Sorry for the cluster posting but have a funny story....

When I went for transfer, they popped me on the bed, put me in stirrups and then the dr came in. He chatted for a bit then popped his head between my legs and informed me that I still had my pants on Blush

No wonder we have never conceived....

Badhairday76 · 22/04/2014 16:58

Ha ha!!

Just de-lurking to say a massive 'YAY!!! I can def see a line' to Vallinna and to congratulate Tame on being PUPO!!

Fab news, ladies xxxx

nobeer · 22/04/2014 17:18

I do tame. I'm just so happy for you! Your ttc/ivf journey has been so tough. You sound like you're running on adrenalin/endorphins or something! I did snigger about the knickers hehe!

resipsa · 22/04/2014 18:30

Nobeer - how're you doing?

Val - I too see the line. Yay!

Sniggering to myself too Tame Wink

nobeer · 22/04/2014 19:50

Not too bad thanks res. I was really feeling crampy and bit stressed but just drunk loads well more than normal of water and feeling a bit brighter! And you? Counting down the days?

Bearsandhoney · 22/04/2014 21:36

Wow, there's been some good news on here today. SmileSmile

Val: I can't seem to copy and paste the web address ... Doh! But sending you many congrats. That's really fantastic news! A whole new level of menkulling is heading your way! Enjoy Smile

Tame: 2 grade A hatching blastosist'sSmile.. And 2 for the freezer SmileSmile, Woo hoo! You sound so happy (and rightly so). Let the roll of BFP's continue!

It's been a good day hence the over use of SmileSmileSmileSmileSmile.

resipsa · 23/04/2014 07:26

And how are we all today?

Will anyone be left around in early May to hold my hand? So bored of waiting/taking drugs now. One week to go to ET!

How're you today Tame, Bears, Val, Nobeer, Stars? Any lurkers about to cycle out there?

Well, it is a good day for mentalling. The sun is shining and my line is darker:

Res- I'll hold your hand lovely x

vallinnapod · 23/04/2014 09:18

I'll hold your hand too res Smile

starsandmoonandback · 23/04/2014 09:27

Res, I'm always here to hold your hand too Smile I'm not cycling yet, as i was crap and didn't organise my co-ordination appointment in enough time to still have the scratch this month and FET next, so i will be a month later than planned. Have all fingers and toes crossed for you hun.

Thanks Bears….Val, that is a most definite second line…amazing…how many dpo are you then? Those IC are dangerous…they aren't as sensitive as they claim and can worry us!!!

Tame how are you feeling this morning? Still floating on the happy cloud. I hope so xx

tametortie · 23/04/2014 09:37

I am but the doubt starts to creep in...

I wish I felt different somehow but I don't. I had really bad cramps after transfer yesterday and my tummy felt a little sore but that must just be from catheter etc.

This is too early for menkulling....

vallinnapod · 23/04/2014 10:16

Cramping is sooooooooooooooooo normal Tame you had a plastic tube shoved into your baby making bits.

It's horrible feeling so out of control. It only gets worse Wink But just think of the airport fun (maybe it's just me but I LOVE airports!) Do you have anything else planned for the next few days? Can you plan anything? We were really busy over Easter which def helped.

PS - thanks for being more computerly able than me and posting the pictures, I have only been on my phone until today and hadn't realised!!

Stars - 12po.

tametortie · 23/04/2014 11:04

I loooove airports too Grin

DD is 11 on Saturday and I have no presents apart from a dress from peacocks so I need to sort that out really Blush that will keep me occupied. And then back to work on Monday- that will soon come round!

Dd wants roller boots (like the retro quad style) but I have left it too late to order online.... The hint for some could occupy the next few days.....

I can't believe how dark your line has got val!! Is OTD on Friday??

vallinnapod · 23/04/2014 11:22

I never had roller skates growing up. I feel massively deprived as a result and convinced it is the reason I am not an international ice skater...obviously Grin The same way I never had a pony and therefore my international show-jumping career was scuppered...

Yep, OTD Friday.

nobeer · 23/04/2014 12:16

res I'm not going anywhere for a while! I'll be here to hold your hand and cheer you on. Those anti natal club threads are a bit too excitable for me. I'm just giving myself a pat on the back for getting this far and they're all on about buying baby clothes!

tame I felt very crampy too as they had problems getting the catheter in me last time. You'll be ok in a day or two. Good luck with DD's present buying!

tametortie · 23/04/2014 14:36

Nobeer- it's eased off today and tummy feels very 'quiet'- does that sound odd??

Just been into town and managed to get DD some amazing inline skates for only £50 compared to £80-90 back home. Glad that bit of shopping is done! They were really lovely and extend up to 4 sizes bigger with a little switch. DH is crying a bit about the weight in the case so I'll probably have to wear them to the airport Confused

BeetlingAbout · 23/04/2014 15:05

Egg buddies, i've missed so much! Sorry for being so absent.

Vall, I am so happy for you, that is brilliant news

Tame, big congrats on being PUPO and having some frozen too - a brilliant result.

Res, so glad that your lining is playing ball and that ET will be going ahead. The next week will pass quickly (but i'm afraid the 2ww might not be so fast!)

I remember some questions about the hacking. The reason i knew is that there was a big, ranty post about mumsnet security in my 'i'm on' records, and it was under my username! That same thread (somewhere in 'site stuff') also had a link to an external website that had user names and passwords, but i didn't see any egg buddies and all passwords have been changed now anyway (and the link was removed from the thread). So annoying!

Brew and Cake for all egg buddies and extra slices for everyone i've missed.

resipsa · 23/04/2014 17:04

I'm Sad. Over-thinking. With all the recent luck, heart saying BFPs will be out of stock in May. Illogical thought but strangely compelling.

Val - nice line!

Tame - hope the flight home is uneventful. I still remember Juicy's overseas trip which seemed to get more dramatic by the day.

OP posts:
Turquoisetamborine · 23/04/2014 17:11

Val massive congratulations!! I can definitely see a line!

Tame great news for you too. When will you test? Do you just ring the clinic with your test results?

My cycle seems to be back to normal after my failed IVF which is good. I'm still waiting til June to ring the new clinic and get booked in for our next round.

I've spent the afternoon with my one year old niece and I just loved it. I would be such a good mammy to two kids. I hope I get the opportunity to try one day. Feeling sad but I love her so much too. My son is getting more and more like a teenager and he's only six!

vallinnapod · 23/04/2014 17:22

res...that's really not how it works Smile. You are very like me.....I read on here that there isn't a finite number of babies out there so just because x many people have BFPs, the odds of you getting one don't diminish. You have a super thick womb carpet awaiting an embryo!

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 23/04/2014 17:31

Hi everyone sorry I've been gone for so long. I've been trying to keep myself busy. It's not working as I wake up every morning thinking it's X number of days till AF is due. Btw it's 11 days today. Not that I'm desperate to start my next IVF go or anything Grin

Val massive congratulations!! That is a stonking fat line Smile I'm very happy for you x

Tame amazing news on your 4 blastos. Congrats at being PUPO. Grin at leaving your knickers on. I hope you have a good journey home. I remember how things were for you a year ago. I'm keeping everything crossed for a BFP x

Res not long now until ET, I'll be here cheering you on. There better be BFPs for you and Tame in May.

Stars will you be starting again in May? Just wondering if we will be cycling at the same time.

Turq I really hope you get to experience being of mum of two. I'm sure you will get there x

Bad lovely to see you and hear it's all going well x

Big hugs to our two recent grads Nobeer and Bears. Hope those scans come along soon.

tametortie · 23/04/2014 18:18

Res- I haven't got a bfp yet! I could be planning a trip back to get frosties in a few weeks..... Then you can h
