Eggcellent Egg Buddies; are you cycling in July/August/September??? Get in here!!!

[tametortie]

We swear! We have to start a new thread every week! But we are the most gorgeous bunch of ladies ever and will do anything to get a baybee in our tumtum.

Get nattering.....

brooker what do you mean by 'real nurse'? I'm a psychiatric nurse - how about you?

that rings a bell, brooker! I'll have a look and see if I can find it. I've just done some stretches and had a kiwi and some strawberries, so hopefully that'll get things moving! Our guests have just left so already feel more relaxed. -I'm such an ungracious hostess-

motor I'm not a nurse at all. Twas a self congratulatory post due to my first mixing of the drugs. Sorry for confusion . Bet you've got some pretty interesting work stories? How are you feeling about testing tom?

Ah, sorry brooker - I was just being a bit dense. Nervous about testing tomorrow, but pleased that OTD is coming up. This has been the most stressful 10 days of so of my life! Not bad going I guess, when you think of the things that some people have to contend with.

Hoping for a dark line for you tomorrow motor . mejust how are you? Have you tested again?

euro thinking of you for OTD tomorrow.

Hello gorgeous ladies,

We are slacking in our 'one thread a week target'!! Anybody would think the sun had been out...

Seriously excited about news from motor mejust and euro. Remember, what ever the result- we are all here for support. X

Hello to choco, Lizzie, nomaybe, nook, nobeer (great embie result!!), joos, cups, karbea, respisa and anyone else xxxxx

I had a great day today with nokkie. In fact I can honestly say that today is the day I achieved some clarity. I think I may have chewed the poor girls ears off for 3 hours in Starbucks BUT that girl talks some sense. She is bloody lovely and as nuts as she seems on here. AND she has a very cute baby bump. Left that London today a little more at peace with plans ahead.....and DH had a massive wank with DNA results in 2-3 weeks.

Thanks Nokkie xxxxxx

NOT thanks Nokkie for DH's wank. Thanks nokkie for listening. That last post all read a bit wrong at the end....

oh Duchess, I am honoured. Though just for clarity, data protection and freedom of information purposes, I did not assist in any way with Mr Tame's five finger shuffle with the one eyed milkman.

You were absolutely lovely and it was really great to meet you (everyone - she is, indeed, a Laydee). First of all, I made a total tit of myself by going up to a couple and greeting them like long lost friends, before they looked at me slightly awkwardly (I.e., like a village was missing its chief idiot). I then realised that it wasn't my MN buddy but random foreigners. This was watched by the entire Tame Clan. So, before I had opened my mouth, I had created the (not entirely incorrect) impression that I was a bit of a fuckwit.

Anyway, I was very glad to be of assistance. Any time. Next time you come down to That London, you let me know.

I have just got in from my neighbour's birthday party. I have had so much orange juice that I think I have turned bloody orange.

motor mejust euro I am keeping my fingers crossed for testing tomorrow. Xx

beer sorry - am just going back through the thread to catch-up ! Brill result with the embies. What a brilliant start for you. Xx

Hi ladies!

I've been reading every day! I can't remember every detail though so please forgive me.

motor what's happening with your second line?
mejust did you test yesterday?
euro have you tested again?

Congrats everyone on their EC's and ET's. sorry if I've missed anything else exciting.

I've been getting on with life and started to feel back to normal again until last night and today I'm back at square one . DP has been my life line and has been the one keeping me on track but last night he went to a 21st birthday party and decided not to come home and didnt text to let me know...
I woke up every couple of hours and went downstairs to see if he'd come home and fell asleep downstairs. He didnt.
It turns out he crashed at our friends and was too drunk to tell me. I feel so upset and angry and let down. Half of me thinks I'm being silly but the other half wants to curl up in a ball and not see him again.

Am I over reacting?

Morning wish xxxx

No, I dont think you are over reacting. I would be cross too. Just knowing that he is safe and ok is a big thing.

How has he been since the result?? How has he coped??

Have you spoken to him this morning?

a BFN can test a relationship as you both some to terms with it BUT you need to be there for eachother, not buggering off for the night.

How are you wish? Talk to us xxxxx

nokkie watching you accost that couple on the street was perhaps the funniest thing I have seen.

DD said that you looked really happy to see them this random couple!

After I left you, I had to go for a wee at the British institute for architects- a policeman guarding the Chinese embassy took me in. Posher than the Starbucks shit streaked bog. Marble sinks, a lounge area etc. Fabulous daaaahling.

motor mejust euro any news?? X

fish how are you feeling?? Hope you haven't cracked yet!! X

He's been fine Tame and I was getting there too. It's just because he's still a damn teenager in his head and because he didnt drink for 8 weeks he needed to go and get absolutely off his face.

I just feel empty if I'm honest and I know it's a stupid over reaction to just a failed IVF cycle. I can have a laugh with my friends but it doesn't feel real. I think it's more worry for next time than grieving for the failed.
Ill get there :)

How are you feeling these days tame?

Wish I would be so annoyed as well, you must have been so worried. Does he understand why you are upset? I know he's been through a tough time too so I guess you can cut him some slack as it's a one off. BUT I would still make his life a bit miserable today cos I'm mean like that

Tame and Noks I actually choked on my breakfast as I read the post about Tames husbands wank! I figure this is a very honest, supportive step but I feel that kind of support may be a step too far Sounds like you guys had a lovely day.

How are the testers doing this morning? Mejust, Motor and Euro

Motor I'm a paediatric nurse, probably not the best job for a long term ttc-er. Do you like your job? I've got quite an exciting job but I must admit I find myself thinking more and more about what else I could do especially in darker moments when I feel all this will fail

Im ok. Feel a little bit more normal every day. You will too chick. Xxx

Don't make things too painful for yourself today with DP- I dont honestly think you need the stress. Has he been in touch?? X

thank you nokkie!

cups my acupuncturist seems to think that he sees a high proportion of healthcare workers that struggle to conceive. So far on this thread that's 2 nurses and a pharmacy technician. Is there anyone else??

nobeer any idea when the embryos will go back in?? I think you will have a bumper crop there! Well done x

wish its not an over reaction. No matter where the disappointment lies, the greiving process is the same.

I have experienced failed fertilisation,a failed cycle and a miscarriage and my feelings have been the same for all 3. Disappointment, sadness, anger, despair etc.

Don't be hard on yourself xxxx

Wish, how old is your husband and what was he doing going to a party without you, pliz? Does he often knock about with 21 year-olds?

Glad you had a smashing time together, Nokks & Tortie xx

Where are the bloody testers? S'not like Motor to keep us waiting...

juicy how are you feeling?? Sick sick sick I hope. xxx

Hiya Tortie, yes I'm sick on-and-off and very grateful to boot. A lady on another thread tells me that her beta was as high as mine and she only had a singleton in there so th'usband is not a little deflated. He's so crazily into the idea of twins: 'it's easy! one each!' but I have to keep reminding him that, for the eleven hours he is out of the house each day, it will not be 'one each' but two...all for me. All by myself.

I'm so excited about the scan on Friday but so very aware of that not being any guarantee of a take-home baby. I just keep praying that God will have His hand on my womb and the life growing in there.

What's for tea tonight, Torts? Please tell me what you intend to do with that there crab..
