AQ I have no sympathy for myself what so ever! I thought it would be a clever idea after my 2 hour gym session to do a Pilates class - I'm proper suffering as a result! Trying to get healthy so my recovery times quicker for op in may but defiantly over did it

 

[Lindylou]

MrsE - hugs and hope you are feeling a bit better.

Hi ladies, well as expected a missed miscarriage was confirmed today. We could actually see a yolk sac today so it's encouraging that we got that far. We stop the meds tonight so hopefully it will pass naturally but I've got an appointment at the women's for a week today if it doesn't. Follow up booked in for 2 weeks and next cycle penned in for possibly July xxxx

 

[Lovetoeatcake]

Oh Bugs, i am so sorry.

 

[Lindylou]

Bugs- it is devastating news to get and I know you cannot prepare for it. Sending you huge hugs. You are amazing taking the good from this cycle and already looking towards your next go straight away. I pray you get your BFP soon , you deserve it. Xxx

 

[MrsE75]

Bugs I'm so sorry for what you are going through nothing is much consolation. Have a nice glass of wine or whatever you enjoy the most.

Will you stick with Care for your next cycle?

Afm not sure if all te hormones but I've come out in like a heat rash - I know how is that possible in this Baltic weather!!! Come out in pimples on my back, I am due on this week but never had this reaction so guessing its all the drugs! I'm in a right pickle we have a frozen Blasto which we can put back prob cycle next month. Or while I've still got eggs do I wait to afford another fresh cycle and then have more in the bank for future? However it will prob take us 6 mth to save save up for the next fresh cycle I worry about waiting an not havin eggs?!

 

[cvaeh]

Bugs- so sorry that it wasn't better news for you. Big hugs x x

Mrse- It must be a difficult decision for you to make. What has your consultant suggested?

Hi to everyone else, sorry for such a short post.

Afm- i have done four days of menopur and feel nothing so hope something is happening in there. x x x

 

[bugs]

Cvaeh I never used to feel anything when stimming so I wouldn't worry too much I'm sure everything is cooking nicely.

MrsE that is a tough decision but I think I would give that frostie a go. Some people react better to a fet as your body is a lot calmer and had a chance to settle but I understand that you're anxious over egg quality.

Yeah as long as Mr Patel can come up with a different protocol we're gonna go with care again I really can't fault them it's just my body that isn't playing ball. We've just booked 2 weeks in Fuertaventura in June ready to go again in July so we're gonna spend the next few months getting back to normal and fit so at least we've something to look forward too xxx

Hi everyone else xxxx

 

[bugs]

Shelly hope your transfer went ok today xxx

 

[Likklegemz]

Bugs I'm ever so sorry. I felt for sure it was your time. Words can't express how sorry I am and I'm thinking of you and your husband. Big hugs

Mrse - if be tempted to give your frozen one a go, it's cheap and as others have said it can work. Ok at jules - she got twins with one frozen!

Shelley hope transfer went well

Jamie how you feeling?

AQ, Lindy, caveh and everyone else (sorry for lack of personals) hope your all ok.

Afm I've got a sinus infection snivelling like you wouldn't believe. On the positive side though, my husband has got a job interview on Tuesday. Keeping fingers crossed so there's a chance that he may be able to come home forever! So excited at the thought, hate this living apart thing for work

Hugs x x xx

 

[Lindylou]

Hope interview goes well Likkle x

 

[harley81]

Bugs- really sorry to hear your news, but yey for getting so far, I hope next time you get your take home

Hi to everyone else, hope you're all well

It's been a strange day, it was my aunties funeral. Very sad, but it was such a lovely service, I think she had a really nice send off.

I also got my period today (sorry if tmi!), so I rang the unit and my baseline scan is tomorrow. Then scans next mon and fri, and if everything goes well egg collection the following week. I can't believe things are moving so quickly, very scary, and a bit exciting

 

[Jamie_lee_c_]

Bugs I'm sorry to hear that, June will be here before you know it x
Hope the interview goes well for your husband gemz and hope you get well soon
I'm feeling ok thanks, just hate waiting now, another 2 weeks today until I go in! I think it's because throughout the whole process I was always in and out of hospital and taking my medication daily, but now I'm not doing anything.. And it's strange
Hope everyone ok xx

 

[rachel543_uk]

Hi ladies

Well weve just got our appointment for our consultation on 14th march and just wondered what to expect from then on and timescales.

Woul be really nice to get to know peopl in the same bat visiting the same hospital.

Good luck to everyone.

 

[Jamie_lee_c_]

Hi and welcome Rachel, is this your first consultation? Hav you been to the PAtient information evening? X

 

[rachel543_uk]

Yeah we have been to the evening and had bloods etc done just waiting for this now ahhh we can't wait!!!

Sounds abit crazy when I'm petrified of needles!!

 

[Jamie_lee_c_]

It runs pretty fast from here then if all bloods come back fine your good to go,
I'm pretty sure, and one of the other ladies can correct me if I'm wrong but after the consultation they will tell you to ring up on the first day of your period to get your drug appointment,
I was petrified of needles but done them all my self and it was so easy, I hate getting bloods or whatever took by someone else tho.. Strange
