I'm really glad to hear things are going well for you, Laney. Keep up posted, I want to know how you're doing all the way until that bubs is born. :)

Diana, good luck for tomorrow. Hope you've got loads of nice ripe eggs for harvesting :-)
Laney, great news about your champion little man. Could you see him wiggling about? Oh that is so sweet.
Beata, I check everything! Only because I'm a control freak. I think I might've O'd yesterday. It's possible to O twice in one cycle isn't it? Because I think I have. Oh well, the more eggs the merrier!
Jo, wow 30 weeks at last. Seems such a long time since you had to go into hospital for bedrest. You're on the home stretch now! And yes, put those stories out of your mind. They're not yours.
Hugs to all.
laney huge congrats on the fantastic scan well done .
Hi Girls,
Dee, how did you go today with the scan? I hope you got some answers with Chloe's test results hun. Can you fill me in a bit more with your IVF treatment? Are the medications you're taking tablets or jabs?? Are they to get your lining ready for transfer? I'm guessing you've got frozen embies for transfer?? Sorry, you might have told us but I forgot...also sorry for poking so much :redface:
Laney, I'm just so happy everything is going great with bub. Keep up the good work and wishing you a smooth road from here on!
Diana, only one more sleep till harvest time! Remember to take it easy tomorrow afterwards, you'll be at home resting anyway. What time is your egg collection? Fingers and toes crossed for lots of good eggies :pray:
Lan, I'm a control freak too....can be frasturating at the best of times. I am working on letting go a bit though, as I now know things sometimes are out of my control...When I was living on my own I was really bad, but now I have DF and his kids in my life, and suddenly I realise I'm not in as much control as I always have been.....I think that's a good thing. I try and toss things up in the air and see where they land, and then I deal with them.
Hey, if you O'd twice, here's to two chances of catching that sticky egg :pray:!!!!
Teagz, thanks hun. I'm all good now. Little nap did me a world of good :rolleyes:
Tildy, how are your kidneys? Did you sort that out? Hope you're doing OK hun :hug:
Cindee, hope little Miranda is doing well :crossfingers:
Is anyone having any tests soon?????
Hi to everyone else, hope everyone's week is going well.
Love and hugs

Thanks for your positive vibes girls. Had acupuncture this morning so she did her magic on my uterus and general well being as I'm still battling this flu. I am really excited but quite scared at the same time.
Beata, theatre is at 8am. Glad you called the doctor and what you're feeling is part of the healing process. Won't be long now hun, you'll be as good as gold and ready for your FET before you know it. Am starting to cheer you on from now!
Dee, how did you go today?
Laney, what fabulous news. So happy to hear your little man is growing beautifully.
Lan, it is possible to ovulate twice so lots and lots of baby vibes to you. What is your chart doing now? Not that I can interpret them but I like looking at them anyway.
Tildy, hope you're doing better and got your kidney pain sorted out.
Theresa, good to hear you're going well.
BABY VIBES to our other TTCers - Joselyn, Teagz, Megan & Nae, hope you're getting down with it :lol:
Big hugs to our other mammas Sue, Helen, Rozzie and Jo :hug:
Has anyone heard from Paula? Hope she is ok and just busy getting a nice round belly.
Back tomorrow night for an update on how many of my big beautiful follicles turn out to be little babies :)
Diana - GOOD LUCK for tomorrow!!!! Can't wait to hear that you got a good number of eggies. How long does it take for you to then find out how many embryos you have for implanting/freezing? And does DH need to also "do his bit" tomorrow morning too? :lol:(sorry, don't know much about IVF)
Laney - that is fantastic news about your scan. Sounds like things are going brilliantly and I have everything crossed that you continue to get good news at all your scans.
Hammi - thank you for your commentI needed to hear that and you are so right.:
And yes, put those stories out of your mind. They're not yours.
When are you back at work Beata?
I am dropping in to my work tomorrow to finalise all my leave and clean up my desk etc -all the things I didn't actually get a chance to do before being whisked off for bedrest. It will be good to see everyone again. I can't believe I haven't been there for 9 weeks! And won't be back for about a year or so. Am dying for some goss and conversation though - your world becomes a little insular when stuck alone most days with only the net and the TV for entertainment...
Better go and ice the cupcakes I just made. I can't stop eating lately and unfortunately most of it is not good for me! See I really do need to get out of this house!

Hey Lovey's
NaeNae, yeah I wish I could do the cold turkey thing but it sends me on a guilt trip for being mean. I've never been good at putting myself first. Needless to say she has to go, she's just caused to much of a strain on DF and I's relationship. Although, DF is all for giving people second chances... I'm all for my sanity! XD
Theresa, hope all is well for your scan on friday!
Laney, so glad your little boy is going great. Well done! ;)
DD, It's your egg hunt tomorrow! hehe. Fingers crossed! I really hope it's your month this month. :hug:
Lan, definately the more eggs the merrier. Apparently sweet potato assists with ovulation?
Beata, glad you got your nap! I feel like one at the moment actually. I forgot to take my in-liven and vit's the morning. It's amazing how much difference they can make to your energy levels... and I always thought I ate well enough to get enough of these vitimins and what not.
Well, I can't wait to go home. Had enough of work for today! My parents are coming over for dinner so I'm cooking them up a feast which will be nice.. I've become a bit of a loaser, I prefer the company of my parents and fam over that of any of my friends :doh: My 17 year old borther has a better social life than I do!
My strange bleeding happened again today as well. Af stopped on Sunday. Nothing all day monday and then this morning I got a small "gush" of bright red bloody :dunno: I hope it's not something the D&C has done to me... I might have to hassle my poor Dr again. :rolleyes:
Cindee, Miranda is gorgeous! Congratulations and all the best :hug:
hey girls my scan went great :clap:emmy (yes we name our embryo's) should go in on tuesday as long as the defrost process goes all well :pray:
okay as for the questions about ivf yep i'm doing a fet at the moment i'm only on ethinyl oestradiol and cardiprin one tablet each day. starting thursday will be taking those as well as provera 4 times a day (tablet) and progesterone pessary afternoon and night and crinone pessary morning and lunch these are vaginal gels. hope that all makes sense keep the questions coming i don't mind at all.;)
thanks so much for all the well wishes i feel like i can let all my fears out in here and not be judged most of my close friends don't have children yet so is hard for them to understand how badly we won't this. have a lovely night girls.
Hi Girls,
Just popped in to wish Diana good luck for tomorrow's eggie harvest, I hope the procedure goes very well and there's lots of good little eggies to make beautiful little embies!!!! Thinking of you hun, big hugs :hug:
Jo, I'm back in early March, don't want to leave my comfy little house for hard work at the office! Will be good to catch up on the goss though, and see my friends...I've forgotten what they look like LOL! Enjoy your maternity leave, and your little girl :thumbsup:
Teagz, find out what is going on down there if this keeps happening...might just be your cycle, plus you haven't been feeling the best lately. You're a good girl for cooking up a feast for your family, I don't remember the last time I cooked :doh:. Must put that one down on my 'wish' list, DF will be very happy! Big hugs hun :hug:
Big hello and hugs to all our lovely ladies, almost half way through the week now!!
Love and hugs
Beata xxxx
Dee, that is fabulous news hun. I will be thinking of you next week for your transfer. Will keep everything crossed for you for a successful thawing out! I will be in the same boat in May (hopefully) as my little embie will be de frosted too. I hope and pray (for us both) they come through OK!
And thanks for answering my questions hun, I only did one stimulated cycle of IVF, so I'm not familiar with the other part to it, which is the frozen embie transfer and what happens with that. Thanks hun, you're one step ahead of me and that helps me to understand the process better :)
Love b xxxx
Well, today I have taken a personal day from work! Yesterday arvo I could feel my throat playing up again and I'm 99.99999% sure that I now have thrush back bugger it. I feel like I need a month off work just to get my body back in order and concentrate on that and not anything else but, I don't see tha happening anytime soon so I day is just going to have to do!
Also, some gorgeous soul has given my a random act of kindness and a platnum membership... so, i have no idea who it is was but to cover all basis thankyou to whoever you are! :hug: Small things like that just make you realise that there are wonderful people out there that would do anything for you, even if they are strangers almost. I feel so lucky to have found this wonderful site where I can pour my heart out at any time of the day and there are always people who are there and understand what Im feeling and also others that I can hopefully offer some support and comfort to :hug: You girls are all so amazing and don't let anyone else tell you otherwise!
I did a post and lost it!! Agrrrrr!!!!! BB has crashed heaps on me today....
Teagz, you poor love. You're not having a good run..big hugs. When you see your doc next ask if there is something you can take to keep on top of the thrush. I don't know if yakult would help or drinking cranberry juice??? I used to get colds all the time, and then I started drinking yakult every day, and I take a super garlic and horseraddish tablet once aday (v. potent). I don't get sick much at all these days (unless someone at the office sneezes on me), and I don't get thrush unless I'm on super duper strong antibiotics (which I have been on twice after my placenta was removed manually).
I hope you poor wee body bounces back to good health very soon :comfort:
I think I also got given the random act of kindness & a platinum memb. (I think, I'm not sure!!!!) but if I have, I want to thank the beautiful and generous person who gave it to me. I am very honoured and speechless (which does not happen a lot LOL) thank you from the bottom of my heart. This site, and particularly, this thread, has helped me in so many ways since I lost Joshua. I wouldn't be where I am today, if it wasn't for you girls. Thanks so much for all your support :grouphug:
A special hi to Diana, I hope you're resting heaps today hun, you've had a big day. Thinking of you and keeping my fingers and toes crossed for lots of healthy, strong and beautiful sticky embies :pray:
Hello & big hugs to all my beautiful BB friends
Love
Beata xxx
You sure have, Beata!
Jeez, it was very quiet in here yesterday!
hey girls!
well first apologies for being MIA again! I have been having quick sneaks on to see how you all have been but then i have'nt been back on for about a week now!
secondly -so much has happened that i'm sitting here quite overwhelmed at all the posts! You girls have been busy but i am very happy to see some good stuff coming out too! laney! Congrats on another great scan...things are looking wonderful for you and bubs! You are my new inspiration!!! And the other jo -you are doing amazing!!! So i may grab a little luck from you too! and i'm joining in the chorus! you will bring bubs home!!!
i can't do anymore personals as i would be here until lunchtime! but i have read them all and if i get your stories mixed up moving forward its cause too much has been written. but thats what we're here for right???
As for me, this month, well a few days before valentines Dh decided it was time to TTC again. That night i was a mini bundle of nerves eventhough its something i really want only due to my history but i have been in a happier positive state since. Which comes as a huge surprise!Once i get that BFP it may be a different story tho....we'll see.....
take care girls!!

hey girls just checking in to see how diana's going hope your feeling okay chick. you will have to let us know how you went. when do you have you embryo implanted we will be very close in tests dates i guess. Teagz hope your feeling better today hun. hi to everyone else hope you all have a great day.
Hi girls
13 eggs collected yesterday
Scientist just called to say:
6 fertilised
1 is touch and go - may or may not fertilise
2 not fertilised
4 not mature
She will be calling again tomorrow for another update on how these 6, possibly 7 little babies are going.
At this stage, looks like transfer will be on Monday.
What do you think?
Lots of love
D x
I don't know anything much about IVF Diana but those numbers sound pretty good to me! :clap: I know a girl who went in and she could only get 2 eggs collected, of which only 1 fertilised so your numbers look pretty good in comparison :D
Can't wait to hear what the IVF experienced gals think x
