That's really good news Delgirl! Will keep everything crossed for you and let us know how you're getting on!

DelGirl · 14/07/2004 15:45

Thanks CM! I'm pleased but know it's a long long road!

CookieMonster · 14/07/2004 15:22

that's great news Delgirl and I for one have everything crossed hoping that this is "the one". Best wishes CM xx

Thought I'd revive this thread to say to anyone who's interested that I had my 1st scan this morning and all is looking good. Well as much as ovaries can . I have 1 follicle so far, it's under 10mm but it's there, which is pretty good as i'm only day 5. Not going to be scanned again until next Wednesday now as i'm a bit of a slow one! Please please please let this be the one

I just 'met' Delgirl on another thread! Wish I'd had this a few months ago, but to all those out there who are thinking about trying IVF - go for it - it is stressful but as I sit here today 12 weeks pregnant after trying naturally for 6 years, I couldn't recommend it enough!

Good luck to everyone who is trying!

DelGirl · 30/06/2004 17:04

CookieMonster · 29/06/2004 19:46

DelGirl · 29/06/2004 19:36

Can I just say - i'm starting my 5th round of IUI tommorrow, help! I feel quite focused but am quite nervous too. Last 2 ended in m/c and I only have enough of late dh sperm left for 2 more go's. Wish me luck please everyone. Have no other children and getting to the end of the road. Must stay positive and keep most things crossed! Here we ,or I, go again!

Oldiemum, sorry to hear this. Like cookiemonster says, give yourself some time to decide.

elliott · 29/06/2004 16:18

Oldiemum, I'm so sorry. Its a tough decision you're facing now. I'm lucky enough to have two lovely boys from IVF and I feel for you.

CookieMonster · 29/06/2004 16:17

OldieMum, I'm sorry to hear your news and what a dificult decision to have to make. Give yourselves a bit of time to think about it and I'm sure you'll do the right thing. Hugs CM

malinki, if you want to contact me any time via Contact Another Talker please do ... I'm very happy to tell you all I can about Tony Rutherford and the ACU at the LGI ..

OldieMum · 29/06/2004 16:09

Thanks to all of you who wished me luck. It didn't work. Now we've used up all our frozen embryos and I'm already 42, so we have to decide whether to go for another fresh cycle, or to call it a day and be content with our lovely dd.

malinki · 29/06/2004 16:03

Well ladies, it looks like I'm joining this list, I have just taken a call from my Gynie, who has said she is finally refering me to Tony Rutherford and crew at LGI in Leeds, I am scared stiff, I'm currently on CD30 with very sore boobs, did a PG test this morning and was neg, maybe i'll just sit back and give in for a bit.

DelGirl · 14/06/2004 18:53

DelGirl · 14/06/2004 18:52

Best of luck 'not so oldiemum' - hope it works! I start my 5th round of IUI in 2 and a half weeks time omg!

Oh Oldiemum - GOOD LUCK!!!

OldieMum · 13/06/2004 17:28

I had a frozen embryo transfer last week and will know the result on Monday. We used up the last of our batch of frozen embryos this time. As I'm 42, I think this may be our last chance to have a second child. Please think lots of positive thoughts for us!

CookieMonster · 13/06/2004 16:59

hi miracelabie, good to see you back! Good luck on Monday and best wishes to you CM x
