Hi Girls,
Just a quick update - my cycle was cancelled and I am now back to looking for an egg donor - I am pretty okay about it, feeling very calm as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders.
Babytruij - wishing you good luck for tomorrow and lots of sticky vibes.
Thanking you all for your support and for sharing my journey for this past year. Wishing you a 2010 which makes your wishes come true.
Take care,
Sara

Hi Sara - I am so sorry it was cancelled. Believe me...I know, even though you may have been expecting it - I know how disappointing and sad it feels. I'm glad you are feeling ok..but remember that it's ok to have bad days as well.. Take care of yourself..
Lou - luv... how u doing??

Im so scared to post TBH.
Due to my bleeding my GP sent me for a scan today, we have a heartbeat at this time, 119. This is the furest we have ever been and measuring a day ahead at 6 wks 5 days. After 15 IVF cycles and over 25 embies TFed in 7 years i cant even begin to think that my luck has changed. we have a long road a head of us and good news is usually followed very soon by bad. Like my rising HCG turned to a bloody show. I still have no pg symptoms at all.
We are having the IVF clinic scan on the 4th and pray that the heartbeat will still be there.
I guess the best news for me today was that our embies can develop. i was convinced that every one would be a BO, esp after 5 mc and the bleeding this time also had me convinced. so i know that if this one is not ment to be we still have some hope with a surrogate

Loula,
that is amazing wonderful news, so happy for you.
Can understand that you are a bit scared posting it as for many of us when it takes so long it is hard to believe but try to enjoy being pregnant.
Keeping fingers crossed for the 4th.
Sara

Hey guys
Loula, sounds like good news so far. Will be praying that it stays good news!
Went for EPU today. 38 eggs!! That is a lot! Feeling a bit sore and swollen still. There is a big chace that we can't transfer due to OHS!! But we'll wait for blood tests to come back tomorrow, and see what the FS says. Will also hear from embryologist tomorrow to see how the embryo's are doing and how the fertilisation is going. They are doing ICSI, which is standard here in Singapore. So we just need to see how they are all doing tomorrow. Can't wait!
I'm not too upset if I can't do transfer, as it mean's I'll probably be able to make my sister in laws wedding in September in South Africa. If I can't transfer I have to wait 3 months till ovaries settle. If we transfer now, I probably won't be able to travel in September, so all grey clouds have a silver lining.
Anyone else had OHS?? Any tips/advise?? I have been told to eat 8 egg whites a day!! Shew!!
Dinner is ready, so better go eat!
-
Loula- hoping all goes well for you! hang in there
Sara- I am sorry to hear that and hope you are ok
babytruj- wow...lots of eggs! drink lots of water...hope you dont over-stimulate and things go well....! good luck
-
Heard from the Embryologist. 15 good embryo's on Day 2. The rest are too immature and not dividing well.
Now we have to wait for the blood test results to see if we can transfer on Sunday. I hope we can, cos I am more scared about the embryo's being frozen and having to survive being thawed:) Poor little things!
Happy new Year everyone. Hope 2010 is a great one for all of us!
-
Babytruj - praying here for yu that everything goes ok, do yu know if you will be ale to get to TF yet or have they already told you that it is off?
sending all much love and best wishes for 2010

Hey there.
No transfer this month. My eatrodial is still too high and fs too worried that a bfp could cause me more problems with ohss.
Froze 10 embies today day 3, and there are still 4 more they are monitoring to dee if they continue to grow. Looks like i'm gonna be waiting for 3 months!
At least i got to have a glass of wine on New Years Eve:)
I feel better, still bloated and get full quickly., but a lot better than after epu.

Happy New Year to everyone!!!!
It as been a very long time since i logged on here and I am sad that there are so many names that i did not want to see still waiting for their turn. Lets hope that 2010 brings much happiness and joy to the long timers!!!
AFM - well no happy news here i am afraid. There has been no further IVF cycles for me as unfortunately my husband and I have decided to part ways. It has been an emotional and stressful 6 months and i am still gut wrenchingly upset about everything. Do i blame IVF - YES i do. More power to all you wonderful people who have managed to keep your relationships together through this horendous challenge we have all faced. I guess we just didn't take enough time to look after each other and focussed too much on the baby. Who knows??? So many "what ifs" but at the end of the day there's not much i can do now.
I have recently moved interstate to try to start a fresh but unfortunately that meant moving away from my entire family and all my friends so i am now struggling a lot. Every day is a challenge and there have been oceans of tears. But hopefully i will come out te other end a stronger person eventually.
Here's hoping
-
Molly so good to hear from you but i am sorry for the recent news. you are so brave moving but i understand that that must be what you need to do. i moved OS after a break from a LT relationship and it was the best thing to uhelp my head space. i wish you lots of love take care xx
-
molly i am so sorry to hear your news :( Sending you my love and prayers at this tough time xxx
-
Hi Girls,
Loula - am praying for you, your scan must be today. Praying for everyone else too.
Molly - so sad to hear, you poor love. I moved away for work, and didn't have support structure. Looking back I can see where I could have set myself up better, but couldn't at the time.
AFM: Long time no type. Last year was a rollercoaster. Did my "Last ever" cycle in Sept which gave no result. then went throught the grief of thats it, no more and started to come to terms with it. Then DH said well why don't we give it another shot and decided to get supportive. didn't listen when I said this is the last time. so the next last time is in mid Jan. Ridiculous really. Have decided not to tell or discuss it with any family or friends, except 2 close girlfriends which is a bit weird for me but self presevation. Am focussing on looking after my self, getting fit and trying to have fun. Went to an intuitive healer, very cool and a bit woo woo, and she said i had a lot of anger (derrrr) so am pracising giving it up and trying to be nice to DH.

Thanks S&P i had my scan yesterday where there was still a heartbeat but have passed a few bright red clots today, still not holding hope, time will tell
-
just wanted to let you know that i have been thinking of you heaps loula, i have been popping in and out of here to see if you have made any updates. i was going to post and ask how you have been going, but i know that you have been scared to talk or post about everything, so i didnt know weather i should say anything or just sit back and wait till you made a post. i am so happy that there was a heartbeat, fingers crossed you might be one of those ladies that bleed throughout your pregnancy. remember tigerlinda, she has alot of bleeding for the first 12/13 weeks of her pregnancy. i am still sitting here hoping and praying that everything goes perfectly for you hun xxxx
-
i thought i'd stick my head back in here, i have been incredibly slack with getting onto BB. i used to be on here all the time but now i just seem to always be doing something else. sorry.
sara69: hope you get that egg donor, fingers crossed for you.
loula: :pregnant: hope this is you. good luck to you and got all fingers and toes crossed.
Mspink: hi to you and hope all is ok
babytruj: wow 38 eggs. thats a lot!!!!!
we have to do ICSI too. won't be long til the FET and i am sure you need a break after that effort with your eggs. have fun at the wedding too. :dance:
possums: hi hope you are ok. when are you going again, was early this year wasn't it . who knows i am seriously so slack.
i hope you are o.k and this is the year for you 2010 here i come. :pray:
mollygirl: hug 4 you. so sorry to hear the bad news. things can only get better. x o
sam and poppy: glad dh changed his mind. men ! they can be so annoying at times,o.k o.k all the time they are annoying but sometimes we do love them.
mummy2chloe: count down to the wedding. hope it is a perfect day for you.
:bluecheer:
AFM: nothing happening atm. as soon as we get organised with our new home loan then we will be looking at doing the whole IVF/ ICSI thing again. prob late feb early march.
it will have been 12 months since last FET. so i have had a big big break. thats what DH wanted so now he has to say yes to this last cycle.
:pray:
a part of me is scared to do it all again as it was so taxing on my body and mostly my emotions.
but i just know if i do not try this again i will always regret it and dh knows that too and he doesn't want me to blame him.
i am only working casual ATM and no school this year. so nice and relaxed.
chat soon:bfp: hope this is me soon. got fingers crossed.
actually hope it is all of us 2010 is our year for all our BFP
