    Baby Dreamtime - Thank you sweetheart. I'm hoping the EPU will be relatively painless and stress free - It's my first one so maybe I'm being naive, but no point stressing about something I cannot change.

    ET - I believe we are aiming for a day 5 transfer, so if all goes to plan it will be the 15.08.08. But it's all still a bit up in the air until the U/S tomorrow I guess.

    All the best - Not sure if I can stand to wait a whole week to see how things are going for you - oh well - I'll be here when you get back anyway.

    Hi Girls

    Baby Dreamtime- Thanks for thinking of me. I'm certainly doing a lot of relaxing and not much else. Such a beautiful day here...yes I live the same place you do!! What clinic are you at. If you don't want to write here you can PM me. I really wish you all the very best for tomorrow. I understand why you have chosen to thaw all 5 embies. I have a really hard situation now. I have only 1 left and mine tend not to survive the thaw well. The embryologist at my clinic really didn't want to thaw all of them. I had 4 frozen at blastie and they thawed 2 first. They survived the thaw but 1 didn't make it overnight...so they thawed another 1 leaving the solitary 1 on ice. I asked yesterday for my next baby (cause this cycle WILL work!!) could I do a stim cycle and they said no...got to use frostie 1st. I have had a cancelled cycle before where my last frosties didn't survive the thaw and it's heartbreaking. It's also really really hard with work cause I can't do my job after a TF. I wish I wasn't thinking about next cycles. I AM being really positive about this cycle but I also need to be realistic so I don't crash and burn ever again. I'll be checking up on you tomorrow to see how everything went, but enjoy the acup beforehand. 10am is a great time for a TF. this is your time

    Nixon- All the very best for the US. I totally understand the excitement that comes with your 1st IVF cycle. I still get excited now and I'm on cycle 5!! Let us know the results.

    AFM, relaxing, resting, chilling out!! Very hard day on the lounge!!

    Hugs Bel

    Hi Bel,
    Glad to hear you are relaxing, what a day for it. I am at John Flynn with Dr Dutt, what about you? I have heard that he can be a bit conservative, but seems happy to transfer 2embies for me, and I feel good about him. He has been listening and changes/tweeks my protocol each time round (gosh it feels like trial and error sometimes) so I am hoping this will be the right one.

    I am being positive with you to, this month is the month, no doubt about it!!

    But just for arguments sake, isn't it really up to you what happens with your frostie blastie? There should be no reason that you can't go on to a stim cycle next cycle and leave your frostie there for future. Why do you have to use the frostie first, especially if there are chances of a cancelled cycle. How frustrating. I know what it feels like to just want your best chance every try.

    I agree, this endless counting down hours/days is so hard. And I know what you mean re hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. I guess we just have to have faith that it will be our turn, soon, next month if not this month.

    But, I know it is this month for you!
    Stay positive, fingers crossed, xx
