Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception Jan 2013

Hi Everyone!

Can I jump in again please? Sorry it's going to take me a bit longer to catch up with everyone's stories and where everyone is at- but let me just say I'm rooting for you all.

So I'm CD5 - FSH ov induction number 10 and the first one after my 12 week loss in October. It sucked big time going back to the clinic- it was hard. I know some of you but have been jumping in and out over the last 22 months.

Hoping for success quickly (obviously! haha) but we will prob do 3 and then IVF if no success.

Hoping and praying 2013 brings us all our precious babies.

Oh krikket! My ( . )( . )s were leaking for about a month or so and AF was a bit before six weeks after d&c. It sucks, and I am so so sorry for you beautiful xoxo like have no ideas other than waiting it out. It's best to not 'play' with them, although I couldn't help myself but continue to check them .... Mixed feelings of this is so cool, to oh my god this is terrible!! It will stop eventually though so just use this time as a chance to have a break and regroup/ refresh and enjoy each others company - if you can xoxo

too many repeat members in here, I'm so sorry ladies, I wish we didn't have to go through all this drama.

:hello: to all the newbies to this thread, I hope your stay is short!!!

Afm.... Well I am cycle day 10 today... Can you put me back in the list juniper.... I'm not actively doing IVF for a while, but am secretly (or not so secretly!) continuing to hope that miracles can happen. Focus for now is on weight loss and hopefully try a cycle later this year all going well. Here's hoping my motivation can kick in soon and the weight just fall off me... Ha ha.... ;)

Sorry for the late list. Busy day today - our miracle IVF princess turned 2! I'm going to need the long weekend to recover!

Hi and welcome (back) to those (re-)joining us! :hello:

Furbabies, I hope the EPU goes well! Let us know how you're doing when you're feeling up to it!

Afm, I'm so over this TTC crap. +OPK days ago, temp rise 3 days later (matching up with CM to suggest O was 48 hours after the +OPK) then temp dropped back down the next day (yesterday) and stayed down again this morning. It's times like this I just want to quit. :cry:

feeling really dumb here, i got my thermometer last month and didn't get the chance to get used to it with our bfp. .now that my cycle has returned i took out again but the screen kept saying lo. i spent 3 days looking for a battery which was $4 would you believe only to change the thing and still get it saying lo!!
eventually it dawned on me to check the instructions and yep, that is what it does when you are supposed to start taking temp. at least when the battery actually does run out i have a spare ;-)

kbudgie, sounds the same as my thermometer.

Speaking of my thermometer, it must have read my post from last night because my temp went up to the proper post-O range today. No idea if I O'd yesterday or back when I had the +OPK. I'm hoping it was near the +OPK because we didn't BD the last 3 days since we were so busy/tired. :(

Hi everyone,
Had my EPU yesterday, still a bit sore today, but I bled a lot more than normal apparently!
Only got 5 eggs :( but all 5 have fertilised so :pray: they make it to blastocyst stage :crossfingers:

FX furbabies and hope you feel better soon

.fx for you furbabies

Welcome back lyra stardust and greenslw really hope your stay is short

myturn - FX for a miracle for you :goodluck:, Good luck with the weight loss as well
i'm also jumping on the bandwagon with you and need to lose weight

Furbabies - Congrats 5 eggs is fantastic FX they all make it to blastocyst


AFM: All my tests have been negative so really just waiting for AF to start then i start the injectables thank goodness. I am now desperate to lose 5kgs
( i actually have about 30kgs to lose alltogether) but i know i fell pg with DS3 when i was 5kgs lighter and since i only have 3 more cycles left i now have
to really do something about it before its too late. I only have till my cycle in late march to have any chance of becoming pg as thats all the sperm we have
stored and DP wont do any more and his away now for the next 6 to 10 months working only coming home every now and then. So i have to do everything i can so i can be satisfied or try to be if nothing happens and we give up at the end of march so i'm really :pray: for a miracle.

Hi all-
Sorry I've been absent.
Just quickly as I'm on my phone- could I be changed to 2DPO- CD16?
We're not doing any AC till probably March.... I'm just not feeling it ATM.

I'm 9dpo (I think!)

Thanks Juniper :D

Done and done! Thanks ladies. I was just starting to wonder about you both with those numbers creeping up... Hope you're both doing well. :hug:

Went to see doctor Saturday morning to get referral for the IVF clinic.

The doctor we saw is not certain IVF is our only option like the vasectomy specialist we saw 6-7 years ago advised. He said the advances in surgery mean vasectomy reversals are more and more successful now, and if a reversal could be done, he would much rather see us go down this path as IVF is a very invasive surgery option.

He's given us the referral we need, and told us to call the office on Thursday. He's going to contact his specialist friend between now and then and discuss our case with him and see if the specialist feels a reversal might be worth re-looking into.

Furbabies, am keeping my fingers crossed for you, how's it going?

Mel - That sounds exciting! What do you think? What does your other half think of it?

Juniper - hope you managed to get a bit of a rest after your daughter's birthday!

Lyra - welcome back, how are you keeping up?

Hi to N2L and myturn, Emma, and anyone else I've forgotten... Quite a few of us on here now, including some newbies!

AFM - Had another blood test this morning, now waiting for phone call to hear when to report for next blood test and scan and pick up trigger injection and pessaries... Time is going so slowly at the moment and I can't wait to be PUPO again, bring it on.
