    Well done on 3 eggs Lucy, fingers crossed for fertilisation :)

    I phoned a different hospital yesterday to see if their waiting time for donor eggs is any shorter than the Nuffield and it's even longer and we would be starting from scratch with them, so I'm doing nothing but hanging around waiting for a donor now

    BigZ I have my fingers and toesies crossed that everything will be tickety boo for you, in fact very tickety as hopefully little one will be big enough for a heartbeat :)

    MrsH sucks that you have to wait, is there much 'matching' that needs to be done? like when you donate blood etc

    Becca good luck for friday!

    AFM i have new baby cousin. i think you can all guess how that makes me feel :o

    Big hugs Tea. You're not awful for feeling any of this so don't be hard on yourself. I just wish with all my heart things were different for you. :(

    Hope the lap goes well Peonie. Can kind of understand why you're looking forward to it although I don't like hospitals and have never had an operation so if it was me I'd be terrified! :o

    Nice to hear things are progressing nicely BZ. Will be thinking about you on Thursday. :)

    Big hugs for the new cousin TL. Your baby is just waiting for the perfect gap in your family's reproductive schedule so it doesn't have to share any glory with anyone else! :)

    Try not to be anxious about the FS Becca, this is a good thing and something to look forward to! Every appointment gets you closer to your baby. :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    1 egg fertilised. All 3 of them had ICSI, but by this morning the other 2 had degenerated, which they said was very unusual. So despite all my tests (AMH etc) being good, I think it's looking clear I have an egg quality problem.

    ET at 10am tomorrow morning, if my one egg makes it that far. Am in absolute bits today.
