Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception - Feb 2008 #2

[Peta]

Hi Everyone!
Thanks for all of your kind words after my crankiness yesterday. I have settled down now and realised I wasn't so mad at not starting till next week, more that I was organised for today. Oh well. As you said Plc, everything happens for a reason & I am definitely a believer in that one!
DD - I am keeping my fingers crossed for you, it really isn't over yet.
Plc - I am glad that you are feeling better now after your lap. It annoyed me so much not being able to do anything at that time as I am one of those people who cannot sit still for 2 mins!
Saph - I hope your cycle continues progressing the right way. Grow little ones grow!
BB - good luck with starting meds tommorrow. I always take what I can first up in the morning after my shower. Its just easier for me, then its out of the way for the day. The only time this varies is if I have pessaries and have to take them at specified times throughout the day.
Scooby - how are you doing? Are you still getting pains? I have been getting slight pains for the last week or so - I think it is because I have been on the pill for so many weeks now. Oh well, hopefully they vanish when we start the cycle next week.
Salt & Vicki - how are you both? Taking care of yourselves I hope.
TL - not long to go now - 18th I think from memory (I may have this wrong, my memory is like a seive these days!).
Well everyone take care & here's hoping we all continue in a postive manner.

Hi ladies,

Just dropped in to say hello as I have been a bit slow with posting but I have been trying to keep up with what is going on.

Deni, big congratulations to you, good to hear the positives.

Thanks to everyone for posting your stories, I have been learning lots from reading them, it is great to hear what others are doing

I had the trigger injection this afternoon with IUI tomorrow lunch time and acupuncture in the afternoon. There was only one at 20mm and one a bit smaller but still have my fingers crossed to see how we go. From what the FS was saying i mustn't of had a good response to the clomid.

TL - That's great that you have your lap booked in, i know i have been keen to get mine over and done with, hope the time is going quick for you. I also have a tentative lap booking for 18/3, to be confirmed by FS. I cant find your email address, can you please email me at michwyn@iprimus.com.au.

Lots of babydust and good luck to everyone.........have a great day tomorrow...Shel

Hey all, thanks to everyone who welcomed me back so warmly - it was lovely to be embraced back into the fold!

Scooby: sounds like your follies are going great - I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. I had pain from a few days before EPU which was exacerbated when I had a full bladder. I hope it eases a bit for you.

Peta: how annoying about your scan. I know what you mean about mentally preparing yourself for a certain date. It's very unsettling when it all changes.

Tiggerlinda: thanks mate - we're keeping our fingers crossed!

Dellydoo: I will be sending lots of your way in hopes that AF doesn't rear her ugly head.

Saph: wishing you luck with managing the mood swings - I empathise!

Salt: I have my BT on 10 March also - are we cycle buddies??? I think I read somewhere else that it was your hubby's birthday last Sunday?? Mine too! Weird huh?!

plc: thanks mate, and same to you!

Shel: good luck with the IUI tomorrow. It only takes one egg!

Deni: congratulations!!!! that's wonderful news!

Well, an update from me: I had my transfer today, and it all went to plan. It was all a bit surreal watching the egg on the screen being put inside me. My FS said it's 50/50 at this stage, so I'm trying to be realistic, but I'm just so excited. I just hope it sticks....I will be so devastated if I'm not pg.

A question for you gals who might have had this problem before: I seem to be having an attack of thrush. Is it safe to apply Canesten and take the one dose only pill??? I don't want to do anything to jeopardise my little embryo sticking, but I don't think I can handle the discomfort until the 2WW is over. Has anyone experienced this?? Would love any info on this.

Hi Ladies

Sorry to jump into your thread

I saw Vicki's post and just wanted to say that last time i had to take this stuff the chemist mentioned that you can't take the once off tablets if you are pregnant, but to use the 7 day cream as its not as strong. Hope this helps

Good luck and to you all !!

Shan

Hi Vicki, I've also heard that the pill is no good during pregnancy. If you go to the pharmacy they will let you know for sure what you can use. Welcome to the TWW!

[dellydoo]

good luck to all and thanks so much for your unstinting support - it means so much!
