certain, But i might be back on here sooner than later. It's not sure yet, i have decided not to tell anyone (my sis was so disappointed...). I hope it will work out, i will let you know on time. All i can say is that i have an incredible Dh, who must love me more than anything. After all he has been through, all he wants is making me happy.

I will be checking on you guys, hoping to see many more BFP!!

Take care
souris will be back!

Souris - I am so sorry that it didn't work out the way you and DH intended. It is such a hard process...so many ups and downs.

My DH is also older then me (12 years)..and it is very hard to change his diet..he has gotten better but..... so I bought Proxeed for DH and I am convinced that this helped me get naturally pregnant in Sept/Oct..along with some other things but I really think this helped his swimmers :D

I want to wish you the very best in life's journey and hope to see you here soon :D

Hi all,

My scan went better than planned today. It looks like I have 7 now and another possible 2. I was so worried as I have been feeling nothing at all. No side effects, no cramps, no bloating, nothing so I assumed nothing is going on. EC is now for Tuesday and ET on Thursday (subject to fertilisation). DH is going to take most of next week off work to pamper me, bless him! I even wore an orange top, orange underwear and orange socks to scan today. Apparently it is good luck colour for fertility (according to Zita West book). Blue is also good for the second 2WW so I will be trying that too. I know, I am sad!!!! :oops:

Anna, Thanks for the follie encouragement. It worked!!!! Weh hey!! :D I'm doing a jig now for your AF.. It will work, I'm Irish (from Dublin) and I have the luck and the 4 leaf clover, not to mention the irish jig.

Hi All,
Anna, thanks for asking after me. This TWW is a killer, but I think it is harder on DH. He's not sleeping and when he woke me this morning his first words where "Any discharge?"- not very romantic I know, but he is really concerned...ah. He has turned into a real Cinderella and I've done NOTHING since EC.
I've been having dark brown discharge since Thursday, but I don't test until 17th. I'm trying to look on it as a positive sign, but it's really hard not to obsess.
Souris, I'm so glad DH has changed his mind. Good Luck.
Cla, Jen, how's it going?

To everyone else- Baby Dust in sackfulls.

Hi girlies, i see everyone has been busy, i have just managed to get up out of bed, but im still really sore, i do hope it settles for ET tomorrow,
We had EC on friday, and i have to be honest, it was horrible, i dont mean to scare anyone who is still awaiting ec but it was scarey, although i am a bit of a wimp, they gave me two lots of sedation and two lots of pain kiler, without much effect, as it did not take affect until they wheeled me out, i was screaming and pushing that mean old mans hands away from me, anyway we finally got 8 eggs, 6 were mature enough to fertilise, and 4 fertilised, so i quess that is good news, but im still very sore and very swolen, so i hope they will proceed with ET tomorrow.
There are so many BFP'S on here at the mo, which does fill me with confidence, although it would have been nice to freeze some to use later instead of paying privatly.
Good luck to all, and BFP'S for all.

Charlie & Richard,

Good luck for tomorrow. Don't forget to get your feet up for at least 3 days. I know if mine goes to plan this week, I certainly will be resting.
I've taped all sorts of crap of TV to watch.

Lots of baby dust your way...
