Hi there Thanks for asking after me. Sorry I don't post much here anymore --i get completly lost on these boards. I just post on ff now. Can't remember where I was up to on here. After losing Cameron, we had testing done and all tests came back normal. They said he was a "normal wee boy" How sad is that. All tests on DH and me came back normal too. So anyway after days of discussions we are now back on the IVF AGAIN !!! At the moment I am downregging unsucessfuly. Taking Bureselin due to the synerel shortage and then had to take provera for a bleed. Got another scan tomorrow to see if i have finally down regged (5 weeks later). Am complelety pi$$ed off with it all. I am so pleased you got your ++++ result. Hopefully i won't be far behind you !!! lots of love and hugs woppa xxxxxxxx

Hi Woppa, Just wanted to say I was thinking about you after reading about your test results. I'm sure it was of no consolation to hear that everything was 'normal' - sometimes I think that makes it harder to deal with. Keep your chin up about down reg, it's crap I know (my second IVF was like that - it took about 7 weeks for me, and a bleed at normal time), but, let yourself feel what you need to. Good luck for the scan - I'll keep my fingers crossed. Zoe x

hi woppa, thanks for posting this and letting me know where you were at. i have seen your stands on ff, and actually took a look at the pictures you posted. i am sure that each day has been a challenge, and i have always thought of you. i am hoping that this cycle gets going, have to say this attempt was the longest one since i didnt get follies developing and didnt think would get to ec, and then overcooked so to speak and had to coast. out of all of the days rolloercoasting i never ever thought i would get to see the pink line....i still am in disbelief. anyhow what i am trying to say is that there must be some natural irony in our responses to treatment and hoping that it will work in your favour in the long run. i am praying you wont be far behind me, in fact traci get those birch twigs out...hang in there guys, holding your hand in cyberspace, luv fi XXXXX

Sorry to jump in, but its good to hear your news Woppa. Despite Fiona LK's encouragement I really haven't got to grips with FF - and anyway reckon one website's quite enough to be hooked on(!) - but do think of you and Dougie often and hope you're doing OK. Hope that tomorrow's scan brings you good news - not surprised you're hacked off after 5 weeks trying to down-reg, I get frustrated when it gets extended by 2 or 3 days! Anyway, take care, and lots of love and a BFP for this cycle, and do keep us posted however occasionally, Alison x

Hiya Fi, Thought I'd post on here as its a bit smaller than your test results thread (nice isn't it when you get all those congrats - you keep wondering if they're really for someone else and have to pinch yourself

. Well, you made it girl - and Woppa, Helen and Alison are gonna join us very soon - I feel it in my water (and there is a lot of that at the mo, be warned). I know what you mean about not wanting to get over-excited, but I did start to relax once I'd had the 1st scan and it seems my acupuncture has saved me from too bad m/s so I'm enjoying starting to tell people now (I think I'm 12 weeks today!) My mum has been a bit funny (still not congratulated us) and work is really crap - my boss is being incredibly dictatorial but keep thinking I only have 5 months or so to go.... Apart from that I've been so tired at night I've just collapsed when getting in from work - oh, and I've got the starts of a very nice bump now. Les is due home soon and I have some driving school stuff to do tonight (I should charge consultancy really lol), so I might not get to e-mail til tommorrow, but I promise I will soon - will be wonderful to meet up at last. Alison - did you enjoy your hols? Any plans for when you going for FET? I keep thinking about you Take care everyone Lots of love Fiona xxxx

Hi again - thanks for your message Fiona. We had a wonderful holiday, and are making some positive, non baby related plans for the future, as well as doing little things to feel better like doing some work on the house, I'm playing squash more regularly etc. Putting my head in the sand a bit about the next cycle (which'll probably be a full one rather than using the last two frosties - long story). Phoned the clinic last week and out of the blue they said they wanted to do the NK tests. This is probably a good idea given my 2 low +ves in the past, but its another £880 and if they find anything the treatments are potentially expensive, plus why the hell didn't they mention this at my follow up appointment?! And I know we shouldn't dwell too much on other's bad news but Scorry's and Tracey's recent news have caused me to ask is it really worth it, and perhaps we should just quit without risking that bigger pain.... Blimey, sorry I don't know where all that came from! As I said, generally I'm feeling pretty positive about life, and even reasonably sanguine about the possibility of life without biological children, its the IVF itself and the drain that represents on money and time and the ability to plan weekends away and drink large quantities of wine I'm resenting!! OK, I'll stop there before I start ranting again! Anyway, many congrats on reaching the 12 week mark, congrats to Fi on the pink/blue line, and good luck to Elaine - hope your cycle is moving now. Alison x
