What's occurring?
Fuck, have I missed my egg buddies. How are you all, darling girls? Thank you for being lovely (I've gone over the thread briefly but need to do a proper catch-up obvs). I have just got back literally half-an-hour ago from deepest darkest Hades Wales after a most surreal weekend. Th'usband 'whisked me away' in a tent to a place so far removed from civilisation I honestly expected to just drop off the end of the world at any minute. Did I tell you th'usband is a survival expert with a background in the SAS and a supreme knowledge of living off the land? No? That would be because he fucking is not. But that didn't stop him dragging us deep into a forest forty miles from anywhere. The next timme someone replies to a rhetorical question thus: 'Does a bear shit in't'woods?' I shall confidently reply: 'Dunno, but I fucking do' 
My period was due Thursday and we left for Wales on Thursday night with no sign of the fucker. Friday came and went....no period. Can you imagine the headfuckery? No phone signal, no pregnancy test, no shop for (seriously) twenty miles (we had dumped the car fifteen miles from the forest and walked the rest of the way to camp as part of the 'experince'). When I say that, by Saturday morning with no sign of AF, we were excitedly discussing baby names I am not exaggerating. I hadn't had a pessary in seven days so knew it wasn't progesterone levels holding back my period. We were so, so excited: we were one of those pre-IVF ironidiffs! God had chosen to flip the bird at science and technology and all our prayers had been answered.
My period turned up at 11pm, almost 72 hrs late
I had no way of emailing the clinic to alert them and I didn't care. I couldn't believe the cruelty of it all, I was so, so fed-up. We packed up early this morning and hiked in silence to our car and as soon as we could I emailed the clinic. Thankfully it hasn't fucked-up the EC or ET dates; I've simply been sent an amended drug schedule and have one less Cetrotide to inject next week.
This episode has left me feeling pretty negative about our trip next week to Brno. The good stuff just doesn't happen to us and this weekend was so unbelievably typical of our luck that I am astonished that we were so taken in by the missing AF. Pathetic.
I really have missed you all. I will go back now and read your stories. Golly, I feel low
