Taking No Nonsense and Brooking No Argument We Get Our BFP's, with or without assistance!

[Solars]

So who's next in line for that BFP???

Brooking for a good result tomorrow Solars I can't believe you didn't cave! Good luck.

Cups bloody fantastic you finally get to join the assisted party! About time, well done :):)

Beedle good luck to you too, when is test day? Can't be long.

Geek hope you get to evict Percy very soon.

Sorry this is just a quick one, my phone lost my lovely witty post earlier :( and now K needs feeding, catch up later.

ooh ladies, so chatty today! Not sure I can keep up, though back on laptop briefly so my post may make vague sense :)

beedle my appt with the embryologist pre-transfer was also very rushed, with no opportunity to talk afterwards. There were several times that I tried to ask questions but she just steamrollered on. Wish we could have seen the same embryologist who did our initial 2 hr consultation, she was fab. If you've any burning questions though, do ring your clinic. That's what they are there for. I love your way of doing prescriptions, very organised.

solars brooking like you wouldn't believe for your result tomorrow. Unfortunately you'll have to wait for the scan to find out how many are in there :)

Spoke to the clinic a little while ago. We don't have any frosties. The six-cell got as far as 10 cells but didn't make it to blastocyst, and the others only made it to 2, 3 and 5 cells then stopped developing. She did say that what was put back in was a very good quality embryo though, so not to lose heart on that basis.

Percy is now a DEP (Dr Endorsed Pile). I called my GP surgery for advice because it was so painful, and I wanted to know I was ok to take the cream given ET and they told me to come straight in for an exam. Dr was really lovely, took one look at it and said 'oh, that's huge! It looks really painful...' I now have more bum bullets to help with that, so it's a good job the cyclogest has switched to the front!

Oh Geek you poor, poor thing. I'm pleased you have something to help. Bloody Percy! Can he not see you have more pressing things to be dealing with?!

Sweetie I'm so pleased you're feeling so well.

Solars what time are your bloods being taken tomorrow? I hope it doesn't take long for them to come back. My stomach is covered in bruises from the jabs. But I only have to touch myself and I get a bruise!

Biscuits!!!!

I hear you're going round again m'dear?? Congratulations!

biscuits how lovely of you to pop in to see us

biscuits!!! So lovely to see you around, even if only briefly. I hope you staying away from FB and MN doesn't mean anything is wrong (((hugs)))

Oh my god! Biscuits it's lovely to hear from you. I hope you are well? How are your lovely boys? We really miss you around here.

Beedle my cycle is pretty average these days (it used to be longer). When I rung yesterday to request treatment they asked for the last 3 dates of AF. My last 3 cycles have been 30 days so maybe they will start my DR on day 23. I'll ask when I go to tomorrow. I'm obviously worried that I might not be able to start this month. They have said I'm not allowed to have unprotected sex from now on until the end of the first cycle. Has anyone else been told this? I might have to buy some condoms!

Maybe do you wait for AF to arrive before starting stimms? I'm not sure how that part of the protocol works

Geek poor you! I hope whatever the doctor has given you helps.

All good here thanks Geek - DS2 is walking now and DS1 is zooming towards school..... .

Aww biscuits they're growing up so fast!!! I can't believe how the time has flown.

cups I've not heard that one before, but I've no personal experience of DRing. I was sure I remembered someone saying that a lady on another thread got her BFP whilst DRing though, with no issue I could be completely wrong about this

Cups we were told no unprotected sex from when we started treament, not that we can get diffed on our own! I have 31 day cycles and still started on day 21. Normally, once AF arrives, you go in for another baseline scan, and then start stimming. But if your clinic needs to keep you down regging for a bit longer so they can fit EC in, then you can dr for longer. I know Beedle and I have DRd for longer than needed

I was Biscuits but not any more :(

Obvs I'm behind the curve here Maybe but how come you and Beedle have had to DR for longer?

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that .

Apologies for speaking out of turn and hope I've not caused upset .

I don't know what to call you now? rubber? bullets?

Whatever you prefer have a mahoosive cuddle [flowers[

Maybe I think I'll definitely have to pump the nurses for some information tomorrow as I'm not too sure how it is going to work for me. I feel weird at the thought of using contraception as its been so long since we have had to. As we are still sort of unexplained I'm a bit reluctant to but I'm too much of a goody two shoes to break the rules

I forgot to say thanks for the scan advice. I've been to the shops and bought some pads. Hopefully AF will have eased off a bit by the morning.

My mum has just called and asked about the IVF. I'm such a terrible liar that I couldn't think of anything to say apart from the truth I've not told her much as I've explained I don't want to have to give too many details. She's promised not to say anything to anyone else in the family. I think she was a bit hurt that I wont tell her every little detail but I'm sure she'll get over it.

Or even xx

I hope I wrote something suitably inspiring

For me the extra downregging was just so that they could schedule EC for a week when they had space available, otherwise I could have been waiting until August.

Oh and we haven't had a sex ban, though I think we've only dtd once in the last two months

Why have you gone Biscuits we miss you :(

solars was told 4 months in feb! Brooking for you for tomorrow, how many dpo will you be? X

I'm Dr fr longer for the same reason as Beedle I think. I'm sure they will go through your schedule when you see them tomorrow Cups. What time is your scan?

Biscuits you are so missed. Please say you're going to have a third so you can come back

As for the sex thing, I wouldn't worry too much for now. If outdo get preggers during dr, it's not the end of the world at all, apparently, like Geek says, it happens a lot!
