    motherhood - sorry you're going through this extra stress during what is a horrible thing in the first place. I had issue once when there was discussion about extending my days of injections for a second time during cycle 2...a conversation had to take place between my FS and the director of clinic..both who had surgery...so at 4pm I still didn't know and gave up on the clinic and phoned FS's rooms myself, and the FS called me back 10 minutes later himself. It just doesn't help us and our state of mind does it?! Good luck hope your phonecall gives you positive news.

    Coral...wonderful no.s here's hoping they all keep growing nice and strong.

    Meg - you're one day ahead of me..and one no. of eggs ahead of me fingers crossed for us both. are you doing 2/3 day transfer or blastie?

    Nix - I can relate to the position you're in...feeling rubbish, then start to look to the next, go over the finances, and slightly bitter, but at least we can give it another go kinda feeling! hugs.

    sonya and loops - good luck girls....not over till that big lady's singing.

    AFM - most of the nurses said they recognised me...which isn't a good sign as it shows I've been there too many times! Anyway I did say to DH, good job they told me that before I was in theatre, knocked out with legs in stirrups.........sorry had to lighten mood in the room, as I was feeling a bit more 'over it' this morning. DH said, this'll be the last time...I said, 'we said that last time!'

    Anyhoo....9 eggs, which after 5 and 5 during first 2 cycles is a no. I'm happy with. Waiting on the call to say how many fertilised.

    Feeling a bit sore when I sit down, so off to lie on sofa and watch my shows.

    Lise - Huge big congratulations to you and DH. Am happy for you guys.

    Just an update as finally got my call from the Nurse. Have to go up from 375IUs to 450IUs with an US and BT on Sat morning. Hmmm doesnt make me feel any better but what did help is that my nurse sensed that I wasnt all that good when she told me and actually called me back to have a chat and make sure I was as ok as I can be.
    Like I told her, IVF is hard but when your there for genetic reasons and genetic reasons only, when you have these issues, it makes it twice as hard.
    Heres hoping my levels go up and up and up. Got nothing else to do but FX and .

    Congratulations Lise! That sounds like a perfect number! I suspect only one (unless your b/t was very early), but you'll definitely find out in 2 weeks!

    Hi Everyone,

    Well it's an afternoon full of good news!!

    Lise- CONGRATULATIONS!!!I'm so pleased for you. Now we just have to wait to hear how many!!

    airline-Nice work! I'm scheduled for transfer on Friday when my little darlings will be 3 days. Can't wait to hear you fertilisation numbers!

    Coral- Great news Honey. Hopefully you'll have some lovely ones in there!

    AFM- All 8 fertilised!! Woo hoo! The word from the scientist is that at this stage they are all looking good. I'm so thrilled as I feel like we've got a bit of room for error. Bring on ET on Friday. And bring on more good news for all of us!

    Lise- that has made my day, massive congrats to you

    MotherhoodhereIcome- I wish there was something I could say to help you feel better but there isnt so I just want to offer you some ((hugs))

    Meg- great news for you, that is an excellent result, I hope all those 8 keep growing

    airline- thanks for the giggle about the nurses recognising you. GL and I hope all 9 fertilise for you

    Coral- wow you had a huge number there, sounds like all is progressing well for you too. FX they keep doing so

    mitf- ((hugs)) try to keep occupied with other things, I know its so hard to do. I hate the 2ww.

    loops- whens your next stim cycle hun? ((hugs)) to you too

    Mel- I only had 5 eggs last cycle, 3 fert, 1 made it far enough ((hugs))

    AFM- omg where do I begin. I had an atrocious week. Lots of bad stuff going on outside of TTC world. But in TTC world lol, I went for BT & US yesterday, day 9 to find I only have 4 follies Doc has me on 225ui of GonalF up from 175ui last round. Last round I had five eggs, this time I had obviously hoped for better.
    Went back for further bloods this am. Waiting to hear results of that. The follies I did have were fat juicy ones, so IM hoping thats all thats needed.
    Yesterday I was pretty upset about that news, then a unmeant unthoughtful comment by a friend who falls pg just thinking about it had me in tears. Dh was late home from work and ugh it just wasnt a nice day for me.
    My poor tummy is looking so battered its hard to find somewhere to put the needles in atm. I am so over this whole IVF thing & if this round is another flop we will be taking probably a 6 month break to re-group a little.
    Im just hoping and praying today they tell me to take my trigger and I can have EPU soon, enough needles already
