Thanks for all your wishes.

We arrived at the clinic 1 hour too early - w were worried that the roads are going to be horrible and in the end it was the shortest journeys of all!

Anyway, I changed into gown, etc, went to the procedure room, and embryologist came in for a chat. She said our little embryo was misbehaving - it was going ahead of its time and we had 6 cells!!!! (It should be 4 at that time, but nothing to worry). We were shown the embryo on the screen - little cluster of cells. Transfer went well, and I had a couple of tears. It took so long (it feels for me, although I know that others had tried longer) to get here and it is the closest I have been to being pregnant.

Anyway, OH wanted to go to Liverpool for lunch (Wagamama), and we had a bit of an argument, and I stormed off... All I wanted was some rest, not trawling through Liverpool (and he hates shops), and in the end I ended up spending 3 hours there. Anyway, all is fine - we had kunch, got home, our boiler is still not on, so I went of to do our weekly food shopping and now we have roasted some chesnuts in the ove, I am making some muffins, next the bread is rising to go in the oven and another batch of muffins. This will warm up the hosue a little bit. Hopefully... The guy is still working today, and it looks like the boiler might be fired up tonight - fingers crossed. We slept in the lounge on the floor last night, and I kept gas fire on for as long as I could before falling asleep and switched it on as soon as I opened my eyes - it was 14 C in the room!!!

Ginvzt, it's all looking good for you! i'm so pleased you have a little embaby on board. We only put the one day 3 embryo in, and we had good news...

Aww, congrats on being pupo ginvzt! Little emby sounds eager to grow!

You and all your baking is making me want to bake some bread...not tonight though cos were heading out again soon. Fingers crossed your boiler will be fixed soon!

Staffiecat - hopefully having us lot to off load onto will help lift your mood when you're feeling down.

Me and oh started Christmas shopping today, but really stuck for inspiration as it feels like we've already bought everything we can think of in the past 12 years! Managed to get half presents for two people, a pressy for myself and a little cost for mils dog. Got to buy for about 20 people - eek!

Boiler is working!!!!! The only thing off is the ensuite shower (the one we use), as that is still connected to hot water cylinder (with no water in it). He will sort it out on Monday. I don't care - as long as I have warm house! We can always use electric shower.

I have been organised this year - started about 2 weeks ago with the Christmas shopping (Amazon Black Friday Sales), and I am almost sorted. I am still thinking to order the webcam for OH (he already is getting the speakers for computer), and need to finish the presents for a couple of friends that are coming next weekend for our Christmas get-together. We are making presents for each other (did this last year for the first time), so I have made some jams and going to bake Panettone (fingers crossed it will work).

We only have one person left that we are stuck - OH's dad. But I am leaving that to OH...

Congratulations on the embaby, Gin! He sounds eager. Good luck now with surviving the 2ww. Time the break out those House DVDs?

++++++++++

I'm now in the 1ww - testing next Sunday, CD28, which will be 12dpo. Right now, I don't feel pg, but I guess at 5dpo it's be too early to feel anything anyway.

I have massive toothache, but daren't take any ibuprofen.

Have a good day everyone!
