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!)

Me just sounds perfect.

Tame what have you said now?

tametortie · 18/06/2013 11:46

I asked for some advice about DD and its all turned a bit nasty.

I feel a bit upset about some of the things that were said, implying DD is a bully and im protecting her. Sad

Horrible. I think I need to delete the thread.

EuroShaggleton · 18/06/2013 11:53

tortie morning sickness? That sucks donkey balls.

My regime is officially "natural modified" but I'm struggling to see how it differs from a mild cycle tbh. I did not enjoy the Cetrotide last night. It was very stingy.

I have acu. It's about £50 a session here in fancypants London. I also spend about 1/3 of my salary on making my wee expensive.

nok love it - I might namechange to zammo...

minge (great name, btw) you are PUPO laydee!

mejust I flip out with the medical stuff too. I found natural IVF ok (apart from the egg collection). I'm not enjoying the drugs at all this time.

Must dash.

well done juicy Envy

Lifeasafish · 18/06/2013 13:34

mejust that sounds perfect! Do not look for problems that are not there, a perfect haul is between 15 and 20 or thereabouts so you should be within range. From what I've read that is.

tortie i've read it and you've been the victim of projection. Dont sweat it.

Nokkie73 · 18/06/2013 13:52

juicymomma you have two perfect sproglets in t'oven ! Congratulations. I am keeping everything crossed for you my love. When will you be peeing on a fiver ? Are you home tomorrow ?

mejustaworryguts that is a perfect amount of follies - don't stress it girlfriend. Seriously.....it is a really great amount at this stage.

tame tell us tell us tell us tell us Grin

Hello to everyone else

twinklestar2 · 18/06/2013 13:56

Congrats juicy an fingers crossed for you x

resipsa · 18/06/2013 13:59

Congrats juicy. I'm vicariously very excited. The idea of FUPO is very sweet Smile.

Karbea · 18/06/2013 14:00

Whilst laying around I've been thinking... Do any of you not work and not have any children?

Another girl on my ff thread is pregnant at the start this was exciting, now it's depressing!

mejust · 18/06/2013 14:03

nokkie you described me to a T ,i asked what amount they look for and they said 6 to 8 and wanted to check bloods .i always worry cant help it your stomach dont half feel weird on this shit though.

life good your cheered up today they told me EC prob monday .

wish how you getting on today hope your ok .

motor has your donor had another scan yet? are you feeling any better.

juicy when do you say goodbye to that place?

mejust · 18/06/2013 14:07

karbhubby runs his own business and i normally work with him but im off at the moment till the ivf is finished .

FlowersBlown · 18/06/2013 14:11

Hello everyone. I'm still here, lurking regularly and trying to slot everyone into place. I need a spreadsheet or something! I know nothing so have no good advice for anyone. I don't even know what questions I should be asking.

We saw the dr yesterday and the wheels are now in motion. Got the patient information meeting next week, then planning meeting then we can start, I'm hoping in about 6 weeks.

I came across your other thread tortie. Some people on here have a lot of pent up emotional energy which gets discharged quite randomly. Please don't take those responses seriously. There was good advice too. I'm a nanny to a now yr7 girl and the last year at primary was a nightmare with this kind of thing. It really is very common but it's all a distant memory now and there's only 5 weeks of term to go.

Lifeasafish · 18/06/2013 14:12

karb i usually work full time but if ever DH made it rich, I'd be happy to be a permanent lady of leisure Grin.

mejust to clarify I meant you are in range to get a total of that amount by EC. I assume mine will be about the same time as my cycle is only a day behind yours... Gosh.

nokk how are you getting on?

EuroShaggleton · 18/06/2013 14:19

tortie I saw your thread. I suspect a lot of people are putting their own take on your situation, based on their own experiences, and not really reading what you posted. I think you handled it very well.

I think I'd go even more batsh1t menkul if I had to sit at home all day. I'm not good at not doing much. And in any case, although the bloke is catching me up (and will probably overtake me if we have babies and I start getting overlooked at work...) I am still the main earner for now.

Hi All!

Just popping in to say the menopur is definitely kicking in. A colleague smiled at me earlier and I just wanted to punch him in the face. Oh dear.

Tame I am seriously angry for you. I haven't read the thread but fucking furious at people making you feel bad at a time like this.

Minge you must be feeling so great! Well done lady. PUPO PUPO PUPO!

Fabuluce · 18/06/2013 15:07

Hurrah for juice - fabulous news :)

I would love nothing more than to be a lady of leisure but instead I work my arse off doing all hours. Am stressing like a nutter at the mo and have been to the doc who has said she'll sign me off when I need it - just trying to work out the optimum timing at the moment ... Don't know what to do for the best.... Or do I just resign and be done with and be a lady of leisure with very small means??

mejust · 18/06/2013 15:13

nook you make me laugh yep they make you nasty dont they Grin,i was really moody with the nurse today but i didnt mean it.

life yeah we should be the same time and motors donor aswell is monday.

eurozammo · 18/06/2013 15:20

life/mejust I was told it'll probably be EC Saturday for me, so I'll just be a couple of days ahead of you. Yay for cycle buddies.

mejust · 18/06/2013 15:56

euro that was quick only couple days apart on cycle,i was hoping mine would be weekend .

eurozammo · 18/06/2013 16:06

And i see that motor donor is on a similar time frame. I predict a fraught time for the thread in about a fortnight!

NookNook · 18/06/2013 16:41

Do right Euro!

You and Life and Mejust have gor such an exciting week coming up!

NookNook · 18/06/2013 16:58

Too right Euro!

resipsa · 18/06/2013 17:32

karb I wish. Have 2yr old and work 4 days. Had been working FT for 18 years before DD and wondered how I'd cope on ML. I bloody loved it. If DH could afford us, I'd opt never to work again.

wishwash · 18/06/2013 17:53

Hi ladies

Congrats Juicy, thats really exciting news! Get home and take it easy whilst they work on setting up camp.

Mejust I had a few more follies than that on day 8 with some little ones looking like they were creeping up so they lowered my dose for one night. My E2 was also on the low side (according to one nurse) so they tested me every other day. My E2 is now around the same but another nurse said its absolutely fine and they're not worried. It is just depends on whether my follies actually have eggs in them I guess!

Tortie My legs are still attached you'll be pleased to know Smile. I don't know what went on on the thread but arse to them all!

NookNook I know what you mean, I pretty much hate everyone at the moment!

I'm not so good today. The last injection has really got my baby maker going.
I've been taking it easy at work, well as easy as I can and the one time I went into the play room to cover my colleague one of my -fairly chunky children ran to me to give me a cuddle and head butted me in the stomach. I'm feelings so achy now, kinda like period pains Sad Last day at work tomorrow and I can't wait for it to be over. It has to be one of the worst jobs to have whilst going through this? Or am I just feeling sorry for myself?
