Hello everyone,

Sorry for my lack of posting lately, its partly because if havent had loads to say, so i have been lurking, but reading and thinking of you all. But also, my iphone was vomited on (nice!) and died, so i was without it for a while...felt like i lost an arm! So sad i know!

I'm not sure i can catch up with everyone since i was last on, but ill have a wee like through the last few posts.

nobeer, how ya doing hun? Exciting that you have an FET planned, as well as a new flat to move into. I am also picturing you preggars and serene in your new place :) Maybe thats the visualisation you should be doing :D

Tallulleh, absolutely loving the positivity..we need some on this thread as a few of us are struggling at the moment. Good lcuk and i eagerly await your (earlier) announcement (on here i mean!) :)

Bugger, hello ;) nice to meet you. November is just around the corner woohoo!

Res, blimey, cant believe you are STILL waiting for the call...how can they seriously advertise a 'no wait' list!!?? I really really really hope you get the call very soon hun. Sorry for all the pregnancy 'news' surrounding you, it sometimes feels like we are magnets to pregnancy and baby stuff, doesnt it?! (((hugs)))

Hi Brooker, where are you at honey? I have a goldfish memory, sorry

Drizzle, how are you doing?

Twinks, you ok?

MaryP, glad you are feeling more positive and thinking good thoughts about your FET to come. FET has good success rates nowadays, dunno what your woman is saying! The reality is that lots of blastocysts that arent top notch make babies plenty of times, im annoyed at her for being so negative when you don;t need that and frankly, it is not set in stone. stupid woman! I never think quoting statistics to patients is of use most of the time, as we will either be in the numbers that it works for or we won't!! Hopefully, you will be this next time my lovely.

Pip, hows the spotting?? Hope it is the 'good' type of spotting too :)

Wish, Hope youve found your positivity hun. wishing you loads of good luck with your FET. All we can do is try and be positive and hope. Keep hoping honey, hopefully its your time.

Miss, sorry you didnt come away from your review feeling too positive hun, its hard sometimes as they just don't have the answers we want or need sometimes :( It sounds good that there are some investigations that might help add to tailoring your next cycle though and that you are happy that you will do another fresh one and leave FET for if you really need to :)

Hi to cups, iwant, Tame, Choco and anyone else i have missed out.

AFM: i have now had my review appointment and my consultant still seems positive for me using my own eggs, because of the response to drugs, getting to blastocyst, but just nothing is implanting, which is where we are not feeling so positive. he has asked me to repeat my natural killer cells blood test as this can change, so to be sure there is nothing happening here. Also u have had my thyroid tested too,a s i have previously had an under-active thyroid which luckily righted itself without drugs, after about 5 months, but i've never since been tested, despite me mentioning this at all my appointments! So, that will be a couple of weeks before i get those results. Then yday we went to London to my old clinic to see the conusltant there. My last cycle there was the one i had susepcted ectopic, which then turned out to be a missed miscarriage (blighted ovum) where i had to have medical management at 10 weeks to complete the miscarriage :( His suggestion is to have an HSG, as i have had previous extensive scarring in my uterus (from my DS labour and a bodged up emergency caesarean!) which he sorted out in 2 operations before my bfp with the miscarriage. He says, previous scarring and the missed miscarriage could have caused more scarring to occur which could be interfering with implantation, especially since ive had 6 blastocysts transferred over the last 2 cycles and not even a hint of a bfp. So, af begain this morning, so i have to ring up to book the HSG for this month. We are still undecided about where we ill cycle (old or current clinic) but info from both tests will hopefully be helpful and may help us to decide!!

Wishing us lots of positivity and BFPS in this thread...we deserve some
