Kate I was so sorry to hear your news, its good to see you are so positive and planning your next treatment. Sending big hugs to you.

Lucy my rabbit is called Smudge, he seems very well behaved but given the choice I think he would like to be a house rabbit! Mind you with this weather I wouldn’t want to be outside. :D What a hard day you had Friday, I think you were incredible to hold your self together until you got to your car. Life is unfair but it has certainly made all of us stronger people. I think its good to have something to focus on even if it is big brother!! That’s my excuse for watching it. My AF has always been worse after a BFN, I don’t know if there is a reason for it but it always feels like another kick in the teeth. :cry: Good for you booking flights to see your Mum, its hard not having your Mum around isn’t it, mine lives in Cyprus and I am really pleased she is so happy over there but at times I just want a big hug from her.

Julie you are doing so well, that’s fantastic going to the pub, what a test to pass. As for BB7 I cant stand Shabaz I just want to slap him :evil: and as you say what a wimp Nicki is, her whiney voice drives me mad. I wonder if they will have an eviction before Friday and when does the Kit Kat winner go in?

Jen im not surprised your really excited, EC Thursday that seems to have come around so quickly (not for you im sure) I am really excited for you. Sending bucket loads of baby dust and follie dust to you. :D :D :D

I had my follow up appointment today and the consultant said that it really wasn’t worth us paying the £500 to store the one embryo that is left. They only normally do un-medicated FET’s in extreme circumstances because they say the odds aren’t good, however I know people on here have had BFP’s from them. Anyway they have agreed that we can go for it, which is great news. :D Its not quite un-medicated because I take clomid from Day 2 to day 6. Our thawing odds aren’t great so we could get to ET and the embryo doesn’t survive but it’s the chance we take and also they don’t do ET for FET’s on a Saturday or Sunday so if I ovulate at the wrong time we would have to miss that month. :( So I am getting straight back on the rollercoaster and will be having an attempt at FET when my next AF arrives in approx 2 weeks. God its scary. :?

Hi Phoenix Ladies

Kate - Was really hoping for good news for you. Image So sorry it wasn't your cycle. Good for you, being positive and looking forward, but please give yourself time (and permission) to grieve, it's needed to heal better.

Lucy - You are strong, with all that you've gone through you have the right to cry! Image

Woohoo Julie! You are passing all tests with flying colours - keep it up! Image

Jen - Great news! You'll have just enough follies for the perfect amount of embies for a BFP! Image

Gail - Great news getting (almost) the cycle you wanted! Image

Hi to everyone else, hope you ahve a good week! Image

Had my 10 week scan today. :D :shock: :lol: Was a bit quick and the little thing was a bit hidden beneath my bladder, but all seems to be fine (normal-looking and heart beating!) and Dr. said baby was big! Image
Have a bladder infection, even though I don't feel a thing, so will have to take antibiotics to prevent it from spreading to my kidneys (supposed to be normal in pregnancies). :?
I can finally say I'm pregnant!!!!! Image Image Image Image Image

MLG - Congratulations!!! 10 weeks seem to have flown by. You will have your gorgeous baby in your arms in no time xx

JEN - Can't believe it - seems to have come so quick! Bet you are totally excited. Good luck for EC. xx

GAIL - Smudge, bless. Are you going to have him as a house rabbit? I have. Very well trained...eventually! Just treat him like a pussy cat. He is an old man now and can't see very well (cataracts) so a lot tamer. Glad you got somewhere with the clinic and it is all sorted. 2 weeks.....fingers crossed your AF comes mid week xx

Hi to everyone else.

Julie xx

Hi all

At clinic i was told i have 2 mature follies and 2 small ones...the most eggs to expect is 2 but also have been told there might be none :? :? I hate this sinking feeling of not knowing. i have beeen doing so good and today i am so scared and low...I have EC tomorrow ( thursday) at 9.30 am so at least it is early. I am trying hard to keep the faith and work that PMA...slowly but surley i will get there. keep telling myself i have done all i can so i just gotta sit ( or lie as it's EC )it out...On a pos note ADAM is due home tonight for 5 days until monday night...so i will be giving and getting hugs galore...
