Haha gamblers I work in IT so I can put together a thread & post a link but acronyms make my brain hurt 😂
I must admit floof I too have been worrying about the odds 😩 but hoping we just have a magical lucky thread 🙏🏼

Girls don't worry about odds that was exactly my feelings when the positives came on here but look what happened! We're all spread all over the UK so it's diluted it's not like we're all at the same clinic 😘

thegamblersmrs · 22/08/2017 19:03

We are from all over and all with different conditions so hopefully we are the positives from all the groups. Does that make sense? I'm groggy and on my 7th hour of watching tv. Losing my mind.

thegamblersmrs · 22/08/2017 19:04

Jinks leanne touch wood, you can't move until someone says your name!! 😂😂

Whatamuddleduck · 22/08/2017 19:07

Woohoo Leanne! Aww I'm so pleased and bloody amazed that you didn't poas. (I held out until day 3!). Enjoy being pregnant- because you are!

Anyone else been left with a big belly? I'm usually fairly slim but have a weird bulge now, it's like the drug bloating partially went down and left a big lump!

MelbourneClown03 · 22/08/2017 19:13

@Leanne1185 OMFG!!!!! You ripper. You did itGrinGrinGrin I'm so happy for you.

Please, please let this be a lucky streak. As each positive comes through, I feel like the lucky streak may run out for us still waiting to testSad
POSITIVE THINKING NEEDED!!!

Leanne1185 · 22/08/2017 19:20

Thanks guys!! Haha gamblers that just made me actually lol!! Xx

thegamblersmrs · 22/08/2017 19:30

Glad you got it! Wasn't sure if it was just my friends that did that.
*
Clown* remind me what stage you're at?

Who's our bfps now and how many of us are still to have et and 2ww. Feel like I'm the slow one of the group except who was on 30 days of stims!

Missmeluk · 22/08/2017 19:37

Hey everyone just caught up. So OH had final scan on Monday said there were 18 follies on one side and about 10 on the other she was in real pain the day before the scan so we were really hoping they had grown and seems most are between 15-20.

Booked in for EC tomorrow morning so nervous and just hope that they get plenty of eggs (we're egg sharing so obviously will only get half of the eggs for ourselves)

Congrats Leanne on you bfp that's such good news. I'm trying to keep on top of everyone's progress but so difficult.

Quick question as I am having the embryos transferred to me but I didn't have the trigger injection as using oh eggs does that mean I would be able to test earlier??

So glad to be at the next stage of the journey but also don't want to get too ahead of myself as it could all still go wrong. Back at the work on Thursday so hopefully that will keep me occupied.

Floofles · 22/08/2017 19:59

Gawds I wish I had to put on weight, still really need to lose about 3 stone (I say 'still' like I've bloody started, which I haven't)
I'm blaming the 4 pound increase firmly on stims (it's me on day 29!!!) And am hoping it goes away when I'm back to reality or preferably increases as I turn into a whale yaaaay

In regards to wedding going - poor DH actually can't drink (probably) because nurses prediction is I will feel considerably worse before I feel better and I don't want to be driving while I'm so dizzy/nauseated!
On the upside bridesmaids dress is very forgiving so I won't feel too much like a complete dumpling hopefully!

I'm hoping we're all good luck charms for each other!!! You're right about us being from all over and with different condition so hopefully this is the luckiest thread ever!!!

In regards to a WhatsApp, I'm happy to set that up if people want to. Was thinking could pm numbers so they're not on a public group haha!!!

Leanne1185 · 22/08/2017 20:10

I'm happy to whatsapp xx

Floofles · 22/08/2017 20:11

Also Mel that's so exciting!!!

Floofles · 22/08/2017 20:12

So re WhatsApp if anyone who wants to be on a WhatsApp group PM's me their number I'll set up a group chat Grin

thegamblersmrs · 22/08/2017 20:14

I've no idea how to pm, I'm on the app and I don't see an option!
My first ever whatsApp group chat!!! Ha ha

Leanne1185 · 22/08/2017 20:15

Yeah instructions on how to pm required for my blonde head 😂

thegamblersmrs · 22/08/2017 20:16

Blonde? I've had you as brown/auburn!

Leanne1185 · 22/08/2017 20:17

😂😂😂 oh worked it out online it's the 3 wee dots next to floo's name! Don't know bout the app x

thegamblersmrs · 22/08/2017 20:19

Dam. Don't know if I can log in online cos I've no idea of my password. Ill see!

thegamblersmrs · 22/08/2017 20:22

Did it! So much easier to read the group on safari. Ps I felt like I was in an aol chat room circa 2002 sending my number there! Grin

BiscuitBill · 22/08/2017 20:50

I'm on app also! And I had been guessing people's hair colour based on their emojis they use 😂 it's so strange how well all have the pre conception of how every one will look!

OP posts:
thegamblersmrs · 22/08/2017 20:55

Bill glad I'm not the only one!

ChoChang · 22/08/2017 21:09

Sent mine over too floof Smile

Feeling completely sick. Been eating chicken eggs and icecream and drinking milk like a mad woman for the last couple of days to try and get my follies to grow for scan tomorrow. I hope they have cos i cant take any more!

Floofles · 22/08/2017 21:30

Haha I hadn't actually considered at all how anyone looks!

I actually have no idea how to pm, but turns out I can read them and reply!!!
I can use WhatsApp though relatively proficiently thank gawds!!!

Lola84 · 22/08/2017 21:45

@floofles. I've sent my number to you hope I've done it right 🙈

MelbourneClown03 · 22/08/2017 22:25

@Floofles Ahhh! I'm going to have to log on using my laptop tomorrow, as I can't seem to PM using the app on my iPad Angry

After crashing out on the sofa at 7.45 this evening, I have managed to stumble up the stairs in to bed. I really can't face trudging back down to get the laptop and charger.
