    Afternoon!

    Just popping my head in to see how all you lovely ladies are getting along. I see January was quiet after Christmas and things but everyone is gearing up again now. I am praying for you all and hoping that there is plenty of BFP action in here over the next few weeks. I hope that even if it doesn't happen this month that 2010 will be the year for you all.

    Danyelle - sorry to hear about your BFN hon. Good luck with NK cell test. I hope it provides you with some answers and it’s not to much longer till your name is up in lights on that wall of fame. x

    EmeraldStar - A tentative congrats to you hon. You deserve it and I think it would be great for you to be the first to start off your famous 2010 wall of fame!

    Loops - so glad to see you cycling again hon. Does this mean you sold the tractor? Did you get any eggs to freeze this time? Everything is crossed for you sweetie. x

    KayKay, Murray Cod, Miss K, and all the other new ladies in here I don't know. Wishing you all the best for your cycles. Hopefully you won't be cycling in this tread for to much longer..... try to remain positive and stress free (I know easier said than done!)...... anyway I have a feeling that 2010 is going to be a great year.

    mitf xox

    Oh - almost forgot... I love the new Avatars ES and MurrayCod! Congrats on your RAK - you both deserve it!

    Hey hey, thanks girlies, for helping to put my overactive mind at ease re achy tum - so hard to know whats normal first time round with everything being so new.
    Emerald - AWESOME!!!!! Hoping your BT tomorrow is huge!!!!
    Loops - go your little blasties, did all four make it to the freezer? Here's hoping the 2ww speeds by for us both! Hmmm Benefibre - maybe that is half my prob, I'm as bloated as hell, didn't think I was bunged up but perhaps I am a bit. Might have to dig out the dried apricots and see if that helps with things. Damn progesterone!!!
    Miss K - wow 16 fertlised eggies - fantastic!!!! May they carry on growing strong!! Glad you got your Crinone question sorted - we have these other ones in NZ that are two little pessaries three times a day and they don't come with applicators - so gross!!! The things we do, huh?!! How exciting for Wednesday!!
    Renee - how did today go hun? Hope all went good and you are feeling ok. Bummer about the job - don't know if I'd be able to cope with this and the prospect of a new job cos I'm a bit of a sook atm!!
    Danyelle - sorry about your bfn love, hope you are doing ok
    Mum-2-be - I'll say this to yu once but never again - YAY for AF!!!!!!!
    Trubabe - glad you are feeling a bit better and bleeding has eased. I have one tatt, a little celtic symbol at the base of my spine. About 18 months after I got it done, I had an op on my back. The surgeon did an awesome job at sewing it up and matching everything but when the wound was healing, it itched so damn much that now I have this big lin through it where I kept scratching at it - whoops!!!! Not such a biggie cos I have to do a fair bit of acrobatics in front of a mirror to even see it so it can't bug me too much
    Lairdoz - you strong woman, you, not poas!!! I hav great plans of not but I'm sure come the weekend, I'll cave. Doesn't help that I'm working over the weekend and there will be lots of lovely preg tests t tempt me!! Lucky me, I work in the very lab where all of our
    E2, progesterones and HCG are done. So trying to keep a bit of privacy is v difficult. However it does mean I can have a right old poas-fest if I so choose to!!!!!
    Me - three days down, only 8 more to go!!!! Been a right sooky today - I have done so well thrughout this whole process but everything made my bawl today - embarrassing!!! I called the clinic today to see about our other 2 embies but sadly they haven't made it to the freeze. Oh well, one is better than none

    Mitf ~ great to hear from you! Nup we haven't sold the tractor yet we just managed to save a bit up and also my nan gave us a present - some money to go towards it. So grateful!
    Not sure still if our other 4 embryo's have made it or not. On Sun at transfer they were doing well but they just had to make it to blasty today I think. Probably wont know until later in the week as my nurse is not around.
    Hope you and DH and the little 1 are all doing well xo

    Emerald ~ thanks hon, you 2 for tomorrow!! xoxo Nothing will go wrong, be strong, its your time!! I'll probably do a POAS around the weekend or next Monday - I think Mon would be when AF is likely to show if she is going to. Also if I get migraines i'll no it hasnt worked too. So stay away AF and Migraines!

    Melissa ~ hope you're doing ok in your TWW, its intense isnt it. As above not sure about my 4 embies yet, Ive been saying out loud the whole time, they are going to make it to blasty, they are going to make it, hopefully that works! Hope your little 1 is sticking around. I might have to get some dried apricots too as they are meant to be good for the bowels!

    Miss k ~ feeling a bit tender in the tummy, especially when I sit but not too bad. How are you feeling now? Did you get the Benefibre?

    Littlegem ~ Thats great to hear, GL at the next scan and BT and for your EPU, grow follies, grow!

    Renee ~ well done on the EPU, will have that they are of great quality! Now rest up and relax! GL

    Emerald Star - Congrats Hon!!

    That is fantastic that you get to start the Wall of Fame off for 2010. You totally deserve it after all you have been through... maybe it was the change in protocol... which reminds me did you get any embies to freeze this time? Your numbers look fantastic, enjoy celebrating with DH and I look forward to hearing about those rising numbers next Monday!

    Loops - That was so kind of your Nan to help you out with this cycle - plus you got to keep the tractor.. fantastic! Fingers crossed that this will be your lucky cycle too and good luck with little embies on their way to freeze... I will be lurking to see how you go.

    MissK - I am going great thanks... I am still lurking to check out how al my old LTTTC buddies are going and praying you all find success soon. Good luck, I hope your LTTTC journey comes to an end soon.

    Wishing all you other lovely ladies the best with your cycles... let's hope EmeraldStar has started a run of BFP's after the NY dry spell!

    Lairdoz - to you tooo....

    AFM - Still testing positives on the POAS...and like i said..i am starting to feel a little anxious as i am waiting for something to burst this bubble hopefully tomorrow brings the news i have been longing for! I know you younger girls have heard the line " oh, don't worry.. you still have time" and you absolutely hate hearing it.... but the truth is I don't..and this is reallly big news for me. I will be 42 in a few months and i always wondered if it was gonna happen for me.......I am SO SORRY about the rant, but i AM EXCITED, but at the same time very anxious. Thanks for listening.

    ES im sure all the positives are a POSITIVE! GL with your BT tomorrow, i dont know how you have waited i would have gone in today. lol

    And about younger ladies being told they have time on their side, i have been doing IVF for 7 years and have only just had my first hearbeat seen on US, so i never listen to the time comment.

    GL again
