Lilmiss - I hope your lap goes well today hun and you get the answers you need..
Brooke - goodluck with your scan bt today - grow eggies grow!
Abbie - goodluck with your EPU tomorrow! Very exciting!
Bel - your on the injections YAY! This is the exciting part!
AFM - I am going to meet a Dr to get some acupunture done! I am really excited. I'll give anything a try to help it. I have also heard it can be quite relaxing. Also, he is an orthopedic (sp?) Dr aswell. I liked him right away - his name is Martin (same as my awesome daddy - and he has an English accent - smae as my daddy - all good signs I think!
I have been reading all your posts and seeing what everyone is up to but get so confused with all of us in here at the moment.
Good luck everyone who is jabbing, sniffing, pill popping or taking a rest.
AFM: 3 sleeps to go until my u/s to see if the lining is good for our FET transfer early next week. Have been on progynova since last friday and upped the dose yesterday.... Am suffering the major side effect of fatigue, can hardly keep my eyes open at the moment and am ready to crawl into bed at 7.30pm each night. Such a party animal . Hopefully I can get used to the medication cause if we get our awaited for BFP I will be on the meds for up to 10 weeks.
Good luck everyone and will be back on friday to up date our ETD (estimated transfer day).
Sorry that I have ben MIA - Crinone and I haven't been agreeing with eachother in regard to my pain threshold (Devil hormone says that I am a wimp and turns up the dial a bit more every day).
Haven't you all been busy chatting
I had my transfer yesterday and got a beautiful looking hatching balstie. FS said that it was really really good quality and she was very happy with it. It was moving about heaps which she said was also a very good sign. Scientist said that they were going to freeze 3 yesterday and thought that she would have another 3 or 4 to freeze today depending on how they went during the night so I am really happy about that as well.
Been a bit quiet since I first joined the thread a couple of weeks ago, but just wanted to pop on back in and say a big HELLO to you all and to thank you all for your welcome wishes.
Lilmiss - good luck today with your lap and hope that everything goes well
Hope that your EPU goes really really well for you tomorrow Abbie and also to you Brooke2550 for your EPU on Friday.
Neptune - hope that your EPU went well for you yesterday
KellyD - I've got my fingers crossed for you that your lining is good for a FET.
To everyone else just wanted to send you all a big with whatever stage you are at - sniffing, jabbing, waiting. Thinking of you all - keep on smiling gals.

Hi Gals..
Just a quick one from me.. My lap went well and i'm at home being pampered by DH and mt parents so i'm a very lucky girl.. The Doc removed a little bit of Endo and found some scarring on my left tube from a previous infection.. Everything else seemed to be in the right place and I was given some lovely snapshots of my internal organs.. I have my stitches out next Monday and we'll work out where to from there.. Don't want to start IVF until January so may go for OI or similar for the next couple of cycles.. I've definitely got a doctor with a sense of humour.. When he asked "any more questions?" I asked about DTD.. He suggested I wait until we got home.. LOL.. Take care everyone..

Hi,
I had a few complications with my last IVF cycle in Aug/Sept and google led me to this forum. Reading all of your posts gave me so much insight and also made me realise that I certainly wasn't going through this alone. My ET was late August and I was hospitalised a few times with hyperstimulation and chest pains (although no one could ever seem to diagnose me) - I was so ill. In all my previous attempts, I only ever took 1-2 days of work, but this time I was forced to take almost 10 days off.
Always trying not to constantly look at signs and trying to determine if its the damn drugs or real pregnancy signs. I had my hopes up and was convinced that not only 1 would stick, but they both would and finally, I would get my happy little family I've been fighting so hard to have. Well, my count was 7 - so a BFN (altthough it took me a while to work out what those initials meant!) and I was devastated. I'm not one to cry, but this time tore my heart out. I had been so good and took it easy and well, it still didn't work. I couldn't even verbalise my heartache.
Reading this site helped and 3 weeks later and I'm on day 21. DH and I couldn't book in to see ouf FS for our FET this month, but thought we would try again this month naturally. I've re-read Better Babies and have cut out caffeine, white bread and all those processed yummy things to see what happens.
I guess, my main reason for joining and posting this is - well, 3 weeks later and I'm hopeful again. After such devasting news, I'm amazed that we are able to pick ourselves up and try again. I just wanted to express this for any of the unlucky ladies who haven't been successful this month to understand and appreciate how strong we all are in going through this. I hope "Hope" quickly returns for you.

JBM oh hunny this is great news about your scan on the 8th woohoo for you i to hope this is our 3rd time luky hun i rekon it it
AFM ive left a new message in my ttc journal about our nuse app and the trouble we had with her about our 2 embies so if you want to have a look feel free
BOTTOM LINE IS IM STILL GETTING MY 2 PUT BACK
Good on you Smithy, if you want 2 put back then you should be able to. It's up to you to make those decisions and it's not like it isn't allowed to be done .
JBM: We'll be TWW buddy's with our double transfers together, although I'm hoping my transfer will be between the 6th & 10th (depending on the lining thickness and if they choose day 3 or day 5 embryo's). So will see you on the flip side (or the TWW thread).
Neptune: Congrats on your numbers. Will see you in the TWW thread next week as well, hope the transfer goes well. Are you doing 1 or 2??
Muppity: congrats on your promising transfer, will see you in the TWW shortly.
Hopefully we get some October BFP's
Everyone else: and with where you are all at with your journey's.
Ok there a few personals to get through so bear with me.
Rach 81: Hope the homework isn't getting to much for you and have fun with acupunture.
Bel: good luck with Jabbing this is where all the fun begins.
Paula: Good luck with sniffing.
Ruth 08: Good luck with jabbing, my DH makes me do my jabbing in the bathroom so he doesn't have to see it, makes me wonder how he is going the handle the delievery when we do finally get our BFP.
Lilmisshavachat: Love the name, Glad your lap went well from here on it is all forward steps toward that BFP.
Abbie: Good luck with trigger and transfer keeping for you
Brooke2550: sounds like things are moving along nicely for you thinking lots and lots of happy thoughts for you.
Kelly D: Hope US gives good results and you get you ETD
Muppity Good news about your blastie sending lots of to you.
JBM: good luck with scan, hope you get your transfer when you want it.
Neptune: How exciting 7 fertilised sounds good hope transfer goes good.
TLO: I'm sure you will find all the comfort and support you need here these ladies are great. So sorry to hear about last cycle those blasted letters BFN seem to haunt us all. 9Yrs TTC WOW you are an inspiration to us all.
Smithy: You go girl stand your ground if you want 2 put back you get 2.
AFM got my results from mon bt I don't know much about levels but the FS said my E2 was 391 and both my Prog and LH levels were low so I am to have another BT on thursday to see if there is any change.
and on another note my younger brothers second baby was born on Monday, a little boy who is 12 weeks Premature, apparently he cried when he was born so the doctors said that was a good sign. I haven't seen him yet as they live 8 hours away but I am hoping to get a weekend off work soon so I can go up and see him.
To anyone else that I missed I am sorry and good luck with what ever stage you are up to.
Yep slowly getting through the work ...I think....
Neptune: You must be stoked with those results well done! I'll be thinking of you on Saturday!
JBM: I really hope this is the one for you hun!
Wishing Baby: at DH not wanting to see injections! Tell him to put his big boy pants on....I make my DH do them for me - although he has had Type 1 diabetes since he was 3 so I guess he used to it!
Smithy - you go girl!!
TLO - It is an up and down ride that is for sure! I know exactly what you mean about hope retuning! I feel the same way- although it has taken me a lot longer to get there. So well done hun!
Lilmiss - glad you are feeling okay post op. Take care of you!Lots of
Everyone - sorry if I missed you sending you loads of !
AFM -I love love love acupuncture - looks like i needed it too! Anyway I highly recommend it to anyone considering it! Very relaxing....
Neptune Congrats and best of luck with ET on Saturday. Hope all your embies keep growing nicely.
lilmisshavachat good to hear that all went well. Your doc sounds great. Its nice when they have a sense of humour.
TLO we all know how you feel. That emotional state at the end of a negative cycle is just unexplainable. This site is definately wonderful and you will be glad to have found it. It has been a life saver for many of us. Best of luck with this cycle. Just out of curiosity, do you have unexplained infertility, PCOS, etc. (Thats if your comfortable sharing it with us)
JBM i hope this will be third time luck for us both. Best of luck!!
wishingbaby congrats on the birth of your little nephew. Hope all goes well. Good luck also with your cycle. E2 at 391 is still early days i think but slow and steady wins the race so keep in there..
AFM, nothing much happening, still sniffing and taking my last provera tablet tonight so AF show be here in a few days. Im excited to get this cycle up and running.

. Hopefully I can get used to the medication cause if we get our awaited for BFP I will be on the meds for up to 10 weeks.
