Not long now Africa! FX you get your mini miracle

Hi Del glad your moving on and getting some answers.

Ive not had a great day my nain passed away this morning which was a huge shock! I was supposed to be visiting her today to update her on the consultation yesterday which was to move forward with IVF. I had previously said if I ever had a little girl I would call her Jessica. My Nains name was Jessica so it seems so fitting now

AFM- AF was due today but not showed so i assume tomorrow as still getting bad cramps an feel ratty! lol. Just making the tea so i can take some up for my dad whilst he is recovering from his op. Got Bridesmaids for us to watch later as dh is off out with the lads on the town xxx

Hi to everyone else x

 

[MrsE75]

Hi ladies sorry I've been AWOL been a mad 10 days.

Melbram - so sorry to hear about your nan funny how we never expect our close family to go anywhere and shakes you to the core when they do. Hope you are feeling ok

Ladies - gosh its har to keep up with who is doing what. Can't believe some are about to give birth - very strange.

Afm - well negotiating redundancy hopefully will be sorted today and will be unemployed after Monday. However gives me the time and no stress to give my IVF 100%. Got needles an first injection on Thursday which seems a bit scary considering I HATE needles!!! Never mind I'm just going to suck it up and trying make a promise that if I don't moan throughout this next few weeks that god will let me be pregnant - thought it was worth a try!!

Been having accu for past 2 weeks plus taking the DHEA not really had many side effects other than skin a little more oily as is hair and had tonnes of CM an for longer than normal so hoping that's a sign it's soon what it needs to do!!

Hope everyone is good and those that have started DR fingers crossed!!

Xx

Ooohhh good luck to you Mrs E & glad you are looking upon the redundancy in a positive light, I really wish you all of the luck in the world

I had an appt today with the Dr Gazvani who did my surgery in January & I was soooo looking forward to telling him that he'd worked a miracle & we were pg... but, before I had chance he basically said that when he was operating to remove the cyst he had found that I had severe endometriosis, so bad that it had stuck my ovaries to my pelvic wall & that although they had initially thought it was my OH issues causing our problem, that he thought even without that I would have real trouble conceiving naturally...

At that point I said... but I'm 8 weeks today but he just looked shocked & kept saying "but I don't think that's possible" I had to get my scan out to show him.

He was really pleased for us in the end but had to get another consultant in to check that they had the right patient as he said it was less than a 0.5% chance that this could happen given both of our problems!!

However, after leaving the office and going back to work, I told my workmates what had happened & they asked if it would cause any problems with the pregnancy, I hadn't even asked that & now I'm googling & it seems to just be a minefield of different information

Basically it looks at though there is an increased chance of miscarriage, high blood pressure, pre eclampsia and pre term birth! It's just very weird as I have had very light, very regular periods and no period pain ever, whereas a friend of mine in work has endo & has really bad problems every month!

Ah well nothing I can do about it now, what will be will be, I just pray my little flump hangs on.

Wish me luck girls

[BabydustxXx]

Hi ladies hope your all well.

Sarah it was great seeing you today at hc. Sorry i couldnt say goodbyr before i left. Uou had gone in for your drugs app. It was lovely to finally put a face to the name.

Afm the hc are going to ring me later this afternoon and let me know if they want me to stay on burserelin or if i can start stimms on Sat. My lining is not as thin as they would like and i have a few too many cysts on my ovary. Argh!!!!!

Ill be back to update later on today once i have had the calll. Eeek!

 

[africaqueen]

Hi Yasmine, was so nice to finally meet today sorry i missed you. I am sure we will cross paths there very soon tho. Best of luck with your call and i really hope you can start stimms asap. I want us to be pupo together . I start stimms tonight on 6 amps so its all systems go now! really nervous about doing my own injection for 1st time tonight as my best friend did them last time as shes a pro with being diabetic! Im sure after the 1st one il be fine x

Hi to everyone else an has anyone heard from Foxey, Jane or any of the other ladies that arent about so much? hope they are all fine xxx

 

[MrsE75]

Hi ladies I was at HC today too but this afternoon for my needles training. They actually made us do our first injection there and then said tomorrow need to choose a time - said first one cos not already in your system doesn't matter. Actually not as bad as I thought or may be cos nurse was there but think it helped. So we're off but on LP so got about 6 weeks of injections to look forward to!!

Also first day off work part of my garden leave so we celebrated with a nice pub dinner - yummy not on the healthy eating plan but it was a treat!

Glad we're all systems go. Now for our BFP!!
