2011 - The Year Of The Baby!!

[mrssunshine78]

Hi all.... just wondering if I could maybe join you please? I'm on day 6 of DR now and thoroughly overwhelmed by the whole process! It's our first cycle.

Hi mrs major, this process is completely overwhelming, I've found the it all quite surreal like it's happening to someone else! Good luck

Hey mrssunshine :wave: I'll have to put back due to my age, did 2 last time as well. Fingers crossed!! Looks like the drug change and tweak improved the egg quality

Just realised that i've re-iterated Sunshine's words - copyright!

Yay - Rachelle - fabaroo fert rate, congratulations !! What a relief huh? Now for the wait til saturday

Welcome mrs_major :wave: - I agree with the other girls, its the most surreal experience and totally overwhelming, but hopefully totally worth it! Hope you arent suffering with too many side-effects.

Nothing to report from me, going slowly insane here and work isnt distracting me enough!!

 

[mrssunshine78]

how many days are you girls taking off work? i was off yesterday and today, and not sure whether to go back tomorrow or not?

lol at misscheif!!

i'm assuming you're 35 rachelle? i'm 33 next month, and that was part of the reason i went for 2

 

[rachelle1975]

Yup, 36 this year. Last cycle was just before my bday but as they were grade 2 and not grade 1 they put 2 back. Deffo 2 back this time

Glad I took today off, did some washing & housework this morning & now feel v bloated, sore & have some old spotting. Clinic are still worried about OHSS so I'm on my second ltr of fluids & should have done 3-4 by the end of the day might go back to work Thursday.

Last time I took 2 weeks sick from work as although restricted duties (detective in MET) it's still stressful. This time I may go back 4 days after transfer if hubby let's me! Have ordered a ton of comedies to keep me smiling!!

 

[SillyMoo]

I just wanted to tell you something that i forgot to let you know earlier, had chillies with dinner last night which i chopped up and then (4hours later) popped in the old Cycolgest .....ooooooo, that was an interesting experience!

 

[rachelle1975]

God I just laughed so much I think I peed a little

Omg! is that what they recommend at your clinic?!

Rachelle your job must be really stressful, no wonder u had whole 2 wk wait off last time

X

 

[rachelle1975]

Chilli bum bullets.... Do you think it'll catch on?

Occupational health remove me from
'customer facing' but my DS thinks that's a cue for me to interview rape victims... I like living in my bubble so if I go back it's for coffee, chatting & little else

 

[SillyMoo]

Rachelle, you have such a cool job! Although I dont think I would be v. good interviewing rape victims and have a lot of respect for you with that. Like the idea of going back for biccies and chats though.

I am a project manager yawntastic and with so many men i cant really talk to them about whats going on, it would be too intimate!!

I wouldnt recommend chilli bum candles but you never know perhaps the kids did??

 

[rachelle1975]

Ah but silly if you want to freak them out just explain the IVF in minute detail... I do that when I want peace & quiet

Project Mngr must be interesting, pre police I worked for BP & got involved with their projects etc. Police is interesting, used to work for child abuse team which was rewarding, now it's violence drugs & murder!!

 

[SillyMoo]

DH works at BP in Sunbury - is that where you used to work? What made you change to go into the Police, thats quite a difference?!

 

[rachelle1975]

I worked in leathered due to their project with KBR/Halliburton.

I got bored, wanted a challenge.. Plus I thought it would be like The Bill... how wrong was I!!!

 

[SillyMoo]

OMG, DH worked there for a bit in about 2001! Weird.

Were you disappointed in the shoe choices? Doc Martens are so out of date now arent they??

Still impressed, I have had my life on hold a bit with TTC, i didnt want to move into a new area of work and then have to leave it on maternity as soon as I had made the jump. Thats my biggest regret as we have been trying for 6 years now

lol i like that!

i work in a path lab, unfortunately (or fortunately depending how u look at it) its at the hospital i'm having my treatment, so get my bloods done fast, but am thinking now that most people know i'm having ivf. which is not so good. A girl in sonography said she thought my job would be like csi!!! its so not!

you both sound like you have interesting jobs, although i don't think i could cope with speaking to rape victims and stuff. i agree tea and chatting is high on my list to do when i go back to work!

xx

 

[rachelle1975]

Tea & chatting is good

Yep the uniform leaves a lot to be desired.. Simon Cowell trousers & hitec magnum boots! I became a detective in 2006 so it's all suits & heels... Or in my case 50s style dresses! I love to be different!

Work knowing us crap but if your IVF works & I very much hope it will, it'll make things easier. I'm guessing path lab means you'll be quite restricted??

Silly, I wanted to move to the murder team in 2006 but put it off due to this ttc lark... What a lot of poo eh?!!!
