    Hello,
    Sending love to all having a hard time just row.
    The hospital nearly gave me heart failure today-2 missed calls from the embryologist asking me to phone back asap, phoned back, she was with another patient, cue a nail biting hour until she call back. Anyway, I have 5 donor eggs, all suitable and all have been ICSI'd with motile sperm :D Will phone tomorrow to see how fertilization is going with the intention to transfer on Saturday :)
    Tea- my OH has had a really hard time dealing with and accepting we needed a bit of help, especially the donor egg stuff, I wish I knew what was going on his head to be able to reassure him x

    Yikes! I'm really excited for you! It brings it all back for me... happy days (and nerve-racking!).

    Hi can I join you lot again, I've been missing in action for a while so don't really know any one on the ttc thread anymore. And I know the majority of you from there.
    We took a break from the forums as it was getting too much seeing people having been on there 5 minutes get pregnant and go off again, so think here is the place for me even though I've still not seen the doctors about ttc.
    Short history, but due to events a year ago I was told by a different nurse to my surgery that it was very unlikely that anyone would help me on my endeavour as I had been suffering depression, and I was a big risk of post natal depression. But have got an appointment in a couple of weeks to get the ball rolling at the very least.
    I know I am not at the stage that you are all at, but please can I stay here. Your advice is very much appreciated on what to expect.
    Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.

    Welcome back Vesper. I must admit I saw you on the 'people we haven't seen in a while' on the TTC thread and always thought 'I'm sure she is around!'.

    I'm still around! And you are welcome here of course.
  • Hi ladies, Hi vesper
    All sounds good Mrshappy :)
