to Sara, mollygirl and eveyone else
AFM, am feeling quite relaxed at the moment although Ive got a bit of a head cold and sore throat, which Im not happy about. My DP was sick last week so have got it from him. I hope that doesnt affect my little embie and implantation.
Sorry I am at work so no personals. Just a quick one to say that we had the scan and couldnt see much of anything. Dr thought he was jumping the gun a bit having a scan on CD9 (after 5 days of stims) so I have to call at 11am to get her E2 levels and we will probably go in for another scan on Saturday which will be CD13. I think she will be on FSH for a while. Does anyone know if being on stims past day 14 or 15 is a bad sign? Hoping not. Kim was a bit upset she couldnt see any follicles yet... is this normal?
Baby DT - Thanks for your support and GL with your FET
Smithy - GL with AF and embies
Twomums - GL with scan etc. Hope you get that BFP, fingers crossed for you
Rob - So sorry for your embies but glad to see your still positive about moving forward
TrueBlue - GL my great friend and have fun TTC naturally. Everything is crossed for you and Billy
JBM - thanks for your support and goodluck with FET on Wed. Thinking of you and have everything crossed for you.
Tania - Congrats having one - hope it is a BFP.
Sorry if i have missed anyone - just there are so many in here now but I really am thinking of everyone, hoping we all get in the next few months.
AFM - Hoping that we have conceived naturally with AF due in a few days but have seen Dr Mac T yesterday and we are all set to start our next IUI and DH has to get two samples - so that will be interesting. But this may be the last IUI we do because Dr T is feeling that because DH sperm count is always so varied and up and down that perhaps we would have more chance of success with full blown IVF. Play it by ear I guess. I am in a good spot at the moment though because I suppose at least there is plans in place and moving ahead.
Hi Loops. We have exactly the same thing. DH's soldiers are up, then down. We had our 3rd IUI on Wed last week and like the nurses have said....we have 'Unexplained Infertility'. She said this is more annoying because they can't actually pinpoint why we are having trouble trying to fall pregnant! Arrrgghhhh!!!! Anyhoo GL with everything - hope you have a BFP naturally!
Twomums - I didnt respond well during my 2nd stim cycle so I was on FSH for 12 days so its not out of the ordinary. I too was on 225 iui that time and had no follicles after 6 days so I wouldnt worry too much. Good luck.
Loops - hope AF doesnt arrive and you conceive your natural miracle
Baby2Bee - yes it is very hard when it is unexplained infertility but I suppose things could be a lot worse so we need to remain positive. Thanks for your support and the best of luck to you and your DH. Hope AF doesnt arrive.
Sorry for the selfish post, but I am too excited, don't have much time, and just had to get my news out.
My FS appointment went well, I have a lead follie at 11mm, another scan hopefully on Saturday morning, and if ok I will trigger on Saturday to O on Monday, for ET the following Saturday, hoping my 3 blasties will thaw fine so I have 2 to transfer.
But that is not the good news, if you can call my news good, but I am so happy that they have found 'something' wrong.
I have tested positive to MTHFR (for a I joke I call it mother f**ker, lol). This was one of the only BTs my last FS didn't request, not sure why, or if it was just an error. My new FS saw it was missing and asked for it right away.
From what I have googled so far, it is related to thrombophilia, it means I am not absorbing folic acid and B6 and B12, can lead to increased levels of homoscystein, and also blood clotting disorders. And something to do with the proteins of this gene inhibiting fast growing cells, which is what an embryo is.
So, I am on large doses of folic acid, B6, B12, baby aspirin and will be injecting Clexane from ET. Now back to hoping that this makes all the difference, at least this is something to address. Fingers crossed for me.
Love to everyone, will be back in for personals soon, hugs xx
I'm loving the name! Fingers crossed that this is the problem that's has been stopping your BFP's! (feels strange being happy about it!!). We don't know what our problem is and that's the worst bit i think!
Just wanted to let you know that I have pulled my self out from the hole i was in and am feeling much better. Besides I just have to say, how cute is my puppy in my avatar - it looks just like my little girl Lilly and I smile everytime i see it!!!
This is my first time on this thread so hello to everyone.
We are just starting out on our first IVF cycle. Doing down reg and on the pill at the moment and will start synarel in about 2 weeks which I'm not looking forward to at all with all this talk about how much it hurts etc!!! I sometimes wonder whether I shouldn't do so much reading - perhaps ignorance is bliss?
Kmond welcome on board! I have days when I think i'm reading too much...........however this is the best forum and you can learn sooooo much! just choose what you want to listen to! Good luck on your journey!
to Sara, mollygirl and eveyone else
in the next few months.
