Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception - November 2008

[TaRhLi.]

Thanks Kahlan

I suppose every clinic does different things. I will probably go for 2 x day 3's again to at least feel like I'm doing something. Hopefully we won't loss any in the thaw again this time to make sure I still have lots spare.

I think I'm grumpy today as I had to do all the running around this morning and then come into work and we are also probably putting an offer on a house tomorrow, so my head has been in a spin. Hopefully we will get the wonderful house (3/4 acre with lawn and landscaped garden) in a country town which is 3 doors away from the local primary school for our little one to have a big garden to play in and the school close by.

Mels I am with you. I am trying naturally this month, and I cannot seem to work out if I ovulated. My temp just hasn't risen, but all the other signs pointed to O, so who knows? I would normally O day 12 to 14, but it is day 20 and no sign.

KellyD - I'm sorry you're having a rough time It can be so frustrating and you feel so out of control sometimes. Hoep things look up for you soon.

Thanks Buliej for that info - they never said anything to me about it being hard on the body or not as successful, but I'm willing to take the chance anyway - as you say, having some control helps!

Good luck for you scan JBM

Bub4me = any news hun?

Hey to Possums, Kahlan, Mrs M, Kaydee, Lilmiss, Wishingbaby, Smithy - sorry if i have lost anyone.

[JBM]

hi all: possums. how r you going, thanks for all your encouragement.

kelly: fingers crossed, keep that lining thickening up nicely ready for bubs

mels: waiting, waiting , it's so hard. good luck

kahlan: hi, we all need to blame someone. good luck

neptune: thanks for your encouragement.

afm: this time it doesn't seem real, yes another FET and i am not feeling very positive, i think i am used to seeing the BFN ?!


i am feelin a bit on edge at the moment. i've got a head and neck massage booked for friday along with a full facial, it's couples massage and dh is having full body treatment.
i am looking forward to it very much and i should be nice and relaxed about it.

i don't want to get excited this time as i just can't handle all these bad feelings.

good luck to all

hello to all you beautiful girls im just wanting to say hi and i hope you all have a good week.

[Bub4me]

Had my scan yesterday and I have about 18 follies, about 18mm. I had the trigger injection last night and will go in for EPU tomorrow morning. Felt awful and uncomfortable yesterday and last night, like they were going to pop - so bloated and huge. Not sure if that's from him poking around with the probe, or just the stage I'm at. This morning I don't feel as bad, which kind of worries me... I hope I didn't O before EPU. Do you think that could have happened? I'm border-line OHHS, so if I don't recover from EPU as FS would like then they won't transfer on Monday and will freeze everything till next cycle. that everything's ok.

Bub4me - I'm sure it will be okay, hang in there sweetie

[barney]

bu4me,, hun hang in there by the sounds of things you have some wonderful little eggs in there and great sizes to .

Hi girls

I'm finally joining this thread!

I go in tomorrow for EPU!! I had 14 eggs last Saturday on my last scan ... I'm feeling really GOOD, i'm also very proud of myself, i did my trigger shot myself last night, 1st time ever, the gonal-f pen is easy, so the trigger was a big deal and I just did it .. right on 9.15pm.
ET is friday, a 2 day transfer and if all fertilise okay, we are doing ICSI, then 2 will be going back in .. I'm starting to get excited and it works 1st go , if not, we can go back and do FET. I'm going to QFG , anybody else going to QFG?
Sorry for no personals, I want to get to know you all and GOODLUCK!

Mels77 Hope you get some answers soon

Smithy Hope the TWW is going quickly for you

Sunflowers Good luck with EPU hope your 14 eggies are strong ones

AFM to update you all I got a message on answering mechine from FS on friday saying I had 4 eggs and to do Pregnyl 5000 trigger that night, the problem was I didn't have any of that med at home and no way of getting a hold of it till monday at the earlist, anyway tried ringing FS back straight away kept getting answering mechine, stress and worried all weekend. Monday tried ringing FS all day and again kept getting answering mechine same story today, not sure what is going on, was wondering if anyone on this thread was seeing DR Nicole Sides in Canberra and was having the same difficulties getting in contact with her, it is really very frustrating.

Hope you all are having goodluck with what every stage you are up to.

Hi girls

A quick post from Port Douglas to hope everyone is going along smoothly - hubbie calling -

Our two on board seem to be handling the heat well, its a lot easier doing half of a ttw on holidays, lets see how crazy I go when we get back

Must go - horses wait for no woman

xxxx

[Neptune]

Wishingbaby - how frustrating, I cannot belive that you STILL haven't heard anything...I know you've probably tried everything, but is there no emergency/alternative number to try???? I'm hoping somone on thsis forum goes to the same clinic and can help you

[Bub4me]

Hi girls-
Thanks for you comforting words. I can't wait to be done with this part of the cycle, and with that many follies hopefully we'll get some good fertilisation, and a bunch to freeze - so I won't have to go through this part for a while (we're only transferring one at a time).

Am back to feeling sore and miserable, which is horrible but in a strange way comforting to know I'm back on track with this stuff. Was very teary and emotional at work today, and am stressing out and very uncomfortable, so have come home 2.5 hours early to relax and calm down. I hope I get some relief after EPU tomorrow. Am starting to feel a bit anxious about the procedure (I'm not good with hospitals and surgery etc), but trying to stay positive. Keeping my eye on the prize.

Hope everything's going well with you gals, and thanks again for replying - I needed it today!

[barney]

hang in there BUB4ME your doing great hun and not long now

[LNB]

Hi Ladies -

Take care,
