Hi everyone
It's been busy in here today! Dragons and ironing, hmmm? Very random and entertaining! Mind you, the only dragon around our house is the nasty cat from next door and ironing is *totally* out of the question, you crazy kids! Who ever inventing ironing was a sadist as far as I'm concerned

Melsta - how you doing there, hun? I start Crinone tonight - we can chat about all the nastiness of it in the next couple of days! :P I hope you're doing well and the wait is going ok. Any updates? I love your quote - it's wonderful to have things that really hit the right spot for us personally. It can make all the difference. You're a crazy girl for liking ironing, I tell you! Admittedly, I'll take dishes any day. I loooove doing the dishes

dellydoo - hang in there! You a real trooper, just like you say, a soldier going into battle. It's wonderful to see you have such a positive outlook, but remember you must look after yourself as number one, especially if things get worse, and we're very much hoping they don't. Take care! Best of luck for your EPU!

BG - awesome! 4 embies!! Congratulations! I was very bloated the day after EPU (yesterday) and really quite sore, but it seems to be disapating today, so if it doesn't start going away tomorrow call the clinic, hun, just to be on the safe side. Hope you're doing ok for now and that the wait for Friday is ok xo
P.S. Please let BW know I'm praying for her and hope she recovers as quickly as possible. Thanks.

dusty - absolutely changes for the better. New start is so positive!! What a great way to start the new year and the next step to your dream come true! I really hope you're doing ok for now. Many hugs to you xo

Brownbug - hope you're hanging in there ok, hun.

Kazza - sending lots of positive vibes your way and hope you're feeling ok. Take care

TL - you've been busy! Feng Shui is all a big mystery to me too, unfortunately!


Well, I have a tiny embryo on board fondly named Bernard by DF. I got to see it on the screen - it was 5 cells at 48 hours... which I'm told is a nice strong day 2 embie.
Out of our 9 eggs, only 3 fertilised, and only 2 made it past day 1. I was a little shocked, but I was told that these two embies are very good quality quote FS: " they are up there at the top of the grade and now we know that DF and you make beautiful embryos". Apparently the other eggs didn't fertilise as they weren't mature enough, which also means FS has learnt a lot about me and my eggies too.

So... one frozen embie, and one in mum's tum

I am very excited, but I have promised (sworn) to DF that I won't do any HPT's before the b/t on the 12Dec. He's a scientist, and he wants me to wait so we can be sure of our answer the first time round - scientists and their logic! With the wedding and Tassie, I feel very blessed that there are now distractions to help the time pass quickly, even though I viewed them as hindrances to the process originally. I realise now I'm so lucky.

Unfortunately I won't be round so much for the next week - we're off to Tassie in the morning with ILs until next Wednesday, but I will be thinking of you all lots and lots and really looking forward to catching you all next Thursday.

Please be well everyone

Lots of love and best wishes,

Miss C
