    Slap! *hug*

    You will get there. Remember they wouldn't be trying so hard if there wasn't hope.

    Sorry PM, I hope tomorrow brings better news for you. I know how you feel when you fear it will never happen for you, but like T2D says, they wouldn't do anything if there wasn't hope. I know how hard it is to stay positive, so I hope you can just take each day as it comes. X

    Hi peonie! *waves*

    Weird we were at same meeting :) How much paperwork is there?! Still not done all mine.

    We've got all our tests on fri.

    I think we will also be having treatment dec or jam but that's through our choice (dragging it out a bit). I think it'll fly by though!

    Maybe we will be treatment buddies and do a mrshappy/vseviour double bfp :)
    When I saw you went to the same meeting I started to wonder whether you were the blond one or the brunette one LOL. Or, were you the couple that came in 30 minutes late :naughty:

    There's loads of paperwork to fill in. I had a frank discussion with Mr P about whether I could use the embies if we broke up/he died etc. He agreed yes which is a good job as that could have started divorce proceedings! OK, I'm being a bit dramatic but you know what I mean. Strangely I don't recall that I had to sign anything that said he could use the embies if I died!

    WTDN, why do you want to drag it out? I'm an eager beaver and want to start the process NOW.

    Some friends were eager for their little boy to be born in August rather than September. I always thought September would be better as the child has those extra months of development before starting school. But they'd worked out it would cost them an extra £10,000 in child care costs :eek: That's 2 cycles of IVF :eek: At the end of the day I'd love to have a child any month of the year.

    Will you have to go back again for your CD 2/3/4 day blood test?

    IVF buddies would be great.

    Not quite in the same league as you ladies but my sinusitis thingy has recurred. I'm on my third course of antibiotics which aren't helping, the mucus is so thick it's just building up pressure on my face, and we can't even think about BDing because my face hurts too much and all the antibiotics have given me thrush. Everytime I get the thrush under control, the sinusitis recurs and I get a new antibiotic and I get thrush again.

    Oh, and these antibiotics aren't suitable for ttc because if by some miracle, I got pregnant, it would dissolve the bones and teeth of the foetus. That's a bit scary.

  • Good morning :)
    Hope all of you having a crappy time with doctors have more luck today. I have been really lucky with all the doctors/nurses I have seen, they have been fantastic.
    My OTD appointment is Friday, I phoned yesterday to ask about the scan as hubby is struggling to get time off on Friday, if he knew there would be a scan he would be there, but I have told him that it's fine for me just to go to on my own if not. They left me a message saying that they would give me a scan date on Friday. Having not got to this stage before I'm pretty clueless :)
    Today is going to be a long one-I got up at 4 ish to go to the loo and haven't managed to get back to sleep :( x

    Be honest. Were you awake as you were just unable to stop you brain shouting 'I'm pregnant! I'm pregnant! I'm pregnant!' :)
