Right, i'm up to date with all my blogger buddies and even managed a few comments on the way.
Now, i'm off to stay here in Mallorca first thing tomorrow until Tuesday, so if you could all refrain from writing anything until I get back that would be just dandy.
As that NaCom-thingy starts on Sunday, I fear i'm going to have some heavy catching up and commenting to do come tuesday. Just don't be writing too much!
Have a lovely weekend all of you

A London couple's struggle to conceive
.
About Me
- Portia P
- I'm a 43 year old ex Londoner just moved to Hertfordshirewith my gorgeous husband. Attempt to multiply began "in sin" but, just after our wedding, tests revealed severe MF meant we could try all we liked but without a modern day miracle - or at least the wonders of science, we'd always be two. We were instantly launched into a whole new world of acronyms - the land of ART. After two and a half years trying to escape back to a world where full names rule, at the grand old age of 39 yrs and 11mths, I gave birth to our little miracle and two became three. Almost exactly 2 years later, our one frozen embryo turned into our second miracle and we are four. Still amazed and grateful.

did I read write? you had 100% abnormal sperm??? and you are pregnant! OMG, that is wonderful, please stop by and tell me more, I'm going on IVF #3 (hopefully) in CCRM. My local RE told sent out sperm for testing, he said if even 50% were abnormal, we were done! of course, CCRM disagreed but I'd love to hear a success story!!goign to check your blog more...
