So sorry to hear this hun. Try and stay positive though. Enjoy Christmas and start getting prepared for what the new year will bring. At least now you won't have the worry of injections and waits etc and you can just enjoy the festive period? Gives you plenty of time to get your body ready for IVF as well such as multi-vitamins etc and your fellas xxx

Exactly. Everything happens for a reason (that's what I keep telling myself anyway). You wouldn't want to go through IVF as well as bad IBS, it's draining enough with one of those let alone both together xxx

Thanks for your kind words x

Hi Shell 1402 I am in the same boat, I called yesterday and they said the same. I have to call on my next cycle again but I doubt anything will happen now till Jan. As you say the waiting for everything is so difficult, it totally consumes you. Hopefully a lovely chilled festive break will get you ready for a good start to treatment. Wishing you lots of luck xx
