Joy,
Good luck to both you and DH tomorrow with the tests.
OK - the syranel must be getting to me - sorry Lieve - I hope the tests went ok...

OK - the syranel must be getting to me - sorry Lieve - I hope the tests went ok...
Goodluck Joy..thinking of you..
good luck with the tests Joy, I had a day off the computer yesterday, wouldn't let myself turn it on and I got heaps accomplished, have to do some stuff for DH's buisness this morning then I am going to do the same again and turn off the computer (not even allowing myself to turn it on tonight when I have finished my tasks for the day need early nights more importantly)
will check in to make sure everybody is oK though but only briefly for a little while.
Good idea Blizz!
Maybe I need to do this as well - the syranel is definitely kicking in - got very impatient with DH tonight! (as well as substituting Joy's name for Lieve - sorry Lieve!)
Also had the allergy test today - I am allergic to household and compost MOULD! Which means I may never lift a finger in the garden or clean a bathroom again :dance: You should have seen DH's face when I told him that he will have to clean the bathroom in future! :rofl:
I'm getting an X-Ray and CT scan tomorrow morning very early so I will have to go to bed very soon...
hey I sused the bathroom thing out years ago...all bathroom cleaners effect my asthma so DH has been the official bathroom cleaner for quite a few years now:rofl:
good luck with your tests Gargy, hope they help to sort some answers out for you.
I am going to dissappear again shortly having a can't be bothered week this week, DD is due to wake any minute now and I need to organise some tea for us will be in bed early tonight...hope all are well :loveshower:
Hi Ladies
Just thought I would let you all know I am ok! I think I was really hormonal when I wrote my last post!! I mean I am still disappointed but I am ready for the next step! I am focusing on getting my body and mind ready... been doing lots of exercise (which I think is helping me feel good!) eating well & just thinking in a positive way.
Our next FS appt is on 27th October... so will organise our FET then. I have my next acupuncture session tomorrow so looking forward to that...
Gargy - How is the synarel going? Are you thinking of doing acupuncture?
Blizz - Not long to go now!! How exciting!!
Lieve - I hope the tests went well... thinking of you
Well that's all from me for now... will be back sometime over the weekend to catch up with you all
:grouphug:
Hi ladies, I am sorry if I am crushing this thread, but with the latest information we just found out (DH's sperm DNA SCSA result came back 30) I just want to know what the process for sperm donor involved.
I know I might have jumped the gun a bit but the more research I found, the more I googled, the more I get scared. I don't want when I get pregnant then I start to worry about m/c, birth defect, childhood cancer or even offspring infertility, gee, that's just too much. And as much as I know myself, I will never cease to worry ...
While we are doing what we can ATM to improve DH's result, just want to find out the back-up plan if we need.
thanks guys
Cuddlepie,
You are entirely welcome to be here!
Was the research you were doing about DH's issues, or about donor sperm? (sorry, a little confused by your 2nd paragraph)
With donor sperm, the donor is asked to give a sample to make sure that the sperm is within normal parameters as far as numbers are concerned. I think (long time ago) they are also tested for genetic defects - I know it is tested for CF.
The process: well it will depend on the clinic that you use. If you wish to use an anonymous donor, the clinic will have Australian donors on their books and you will be able to choose from those available. Some clinics also allow people to access specific American donors - but this will be restricted to those the clinic have identified. If your clinic has limited or no donors you may be placed on a waiting list.
The other method is to use a known donor - a relative or friend that is willing to donate.
The other thing that the clinic will require is counselling to ensure that you and your partner understand the issues surrounding using a donor, such as when to tell the child, and knowing that the child can contact the biological parent at 18.
Expect grief and anger as emotions that you will need to deal with. As Blizz said in a few posts down, it is the grief equivalent of losing a child.
Hope that helps Cuddlepie
evening all,
Dh has popped out to pick up some noodle box for tea so have popped in for a quick catch up.
We had our floor tiles layed this morning and they look great (it is amazing rennovating even one tiny room to completion is so exciting it's just that we have so many 'works in progress' that it really started getting us both down.
I think DH has come around to the idea of it being better to pay somebody to do a job for us rather than trying to do things ourselves and then running in to trouble and consequently running out of enthusiasm for the project.
We hav had a glorious summer equivelent day today we all cracked out the shorts and Paige even had a splash in her clam shell pool this arvo.
(blame us if we don't see the sun again any time soon)
Paige has decided that she doesn't want to sleep during the day now and she has stayed up both today and yesterday with out a sleep, she has been flat out tonight playing outside on the deck and then with her older cousins at 6pm on the dot she plonked herself on my lap and cuddled in to my shoulder and I noticed her getting heavier but hadn't realised she was totally zonked on my shoulder in less than 30secs flat (I think an intermitent day sleep may be possible for a little while hopefully with out too many arguements from my very bossy 2 year old)
Still trucking with this HUGE tummy, midwife even had the nerve to say "there's still a bit of room for bubba to grow!!!!!!" I looked at her and said "don't tell me that, i am already bigger than I was at the end of my PG with Paige".....me thinks this little boy may be on the verge of being HUGE.
Still have 11 days to go if I don't go over like I did with Paige (by 2 weeks)
feeling great in myself have a little more energy and feeling healthy for the first time in this entire PG (Blizz touches wood so she doesn't jinx herself)
I woke up twice last night to Paige and then realised why....the neighbours had either music playing or a band practicing at 1:30am....If they had woken Paige one more time I would have rung the police but they must have stopped by then as she didn't wake again (I couldn't hear it from my room but it was loud as anything in Paiges room at the back of the house)
Well that's it for me for an update take care all, my noodles have arrived
Allie.B xxxxxx
Thanks Gargy for answering my confusing question. Its good to know how the whole thing works...haven't talked to DH yet, bet he will say no to Donor sperm idea...I guess I just want to find out the logistic part of the process and if we really need to go down that path, it will be a long road to prepare emotionally and psychologically...I hope we don't need to...
For the time being, we are just waiting to connect with FS next week and most likely to be told that there is nothing to worried about just go with PICSI for this cycle :rolleyes:. The important thing is WE need to have enough evidence (scientifically and statistically) to make us feel comfortable to do so...we will see...
BLizz, your life seems like a picture perfect for me, not long to go...how exciting!
Cuddlepie, when we went down the route for anon. DS, we were offered local and international sperm donors. the international donors had quite a detailed family history of the health of parents, siblings, aunts and grandparents. You can search the website and bring in your own choice (additional cost) or choose one from the list of donors from the clinic. The donor decision is entirely up to you.
You could also choose ICSI which is an alternative if they find some sperm, that aren't mobile enough. Some people choose relatives (ie brothers) or friends who are willing to donate. The issue in Australia is that the donor has to be willing to be contacted by any offspring after the offspring reach 18.
In addition, any excess embies produced by donor sperm, cannot be on-donated (which is the thing I found extremely difficult).
blizz.. totally agree about getting tradies in, glad to hear that things are getting sorted out re the renos. Paige is just adorable! Still have my bets on the 30 October - or perhaps 29th for you and DH to meet Angus!
Take care everyone!
cuddlepie, having DH say no to DS is not an uncommon event, my DH was very certain that we wouldn't go down that track but with some very good counselling an amazing FS and family support we both headed down the DS trail and now have our wonderful family and absolutley no regrets, it is amazing what becomes clear when there are very limited options
Whoopsy!!
Almost forgot the syranel! I've had a full on day with cleaning and I was having a shower.
My mobile phone alarm went off and I thought 'what's that for?'
Then I suddenly remembered and went flying out of the shower! Luckily I took it within the right space of time.
Not sure if this vagueness is to do with stress or the syranel, but gosh this is doing my head in! :doh:
I also put the frozen chicken in the fridge, had to go back and forth between our room and the laundry because I forgot what I was doing...oh this is fun!
Blizz - I agree, getting tradespeople in usually makes things much smoother...
Gargy, welcome to the wonderful world of Syneral - I've been under incredibly stressful situations and been forgetful - but nothing like when I was on Syneral - I would drop out in the middle of a sentance and forget what I was saying or what the other person had just said!!
Hi Cuddlepie,
Potential sperm donors at clinics are tested for most common genetic defects and are also screened by known family medical history. Then the quality and quantity of their sperm is checked. They are also screened for any STD's. Finally trial freezing and thawing is undertaken to ensure their sperm can survive the rigors of the freezing/thawing process. To top it all off, all sperm is quarantined for 6 months before it is allowed to be used by recipients. Not any male can be a sperm donor, in fact many people who get tested to be a sperm donor do not meet the requirements. Thus if you utilise an Australian SD from an Australian clinic then the risk of any defects or illnesses from the donor sperm is actually less than from the average male in society.
SD2001
I asked this question of my clinic counsellor a few years ago and she said that the recipients could donate the embryo and that I had no input into the matter. The SD looses all rights to the sperm once it is utilised to fertilise an egg. So the recipient couple could then donate the embryo to another couple without the need for the consent of the SD.
This is a possible "grey area" for the new NSW legislation coming out ...
My personal opinion is that I am happy for the recipient couple to donate the embryo to another couple, but it is a little weird that I do not get a say in the matter. I very much doubt the clinic would even inform me of the situation.
Wow SD, I have selfishly never considered this angle, but it makes total sense,
I must admit that I haven't actually considered the rights of our SD at all, I was on the fence about donating any remaining embies but my reason was a lot more selfish, I just couldn't get my head around the fact that my DD and soon to be DS's biological brothers and sisters would be out and about in this not so large world I know the risks would be small but a small risk is still a risk too much for me.
We have only 3 remaining embies and although I feel that our family will be complete in a couple of weeks time I will hold on to the reamining embies for another couple of years just incase and will possibly change my mind by this stage.
SD2001 Welcome to our little group, your input will be appreciated, it is great to have some different perspectives to the DC journey hope you hang around with us for a while
SD2001,
This must be a clinic decision. We were also told that we could not donate the embryos unless we have permission from the donor. Like Tarkine, this also made me very upset.
SH2001 - We were told about the not allowing to on donate, due to the fact that the donor of the sperm did not have a say in it. The lady who told us this (March 08) had been dealing with donor issues for 30 years. She also said it was unlikely that any changes to the legislation would be retrospective (to those frozen embies).
My issues were that if we were to be blessed with a healthy baby (and we only ended up wanting one) then we would not be able to share the blessing with other couples, by on-donating the embies. I would love it that the legislation changed and it was made retrospective. If only I was 10 years younger, I would donate my eggs in a flash!
Hi Blizz, Gargy and Tarkine,:
We were also told that we could not donate the embryos unless we have permission from the donor.
If this is something that you strongly believe in, then an option could be to contact the donor (via the clinic) and request permission to donate the embryos. The donor will most likely say Yes.
More information can be found in the NHMRC guidelines. See section 6.14 "Responsibility for gametes and resulting embryos".
"Once fertilisation has taken place, the persons for whom the embryo has been created have responsibility for decision making about its use in their own reproductive treatment and the medical care of the embryo (both before and after implantation into the uterus), storage and disposal."
Also see section 7 "Use of donated embryos".
Hi everyone,
Syranel is really kicking in - or the stress - not sure which, but I've had massive headaches over the past two days.
Work situation unfortunately has not been resolved - but I think its getting there...
Will hear from the vet tomorrow as to whether the dog is ok.
Have heard some really bad news about the wife of a friend of DH's - unfortunately her cancer has become terminal and she will pass away in the next few days. She is only 37 and has 2 children.
Feeling very down.
ETA: AF has just arrived. Maybe this has been adding to my sad feelings.
Hi Gargy...so sorry you're going thru such a hard time right now. I am so sorry for your DH's friend - it is tragic. Take care sweetie...thinking of you..
Gargy:hug::comfort:for you and for your friend...that is one of my worst fears
Hi everyone
Been MIA for a few months trying to avoid thinking about cycling/TTC etc but we are back on the bandwagon with another cycle underway.
I was interested in your discussion about on-donating embies that are result of SD.
The situation with my sister's donated eggs is DH and I have every right to on-donate any embryos without her permission. This was the one part of donating my sister had difficulty with as she found it difficult to imagine her children having a half genetic sibling (or cousin as we prefer to call any resulting child) possible out in the community and not knowing who they were. If there was a child resulting from the on-donation Em would be contacted by the Vic authorities to let her know but with limited details.
As a way forward we agreed to consult her if we ever considered doing this and wrote that up in our informal contract (like a memorandum of understanding) between the 4 of us. The final decision though would come down to DH and I. Of course in our situation the likelihood of ever being in a position to on-donate is so slim but you have to think of all the possible scenarios. We would probably so known donation after consulting Em as this way there is a link and the child could have a chance to know their genetic heritage etc.
Allie not long now!!! wishing you all the best sweets.
xx
Dusty,thanks, yep on the count down now providing I don't go over like I did with Paige by 2 weeks (I hope not I am starting to feel like a beached whale at times and often need DH to help me up from situations where I have got just plain stuck....it will be worth it all shortly
Have had a busy day went shopping in Launceston (about 2hours away) with DH and Paige had a lovely day had lunch at an out door cafe am totally exhausted now.
better go and organise tea before I collapse for the night,
love to you all Allie xxxxxxxxxxxx
I will be in for a proper catch up when I have caught up on a little sleep
Did anyone here the story by Bill Cosby about 'buck, buck' ?
It was about a game where one group were in a stack, holding each other, and a second group of people jumped on the first group yelling 'buck, buck' trying to break the stack.
Bill Cosby's group had Fat Albert in it, so whenever the group they were competing against heard him coming, they instantly gave up.
I feel like this at the moment. Pressures keep stacking on to see how much I can take before I break.
I've written about it in my blog - but in a nutshell the work situation isn't any clearer, DH and I will be visiting the girl with cancer on the weekend, and we don't know the results from the dog.
However I rang the clinic and they said it was a good thing that I had AF. Also, DH and I will be going up to Terrigal to see Hollybolly and some other people from BB - which hopefully should be fun.
So, still feeling down - but I have the song 'I will Survive' in my head so I hope that means something...
Blizz - sounds like fun.
Dusty - glad you're back
SD2001 - tell us a bit about yourself. Are you a dad yourself? How did you get involved in donating in the first place?
Lulu - thanks sweetie - I'm hoping it will get better too...
Tarkine - how are you doing?
Joy - how are you?
Cuddlepie - what have you decided?
Lieve - how's it going?
Gargy - hun if it isn't raining it's pouring - sorry to hear of your friend - such a difficult time.
I'm plodding along - work is work; DH is in Brisbane (again - he went last week!) his plane is delayed and I'm sitting here spinning my wheels waiting for news on when it is due to arrive. One of my cats got grease in his fur, and the vet advised I've got to shave him or wash him (each both equally as dangerous as the other)... both my shoulders have decided to go like boards - I'm seeing an osteopath to get my joints working again - something to do with the extra fluid in my joints, impacting on the movement and sitting at a computer all day doesn't help... not complaining.. making the most of every minute of this miracle pregnancy of mine, even the crappy painful moments!
Sorry moderators totally off topic :)
Take care girls!
Thanks Gargy for thinking of me...read about your blog, sorry to hear that seems everything all happen at once in your life right now, but you will survive. Funny you mentioned that song stuck in your head, it was seriously in mine last night coming back from Pricillia - the Musical, and that kind of cheered me up a bit...because
ATM, I feel tangled. All the decisions need to be made, stay with current FS or not, continue this cycle or wait till next one etc. I won't go into much details but in summary it was a mess, maybe it actually is not but it sure feels like it. My mental state is a mess. I have booked Dr. Lok (specialized in male infertility) for next Friday 24th to see what's going to happen. My current FS didn't take this too well, he said that I am overreacting to 'a slight raise in number' (exact his words)...
All these remind me 'Harry Potter' movie when Harry, Ron and Amalia fall into this hole and were tangled by those monstous tree roots. The more you struggle, the tighter it gets. The only way to get out is 'to relax' (don't we hate this phrase?) and let go.
Oh well, that's what I am going to do now...let it go...take the path that universe lay in front of me and take the least resistance and just go with the flow...
I am not going to patch up with current FS, not going to even venture to think of what I am going to do right now, I will just wait until next Friday seeing Dr. Lok and take from there...
Sorry for lack of personals, I am not in the state of mind right now...but hugs to all you lovely ladies.

cuddlepie take the time you need hon, we're always here for you:hug:
Hi everyone else...nothing to report here, DD is at daycare today so have been pottering around with DH and he will be heading back to work shortly, hoping to do a quick grocery shop before we pick up DD as she has become a slight monster at grocery shopping time.
love to all will be back in later for a better catch up if I don't crash in to bed early again.
Gargy hope you don't mind but I have added your mobile number to my phone so I can SMS you when little Angus makes his appearance.
Not planning to stay in hospital too long this time 1st time around I stayed way too long being a nervous new mum so all things being right and equal I will only be in a couple of days min.
love to you all, take care Allie.B xxxxxxxx
No, I am currently not a dad yet. Nearly was once, a long time ago.
I got involved in donating through a female friend of mine. She and her husband were going through IVF at the time.
What else would you like to know?
I am off to sunny Queensland today (Friday) with my better half for a long weekend in the sun ... so I'll chat again when I return.
totally jealous SD, enjoy the sun....mind you if I went to Queensland at this point I would have to keep a close eye out for greenpeace incase they try to save this poor beached whale by rolling me back in to the sea!!!!!
have fun
:lol: Blizz - you are a crack up! Glad to have you SMSing me.
SD - sorry, in rereading that question to you it did sound a bit interrogative. You can blame the syranel or my stressful life if you like - or just that I am nosy! I was just curious about you that's all, and how you had started down this path. I'd love to hear more about you if you feel it's not invading your privacy.
Time away sounds wonderful - I hope you and your partner enjoy the time away.
Tarkine - poor wussy cat - grease in the fur sounds horrible! Ouchy on your joints! Oh - as a Moderator I give you my express permission to talk about all aspects of your life - because it all relates back to donor conception, doesn't it? :lol: (and gee, don't I sound full of my own self importance! :rolleyes:)
Cuddlepie - that does sound really hard. I can't believe a FS was so petulant! Surely you have the right to seek treatment elsewhere if the current one doesn't feel right?
Hi Joy, Lieve and MinnieMouse!
As for me - updated the blog again. Quick synopsis: I'm going to a BB meetup tonight (yay), having a sad day tomorrow seeing our friend with terminal cancer, then medical tests on Monday.
I've also decided that if the Principal decides I am the one to go then I am ready to go. I just hope the school I end up with has reasonably decent kids, a staff that is team orientated (with me included in that team), a HT that is organised and supportive, and a management staff that values what I do. I may even drop the STLA willingness to teach, and go back to teaching straight English and History - what I was originally trained in. Something to think about. (that second paragraph wasn't really quick, was it? :lol:)
Gargy, gotta love that synarel for getting you out of bed early on a Saturday morning!!!!!
(noticed the time of your post)
I wish I could sleep in but between
-the blonde alarm clock smacking me on the check at 5:30 saying "you awake mummy?" then after lifting her in to my bed to watchi cartoons I get the cold feet kicking me in the belly and pushing and poking in a very uncomfortable way....then progressing to "GET OUT MUMMY!!!.....GET OUT MUMMY!!!!!) when she has had enough
and
feeling sooooooo incredibly uncomfortable with the sorest hips, being only able to sleep an hour on one side then an hour on the other.....the waking up and not being able to get comfortable enough to get back to sleep.
and guess what???????????????????? it is my sincerest wish that you too will get all of these fun and games at the end of this cycle:loveshower:
My wish for all of my good friends in DCS xxxxxxxxxxx
love to you all
I am off to try and organise the final stages of project laundry and should hopefully be finished with tradies and have the whole project complete by next weekend.
Allie. B xxxxxxxxx
gargy - I really hope that if you do move, you do go to a better school - You never know that it could be a blessing in disguise!
Go syneral for getting up early! While I'm not sleeping, my shoulders are sore as anything and I'm grumpy and tired, I still feel extremely blessed that there was a donor out there who donated sperm, so we could experience all the joys of having children. I'm watching AC/DC live in concert, while waiting for DH to get back from the hardware shop with more paint (I know I'm crazy painting with shoulders that are really sore) but I won't have many more days when I can climb a ladder to finish off the painting. If I left it up to DH, it would never get done!! :rolleyes: Love him to pieces but sometimes would love to slap him around with a wet kipper!!
Blizz - just wait til you have two of them jumping into bed to watch cartoons!! Sounds wonderful (except for the slapping in the head!).
SD - enjoy your holiday - sounds great!!
Take care everyone
WHERE ARE WE ALL????????
nothing has changed here still trucking.....thought I may have burst my waters this morning with being sick but nope still intact.
Have been to local furniture store this morning to chase up my new washing machine and dryer...they rang me yesterday to say that the one that had arrived was damaged, they noticed it when it was being loaded on the truck, so I told them not to bother delivering it as we would like a new undamaged one thanks for coming so they searched around for a replacement from another store and it arrived first thing this morning and when DH checked it before they got it off the truck...it had all of the plastic panel smashed like it had been hit with a hammer, the poor delivery guy said it was like that when they loaded it on the truck and the dryer also had a small dent in the door( they didn't give me a phone call this morning though!!!!) as well so we sent it back and went in to see them and they are supposedly in the process of trying to track us down another one to be delivered this afternoon...believe it when I see it.
We have the plumber booked in for tomorrow to install all of the outlets so it had better be here at least by first thing tomorrow....It shouldn't be so hard!!!!!
Laundry is looking great if we can ever get it finished....will post before and after photos when we finally get there.
on a brighter note went for a trip to a local toweling factory outlet and brought a whole bathroom set full of new towels in matching colours for $97 so that was 4 bath sheets, 4 bath towels, 4 hand towels, four face washers and two bath mats (as well as two huge boxes of toweling rags for DH).......I love bargain shopping.
love to all,
I've probably just learnt life's greatest lesson... you never know what's around the corner! After mixed messages from doctors, FSs and nurses, and a ****tail of conflicting results it now turns out the DH has a sperm or two that appear to be useable! God bless :pray: the FS who hunted high and low until he exhausted all avenues. It's been a very weird few weeks, from being at the absolute bottom of a dark and hopeless place, to trying to process what our reality appeared to be and make some positive headway along the donor path, to doing a complete U-turn and finding out we are still in with a chance. We had a counselling appointment last week which was sorely needed. I know I should be really happy, and I'm sure I will be as soon as I can get my head around all the events of the past 4 months. It's all taken a bigger toll than I realised, and i'm just a bit numb... whereas DH is floating on clouds!
So, a very long way to go but I start my first IVF-ICSI cycle as soon as AF arrives... and I can't wait.
Anyway, I'm still going to hang around this thread for a bit although for now it looks like we don't need to use a donor, I just feel connected to you all, your support has been (and I'm sure still will be) incredible and I want to follow your amazing journeys. Though I'm sure I'll see you in other LTAC threads too.
Blizz - is there anything you're doing that's NOT intended to bring on early labour????
Gargy - how's your week been - hope it hasn't been as full-on as last week and you're closer to 'the light at the end of the tunnel'.

yay...we have a space for bubba:dance:....after a full afternoon's cleaning we have finally made it to clearing a space for this bubba (tiny though the space may be) unfortunatley he won't be able to have his own room for a while and I really don't want to risk waking Paige up over night so we have fitted the cot in to a small alcove in the hallway which is where he will sleep overnight and I will put a cradle in to Paige's room for his daytime sleeps.
I am a bit embarrassed to post any pictures of it because it is such an unusual space for a baby but in all honesty Paige was well and truely over one before she even looked at going in to her bedroom to play and by this stage the two children will need to share a room for a little while anyway.
supposed to be getting our replacement, replacement washing machine first thing in the morning hopefully it will beat the plumber that we have booked.
Have midwife appointment in the morning as well then Paige will go to daycare so I might go accessory shopping for the laundry and bathroom it is sooooooo much easier without Paige in tow
Lieve - hang in there.. it only takes one sperm and one egg to make a baby!!
murphy's law strikes again!! my reason for returning to work in February was to guarantee that I would fall pregnant in 2008 (crazy logic I know) and I did.. Well it seems to be the way my life goes.. plan for x and y happens!!
Blizz - wonder woman!! Bargain towels (sounds great!).. I think if we had #2, bubs would have to be suspended from the ceiling!! (our house is 7.5 squares!)
gargy - hun.. thinking of you sweetie.. hope the syneral/IVF rollercoaster is being kind to you.
Well my shoulders are still hurting.. went to see dralion (circ de solia - spelling?) - got free tickets from virgin due to all the flying that DH is doing - loved the show, highly recommend going to see it - there are so many talented people out there - absolutely incredible!! although DH flew in at 7pm and it started at 7.30pm - thank goodness traffic was kind to us!!
love and hugs to all
Had another minor meltdown at work today - not pretty - crap work things happening plus forgetting on Tuesday night to take Syranel until 3 hours later than I was due, which I think added to the massive headache I had last night...
For some reason I was shocked this morning that they gave me the puregon - I just wasn't expecting it until later (don't ask me why!)
I start the Puregon injections on Sunday.
Blizz - I cannot believe that they tried to give you dented whitegoods TWICE! Once I can understand, but twice?
:D About the blonde alarm clock!
Yay on the space for the bubba!
Tarkine,
Sending you healing dust for your poor sore shoulders.
Lieve,
That's fantastic news! Hope everything goes well...
Joy, are you out there?
Hey everyone else...
