Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June 2013

So sorry Myturn, sorry you are going through this again.

Catyo congratulations :-)

Missb I am hoping the conversation wasn't about your eggs and if it was I am sorry you now have this hurdle.

N2L thinking of you, sorry for your loss.

Hi to everyone else.

I know i am not actively in here ttc atm but just thought i would share where i am at..I got a referral today to see a phsychologist to deal with everything to do with our losses and facing a life with no children as I am not coping so hopefully it will help and I might be able to stop hoping everyday.
Thank you for every bit of support you all give and allowing me to still pop in here xoxoxo

Congrats catyO.... Glad to see some more good news this month :leap:

Thanks beautiful kerbear - glad to hear you are going to "chat" to someone. Hopefully it will help :hug:

im doing okay today... Had a good day at work which helps - I've got a student with me at the moment, and she thinks I'm awesome ;) always good for the self esteem, plus a couple of good meetings, felt like I might have helped today.

Just checked the scales and I am 400grams down from Sunday morning (and its now evening so it might be more... Will check in the am if I remember :) ) so that feels nice - not actually trying that hard... Just not eating any snacks and crap (which has been easier than I thought so far - even with the emotional puddle of mess I was last night, I just didn't want to drown my sorrows with food like I usually might... Good sign for the future.... But it will be two or three or four weeks down the track that things are really tested....

Got a nice blue bruise from Tuesdays BT, and probably, have a matching one tomorrow..... But I'm doing okay. As I said tonight to DH when complaining about our unsuccessful cycle.... It really was closer to successful than not.... A embryo that made a brief attempt at trying to stick... Probably meaning something was wrong with it, and seven frozen embryos to keep us going for seven months :) surely.... Surely one of those at least is the lucky one.

Jasmine, yay for 10 eggs! I hope you have a good selection of snowbabies to freeze in a few days. Sorry to hear the bleeding started again. That's so frustrating! I hope the HRT cycle puts an end to it.

kerbear, good to hear you've found someone to talk to. Those are huge issues to tackle so I'm sure it will help to have someone guiding the way. I'm interested in hearing how you're doing, so I'm always happy for you to drop by with an update. :hug:

myturn, sounds like great progress! My diet efforts are up and down like a yo-yo, so I'm going to have to try harder to keep up with everyone else in this group. ;) Let us know how you go tomorrow.

myturn well done its just so hard to lose weight your doing well xxx

kerbear really pleased you have found someone to talk to hopefully it will help. Please keep us updated will be looking forward to hearing how your going xxx

Jasmine 10 eggs is great hope you have good fertilisation rates fx, boo to the witch returning you must be devastated hope everything goes back to normal soon xxx

CatyO HUGH CONGRATULATIONS WISHING YOU A H & H 9 MONTHS XXX

Jasmine, my head is just not screwed on properly these days, I so wanted to wish you well for your EPU, I'm sorry hun. But yay for 10 eggies! That's awesome hun. I, like you, will be having (hopefully) a frozen transfer, so we won't be far off each other. Apparently because I had the nasal spray as trigger, frozen transfer is the only option. Sorry you won't get your fresh transfer, that damn witch!!

Myturn, I'm glad you're in a better place right now, hang in there x

Oh Kerbear, I hope that the psychologist can help with your struggles. I saw one for quite a while and she was a Godsend.

Thanks so much everyone for your kind thoughts :grouphug:. I was so nervous today I kept calling my nurse to find out what's happened overnight and I finally got the call at almost 3.30. Why do they torture us so much? It turns out 3 eggies have fertilised, and the nurse asked me if I still want to go ahead and try to make them go to day 3 or 5. I was a bit shocked as I honestly expected the worst. I told her what my OH overheard yesterday and she said she'd get the embryologist to call me asap. She must have sensed how upset I was because while I was driving to pick up DS from CC, the mobile rang and I almost ran a car off the road trying to pull over and answer it. Anyhoo, I explained to the lady what my OH overheard yesterday and how I had no sleep last night and she laughed and asked why I didn't call back yesterday instead of worrying myself silly. She said that the guy might have been talking about some of the follicles being too low on fluid which apparently indicates low quality eggs. She said that when they started looking for the eggs the first couple of follies were empty, so maybe that was his concern... In any case, she said 3 fertilised and that they are doing everything they should be, and that's the first huge hurdle. She said that they will update me every day on their progress, and give me an option of freezing on day 3 or 5. I said since I have only 3, I think I will go for day 3. She said that they will assess the situation on day 3 (hopefully they will make it to day 3) but the next big hurdle will be to see if they are suitable for freezing as some embies are not. So I am still not out of the woods, because if they are looking average, and usually they would put them back in as fresh transfer, I don't have that option since I can only do a frozen transfer due to the fact that I had the nasal spray as a trigger. So now I am starting to wonder if the cycle with the nasal spray could possibly stuff me up now, in terms of not having the option of a fresh transfer :dunno:.

at least that's better news - but how frustrating that they can't do a freshie if they are not good for freezing :wall:

I know hun, I should have raised the point with my FS before I started the cycle :wall: I'm thinking if they are not suitable for freezing on day 3, and I could have had a freshie instead, I could potentially end up with nothing to transfer at all :wall:

3 embryos is awesome miss b :) that's the most I've ever had fertilise and I had 11 eggs taken!!! Xxx

Miss B - I find that weird that your clinic used the nasal spray for trigger at all if you can't do fresh transfer. I also find it strange they are asking what you want to do with your embryos ie freeze day 3 or 5. So sorry your going through this. I would be so annoyed. It is good news getting 3 though. Sending you hugs

Jasmine - congrats on your 10. Fx for good fertilisation rates. I really hope the progynova quickly stops the witch & you can have success with hrt cycle.

Hi kerbear - glad to hear you feeling a little better. Xx
