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
Hi everyone...haven't been chatting as much so I don't think I can catch up with everyone.... just sending a general message to everyone who is going through their cycle, that things progress just as they are meant to, and when they are meant to!
Abbie- it is a tough road and sending you a big . I know my emotions have been up and down this entire year really and now we are back into the uncertainty and lack of control of not knowing when it will all happen for us, and that alone can be hard. Thinking of you. Dealing with issues at work and people knowing can also be a challenge.
Kate- glad you are feeling more positive again. I crashed a bit after our BFN but now also feel more positive that 2009 will bring us our baby too. I guess we are all getting stronger through this and we certainly will cherish our little ones as you said!
nicole- I havent heard of that before (re the egg collection stuff) but I am new to IVF.
oscaroscar- I can relate to IVF being a big step to take. We felt shocked when we were told it really was our best/possibly only option, due to the loss of my tube, and my other tube being in bad shape. It's a lot to take in. Just take it one step at a time. I think in your situation, waiting and hoping would be potentially stressful too, just as IVF can be stressful. I guess only you and your DH can weigh up all the pros and cons given your particular situation. Good luck in deciding on the best step forward next.
Bel- welcome back...glad you are feeling so positive going into your next cycle. it brings you a BFP!
Hi everyone, I am still trying to catch up with everyone's situation, apologies if this take me a while. But I have been online every day now, gosh it can be addictive!
TL congratulations from me too, I can't even imagine how excited you must be (I've never had a BFP) and hope your luck rubs off on the rest of us for our next cycle.
I saw my FS this morning for my CD10 scan, endo is 10.6 mm thick (my best yet) so I am all good to go and am so optimistic that my ET is schedule for 08.08.08. I wanted to ask for a 8am ET but how far can I go with it? I hope it truely is lucky. I feel better about this month. I have the IVF companion hypnosis CD and have been listening to it every night, I must admit I feel much more positive. And my protocol has changed this month. The last two FETs I got my periods 7 and 8 day respectively past ET (when I think it should be 11 dpt based on a 3 day transfer). Has this happended to anyone else? I've still been temping and on both FETs got AF exactly 14 days after my temp rise and before I started progesterone, which doesn't make sense. Sort of felt like I had ovulated depsite being on a HRT cycle??? Any ideas. I discussed this with FS, he has taken this on board and double my Crinone dosage. But yikes, 3 weeks of double dose worked out to $540, though it is worth it.
Another thing, I have only done Day 3 transfers, in fact FS has not even suggested a Day 5 blast, not sure if this because of my embryo quality? I haven't seen Day 5 as an option on the consent forms, I go to John Flynn on the Gold Coast. Hmmm. I will have to ask about this.
thanks girls for all the well wishes, i'm ok at work when i need to be then just let my guard down at home - got DH to give me a back rub tonight which just made me all emotional, guess its true when they say the body is storing all of those emotions away till we deal with them! Thank god, no sign of ohss (apart from still feeling like my jeans should be bigger!!). Had to put my acupuncture visit off till next week (was on day of EPU) so hoping that helps with coping and relaxing
Kate and Possums, you are so right, we;re all on this journey to make us better mums and to value our little ones more because of it
TL thanks for the advice, i know it only takes one so i'm hoping that my little one follows yours soon. we'll try again next cycle, couldn't stand to wait any longer!
BabyDreamtime, haven't been through what youre dealing with but it sure sounds confusing, does your cycle know what its up to? crossing fingers and toes that ET goes well next week
phew, enough from me, time for zzzzzz to all
