Hi everyone! Phew, I don't know where to start. I don't come on here for a couple of weeks and come back to find Inky with a BFP! That's fantastic news!!! I really really hope everything goes well for you as you deserve it. You must be over the moon!
So sorry so see we have new members though as it's certainly not a thread any of us want to join.
Wallie - it sounds like you had a real rollercoaster of a cycle. I remember waiting for our fertilisation report and thinking that it had never even occured to me before that we might not get to the 2ww. All I wanted was to get to that and have some hope. When we did and it then failed, it's just the worst feeling ever. So sorry it didn't work out for you.
Mrs Major, Poohbear and raf-wife - welcome. Again, although it's not a thread anyone wants to join, it really is a huge support to speak to others who are going through the same.
Poohbear - I notice you were at Seacroft in Leeds. That's where we had our failed cycle in December. What did you think of it? We had no major complaints (apart from the fact they'd only put one embryo back) but we aren't going back for our second go. We're going to Care in Manchester, which I'm feeling really positive about.
Did you say you are going to Care Notts? I've heard great things about Care Notts, but we're going to M'cr as they're trialling the new IMSI technique which is meant to improve chances if you have MF.
Just a quick update from me - We went to the open night at Care M'cr and I LOVED it there. I was hoping we could start in April, but just found out Friday that there's a 5-week waiting list for an initial consultation so looks like I might have left it a bit late for that, so more WAITING!! I sent off our referral yesterday, so hoping the appt will come through soon.
Not sure if you remember, but I had to fight to get my tubes checked because the gyno said there was no point as we had MF. He eventually agreed and I've been super nervous about it since. I was meant to have it done last Monday but had to cancel (long story, but I wasn't able to take the antibiotic as I had an appt in London about my other bladder problem and as he needed samples ABs would have messed up the results). So I have another month to wait now!!! I wanted to buy one of the Clearblue digi ovulation thingys, but now I'm worried I'll jinx it if I buy one before my HSG. I never even thought about my tubes over the past year but now I'm convinced they'll be blocked and I can't stop stressing about it. Every single twinge I get I think it's because my tube is blocked. I also keep thinking that, because I had so much bleeding after egg collection (I think it was bleeding from my ovaries as I had so many follicles) the blood might have blocked my tubes. Do you think I'm going mad? I know I probably am, as I know we need ICSI anyway, but I don't think I could bear it if my tubes were blocked too.
Anyway, going to leave you and I'll try check back soon instead of leaving it so long again.
Inky - keep us posted on how you get on!

Ps - might have to upload a pic of my Freddie soon as we seem to be the cat loving thread!
