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.....

Don't just lurk you idiot! You make me laugh even when I think the world has come to an end. And we want to know how it all unfolds, and be there for you throughout. X

joos my clinic puts everyone on Clexane as standard (as you say, it is a blood thinner). It's on the standard drugs sheet (including the one I was given for my first IVF when I had never miscarried.) I declined it. When I had my nk cells tested, they also ran the blood clotting tests. They were all clear, so it doesn't seem necessary for me. But most people haven't had those tests, so I think they just put everyone on it at some clinics.

Off topic - AF is MIA. CD45 now. Clinic says just see what happens. Do you reckon the old ovaries overdid it when they produced 8 eggs in late April so have gone into hibernation?

Clexane hurts.

Aw, fanks, slappers but I really do need to be a little tactful. The problem is I don't really have anywhere to go - the IVF Worriers thread feels strange as they're all well ahead of me and the antenatal thread for normals is full of mummies who already have six little darlings at home. It feels quite wrong to bring any post-BFP worries to this thread. So I shall shut me gob and simply roar you all on

Zammo, thanks for that clarification. The Bank Of Dad just stepped in

Joos not to say you're not tactful but if that's what people on here wanted, they'd be elsewhere IYKWIM.

You can't beat the rate at that bank

Motor yep ill test in morning it may be little soon but we'll give it a try x

Good luck to you too mejust. I remember test day - how can you be desperate to know and not to know something at the same time. Madness.

No Juicy no!!

Juicy don't you dare leave me again

Good luck mejust

resipsa clexane is the devils drug! It's the reason I've a gorgeous black belly right now, the needle hurts when you put it in, and then the actual clexane stings, horrible, horrible!

juicy we NEED you on here. It reminds us why the feck we're doing this. So stay for our sakes goddammit!

Thanks it not official test day but me and motor are going crazy so we hope we get nice surprise.

Ahem joos - I may only be lurking myself but you so need to stay with us until 12 weeks at the very least! It's all scary stuff and we are the people who know what it's like - we need to know that good news is out there and that we have the support when it hasn't been good news for us. Only those who've been through all this shite can truly understand your fears lovely. Smug mums who get preggers at the sniff of some spaff just wont ever get it! Even though you've had such wonderfully fabulous news this time you are a down to earth mother trucker who will give us support, understanding and uproarious laughter - now get your funk back on, bring back the swearage and stick with us please!

Blimey, I really, really love you lot Of course I'll support you all..to the very end. Now...COME OOOOON!!!!

Tame, ah, thanks for the reminder! I'll be at argc for the next cycle, all going well with day 1 blood test, whenever day one chooses to arrive - hopefully early next week.

Quim! Wonderful word. So self-contained.

Nobeer - 22 eggs is phenomenal. Well done! (Bloody hell, you're 40? That's an amazing result.)

Maybe - crikey, 16? You lot are clearly a bunch of over-achievers. I will need to up my game.

Nook three out of three fertilised is a fantastic result.

Hi Mejust, so glad you are feeling a bit better.

Euro, that is so poignant, getting the feeling of your old self back for just a few weeks. I had a chat recently with a close family friend who's embarking on round three, and we were both agreeing that there's no return to the pre-TTC innocence for ourselves or our relationships. So what you said is both lovely and unbearably sad, given it was so short-lived. Hug.

Juicy, hee hee I am far from thinking you are stupid! I was kicking myself for not thinking 'oh, Joanna, of course'. I'm not working at the mo and am reading some Victorian door-stoppers.

me but Bleak House is so dull. I'm only ploughing on because the spine is cracked to about two thirds of the way along and I can't bear it sitting on the shelf for the next decade, advertising to all that it wasn't finished.

Hello you bunch of old tarts....

lizzie ARGC?? you are a posh bird. The clinic I am at is notorious apparently for poor admin but we havent had a problem- it just struck a chord when you said that. I have heard that ARGC is quite disorganised but they do get amazing results despite the cha-ching! cha-ching! And all those blood tests??!!! Bet you have arms like an addict by time you are at the end of a cycle?!

nomaybe I have never even been to scotland you daft sod. I come from Middle England pet. If England were a dart board, my head is bullseye. Well done on 16 eggs- amazing!! fingers crossed for good fertilisation x

nobeer I am extremely envious!! 22 eggs??!!!! wonderful. I am sure with some good fertilisation, there will be lots of embies for you x

fish how lovely to hear that you are feeling brighter. Long may it last!! Stay positive xxx We need to get you back in the Czech call centre..... I still laugh about that on a daily basis! You are a fabulous asset to this thread and I'm praying for a good result

motor and mejust are you both testing tomorrow???? How many dpt will you both be???? Everything crossed xxxx

fab Hello xx Hope you are well and ready to start x

nook Have you had ET today? All 3 fertilised is fab! Well done you x

Karbea Hope you are ok?? Still on the wine coffee and chocolate?? I found out dairy milk is gluten free so I have eaten a lot

respisa perhaps your cycle is just a little messed up?? it will settle. How are things with DH??

Euro How are you feeling my love? Any inklings or murmurs? When is OTD? xxx

expat How are you? Any updates your end? Do you have a review booked? xxx

Choco where are you?????!!!!!!!!!! You have started treatment now and we want an update!!!

Hope Rachel and flowers are ok???

nokkie Do you know any amazing cake shops near where I am going??? We need to eat lots of cake.... I hope you dont mind but will have DD with me? She is very very funny but talks for England. I think you will like her

Have I missed anyone??? If I have hello and sorry

I have had a lovely day Nurture called this morning at 8am cancelling my review appt on the 19th August. I called them back to rearrange and have only managed to get an appointment 6 days earlier with their Clinical Director!! Yay!! He is supposed to be amazing so I am happy we will see him- there is usually a wait. We will have DH's results by then as well so should be able to make proper plans. Also have a support call with the nurses next week- they do this as standard after a MC so that they can check you are ok and don't need any extra support. I will see how I am am over the next week and if I feel like I did at the weekend, I will see if I can see a counsellor.

I feel happier in general. Doesn't mean to say I will feel happy tomorrow but for today, I am. Work was really nice and relaxed and just feel generally happier and calmer. DH is being fab as well, he is an angel.

Quick question- has anyone used proxeed plus? Or heard about it? Mel B has told dH to take it but its gonna cost us about 60 quid a month which is just bonkers. opinions please!!

love to all xxx

Aaaaaagggggggghhhhhhh knew I had missed someone.....how could I????!!!

juicy what an amazing blood result! Fab. Truly made my day. Can't wait for scan results next week. and dont bother going anywhere. We love you here. We live your news and views and I for one will take great joy in hearing all about baby's progress.

Your good news is all our good news xxx

lizzie I'm with the Argc :)

Hello everyone and thanks for remembering me here! I'm here reading all your updates and rooting for you. wish I'm so sorry that it didn't work out for you. And juicy it must be twins! So brilliant but you won't sleep for years!

Not much happening here yet but we start short protocol on the 1st day of next AF whenever that decides to appear. Feel ok, infact pretty damn cheerful, but I don't think I always realise how wound up I am until something happens to set me off. Had a minor melt down when we turned up at the hospital last week only to find we'd been given the wrong date for the information session. We've done it now anyway so we are ready to go. Funnily enough they remembered me on reception...

Is anyone watching Luther or Hannibal at present?

Im totally troubled by the insane behaviour of the 'bad guys' in these programmes.

I want a divan bed, the loft bricked up, no frigging blenders in the house and im going veggie.

Im freaked out.

tame I have just pm'd you, Your Grace.

mejust and motor I will be really hoping for good results for you both tomorrow. Xx

joos fuck the Gods. You have given-up Greggs ? . I have heard that if you do that up north, you get your passport revoked and sent to the mines. Is it true ? Oh and don't go anywhere you massive quim fart. Ffs, stop flouncing around and stay here. Where you belong. And START SWEARING AGAIN. Lovely news on the hcg levels though.

Hello to everyone else. Would anyone else like to join The Duchess for tea on the lawn on Saturday ?

Noks xx

tame. I have a few episodes of Loofa to catch-up on before I can dig into the new series. Is it good ?

Tame. I'm watching both. Luckily our beds a low one and we don't have a loft! I do have a magimix though. But give up meat?! No chance. Middle England you say? Definitely not Scottish then hides the haggis

Keeping very thing crossed for Mejust and Motor tomorrow.

I feel rubbish tonight and DH is working a night shift. I thi k waiting for tomorrow's call is the worst part of this process so far
