    Will do Star. Is that what you were expecting? Or did you get bad SA news today?

    Hugs, and yay for a real plan quite soon. :)

    The consultant did all the tests over a year ago, but at that time when needed ICSI was no funding on NHS as too young. When I went this week she said she wouldn't redo all the test but needed updated bloods, so I have the blood test slip and need to do next week (day 2-5) then she will send off the referral form we completed with the results when back to CCG. She says its about 3 weeks for funding approval to come through and that Woking have no real waiting list as such so looking at end Jan/Feb for treatment as my cycle starts at end of each month.

    Ha ha! Is it even better hot water bottling if its an eeyore hot water bottle?

    And you can never use too many exclamation marks!!!

    Ooooo sounds exciting Derby.
    Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.

    Hugs Vesper - it sucks big time! Like tea, I believe our bodies wait until we start to get a wee tiny bit of hope, and then, boom, it slaps you down again. x

    Derby - wow, fantastic news! Lets hope your eggies got jiggy last night!:j

    PM - how's the injections?

    T2D - well done, 8 even sized follies is great! I know I won't take my own advice when the time comes, but try not to compare to the last cycle. You've done great! :T

    Gelly - welcome!

    Hugs to all, xx

    Derby wonderful news, got everything crossed for you for sun.

    Sewit, not ure if the injections are doing much, only having weekly scans and bloods ATM as nothing's happening. On mon it will be 2 weeks of injecting. Getting quiet worried now though that all won't be done by the time my fs is away.
  • Ooh how exciting Derby - bet you can't wait until Sunday! I have everything crossed for you.

    T2D - you're growing nicely too.

    Part - hope the injections don't sting too much.

    I can feel myself getting so impatient about having to wait. But at least with christmas coming up it means we have something to take our minds off everything.

    xx
  • Derby That's fantastic!!!!!! I'm so happy for you :j

    PM good luck with your next scan & blood test. Has your FS given you a plan B for when she's on holiday?

    Littleme & star I hope your wait feels short and you have a fab Christmas.

    AFM started spotting today and it's about the time I think implantation should have just finished. It could also be pre-AF spotting (that I have every cycle). Added to the cramps and feeling that time has come to halt I think I want to sleep until OTD :eek:. My clinic doesn't offer blood HCG tests so I have to rely on my home PTK; does anyone else's clinic do the same thing?
