Hi girlsthis rollercoaster that we call ivf certainly throws a few curve balls at ya - found out today that we only have 3 embies fertilised out of 19 eggs, the rest just didnt make it... very disappointed, this time FS had promised to defrost all the frozen tesa (10 vials) to make sure we had the best ones but the scientists only did 1, drives me crazy to think that maybe it was handled badly.. shakes my faith in the ivf team anyway. Everyone says it only takes 1 to make it, but last cycle my 3 embies only gave 1 chance for FET, the rest didnt culture well enough to blast stage.* Sorry for the 'woe is me' post but its such a frustrating process, not to mention the $$ each cycle!* On the upside, taking it easy today and no sign of OHSS so pretty relived at that one. thanks all for the well wishes, you guys are a great support team!
Bec and BabyDreamtime, best of luck for your ETs and QueenH for your BT. Hey don't the chinese think the 8/8/08 is a lucky date, thats why the olymipcs start then! maybe thats your lucky omen
TL keep safe and well, those MS symptoms are good to hear even if you do feel !! Aahh, the trials we put ourselves through
TL thanks for your support, DH has been great today and yesterday taking care of me. I know we'll get a bfp eventually but its always such a tough road! You must be over the moon about your -to-be, bet you cant wait till the next scan to see how its going - you had two embies transferred right?
lilmisshaveachat, i know you only just starting on the AC/ivF journey so hope your FS visit goes well, at least you know more than i did when i started just be reading everyones posts here and info on web
Well I'm back after a trip away for work. How busy things have been in here.
My biggest of congrats to TL, Janie and MeredithD and anyone else who I have missed who got their BFP's this month. I wish you all the happiest and healthiest of pregnancies.
I have been away for only about 10 days but cannot catch up with personals sorry. Will start again from today.
AFM, had another appointment with FS today and lining is looking great...8.3mm, so I'm all go for a TF on Wed next week. Start the lovely pessaries tomorrow..YAHOO!! Am feeling really positive and strong going into this cycle. It is my 1st TF with my new FS and he has some great ideas. I'm going to be doing pregnyl for the 1st time as well as pessaries and will be having 2 of my frozen blasties transferred if all goes well.
Hi Oscar Oscar - were with Glenn Sterling and think that he and his staff at Life are fantastic. He's well researched, and will answer all of your questions (I suggest you have some ready and then take notes - its hard to remember whats said sometimes because youre exicted/nervous). Glenn's personality and professionalism will put you and your man at ease straight away.
Dont be nervous, and best of luck to you.
ps. they have a website with loads of info (if you havent seen it already) - lifefertility.com.au
I've been out of action for a few days with a naughty cough..
TL - that is fantastic news! Congratulations! I am so happy for you. I wish I could jump down the internet and give you a big hug, but this will have to do
Abbie - my heart goes out to you love. This roller coaster is nothing like I've ever been on before. Last week I was devastated when we were cancelled and thought it would never happen for us, but this week, given we are starting again soon, I feel certain 2009 will see our little will turn up. I also know that I am getting stronger through this - being by far the biggest thing I have ever gone through. That doesn't mean I don't cry or get upset, but I figure when my kids turn up I will certainly treasure them to the ends of the earth and beyond, and perhaps I'll be a better mum because of it.
Big to everyone - you are never far from my thoughts and prayers.
TL - what great results hon!!! I am so happy for you
Abbie- Sorry to hear of your fert results, I would be upset at my clinic as well! Will keep everything crossed for the rest of your treatment xxx
