Nire, congratulations !!!!!!
Fantastic news :) xxxxxxxxx
Hi N2L I'm on same protocol as u have used this last couple of goes!! This time doing Antagonist with all the extras!
Can I ask what is filgistrim and PPET? Haven't heard of this?
Big congrats Nire x
Hiya Bloss!
The ppet is an injection of HCG into the uterus at the time of transfer.
I copied the following about filgrastim .....
Neupogen (filgrastim) is a drug that causes the body to generate neutrophils, a type of white blood cell which plays an important role in the immune system. Our clinic has investigated its use in fertility treatment as a solution to certain immunologic causes of multiple miscarriages. It has often proven successful when other options have failed. You may benefit from using Neupogen if you have experienced recurrent miscarriages after failed IVIG or LIT and if you meet specific criteria for treatment. The drug is also useful in many cases for the purpose of improving egg quality or improving the tissues of the uterine lining. Our clinic has the largest number of patients in the country that have been treated with Neupogen for failure to initiate and complete a pregnancy. It is critical that your treating physician has vast experience with the use of this drug for fertility.
G-CSF(neupogen) is a cell-signaling protein molecule that can assist with maintaining the immune system in a "resting" state so it will not attack the embryo, it may increases the number of good quality eggs during an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle, increase the number of uterine natural killer cells(which assist in embryo attachment), increase embryo cell division, endometrial cell division and may even reduce inlammatory cytokine production... Patients with recurrent pregnancy loss that have been treated with G-CSF have shown higher pregnancy rates with no evidence to date of complications to mother or baby. You may be a candidate if you've experienced:
Recurrent miscarriages that have failed IVIG, LIT and meet immunologic criteria for treatment; or
Repeat failed IVF cycles with quality embryos (must also meet certain immunologic criteria)
A huge congrats Nire! Great news! Heres to a healthy and sticky 9 months :-)
Congratulations nire, that's great news :-)
Hi ladies hope you have all had a good weekend.
My DH commented on Friday night that I am snappy and moody, great the drugs have turned me into a cow already :-(
I have been conscious to try and not be like that especially today cause it is our first wedding anniversary. I think I have been good considering I had a christening to go to with babies everywhere !!!!
Hope you all are traveling well and have a good week xo
Kerbear: Congrats on your first wedding anniversary!! Hugs for you - functions with babies around you suck big time...
AFM : am quite excited about the transfer on Wednesday, but at the same time am worried I'd be too excited and would be so upset if it didn't work. I wish the transfers came with guarantees, that yes of course they will work with anyone straight away, but nothing like that is possible in real life is it... My sister in law just announced her pregnancy on facebook and so wished it was me :( She never even wanted children... grmbl. Anyhow enough of a whinge. Hope everyone will have a good day...
Hi everyone,
Just had my blood test so I'll find out later today if I start jabbing tomorrow - I am freaked out but excited as things might start moving along a bit quicker now. I've been on Synarel for a month now and it feels like forever. Trying to focus on enjoying my first wedding anniversary rather than stressing out about the injections!
NIRE !!!!!
Omg im gonna cryyyy !!!
Congratssssa !!!!!
Myturn - thank you for sharing your story xx
Jo - chin up sweet cheeks ! FX for folli's
Bloss - welcome to crazy town xx
Kerbear - im a grumpy cow too haha No im sure your not that bad ! Happy Wedding Anniversary & GL !!
Me4eva - good luck with tour transfer
Thinking of all of you lots. I feel like i know you all (-:
AFM - can ovidrel or projesterone pessaries change colour of areolas?
Ps pessary discharge eww eww ewe !
Curtsygirl - I find most of the meds mess with the colour of areolas and soreness of breasts and I always get excited thinking its cause maybe it was cause it worked, but it hasnt been the case yet :-(
I hope yours are changing cause you are pregnant :-)
N2L - I have been meaning to say oh my gosh, when you listed your protocol in detail I almost died, I give you so much credit for how you cope with it all, I struggle with mine and I don't know if I could do your protocol without losing the plot. I am sorry you have to go through so much and the cost as well xo
Reading everyone's stories and protocols makes me realise all the time that we are all here for each other and understand what we are all going through and can share openly on here.
AWWWW NIRE Just wanted to say a BIG congrats!! XXXXX :-)
and happy wedding anniversary Kerbear :-)
Thanks for the info N2l sure sounds good and your protocole looks like a winner!! i have all my fingers and toes crossed for you :-)
Hi everybody :-)
Im 3 DPO today its a wash of a cy though :-( not much hope! i had a massive row with DH after taking my puregon for 4 days and then i chucked it in and stoppped taking it! we made up later but it was a tuff few days and i didnt think we'd b TTC! but when he came from working away we made up and did plenty of DTD lol...
and ontop of it my birthday (dreaded 35!!) party was sat (1DPO) and lets just say i drank a wee bit ;-) ha! ive been too scared to drink like forever and i just partied my butt off for once! ...so over TTC ruling my life for no good reason, no baby comes!!
anyway today when i looked at my FF chart and saw my O Day I figured ah well ill still use my progesterone "just incase"
but wont hold my breath. I just want to do IVF but its not happening at this stage!
anyway id love a suprise ha! dont "NORMAL" people party and get preg by accident everyday?? lol...
and i just have to say i got the rudest shock when i was shopping the other day with DH's son and he goes guess what sarah, my mummy has a baby in her tummy"..... WTF?!! his ex was not even trying and i cannot say how the pitt of my tummy sank or how crazy jelous i felt at that moment!!
Good Luck sweeties xoxoxo
Thankyou so much for all the sweet messages xx it's all still very surreal.
Sarah4Kurt, hon you haven't stuffed up. It is such a rollercoaster. I hope that you still managed to catch that eggie.
Faye*, happy anniversary xx hope you have a lovely night.
Hi to everyone else.
If you don't mind I'll just hang out a little while longer.
nire - congrats! :confetti:
blossom - welcome back! best of luck with your end of year cycle, hope you are feeling ok after a few days of jabs. xx
kerbear - maybe you could inject dh with hormones and see if he gets moody too?! (just a suggestion... ;)). i suggested injecting my dh with clexane so he could feel what its like, the colour drained from his face and he asked if he could do it himself. he he. i was just joking, but his reaction was gave me a cheap giggle.
s4k - goodluck in the tww, hopefully the partying made the difference!
me4ever - best of luck for your transfer wednesday. xx
afm - scan today, looks like epu will be wed/thur this week. after being on the pill & synarel for so long, this last bit has happened quite quickly. quick question - anyone had to alter their puregon/gonal dose mid-cycle? i have been on 250, but after todays scan FS has dropped it down to 150 as there is a quite a bit going on in there & FS is trying to avoid OHSS. fair enough too, i dont want that again. just wondering what others experiences have been dropping the dose, did you end up with less eggs than you thought, how was egg quality etc? just worrying that the eggs might stall/drop away with reducing the dose... :dunno:
:goodluck: Saturday 3rd November 2012 :goodluck:

Got Their BFP in November :leap:
Nire - BFP on HPT!!! :D
Murraycod - Surprise natural BFP!!!
Vic261 - Faint second line on HPT @12dpo!!, confirmed by beta at 14dpo 166.8!!!
(I'll leave our long-awaited October BFPs here a little longer)
Can I ask a question of the synarel sniffers in the thread? What is the longest you've had to sniff? You sniff up to trigger yeah??
What happens if your hormones aren't baseline at your blood test? Do you just keep sniffing until they are?
Thanks :)
yep, sniff right up to trigger. not sure about about BT results, I just had a scan to make sure things were 'quiet' in there & then started fsh.
Thanks Andie :)
Hi all,
Sorry about the list going up so late, I've had a day full of emotions...
s4k- I'm sure you haven't stuffed up hun! Don't worry, DH and I have been having moments like that a lot lately!!! In fact, almost daily, lol.
kerbear- OMG, I totally get the hormonal thing, it's totally like i'm on a roller coaster and it hasn't stopped for 14 days!!! I've been hoping it will be over soon, but not getting my hopes up with that... I keep thinking that if this is the only side effect I feel, then I'm a happy chappy!!! lol
faye- Happy Anniversary!!! Hope you and your DH have spent some quality time together and have really just relaxed!!!
me4ever- good luck and :crossfingers: for your transfer! Thinking lots of positive thoughts for you!!!
curtsygirl- Thanks hun, i'm hoping there is some good change on wednesday, especially as I am getting up so early to go to my appointment! lol
AFM- I have really struggled today, not just with my ttc issues, but with life in general... I haven't been working for the last 8 weeks and financially that has put us in a tough spot... I stopped working so I could concentrate more on Uni and so I could find a job I enjoyed more, and now it is time for me to get out there and find something!!! I applied for some agencies today and I actually heard back from one- they are calling me back on Wednesday, so hopefully I get some work soon!!!
I am currently half way through a "6 week challenge" at my gym and this was actually my BEST week so far- I lost 1.2kg this week bringing my total for the challenge in kg to 2.3kg... My trainer is sending me my cm difference tomorrow so that is where i'm hoping to see better results!!!
Hope everyone is well and to all those in Melbourne- enjoy what is left of our long weekend! I'm gonna head to the gym to work out some frustrations!!!!
xxxxx
Nic- I'm still putting all my stuff together for you, I'll send it this week for you!!! I'm hopefully going to be able to send you some recipes too!!! :)
Can I join in here? There doesn't seem to be much happening in the 12+ month thread but feeling the need to join somewhere, tho I don't think I really count as 'long term ttc". We've been trying on and off since may last year, counting it up it's been 13 months active trying. I've just got hold of some maca tabs to see if that helps so if AF shows this month I'll start taking them from cd1, currently cd27 and 11dpo (I think!)
Hope everyone gets that elusive bfp soon!
Welcome little_mrs! Hope you get your BFP soon too!!!
Let me know if you would like to join our list! :D
xxx
Thanks Jo :) I'm hoping in joining this thread Murphy's law comes to play and I don't stay more than a few days, if AF shows I'd love to be on the list :)
I hope so for you little_mrs!!! It's funny isn't it... Most people curse AF, yet we beg for it to arrive!!!
Cheers Jo. Don't stress yourself out sending the stuff, just when you get a chance!
Afm I'm cd 55 !! What the hell! I can't believe it's this long. Im normally anywhere from 27 - 38 give or take but 55. It's ridiculous. I don't think ive ever wished for my period to come more than now! I guess it's not going to make a difference really. We won't be doing anything until our app on 22 nd with fs and everyone else. Full day of app's.
Me and my hubby have talked and don't think it will be worth starting our first cycle until next year! Firstly due to Xmas and that busy, already stress full time of the year and secondly,
Cost wise! Our fs explained that if we were to do a cycle this year and not be successful we will have to start all over again next year money wise with the Medicare rebates and stuff coz it goes on calendar years! So we would be flensing alot of money on the first cycle then be back to the start in January on the Medicare thresh hold! Who knows....
Also what's amp stand for?
I don't think amp means anything.... I *think*... it's just when people write & or @ or something and it comes up weird.... that's all I've been able to figure out anyway!! (it bugs the beegeesus out of me though!!! :lol:)
Welcome little_mrs you are welcome in here... if there's not much happening over there, it's cause everyone ended up moving in here....lol... (sadly....)
There are WAYYYYYY too many of us in here to keep track of now, so I am not going to try and do personals, it's just too hard to try and keep up!!!
so... anyway... I am just plodding along... glad to have had a month off, but wishing I was on the bandwagon now!!! DH has been away this weekend, and I am hoping I did not O, I think it's coming though... (it's always hard to tell, and I just BD every 2nd day in the vague weird hope of some miraculous conception)...
the metformin is making me a bit lightheaded I think... i have had the crappest food weekend too :redface: totally my own fault..... but anyway... DH gets home tomorrow, so.... hopefully I can feel more on top of things soon.
this time last year I was finding out my first IVF cycle didn't work..... I never imagined I'd be here 12 months down the track.... I hate LTTTC.... it sucks.... :(
:grouphug: for all of us... it's not fair.....
....she stamps her feet in disgust....
Hi myturn! :) I saw you requested me as a friend but it won't allow me to accept it... :(
On a positive note, I have finally made over 50 posts!!! Yay!!!
Nic- shout out if you want to be added to the list as well ok!!!

OMG - I did my first jab this morning - well DH did anyway! I have had a phobia of needles for as long as I can remember. You would think being 32 I would be over it by now. I've been so good this year with 2 laparoscopy's, 6 months of zoladex injections and I don't know how many blood tests and then this morning I cried like a little kid when it came to giving myself a jab. I completely worked myself up for nothing though - It didn't hurt (mind you I numbed the area with ice first) but I just couldn't do it myself - had to get DH to do it for me. I'm hoping now that the first one is over it'll be easier from now on.
i was exactly the same with my first injection, faye. cried and carried on, i think i just panicked. i wouldnt even let dh near me & ended up having to go down to the local gp and get them to do it. i am (or was) a needle phobe too. after 2 years & 5 stim cycles, i still cant do my jabs myself, although i have learnt to let dh do them for me now... ;)
glad your first one is over, and dont worry about not doing them yourself - its just not normal to put a sharp, foreign object in to yourself, i cant even watch let alone do them myself. :)
I think there's still a glitch in the system at the moment... if you go to my profile and request to be a friend as well, then it should 'make it happen'.
:)
Faye :hug: - it gets easier.... although some of the jabs are different, so while I'm good with the puregon, if I have to do something else I get a bit worked up... try to use my rational thinking and relax myself, and usually I get there okay...! The first time my nurse made me do a fake on in the office with them... DH and two nurses watching on...... pressure!!
Faye, it gets to the point where you dont even think about it.
I reckon I could actually give myself a blood test by now ;)
