Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception - Sept 2007 #2

[Baby Bliss]

Oh god Megan thats such an obvious solution! Can I switch to night time taking now I have had 2 in the morning?! PLEEEEEEASE?! (Do I just slowly change it within the 12 hour time period perhaps?!)

[nic]

Megan, that's fantastic that you have 5 embies! Hope everything goes perfectly on Saturday for you.

Big hello to everyone, so sorry for my lack of personals. I have a nasty headache happening, even had to cancel my hair cut for this morning just wanted to check in on Megan's embies.
Will try to catch up with everyone over the weekend, have a great one

Megan - great news on the 5 embies!!!!! best of luck for the transfer...

[Megan]

Kell, I think it would be fine to change it (even if you do it gradually over a couple of days). It might be an idea to contact your nurse just to be on the safe side. But, hopefully this will solve your problem and you wont feel horrible for the rest of the time you're on it.
Thanks nic & Sonya.
Hope you're feeling better soon nic.

[Loula]

Congrats Megan and Sonya!!well done girls

Me- still lurking

Just a quick post from me - about to go crash after three very long days with appointments...

Feeling excited - only three days until I see my FS and get started on another FET cycle. Got my answers from Dr S - looks like I'm going to be on prednisone for a very long time, but at least I can have some confidence with the next pregnancy because of it.

I'm feeling really good about getting things underway again.

Megan - good luck for your transfer.
Nic - hope the headache eases off real soon.

Good night, everyone, sleep well.

Hi Everyone
Have been a bit quiet...been in a place of reflection...and have decided to cancel our ICSI cycle. Taking some time out to heal. Losing 3 babies this year is enough, can't take the chance of seeing that number increase...the pain is still too raw. I feel like I've had a huge weight lifted off my shoulders...time to sit back and smell the roses for a bit. And as DH said..."Now we can just try the old fashioned way"...lol...we live in hope!

Hi Ellie
Some time out could be just what you need. During this whole process I think we sometimes forget how much pressure this puts on us mentally and physically. Your body can only handle so much. And who knows the rest may do you some good and you may fall the old fashioned way. Good Luck Ellie
Well I had my day 21 appointment today thinking I would be starting my Synarel and I just got the call from the nurse saying I am about to ovulate and come back next Friday. I am totally confused!!! Could I be pregnant? We have been trying ourselves this month. But ovulation would still appear wouldn’t it?

Hope everyone is doing well.

Ellie, I really hope that your break helps you to heal after everything you have been through. Everything crossed for a natural conception while you're on your break!

Smithy, all the best for Tuesday. Hope you get a nice little haul of eggs.

I can't believe tomorrow is transfer. I have to get up at 6 to get to the clinic by 7.30. At least I have nothing on for the rest of the day so I can just come home and relax all day.
BG & Lou, I found out the Dr doing my transfer is your FS! I have never met him before, but I sure hope he's lucky!

[briggsy's girl]

Megan - woo hoo on transfer tomorrow - that's awesome hun. Mac is pretty good - he's got a great sense of humour that should put you at ease pretty early

here's hoping there is some massive good vibes for you this time around hun!

[Megan]

Thanks BG. I think you need someone with a sense of humour while you're there in your glory with the spotlight on you!
At this rate I will have met every FS associated with Monash.

[briggsy's girl]

hehehe - there are definitely days i'm glad i'm out here in the middle of nowhere - i've only ever had contact with Mac and the local clinic nurse - it's very calming!

Hi Everyone

Ellie, sweetie I hope you're doing ok xxx
I know how you feel - Sometimes its nice to stop for a bit and say to yourself - 'Hang on a sec, we're still two humans living life here!'.... Oh how easy it is to get caught in the nothing but TTC world ..... Have fun practicing the old fashioned way

Megan - A huge huge good luck for you tomorrow, will be thinking of you xxx
I just know everything will go great for you this time - have a wonderful day of relaxing afterwards.

Sonya - GL with the BT... But we all know nothing to worry about there!!!!

Smithy - Best of luck for trigger on Sun & EPU on Tuesday xxx

Nat - Heres hoping that you won't need that synarel... or anything else!!! Wouldn't it be wonderful if you were pg all on your own?! Miracles can happen - we've definately had them in here to prove it so xxx

BW - So glad to hear you're ready to go again - wow that was quick considering what you thought initially!!!!

To everyone else I've missed, a big hello!!!

Me - Feeling just horrible at the moment - I just don't have any energy at all, so so tired.
I did a bit more research on the lumps (from now I'm going to call it EN - Erythema Nodosum - Because lumps is just not nice!!!!) - and it turns out that they cause swelling in your legs and especially your feet - This would explain my limping over the last 2 days and my inability to get my left foot in my shoe properly
On top of that, it also says that it can make you extremely tired.... just fantastic!

This week has been really hard working with little people while being in pain from swelling and hardly able to keep my eyes open!!!!!!!
Enough whinging from me though, I've finished work a week early in the school term - My SIL and I are taking Luke & her two girls to the Gold Coast for a week on Sunday!
Heres hoping my leg improves so I can walk all day around Dreamworld & Australia Zoo!!!!!!

A week of no work will do me good though - I'm looking forward to it!

On CD 25 here - AF feels like shes upon me - We'll know soon enough!

Hope everyone is great xxx
