i'm over this week already - and it's only monday!!!
i am in one of those jobs that gets progressively busier as it comes closer to july one - and today was mad!! i worked a 7 hour shift, took about 60 calls, got abused a couple of times, and spent my whole day saying to myself "you don't need to go to the toilet yet, you went 5 minutes ago!!!" - seven trips to the loo in 7 hours - that's ridicluous!! stopped in at my mum's on the way home (i live 40k's from work, and needed a pit stop on the way - how sad!) - she laughed, told me it would get worse when i get my BFP - then laughed some more! first thing i did when i got home was go to the loo (again!)
have noticed my taste has changed a bit the last few days - something that a week ago would have been mild tasting (chilli stuff) felt like it was burning today, i turfed my mandarin cos it tasted funny (and i have a mandarin for brekkie most mornings) - i'm totally OFF chocolate (nooooooooooooooooo!) - lots of little things! have been feeling a bit queasy off and on, but i really don't want to get my hopes up...
oh yeah - i'm in there with the cold brigade too - sneezing like a mad woman lately, snuffles off and on, and today i had a sore-ish throat - but only a couple of times for a minute or three.
biggest change i've noticed is my bb's - they're definitely bigger (been wearing the same type of bra for almost 2.5 years cos they're so comfy - and the last week or so i've started to "overflow" just a bit out the top - thought it might be that i've put on some weight with the stim drugs - but weighed myself today and no change - yesterday they started to hurt, but only if they're touched/rubbed - not all the time (and much to DH's delight, they're still behaving like they're on viagara!)
oops, a bit of a self involved post there... guess i'm noticing lots of things - and each time something happens i think "ooh, is that a good sign or a bad one?" - i so wish i'd had AF even semi-regularly before this - might have made it easier for me to tell the difference!!
CAH - can't help you there hun - have never had post O monitoring of hormones - hppe you get some answers soon!
Good luck Missy! Fingers crossed for you tomorrow morning. I really hope this is it for you!
BG - thanks for backing up the cold theory. Hopefully this is exactly what is going on - I haven't had a flu for years. Strange that it hits me right in the middle of my TWW!
wow, I havent checked in for a few days and so much has happened!
Just popping in for a quick update on my TWW.
First though, Kimberley....did you ask about prog pessaries? I too am on 200mg three times daily. What a hassle hey! trying to find somewhere to lie down int he middle of the day is a challenge!
Today was my day 14BT. I dont know anything except I seem to have a BFM (Big Fat MAYBE). Apparently my hcg shoukd be 30 to be a BFP, but is 16 which is too high for a BFN. Go figure. So it seems that either a) I was pg but am in the process of not being anymore or b) had a delayed implantation and the values are rising.
Unfortunately for the last 2 days I have been 100% sure that I am NOT pg (REALLy want coffee and wine) wherease b4 that was feeling a bit off colour etc.
I too went through the dreaded cold post transfer.... In addition I keep getting those weird pains pre-af where you feel like your bits are going to fall out (TMI I guess!).
Anyway I have to have another BT on thursday even if af comes in the meantime.
I had really psyched myself up for a BFN, so it feels weird to be back in limbo, and I dont feel I can get excited at the 'maybe' in case it is option A that I am experiencing.
Thanks for listening to me dribble....am thinking of you all (so weird to think about people during the day who you have never met, and whose real names are unknown!
drbeeee - i really hope it's option B! there's been a couple of ladies recently on BB going through the same "not knowing" hell - and it's just not fair!!! i hope the next few days go quicly for you (and for the rest of us LOL!) and you can get some good news before the end of the week
Missy, sorry I got your BT date so wrong - now that you mention it I remember it was days after my BT even tho our ET was same date. Fingers crossed for the morning.
DrB, must be so frustrating to wait so long and now have to wait some more but it sounds like things are heading in the right direction...
Well ladies I did my HPT and only got the one line. I guess im out of the TWW. I really thought I was going to be pg. Im sad but I still have 2 embies left so will talk to DH and see if he wants to use them straight away being after this AF.
I wish you all good luck and hope you have better news then me. Ill be watching for you all waiting for BFP to come.
Oh Gosh bg I hope your so right. Im now feeling like AF is coming. Keep going to the toilet as im feeling mucus all the time but still clear. DH is saying the same thing. He is so + that all will be fine. I just know with DS 2 lines came up straight away. Although it is a different HPT but still thought would have got a little +
Oh Missy - I am sorry you didn't see what you wanted, but I agree - it still isn't over yet. They must have picked your BT date for a reason... (you are next Mon right - same as me?)
DrBee - yes, I did ask about the pessaries. It is definitely hard work - I am having lunch at my desk then saying I have to go out for 30mins while I duck out to the loo, then lie down in the back seat of my car for a while. Not sure how much longer I have to do this for! What a pain! Glad someone else is on the same dose though - I was worried that mine seemed really high! Hope everything comes up positive for you soon!!
bettyboop - hope this dip is a very positive sign for you.
Yes Monday is my date. Why would we be different. Hmmmm. Did you have FET, ET or blastie. Maybe that has some thing to do with it. But Didnt you already get BFP HPT. Cant rememeber
Morning girls...
Sorry about the HPT being negative Missy - I hope that it is a false negative and you get a nice surprise with the BT! Its way too early for me to do a HPT, and like I said before - Im not even sure that I could handle it!!
I just have a question... since having all of the hormone injections / booster / luteal - my skin has BROKEN out. Its horrible!! I havent had pimples like this since I was a teenager and its quite embarressing!! Have any of you expierienced this?
A bit of a self involved rant today aswell -
Work is really messing with me atm. I really want to quit and walk out... or be a little more mature and just look for another job! I just feel like I am in limbo though because if I do get a BFP then I dont really want to be in a new job and have the possibility of suffering from MS.
I suppose I just have to wait and see - but I feel like I have been doing that for 13 months now. Yesterday really drove me mad and I am worried that the stress I am experiencing at work is going to ruin my chances at a BFP.
Well, I guess there is no harm in applying now... then, if I get a BFN and a new job - not all will be lost... but if I get a BFP and a job offer - then I can decide if I want to take it or not???
Rant over - sorry ladies! Its probably way too early for you to listen to me whinging and whining!!
I hope you all have a fabulous day - good luck for the BT tomorrow Nat!!
Hi to all of you!! xx
