Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception April/May 2014

Good luck Emma and Sarah :)

Thanks Worrywart, I still haven't called the FS, I need a kick in the bum I think. Feeling so lost and tired lately, I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm calling this week damn it! lol

Emma, sorry to hear about the OHSS. Hope it doesn't get any worse. FX for great news from the testing!!

Miss.B, I've been putting off going back to my old FS for another lap for my endo (new FS doesn't do them) and had some quite bad pain during AF last week, including some clear endo symptoms. How about we both make those phone calls this week and book some appointments!?!

Good luck today emma! Hoping for some great results! Take care with the OHSS too xx

Sarah, omg, that is potentially v exciting. I really really hope that the line is getting darker. It looked pretty dark to me. But obviously ... yeah, well, you know, tricky situation with the trigger. Have you done any more tests? Wishing you tons and tons of :goodluck:

MissB, don't be hard on yourself. It is only natural that you want to protect yourself against possible distress. These bl**dy appointments are so freaking hard. For us, each one we go to causes a major upset. And it is kind of crazy because maybe you will still have that baby in the end. I read this thing, which is from Buddhist thinking, which is that "anything can happen at anytime". Now this goes for both good and bad things, but it is a reminder to use "don't know mind" to try to stay in the present moment with what is, rather than anxiety-inducing mental excursions into the future, which really is totally unknown. HTH. Now make that phone call!!!

Juniper, you too! I believe so firmly in laps for us endo girls. I have only ever got pregnant right after one.

Emma, my god, I am on tenterhooks for you. Please post ASAP. Also, really crossing fingers OHSS diminishes a bit. I am sure you are drinking loads of water? Sorry that sounds kind of silly, but it might help?

Joe, loads of sticky baby dust to you. Hope this is the one.:goodluck:

AFM, I think I ovulated on Monday and we did try both Sunday (with pos OPK) and Monday, but I don't know. My hormones feel whacky. I don't have any breast tenderness which I usually have right after O. Plus I never really felt a clear increase in desire which I usually get. I always find myself thinking, "gosh that taxi driver was attractive" or staring at magazine pictures of David Beckham and then I'll be like "oh .... right ....I get it". Anyway, I am sure I am looking at it too closely, because of course, there is loads of pressure because it feels like we only have a "window" post-lap. I will stay off the list for now, but I will go on it for my FET cycle if it goes ahead next month.

lots of love and luck girls,
WW

1 normal embryo.
I suppose it's better than none....

Hit me up with your best implantation tips!

Emma that's great like you said one is better than none and it only takes one. I have everything crossed for you. I have heard pineapple with the core is good for implantation
you get the pineapple cut it into 5 pieces and eat one piece a day from ET that's what ive heard anyway oh and something about brazil nuts??

Sarah I have everything crossed for you too I'm praying that line gets darker it looks promising xxxx

Sneaking in to say Emma... I really hope that one embie is IT!!!! It's genetically normal,and that's a great start!! You have a good record for things trying to implant.... So I'm feeling good about this one for you xoxo

Yay at least you got 1 Emma :)! I wish I knew how to help them implant good, if I knew I'd tell you and I'd be pregnant! If this one works the only thing different I did was hcg support at 6dpo.

Thanks for the luck girls :) xoxo

Am I allowed to post today's hpt pics to get opinions?
Lol. Or where can I and u could looksi. Sorry if I wasn't allowed to post them yesterday.

Today my line is still just as dark I think! I've given myself a headache from concentrating so hard trying to see a difference between today's & yesterday :-/. Ha ha. Good job on not obsessing Sarah! It should be simple but I hate this time I just don't want CP # 9 :( !!
But hey it should be fading by 6dp hcg shot for sure! So I think somethings going on on there :).
I can't pray any harder!

Go on juniper and missb we are holding your hands to make those dreaded calls! Xx

Okay, I phoned my GYN an hour and a half ago and surprisingly got an appt for Monday morning (will be late for work, but don't care after all the unpaid overtime I've done already this week) and was also lucky to get an appt with my GP on Friday (to get the new referral). My GP is often booked out a week in advance and it usually takes a few weeks to see the GYN, so must have been my lucky day... I do think he'll recommend another lap, which is why I've been putting it off, but I had some bad pain when going to the toilet during AF and that's a worrisome sign that the endo may be growing on my bowel again - better to treat it ASAP before it does too much damage or I could end up with the GYN recommending a bowel resection in the near future...

Emma, I'm so glad you had at least the one normal embryo! I didn't do anything in particular to help implantation (although I did continue acupuncture through the 2ww), so can't help you with that. I've read some conflicting opinions on the bromelain thing - a lot of people claim it will help implantation but I've also heard some say it can actually do the opposite (maybe just if you have too much or maybe it was just for people with immune issues because I think that's the group who were saying it could be bad?)...
WW, that's interesting about your drive just before O. I find the same thing some cycles, but DH is actually the more reliable indicator for me - sometimes it feels like he's asking for some action every 5 mins just before O - he's better than an OPK...

Sarah, I think you're supposed to share photos by posting a link, as your previous post has been edited to show now. If your photo is uploaded to photobucket, I think you want the "Direct" link to paste into your post. We can think click the link if we want to see the photo.

Emma all the best for your golden egg xx

No advice on implantation sorry but really hoping this is THE ONE for you xx

Sarah, sounding very promising, all the best too xx
