Comfy - so sorry to hear about your dad xxx

 

[AngienDaniel]

Star25, my retrieval will be around the middle of January. I don't get my calendar until the start of my next cycle which will be the 31st of December. By my calculations should be the 12th or 13th of January.. When is your retrieval?

Hi, ladies. Hope everyone is doing well!!! January is right around the corner. Af showed for me on Friday so I schedule my biopsy/scratch for day 21. Kind of nervous! The things we have to go through.

For you ladies that had that done, how was it???

Hi angien, I'm having a frozen embryo transfer so no retrieval this tImeet, it's fine though xx

Beneath, its all moving along for you the scratch is similar to a smear test but I did find it crampy, the cramping only lasts a few seconds though, just take some ibuprofen beforehand, I'm
On last day of provera so expect af in about 5 day's then I'll book my scratch too! Have you heard about the competition results yet? Xx

My antral follicle count was 21, which is very good for me! If my other levels come out okay, I start stims right after Christmas.

My RE did tell me there will be some cramping and I can take Motrin beforehand.

Unfortunately, I didn't win the contest, but they did award all the contestants with 15 percent off their cycle!!!

Firstry, thats great! Hope stimming goes well for you xx

Beneathe, thats a shame but you got a great bonus! That was good of the clinic even though o think you should have won! Xx

 

[FirstTry]

Beneath: hey, 15% off is nice!

Star: with 8 frosties, you're in pretty good shape! Fingers crossed for your FET.

 

[beneathmywing]

I'll take the 15 percent off over nothing!!!

 

[star25]

I hope so firstry, just hope the first one thaws well, theres only a 10% chance it wont so fingers crossed!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your kind words and for thinking of me. Today I've been trying to make a start on writing my Dad's eulogy but have been procrastinating dreadfully. After stripping most of the wallpaper from the bathroom I've now made a start at typing some things up.

My IVF drugs arrived this morning. Came in a fabulously large box. Hope the rest of my Christmas parcels are less 'stabby.'

Brother and his wife popping by later and then tomorrow DH and I plan a quiet day together. His grandad was taken into hospital today so we might have to rush down there sooner than we'd intended (Sun)

Hope you all have a peaceful happy christmas break.

Lots of love and best wishes to you all!

Merry Christmas everyone!!

 

[MoBaby]

star all 4 of my embryos thawed perfectly! They looked like they had never been frozen so I think your chances are great. Actually the one transferred with my LO was one of my last two and it had been thawed, refrozen and thawed again and it looked perfect. FX for you!

Merry christmas to those that celebrate! Im up wrapping gifts, making fudge and planning tomorrows meal.

 

[star25]

Thats good to hear mobaby!

Hope everyone had a happy Christmas, lets hope we do all have a new addition to fuss over next year! Xxx

 

[MoBaby]

My holiday was exhausting lol! Too many people at the house

 

[star25]

Very true mobaby, I had 12 adults, 4 kids and 5 dogs! Managed to get through work this afternoon and now having an evening of catching up with eastenders and sweets!

 

[FirstTry]

Hope everyone is doing well!

Stims start tonight
