    BZ-hope you're doing okay.

    well, I've had chats with mrh and mum, and will be phoning the hospital on Monday to see when we can go again :o I have no idea if they like a gap or if we can get stuck into this cycle, had to go and buy folic acid again as it got chucked out in a huff last week after the BFN :o The money would be a gift, mum says she has hated seeing me so sad the last week or so :(

    Good luck clomid ladies, fingers crossed

    Wow, how lovely of your mum, mrsh! :A Really hope you get a better the best outcome this time :D


    I'm ok emotionally today thanks (dh really isn't though), but my migraine symptoms are making a resurgence - think it's ov+clomid related (so did doc) :cool: Hope they're not worse than last cycle! Think, if they are, I'll probably take a break from clomid next cycle.:cool:

    Hugs for tough times BZ, and everyone else struggling a bit just now x

    Congratulations Sarah, lovely news x

    Just as I'm beginning to feel a bit better mrh has hit a low spot-watching telly last night and a trailer came on for Child of Our Time with a dad talking about how becoming a dad had made his life worthwhile and was the best thing he had ever done etc etc :( I was telling my mum about it earlier tonight then got a phone call from her offering to pay for another try. To say my head is scrambled would be an understatement.

    Aww, mums are the best aren't they? If you're struggling with whether you can take the money, think of the gift she'd be getting back if you were able to give her a grandchild. Without overly pressurising yourself, IYSWIM :o

    Hi Mrs Happy, I'm sorry the treatment did not work for you last time. It's a wonderful gift your mum is giving :).

    I had my second blood test. I was prepared to wait an hour but only had to wait a second! Amazing. But now I have to wait for the FS appointment in April to get the results. :(

    Hi mrsh, I know all clinics are different. But we had to wait 3 months after our miscarriage (IVF), but we were able to start a new IVF cycle straight after a failed one. But I guess you'll have to see what they say and also judge how you feel physically and mentally too.

    I feel a little bit in shock posting this. I only seem to be able to get pregnant in February and then get a BFP on my birthday. It seems this year is following that rule.

    My birthday today and I got this.
