    Woohoo!!! Congratulations T2D!!! What wonderful news!!!

    Fingers crossed WTDN for our weekend hat-trick.

    AFM; been to the hairdressers today and fancied a change so I had about 7 inches cut off; I am currently "Bobbed" and keep getting a shock when I catch my reflection. DH & I are off to Rome on Monday for 4 days so very exciting times!! Hope the forecast picks up as it's forecast rain! We've just had a sweet conversion about if we conceive naturally in Rome we'd pick an Italian name.

    That's very sweet danieely. Did I tell you guys the conversation dh and I had when he came to the ec? It was at Chelsea and Westminster hospital. He said 'you know this thing about naming kids where they are conceived? We are NOT calling our child Chelsea!'

    So Westminster is a viable name then...

    We thought if the embryos were 'grown' in EEVA a good name for a girl would be Eve (just taken by one of our friends) or Eva and Embryoscope would be Emma.

    Big congrats T2D :T. I'm made up for you. How are your Aussie plans?

    Hello follie four. Where are you in your cycles?

    PM I hope the bleeding stops very soon.

    And "&" if we were hippies. ;) I know a recent Eva too.

    Aussie plans are out the window! We always said if this worked we would wait here. Visa won't come through til March, and by the time we sold the house and got ourselves moving it would be too late. I have been warned I could be put on bedrest somewhere in the early week 20's. I've heard of people being put on bedrest at 16 weeks with no cervix.

    Looking well down the road (as you can't help doing) I can also use my Mat leave. And put the feminist cause back by taking the paid mat leave, then resigning! But it means we can move over with a salary still being paid for a few months. If all goes to plan, something which has never yet happened, we would still be there by Christmas.

    Our IVF will be in Oxford, don't fancy that as a name though. The address is Alec Issigonis Way, perhaps we could use Alec. Or Issigonis...

    I actually know someone who called her son Oxford! He prefers to be called Occy now he's a bit bigger.

    Ahhh the designer of the Mini.


    Ov cramping today, so looks as though I actually may have times things in the end well.
    Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.
