Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception - October 2008

Woo hoo! Congrats Bel! Awesome news! On one hand I am insanely jealous that your TWW is over early but I'm really very happy for you!

Congrats also to Brooke on her BFP!

I must admit I'm finding it hard to keep up with everyone, but I want to thank you all for sharing your stories and upates - I find it interesting and encouraging.

AFM, I'm now two weeks post EPU and no AF, though apparently crinone can supress AF. I have no symptoms to speak of and I'm still not feeling positive about it. DH insists that we can't test early - DOH!

All the best to you all!

Wow, huge congrats to Bel and Brooke. Bel, my god 11.5kg!!!!!!!! That must be soooo uncomfortable. Hope you feel better soon.

Ruth, how frustrating, but good luck :goodluck:

On tra_k - Congrats on your transfer and some good snowbubs!!! As for your nosy friend, I'm not really sure. My instinct would be to tell her that she hasn't been told because it is a private matter that can be incredibly emotional and you would rather tell people in hind sight......the less people that know (who don't understand) the better. I've learned that form this cycle. My parents in law keep ringing up and telling me how dissapointed they are that we 'failed'. Aaarrrggghhhhh :wall:

Smithy and WLB - good luck for your EPU's :goodluck:

Paula - sticky vibes to you :stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl:

Jodie, Mumofsix, LNB, Cuddlepie, Mels, Sarah, MrsM, Wouldluvabubba, and anyone I have missed, all the best to you we all need to stick together.

AFM: Back to taking temp etc, as least it's familiar! Will see doc next week. I have a monster essay due on Monday so very busy getting that done.

bel - congrats, that is very inspiring. i hope you're back to feeling yourself again soon.

afm - disappointment today that i can't go ahead with a FET this month :cry: FS says my system needs a rest. so more waiting and counting, waiting and counting...damn, this is such a rollercoaster. i don't expect i'll be ready for my FET now until early December based on my cycles... I'll be praying for a Christmas BFP.

Hope you're all doing well.
Mels

Bel, congrats.

Happy Weekend Everyone -

JodieC65 - fingers crossed for NO AF for you

On Tra K - see you in the TWW

Ruth08 - sending lots of sticky vibes to you for a BFP next week

Smithy and WLB - hope those follies are growing big and strong for you

Neptune - it seems like a never ending process sometimes doesn't it? Good luck for next week.

Mels77 - sorry to hear your FET was put off for this month. Stay positive and take care.

AFM - still no AF !!! Slight spotting again today, the same as the last 2 days, it doesn't seem to be getting any stronger and AF is not here so very happy about that. Will keep :pray::pray::pray::pray::pray: for no AF .

Take care everyone,
LNB

__________________

Bel what wonderful news. Congratulations. Hope he OHSS eases up and cant wait to hear if you have 1 or 2 bubs growing in there. Best of luck.

Mels77 sorry to hear you cant do your FET just yet. Who knows, Santa could be bringing you a BFP in time for Christmas. Hang in there and give your body a much deserved break.

Jodie i have wathced the whole of Seasons 1 & 2 of Sex and The City.. hehe still have a few seasons to go but ill leave those for Christmas time when i have nothing to do (i get two weeks off work)

Rachel good luck in your TWW. I too hate it when people are nosy. Thankfully i have only been in that position with some colleagues but i denied it. I feel its none of their business.

Ruth hang in there. When is your testing day?

LNB fingers crossed AF stays away :pray:

Smithy woohoo on being all set and ready to lay those eggs. Hope the next few days go past nice and quickly for you.

As for me, well i got my update today and all 10 fertilised eggs have formed into beautiful embryos :dance: Another update tomorrow then in for ET on Monday.

Have a wonderful weekend ladies.

WAY TO GO PAULA :dance:

Hello ladies,

What can I say? I have had a tough week and so too have so many of you. I am trying acupuncture,yoga and meditation...don't really buy it but anything is worth a try right?

Paula - Thanks babe. We can be happy for all the ladies with the pregnant bellies and we can be even more happy for each other when it happens for us (and it WILL!!) Good luck. Thank you so much for your response. I feel so much better knowing my reaction was normal.


mel77 and JBM- Thank you for your kind words. I have spent many a day at work crying in the toilet, calling my mum, asking why isn't it me......This pregnancy of my friend at work has made me even more determined. Do you ever feel that it is so amazing how strong we women are, picking ourselves up off the toilet floor time and time again? I am constantly inspired by the strength of the women in this forum.:goodluck: to both of you. JBM... a special thanks for saying I am not mean...hubby thinks I am and it is so nice to speak to girls who understand.

More personal replies....

Possums - I am truly sorry. I am sure you will get back up on the horse . I have read your posts for some time and you have made me feel so much more positive so I am sure you know your time is coming soon. I wish you so much luck:goodluck: January is really not very far away. Rest up, have fun in the meantime and the great news will be here soon.

Babytruj- so have you booked your lap yet? I really cannot explain why, but I feel the lap was my best move yet. It gave me more confidence (and hubby senses it let me tell you!!) Best of luck honey...let me know how you go with the lap...


Bel - congrats!!! Rest up and milk it for all it's worth!!!

Best wishes to all the lovely ladies here....:grouphug:

Best wishes ladies.....

tell her that she hasn't been told because it is a private matter that can be incredibly emotional and you would rather tell people in hind sight

Neptune, your advice is spot on. I think I'll memorise that line!! Sorry that you have to deal with your in-laws' disappointment too (as if you don't have enough on your plate!!). My Mum & sis are a bit TOO excited about this first cycle I think so I hope they're not too disappointed if it doesn't work. I've already done the excited thing for the "first" clomid cycle and the "first" IUI etc. so I'm a bit over the excitement and just in it for the long haul!!
Smithy - your numbers look really great, good luck for EPU on Tuesday
Paula - thanks for your words, hope the news on your embies tomorrow is all good
Mels77 - bummer about not being able to do FET this cycle, noone warns you about all the "waiting" and months off do they? My idea of possible time line just keeps getting thrown out the window!!
Ruth08 - you must be going really crazy right about now ... all the best :SAAF:
shelbee, LNB, babytruj - Hi to you all :D

AFM - what ... only one day has passed since my last post? seems like an eon ... ?? :2ww:

Hi on tra_k,


Thanks for the hello.... I know what you mean about the family being all too excited and those nosey people. My family just don't get that it may not work. They were convinced the IUIs worked as I was soooooooooooo bloated. Then I had the lap 2 weeks ago and again they thought the bloat was a great sign.!!???The nurse at IVF Australia told me that although it is hard, just tell them you are taking a few months off TTC . (haven't tried that myself yet)

Neptune - my parents tell me they are "So" disappointed so I sympathise. I have become immune to their comments as they are coming from a good place, but they just don't understand and therefore say things the wrong way.

Best of luck to the both of you:goodluck:

hi to all in lttc.
well i am feeling a bit crappy, i am sure this hasn't worked again!! i am trying not to think the worst but all af signs are coming except bleeding. but i am checking for that. i so hope i am wrong.

i hope everyone is feeling better than me today. good luck jabbing, sniffing, growing eggies, having epu, et's and all those in tww,

i'll keep you informed if that horrible whitch arrives, i hate her so much, i really do hate her !!!

think happy thoughts, i'm trying to do this.

Janet its tough time I know...:hug: but hang in there 1 November is not long to go...:noaf:

Hi all,
Just popped in and glad to see some inspirational BFPs in here.
Having a bad day. Just found out yet another friend is pg. Had the typical reaction of feeling sorry for myself (god I hate that but just can't help it) and actually got teary this time. Luckily found out via email (she's o/s) and not face-to-face. Was surprised how much it upset me to be honest. She doesn't know about our situation. Am not going to reply to her email until I can send a happy positive reply and stop being selfish and self-pitying.

It was our 4th wedding anniversary this week. I really thought we'd have a bub by now. Anyway we're still in no-man's-land, waiting for our 1st ivf in Jan. Only a little over 2 months to wait now. Must think positive!

Goodluck to all in the 2WW!!

Happy Saturday Ladies,

So many of us, I wrote a lovely long reply to everyone and it dissapeared !! Ahhhh
I am thinking of everyone and know what stages you are all at -

Im on my last puregon and a trigger on Sunday, drug free Monday and EPU on Tuesday (our FS is going to do a scan first as I had that little scare with a raising LH) but the new injection seems to have it at bay)

Does your FS do a scan before you go under anasthetic (spelling ?) to make sure your follies are ready to go ?? I became a little nervous when the nurse told me FS wants to do a scan before EPU ? Is that normal ?

Thanks

Hope all you ladies are having a lovely weekend.

Cuddlepie Hope everything stays on track for a mid november cycle for you.

Babytruj Hope TWW is going ok

Shelbee Know the feeling of "Why them and not me?" all we can do is to hang in there and hope our time comes soon.

Mrs M Good luck with whatever stage you are up to

JBM Praying AF stays away for you :SAAF:

Possums So Sorry for your loss know that we are all here for you :grouphug:

Kelly D Sorry about BFN hope this next cycle ends with a better result

Curlygirl Good luck with TWW I found that if I do Pregnyl fast it tends to hurt a lot so I do it slower it don't hurt so much

Brooke 2550 and Bel CONGRATULATIONS :clap::hooray::cheer: Hope the next 9 months are happy and healthy

Kasam :welcome: good luck with this cycle

LNB Hope spotting is a good sign like bub snuggling in.

Neptune Good luck with natural cycle

Mrs M Good luck with BTs

JodieC65 Hope AF stays away for you :SAAF:

On Tra_k Good luck with TWW

Ruth 08 Hope AF stays away for you :SAAF:

Mels 77 Sorry you have to wait hopefully you will have more luck with next FET cycle

Smithy Good luck with EPU

Paula Great news about Embryos Good luck with ET

Shelbee Hang in there we will all get our longed for BFP's soon

Mrs P Jan not that far away now

Wouldloveabubba Good luck with EPU

AFM Looks like AF is finally going away BT on Mon hope to get good results from that. Wishing everyone good luck with whatever stage you are up to hope to see some more BFPs soon.

WOULDLOVEABUBBA-
oh my god hun we are at exactlly the same stage can you believe it lol
we will have to think of each other on tuesday morning and ill know just what your going through it will prob make me laugh thinking of us both having epu --luv it:dance:

cuddlepie: thanks for your encouragement
mrsP: hugs to you
luvabub: good luck with EPU, hope it goes well
wishbaby: hope bt gives good results
smithy: good luck with your EPU and twins !:crossfingers:

afm: i am just having one of those days today !! i have had a bit of brown spotting so i did a test, i know it's early but tomorrow would be day 28 and i am usually really regular. anyway you'd think if there was a chance it would show up on a test 1 day before af was due ?????????:wall:

well it was BFN and now i feel even crappier and dh has had a chat with me and said he's not doing it again and if i don't get BFP with one of our 3 embies left then " TOO BAD" he said i've had the chance and thats it. it's too stressfull for him. what the heck !!!!!!

i'm the one who's doing all the jabbing and has to do the TWW and go thru the heartache of IVF.

sorry for this i just feel so empty and now i've been all teary.

keep smiling ;)

JBM - I am so sorry that you have having one of those days sweetie. I feel for you and know just how insensitive our DH/DP's can be at times. They can be wonderful too, but sometimes they are just so *** - well perhaps I shouldn't really say that word in here IYKWIM. I will still keep hoping for you and send you lots of love and a :hug:

Take care and dry those tears, otherwise you will have us all crying along with you.

On a me note - my AF showed up this morning, so I kinda feel like crying (and screaming) also.

JodieC65, i'm so sorry hun..you deserve a good cry. hope you are feeling better soon

JBM, sorry to hear about what happened. i most men are just not good in handling all the stress of ttc-ing, that's why it becomes OUR job! sending you a big :hug:

Wishingbaby, thanks for the tip. dh said so, but i insisted he did it quickly so i thought i didn't have to suffer too long. but i guess i should've listened to him :D

wouldloveabubba, good luck for EPU, hope you have a good number of follies!

Mrs P, we're in this together. my younger sister fell pg without even trying and i got the news right after fs told me IVF might be our only chance! hope you're feeling better soon

take care everyone and best of luck for us all!

Hi Ladies -

21 - hope you are okay, haven't seen you post in a while. Thinking of you.

Smithy - your numbers look great! Good luck for EPU on Tuesday, will be thinking of you as I have my BT.

WLB - thinking of you for EPU on Tuesday. I haven't had a scan before EPU, it might be just to check that the timing is right.

Paula - great news on your eggs, fingers crossed for ET on Monday

On-Trak - see you in the TWW

JBM - sorry to hear you had such a rough day, big hugs to you.

JodieC65 - I hate that witch AF for showing up for you today. Take care of yourself.

MrsP - the waiting is the worst, but hopefully Jan will be here soon enough

Everyone else - sending lots of good thoughts to you wherever you may be in your cycle.

AFM - no spotting or cramping today and best of all NO AF! 3 sleeps until BT and :pray::pray::pray::pray::pray::pray::pray: that AF stays away.

Take care,
LNB

So sorry Jodie. It is a hard road.. I believe you will get your dream one day though which would make the road we've taken pale in comparison... Hang in there :grouphug:

JBM, we are thinking of you. Has AF arrive? Thinking of you :grouphug:

Hi girls-
I hope this is the right place to post - it's taken me ages to find this part of BB. I haven't been posting long on BB, but have been lurking around. I feel like I know some of you already, even though I haven't been part of your stories.

A bit about me:
I am 29 and DH is 31 and we have been TTC#1 since May 2004. We saw a FS in September who diagnosed me with Endometriosis, did the laproscopic surgery, and has now got us starting IVF (today is day 2 - one nasal spray down). The reason we had to wait to see an FS was because we've been living in the States for 6 years, and only moved back in December 07. Can I just mention how lucky we are to be going through IVF in Australia - in Seattle it cost $14,000+/cycle with no rebates or government assistance. That just blows my mind. Anyway, without fertility support we had to wait till we came home.

After much talking, thinking, crying, we are so excited to be starting this journey together. We have only told our parents and my siblings, and I have told my boss and one co-worker who went through IVF two years ago (and is now pregnant naturally with #2!). At this point I think the most difficult thing for me will be to not worry, stay calm and relaxed, and let things happen. I am a planner and a worrier, but I understand that that's not the way to get through IVF and come out with a BFP. We are moving in 2 weeks to a house which is beautiful, and we are hoping that it will be a place where we can relax, spend time with each other and close friends and family, and conceive. I am also starting yoga in 2 weeks.

So basically I just wanted to pop in and say hi. It's been so nice to have the support of the BB girls in other areas that I've posted, and am hoping my support will help others too.

My husband's friend's wife (notice I didn't say a friend of mine!) has been pretty horrible and insensitive to me during the past 4.5 years of TTC (knowing that we were TTC, she'd say things like "I don't know what's wrong with these people who can't get pregnant, what are they doing wrong, I don't understand it"... TO MY FACE!!), and has since conceived herself and is now pg with #2 (and is no less insensitive). I have to cut myself off from her a bit as we start IVF. She upsets me and makes me too angry, and I can't surround myself with people like that at the moment. Another friend of mine has just been through her own medical journey (not TTC related), and said to me yesterday that she and her husband entered a journey together, and she didn't want or expect to be the sam person when she came out of it. She said that while the road was tough, there are so many positive things that she and her husband learned about each other and about life together, and they value being able to go through the journey together, and appreciate who they've become at the end. Thinking about that helps me to be strong and positive!

Anyway, back to today - the laundry still has to be done.

Thinking of you girls and hoping for BFPs for all of us!

Gee that was a long post - sorry for the ramble!!!

Welcome bub4me. I hope your journey will be a short one.. keep us posted on your journey as other's stories helps us go through ours with some comfort.

thanks guys for all your support and well wishes but af has arrived and i did a test and got a BFN!!!!!!!!

i feel so sad.

i'm glad i've got you guys though.

Hi All, after our first FS appt in may this year we are finally strarting our first ICSI cycle. Today is CD 1, we are doing an antagonist cycle, so I start injecting tomorrow. Am nervous and excited! This thread seemed to be the best place to post re going through first IVF cycle, thanks

hiya girls
this may seem strange but i need to ask in regards to the u/s do i need to get it done if you have had your tubes cliped?
goodluck smithy everything is :crossfingers: for you honey
yay for brooke getting a :bfp:
sarahxxx

Hi everyone...I am just lurking around still and popping in to wish you all well with your cycles....hope things are on track for you

bub4me- welcome! You will find this a helpful and supportive place to be

JBM- so sorry sweetie for the hard time you are having, plus our DHs can handle and express things so differently to us and can sometimes be so blunt/direct it really does hurt. They process/experience things so differently to us. I really hope you are doing OK xx

Hi Everyone -

Smithy and WLB - good luck for Tuesday - wishing you 10+ follies for great embie making

WishingBaby - good luck for your BT on Monday

Curlygirl, Jodie65, Shelbee& Cuddlepie - hope you are all doing okay

Bub4Me , DrGirl72 - welcome! Good luck with your journey. The ladies in the forum and fantastic support and knowledge as well. It is a great place for support and friendship.

Paula - good luck with your ET , sending you lots of sticky vibes

Everyone else - good thoughts for you in sniffing, jabbing, popping

AFM - No AF or spotting and 2 sleeps till BT with lots of :pray::pray::pray::pray::pray::pray:

MrsP happy anniversary. I too have my anniversary, 3rd, coming up and i thought we would have had a bub by now. Oh well. All in good time.

Wouldloveabubba not sure about scan before EPU but it cant hurt. Best of luck and i hope you get lots of mature eggies.

wishingbaby you did a great job with personals...haha Well done and best of luck with your blood test on Monday.

JBM and Jodie so sorry to hear abour your BFN's :comfort:

LNB not long now :crossfingers: that you have some great news for us in a couple of days.

Smithy EPU is now just around the corner. Enjoy your time in Sydney. Its going to be hot here tomorrow so make the most of it. Best of luck, hope you get a great number of eggies.

Bub4me & DrGirl72 welcome and all the best with your cycles. Look forward to hearing your stories.

To everyone else, hope you have had a wonderful weekend and good luck with whichever part of this crazy journey you are all on.

I have my ET booked in for 9am tomorrow. I was told yesterday that our of the 10 embies, 7 were still looking strong however 3 had slowed down. I am just praying like crazy that i get some to freeze and a super dooper one to transfer.

Good evening ladies,

Its 11pm and I have just had my final "trigger ovidrel " - at this point I have done all I can and now it's up to the FS to do her part, I pray it goes smoothly at the scan b4 the epu, I am not allowing myself to get excited until I hear those words - prep her for theatre ... Please ovaries be good to me

JBM: I read your post yesterday and have been thinking about you and DH comments to you, and how sad that must of made you feel, and I hope since then he has come and given you a big cuddle and you have spoken some more, DH/DP can be wonderfull caring creatures, yet sometimes they seem like they are from a completely different planet, they dont have the coping mechanisim's we do, sometimes I keep some worries to myself about this TTC journey, I dont want to over dose him with too much info, because although I live with a beautiful man who loves me and would do anything for me, it can just become too much for them, I am not speaking of course about all DH/DP, but of my friends we find this to be true at times, give him some time, he might come round, your having a rough time right now, it can only get better xx

Paula : Good luck for tommorow - I wonder if you will get much sleep tonight

Welcome Bub4me & DrGirl72 - Looking forward to getting to know you

21ttc - where are you - I hope you are going ok

ontrak - sticky vibes for you

LNB - fingers crossed for you

And to all the other ladies - so many to mention ( I need to get a printer and print the reply's so I can send more personals ) thinking of you and your journey

Have a lovely week ahead, and thank you so much for your best wishes for Tuesday, you are all so supportive :grouphug:

Bub4Me - welcome and thanks for sharing your story. You must be so excited to finally be starting IVF after so long TTC!
DrGirl72 - welcome to you too

You have come to the right place, there are plenty of wonderful people in here (a bit hard to keep track of at times); I'm more than halfway through my 1st IVF cycle and there are other "first-timers" in here too

Busy day Monday ... Paula - good luck with your ET tomorrow and see you in the :2ww:; wishingbaby - good luck with your BT tomorrow ... hope the outcome brings you what you want for this cycle
Tuesday is looking like a big day too - good luck to all those who have momentous events on Tues ... smithy & wouldloveabubba - hope you bag plenty of eggs in your EPU; LNB - good luck for your BT
JBM, Jodie - sorry to hear that this wasn't 'your' cycle ... :comfort:
curlygirl - hope your tww is going OK, keeping busy ... :D
MrsM - I'm not sure because my story was different, but I think they might still want to do the U/S to make sure everything else looks good ... I hope someone else who's had tubes clipped can provide you with a better answer than that???
Ruth08 - you poor thing, you have such a long wait ... is that just the way your clinic does it? are you on any medication still for this cycle? :SAAF:
Possums, MrsP, Kahlan, Cuddlepie, babytruj, shelbee, KellyD, Neptune, Mels77 - hi

thanks so much guys, as you have notices my mood has moved from depressed to sad, so a step in the right direction.

luvabub: thank you so much for your loving words, i know men are different, "they're from mars" after all and i think when dh is tired we all feel it. good luck for your epu, not long to go. make sure not to do anything afterwards, as you feel ok but it will hit you later on. i felt so tired and drained of energy. i'll be thinking of you. :goodluck:

rachel: thanks so much for your support also and everything, good luck for you too.

bub4me: welcome to this crazy club?, well maybe thats just me? anyway hope you're not here long and you get that BFP very soon, good luck. :thumbsup:

smithy: not long to epu :fertilise: hope all goes well for you. good luck

hey everyone else: hi to you too.

afm: well i am feeling better today and making plans with dh for next FET. i think he says a lot of stuff when he is tired and i know he loves me lots. and at the end of the day i know we will have a baby. i have to have hope.
i will be calling the clinic today and letting them know and i want to see if i can do another FET this month.

Hi guys,

This is going to be a long post.

thanks guys for all your support and well wishes but af has arrived and i did a test and got a BFN!!!!!!!!

---

I am sorry JBM. I was told men have their own way of coping (or suffering). Throughout our journey, mine hadn't said much but yesterday out of the blue he said "sorry". I asked him what for and he said that it was because of him I couldn't be a mother as I hoped. I told him not to be absurd and that when we have our little child and when that child misbehaves we will curse the day we had so desperately wanted "him" or "her".

Welcome DrGirl. There are those of us who have been on this road for quite some time now so if you have any questions, I am sure these lovely ladies are more than willing to help.

this may seem strange but i need to ask in regards to the u/s do i need to get it done if you have had your tubes cliped?

Hi Sarah. I think you will still need to check out your uterus just to make sure IVF is the right way for you. Good luck

MrsP happy anniversary. I too have my anniversary, 3rd, coming up and i thought we would have had a bub by now. Oh well. All in good time.

Possums, MrsP, Kahlan, Cuddlepie, babytruj, shelbee, KellyD, Neptune, Mels77 - hi

How are you going? This is the best time to get DH to do things for us while we are in the TWW. My DH cooks during this time, so that I can get all the rest I need (truth be told I don't need to rest be it makes him feel he's doing something so I let him).

To everyone else, hi and hope you well. Thinking of you all.

Hi everyone...there are so many in here now it's hard to keep track. Wishing you all the best on this journey....wherever you are up to

JBM- glad you are feeling better...a bit better anyway.... my DH has sometimes reacted so differently from me I have felt pretty alone, but then we usually end up talking and sorting through it eventually...they really do handle things differently to us. I hope you can do a FET soon

Paula- hope ET went well!

wouldloveabubba- hope those ovaries produce lots of good eggs for you!

DrGirl- welcome and good luck...this is a supportive place with lots of good advice

LNB- good luckl! hope you are hanging in there OK


and to everyone else....sending you all the best xx

Hello ladies

Just wanted to come in here one last time and wish you all the very best with your cycles.

I had my ET this morning and now have a wonderful blasty on board. Find out tomorrow how many to freeze. So now im off to the TWW thread and hope that i have some great news to announce to all in just under two weeks time.

Take care!
