Here, we go, nice new thread.
Might be helpful to have some stats so we know where we all are?

I will start, farfallarocks - TTC#2, cycle 11. 1st brooking baby DD, 21 months. Investigations reveal high FSH and potentially starting IVF.

cartoontrickster · 20/11/2014 05:40

morning far hope the egg collection goes well. here have some Brew to help you wake up 6.30 is virtually the middle of the night!

Imps9 · 20/11/2014 08:40

How did it go Far? I was thinking about you at 6.30am while I was in the shower. Hope you don't think that's too weird.

keepitgoing · 20/11/2014 09:04

I was thinking of you at 6.30 too while feeding s. brooking for a few top quality eggies

farfallarocks · 20/11/2014 15:31

Hello brookers! Thanks for all your early morning thoughts!! They found an extra egg so we have 3 to play with. Mr far was very relaxed and very 'pleased' with his contribution as was the embryologist. So they should be getting it on as we speak! I have marvin Gaye sexual healing stuck in my head willing them on!! Feeling ok a little sore but fine!
Phew.

Yaaaay Far!!!! Yaaaaay!

Pastamancer · 20/11/2014 15:53

Far I'm sure that the clinic are playing that song while they are making your babies baby

cartoontrickster · 20/11/2014 18:31

baaaaaaaby Grin far that's brilliant. hope you aren't sore for long.
i cant believe i forgot to say - N has taken a couple of steps!

keepitgoing · 20/11/2014 19:29

great news far that's a big step out the way. brooking for good fertilisation tonight Wink

ooh trix Grin Grin that's so exciting

NoMaybeAboutIt · 20/11/2014 19:43

Brilliant news Far!!!! Waiting for that first phone call is agony. Brooking like mad x

How annoying Keep Sad

Imps, any more definite BFP signs?!

Imps9 · 21/11/2014 06:52

Will you get any updates today about how the embies are getting on?? I imagine they've moved on to Barry White by now, but I could be wrong.

Maybe I need no further signs to tell me what I already know. I've already started on the nursery.

Happy Friday all. Plans for today and the weekend?

keepitgoing · 21/11/2014 09:54

any news on the fertilisation far? brook brook brook

farfallarocks · 21/11/2014 10:11

Two and of the three have fertilised so they want me back in tomorrow for a two day transfer. Apparently no point keeping them out longer and better to return them to a natural environment! Feeling. So nervous especially as everything I have read suggests a 5 day transfer is best.

What day transfers did you all have?

OP posts:
cartoontrickster · 21/11/2014 10:35

far woohoo 2! wish I nD something helpful to say but this is where it all starts to go over my head a little. but I guess the clinic know what they are doing. Smile

keepitgoing · 21/11/2014 10:48

you'll put both back then? Grin great stuff, pupo tomorrow!!
I had a day 5 transfer as I had more embies they wanted to choose the best. but with 2 they are better off in you.

farfallarocks · 21/11/2014 11:08

Thanks keep and trix,yes we will go for 2 as the odds are lower at this stage. If we got to 5 days then would have done a single transfer I think! Nerve wracking. Am listening to zita west relaxation cd but frankly I need gin!

keepitgoing · 21/11/2014 11:24

far I read that sex the night before transfer can help as your body gets used to dh's sperm and so more likely implantation... there was a study but who knows.

m.humrep.oxfordjournals.org/content/15/12/2653.full

NoMaybeAboutIt · 21/11/2014 12:33

That's great news Far! Also a 5 day transfer here, but as Keep said, we had more to play with, so 5 day made more sense for Us. Am brooking like mad lovely x

Ooh, what colour scheme have you gone for Imps? Wink

Imps9 · 21/11/2014 13:19

Ooooh Far brooking brooking brooking. I am sure day 2 transfers wouldn't be done if there were such limited chances of success. Good luck my love - trust your embies.

Interesting about the pre-transfer sex - not read the study document but sounds intriguing.

Maybe I've gone for mahogany on the walls, cerise on the skirting and lime green coving and ceiling. It looks immense. Lucky Implette

farfallarocks · 21/11/2014 13:44

Ooooh fascinating! Maybe the DNA is recognised or something? Will see if I can tempt mr far!! Thanks all for all your brooking it's much appreciated.

Such great news about cup I wonder if we can tempt her back?

OP posts:
NoMaybeAboutIt · 21/11/2014 17:15

Imps, I just snorted and woke the baby Grin that sounds delightful!!

keepitgoing · 21/11/2014 22:01

good luck tomorrow lovely far. I just found ET uncomfy as was so desperate. for a wee! x

Solars · 21/11/2014 22:27

What news to read after being away for so long from the thread (shame on me...)

Brook, brook, brooking big time here for you Far. I had a 3 day transfer by the way - it only takes one you know! Good luck tomorrow!

I am absolutely chuffed to bits about Cups's news, how absolutely lovely! I think about her, Beedle and Geek often, brooking for them all!

Lovely that N has taken his first few steps Trix, A has just started crawling here, kind of exciting and scary all at the same time!

Imps you do realise little implette will be more in your bed than their nursery don't you? These days A is becoming very cheeky and waking around midnight and won't go back into his cot but as soon as I put him in my bed he snuggles up close to me and falls asleep as fast as you can blink...!

Did I read correctly Keep little kip is 1 already?!!!!

I really should be in bed....
