Toby - CONGRATULATONS!! Wishing you a happpy pregnancy with a beautiful healthy baby at the end! If you have an anxiety disorder can you talk to you doc and see if there is anything you can do to lesson the symptoms? While the first few months of pregnancy are scary for anyone you've waited for this for so long and deserve to enjoy it. Hoping you can find a way to be less anxious. I'm sure everything is going to be wonderful for you.
Paula - You're PUPO!! Congrats for two on board! Good luck with trying to stay sane and not think about it too much. thinking of you, sticky vibes galore and can't wait to hear your great news on Friday.
WLB - where are you at in your natural cycle? Hoping you get you miracle x
BecD - Crossing everything for your BT tomorrow. How are you feeling? Have you POAS?
Loula - BOL with your FS appointment. My heart broke when you wrote you'd transferred 23 embies in 14 cycles. It's you I find inspirational. Sending you strength and clarity for 'getting your head space right' xx
Dutchie - how are you doing? Gearing up for another round?
Hello to everyone else. Hope you are all doing well.
just wanted to pop in to let you all know that i am still here following you all, i am always thinking of you and hope and pray that we can get some more BFP in here very soon
Toby congratulations!!! That's fantastic news, I'm so happy for you and wish you a easy, healthy pregnancy. I totally understand how you feel, I had a lot of mixed emotions/anxiety when I was pregnant with my son and am here if you need anyone to talk to. xxxx
Paula thank you for thinking of me. Hoping all is well with you and there's fabulous news just around the corner!
WLAB, Loula, Infinity, M2C and anyone else I've missed
AFM not much news, AF arrived and we're still on a break. Am enjoying the break from (almost) everything fertility related but have still managed to be invited to 3 babyshowers over the next 2 weeks... go figure! xx
Sorry I havent been in for a while guys. BFN for us on Monday which was pretty devastating. We have resigned ourselves to the fact that Murray will never have biological children which is a huge blow. Will investigate DIUI and DIVF next year, but have also submitted our application for adoption, so just seeing what happens now.
I can't keep going the way I have been for the last four years - infertility has taken me to the lowest of places, and Im not willing to go to those depths anymore. So time to protect myself for a bit and not think about it.
May come back and visit, but need a break for a while.
Sending you all my love and prayers, I think of you often xxx
It sounds like there is lots of happy and sad news in here, and I think that is why I stopped visiting this site for a while... Sometimes you just need to get away from it all.
I am back, and hoping for some advice and encouragement as I embark on my first round of IVF. I think I have seen some of you before, maybe on another thread...
AF just arrived today, and doctor putting me on some meds tomorrow for this cycle, then hopefully next cycle the IVF process starts. Very exciting and nerve racking too... Just don't want to get my hopes up that this could work!! But also want it so so badly it hurts. And I know you all know how I feel, so thank you for just listening....
I'm still trying to work out what is actually involved in the IVF procedure... my doctor has told me, but you know when you are in there, you just can;t get your head around it all. Any sites you guys know of that give detailed descriptions of what happens and when, and what all the drugs are and what they do etc?
Hi Babytruj, welcome to the thread, will encourage and support you all the way. what IVF protocol are you doing? Let us know specifics and one of us will be able to answer your questions. If you like private message me your postal address and I can send you a huge booklet my FS gave me that goes through most of the different protocols step by step. Best of luck for your first IVF cycle, hoping you get your BFP at the end of it. You can do this.
Hello to everyone else, it's so quiet in here at the moment. Not much going on from me. No AF (and it's late now) - just weird sbrown spotting for a week and a half, anyone know if this is normal for after a chemical pregnancy? Not sure if we will do a FET before the end of the year yet.
We really need some more good news in here. Thinking of you all always.
I havent posted for ages and I hope everyone is well
babytruj - I remember you "hi" - best of luck with your first IVF cycle
AFM: Just waiting for a surge on lh/ovulation testing, so we can do a FET, not a sign of a line on the urine tests, so I have no idea what my cycle is doing.
paula : good luck in the TWW. hope it goes fast.
toby: WOW a BIG congrats to you, woohoo.
infinity: hi , hope all is well.
possums: hi. it'll prob be early 2010 for us too. having a nice break. x
anyos: have a good break, sometimes we need it.
becd: so sorry, big hugs for you. xo
babytruj: good luck
wlb: not long to go for FET. got fingers crossed.
AFM: well i am still alive and kicking, i am just slack when it comes to getting on BB. have been busy .
i had acupuncture the other day and she said prob a little longer break for me would be good. looking at early 2010. jan or feb now for next cycle.
she said summer good time to do it.
so looks like i have a bit longer break now and i'll be feeling fantastic just so i can do another full IVF/ ICSI cycle and then gain 5 kg again. woo hooo.
lol.
good luck to everyone, wherever you are in a cycle or taking a break like me.
hi ladies...best of luck to those in cycles now, or waiting....
bec- big hugs, take care of yourself x
babytruj- good luck
afm- we just had a nice week away up the coast together....being in limbo and waiting is sorta getting to us, but we are doing ok
A friend just had a baby- went to the hospital yesterday to meet her little boy- was very hard to be there. I guess to be expected. The last time I was in the maternity ward was when I had the ectopic...not a happy memory, and to be there yesterday with all those babies around, and look at her perfect little son was tough, much as I am pleased for her
I hope everyone is doing ok. It's coming up to Christmas already which is such a hard time when you're LTTTC.
WLB - all the best for your FET today! for you and I truly hope it's your turn this time. Will be thinking of you.
JBM - great to see you doing much better. Hoping you'll be putting on heaps more than 5kg in the new year - and most of it baby!
Possums - huge understatment but it is so hard isn't it? You were very brave to go and see the new baby. My sister was due to have her baby last week, not here yet but any day now, she's delivering in the hospital I had my D&C for our miscarriage, will be a very difficult day for us but will suck it up and go anyway. Sometimes I surprise myself and make it through. We are super tough us LTTTCers. Hoping you hear some good news soon about TTC in 2010. x
Dutchie - i know you're keeping a low profile but just wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you and hoping your current cycle is going well. xx
AFM - will be doing a FET this month, first scan is Friday, if all goes well FET will be toward the end of next week. Honestly not expecting much, trying to muster up some positivity and hoping to get my Christmas wish.
Infinity- fingers crossed you do get that Christmas wish with your FET
and yes, we are a tough lot, and the hospital visits are hard!
I think i would have found it easier if my friend, who knows my situation (and we've talked about it a fair bit before) had said something like "thanks for coming, I know it can't be easy for you"...maybe I am expecting too much there though, I dont know. I seem to have lost perspective on what is reasonable to expect of people.
JBM- glad you are doing well, and hoping 2010 brings us both what we wish for
WLAB- hope you have some progress soon, good luck for the FET
Possums - It's always hard when there is a new pregnancy or birth amongst people you know - You want to be happy for them, but you just can't help feeling a little resentful and sad too... I know that feeling - It just seems to be babies everywhere. And maybe she is just overwhelmed still being in hospital - and is in her own little world at the moment. I am sure she knows how hard it was for you, and maybe didn't want to bring it up... Our time will come....
Take care all. chat soon
