Still reeling from the election result yesterday. There are two things that matter to me more than anything. Education and the NHS. Education is fucked
. And there's no chance of getting rid of the postcode lottery for fertility treatment
. Rich people will get richer still and they'll send their kids to private schools and use private healthcare. Meanwhile they'll meddle and mess up the lives of those who don't have an option
.
Anyway, just had to get that off my chest...
brummie bump envy and she's got two kids?! Try no kids, mcs, repeated unsuccessful fertility treatment and trying for a fourth year!!!
This is why I stay off mn in general, I just come on here and my infertility threads!!
Your client sounds great, that's exactly how you want people to be.
March I would definitely be having words. Bringing a baby into a working environment is downright unprofessional and a distraction for everyone trying to work, regardless of their situation. I wouldn't be able to handle that at all. A part time lady at our place sometimes pops in to sort stuff out on days when she's not working, and brings her three year old. That kills me. The office is my safe place (other than when pg colleague was around, but she's on maternity now), I can't handle kids in situations where I'm not expecting to have to deal with them.
monten Sorry you had a fight. I'm lucky in that the division of labour in pur house is pretty even, but I'm the one that organises stuff. If I don't, nothing happens. That does wind me up sometimes.
sun sorry about your boss

Excellent work on getting the scan changed jady
Sasha a great blog post. You forgot Thornbury hospital in Sheffield for the nk cells as well! I'm obviously not bigging it up enough
. I have to say I find your blog quite difficult to read and it has to be a good day when I'm feeling strong for me to click on one of your links, just because of the scan picture at the top. It might just be me who finds scan pictures distressing, but thought I'd mention it, hope you don't take that the wrong way.
Well done on telling work. Management know at my work (and about all the ivf etc as obviously I was in and out for appointments etc,) but it's not general knowledge as the majority of the staff are aged 19-24 (and quite young for their age) and I don't think they'd have a clue.
In my world, acupuncture made me feel a little better this week, I've been struggling emotionally recently. The main thing still tearing me up is the financial thing, trying to decide whether to spend money that I had saved for moving house on moving house, or whether we need to keep it for ivf and not move house
. And trying not to get
about the fact that if I lived elsewhere I might not need to as the NHS would pay
.
So I'm throwing myself into exercise as usual! This week I've been running, swimming and cycling, in fact on Wednesday I did all three, as well as to a strength and conditioning class last night. If I can't get pg, and this month I can't even try (and probably next month as well if we're away when the biopsy could be done) I might as well get fit!
