Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
I forgot to mention, I was talking to my acupuncturist about the AF changes (ie shorter and lighter) and she said it's a good thing. She said that the way mine use to be (starting straight from nothing to the heaviest flow, super heavy, lots of clots) was not how it's meant to be and she thinks the more gradual start to it and decreased heaviness are a big improvement. Just thought I'd mention it for the others worrying...

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
Thanks guys so much for all the support.
Thanks also Juniper for sharing what your acupuncturist said. I think that's what my TCM lady said too.
AFM well we were in the Royal Childrens for a couple of nights with our daughter with a UTI which was pretty bad (fevers, vomiting, high blood sugar and loads of finger ***** tests). So relieved to be home with her now and she is on the mend.
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
Joski, boo AF arrived
Hello Miss Kris and GL with your journey!
Positively, let's hope you've caught that eggie on the weekend. We've been DBing as well, you never know hey!
Worrywart, I hope your DD is OK, poor love
AFM, scan was this morning and lining is 8.2 mm, and I'm surging now or soon or something is happening as the FET is booked for Friday. OH finishes work around 11 in the morning but I doubt I'll have any rest as when they are both home I never sit down. I'm thinking of kicking them out to the park for a few hours lol. Saturday would have been better as my mum and dad look after DS when I work, I would have had them have DS all day and I would have rested. Oh well, let's see what happens.

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
Hi Ladies, hope everyone is well and enjoying their Tuesday so far
Miss Kris - welcome to our lovely forum hope you enjoy your stay with us and i hope it's a short stay too
Joski - boo to the witch but great news re your more regular cycles!
Miss B - hope you fertilize an egg naturally with the bding and your little frozen embie sticks too, twins a scary but nice thought I think. GL for Friday I have heard so many mixed reviews on resting after the transfer and then just carrying on as normal my FS said it's not good to rest and the blood doesn't flow to the uterus as it should. who knows though I say go with whatever works for you at the time.
Speaking of twins I found out a women at the gym is 15 weeks along with twins but she is flat you can't even tell she is pregnant, she is stick thin and there is zero tummy
WW - Hope DD is on the mend now
Juniper - thanks for sharing what your acupunturist said re the changing cycles, good news then
Well Ladies I do wish you all a really great day, GL with your TTC hoping to see some good news on our forum soon. Love, light and loads of baby dust to all xx
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
Thanks Positively . I am so torn as what to do after transfer....I rested really well in the past which gave me my BFPs, but then I heard moving a lot is good too like you've said, to aid the blood circulation. I have a close friend who pretty much did everything BUT rested after her transfer and she still got pg, so you just never know I suppose. Twins would be scary!! lol. I seriously don't think I could cope with two haha. My OH's daughter has 2 yo twin boys and geez they are a handful (gorgeous but into everything!). She's about to add to her little brood in late May, I think she's now worried as is her DH, how they will cope with 3 under 3 lol. She is only 29 and she's still got plenty of energy, when I think of myself I think, no way!! lol.

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
Juniper could you please put me down as waiting for af. I am taking this month off trying to lose weight I have put on 10kg and if I could
not fall pg before extra weight is definitely not going to help at all. Puppy is gorgeous but really needs to be toilet trained asap cause its driving me
crazy lol. I know I just started trying to lose weight but think I might have a few drinks later. Today was baby's due date so not that happy today
and dh just does not say anything at all about it, he does not even remember today was her due date:-( I guess like everything else I just have to
deal with it by myself in my own way, men are inconsiderate pigs sometimes well mine is at least. Sorry for the ***** hope everyone is going well
in there cycle xxxx
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
Eeek 3 littlies under 3 now that's scary! I am with you Miss B I think twins would be really difficult but then with struggling to conceive I will be so grateful to be given 2. My Nan is a twin so who knows i guess
1 more - oh hun big hugs to you on this difficult day, sending lots of love and light to you too! I bet DH is thinking about it just not saying anything men deal with things so differently to the way us women do.
My DH does think about it we have been walking out at night a few times and he has said i wonder what they would be doing now etc? he is a good communicator though so happy to say what he is thinking so i really do think all men think it they just dont voice it
Have a drink for me please!! im in the 2 week wait so no drinkies for me
AFM - we are off to Adelaide tomorrow morning the trip was planned as we had Rolling Stones tixs but that is now on hold...so sad. Anyway still looking forward to our 4 night break as once i get back it's only a week before AF arrives and we start a FET cycle
so i might not be on much over the next few days but I am always thinking of you all so GL Ladies, all the best xx
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
Rai, those milestone dates are always hard. Hope you can find some comfort to get you through the rest of the day. I'm working on the weight issue too (cutting out refined sugars and reducing intake of highly processed foods), but allowed myself some treats at our niece's 1st birthday party on Sunday and a little wine last night (first drink in weeks). As long as it's a "treat" rather than a daily thing, don't stress over it. xx

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
Okay Miss B you've given me the courage to post out of nowhere (sort of) we have decided to do a FET this month! I am currently CD 6 with my first blood test on Sunday which will be CD 9. We are doing an unmedicated cycle - EXCEPT that my FS now uses Clomid from day 2 - day 6. So I'm taking that. We will be transferring a single day 5 blastie (hopefully)! We have one on ice and on day 3 they will defrost two others and then if all three make it - they will decide which one to put back on the day. I'm pretty regular so I'm guessing transfer day will be CD19 so Wednesday April 2. I'm terrified it won't work. There will be no more fresh cycles. We have 1 day 5 blastie in the freezer and 7 day 3's of varying quality (none are bad quality which is good). I fell pg on my first FET last time - I couldn't have a fresh transfer due to OHSS. One blastie and we ended up with identical twins!
So I'm a little terrified of ending up with twins again..... does anyone know where Clomid increase the chances of identical twins? We will only be putting the one embie back....
Miss B in so excited! It seems we may be cycling together? Are you putting one or two embies back? Hello to everyone else and sorry for just barging in. I've been too scared to post at all but as it is now all becoming real, I'd really appraised the support! I am a bit out of Practise so I hope I am posting in the right place? If I'm not please just let me know....
To everyone else that is cycling I wish you the best of luck! It's a heart wrenching journey. I should also say - I do feel bad about coming back here because I already have 4 beautiful children... I guess we just didn't feel finished. So I hope that fact won't make you think I'm selfish or anything, I'd like to be here to support everyone else as well. Xx
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception February/March 2014
thirdtimelucky, the clomid should only increase your risk of twins if you BD at O time... If your blast is going to split like last time, it's not going to be a result of the clomid... The clomid may also bring forward your O day (it did for me for 2 out of 3 clomid cycles). GL with your FET!!
