Carolyn, Congratulations hun on your beautiful boys. well done you, lovely names and wow how big were they!!! hope you are all doing well and are now home and finding your feet. Boys are the best they really love their mummies.

Hi to everyone else, nice to see some activity.

AFM, well gone from bad to worse, my darling Oliver woke up sunday with a really swollen eye completely closed, after a trip to A&E we have spent 3 days in hospital with him hooked up to IV antibiotics, he has Orbital cellulitis and if left untreated can lead to blindness ar even (rarely) fatality.We are now home and continue on oral anti b's for 8 more days. In himself he is still a happy chappy, just us that are freaked.

catch you later

HI GIRLIES!!!!!

OMG it's been so long! I've been wanting to post here countless times, but I only had time to read!!!! I AM SO GLAD TO SEE YOU GIRLS ARE STILL KEEPING THIS THREAD ALIVE!!!!!!

So much has happened! And I have a lump in my throat just to know that I can still come here and get updates about you all! VIVA INTERNET! :D You know you've been in my thoughts all this time! :D:D:D

First things first:

CONGRATULATIONS CAROLYN!!! Oh, lovely little boys! I LOVE the names too, so beautiful and masculine! :D I hope you are recovering well from the C-section; those boys were huge!!! You must have been really looking forward to delivery in the end! :) How are you coping with the first few weeks? Are there pics somewhere? I'm sorry to hear about the nights... it takes some adjustment. Basically, once you quit hoping/waiting that things get better, it's easier to take things one hour at a time and stay calm and positive. Remember, it NEVER lasts, it will change eventually, but not right now. That thought helped me a lot in the first months. *HUGS*

TRACY, I'M SO HAPPY THINGS ARE FINALLY MOVING!!!!!! YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY GIRL!!!! Woooooohooo! OMG sweetie, it's been SUCH a long road... you've been so patient and strong, an example for us all! And from what I've seen around here, strong and patient girls always get to welcome a little angel or two in their home, one way or the other, sooner or later. Take Auntie Pebbles, for example, I've seen her pic on MySpace and she's holding a child! And you know what? Looks like we may cycle together... SQUEE! how great is that???? :D:D:D:D:D:D You can be sure I'll check on you regularly from now on. I hope you'll post updates often!!! HEY just read about your egg count, does it mean you'll use your own eggs? AMAZING!!!! :D

LEE! My dear, dear Lee, how I've missed you too!!! :D:D:D It's so exciting to see you apply officially for your little girl! How long before you know??? Can we see pics?

HOPE! :D:D:D Congrats on your BFP! I hope your pregnancy will be uneventful and above all, wonderful to experience! :D:D

Rachel, Shantala, it's great to see you pop your head and say hi, but what's going on in your lives at the moment? :D I want to know!!!!

Jayne, I'm so sorry to hear that Oliver is sick... :( How are things evolving right now?

Hi Vic! :) So, Clomid... does it mean you'll have IUI? It should be around now, right? I'll keep my fingers crossed for you girl! :D

HI BECKY!!! Wow, adoption???? Is it in your signature? It's the first time I hear about that, can you tell us more? :D

HI to all the others I might have omitted!!!! :D:D:D

AFM, well, a lot has happened. DH almost lost his job (massive cuts in the company) and if he had we would have moved to Quebec city to live closer from my family (father's side). I had planned everything and our quality of life would have been amazing (private practice, far less commute time, live in the country, etc.). But he didn't lose his job and isn't ready to quite just yet. He prefers to make baby #2, which postpones our relocation to Quebec city to the end of my second maternity leave, in about two years. Jérémie will start day care next week; we'll do things very gradually over a few weeks. I'll go back to work on April 1st. I've found a super day care for him (home day care with 8 other kids, they'll play a lot and they're vegetarians hooked on organic food) so besides the normal sadness of letting my little boy go, I'm really happy that he'll get to play with other kids. He's ready for that.

So here I am, back on the board, overwhelmed to see you here, and doing the good old wait! Yup, waiting for AF so I can call the nurses and let them know we're ready to start FET. When I call, I'll start weaning Jérémie over the three weeks before medication begins (Suprefact nasal spray). FET should happen around May 5th or so, which means I would have a January 2011 baby. Not sure I'll join a cycle buddies thread, but I'll come here to check on you girls! :D

Okay, time for me to go, take care ladies!

Hi ladies,

Nice to see some activity.

Becky, lovely to see you on hear and a new plan underway, hope all goes well for you, keep us updated.

Carolyn, hope things are settling down a bit for you, just remember to sleep when the babies sleep even in the day, housework won't go anywhere, my house is still messier than it has ever been, but having fun with my boys is more important, especially how fast they grow up.

Tracy good luck with your cycle, hoping you get great news.

Hope, many congratulations when is your first scan, don't want to alarm you but with no's like that it could be multiples!!!!

Sophie, lovely to hear from you, glad all is going well, good luck with your next cycle, how exciting. Sounds like you are really loving motherhood, will you hope for a girl next time?

Lee, any update on your adoption process?, hope you are getting all your studying finished on time without too much stress.

Vicky, good luck on the clomid, heres hoping for a baby belly for you.

Hi to any i've missed.

AFM, thanks for the good wishes for Oliver ladies, he bounced straight back and got the all clear at the Drs earlier this week, we just have to keep vigilant to make sure it does not return. I cannot beleive my boys will be 2 in 4 months time!!! They are such a joy at the moment their talking is coming along great and they understand sooo much. We are now arranging their christening which will be in June, at last all our family say. Not much happening with us, very broody would love more but hey ho what i have is all i'm getting, plus Sil is pregnant again think that will be hard when it comes around.

Got to go, catch you all soon

Hello my lovelies :D

I cant belive so many ladies on here with baby boys (and girls obvisouly Rachel/Shantala :) ) hope they are all doing well an thriving away.

Yes, as some of u will see in my sig - we are now on the 'adoption' route/ It wasnt a hard decision, it was much harder to decide to give up the tmt and to move on to summit else. I knew that it would be either one, as i couldnt give up on Brian ever being a daddy ... i wont ever give up on that and will fight till the bitter end for him.

We had a SW visit (Social worker) and have been booked onto the 3 day course. Its every Friday for 3 weeks and starts on 19th this Mth :shock: its come around so quick! I havent thought much about what comes after the course, i want to take it one step at a time ... but i think then we apply (if we havent been scared off on the course lol) and if they accept us, the home visits start (not looking fwd to those)

So, its kinda like 'all systems go' but then im trying to put it to back of my mind ... u know what its like ladies, best sometimes to be oblivious of it all happening :lol:

So, lots happening here .... babies GALORE :D will have to get a new 'updated' list here with all babies, and updates as to who is at what .... lets get this thread back to how it used to be ..... FULL FULL FULL :D

Xxxxx

1 IVF=BFN 2 IVF=BFN 3 IVF=BFP :) m/c @ 8 wks :( 4 IVF=BFN
