Eggsellent Egg buddies! For those having ivf during April, May and June and any others still around :-)

Couldn't see another thread so thought I'd make our new one

I'm so sorry Tame. It's all so so unfair. Sending hugs and strength to get through however long it takes. Definitely get immune tests done next. It might be an answer. Take care x

Tame I'm so sorry it wasn't better news. Thinking of you x

I survived the christening we did get cross examined by a nosy woman who asked us outright if we had children. When we said no her response was "Why" she literally didn't say anything else! I didn't answer and just excused myself and DH. That goes in my top 5 inappropriate comments while ttc. Otherwise it was a lovely day.

Moon I completely sympathise on the everyone is pregnant front. I've got 4 close friends due in august, it's getting a bit much. One is my best friend and an instadiffer. Ive somehow got myself embroiled in doing a baby shower for her I don't feel too bad about her pregnancy as she has been a brill friend over all this ttc crap. On the other hand I'm really struggling with one of my other friends pregnancies so much to that it's caused major arguments between DH and I and I'm not sure I can continue the friendship I'm probably being unreasonable but I can't seem to change the way I'm feeling about it.

How has everyone's weekend gone?

I forgot the most important part! AF turned up after lunch so I'll be calling the clinic to request treatment in the morning

Tame good luck tomorrow with your appointment. Hope you find some way forward.

Cups How rude was that woman! And glad AF has rocked up

Nice weekend thanks, our bank holiday was last week so back to work today. Hotting up here, so I need to go summer clothes shopping garments must have an attractive elasticated waist and be comfortable

Really sorry to read your news tame xx

Cups, unbelievable some people! Well done for just walking away!

Nobeer, jealous of your hot weather! And your reason for expanding waistbands! Lol. Mine has expanded but not for the right reason!

Moon, so hard when all around you seem to be having babies left right and centre

Tame, how are you today honey?

Yay Cups! Hope the clinic call goes well.

Res - how goes it?

tame, I'm so sorry that the cycle didn't work. I too think that immunes sounds like the logical next step in investigations. I hope you find some answers soon to make sense of it all. It feels so sad that our own bodies can be so against us.

cups, well done on surviving the christening! and hurrah for AF turning up on time. All systems go now! With regards to your preggo friend, it may be irrational but you need to do whatever helps you and makes this all easier. If she isn't someone that you value that much, then just stepping back from the friendship might be better for all.

I've been lucky that none of my friends have gotten pregnant in the three years we've been ttc, and only one good friend has a child already. I know a few are starting to try now though, and I am worried about how hard it will be if I have another miscarriage.

stars how are you? And res? Also if fab and fish are lurking at all, I'm thinking of you.

I wish I could scroll back on my phone without losing this message, I know I'm missing loads

cups, I meant that to say it may seem irrational... it won't to us as we all know.

I think there is a baby boom at the moment. Where I live is popular with families and everywhere I turn there is a massive pregnant belly...hmmph... stupid efficient cervixes...

Moon face, I know how depressing it is when everyone is pregnant but you. I saw my preg SIL yesterday (who sent me a scan picture on the day I got my IVF BFN. She was really awkward with me. Just treat me normally for Gods sake. I'm not after stealing your baby. I've got six nieces and nephews and love them all. If my son is going to be an only then I'm grateful he has so many cousins and probably lots to come.

I'm just waiting for AF now if it's going to be a normal length cycle, probably not. I feel quite sane at the moment. I was really depressed after my last cycle and I'm sad I'm going to have to go through it all again with probably nothing at the end of it.

Roll on Friday eh! I'm off today anyway. Off to the garden I go.

Tame I'm so sorry.

Cups there is someone lucky enough never to have had to consider the pain of infertility (and pretty dim to boot).

Val.

In John Lewis with DD enjoying chocolate cake in feeble attempt to distract myself from the fact that I'm 6 days post 5 day ET and think it's all over. Of course, every other woman in here is pregnant...

When is otd day Res? Will you be testing early? Sending loads of sticky wishes.

Hi Beetle. It's next Tuesday!

Sorry all for brief self- absorbed post before!

Tame - sorry again to read your news. Hope you and DH are coping. Lick your wounds and let us know when you have A Plan.

Cups - speechless. Beyond rude and insensitive, in fact, quite weird. Clearly a social inadequate .

Thinking of you tame. Xx

Thinking of you tame. Xx

Thinking of you tame. How are you sweetheart. Xx

Thinking of you tame. How are you sweetheart. Xx

Tame thinking of you, have you got a review today?

Res thinking of you too, the second week of the wait is the hardest x

Turq that is exactly the problem I'm having with my friend. She can't treat me normally. She's keeping her pregnancy very quiet due to previous mmc's which is understandable but her DH confided in my DH months ago & asked him not to tell anyone including me. I then guessed she was pg, sent her a lovely long message congratulating her and she never replied. This was 3 months ago. My DH saw her a while ago & mentioned that I had never heard back from her. She said she didn't reply as she knows it will be very hard for me to deal with so she was giving me space. She has been in touch with my friends who are pregnant that she only knows through me and tried to organise for them all to meet up without me. My best friend asked her why she hadn't invited me and she said I would be uncomfortable as I don't have children. I am fuming, I never asked her for space and I was genuinely happy for her. My DH thinks I'm over reacting of course.

I've had my bloods, scan is not till 12. I'm praying my lining will be ok

Cups - sending good lining vibes your way .

Cups: hope your scan goes well. Sending you thickening vibes!!

Res: are you managing to keep busy?

On a completely different note, I am in the back of a mini cab whose driver has such stonkingly bad breath I am suffocating. Window is open and still it's unbearable. If I had sat in the front I would have been knocked unconscious. I to make matters worse I think he is lost . How can anyone have such a problem and not know about it? Or be a cab driver!! Grrrrrh.

Cups you're not overreacting. Your friend has lost the plot! Good luck with your lining.

Lining is 4mm! I'm in shock as it's normally above 9mm at this point. So scan was good, just waiting for blood results now. I also had 15 follicles which I know is good but I'm mentalling about that as I had 30 last time.

Bears I'm a freak as my lining is way too thick. I had my cycle in jan cancelled because of it.

Thanks Nobeer it's good to get conformation I'm not a completely crazy bitter infertile. Blokes just don't get it do they?!

The clinic has called, bloods are fine. I start stimms tomorrow
