Hi ladies!!
OMG, how beautiful is Agios Nikolaos in Crete?!!! It is goooooorrrgeeeoouuss!! Loved every minute there, ate sooo much I'm surprised we weren't charged for extra personal baggage, lol! 
Weather was glorious, people are wonderful and friendly, food is amazing, the place itself is stunning, generally in love with the place!! Def will go back!So, had a quick read and can't really remember what was written now! LOL! But want to say to Scarlett that I'm sorry to hear of your sad news and hope you'e doing ok. Am very pleased you are going to go ahead with treatment again in Dec tho and I will be keeping fingers and toes crossed for you!
My hospital appt with the consultant to discuss what we do next isn't until 17th November!!!!
Oh well, not much I can do about that! I'm sure the time will fly by! So IVF won't be until next year, but heym new year new beginning! 
Well, I have no more news really, not been home long enough to have anything happen, lol! Will try and pop on individual threads later, work a bit busy!
Love to all! xxxx

Hey JFC,
Are you back off your jolies yet???? How was Crete? Hope you had a fab time. I can't wait to hear all of your stories....come on spill the beans young lady!!!!!
I haven't really been on Bounty much recently and I know you said you had probs accessing my diary again, so thought I would give you an update here. I've had quite a lot going on to be honest. I had a death in my family so was busy with that and the funeral. Then I also had my little nephews 1st birthday party which was brillant fun!!! Work has been really busy but I think my existing contract is going to come to an end, so I may be out of work at the end of October. In terms of treatment, I think we will start again in December. Still need to discuss it properly.
Anyway, hope you're ok hon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

have a fab holiday. i'll keep my eye on the bbc news site for news of chaos and deportations in crete lol. i have heard that the best back treatment is relaxing in the sun with regular c***tail intake and make sure you keep your tummy permenantly full of good food too, its the only true back cure.
have fun, katxxx
ps. my big news is that my chickens have called of their strike action and are laying eggs again ....... not much happens in my world hehe.

Oh hunny, I'm sorry it didn't work for you this time (((((((((((HUGS))))))))))). What a devastating blow for you and dh.
I think Crete really does need to watch out for your arrival
Only joking hun - you go and have an absolutely whale of a time and overindulge in everything - if I can be sick off alcohol then so can you 
I do like how you have a positive outlook (I think it helps). You will have your dream, unfortunately some of us have to wait a little longer than others but boy, will it be worth it!!

5/9/08 17:13
Aaaw, Jo! I love you!
You make me smile. I may still have a little sob tonight, once the alcohol has taken hold, lol! But mostly I like to think positive on days like this. I've suffered from depression in the past (over very separate issues, looong story!) and I never want to walk that road again. So I do what I can to keep me from going there again. It could be why I'm a little whacky, lol!
Through suffering from that depression I realized I had so much good in my life and I wasn't going to let anyone or anything spoil it. One of my crazy dreams actually got me back on track. It made me see that wallowing wasn't helping me, I was only making myself feel worse. So I just sucked it up, put on a smile and went out there to get my life back. I put the past behind me, forgave some ppl who may/may not have deserved forgiveness. I can't allow bad feeling to take over my life. It worked a treat and I have never looked back. Anyway, preach over, lol! I'm off in a mo so you ladies have yourselves a wonderful weekend! xxxx

Wow that was quick. It is a really good thing to see your consultant rather than keep going for IUI I guess he will be able to discuss some stats with you and then you can all make the decision what is best to do.
JFC you are a wonder but don't forget it is OK to feel sorry for yourself and take some time to be sef indulgent. We all do it!
If you are anything like me though having something to aim for helps me get over a BFN and I think that strong positive attitude is what will get you your BFP. It will not dare to not show up! Although IVF is a tough ride you have good odds of it delievering and it will be well worth it in the end.
I think I am going to start a JFC fan club! You rock my girl!!!
5/9/08 16:25
Wow, well the nurse has called me back already! The consultant has reviewed my file and wants to see me & DH again so we can discuss where we go from here.
So my guess is that means he will suggest IVF. I think as the 3 IUI attempts have been textbook that he'll probably see further IUI attempts as just wasting time. Which is ok by me since I have that maternal family history of early menopause. So, having had the day to get used to my BFN and think things through, I'm happy to go with IVF as soon as the list allows for it. I had thought I would wait until March at least to start the treatment but I've decided to just go for it at the earliest opporunity.So, I shall let you know when my appt will be! Thanks again for all your support!
xx5/9/08 14:03
Thanks Kat & Jo.
LMAO @ the ppl of Crete not being ready for me & DH! Probably not, poor folks!
I'm going to get my neighbour to teach me some Greek before I go, that should embarrass the hell out of DH! It'll amuse me no end though! I love attempting to order something in another language I've not mastered! I'm a sucker for accents, bet I can get us a free drink at least by making the effort with a waiter who appreciates it! Right, I'm back to feeling positive. A BFN is nothing more than a minor blip and I'm not beat yet!
Love to you all! You're all fantastic! xxxx

Hi JFC
I am so sorry hun I was secretly hoping for you too (or maybe not so secretly) {{{{{hugs}}}}}. You always amaze me with your positivity and will to look to the future and make the most of what you do have in your life.
Your clinic sound as though they are really good and want to do what is best for you. It is so important to have faith in your clinic as it will give you such confidence. Hopefully you will have a plan of action soon and you can have some months off the treatment rollercoaster and enjoy yourself.
I think a cuddle with that little pug will help no end and then a huumungous glass of wine and a big cuddle from DH.
You have had a lot of knocks the last few months with ongoing treatment and I think you deserve to let your hair down on holiday and enjoy every second of it. I do wonder if the people of Crete are ready for you and your DH though. Maybe we should send a warning in advance!
Take care hun and I am thinking of you. Roll on the weekend so you can have some you time with DH. Big {{{{hugs}}}}}
Jo x
