Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Caty, how's it going? We're the equivalent of 10dpo now. Are you going to test? What day is your BT scheduled for.
I have no symptoms apart from fatigue, but that came and went anyway. I've never been into posts, but my BT isn't until Wednesday, which is 16dpo, and that seems a loooong way away when I know some test sticks would give a pretty clear answer already! And I have one left in the cupboard from a few years ago. Maybe an FMU on Monday. Maybe.

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Hi Pholi, no symptoms here either... I cant test because i had a pregnyl shot 2 days ago, so lm here biting my nails. My blood test is not until next thursday (17dpo), yes, seems so long away, i think pregnyl could still give me a false positive on Monday? I will see if I get to test on Tuesday, in case l don't get af.
Make sure the hpt has not expired ;)

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Thanks so much, juniper. I'll buy some just in case. Mum offered me some of hers awhile ago (she hasn't had a period since April) and I said "nah, I don't use those ones" lol oh well.
I am feeling a bit nervous. I'm hoping Ive taken enough time off (due back at work the Thursday after) but it shouldn't be a problem if I need more time. I had two weeks off for my gall bladder two years ago. Probably could have survived with just one though.
Good luck Pholi and CatyO. I hope you get your bfps :)

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Im freaking out. So nervous. Starting my cycle next sun. Have been madly finishing all the paperwork. Just have to pick up my meds this week and we are good to go. Am already invested in this cycle and terrified of whether ill cope with it all. I know there is no other choice. Just nervous. Need to remind myself that I am stronger than I think I am. Thanks for lettibg me vent.

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Next Sunday? How do you know that's when your period is going to come? But good luck! It's so stressful, sometimes. I've found every cycle has been different, so far.
I'm 8 days post 5d tf now... 13 dpo. Period is due tomorrow. I had a few mild little niggles, literally for 5 minutes this morning, that felt like premenstrual cramps, but then it went away. Of course, the progesterone can keep AF away, so no period isn't really a sign of anything. I'm so much less stressed at this stage, in this cycle, knowing that I have 2 frosties ready to go, so if it's a bfn, at least I don't have to go through egg collection again yet.

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
BFN here :(
I feel defeated, so tired of ttc, l just want a strong second damn line! And what l get? The faintest line to show me that Pregnyl is still in my sistem (6 days later). I tested yesterday and the frer line was a little bit darker than today and clearblue said Pregnant 1-2 (yesterday), but with the line on frer going lighter today l know its just the pregnyl, so l didn't bother with the digi today. I am just waiting for af now to start ivf again.
Pholi - some people (like me:) ) know exactly when we are going to get af when we are not doing ivf. In my case i get it exactly 14 days after l ovulate. DH laughs when for example he wants to go swimming and l say "ok we can go on sunday, but in the morning, because after 2 pm l will get my period", and at 3 pm af is here ;)

I guess my cycle isn't quite so predictable as some peoples!
I haven't tested yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Pholi. Im currently on the pill for my endometriosis. So af is much easier to predict. It will either be sat or sun. Naturally though my cycles are all over the place.
CatyO im so sorry to hear of your bfn. That sucks big time!

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
We seem to be getting so few BFPs lately and so many BFNs. I hope that changes soon, ladies. :grouphug:
Afm, I thought I had started AF early (2am) yesterday, but then had nothing much the rest of the day and only some light bleeding today, so I'm not sure if I'm day 2 or not. But, either way, with the 9 days of spotting and random bleeding beforehand, I'm up to day 11 of this crap and hoping it ends soon...
-
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Gosh that doesn't sound like fun at all, juniper! I hope it sorts itself out soon.
Doctor rang earlier. They had to take the left tube. The right one was looking good though. They also found endometriosis which they cleaned up for me. I guess that explains why I've had such awful period pains for the last almost 20 years! I felt really good yesterday after I got home but last night the pain in my shoulder and diaphragm really played up on me. I hardly slept at all. I'm seeing the GP later today as pandadol just isn't cutting it. Emotionally I'm feeling ok and glad to have some answers. The clinic will send me a follow up appt but until then we're just going to take it easy and keep trying naturally next cycle.
-
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Thanks girls. We are totally due for some bfps. I hope that's you, Razzberry.
That sucks, Juniper. :/
My FS rang me yesterday after the bfn was confirmed with a BT. Have to take the next month off, then we'll do a natural FET cycle in December. Could you put me down as waiting for that, please Juniper?
If the next embryo becomes a take home baby, it'll be due right in DS's birthday. Not ideal, but it doesn't really matter, I just want my next baby.
-
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Sorry to the girls who have had BFN's lately.
I am still here reading and following.
No idea when my next IVF cycle might be, we are broke!
Debating on when to call it quits.
Anyone have any info re: IVF through the public system? I suppose they don't do PGD though? GAH!

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Thanks juniper. I got some tramadol. I also saw a physio and I've been putting cold packs on my shoulder. I'm feeling pretty good atm. Just hope it doesn't all turn upside down again when I go to bed tonight. After all that worry about buying pads and I haven't had any bleeding at all lol!

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
Spoons, if the shoulder pain is gas pain, I've always used heat rather than cold. Also, moving is supposed to help the gas dissipate. Sorry, I meant to mention that yesterday but was interrupted by work and (an hour later) couldn't remember what I was going to write so just hit the post button...

Ladies I desperately need some advise cause I have absolutely no one to talk to about this. I have the opportunity to have a FET at the very end of December (if I can lose some weight) I would have 1 transferred or should I just wait till after my operation in February and transfer 2 in May? Or I could have 1 transferred in December and if that does not work I could have another transferred in May, I have just always felt transferring 2 is better but in saying that I got a bfn when I did transfer 2. Or I could transfer 2 in December and that will be the end of my ttc. Please Please I really really need some advice on what you all think I'm so utterly confused:-( PLEASE HELP I NEED ADVISE!!!!!

Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014
1MP- What is the op for? Will it improve your chances of getting/staying pregnant? If so id be tempted to save at least one embie for next year. In terms of transfering 1 vs 2. I have only ever done one at a time but that's only cos its the standatd process at my clinic. I have heard the 2 transferer at once can increase success rate but I have no idea if that is actually fact or rumour.
