thanks everyone for your well wishes. And I'm really sending the love back to everyone who's posted, where ever they are at. good luck.
egg pickup went well, we got 11 good ones. doc says 1-2 were a little on the small size but there were some nice big ones apparently. am just in bed snoozing and resting now. pretty tender in the belly. am gulping down water as advised by nurse. am anticipating tomorrow's call to the clinic of what has fertilised. but it's out of our hands now so here's to hope!
*ps sorry i haven't sent any personal messages out there, am finding remembering conversations a little confusing atm but sure i'll get used to forum world.

: feeling guilty
just a quick note. i did a test, i know prob too early. i am on day 23 of cycle and embie would be day 8. day 28 is sunday and you'd think if there was a change i'd at least have a slight 2nd line by now ?
anyway i think we will go onto another cycle and ask for our last 2 to be thawed and if only 1 survives at least i could get one?
i just don't know as this will be it as dh has said he not doing it again. and they had to take his little friends out with a needle ( ouch).
JCM, Bec is right, probably the earliest you will detect HCG with super sensitive HPT is 10dpt (of a blastocyst). Also urine is a pretty bad detector of early HCG, blood is much better. Don't give up!
Glad you found the thread Hayley, great result and good luck!

All you lovely ladies I am so sorry to see you are still in here. Have had an extended break as my 10 weeks of working full time ended up being 6 months. In that time we had our lovey holiday to day dream island, but my dad also passed away. DH has asked me to start the treatment again and will probably look at starting again after christmas so I may see you all in here again, but hopefully you will all be gone by the time I get started.
hi all, i'm so happy atm but can't find my hubby on the phone. so you guys are the first to know... well i did tell the dog but she wasn't that impressed.
just rang the clinic and all of our 8 embies are doing well. we have three two cells; one three cell and four four-cell embies in the googley egg cooker! yay. i'm so relieved because i was paranoid we would have no growers.
the embroyologist said going on that growth rate a saturday transfer was a definite goer. phew. so i ring back tomoz to get the new numbers and some more details.
i know this may sound strange, but having never ever been pregnant (at least to my knowledge), just the thought of a little joint dh and me making cells is really exciting. it can be done! lol.
jbm, don't lose hope. sunday is a long way off still. i know we are only new to this but i find it helpful not to think too far ahead, to look at the next goal and focus on that without worrying too much about what's down the track because as well all know, no matter what you think is going to happen, it never does turn out that way! and hubby may feel differently in a few weeks or months. i'm not sure what the emoticon hug is but i'm sending you one, plus some super sticking power.
bec d , kaydee 78, sara 69 and kahlan thanks for the welcomes and votes of confidence.
We just rang the clinic, out of the 11 googley-eggs collected, 8 were mature and fertilised. We have to go to blasto stage and we had ICSI done. I'm 27, dh is 28 (only by a month). I have PCOS but am good otherwise and he has boys that as our specialist put it "are happy sitting around on the sunlounge drinking ****tails''. lol.
as this is our first cycle our real main goal is to get some embryos to day 5. If by a miracle we get pregs that would be the absolute icing on the cake. but i'm really am just going to make friday/sat our party day - if we have any eggies that is! we have a saturday transfer then i hav two horrendously busy weeks at work while i'm relieving my boss so i think the Dec 1 BT will suddenly arrive on my doorstop without too much dillydallying around.
ps found the emoticons. lol. those are for all.
Hayley, congrats with the great EPU and 8 embies, fingers crossed they power along growing to blastie, does that make your ET Fri? And the 1st seems just around the corner already
Dusty, hope you are holding up ok in the TWW, we are all praying for you
JBM, it is way to early to test, though I too can never resist, hang in there, sending you lots of baby dust and sticky vibes
Mrs M, not too long to go now til you see the Dr, hope time is speeding by
BecD, how are you going with this FET cycle, does that make ET end of next week? Hope you are well
Kaydee, bring on the LH surge!
Sara, hope all is going well with your cycle, how exciting, grow follies grow
Wouldloveabubba, sending you lots of positive vibes for your IUI this cycle
21, looks like there will be plenty of us kicking off Jan 09 with a bang (or rather an O), fingers crossed for you and all of us
KellyD, good luck in the TWW, we will be praying for you
Buliej, I hope you are ok, our thoughts are with you and we are here if you need us
Possums, you are sounding much more positive, I hope you are having a relaxing break, praying for a natural BFP for you, and if not, Jan 09 is just around the corner
AFM, my temps say I have ovulated, YAY, 10dpo today, just because I am crazy with hope and you never know your luck, I will POAS tomorrow morning, if by some wild streak of fate I got a BFP, well it can happen, what a dream come true that would be! If not, at least my cycle length will be a respectable length this month, only 31 days (much better than my last natural cycle post stim cycle of 44 days, yuk).
If all goes to plan AF will arrive on Sat, I start the pill on Sun for min 28 days, wait for AF again, start stims Xmas day (HOHOHO), EPU 7 Jan, ET 12 Jan and BT 23 Jan. OMG, control freak or what? LOL. So now just praying all goes to plan, how exciting!!
Hope you are all having a great week, sorry if I have missed anyone, sending you all positive vibes! Hugs, xx
