Part Mouse - Huge hugs to you, I wish I knew you in real life so I could give you a real one! You've been treated so crappily - would you like all us ladies to muster a protest march to your doctor and local PALS group? I'm up for it if everyone else is! (and you absolutely *do* belong on here with all of us and feel free to rant as much and whenever you want!) xxx


Wonder_Woman - Fab news about your scan! Fingers crossed everything else goes well too. :j xx


Mrs Davo - Good luck for your wedding and the next 12 months, take care of yourself and (in the nicest possible way) I hope we don't see you back on here next year. xx


Love - Good luck for ET tomorrow! I found the whole thing relatively easy compared to everything else although I was rather silly and shed a few tears. The nurses were lovely though and said it's completely normal. xx


AFM - Just quietly DR-ing at the mo :cool:
Also ladies, can I show something to you? I have my own blog, it't nothing special, just yet another "lifestyle" blog but I have shared our IVF journey on there.
I came out at the weekend (so to speak) about the fact that our February treatment hadn't worked and tried to write it so that the average person would be able to understand the whole process. It's [Removed] if you fancy a look (and I won't be offended if you don't). Also you get to see my ugly mug and put a face to the name


This is the third time I've written this post (bl**dy computer :mad: ) so apologies to anyone I've missed - huge hugs to everyone though xxx

Can I just say, I hate flipping mothers day!!

Grrr.

Part_Mouse

Fp just had a quick look at your blog and looks good, its nice being able to put a face to a name. Will have a proper look see when I'm awake.

Im pretty angry at the way I've been treated through out it all. I seem to have this really strange prob of never ov with pcos which in its self is pretty common but my womb lining just keeps coming away. Hormones with depression is a terrible combo and being left for months on end is at best very frustrating.i still have half a bottle of wine left just didn't feel like it. Going back to bed in a min, need to shift this constant black cloud.

Code it sure sucks doesn't it. FB is full of happy mothers days posts.huge hugs to you hun.

Wonder_Woman

Thanks for doing the list Frozen, loving your blog :cool:

PM hope you can get some rest. I'm definitely up for the protest march! *grabs placard* xxx

Part_Mouse

Ww sounds like a plan.night all.

tea_lover
