Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception October 2014

[juniper76]

Miss.B, it's still early days, to I wouldn't worry count yourself out based on symptoms just yet...

Razzberry, sorry to hear the clomid isn't working as well as hoped. FX that follie has a perfect egg and you get a Christmas BFP!

Afm, I had a dream at 3dpo that I was 9dpo and AF was starting, so clearly I don't have high hopes for this cycle if I'm even dreaming that it won't work... Realistically, it was poorly timed on almost every front - the trigger was done after my E2 started dropping (so the egg was probably past its "best before") and doing trigger 45 hours before IUI isn't ideal (in my opinion) either. The only thing that went well was DH's sample stats, but that's not going to help if the egg was no good. I'm just hoping AF will be kind and her visit will be short so she'll be gone before Christmas...

[Jane :)]

Im spotting. Have taken another pessary in an attempt to convince the little one to stick around. Feeling anxious.

[CatyO]

Good luck Razzberry, fx that follie has the golden egg

Miss.B l didnt have any symptom until 5dp5dt, l think if l had had any symptom before, it would be trigger related or Pregnyl.

Juniper - l really hope you are wrong and the eggie was good and gives you a nice surprise xx

Jane - l have had some beige-brownish discharge on and off since sunday night, but the nurse said that is old blood. I havent had much though, it's been only a few times when i wipe, nothing n the pad. I had it twice today, once yesterday. I hope the nurse is right and is only old blood and goes away soon, so l can relax. I will be kmfx for you too

Does anyone know what are the normal levels of estrogen and progesterone l should have at this stage?

I hope everyone is travelling well xx

Jane, it's most likely old blood that the body is getting rid of. Hope it eases up for you, and it eases your anxiety. Early pg can be stressful. Big hugs.

Juniper, thanks for your reassurance. I hope we both get our Christmas miracles. You never know.

Caty, thanks Hun. I'm not sure what the levels should be, but try not to look into it too much, it might stress you out unnecessarily. The levels can vary so much for each person. Hang in there!

Razzberry, good luck with this cycle Hun, hope you don't have to do any of the other things.

AFM, nothing new, just trying to get over this silly cold. Started to feel sick yesterday, and I had DS's kinder concert yesterday so was running around like a mad chook making the party food and what not, so haven't really rested. The time is draaaaaaaging, but the desire to test is not there. Thank goodness! Lol.

[Jane :)]

CatyO my clinic says they look for btw 100 and 109 at the first bt and about 200 two weeks later at the next bt.

No more spotting today so fingers crossed its all ok.

Stalking you all and hoping that you get your bfps soon.

[hopeful mum]

Hi ladies. Just completed my 5th round of ivf, negative result. Only one frozen embryo, from 2 cycles sgo which was fantastic to achieve. First time that I had massive bleeding about day 7 after transfer. Don't know if I should have a break, as my positive attitude is diminishing quickly with every 'failed' cycle. Because of my age, 43, I don't want to prepare for a frozen cycle, just to have the embryo die and miss out on the chance of collecting at least a couple of more eggs.

[Jane :)]

Hi hopeful mum, sorry to hear of your bfn. Ivf is a tough journey. Do you have a good fs you can talk through your options? Personally I think Id be tempted to do another full collection. Wishing you all the best whatever you decide.

[1 more please]

Hi hopeful mum, sorry to hear about your journey so far wishing you a very short stay. I would be tempted like Jane to do another full collection
Good Luck xxx

Miss B I'm thinking of you, what's your symptoms? How are you feeling? xxxx

[Miss.B]

Thanks for thinking of me 1 more please . Not many symptoms here, very slight cramping today, kind of like AF is coming in the next few days. I can get crampy up to a week before AF, so dunno.

Hopeful mum, I'm sorry about your cycle. I'm 44, so I hear you on the age front, but don't feel that because you're 43 you won't give your frozen embryo a fair go. I've found frozen transfers less stressful on the body, and in fact I have a 4.5 year old DS who came from a frozen embryo. Good luck in your future TTC journey. There is also older women TTC thread, you can always chat to the ladies in there (me included) who are a bit older than the average lady in here.

[1 more please]

Miss B when is your BT?

[Miss.B]

It's next Friday hun, still so far away!!!! I keep having pinching pains on my left side mainly, but that's where I had my fibroid taken out a few years ago and I have scar tissue there. Also, I am so constipated (sorry for TMI), I am already drinking so much water. I got some prune juice today

[Razzberry]

Miss B - what you described was one of my first symptoms I was pregnant with DD1!

[Miss.B]

Oh Razzberry, I would love the same outcome as you, thanks for sharing

[Pholi]

I am cd 10 (Sunday) please. We're having a 'natural' FET cycle, which apparently still involves triggering ovulation. My cd8 BT indicated that estrogen was rising slowly, so atm we're on track for a transfer somewhere round Christmas Day!

[Miss.B]

That's great news Pholi, good luck hun!!
