Thanks Lauz
Visit was alot easier than I thought...he is sooooo cute...and of course only stopped crying while I was holding him (Aunty of the year lol!)...my brother and his partner both look like they've been to hell and back poor things....anyway it got all the maternal hormones gushing so I should be in the right place for transfer today...if we transfer...little blasties should be out of the freezer now...thaw little blasties thaw!
best of luck for today Ellie!:stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl:
Thanks Sonya...I'm just sitting here waiting for our embryologist to phone...I was so cool about it all and now I'm suddenly stressed off my head...I'm so scared I'll fall apart if we can't transfer today...and if we do transfer I'm going to be like this for another 2 weeks...then till scan...it never ends does it!@?!
OMG OMG OMG!!!!!
Just got the call...both our little blasties have thawed...AND she said they look better than they did before they were frozen AND she was really surprised as she's never seen blasties look so good!!!!
SO 11.30am we transfer...this is the best chance yet right?! Oh...the relief!!!! Thank you so much everyone for getting me this far xxx
Good luck Ellie, i just looked at the time and how funny its 11:30.
best of luck Ellie - will be thinking of you today hun - all sounding brilliant so far
ok - i think it's time little miss BG fessed up - after my dr's appointment the other day, i came home and did a test - it was negative after 10 mins, so i figured that was it - but when DH got home a few minutes later, i had another look and there was a very faint second line! OMG! it's taken me two days to believe it's there, and i still don't really believe it (although after looking at the test at least a hundred times i KNOW it's really there) - we're cautiously excited and waiting on confirmation BT on Thursday!
sorry - that was very self absorbed, but i needed to let you all know!
YAY BG...it's all good...a line is a line...can't wait for Thursday!
BG - Taht's fantastic about the line, like Ellie asid, a line is a line! Can't wait for Thursday!
Ellie, YAY for your blasties, hope all went well with the transfer :)
Hi to everyone else, sorry for my lack of personals ATM, will tr to catch up later.
Nic
oh wow BG that is fantastic the same thing happened with my last pg i did a test at 3 weeks and 3 days at first there was no line but later went back to the bin just to make sur and there was the most faint line we could hardly see it.then went on to retest the day after and the line was a little darker went on for a BT and we were PG so i think you are hun best of luk to you and take care
A LINE IS A LINE:dance::dance:
Home safe and sound with blasties on board...FS checked that we were ok with having twins lol...feeling very hopeful...off to check out the TWW thread..thanks again everyone for your ongoing love and support xxx
That's great Ellie, i knew they would thaw great!! Here's to a quick 2ww!!! :stickyvibesboy: x2!!!
Lauz- thanks for your thoughts. I guess i just have to wait see....
Rols- everytime i get off the plane into that fresh air....is fantastic. I miss home at the moment, especially my mum :( DH and i have been down twice in last four months and has been great. Maybe one day we will settle down there, but there's not much really for me (as in work), there right now, or DH.
BG- sounds really promising, haha, i wonder how many more HPT's you will do before the blood test!!
Other news- we bought a puppy!!! Going to pick it up in Perth when we get there, exciting ++. A great dane!!
Hi to everyone else, hope things are going well.
Mel
Mel, I'm so sorry things have been rough for you. Don't ever think that you don't deserve love and support as much as anyone else. Please take care of yourself. And great news about the puppy!! Very jealous !
BG - wow you! You little dark horse :p Not sure how you manage to wait until Thursday, but i will keep toes all crossed for you!!!
Ellie - Stick little blasties...Stick, stick, stick!!!
BW - Your coping skills are awesome - All this frustration, but you manage to stay on track.
Hope everyone is well, especially all you quiet ones (you know who you are)
:hello: Jo
:p Jo, Wanna tell that to my FS? Spent the day with a little 7 week old bub - and did really well. No tears, no painful thoughts... I really think I'm in the right place to go again... I'm just not sure whether it's a permanent thing or not yet.
BW
Good on you BW!
I had a melt down yesterday before visiting the new nephew but was fine at the hospital...so you're doing heaps better than me and I've had my transfer today!!! I would have been waiting a long ime to be 'ready' so I decided that now we just keep going..TTC is just something we do now until it works...that was a huge turning point for DH and I...has really taken the pressure off...if you want to go again...DO IT!!!!
I agree with you Ellie- about knowing when you are ready. For us, it was really hard after the m/c. BW, i never thought id be ready again, i NEVER wanted to do ivf again. I just didnt understand. The feeling of losing that baby (and even though it was 8 weeks, it was still a baby to us), was just desperate. Not knowing when, how, why... I will never forget the baby that might have been, but honestly it didnt take all that long before we wanted to try again. Doing nothing, when you know ivf is the way it has to be, is hard. BW you will just know when you want to again. You will feel it, and you are such a strong person, and you are brave enough to face your FS and tell him you are ready, that is, when you are ready!! Thats great you spent time with a little bubba today. Just after i m/c i met my baby nephew for the first time. I cried when i saw him, now i just love him to bits. Im with you Ellie, we just have to keep going until it works, and if, for us, its not this cycle, then maybe it will be next. At least my expectations of how many follicles will be diff!
Hi Jo, thank you :) Hey and i see you bought your new house, i am way jealous!! Hope everything is going great for you.
Mel
Ellie, top work and well done. Really pleased for you.
BG, I thought you were acting dodgy, I had you sussed! Fingers crossed for good news with the BT.
Kotare, congrats on the house. At least you can get out of lifting heavy stuff!
Hi to the rest of the gang.
dodgy???
i should be offended, but i was acting a little suss! just had to get my head around things - i only spilled the beans today cos i just couldn't bring myself to lie to you guys, and there are only so many ways to stretch the truth or avoid the topic, before i had to admit to myself that i was being "dodgy" :)
Thanks Ellie and Mel... had a lovely dinner out tonight chatting with Sarah and Holly about things. I think then that I realised that while I can sit here and feel like I'm ready to go again, the thought of being in that transfer chair is just a little too confronting still. It's easy to feel like you're ready to go again when you are still so far away from it. I think I just need to keep reminding myself that I need the test results and I need to see the psychologist... The FS didn't put me through all that for fun and games, he put me through it all to make sure I wasn't going to end up in an even worse state of mind, and these are all the things that I've got to do first.
BG, I'm so glad you've 'fessed up at last. It's so hard sitting on news like that and needing to keep your mouth shut. I have to confess that I did end up telling Holly, but only because I'd assumed she'd have already read it here and she hadn't!
and now... I so desperately need sleep!
