WLAB, I truely hope that the ones on board are the golden eggs you are waiting for hun...its a bit disappointing you don't have anything to freeze this time to add to your frosties but hey let's hope you don't need them anymore. I heard about lying in bed for certain hours after transfer, so I think you did the right thing. I am hoping my TF will be falling on Saturday so I can have the luxury too...
Now we wait patiently...
Hey girls
just popping in to let you all know that i am thinking of you all xxx
just a quick shout out to WLB- sending you lots of sticky vibes hun, fingers crossed you wont need any frosties cos this is the one :)

i may not be posting much lately but i am always reading and following you all
lots of love. fingers crossed we start getting some BFP in here. there are a few of you in here cycling so i think we will get lots and lots of BFP :)
Thank you so much for your support girls, it means a lot to me :grouphug:
Hi girls,
WLAB- Wishing you the stickiest sticky vibes, hope it's your turn.
Well I'm ready to start again, AF arrived today bang on again which is reassuring. Nurses tell me tomorrow will be CD1 as she arrived after lunch and will call me tomorrow with my schedule. I guess dreaded FSH tests on Tues and start stims and clomid shortly after. I might lay low for this one and just stick to posting in my blog.
Thank you to everyone for your support and encouraging words it means a great deal to me.
Morning!
Loula, I've only had the one D&C and it was so traumatic. I was as uncomfortable as you described, even a week after I had recurring pain, bleeding and it hurt to walk. I got checked out and all was fine, just a bit of a difficult recovery. We all recover differently. Are you having a check up? I'd arrange a check up just to ease your mind. Hoping things ease up for you soon. xx
Dutchie - Woohoo for AF arriving! Will stalk your blog for all the news. AF hasn't arrived for me yet, I am NEVER late but it figures being that I'm keen to get started that the biatch doesn't show on time! Best of luck for this cycle......love your friendly stalker hehe
WLB- Congratulations for two on board!!!!! Your two little bubba's sound wonderful! All the luck in the world this cycle, your turn is waaaaay overdue. Will be thinking of you and can't wait to hear your BFP news. When is your BT?
anyos - you said you POAS but didn't tell us the outcome! Am assuming BFN? Are you cycling when AF arrives?
Cuddlepie, M2C, toby, possums and everyone else, hope all is great.
infinity- Damn AF, shows up when you don't want and is late when you really want her to show...so frustrating, I know you just want to get started. Sending you many AF vibes...c'mon AF. Hopefully shes not too far away.
Quick question- for those that have or are taking royal jelly, is it ok to take during stims or should it be stopped? TIA
Hi lovely ladies, still stalking you daily and wishing all the best for you all. I say each of your names in my prayers every night.
WLAB, I have everything crossed for your two lovely embies on board.
Thinking of you all xx
Dutchie, I have been taking royal jelly and haven't stopped. I think its very mild supplyment and don't think it will have major interruptions on the meds. But its just me...;)
thanks Babydreamtime for popping in....:hug:
Thanks heaps CPie, was hoping I didn't have to stop as I've only been taking it for about 4 weeks.
BDT- You're a darl, thanks for your prayers. Wishing you the very best for your gender scan tomorrow, will be stalking you for updates.
Just had a call from the nurses, FSH test tomorrow, start clomid 100mg on wednesday, gonal f 225iu (eeek hope it's enough) friday and first stim scan on mon 14th. Off to update blog.
sounds good Dutchie, glad you are starting now...best of luck for this cycle...
Ive missed you all, have been taking a break from everything this last week to get my head screwed on right.
dutchie - hoping everything goes well for you this cycle
wlab - yay for two bubbas on board. I am praying so hard for you xx
afm - we have our clinic appointment tomorrow with our specialist and the scientific director. We have decided that we will give it one last attempt and that will be it for the time being. We do definitely need a real break from all of this, our lives have been turned upside down, and i need to get back to being the real me, not just the shadow of the person who is depressed all of the time. So if this cycle (and any frosties) dont work, we will give it a rest for a year or two. At least thats the plan.
But one more ivf, so I need to throw absolutely everything into it - acupuncture, weight loss, i have changed jobs to reduce stress... I so desperately want this to work - at least to get to transfer so I have a shot at it.
good morning ladies,
WLB praying for you honey, hope this is the one! xxxx
Dutchie, hope you're well, good luck with the blood test today :)
Bec how are you travelling? I know what you mean about throwing everything into it, we're in the same boat. Good luck with the specialist.
Infinity, hope all is well. Yep the outcome was negative, we've just started a new cycle!
M2C have been thinking of you, hope all is well.
Lots of love and :bluedust: for everyone else xxx
AFM AF arrived yesterday and I had my Lucerin this morning. Had a meltdown with SIVF last night because they 'forgot' to send me my pack with dosages etc. About to ring them and give them hell :wall: But other than that, on 300 Puregon and I think I continue with the Lucerin as well. Feeling much calmer, lets see how long it lasts ;)
Hi girls,
Bec- Very BOL for your next cycle, hope your appt goes well.
anyos- Give 'em hell, we pay them so much the least they could do is to be on top of things, it's not like we're there to be prescribed antibiotics! My clinic rang today and the nurse I spoke to yesterday gave me the wrong start date for my gonal, starting on Thurs now and not Fri grrrr, tad frustrating but have to remain calm. Very BOL with this cycle cycle bud.
FSH test today revealed fsh is acceptable to start so first dose of clomid tomorrow, gonal f 225iu thurs and first scan on mon 14th with a blood test straight after.
Now really off to update blog, had a few computer dramas yesterday! :wall:
A big :hello: to all you lovely gals, hope things are travelling well.
Hi Ladies :D
I'm so sorry I'm non existent in here... sometimes I just remember to update my journal, & then get so sidetracked I forget other threads :rolleyes:
Just wanted to send mountains of :stickyvibesgirl: :stickyvibesboy: to you WLAB :hug:
Sometimes day 2/3 transfers are best... (we did a day 2 transfer this cycle for the first time)....theres enough ladies on BB to prove the results after not having success with their blasties, so lots of love to you... hoping those little ones are snuggling in tight xxx
Dutchie - Thanks so much for popping in to my journal, hoping everything was great to start yesterday ;)
BTW I took the Royal Jelly for the month leading up to stims starting, and all the way through stims... it didn't effect BT results etc at all - DH took it the whole time as well.
We're still taking it - if this cycle isn't successful its been in our systems for the next one!
Bec - So glad to hear you're doing better & nice to have a plan... Lots of strength & love for this next cycle & take it easy on yourself xxx
For everyone else at different stages - all of my love & best wishes for you all xxx
Maybe if I pop in here more I can keep up to date better with personals :lol:
AFM - We had EPU on Monday - had 9 eggs collected, 8 were viable for ICSI & had 5 fertilise.
We had 2 x A grade cells transferred in on Wednesday - haven't heard from the clinic today yet but yesterday the other 3 were progressing well & fairly evenly all between 6-8cell.
The three still growing are B grade as they had some slight fragmentation.
This is our best cycle by far in regards to egg quality & numbers with all 5 still looking good at day 3 - we have never had A grades either, as they've always had some slight fragmentation.
Seeing as how I only took half the dosages of luveris I was supposed to (that drama is in my journal, its too long to put in here!) - I'm not sure if I can thank the luveris... or if I can thank the royal jelly ;)
Interesting too - we had 9 eggs collected, transfer was on 9/9/09 at approx 9am!!!
Feeling fairly ok about this cycle - I wasn't confident at all the past few weeks but just crossing my fingers & trying not to think about it for the next week & a bit!!!
Lots of love to everyone xxxxxxxxx
Hi loverlies,
Holly- All those 9's wow, hoping it brings you lots of luck. Hopefully you're going to be busy for the next 9 months hehe (& beyond) Sending you some more :stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy: And thanks for the advice re: royal jelly, I intend to take it during stims too and DP is on it too.
anyos- how are you travelling hun? Hope you sorted dramas out with SIVF and told them to lift their game.
A big hello to everyone else, have to run, my laptop is making funny noises.
Well I was about 20 mins late for my second gonal dose. I have my alarm set so I don't forget and DP had the damn thing on silent. Hoping it'll be fine, I was only a lil' bit late afterall whoopsie.
Holly that's fantastic news!!! Fingers, toes and everything else crossed for you xxxxx
Dutchie, how are you going with everything? Have you had gonal before? Got everything sorted out with SIVF, about five people including my FS rang to make sure that everything's ok and I now have the same nurse assigned to do my bloods for the rest of the cycle. Yes, it was a major tantrum!!! Felt a little off with the drugs yesterday but better today. I've been on bee pollen as well, hoping that along with the DHEA, wheatgrass, accupunture, hypnotherapy and 5000 other things gets us across the line :pray:
anyos- glad it's all sorted now. Having the same nurse for bloods etc would be good, saves a lot of confusion and now you can just concentrate on getting preggers! You're certainly going the whole hog with supplements, I must get me some more wheatgrass, I reckon it did help to keep my fsh down and not fluctuate so much.
I've had gonal before, infact I've only ever used gonal in previous cycles but this time I'm on half the dose I normally am at 225iu which is good. I just hope it's enough to do the trick. I guess I'll know Monday if we need to up the dose or not. Anyway so far so good with this cycle I'm chugging along nicely and have so far, been able to remain fairly calm and just go with the flow.
Hello everyone!
Hollybolly - fantastic news and results so far! Congrats for two on board. Fingers crossed this cycle is the one :stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy:
anyos - best of luck for your new cycle. There are a few of us with embies on board or cycling right now so things should get very exciting in here in the coming weeks.
Dutchie - glad everything seems to be going along well. Hoping this is the cycle for you. xx
BecD - hoping your appointment the other day went well. I understand your feelings of needing to be yourself again. Hopefully your upcoming cycle brings you your BFP.
WLAB - hope your TWW is going along quickly - stick little bubba's stick!!!
much love to everyone else!!
AFM - AF finally arrived yesterday - nearly a week late WTF?? anyway, called the clinic, parted with much of our hard-earned cash and ready to get going. As my cycle this time is a new protocol the nurses had nothing to tell me yet - I rang over a week ago to talk to them and make sure they had all the details so there wouldn't be delays, but wouldn't you know it - NOTHING is on my file - no-one can tell me what to do. Nurses were supposed to call back yesterday - BUT DIDN'T!! Am feeling a bit uneasy now...... Don't you love it how someone is always available for you to pay for a cycle - and it's the first thing you have to do before they will even talk to you:wall: Anyways, fingers crossed they can get their act together and get me a BFP in about 4 weeks time!
