ive done icsi with both ivfs but still no go xxxx im so clued up/too clued up on ivf just wish i wasnt on this rollercoaster, i dont leave the house often as i cant cope around babies, i just get very tearful, i have good and bad days, more good at the moment than bad, i wont give up till i hit 40, ive had every test and examination possible and it all stems to a past cancer issue but all tests show that , that didnt affect my fertility,hence us seeking opinions across europe xxx i wish u all luck, i gave up poas years ago as my cycle is often late and it hurts so bad seeing a bfn xxxx#JusticeForGrenfell0

hisorry prob is that gel miss read a previous post. where do you get that pre-seed from getting desperate now, silly isnt it, think if I finally get pregnant i will pass out with shock!!
No problem
I was going to recommend getting it from accessdiagnostics but have found another site where it is slightly cheaper, both offer free postage.
http://www.accessdiagnostics.co.uk/acatalog/Pre-Seed.html Here's the ad link (you need the 3rd product down)
Their prices are £7.29 for 3 applications or for better value a box of 6 applications for £10.99
http://www.smefertility.com/pre-seed-sperm-friendly-lubriant-from-575-13-c.asp
This is the other site I found. They do the 3 pack for £5.75 or the 6 pack for £9.99.
Also they (accessdignostics) have very good prices for buying pg test sticks in bulk if you need some......
http://www.accessdiagnostics.co.uk/acatalog/Early_home_pregnancy_test_offer.html
I would personally recommend accessdiagnostics over sme as I have bought from them before, the delivery is very quick and the packaging is discreet.
I have got some pre-seed but haven't got round to using it yet so can't comment on it. I did read a couple of reviews before buying it though and some women said its a bit trial and error, some of them only use half an applicator because there is quite alot in them (you have to throw the other half away if not used apparently)

Congratulations Greent!!! Have a happy pregnancy!
I couldn't resist and took a test this morning. BFN, of course. I am on CD24/28. My temp is well above the usual post-OV, so I couldn't resist the temptation. But I think the real explanation to the temperature might be the silly cough I have this morning! I might do another test in a few days, before going away...Spring into Spring 2015 - 0.7/12lb0 -
Many congrats greent!

Glad you are still around Lilo!
And Hello & Welcome Toniq.
I'm sad to hear that you have had so many probs TTC, but am inspired by your persistance. would be really pleased to hear about your IVF experience in other countries, as if this next round of ICSI doesn't work I'm going to be looking into this myself.....
I know what you mean about the age thing....for me, as 40 creeps ever closer, I keep thinking that maybe I can still try until I'm 41, 42.... etc etc. my problem is that DH has 10 years on me and def. doesn't want to be a new dad again (he has kids from previous marriage) after he's 50. So we did agree that we would stop....but I just don't know if I will be able to.
as for me.....Well, it seems really odd that I've spent years praying for AF NOT to come, and this month I really need her to be on time and she's not here! The FC wants me to have LH/FSH bloods done on day 1 to 5, but we go on holiday on Sat so unless the darn witch arrives today I won't be able to get them done tomorrow morning (have an appointment booked - just in case).
We can go ahead with the ICSI cycle even without them, but she would much rather have them if poss.
Problem at the mo' seems to be my blood pressure - I've never had high BP before, but the FC read it as 167/96 and I had it done again at the GP's and it was 156/93, which the nurse said is still high.
Can anyone tell me what is a 'good' or 'normal' BP?
Apart from being at work, I have tonnes of things to get done in the next 2 days - coursework, sorting stuff for hols, packing, medical forms to fill in & post...but I'm finding it really hard to concentrate and have to keep running to the loo all the time to 'knicker-check'.....The best advice you can give your children: "Take responsibility for your own actions...and always Read the Small Print!"

TTC with FI - RIP my 2 MC Angels - 3rd full ICSI starts May/June 2009 - BFP!!! Please let it be 'third time lucky'..... EDD 7th March 2010.0 -

HTH
Hi again - just a quickie - when I used preseed I found there was too much in one pippette so I used about half and kept the other half in the fridge (but not when the DSK's were due to stay - LOL!) in a resealable plastic bag. As long as you use it in about 48 hours it is meant to be OK....but do try to remember to take it out of the fridge for an hour or so beforehand if you can....or it is darn cold on your bits!!!!!!!The best advice you can give your children: "Take responsibility for your own actions...and always Read the Small Print!"

120/80 is perfect blood pressure - "high" bloodpressure is when it's "consistently" over 140/90.DFW Nerd #025DFW no more! Officially debt free 2017 - now joining the MFW's!

Thanks! :-)
My BP tends to be around 100/65 - used to be 90/60, but age & more weight have helped it creep up I guess! I tend to stay the same throughout pgs too - don't know if everyone does?
Hope you have a great hol - relax & enjoy :-)

Congrats Greent x my blood pressure is classed as low (around the 90/60 mark) and it stayed the same through both of my pregnancies - only prob I had with that was I had a tendency to faint (especially near the ned of pregnancies) so was advised not to take hot baths and be careful not to stand up too quickly - so go careful with you (as my mum would say!) x0
