You don't have to be crazy to be on this thread but it helps

(Ladies, I thought I would jump in and start a non-sweary titled fred. Feel free to turn the air blue now!)

Whoop whoop! Way to go Mingey! I don't know about putting more in. I can understand why you would want to though. I always panic at the end and think "stick them all in. ALL OF THEM YOU BASTARDS". But I don't say that out loud Blush. Anyways my point is if you want three put back in I say do it (after discussion with th'usband of course).

Mejust I'm on evil menopur. It looks like a crack den in here right now. I'm on 375 so that's 5 vials a night (2 jabs) - plus Suprecur .3

Hello Beer!

Buzzy talk to us. Xxx

NookNook · 17/06/2013 21:44

Tame I know. Time flies when you're having fun. Ahem.

So sorry you're having such a shitty day. Morning sickness?? What the fuck?

I really like the nutritionists at ZW. They really helped me focus on my diet for this IVF which makes me think I'm giving it the best shot.

tametortie · 17/06/2013 21:50

Nook- I know. Its a mind fuck. Past 3 mornings I've had my head in the bog. I thought nothing of it till DH said 'your hormones must still be high...' and it struck me. what bollocks.

This Mel brown seems to have gone independent. She was ace when we saw her before. Very relaxed.

twinklestar2 · 17/06/2013 21:53

Nook nook what did the nutritionists advise?

MotorcycleMama · 17/06/2013 22:06

Juicy I think that my clinic will only transfer 1 blasto due to the high likelihood they will implant. Not sure about 2 plus one more for good luck!! Your clinic will guide you, but you've got some fantastic embies there, and I have such high hope that this will be a great success for you. Good luck for tomorrow, and keep us all posted.

Really wanting to hear from Buzzy and hoping that the silence isn't a bad sign. Thinking of you. x

NookNook · 17/06/2013 22:15

Tame headfuck indeed. Really hope you start to feel better soon. You didn't go to work today did you?

Twinks they basically said eat shit loads of protein - 80 grams a day whilst doing ivf. I also had a vitamin D blood test and I was apparently low on vitamin D so I now have drops. I'm also on the Zita West multivit, DHA, coenzyme q10, inosidol and folic acid. She also recommended some cherry concentrate stuff (honestly can't remember what that was for) but it made me gag every time I took it so I stopped! The scientist part of me thinks the supplements are probably bollocks so the main thing is diet really....

Just a random question - does anyone here do acupuncture?

tametortie · 17/06/2013 22:18

I have acupuncture.

I really love it. Have had it on and off for years. Do you nook?

I didn't go to work today x

Karbea · 17/06/2013 22:20

Nook I was on loads of vits this time, now I'm panicking that's what made my eggs grainy :(

wishwash · 17/06/2013 22:30

nook I've not had acupuncture but really wanted to. It's a bit pricey for us though Sad

buzzy thinking of you, I hope it's good news

Quick question, has anyone ever suffered with their legs whilst stimming? I've had a trapped nerve in my left leg for days and not it seems to be moving to my right. Tonight m legs are painful and feels like the blood is rushing to my feet. I can't get comfy!

Will my legs fall off?

NookNook · 17/06/2013 22:31

Tame good! And stay home tomorrow too?

I tried acupuncture but never really got on with it. I was just curious as no one really mentions it and it's something that I regularly panic about!

Karbs is that a side effect? Did you read that somewhere? Should I panic????

tametortie · 17/06/2013 22:31

Wish- yes they will. And your head. Wink

NookNook · 17/06/2013 22:34

Wish no idea about legs - sorrry! Sounds painful...

I hear you about pricey acupuncture. I decided to spend half the money and go horseriding instead...

Karbea · 17/06/2013 22:40

Nook, no, except my mum kept telling me too many vits aren't good for you, now I'm just paranoid, need something to blame!

tametortie · 17/06/2013 22:41

I like horseriding but the horse I was learning on dropped dead Hmm and the other 'learner' horse was too wide.

I have acupuncture with Michael Gorman in Solihull. Very good and apparently people travel for miles to see him because he works out cheaper than London prices even with the travel. How much is it in laaaandaaaaan??? (sorry- must stop doing that! DH is a southerner...)

tametortie · 17/06/2013 22:44

Karbea- what were you taking? Unless its arsernic, I think you will be fine. Smile

Im going to start the inositol again. Im sure my eggs were lower on the shit scale since taking that.

NookNook · 17/06/2013 22:45

Karbs mothers eh? Gotta love em!

Tame that's hysterical. Although sad for the horse of course...

I was paying about £50 a session. Is that more than your guy?

tametortie · 17/06/2013 22:48

He is £40. Is yours in London? Who were you seeing?

Apparently, some are over a £100 in London for a session- just ridiculous money.

Michael is very personable and knowledgable. Very much fertility focussed.

NookNook · 17/06/2013 22:53

Yeah I might go for a couple of sessions when things progress a bit. I think I just need to find one who isn't a massive hipppy Hmm

tametortie · 17/06/2013 22:57

the most important are while stimming, after ec and after et. If you are going to do it at any time, do it then.

Nokkie73 · 17/06/2013 23:00

Evening to my gleaming and, almost certainly, freshly douched pussies (because we DO have standards on this thread, considering it's one great big twenty four hour foof floor show here).

Well, I had better get right on down to noshing on the big stuff, said the vicar to the tart.

joos just shove 'em all up there. Bet it's not the first time you've heard that is it dear ? If they aren't 'going to Iceland' as the embryologists say, they will be going in the bin. Better up Le Juicy Shute and into Le Juicy Oven than going to waste, is my humble opinion. Just as long as having them all shoved up there doesn't impact on your chances of any of them implanting, then go for it. Am really wishing you the best of luck for tomorrow chick. Xx

tame good news on the consult. I also put myself on a few of the supplements suggested to you. Am really sorry to hear that you have morning sickness though. That's just a packet of shit. Heehee robdogs - it shall be my new word of the week. Scan on Wednesday. I must remember to keep my clothes on slag

karb brill news re the transfer. You just never know with this old game - if they like it in your womble, then they will do their thing and stick around. Am keeping my fingers crossed for you.

wish those follies are most certainly doing you proud. Well done !

euro you shall henceforth be known as Zammo, you old smackhead Grin. Only those of a certain age will get that.....

And to the other stimmers and injectors mejust nooknook fishyfingers well done girls. Keep up the good work. I know it's hard and utterly nerve wracking but it's not forever. Promise.

res all settling down in your house for de then ?

motor it's all about to happen for you now. You're having it here, right ? Not planning a trip abroad a la Juicy Fruit ? She's had such a lovely time in Boore-o. I mean Brno.

Hi to rach, nobeer expat, my beeatch choco and everyone else I have forgotten because I can.'t go back that fucking far.

Noks xx

Nokkie73 · 17/06/2013 23:01

And flowers -sorry !

NookNook · 17/06/2013 23:01

Right then. I'll book tomorrow! Thanks Tame. X

Night night all. Xxx

Fabuluce · 17/06/2013 23:02

My sis is an excellent acupuncturist and she specialises in fertility - if you're Oxon, bucks, herts based - she's worth a look (proud sister plug of course!) just look up Beth bennett acupuncture :)

tametortie · 17/06/2013 23:04

choco im sorry- I missed you off my personals list. Hello! Blush

tametortie · 17/06/2013 23:05

Oh and fab!! Hello!!
