You know the drill by now ...

Rules of Entry - must be over 30, TTC no. 1 for over a year, be suitably evil and Hag like, willing to shout Cunt at the moon on regular occasions, consume extra gin when our fellow hags are unable to, and to get the nipple tassles out for any successful Hag ...

No admittance without a complete BESHtionnaire - see below.

And I'm needle phobic too! But bollocks to it, I don't have the energy to worry about it. I'm probably more irritated about the cost of meds because I've no hope right now and really expect this to be a waste of money Hmm
Just waiting to see how I respond really, feeling like I can handle a BfN but will be pretty upset if nothing gets to blast stage .... Ah well, we will just have to wait and see

Hags, more house moving drama here. I cannot even.

There has been so much drama and stress lately, I just want a few weeks of nothing, nothing at all happening. No moving, no doctors, not being sick, not traveling. Just go to the office, go to the gym and eat soup and milk chocolate baguettes and watch First Dates (don't judge).

But it is not going to be possible for a while. Any tips for getting some energy and motivation back? If I pull through the next couple of weeks, I should be able to chill out a bit from mid March to mid April...

Blue2014 · 01/03/2016 09:30

I love First Dates!! No judgement from me as if I would ever be cool enough to judge

I have no real advice, all I've got is "Lee going", it's all I do! Or fuck it all, tell everyone you are sick and eat baguettes and watch to til you feel better Smile

OP posts:
Blue2014 · 01/03/2016 09:31

Or keep going Hmm but if Lee going helps feel free to use that too Confused

Ps. I am seriously going to hurt someone if they don't stop emailing round baby pics on this professional email thread!! Fuck the fuck off you baby obsessed losers! Seriously this is weird!! Its fucking work!!!

Blue I think you've nailed the response:

^Dear professional colleagues,
Fuck the fuck off you baby obsessed losers! Seriously this is weird!! Its fucking work!!!
Yours faithfully,
Blue.^

Erica Angry ditto. Our buyers say they absolutely must move by 11th. We want to move on 7th. Our vendors could do either. The fuckwits at the end of the chain say 16th.
16th is predicted ec. How the fuck do I move house whilst sedated? Or in the following days where it's too painful to move from the sofa?
And there's fuck all communication from the solicitors above ours. Total fucking ignorance. Vendor's solicitor is just 'waiting to hear on our connected sale'. Don't fucking wait you moron, pick up the sodding phone you complete muppet and pass on our bloody message!!!! Angry

Blue2014 · 01/03/2016 14:41

Grin oh Barking, that potential email reply really made me laugh and cheered me up, thanks!

Yeah I hate solicitors who just sit around - you are paid bloody well, do some work!!
Sorry it's so stressful - people are morons

Blue2014 · 02/03/2016 10:49

Why do the pregnant people keep following me around ?!!! I fucking hate them

OP posts:
Blue2014 · 02/03/2016 12:06

Hags, can i do a 2 hour train journey on the day of egg collection? It looks like my timings may be one day off and I've booked to travel to another town on what will likely be EC day

OP posts:
barkingtreefrog · 02/03/2016 12:57

Blue I wouldn't want to do anything after ec, I was properly spaced out and feeling quite uncomfortable. I definitely wouldn't want to be walking round a train station on my own.

Blue2014 · 02/03/2016 13:03

What kind of anaesthetic did you have barking ? Mr Blue will be with me but I guess I can try to change the dates. Gonna be stuck in Brno for a REALLY long time! Confused

OP posts:
Blue2014 · 02/03/2016 14:35

Ok, we maybe ok. I'm bleeding and they say today is day one as I'm almost full flow now. So I should get one day of rest on EC!
Bloody hell, this real now!

OP posts:
Blue2014 · 03/03/2016 08:59

Yay! I just stabbed myself for the first ever time!!! So proud of me (nearly chickened out as a needle phobic) but it's done and it was easy Smile

OP posts:
barkingtreefrog · 03/03/2016 21:35

Well done Blue

I stabbed myself in a communal changing room at the swimming pool today, with kids running around. I thought fuck it, why should I hide away in a manky toilet and balance everything when I can just sit on the bench with everything beside me?

EricaJ · 04/03/2016 06:02

Hags! In the middle of moving drama but will be back soon and I am crossing absolutely everything for you two!

Blue2014 · 04/03/2016 10:33

Thanks Hags.
Barking you Rock!!
Erica, good luck with the move!!

were there too many exclamation marks in that post?

OP posts:
Blue2014 · 08/03/2016 17:48

Hags did you hear about the latest miscarriage research? I couldn't hear all of it but something about stem cells with research at Warwick uni. I don't know whether it's of interest but wanted to mention it

OP posts:
EricaJ · 08/03/2016 18:23

Hey Blue!

How is it going? Stabbing like a boss!

Followed it a bit but once they mentioned something (I think) that they expect proper treatment to be available in 5 years so I just could not even...

What do you reckon, Barking?

barkingtreefrog · 09/03/2016 06:03

blue how's the stabbing going?
Erica how's the move? We're moving next Tuesday!!!

I had the same reaction to the news, nice it is happening, no use to me it's too late.
I'm on stims now. Three sodding injections, it's a right faff.

EricaJ · 09/03/2016 07:21

Barking Sort of moved but away with work at the moment so I reckon we won't be settled until the end of the month. But the horrendous negotiation/paperwork is done!Wine Wine Wine

Tuesday is so soon!

Yeah, did not mean to come across so negative but I don't reckon I will be on this sorry TTC wagon in 5 years time. Good for the younger ones/the ones with more energy than me!

I am doing an ostrich on the TTC front at the moment. I don't think my cycles have settled yet (6 weeks since the mc) and in terms of IVF, we are waiting for the sperm fragmentation results so pretty much pretending it is not happening!

Blue2014 · 09/03/2016 18:40

Ah I didn't hear all of it, they said something about using a currently available diabetes medication and I wondered if I brave clinic may consider it?

Erica, still stabbing like the scardy cat I am! I totally had Gonal f down and then had to add in cetrotide this morning, I cried last night looking at the larger needle (and trying to understand my telephone call with a Czech locum doctor!) but it's down now and I'll be over there from Friday so I can't actually cry at the clinic instead of my dining room table!

We've had a message suggesting 16th as a moving date, you know while I'm in another country ivf-ingHmm

OP posts:
Blue2014 · 09/03/2016 18:42

Argh posted too soon. Barking you rock, 3 injections is a faff but also brave. Erica, head in the sand is the best place to be, I love that place Smile

Today's professional meeting consisted of an early finish so we could talk about new babies Hmmincluding someone going off on maternity who was single a year and half after I married and started ttc. Yeah, good news, thanks for that ... Hmm

Blue2014 · 10/03/2016 08:12

Pissing house sale looks like it's fallen through. For fucks sake, can I get a break here?!!

OP posts:
barkingtreefrog · 10/03/2016 17:42

Oh, no, Blue, what's happened?

Blue2014 · 11/03/2016 15:21

Looks like our garden isn't ours at all but shared! Trying to figure it all out but may have to pull out. Desperately looking for other houses now.

Am in Czech now on second scan, 10 follicles in total. Egg collection Monday morning. Just a case of waiting now I guess .... Hope it's all going ok for you Barking.
