    on the verge of greatness!

    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.

    how did your poas go dreamtime? was it this morn?

    sending these to all and to my babies:

    Morning lovely ladies, just a quick one as have to run off to a meeting.

    My POAS this morning was a BFN, for one small moment it looked like a second very very faint line, but I am kidding myself. I am 11dpo today, using Lullaby Conceptions 10iu so if there was HCG there, it would have shown up. Oh well, trying to think positive that at least we are so lucky to have IVF as a chance. So now hope AF comes quick so I can start pill popping and get into the next cycle.

    Hayley, great news re your embies, hope they progress wonderfully, grow embies grow, and great to have all 8 powering along!

    Saph, welcome back, hope your time back in here is very short

    Buliej, hope you are doing ok today

    Kaydee, anything yet?

    JBM, what will power you have to wait until Sunday, hope it is so worth it with a fabulous BFP

    Mrs M, good luck with your bloods on Friday, not long now

    Gotta run ladies, have a great day, hugs xx

    BecD: Hope this last attempt works for you.

    Kahlan, Spring, Wouldloveabubba, Mrs P Hope everything is working out for you all

    If I have missed anyone I am sorry but like I said before it has been a while since I was here.

    AFM: Had and internal US with FS today she said my lining was looking really good, and I have a 17mm follicle in my left ovary and another follicle in my right ovary that was a little smaller, so anyway she was happy with that so I am now going to trigger tonight with Pregnyl 5000 again then another BT on Monday and Booster Pregnyl 1500 shots next tuesday and Friday so it means DP and I have to BD like crazy over the next few days. FS also said there was a possiblity of Twins which I really wouldn't mind but I will also be just as happy if we managed to get one so fingers crossed and this is the cycle for us.

    Hi everyone!

    WOW there are so many newbies!
    just an update, my DP got his bloodwork back and everything is wonderful! perfect thyroid and testosterone and a few other things, so its just the stupid sperm! I pretty much begged the doc for a fertility specialist but he insists they will just refer us toa urologist because of DP problems but doesnt the FS deal with that? I dont get it! anyway I guess we will go and exhaust every option with the urologist first and will give us time ti save for IVF/ICSI! good luck all!

    Hi Ladies,
    I haven't been around for a while but I'm back on board now and keen to keep up with this thread as best I can. Just a few shout outs:
    Smithy - woo hoo! Congrats on your BFP.
    JBM - hope you are staying sane sister, or at least not too nutty! Not long now till testing. : )
    Babydreamtime - good luck with your BD! Swim little ones!
    Sara - hi! all the best with the FSH. I didn't find it too bad so I hope you go well with it.
    Grub - yeah, I loved the growing embryo bit - I felt so proud and chuffed with myself! We only got two Day 5ers in the end - one back in and one in the freezer, but still.

    AFM - we are expecting AF to arrive tomorrow or in the next few days when I will be starting prognova (sp) for a medicated FET in mid December. Our biggest hurrdle is telling the family that the previous cycle (our first) in October didn't work...

    Big hugs to you all,
    RUth

    smithy - Hon I am so sorry Sending you my love xxx

    Lisa- That is brilliant news!!!!! Will be waiting with bated breath for your beta
    Hayley - yep crinone is a b8tch but its better than the pessaries!!! Will keep my fingers crossed that your embies last the distance and you get some to freeze.

    Have my BT and scan tomorrow and if they are okay I will have FET next Friday. Im a little conflicted -If I wait to have the transfer on the following Monday I can have my FS who I love and has been with me all the way but I will find out the results on the day of my work xmas party and wont be able to drink. If I have it on the Friday I dont have as long to wait but it will be a different doctor, possibly one I havent met before. I need to decide tomorrow, I think I will go for the Friday, just need to find out who the FS is going to be!

    Smithy - sorry again hun, hope that you are okay

    Hayley -hello! and good luck

    Dusty - Hi there! hope you are doing well in the insanity of the 2WW

    Hello to KayDee, Wouldloveabub, 21, Ke;;yD, Possums, Saph and Baby dreamtime!! I confused myself doing all of this, hoep I didnm't miss anyone.

    AFM: I'm on day 3 of my cycle, and started puregon last night. Twas a bit stressful as I was supposed to be home by 6pm to give it then (which was the time I had planned) but I got invited to see a surgical procedure at work that took 7 hours!!!! Didn't get home until 930pm so just did it then. I'm feeling good just 'doing' something towards a future bub.

    sunflower that is most wonderfull news. gl with your blood tests but it sounds like you may not need any more good luck!

    neptune: good luck with your cycle this month.

    mrs m glad your bloods went well,, and hubby's, ah, arhm, role is sorted.

    jbm hangin there, you are so close

    becd i think your good luck was received... the report from the clinic today was:
    3x 'exceptional' googley eggs
    2x compacting and good to go to the freezer
    3x struggling to grow and will be given an extra day to get their act together...

    so that means, one transfer tomorrow at 9.30am and four for the cyro!!! yayayay. super relieved and happy. now if i can just get that whole pregnant thing sorted we'll be right... hmmm

    So now the mantra is stick baby, stick.

    sending love and hope to all.
