Eggsellent Egg Buddies! Come and join us if you're IVFing in September, October or November :-)

rabbit try not to stress, although I know it's hard. I try to have a 'whatever will be, will be' attitude, although I indulge in a fair amount of stressing too. Just focus on your follie growing strong, remember IOTO!

wishwash good luck with your future plans, 2 weeks time your will have a more concrete idea of what your next steps will be and hopefully time will fly.

brooker best wishes for tomorrow, let us know how you get on and congratulations in advance on being PUPO :)

nobeer I bet you are glad the move is out the way, hopefully work was less stressful than moving house!

val how are things with you today?

at everyone else.

AFM, just waiting and trying not to obsess too much here. DH has booked a sky package install for later in the month, and I swear is more excited about that than test date.

Hello everyone!

Sorry I disappeared... Again... But after my FET negative things went crazy and I started to doubt everything. I am now a little refreshed and starting to look forward....

I have an appointment with my consultant on 19th nov to see what the hell is going wrong! I recently learnt that a girl I went to school with has been through 2 rounds of fresh ivf (at the same clinic), her embies weren't strong enough for freezing, and she fell pregs on the second try. That has given me a little hope.
although we have 5 embies in the freezer still, I want to go for another fresh cycle but we'll see what the doc says.
I started acupuncture yesterday which I find very strange! and I'm trying to eat healthily.... Of course this isn't going so well but I'll get there!

brooker I'm glad your embies are going strong. Very chuffed for you!

talulah congrats on being PUPO! Yay! I knew you'd get there

Hello everyone else, I'm sorry there aren't any more personals but so much has happened since I went AWOL x

Val well we are one 9mm follie twins! Grow little follies grow!

Brooker good luck for tomorrow.

Tallulah the pessaries sound yukky.

Well I'm feeling the Menopur, my head feels underwater and spacey. No ewcm - I've read that you should have this during ivf. I get loads on a normal cycle. Another thing to stress over?

Rabbit I have one at 9mm. On 225iu Gonal f (started at 75iu, 112.5iu and now 225iu). We'll see tomorrow….

Congrats on the move nobeer!

How r u getting on dancer? Hope all's well

R u getting excited brooker? I've got everything crossed for u that it all goes well tomo, let us know how u get on. How many r u having transferred? X

Hey talu they r rather disgusting aren't they!!

A quick one as I'm at work and shouldn't be posting

Mentalling begun already, I'm on knicker watch, not helped by pessaries that (tmi) make me constantly leaky. Yuk. Some minor aches and pains, no doubt caused by the trauma of transfer yesterday.

I'm convinced it won't work although hoping desperately it does.

Just about to hit the sack but wanted to say well done talulah. You are PUPO lovely!
Hi to everyone else xx
Catch up tomorrow.

well done talulah! good luck for weds, brooker! thanks choco*. move went Fine, but every muscle in my body aches! can't find the pillows, they're in a Box somewhere. so cushions will just have to do. work tomorrow will be a breeze compared to this!

helloo everyone else.

Brook can Wednesday just hurry up and come now? I have everything crossed that it's getting hard to walk. Thinking of you all PUPO ladies!

Thanks choc, it is reassuring to hear other peoples experiences. Not preachy at all.

Does anyone here know if nhs funding can be used for donor egg ivf? I can't find an answer online.

Sorry to hear that rabbit. On the cycle I got my BFP (chemical) I only had 1 follicle at 11mm on day 8 and some others then developed. I had 1 egg collected which fertilised and led to BFP. It really does only take 1 and I guess I always thought that although at times this process is crap, I had no chance without IVF(ICSI)- I feel for you and still hoping that those follies get going and prove everyone wrong. Sorry if that sounds preachy, as that's not at all how I mean it - just trying to help

Great news brooker and tallulah

Val well my scan today was shit, one follie has seemingly vanished and the little ones have only grown 1mm so I'm left with one follie at 9mm it makes me feel so sad that the drugs just don't seem to work for me. Are you on gonal f? And do you have lots at 9mm? If so that sounds as if they should get there for you.

It is pretty poop having to have ivf. Being a poor responder and having your follicle no decrease to one is even more crappy! I grow one nice follicle all by myself

talulah congrats on being PUPO lovely, ouch about the caught cervix - feeling your pain. So chuffed for you, and breathe ... I'm donor egg btw - feeling impatient now!

brooker great to hear about your fab embryos! you must be well chuffed

val groan at the slow growth. What've they suggested apart from having upped your drugs?

Welcome dancer and congrats on being PUPO. Any news on how many embryos you have to freeze?

nobeer hope your move went well

Waves to everyone else

So I'm PUPO

Last two embryos defrosted, one lovely and one with some fragmentation. So despite planning for a SET I now have two on board on the clinics advise.

I have had a very little blood and spotting, but I think the doctor caught my cervix, ouch.

Let the menkulling commence...

Way to grow brooker!! How excellent is that . Fingers crossed for a fantastic transfer on weds x

Urgh, slow varies still just that. Upped to 225iu and back on Weds! Rabbit I hope it gives you some hope! Day 14 for me, largest folly is 0.9.

So excited for you for Weds Brooker!

Talulah thinking of you today.

Hi dancer - good luck with the mad TWW and the frostie news.

My lovely beetle! Thank you! I have just been reading how important it is to manage my stress levels, especially now & you have definitely just helped I am so amazingly chuffed for you & your little bugs
I hear it's two boys stalking right back 'atcha . I couldn't be happier for you & Mr BB xxx

Great news brooker. My 2nd dc was a blast transfer!

Morning all!
Well we still have 5 going strong so going to blast -Weds transfer. They will confirm the time tomorrow . Eek!
Hope everyone's ok. Let us know when you're PUPO tululah x

Oh yes iwant & I'm not even in the 2ww yet
Welcome dancer Good luck with the call tomorrow

Welcome dancer. I'm going to be obsessing for the next 2 weeks so hop onboard let's go thro it together. The more the merrier eh brooker? X

Sorry to invade - I'm a complete newbie but just finished my first cycle of IVF and had an embryo transfer on Thursday, so I'm looking for people to obsess with now during the 2ww!

I'll find out tomorrow how many of our 6 embryos (other than the 1 that was transferred, obviously) made it to day 5 and have been frozen but then the excitement is over until test day - 13th.

Wishing for BFPs for all those trying.
