    Loops- hope you have sorted things out with your DH, theres nothing worse, it makes you feel sick. Its bad when they won't talk about it either, hugs to you hun and hope you are feeling better.xx

    Trishy-stckiest of sticky vibes for you babe xx

    hi to everyone else, sticky vibes to all

    u/s went sensational this morning 12 follies R 13 on the left one follie on the r at 20mm !!!!!! the rest between both sides we on average between 14-16 had a quick call from the nurse my fake baby brain strikes again I forgot to post some paper work so I have to fax it !!! I told her how the u/s went and she got excited and said maybe mon we'll be doing collection she's just waiting on results so can't wait for the phone call this mornings jab went well no pain at all.
    Saffy: I haven't had any symptoms this time apart from being cranky lol but from past experience symptoms can show their ugly head after maybe two days people vary obviously but yeah... hoppe your fine with it all

    Trishy ~ Sounds like you have a good 1 there. I know how it feels to get none to freeze though. But you still have this one and this one could be the one!!
    LOL about the sticky song. Dont worry ive done similar things like rubbing my belly and saying stuff. DH looks at me like im an idiot LOL

    Kass ~ thanks for the hugs and thoughts - DH and I are ok now. How are things with you?

    Aim ~ How are you feeling - any signs? Best of luck for Wednesday

    Saffy ~ GL with the jabbing. I did some at work and the 1st couple were hard as I was so nervous but it got easier. I just went out into back staff bathroom which can be locked. Hope all goes well hun!

    True ~ that is excellent hun - super excited for you guys. Hope you get lots at EPU and some to freeze. xoxo

    Hi to everyone - hoping you are all well xoxo

    AFM ~ Feeling much better today - DH and I are good again. Turns out it was a bit of a mis-understanding as well as a bit of jealousy i think. I just wanna get over it and move forward. Because DH was finally talking to me we were able to discuss finances and IVF so I think we will be ok to come up with the money - DH is pretty confident. Think AF is def on the way and will be here by Sun/Mon. I did POAS on Wed night which was BFN

    Hi girls,

    Thanks for the well wishes

    Yeah I have had a few little signs, bad cramping on day 6 and 7 (4 days after transfer of a 3 day embie), bright blue veins over my (.Y.) and the other night I was cooking Spaghetti for dinner, went to eat it could not stand the taste of it. DH reckons there was nothing wrong with it but I couldnt stomach it

    Ill probably do a POAS on Sunday morning which will be 12 days.

    True that's great news hopefully all those follies growing will mean lots of eggs to fertilise

    loops so glad you are feeling better about things nothing worse than mis communication with our DH's as if we didn't have enough to worry about already. Glad to hear that you will probably be doing another cycle again soon.

    Amy so hope that all these signs turn out to be positive for you.

    AFM well I had another BFN this cycle so I'm back in here. I've got one frostie left and I've decided to let me body regulate this month and then do it all again next month. So for the next six weeks its all about eating right working out and trying to loose afew kilos as well as my head being in the right place again

    Loops - glad things are better - now isn't the time for extra stress!
    Terry - sorry this wasn't the one, hope the next 6 weeks go quickly
    Amy - it all sounds promising! See you in TWW soon
    Saffy - good luck with the jabs - I've never noticed any side effects, although this round I was really sleepy by the last couple of days. Might be totally unrelated though!

    Hello!

    Hello lovely ladies!

    Hope everyone is doing well.
    True Blue: GL for transfer tomorrow, I will cross all my fingers and toes for you!
    Loops: October is not too far away and it will all be happening beofre you know it! GL!
    Kass: I hope your transfer went well. Can't wait to hear your results!
    Amy: Those symptoms you mentioned all sound really promising. I really hope it works for you first time!
    Terry: So sorry about your BFN - good idea to focus on your health and yourself for a few eeeks and then hopefully your next cycle will be the one that stix!
    Tru Blue: Thats fantastic news about your ultrasound! Hopefully you'll be in tww soon.
    Saffy: I started jabs on the same day as you (aug 26th). Hopefully we will be finding out good news close together!
    AFM: As I mentioned, I have been jabbing with Gonal F since last Thurs and have another scan this Thurs to see how many follies I have made and we will go from there. Can't wait! I have found the injections to be alright. I'm a bit moody and having a few headaches but I think thats due to the Synarel spray.
    Quick question: For those of you that have been through IVF - what did they say on your first scan to check how many follies? Did you have to go away and do more injections for a bit or were they happy to arrange a trigger shot time straight away?
    Thanks lovelies, talk soon xxx

    Morning ladies-

    Dannigirl- great! Happy we are cycle buddies I get headaches ( vile one all day Sat) and moodiness too, also exhausted, which are all side effects I can put up with as I thought I would be a psycho on the drugs so am happy I'm not. My scan is on Friday, so you will know before me, hope its good news for both of us!!

    Trueblue- for today hun, hope it goes really well x

    Loops- good news about the cost, when do you start the pill?

    Kass- hope all went well with the transfer

    Terry- so sorry to hear that,

    Amyjellybean- sounds promising for you FX

    AFM- went to goldclass last night and had to run out in the middle of the movie to do my jab, went ok so am confident about doing it at work tonight. DH was trying to talk me into just doing it in the cinema but it was too dark to dial up the dose!!

    to all

    True ~ I feel your pain hun - I know how hard it is to try and keep positive. Hope you start feeling better soon. Hope you guys were able to enjoy a night away and thinking of you today, xoxo

    Danni-girl ~ thanks hun, i think the time will go pretty quick as I'll be doing the needles etc. I hope you have lots of great follies developing. I had headaches with the Synarel also - hope they arent too bad. After the 1st scan I think I did couple of normal needles and then did trigger night before EPU. Yes they will probably tell you straight away if you need another scan and when. All the best!

    Saffy ~ I start the pill 2nd day after AF arrives. Im still hoping she wont arrive at all but I do think she is just around the corner, I suppose its not over until the fat lady sings.
    Wow at the cinema - good on ya! GL with it all and for you.
