2011 - The Year Of The Baby!!

[mrssunshine78]

We only told them cos my parents know we've had ivf and they knew when I was testing so we decided to tell hubby's parents as we'd feel bad telling mine when we hadn't told his. Get to tell my parents on Thursday, they're out in the middle east at the moment as that's where dad was working.

I'm trying to be positive about my pains, it must be my uterus expanding, I've no reason to think there's anything wrong with beanie.

It's good that you're feeling a bit rubbish, I know it prob doesn't feel good, but it's good your hormones r making u feel like that. I was tired yesterday and have been again today, but fine other than that

First night shift for me tomorrow not looking forward to it!

 

[rachelle1975]

Must admit would have loved to tell our rellies but dad took the m/c badly last year especially after losing mum & MIL was OTT and got very out of hand. This time they can Deffo wait!!

Good luck with your shifts, I'm now sitting in a bubble & protected from bad people

 

[mrssunshine78]

It must have been a really tough time, can't even imagine how u must have felt Don't blame u for waiting to tell them, although I'm sure these are sticky little beans (yes both of them lol)

Hi, hope every one is ok

Congrats Sunshine and Rachelle on getting your 2-3 weeks, hope you're both feeling ok and not sick xx

Wallie - Hope that EC goes really well for you and that they get some lovely eggs xx

Silly - Hope that you're Af pains are calming down for you xx

I am ok, was a bit of a mess Friday and cried a few tears but pulled myself together since then and trying to be realistic. No spotting yet and if I didn't know what the results of my last bloods was I really wouldn't be any the wiser. I have no idea what is happening inside me but hoping that today's bloods will give me a clearer picture.

I can't help but think i should be spotting and cramping by now?

[mrssunshine78]

I hope everything goes ok with your bloods today mischief, hoping your results look good today

 

[SillyMoo]

Mischeif, hope it all goes well today hun, please let us know as we are here for you either way. I have everything crossed that the numbers will have gone up nicely xxx

 

[rachelle1975]

:wave: mischief, wishing you all the luck in the world today.
Don't focus on the spotting business, unless you have stopped the progesterone you won't have any bleeding or spotting (i was only on 1x400 last time). Equally i hope today is the very best news for you

 

[Misscheifmake]

Thanks for the wishes. Appointment not till later today so don't think we will find out the level until tomorrow.

I dunno - I had bloods done at 1 and then results at 2.30..... but thats a private hospital.

 

[rachelle1975]

How are you doing Silly? Are you going to have a diary so that I can harass you? How's the pains now?

 

[SillyMoo]

Howdy - I am good thanks, feel fine. IVF, whats that? I think we might need IVF some time in the future when I am a grown up

Pains all gone and life can get back to normal again....

We wrote letters to the Chief Exec of our PCT, our MP and the Health Secretary about the lack of funding for IVF referrals, that was quite therapeutic.

Hows your bubble looking, have your decorated it nicely?

Thanks Silly, I hope they'll get back to me today but the appointment is at 4pm so wasnt sure if too late. Fingers crossed as just want to know one way or another now! I havent touched the wine yet but the bottle keeps looking at me and waving

Yep mine is also a private clinic, just my NHS funded attempt.

Hope you're ok xx

Being grown up so overrated... i think the only reason my toyboy hubby married me is due to my immaturity and the fact i don't act my age... Even my sister who is 2.5 years younger gets referred to as the 'older sensible one'....

Glad you are working on your therapy and feeling 'normal'.. whatever that is! Normal is also something overrated.. i'm currently swinging between being happy and being a lunatic ... i do like a good variation though :rof:

Bubble is looking good although a bit boring... there's not much for me to do at present apart from p*ss off my colleagues by sending them to court with my cases....

You need a diary... everyone needs a good stalker and since i'm down with the legal side of it i can avoid prosecution... honest m'lord....

Really hope that they don't keep you waiting mischief, will keep it all crossed for you for later - perhaps they can do it whilst you wait? I know the Lister did a turn around in an hour once and even the EPU at Epsom Hospital did a 40 minute turnaround on my bloods last year... i was gobsmacked at that one!

 

[mrssunshine78]

i'm sure you shouldn't have to wait too long, i'm in an nhs lab, and they can have the results ready within an hour, and thats on top of all of the other million and one GP samples that we process, so am thinking a private hospital lab should be a bit quicker, i really hope so, its not fair to keep you waiting even longer

 

[Misscheifmake]

Evening, well level is down to 1 so i am officially out. Got a councelling session booked in for tomorrow so that should help. But i think i came to terms with it over the weekend and really am ok, sad but ok.

So onwards and upwards and me and Silly are going to kick it on our next round xx

But i might stay around and see how you guys get on if that's ok? I need to see some successful bump stories to know that this IVF madness does work xx

Plus i'm also very excited for both of you!! x

 

[rachelle1975]

Mischief your PMA is amazing but I'm still so sorry it happened

Second times a charm I promise you.. I bet your second cycle kicks ass with tons of eggs, embryos & awesome transfers!! When do you think you might go again?

Counselling is a good thing

 

[Misscheifmake]

Well i thought i only got one NHS cycle but she mentioned two . And as long as the consultant is happy i can start again in 2 cycles time.

In the mean time i signed up for that 10k and going to order some lovely new trainers.

I think i was a scary monster over the weekend and was incredibly sad and cried buckets. But decided last night that this wasn't going to steal my sparkle - and it won't.

Now is the time to make you pregnant ladies jealous cause going to eat lots of prawns and drink lots of lovely red wine!!

x

 

[rachelle1975]

Now if it was pizza & champers I'd be jealous

Good for you, when's the 10k?

I think you need a ticker with some sparkle you know.. And a diary so I can find you!

 

[mrssunshine78]

Misscheif I'm so sorry, you've got an amazing attitude though I'm sure next time will work out for you. Glad you're gonna train for the 10K exercising really does make u feel better as I'm sure the counselling session will. Am thinking of u and your Hubby

Good luck and yeah u have to stick around xx
