This thread is the one the Rat Smacketeers all become PSEPP and we are Brooking No Argument this is the case. Fact.

[ScarlettInSpace]

Ladies this thread is the one, I can feel it in my water [although maybe that's the drugs ], here you go

oh no sweetie whats up with the dog?
ah sweetie its horrible when you feel like that i hope your side effects let up soon.
sparks did you say the appointment was today?
thinking of you as well geek x

face i had started a thread in the Doghouse to see if anyone else had seen similar. Vet just rung again to say it is very aggressive cancer (spindle cell) so we have to decided what is kinder. It is a no brainer to be honest, but very very sad as she seems fine.

oh sweetie im sorry how awful for you to have to decide.

You know how you can store ready-to-drink formula in the fridge for 48 hours? Stupid question possibly but do I need to put it into a sterilised bottle to do that? Sorry it's such a dopey qn.....

Totally the wrong thread there

(although if anyone knows the answer.....)

Sorry. Still brooking for y'all (as evidenced by my obviously lurking!)

haha

Oh Sweetie when will they ........... would they wait while she is still ok or take care of her sooner? I am so sorry

Oh sweetie I'm so sorry about your little dog ((hugs))

biscuits if its any help, I have never bothered to sterlise a bottle of ready to drink wine before I put it in the fridge :o Unfortunately I know nothing about formula!

I'll put it in a wine bottle then Beedle - that should do the trick . Now, just need to empty one......

Sweetie so sorry about your little dog :( Thinking of you xx

Sweetie sorry to hear about your dog, how very sad {{hugs}}

Scarlett I too have been worried about non-showing of withdrawal bleed but she arrived yesterday accompanied by very painful cramps and night sweats to boot :( Sorry to hear you are still not feeling well but it's not too long til you start your stimms, next week right?

Good luck Geek with your scan and trial transfer, it'll be a doddle!

Sparkes definitely diffed!

Maybe & Imps I am in the middle of making a lemon cheesecake for DH, I too watched GBBO and loved the look of that key lime pie, I will hunt the internet for that recipe, DH loves things all lemony and limey!

Waves to everyone else x

sweetie oh you poor poor thing, not what you need at all but at least you're being responsible and making the decision before she gets to a stage where she is suffering!! Heart breaking though!!

I've forgotten who else I was going to name check!!

My appt went well(ish) I have cysts on both my ovaries so my doctor has confirmed the PCOS diagnosis, no shock there! Apparently they also found a rather large cyst on one of my ovaries but they think that might be due to recent ovulation (I forget who had something similar) so I have to go back for a follow up scan, all being well that cyst will have gone, apparently the scanner should've explained all of this before we left the hospital rather than me just receiving a referral for a second scan (unnecessary stress/worry).

Soooooo my doc (I saw the lovely one today, that looks a bit like professor trelawney) is happy to refer me pending the all clear from a rubella blood test, which I had this morning (walked out the doc office and practically straight in to the nurses)

She explained everything, the implications of PCOS, what I can expert from the fertility clinic, she told me not to blame myself then looked meaningfully at mrsparks and told him that he'd 'have to do his part too' she even had a little joke about how many couples get diffed just waiting for the referral!

Feeling pretty good about it all, just sort of takes the pressure off iyswim?!

Just gotta go take my choccie brownies out the oven then i'll do some more name checking

Sorry to hear about your doggie sweetie Life is so bloody up & down sometimes, it feels like you're being flung from one end of a pitch to another...

biscuits I'm pretty sure I was weaned on wine bottles so I'm sure it'll be fine

sparks it's deffo the knowing that helps, it all becomes something a bi more controllable and solveable then.

solars scan on Monday so fx can start stimms then...

I'm going to make total comfort food for dinner, a proper lamb & mint hotpot, it takes about 3 hours but is lush...

Sweetie have you been to see the vet yet. Have some v unMNy hugs

Hope everyone else is ok. xx

Oh Sweetie lovely, I'm thinking of you. Must be so hard x

Dinner sounds immense Scarlett

I love cheesecake Solars. If I get a chance tomorrow, I will type the key lime pie recipe up and email it to anyone who fancies it

Oh sweetie poor pooch. Losing a pet is awful. We had to put one of our rabbits down a couple of years ago and if I'm honest I wish I'd done it two days before we actually did. He was in a poorly way, the vet said there was a slim hope he would get better and I held on to that slim hope. He didn't get better, of course, and by the time I took him to have the jab I felt awful that I had prolonged his illness. Still feel guilty about that, poor wee rabbit.

There's never an easy way to make a difficult decision. If your dog is still full of beans now, it may be the best way for him to see off the world if there's no guarantees about the future.

oh sweetie how awful, your poor dog. What an awful decision, and particularly bad timing. Whatever you decide will be for the best, because you love your dog and have their best interest at heart.

Just a quick scan update - the exceedingly full bladder helped enormously, the catheter slid straight in and straight out - yay!

Unfortunately the scan showed that the ovary with the endometrioma is the only one that would be accessible for egg collection and there is absolutely no guarantee that it would even make any eggs given the size of the cyst. The good ovary is miles away from anywhere the consultant could reach. I need an operation (keyhole surgery hopefully) to shift my good ovary to where it ought to be, and where he can reach it. With luck, since my GP surgery supports 'choose and book', my Priory consultant can do that work without too much of a wait. Otherwise, I'm back on the NHS for 6-9 months. On the plus side, even if that does happen, he is very happy with my eekily high AMH so I don't need to worry too much about time being against me. He even said I was nice and young at 36 I love my consultant

Hopefully will speak to him again tomorrow to confirm things, find out timescales etc.

sparks so pleased your scan went well, they should have told you that at the outset though instead of worrying you with an appointment for a second scan with no explanation. It sounds like you have a bit of a plan in place, which is excellent, and nice to have MrSparks reminded he has his part to play too!!

Right, off to finish tea - aubergine & quorn lasagne, weight watchers style (2lb off this week - let's see if I can get to goal before IVF!)

Love and brooking to all, sorry I haven't namechecked everyone but I really do appreciate each and every one of your messages. Will catch up later/tomorrow properly x

Geek glad the mock transfer went well. It is also good that they can look at moving the good ovay to a better place to collect all those lovely eggs when the time comes.

Sparks pleased you scan went well too, sounds like progress is being made

Well dog is home, she still seems just like herself which makes it a worse decision to make. So we are going to have a lovely day tomorrow, go to our favourite park, feed her tuna & scrambled egg - her favourites, let her sleep on the bed and generally pamper her. Then take her Saturday back, hopefully she won't have got any worse but we will all have had quality time together and everyone can say their goodbyes. My parents care for her while I am at work, I drop her off on the way and collect her on my way home, but they are on holiday at the moment & come home tomorrow, so at least they get chance to see her too.

I am trying not to get upset, very difficult, but do you think this stress will impact our embryo?

Oh Sweetie

I'm quite tearful reading that . Goodness knows how you must be feeling.

I know this is horribly stressful for you and so sad too . I am sure it won't affect that nestling in little emby. Try to make sure you take a bit of time to relax, perhaps with your relaxation cd thingamy? Be kind to yourself

Sweetie it is so sad, I am so sorry this is happening now. But please be assured, your little emby is a brooking emby and is made of strong stuff, and it is far too busy getting comfy.

Geek glad your trial went well, do you know what sort of waiting time you could have using choose and book, it is really good that they can do that just to make sure you get the very best golden egg!!! So pleased you have such a good team looking after you now :)

Right, I'm off to bed, the sickness has given way to tiredness :( I actually took a nap earlier

sweetie am thinking of you today, and hope you have a lovely day together. It is so awful losing a pet, I am always distraught. My mother always says do not worry about the pet, they live in the moment and as long as they are with you they are happy. And do not worry about your emby, people get pregnant in all sorts of stressful situations. We are all brooking for you like crazy.

geek am brooking for a quick key hole surgery appointment for you. glad you have a good consultant.

i'm still low on cbfm. FFS. Please brook that i'll go straight to peak over the weekend, lovely ladies.

geek sounds like you have a plan, but it all sounds so difficult, having an operation just so that your ovary is in the right place for egg collection for IVF. how come other people just get to have sex a couple of times??

sparks sounds like things are heading in the right direction for you too

sweetie sorry you're having such a sad time, but I'm sure it will have no effect on your sticky little embryo, who is currently making itself comfy for 8 and half months of growing ((hugs))

keep I'm brooking for your peak :o

I'm not sure if I thanked you all for your kind thughts about our appointment, if I didn't, thankyou and I've made you all a

Had my first blood test this morning, HIV and other stuff (eeek), FSH and Chlamydia, I didn't realise they could test for Chlamydia from my blood, I was a bit worried they were going to drag me away and demand I remove my trousers so they could swab me But they didn't, so I wasn't even late for work :o

Anyway as I am at work I ought to do some

keep I hope it happens soon but try not stress that can kill ovulation dead!!

beedle all those blood tests are making me feel woozy just thinking about it!

I feel flipping stupid this morning, AF due today or tomorrow, so i thought I'd take a test, wiped (tmi) and the little biatch had arrived!! Right on queue!! Ah well can't say I wasn't expecting her

Hope everyone has a good day today!!

Hopefully I'll have a new job by the end of it!! Wish me luck!!

Good luck Sparks sorry the bitch got you though :(

Morning brooker's hope you all have a good day.

Oh Sweetie how heartbreaking for you lots of hugs

Sparkes she really is a horrible old hag! But good luck with the job!

Beedle that is strange about the chlamydia? I got swabbed but would rather have the blood test!

Geek sounds like you're on the road to getting that baby now!

Brooking for your high Keep

Don't go to too much trouble Maybe I'm sure it will turn up in the Internet soon! How are you feeling these days?

sorry to hear that sparks I think the same thing has happened to me as well, the only good thing is using a ramekin so no stock is wasted Is the interview today? Good luck, I'm sure you'll knock them dead (hopefully not literally as being in prison might not help you very much :o )

solars I thought it was a bit weird too, I'm half expecting them to ring and say I need to go in again. The Dr offered to do a smear on Wednesday (in a whilst I'm there poking around sort of way!) but we decided it wouldn't be such a good idea due to AF. Anyway I'm fairly certain I don't have it as I was tested about 4 or 5 years ago (and there hasn't been anyone other than DP for a good few years before that)
