Thanks ladies for your kind words. I know you all understand the heartbreak of your body failing to do what its meant to.
Sadly, my lining has never been the best so am on EVERYTHING known to help. And yes Loula, that includes viagra. Does not work orally so at great cost have to have it compounded into pessaries.
Strange thing is that last cycle, which was the first time i tried it, my lining was the best ever. Doing same thing this time and no luck. Wondering if last cycle would have been that way regardless and my body just does whatever it likes no matter what drugs, E2 levels etc.
I also can't really grasp to hard at the frostie aspect. from 14 embies last cycle, I had none to freeze so certainly not very hopeful about that option. At this point, I would probably prefer to just go with ET and pray for a miracle.
Stupid darn body!!!
MsPink - I'll trade you some of my embies for a bit of your lining....put us together and we might make a perfectly fertile woman! Do you know when EPU will be yet?
-
Hey lovely Meredith..
Ahhh - if only we could mesh the good stuff and each of us come out perfect!!
I have another BT and scan tomorrow morning but am pretty sure they will go fishing Wednesday..but will know for sure tomorrow. What about you Ms M??
So tell me..is it true what they say about women and Viagra??
Hi everyone..Happy Australia Day for tomorrow..
-
MsPink - EPU tomorrow at 11.30am for me. Hope your scan today showed some better growth in there.
Don't know what the viagra was meant to do for me but can't say it did anything...not even what it was supossed to do!! Oh, just a big mess with the pessaries...... far worse than even progesterone ones.
-
Meredith all the best for EPU tomorrow. xx
-
Oh Meredith I am sorry to read about your lining not doing her thing.
How did you go with your EPU ? fingers x?ed for some lovely healthy eggies.
MsPink how did your scan go. Are they going fishing (as you put it LOL)?
AFM ? has a great long weekend away down at Blairgowrie, it was just fab.
Hi to everyone else :)
Cheers
Hope

Ms Meredith - hope all went well today and you are feeling ok.. ewww and talking about pessaries..FS is getting me to do these again (I hate them!!!) after several cycles of Pregnyl. Yuk!! Also means I cant get up early and go for a walk.. as no time to do everything.
Hope - glad you enjoyed your time away.. Unfortunately it looks like I have only good 4 good follies so we shall see. yes - egg fishing is tomorrow morning at 7.30am... ahhh have to get up so early..Will let you know how I go..
-
Lulu: just dropping in to send you :goodluck: for tomorrow.

Sorry but will have to keep this brief as feeling pretty low and awful at the end of this very looooong day.
Got 23 eggs!!!! Don't know where some of those came from since my last scan. I know most of you would think this is fabulous but we almost halved my FSH dose this time to AVOID this many eggs as my FS thought that may have affected quality. And I end up with MORE than last time ( 21 last cycle)
Feeling MUCH worse physically - was at the hosp all day to try and control pain. Now feeling faint and ill from the pain relief. To add to that, my lining is defnitely no better, perhaps even worse ( don't know how that happens?). So more progynova although I really don't see the point as my E2 levels must be through the roof already. Another scan friday. Will likely still do ET given poor success with freezing but i don't hold out much, if any hope
This journey is just getting harder and harder and I just don't know what to do next. I am no where near ready to give up but don't know how much more I can put myself through if there is always such bad results. I just need some hope back but struggling to find any.
MsPink - sorry about low follie numbers ( you are welcome to some of my eggies!). Hope they are at least all good ones for you tomorrow

Hi Guys,
Back after long weekend and bit of migraine yesterday.
Meredith - you poor love. really not fair. Know the feeling of not being ready to give up.
Had marathon "IVF uni" session last mon with appts with 2 FS and Np.
Most useful thing came out with was that in colarado, it is recommended that you have sex night before ET. I decided to try it every time, even with this one little FET. DH was happy to oblige.
Got a photo of embie, and the printer was playing up so it was blue background instead of the usual yellow, and or course think that may be a good sign. Now in TWW.
Not that hopeful as am just doing this FET with asprin, to be able to say to FS OK that didn't make any difference, what do we do next to imporve embryo quality, etc
Hope you all have great rest of week
PS my quote problem is now solved
-
Meredith - so sorry you're feeling so bad. Am very much hoping all these little eggies do well and surprise you. Let me know how they are doing..
SnP - all the best with the TWW...very much hoping Ms M and I join you in about 5 days.
AFM - only got 4 eggies and am hoping they are outstanding...
-
:hello:hi girls just wanted to say hi and let you all know im lurking on you all and ill be back soon to join you all with my fet :dance:
good luk to you all i hope next time i come in there has been heaps of BFPs:crossfingers:
-
S&P - yay at having embie on board. Praying the DTD trick does the trick, so to speak. When is your BT?
Lulu - praying for those 4 little eggies to be doing there thing tonight and producing wonderful embies. What day will you be doing ET?
AFM - of the 23 eggies, 13 have fertilised so far. Apparently they are still watching 7. Is prob about the result I expected given at last scan i should have only had about 15-16 mature eggies. So presuming those fertilised came from them and the remainder likely just immature eggies that popped up at last minute. Much on a par with last cycle so far ( 14 embies from 21 eggs).Still feleing physically and emotionally far less than ordinary but have become resigned today. Not much more I can do to change anything. We will almost certainly still proceed to ET on Sun as I just can't not at least try but will be defnitely very practical and try and plan for the next step. Thanks for those trying to be positive about my lining but I do not like to live with false hope and there is very little chance it will change in the next few days

Hi Loula,
Which farmers market did you go to, I love those.
-
Also - I found the solution to my quote problem, I didn't realise i had to log in.........derrrrr.....felt really blonde then (not just pretend)...
Also I worked out how to start a new thread and so have started one for Thryoid issues. So proud!!!

I am still a mental basket case and I am sure the heat isn't helping!
Scan today as expected. No change in lining which is what i anticipated but still guts me. Nothing more they can do and have left me to decide on ET or not. Will defnitely be proceeding ( as long as we have something) as I can't face not at least giving it a go. Plus they can't ever say I wouldn't get pg with thin lining but defnitely can't if i don't transfer.
My dilema right now is...... if we have more than one blast on Sun and they say one ( or more) is suitable for freezing then do i freeze the best, guaranteed frostie, knowing it might give me another chance on a (hopefully) better cycle, and put back anything else that may not make freeze or do i pick the strongest that might stick it out despite thin lining.
At this stage I am inclined to think i would request freezing any definite potential frostie so its perhaps not wasted on what seems to be a dud cycle but still give anything else the chance of a fresh transfer. What do you girls think?
Oh and so far at day 3 we still have 13embies. One already compacting. The others b/n 7-10 cells. Sounds great but this is much the same as last cycle and things began to really fizzle in th last 2 days
-
Gosh Meredith,
Yes the heat isn't helping. you poor darlin'. not good for sleep either.
How about not making the decision until you know what you have got to work with. ie at 11am on Sunday, or when ever they call you. some space/ time and actively not decide yet helps. you will know what to do then.
I've never gone to 5 days, so don't know about that particular form of mental torture. My friend always did that and she insisted on having 2 blasts put back, and got preg with 1. She never got any to freeze. I never had any luck with Fresh ETs, only with frozen. Lot of luck with first one, not so much recently!
AFM - in TTW, not hopeful, but not unhopeful either. 1 week down, 1 to go.
Have been reading up in what to do next, ie if preg, what drugs can support it, eg progesterone, HCG, on asprin already, if not what to take next to improve egg quality, not sure is Luveris would be helpful for me, but will ask FS when see him on Wed. Am going to make plan for either way. I'm good with a plan, even if the plan is "make a plan next wednesday"
-
Meredith - a hard decision. I can only give you my opinion and here it is.. If your embies are good and freezable and you know the endo is bad, I would freeze. I don't think I could put in a good embie if I knew it had little hope..again my opinion because I don't have much luck with getting anything to freeze these days. I know some people say that you have more chance from a fresh then a frozen but I (and I think my FS) think its balony. I got PG on a frozen and never on a fresh like SamnPoppy..
If they don't think the embies are good enough for freezing - then go for it as you have nothing to lose.
I am sure it is a very tough decision for you but I am sure you will make the right one for you.
SamandPoppy - all the best with the TWW. Did you do a FET? Very much hoping I join u Monday.
AFM - day 3 today and I have 2x8 and 2x6 cells. I am living in hope they will do what they are supposed to do so I can have ET Monday. Day 4 usually gets a little scary with the embies.
hope the rest of you wonderful ladies are well and enjoying the weekend.

Hi guys - feeling a bit sick today, had Pregnyl inject last night and wonder if that. May just be Tacos though!
