Sparkly, we can call off the search, I have seen Purdey on fb! I'm sure she'll be along here soonSmile

juneybean · 16/03/2015 18:34

Yay abba!

mrsb0710 · 16/03/2015 18:45

I send DH pics of my positive OPKs and he knows he need to get in the game :)

Sparkly123 · 16/03/2015 18:51

Phew! SHE'S ALIVEEEEE! Thanks Spinning Smile

Hello everyone. Sorry to see so many of you feeling disheartened this evening. I would normally direct you to sparkly, who always knows just what to say, but sparkly is down too! This is a disaster! I hope you all know that, like everyone else on the bus, I'm rooting for all of you. Hope you all get a good night's sleep and find the strength to pick yourselves up just one more time. next cycle might just be the cycle.

All quiet here. Not set fire to nuffink for a while.

Giddymamma · 16/03/2015 19:18

Oyster, hilarious. :)

Sparkly123 · 16/03/2015 19:19

Giddy don't fear! I'm up now! I'm positive and back in the game! Must have been those stupid hormones. I'm now renewed ! Ha ha. How are you?

Giddymamma · 16/03/2015 19:26

Yay sparkly! You can't keep a good girl down for long! Well done little soldier. X

I'm good, you know, hanging around, not ovulating, the usual. Hmm

Sparkly123 · 16/03/2015 19:32

Ha ha give it time Gids OV is on it's way! Wink

PurdeyPie · 16/03/2015 19:36

I haven't caught up yet but am dismayed that you feel you have tried everything, Nomio. This may have been a long, long four years for you, but you have not yet seriously considered the wonderful world of IVF. Yes, the success rates are not amazing -25% chance of success with the NHS. However, there is a big world of assisted conception out there, including world-class embryologists (Czech) and superb success rates. Look at me: 42 with a mmc behind me; success first time. Yes, the egg was from a 24 year-old donor, but I got my amazing baby in a way that I would have poo-poohed when I was not quite so desperate (or old).

Look at Lucie - she is going to the Czech, too, and using her own eggs. She will have success, I just know it. The clinics over there are second to none (and I don't believe Serum at Athens is superior to the Czech clinics, either, but Penny at Serum is a genius in her own right).

Please, Nomio (and anyone else whose thoughts about IVF are frightening or defeatist), try to see beyond the limits of your efforts so far. You have fought valliantly for your baby and there is no way I am letting you write this off. You haven't 'tried everything' - not by a long shot. Your body has never been supplied with the perfect dose of drugs tailored specifically for your body; your eggs have never been harvested and watched under time-laps video; they've never been assisted to hatch or covered with an embryo glue to aid implantation. Your husband's sperm has never been micro-analysed and the very very best of them injected (if necessary) into each egg.

I would never denegrate our brilliant NHS, despite the not-very-great success rates here in the UK - and if you qualify for three free rounds of IVF then that is super - but for £5k you can seek the best conception rates abroad and throw absolutely everything at your cycle knowing that you are doing all that is humanly possible to reach your baby. Moreover, you have a nice little holiday where you can just be together, focusing on your mission.

Please, please...allow yourself to dream of a team of experts bringing your baby to you. Four years is a horribly long time to have only got to the Clomid stage (by-the-way, were you told to start the drug on CD1, Nomio? I have never seen that before).

PurdeyPie · 16/03/2015 19:38

(Still on page 7..please bear with me. I've missed you all loads!)

Giddymamma · 16/03/2015 19:39

Aw thanks sparkly. Next cycle... X

Sparkly123 · 16/03/2015 19:41

Absolutely Giddy I'm willing those ovaries along!!!! Wink

Giddymamma · 16/03/2015 19:41

Ooh purdey, you've been missed!

PurdeyPie · 16/03/2015 19:46

...and can I just say, anyone who has been trying for more than eighteen months and hasn't been offered a lap & dye to see if they actually have two working fallopian tubes and no serious endometriosis or polyps or adhesions, has the shittest GP on the planet.

PurdeyPie · 16/03/2015 19:46

Hello, gorgeous Giddy! Still reading...!

Sparkly123 · 16/03/2015 19:49

There she is !!! I thought you had left the country Purds!! Grin

babsbunny · 16/03/2015 20:01

Hi gals! Hope you are ok. Just catching up.

Nomio, can't imagine the stress you've been through, but don't give up! Anyone who fights so long and hard for a baby will make an amazing mum. And it will happen Flowers

Sorry for the witch to those who have had a visit...excuse to eat Cake

Congrats for the bfps! Wow 5 in a few days!

I keep grabbing my boobs to see if they are sore. They're notSad

PurdeyPie · 16/03/2015 20:02

Sparkly! Darling! That photo blows me away! What the bloody heck is going on???! It is colossally unfair to see that (perfectly clear, to me) line and then to not be pregnant Sad And what the feck is that black clotting all about? I am thrilled that you are about to have your hysterosalpingography (ta-da!) I hope they find the solution to black blood, absurd early spotting and in the process wash your reproductive system out to such an extent that your womb is like a shiny new pin that welcomes an embryo the very next cycle. Knowledge Is Power, my love! Keep the faith Thanks

Lucie, I get goosebumps when you pop in to give us your updates. It's so bloody exciting. I am envious when I remember the booking-flights-and-cheap-accommodation stage. It is such a scary exhilarating ride! Yes, there are women who come home without a successful implantation, but your chances of getting your baby are so much higher now you are on this road. Please, please keep us in the loop every step of the way and thank you for updating us thus far. I will be praying for you, Lucie. Try to enjoy this lead-up and the drugs! you are on your way to being a mum Thanks

(On page 10...)

babsbunny · 16/03/2015 20:03

Prob not something one should do on a train...

Sparkly123 · 16/03/2015 20:10

Purdey I missed ya!!! Yes I am NEVER using ICs again. I had a horrible wobble and started to think I was having a cp or something thanks to that!! The frer negative coupled with more bleeding and clots tells me it's a def no! I can't say the fertility nurse was overly helpful but she didn't seem at all bothered about the old blood so...!
So HSG next Monday. Kinda peeing my pants seen as the Gynae told me she didn't think I would tolerate it will given my issues down there... My husband can't come in either so I think I'll be quite nervous. BUT.. I am totally hoping for a sparkly new womb! Is it possible to find cause of spotting from that?? I don't fancy the 4-6 week wait for the results!! (But I hope I'll get preggers next cycle after my clean out.. Right?!)Wink how are you??? Update us all when you can! I was thinking all sorts.. Finding you in a chocolate stained bath after an Overdose of twirls being number one on my list Shock

mrsb0710 · 16/03/2015 20:15

Just posting to say how much I love you all - squishy completely un-MNs hugs - even in the darkest, shittiest times, we all support each other.
And even when we all start getting our BFPs, no one is allowed off the bus!

Illiria · 16/03/2015 20:20

Will go back and read later today but I am out. Now to book an appointment with my OBGYN for fertility testing as it has been 12 months. I should be able to have 80% of my costs, not including meds, paid for using our insurance but it is still going to cost a lot if we need ivf.icsi. Not looking forward to the prospect of having to do possibility of treatment but I have two friends who have in the past 12 months had IVF babies so at least I have RL and mumsnet people to get advice. Off to buy a ps4 to cheer myself up :-)
