BDT - my heart sank also hearing your news. So sorry that happened for you. I felt so positive that this was your natural miracle. Looking at those 2 gorgeous girls, you know what you are capable of, and it's not over for you by a long shot. As I said to you before, you have been one of the main inspirations that has kept me going on my fertility journey, particularly through 2 harrowing miscarriages last year. Enjoy your trip to Europe and take care of yourself xxxxxxx

JBM - yay - you go girl! That's such great news for you.

OneDay - congrats on the little girl bub. Aw, love girls. So easy to shop for, as I am finding out - since we are having a boy!!! Nothing much out there for boys.

Kaybee - I've got my blood sugar test next week. I can't stop eating sugar though, and now I think I'm getting thrush.....................

Grub, Poss, Trishy - hey girls

AFM - holding my cousins hand through her first IVF cycle. She has only enough money for one stim cycle and has literally not listened to any of the tips or guidance I gave her, nor did she pay much attention to the info sheets her clinic gave her. It's been very frustrating as she believed she would get loads of blasties and fall straight away. Out of 15 eggs, they put one back and she got none to freeze. If her bub on board doesn't work she's out until she can save enough money in another 12 months time, by which time she'll be 40!!! I so wanted to pass on all the things I've learnt that no one told me so she could get her best chance with this one shot. Particularly since her and her partner have tried naturally for 10 years already with only one early miscarriage in that whole time.....................so girls, I'm feeling frustrated and under-appreciated. The barrage of questions from her as the reality of it is becoming apparent is killing me, since I briefed her so thoroughly. Aaaaaaargh!
Me and bubs are good though
