    Good morning All,

    JBM - All the best for next month, hopefully a BFP for Christmas!

    LNB - Congrats! That's wonderful news. Hope the good news keeps on coming!

    Simone - Feb must have been devistating for you. I can't imagine. You have given yourselves lots of time to rest and regroup which can only be a good thing. Never heard of antagonist meds though. All the best and let us know how it goes.

    Mrs P - Wow, it's sounds like you have been through some tough times. I have never heard of heterozygous Factor V Leiden. I hope there is treatment available to you?

    Wouldloveabubba - Well done on the 11 eggs. That's very positive!

    To everyone else. All the best with your progress at whatever stage you are at. You have all inspired me to keep battling on and to learn to take the good with the bad.

    My update - My first ET started off as a BFP, only to m/c at 4.5wks just a few days ago. I'm going back to FS on Fri to make sure everything is as it should be. I reckon we'll wait until after my next AF before trying again. Luckily I have 7 little embies waiting for me. Bye for now!

    Hi Everyone

    Sorry I have been MIA. I have been trying to avoid thinking about this TWW. AF is due on Friday, so don?t want to get my hopes up too much!! Been keeping myself busy with work and friends and other general stuff?

    LNB ? congrats
    Wouldlovebubba ? nice eggs.
    Spring ? I?m sorry for your loss. Good luck with your next cycle.
    Wishingbaby ? good luck for this cycle. I?m sure BF is not complaining about all the BDing
    Big hello to everyone else
    AFM: I think if AF comes this month, then I will go in for a lap. Hopefully I can get it booked quite quickly, as AF is due on Friday, I have a dancing exam next Thursday and then I go to London the following Tuesday? . I just called the doc to see if I can book it now and cancel if AF doesn?t come, and see if I can get in next Friday. So holding fingers?
    For those of you who have had a lap, how do you feel afterwards? How long does it take to get over it? If I have it on Friday, will I be ok to fly on the following Tuesday do you think??

    Hi Babytruj - i've had a lap, and from my perspective, I'm not sure I would have been up for flying Aus - London 3 days later. it's a full general anesthetic which knocks you around a bit. plus i was a bit sore afterwards. Although, fingers crossed AF doesn't show up and you can cancel it anyway!

    smithy- great - well done with the eggs...fingers crossed for you

    Mrs M- hope your dad is OK....must be a stressful time

    babytruj- not sure about recovery time...i had one with the ectopic...but it also involved the removal of my right tube so was a lot more complicated and took longer to recover...hopefully you dont need it

    sarah - i'm so very sorry to hear about your dad. i hope you're holding up ok. re ivf delay, i know that months seems to take forever, but really, if you only need to delay by a few months, it will be nothing in the scheme of things. hang in there.

    Babytruj - I had a lap at the end of September, and really it took a while to recover. It was on the Tuesday, and I ended up taking the rest of the week off work, and didn't venture out of the house till Sat. I didn't feel like myself till 2 weeks later. I had another lap in 2004 and it took a similar amount of time to recover. Not sure if that's just me and how I deal with the general tho'. I was quite sore/sensitive this time, and things like bending and getting into and out of a chair was rough for a few days. But, as the girls have said, hopefully it will be a non-issue if AF doesn't show. Thinking of you.

    Possums – This must be a hard time for you guys right now. Try and keep busy and think to the future babies that you will have when the time is right.

    Mels77, Possums, Bub4me, – Thanks for your advice. Definitely not something to do before my dancing exam then!! I am waiting to hear back from the doctor, but wondering if I should just leave it till I get back. I work from home, so recovering will be easy (easier - I don't have to worry about walking around too much - except to take my dog for walks, and I'm sure I can get some neighbours to help with that if I need it), especially as London is due to be hectic….. Must speak to DH tonight and see if we are happy to wait another month to do it…

    WLB – not jet setting yet…. Good luck with the transfer

    To everyone else, hello. Hope you are having good days today.

    AFM – I’m still waiting on AF, and thinking that there is a lot happening in the next couple of weeks…. Been feeling very hot the last two days. Not sure whether that is the Clomid still (although I’m not sure if Chlomid makes you hot throughout your cycle or only when you take it) or whether its due to AF coming or something else (don’t want to say it in case I jinx it

    wouldlove - good luck today with your transfer!

    Possums - I hope you're ok. Thinking of you.

    Has anyone heard from Ruth?? I'm sure her BT was soon...?

    AFM - I think I'm in a TWW at the moment? Cycle has been v v strange and I couldn't even tell if I ovulated (and was a little slack with testing) but my temps have shot up, so possibly I have?? Anyway, taking it pretty easy for the next two weeks. And looking forward to a FET in December (assuming no miracle this month!)

    Hope you're all well.
