    Thanks Girls for all your cuddles. Its been a great source of comfort for me.

    N2L - Are you OK?

    Blossom - Good Luck for today. We will all be thinking of you and be quietly stalking you for your results.

    Kerbear - Good luck to you also today. We will be stalking you too

    Amy - I hope your tummy has settled down now. Some of them can be painful and others you barely feel. I felt as I got closer to pick up they got more tender. My trigger was the most painful. Lucky for me I dont have a washboard stomach so there is plenty to grab I too had the cleaning and cooking bug. DH said I was already nesting.

    Miss.B - Try and take it easy. I know its hard with a little one, but its important. And I hear you on the emotional side of things. Even a tv commercial could set me off lol.

    Jane - We are all excited to hear for your EPU tomorrow. There is nothing to feel guilty about, as at the end of the day its our own personal journey and at the moment yours is a very exciting!!! Enjoy the moment!!!! Plus we are all hanging out for some good news in this thread.

    AFM - Am feeling much better today. DH and I talked last night and both say how grateful we are that we POAS on Sunday so yesterday wasn't such a shock. We looked at the budget and can just scrape in another go when I see the FS next week. He said we agreed to give it 12 months and our all for IVF and whats done is done and lets look to the future. He has been amazing and my total rock. If he had of said he needed a break this month I would have secretly lost it. So, chin up, shoulders back, we are going to do it all again

    Hi all,

    Just a quick one as I am on my iPad but I wanted to say thank you for all the lovely messages of support from you all. It makes it easier knowing there are people out here who understand. So thank you all

    As it turns out I have had no more bleeding since that one bit yesterday morning. I am still sure I am not pregnant (haven't tested but NO symptoms whatsoever) but as I am not a 'spotter' with AF I wonder if it might have been old blood from the transfer or just irritation??? Who knows??

    Hope all of you are well...will try to get on pc for persies later x

    Ps. I was one day out on the list Vic. I hope you don't mind that I just changed it myself.

    N2L, It doesnt sound like your over and out yet. Are you going to POAS? I dont know either why you had a break through, especially since your on meds. Could be a bit of irritation. Will have all my fingers and toes crossed for you. Someone has to start the run of BFP's in here and I so want it to be you xxx And of course I dont mind that you changed the list. Feel free anytime to jump in.

    To anyone wanting to have a go at the list please, please let me know. Like I said am happy to do it but also very happy to be a share bear Do I have everyone right on the list? CD's and dates??? Anyone else want to jump on the list???

    Hi Meg

    Jane - Good luck for tomorrow

    N2L- I am not a spotter either but when I'm on progesterone I seem to spot on and off for a few days before AF. I assume it's because the progesterone is holding off AF and the spotting is breakthrough. With me it tends to lead to another roller coaster of devastation that it hasn't worked followed by mad googling to find all the info on people who have a bleed every month even when pregnant. Obviously, it has always been the former for me...

    Hi Vic and Miss B!

    Miss B - hope you are resting up and feeling a bit better today. Fingers crossed you are on your way to a bfp.

    N2L - Have you had any more spotting? I hate when your body is telling you 'bfp' but af goes all random and you are left wondering and hoping you were wrong. I will still keep hoping you are going to get your long awaited bfp.

    Vic - so glad you are feeling better today. Your DH sounds like a gem and its great that you are both keen to continue. It makes it so much easier when your DH is as invested as you. My DH has been so much more support this cycle, checking when my next bt is (even coming along with me yesterday), asking how I am, etc. Last time he was just plane scared and so distant so I'm loving this version!

    Amy - hope your feeling better today.

    Myturn - how are the jabs going? Hopefully everything is going to plan.

    Jane all the best for EPU tomorrow!

    Blossom - how did EPU go? Hopefully you are not too tender and they got some nice and juicy eggs ready for fertilisation!

    Kerbear - Hoping your IUI went well and those swimmers are finding your egg! Here's to a smooth tww for you.

    Liseyt - How did today's bt go?

    Kashby and Mia hope you are travelling well. Thinking of you both.

    Saffy - has af showed yet? Hopefully if not yet, its on its way and you can move full steam ahead into this cycle.

    AFM - cd 15 and I have bt tomorrow. I think if this cycle is not successful we will move straight into another one. How long did you girls try OI (clomid/FSH) before moving on to IUI or IVF? This is our second cycle of OI but in between we have had two monitored cycles with TSI (by accident around my surgery) so all up 4 cycles of TSI. Im going to need to give DH lots of time to accept anything more invasive so hoping to have a bit of a heads up.
    Anyway, I should get back to writing reports! Very much looking forward to meeting Amy_Jellybean this afternoon.

    Vic SO sorry to read your posts from yesterday (sorry been MIA) glad to see you're feeling better about things though.
    Its SO typical of all the girls in here we dust ourselves off and "get back in the race" as Frankie would say, good stuff

    N2L - It aint over! This is my first time with IVF but when I conceived naturally I had some BL (small amount) at the start so

    Jane sounds awesome good stuff!!

    to everyone else I have missed

    AFM- just plodding along and waiting for the next step, 3 days to go and I get the synorel and puregon

    Keta I did 4 months Clomid and 6 months OI before "graduating" to IVF.

    Blossom - awesome news about your 5 eggies. Sending loads of fertilisation vibes your way.

    Hi everyone else I'm on my phone again so a little hard for personals.

    ATM Bt in the morning to see if I am any closer to ovulating. Fingers crossed that we can get this show on the road!

    Hi all!!!

    Vic - I'm glad you are feeling better babe - isn't it a nice feeling when DH is on bord I get the feeling that you were worried he wouldn't cope - he has and he did! he'll be fine! Yay for that! (at least!!) If you are prepared to take control of the list... I am happy for you to do it but must admit if you hadn't popped on monday, I would have done it then - shame there's not an easier way to keep it up to date

    N2L - I'm glad the support is helpful... weird that AF arrived and disappeared.... I guess all you can do is wait for BT..... maybe eptopic??

    Jane - great work! hope those little eggies get their act together and EPU goes well. Good luck.... is it tomorrow??

    Keta - I only did clomid for 6 month - then the FS said, if I'm not preg that way, then it has to be IUI or IVF.... we discussed the pros and cons of each... and went for IVF - higher chance of success I figured (10% IUI to 30% IVF for me)... and as we could afford it, we went for it....

    Miss B - Crinone is def a bit grotty.... hope at least you are feeling okay - I'm sending sticky vibes your way. one word.... aircon....

    Amy_Jellybean - a pain you've had a reaction to the puregon! although I haven't, i did find yesterdays jab a bit stingy... and it usually isn't - which surprised me, and meant I was a bit anxious this morning... it was okay though.... maybe you just got a tender spot??? Somehow the bruises seem a bit like a 'badge of honour' don't they

    Meg76 - Dr Google is dangerous!!! but in the TWW - he's my best friend...!!!

    Saffy - FX AF arrives soon! xxx

    Blossom - woo hoo to 5 eggies sleep well and hopefully they will fertilise and grow nicely. FX!!

    Mia - Boo to waiting!! yay to not long now!!

    Hi Missren! I missed your post before I saved mine! sorry!! Welcome!!

    Liseyt, Kerbear, Revind, Janie, Kashby and anyone else I've missed....

    AFM - just stabbing away.... belly pain seems to have dissipated... hope that doesn't mean they are not working!!! I am starting to think about ET, and wondering about the last cycle, and what didn't work.....
    wondering why I started bleeding when I was taking crinone?? If I am taking progesterone to mimic early preg, surely AF shouldn't have arrived at all??? How does that work?? How do they know if I am producing enough progesterone in the first place????

    I feel good about this round.... always had '2nd cycle would be successful' even before we started..... hopefully I'll be right.... I know I will be devestated if I'm wrong....

    I'll survive..... but I will be devestated.... there is no doubt....
