Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception 2012 July

[Jane :)]

Vic - I am SO SO SO very sorry for you hun! Can't imagine your pain right now.

[Miss.B]

Vic, I don't know what to say hun, I'm just so heart broken for you . I wish this didn't happen to you guys, you don't deserve this, I guess none of us do. Holding your hand as you navigate through this very difficult time. Many, many hugs sweetie and please reach out whenever you need to talk hun, it's such a sucky place to be xoxoxo

Vic, I'm so sorry to hear that. We went through it in January and it's such a shock. Are you getting any testing done? I found it helped to know there was a chromosomal problem, but I know others prefer not to know.

Krikkit, in my experience the oracle HPTs are NOT sensitive. Last year I didn't get a BFP until 13dpo and the FRER the same day was clear as a bell, so I'm sure I'd have gotten a line much earlier if I'd been using the FRER instead of the oracle ones. I've just switched to inpregnancy on the recommendation of a friend but haven't had a chance to test the sensitivity since I've only gotten BFNs...

Krikkit, I'm sorry to say I've evolved to be a serial POASer, lol.

Juniper, I'm so sorry to have missed your earlier post hun! Thanks so much for your kind and wise words, I am slowly getting myself out of that deep, black hole . I will ring my FS next week to set up an appointment, it gives me somethig to look forward to even though I am a wee bit scared of what he'll say

[me4ever]

Oh no VIC! I can't believe it... I'm so sorry. You poor thing. Big hugs for you and your husband. I'm feeling your pain, sitting here with tears in my eyes. I was so happy for you when you finally got your BFP...

Hi Larry

Vic- I am so sorry hun, what a shock for you guys

Blood test today inconclusive... Have to get another one tomorrow, which means dragging a 2yo down to a regular pathology cause there is no way I can get into the city and my suburban clinic is closed on Saturdays
BTW this is all on public transport as DH is working and I don't drive = YAY!

Where so you buy lullaby tests from? I can only find a US supplier, is that right?

[nothing2lose]

Emma, there is an Australian site. It is Lullaby Conceptions. They are in Burwood, Vic.

Miss B, I've been too scared to phone my FS too (for my AMH results).

Larry, congrats on the great EPU result! FX for a fabulous fertilisation report tomorrow!

Afm, I finally got around to putting today's temp on my chart and FF gave me crosshairs, putting O at CD13. I've never O'd that early (without meds) and I've had fertile CM since then (normally dries up straight after O), so I'm hoping FF is wrong. The temps aren't high enough to be conclusively considered post-O. Today's was the first that went above my normal pre-O range, but was still below my normal post-O range. Gah! If FF is right, then my lap will be next cycle (about CD3) instead of this one! Haven't had a +opk, but only started CD13 because (did I mention) I haven't O'd before CD15 in the past. Tomorrow's temp should be the decider - if it goes up to normal post-O then I probably did O early; if it goes back down (please, please, please) then I should be in the clear (and O'ing late instead, because I would have expected my +opk today but it was very negative).

Larry - What day of your cycle are you up to???

Juniper - its annoying when your body is not doing what you want isn't it?

[Larry]

Hi everyone,
I haven't posted in this thread before but I got good news today and I need to share it somewhere.
My partner and I have been trying to conceive since May 2009. After 2 years of no results we decided that it was time to visit the specialist. Clomid didn't work for us and I have had the egg pick up today for my second IVF cycle (no eggs retrieved from the first cycle). I am so happy that we got 22 eggs and I am due to get a phone call from the lab tomorrow I say how they are going - fingers crossed!!
I have been taking DHEA so I'm hoping that the egg quality is there and I have also been doing acupuncture which I now fully believe in (I used to be a bit of a sceptic).
My first IVF cycle I took 75iu & 100iu puregon but this was upped to 250 & 350iu the second time.
I am so tired from today but quite excited so finding it difficult to sleep
Best of luck to everyone out there!
Larry xx
