Hello everyone,

I've just spent the last few hours watching the second Sex and the City movie - great escapism!

Feeling much better, what will be will be. This is the best chance I've ever had so I need to remember that and believe. And if this doesn't work then I will try again with my frozen embryo.

I really don't think googling and being online is helping me so I'm off out for a little while and might go out with OH when he's back I'm work.

Thanks so much again.

Excellent news on the 12 eggs, wim. Make sure you relax now. I felt ok afterwards but a few hours later I was in pain so make sure you put your feet up.

wim congrats!! Rest up!!

twink I am a sex and the city-aholic. I recommend season 6. The episode at the synagogue with harry and charlotte makes me weep big floppy tears. Xxxx

NoMaybeAboutIt · 23/07/2013 14:45

Oh Wim, amazing news! Well done you!!

Twinks I'm so pleased you're feeling calmer. This week will be so tough, but you're doing so well, really you are x

Loving the new name Beetle

How you doing Chocco?

Hello to Res, Tame, Motor, Nobeer, Brooker, Nook and all you other lovelies I have forgotten x

BrookerC · 23/07/2013 14:59

Well done wim! That's a lovely number. Hope you're getting plenty of rest. x
Hi nomaybe how are you today lovely? x

chocolocodowninacapulco · 23/07/2013 15:02

Hello beetle

maybe I'm fine thanks, pretty dopey, but nothing new there! How are you doing?

Off to have a snooze listen to zita West relaxation CD - have you tried it twinks? I never hear it all the way through, but hope it helps me to chill.

Hello to pramela tame cups nook nobeer res brooker and the many people I'm bound to have forgotten.

chocolocodowninacapulco · 23/07/2013 15:02

Hello wish too!

NoMaybeAboutIt · 23/07/2013 15:27

I'm good thanks Chocco and Brooker. Had a bit of a wobble as had some pink Crinone discharge. Spoke to a nurse at the clinic, and apparently it's a really common side effect of the Crinone. So I am now a picture of zen yeah right

Glad you're both doing ok x

NookNook · 23/07/2013 15:51

Great harvest Wim!

Glad you're feeling better Twinks. You have to take really really super good care of yourself ok?

Hello everyone!

Xxx

resipsa · 23/07/2013 16:41

Tame is Season 6 the Paris season? I love Paris and SATC equally. The Dior scene is one of my favourite; it's the sort of idiotic thing I'd do (fall AND overspend to compensate).

Wimwom · 23/07/2013 17:25

Thanks ladies - I'm pleased with 12 given they thought maybe 1 on triggering. The doctor doing the procedure looked like mr Darcy... And all I could think as I went off to sleep was 'don't say anything stupid' - apparently I asked about ten times as I came round whether I had said anything stupid! No idea what I was so worried about saying.
Wish I had the sex and the city box set - I love it, maybe an amazon order is in place as I understand taking it easy is what I should be doing right now, no?!

MotorcycleMama · 23/07/2013 17:58

wim that is fantastic! I told you that they nearly always seem to underestimate how many eggs you'll produce. Rest up now, take it easy, and give us daily updates on their progress.

Good to hear from you resipsa, and really pleased to hear you're at least 'sort of' happy. It's really hard getting a BFN, I've had countless in the course of natural conception, and that is bad enough, but I can imagine how that is increased with IVF. I'm an eternal pessimist, so don't really count myself as pregnant yet - at least until I see a yolk sac, foetal pole and heartbeat. My scan is next Wednesday.

brooker you are so right about comedy. Even though it may feel like the last thing you want to do, it is very good for you, so worth trying. How are you doing?

tame DH and I went camping and hiking in Switzerland last year- what a stunning country. You do deserve a great holiday like that. If my pregnancy does not stay, we will be going again this year in Autumn, but I stay pregnant I don't think I'd cope too well with the altitude and mountain hikes.

Fabuluce · 23/07/2013 19:07

Congrats Wim - 12 is a lovely haul :) definite time now to get relaxing - I would also recommend the Zita west relaxation cd - really helps you sleep if nothing else - all ready for transfer date. Xx

Fabuluce · 23/07/2013 19:10

I would also recommend soon as many things as possible to keep you happy over the next couple of weeks - spending time with those who make you laugh is supposed to be excellent along with romcoms and anything that will keep you perky and happy - so probs best to avoid Luther or if you're like me, every single crime drama going!'

twinklestar2 · 23/07/2013 19:36

I went on some lovely long walks between EC and ET with OH. We talked so much and were so excited. But def rest up for the first couple of the days.

chocolocodowninacapulco · 23/07/2013 20:12

nomaybe glad you've been reassured about the pink, the nurses have loads of experience, so glad you spoke to them and put your mind at rest.

Is 2 dpt too early to start mentalling?! Confused

twinklestar2 · 23/07/2013 20:23

Do you think testing 2 days before OTD with a FRER will give an accurate result?

OP posts:
tametortie · 23/07/2013 20:26

twink yes but I was an habitual tester Blush have you tested? X

chocolocodowninacapulco · 23/07/2013 20:34

Ooh, twinks is today 2 days before OTD? FRER are pretty reliable, aren't they?
Hi tame more holiday sorting today?

twinklestar2 · 23/07/2013 20:37

I haven't tested and today isn't 2 days before OTD! I'm asking because that's when I'm planning on testing.

MotorcycleMama · 23/07/2013 21:37

choco you are bang in line for the commencement of mentalling! Please, feel free!
