Good luck Nichart and Runnerduck today:)
Sarah999, you are way too early to test at 9dpo

sarahs999

ooh, told off! BUt like I say, I've been pregnant four times and each time I've seen a v faint line at 9dpo.

Also I'm eating THE WORLD and its wife today. Sure PMT sign. I've had my lunch already and for breakfast I melted squares of dark chocolate on french bread. Premenstrual, moi?

Good luck Runner too!

Been to acupunture today which was good and she has given me an interesting book called is my body baby-friendly. Lots more to think about and digest. Trying not to think about it too much and get stressed.

Belly looks a nice colour of purple, black and yellow at the moment - damn those needles!

CCM - hope you have OV and good luck in 2ww x x

Sarah - hope there is still a chance and it's just too early x x

Juju - hope this cycle is going well for you when's your first scan x x

well I am now on 2WW with 2 on board 1 6 cell and 1 8 cell but they are both slightly fragmanted and he had a bit of trouble getting the right position too but nothing I can do just got to keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best x x

4th April is my first baseline scan then start stimming the day after.

After speaking to my acupunturist this morning we were discussing about why my embies are not implanting. There is this new thing were they test your immune system, bloods and natural killer cells in your body to see why implantation isn't happening, I wondered if anybody had any experience in this. This is apparently quite controversial and only done in a few places but America do alot of these tests everytime for IVF and they have a 80% success rate!.

Again its another costly thing to have done and I am not considering it this cycle but may do if I need to in the future. If anyone has any experience of this please share.

Runnerduck

hi all, bad news, a really detailed scan shows baby has stopped growing and deffinately no heartbeat, we are devastated, they want me to miscarry naturally as they feel it will be better for trying again hopefully within 2 months, something to focus on, they are monitoring me, just hope it will be over quickly now as knowing its dead inside me is awful, so i'm back with you girls again, got to try and be positive and focus on the future.

hope things are going well for the rest of you, good luck to all who need it:)

I am going to have the tests if I don't get a BFP this time as I have previously been told I have an overactive immune system. They do it at CARE and I would go to Nottingham but I think they also do this at Manchester and Sheffield they send level 2 bloods to chicargo for testing and these have to be done through Care but you can have level 1 anywhere. I think it's just over £1000 for the test 2 HTH x

Runnerduck I am so so sorry, thinking of you x x ((hugs)) x x

I'd love to have them, but seems rather expensive:o
I wonder what the cure is?

(((Hugs))). I felt the same when I found the baby died:( I had an op to remove the baby 3 days later.
