Oh my goodness, Sunbeam!! I can imagine your anxiety - I have everything crossed for you, babe! Best, best, best of the best of luck for Saturday (and between now and then, too!)... xx
Great news, minniemouse! I'm hoping this is your cycle!
Sorry I haven't popped in for a little while - I feel like I've been messed around a bit and trying to deal with other life things going on. As it stands now, I am waiting for BT results this afternoon to see if I am baseline and for the green light to start injections tomorrow. If I don't get the news I am hoping for, it seems I'll be looking at another month...
Thinking of you all and hoping everyone is doing well!
I just found out we've got just 1 little chicken who is unaffected (chromosomally or with our gene). I have dubbed him nemo (the sole survivor in our little petri dish of caviar) Please please stick little fella AF is due tomorrow so will start a cryo cycle then...
Good luck for tomorrow Elle, and Sunbeam, I am praying you end up with a few to spare
Hi Babymama, how special, 1 little one survived, that's the one, it's gotta be! How many did you start out with I forget? Good luck and sending lots of sticky sticky's your way. xx
sunbeam - 6 to biopsy, good result! i know we always hope for 1 or two more... but thats a great little stash you have. i am crossing everything for you & will be thinking of you tomorrow. xx
elle - good news you are back on the jabs! goodluck.
babymama - congratulations on your precious nemo, not long until you get to pop him/her in.
alison - i think it was you that asked about side effects of drugs? i didnt find i had that much actually, just a few days of mild headaches with syranel. i found the gonal f/puregon jabs didnt hurt, although the orgalutran was a bit ouchy due to the blunt needle. you get used to it though and its over pretty quickly. i am also on clexane (get to go off it soon, thankgoodness...) & those ones are the worst. i think you said you had been on herapin before, im assuming its similar to clexane (blunt needle, feels like salt water going in to a cut when you inject?!). anyway, if you have had those - you will be fine with the needles i reckon.
minnie - sounds like your cycle is tracking along nicely. my next scan is monday too, meet here monday & swap details?!
Sunbeam can't get on today (internet problems) but she wanted me to let you know that unfortunately none of the 6 embryos were genetically normal so no transfer for her :-( she said to tell you she is ok & is off getting drunk. Her DD has said he will consider using donor eggs so that's where they are at.
Thank you all so much for all your wishes and support. It was good to be distracted yesterday being with my friend but then on the drive home the tears started and I sobbed all the way. I got home and took a Valium and had a good sleep. I feel okay today, just clinging to the hope that Donor Daddy will agree to one last try using donor eggs. We are having dinner together in the week so we can discuss it. Please please say yes
Babymama - I'm so glad you got little Nemo I hope beyond hope that he's your little sticky one
Elle - So glad to hear your are back on track and the cycle is underway
Minnie - Good luck for your scan tomorrow. Thanks for posting for me yesterday.
Just wanted to pop in and say I am thinking of you all. Hope you are keeping you spirits high, eating well and doing acupuncture.
Things going okay for me. 32 weeks along. Bad heart burn and back pain makes getting any sleep difficult but I figure it just prepares me for what is to come with a baby.
BF - we are having a boy but only by a stroke of luck. Our genetic condition affects boys and we were told we may have to consider just looking at female embryos, so I really think it depends on the illness.
BF and JBear hope you are travelling well and surviving the heat.
