    LA your normal cycle means nothing at all, it will be all messed around due to the drugs. EC is effectively OV x

    *de-lurking*

    hi lovely ladies, hope you don't mind me de-lurking to say a few words of thanks to those who have helped, encouraged and inspired me along my TTC journey. We had our 8 week scan yesterday and all is well with our one wee baby, so I finally feel that I move to the <12 week thread.

    Tea - very best of luck with your cycle and thanks for all the amazing advice and support you gave me (and give everyone else).

    PM - same as above re the support. I have all my figures crossed that your funding gets sorted soon and that you can start on drugs again.

    RG/Fairy/Frozen - thank you for being the best cycle buddies ever! Your support and encouragement was amazing and very much appreciated.

    Best of luck to all those starting treatment or going through it at the moment, Star and Lisa - congrats on being PUPO, sending you lots of sticky vibes!

    Love - good luck for EC tomorrow! They found 3 extra in me so there might be some extra hiding!

    Isla - good luck to you too! My advice would be don't make any decisions on future treatment yet, things/emotions change in the world of TTC so keep your options open. Fingers crossed you don't need to worry about that though as this cycle will be the one!

    Code - thanks to you too for all your support. I hope that you and DH find the right path for you when you are ready.

    I am sure that there are others who I will have missed off the list who have offered freely of their time and advice to me and others, so thank you to all of you for the help, advice, comfort, cheer-leading, encouragement and more that you give. I know my journey would have been a heck of a lot harder without this board and you lovely ladies.

    Wishing baby dust to everyone and hoping that our forever babies are just around the corner. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread, in a non-stalker way!

    hugs,

    SewIt xxxx

    Lovely to hear from you sweit, and glad everything is going so well for you

    Fingers, eye, legs and toes crossed for you Lisa.

    Someone has brought a baby into work :(
  • Oh picklekin, I know that feeling all too well - the screaming, the cooing and the general noise and faff. Is there anywhere you can escape to for 10 mins? If all else fails, I always find the toilets are a good hiding place til the fuss dies down. xxx

    Glad you've got 2 excellent embabies on board Lisa, fingers crossed they carry on this good behaviour.

    I'll be stalking you too, I have everything crossed that this is the one (or two..!)

    Frozen - hope the review goes well, write it all down, or you'll forget half the things you were planning on asking! Thanks for updating me on the list btw - I may as well think positively, thinking negatively never got anyone anywhere! I'm feeling modestly confident, the ICs are getting darker, which didn't happen the last 2 times. I'll maybe have another go on a CB Digi in a week or two to see if there's a change on there, which might give an indication. And I'll get an early scan at 8-10 weeks.

    Pinkteapot - sorry you have such a lot of your plate. Diazepam is really good, if that might help..?!

    Sewit - glad all is going so well!

    Tinks - many congrats, here's hoping the sticky vibe is universal!

    tea I really want AF to hurry the heck up so we can be cycle buddies! So mad it's late when I just want to get started! *does AF dance*

    lisa Huge congratulations on being PUPO. Sending you lots of super sticky baby dust. That's fantastic news you have such high quality embies on board.

    pinkteapot I'm so glad to to hear you're feeling a bit better and got some advice. CD1 is a crappy day.

    good vibes Glad you're getting on okay. Hope your scan goes well!

    loveactually Woo hoo for no more injections! Hope everything goes really well for you tomorrow.

    SewIt Great to hear from you, I'm so glad your scan went well. Hope you have a healthy and happy pregnancy :)

    picklekin Hugs to you, it's always hard when the little people come into work.

    frozenpenguin I hope your review appointment goes okay tomorrow and that you get some answers.

    skaps Welcome to the thread! Hope your stay is short in the best possible way :)

    AFM still no sign of AF and now on 1000mg of Metformin. I'm hoping the Met doesn't run riot again with the increased dose but more than that I just hope that AF blinking well shows up so I can get started!
