Thanks for your comments Sunbeam that's really made me feel a lot more positive about the FET. I hope you manage to get some time for yourself to rest.

OK sorry for the me post but I am furious!! I FINALLY got DH's sperm analysis back from 2006 - based on these results we have done all subsequent IVF treatments with the OK from our FS - and it clearly states he has "unusually low" morphology - 2%! Ferrals, I'm going to need your help here! Isn't that the problem that you and your DH have - morphology? And isn't that what your new FS says is a problem??
On the upside it says only 9% fragmentation giving "excellent fertility potential" and the count says 235 million (or thereabouts) which comes in at 84 million per mil. Is that good?
I'm glad we got these today and not yesterday...had a big discussion with DH yesterday about smoking and I cannot believe it but he has finally said he will quit. I am so glad, I can't tell you how relieved I am!
Sorry for no persies this morning - just keen to find out more about these results. x
Alice-good news about DH quitting the fags, afraid I can't help about the sperm count I have no idea, surely someone would have followed it up if it was a problem??
Ferals- thats great news, god straight into it, how exciting!
T-Hopes at least when you get your bfp you will be step ahead of us wih your great ticker-hehe!
Porsche- how are you? hope all is going well xx
Happybaby- Im a midwife have seen heaps of babies born from frozen embryos they are no different so tell DH not to stress
Sunbeam- sorry you can't relax, at least the time will go by quickly if you are busy but its not fair that you can't take it easy
AFM- just had counselling session at ivf and it was really good even DH liked it even though he had a tantrum at home before we left about nothing and we didn't speak for 1/2an hour-juvenile. Looking forward to fs appt next monday , can't believe its finally happening!
xx
Alice-take a breath your DH count is normal they want to see 100mil or more for total count and 20mil or more per mil so your DH's is good the fragmentation is good from what i have read my DH had no fragmentation in his test not to say he has never had any but the last test his was good NOW! the morphology based on Sydney IVF anything between 2% and 6% is considered normal so your DH being 2% and my DH being 4% they are in the normal range BUT! what my new FS said and from what i have researched anything above 85% to 90% ABNORMAL morphology is not good the WHO criteria (world health organisation) like to see about 15% NORMAL as a strict rule but 9% NORMAL as a general rule (if my memory is correct) and it is NORMAL for men to have most of their sperm with abnormal morphology just not this high so life style is a factor smoking and bad diet also cause bad morphology and enviroment is a big key to bad morphology and the WHO is seeing a huge decline in the quality of mens sperm around the world so our men are not alone.
We can still get pregnant with bad morphology it just takes longer and is more work but if i were you i would get a second opinion like i did so at least you know and can do something about it.
AFM-well today went ok i have good and bad news my FSH was 8 which is awesome but my E2 was 359 so the doctor sent me for a dildo cam on day 2 of cycle YUK! not nice to check for follicles well low and behold i had 13 follicles already and one big fat 18mm one on the right side so i was thinking great they are going to cancel before we even start the doctor and nurse seem to think that i always have a big follicle early as i had one last month too so the doctor said we will ignore the big follicle and consentrate on all the little follicles so we wont get a good egg out of that one it will be to over done.
So now we just keep an eye on my E2 levels and hope to god this lead follicle doesnt cause any problems.
Worst case that lead follicle soaks up all the hormones and the others don't keep up and they cancel or my E2 skyrockets and they cancel the nurse did say as my E2 got to 16,400 last time with no sign of OHSS they can let me go to 30,000 at time of egg pick up :o.
So i don't know if i should be excited that i start my injections tomorrow as i have a real chance of this cycle being canceled
Thanks Ferrals, I feel MUCH better about it after your post - will definitely get a second opinion but also a second test. DH has (apart from smoking) a healthy lifestyle so that's good.
Can't believe you are starting your injections tomorrow! I hope that E2 behaves and your other follies get growing quick! xx
Morning!
Alice - great news to hear DH is giving up the ciggies!! Must be such a relief! What would we do without our Ferrals and all her info?! And I agree to get a 2nd opinion, you just never know and it certainly wont hurt!
Ferrals a.k.a - Wiki (wikipedia!) So awesome that your starting injections! It's all happening! Now... E2 - what exactly is E2?
Saffy - happy to hear your session went well!! The blokes always seem to moan and groan about those type of appts but they end up getting just as much outta it than we do!
AFM - Just wondering if anyone has ever experienced 'implantation pain'?? Is it an urban legend or what?? Reason Im asking is I had some very sharp pains yesterday (6dpo), very low on the left side, lasted 15 mins on and off and then nothing since! No bleeding or anything! Or maybe it was just a cyst! Who knows! Im sure im just reading in to things too much!
We had some sad news yesterday with my MIL - she has tongue cancer! We have known for a few weeks but found out yesterday that to have any chance of survival, she will have to have her entire tongue removed, followed but massive amounts of radiation & chemo! Poor darlin! She is in so much pain, lost 20 kgs, she is just skin and bone! She will need a permanent tube in her tummy to feed her and will never be able to talk or eat again! She is 55 y/old! Smoker - yes, but still doesnt deserve this! And this comes 7weeks after my FIL was diagnosed with colon cancer! Its just getting worse! Im so scared that she wont be around to meet our babies :( I just hope so much that we get our BFP sooner rather than later, nothing would make her happier cause even though all this is happening to her, she is more worried about us! :shakehead:
Saffy, sorry I missed you yesterday...glad you found the IVF counselor good and even better that your DH did too. I hope that it helps.
T-hopes, :( your poor MIL - that is just awful... I hope you get your BFP soon. I have read all sorts of things about implantation bleeding and pain...having only been pg once I can't help you I'm afraid - I don't remember anything like that but it certainly happens to some woman so good luck and hopefully your news will be here soon.
MatthewsMum - how are you going today? Still no spotting? Keeping everything crossed.
Ferrals!! Good luck today! Wow that has happened fast after all that waiting...really hoping you get your BFP at the end of this and a nice healthy bub!
Crafty, thinking of you
Sunbeam - hope you get some rest - really important to put yourself first - can you get some sneaky sleeps in?
Sevie, Mildez, HappyBaby and anyone else I've missed - hugs to you all.
x
T-Hopes-Sorry to here about your inlaws cancer is a horrible disease i hope they get through this time to see your babies.
And E2 is Estrogen.
THopes- thats shocking news, your poor MIL how cruel, I hope everything goes ok for her, your family has a lot on its plate at the moment. I don't know about implantation pain I think some poeple get cramping. I always have sharpish pains on my right side, like o pain, used to only get it around o but now its all over the shop, this month I got it on my left side also. Our bodies are weird aren't they, I probably always had it but now i am TTC i moniter every little tiny twinge!!!xx
Ferals- hope you can start injecting, there is no end to the stress is there, praying that your cycle doesn't get cancelled.xx
Hi Alice, doing another test is a good idea cos I think the results change from... ahem...specimen to specimen, so if it was a few years ago it may all be different xx
Saffy-I started my injections this morning we just have to wait until next thursday's U/S and BT to see how my E2 is going and to see if that lead follicle has settled down enough to let all the little ones catch up if not they will cancel my cycle GEE! i have been here before with high E2 levels and the chance of being cancelled it just adds to the stress.
Hi Lovelies
happy friday :)
T-Hopes - I am so sorry to hear what a horrible time your MIL and FIL are having, its all so unfair sometimes. I really hope you get your BFP soon and that gives her the will to fight on. I have had implantation pains sometimes (not with this one) it felt like a sharp little poke in my uterus too far left or right to be ovary pain. FX that's what it is the timing would seem right.:crossfingers:
Saffy - so glad to gear you found a counsellor you like even if DH did have a dummy spit before hand :D
Ferrals - OMG your eggs amaze me. I had no idea it was possible to have a 18mm follie during AF! When your E2 gets to a gjillion do you feel really weepy, I can't imagine it feels nice. I so hope it behaves itself so you don't get canceled your BFP must be here soon.
Mathew'smum - any news, how you feeling?
Alice - glad Ferrals was able to shed some light on the SA for you. Remember one goodie is all it takes. So glad DH is going to finally quit, so much better for him you and your bub.:clap:
AFM - well the tiredness has been okay today maybe 'cos I know its nearly the weekend. I have been lying down for half hour at lunch time but still by the time I get home all I can do is get into bed. I rest for an hour or so then I can get up for dinner. By the time I get home too my boobs feel lie they are about to explode and get so veiny they look like a road map! It is just bliss to take off my bra. Very happy that next week is a very very quiet week. I have also organised to do a half day on wednesdays for the next few months to give me a break mid week.
I really can't believe it is only 10 days since I go my BFP it feels like it has been weeks already. I have been hovering in PAML but as soon as I start to read posts about people spotting or bleeding I just get really paniced about losing this one and I can't read anymore so you might have me here for a while sorry.
Have a great weekend
Hi all
T-hopes sorry about your inlaws its bad enough having one ill but both well thats just real bad luck I hope they don't stress you out too much ! thinking of them I mean you need to relax too !
Ferrals yay for your levels I feel you will be ok and have a basket full of eggs to collect soon you know your body and I am sure you are doing everything you can to keep your E2 in check !
Alice thanks for asking about me I am ok have to be !
sunbeam so glad your still doing ok tiredness is good and so are sore bbs bring on the nausea and you know your ok !
AFM well Af turned up thursday so thats good really 31 day cycle not too bad I guess at least I still having a cycle so I keep thinking I must still be in with a chance however small,
Keep having really bad days of crying and crying and just feel so damn defeated thinking why is god so cruel why did he let me fall pg last year for nearly 13wks then take it away I was ready to go into the next stage of my life with no more babies now I feel like I am on the edge of a big black hole an waiting to fall into it !!!
Sorry its a down post but I really am DOWN
Sunbeam-I know i cant believe my body either the FS said before that i was too fertile too early but that my egg never pops until day 11-13 anyway so it just starts growing as soon as AF is here which is fine for natural conception and actually really good for fertility purposes but no help when DH has homer simpson sperm and they can't get in i am just amazed that i have so many follicles at my age i am quiet impressed although my high estrogen never allows all of them to reach their full potential as they have to trigger me before they all can get to the right size a bit of a bummer but nothing i can do about my hormones and no i don't get weepy i get reallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly horny and very um:lol: moist down below but DH doesnt mind one bit lol.
Crafty-AWWWWW hun you can do this a little longer i know how you feel i feel the same some days but then i have a little glimmer of hope.
I am not going all out with my E2 i will just drink lots of water and i brought some protein powder today to try and help but i know that once on the injections i can't take my herbs so not a lot i can do but just cross my fingers my body doesnt over react to much.
Crafty :grouphug: I remember you saying that in your appointment with the FS it was like having the mc all over again and I guess that shows how deeply this loss has hurt you. I'm so sorry :( It will take time, be gentle with yourself. I wish they would have let you have a go at IVF, I mean, if my SIL can, why can't you? It's your money... sorry, I'm probably not helping.
I can appreciate what you are saying when you felt like last year life could go on without any more bubs and you were OK with that and your mc turned all that upside down. It feels so cruel. I hope that nature will find a way to give you one more baby xx I feel the same about falling pg on my last go at IVF - I was quite calm and accepting of the fact that I would never have kids, then it all got thrown up into the air when I fell pg and then the mc. Take care
Ferrals, no they can't cancel! Hope that E2 behaves - well, enough for you not to behave, but not too much for your cycle to get cancelled IYKWIM!! ;) Why can't you keep taking your herbs?
Happy Friday Sunbeam - rest up, your symptoms sound great. We'll keep you company til you're ready to go to anywhere else
Hi Ladies - I just posted in the wrong thread and was wondering why some of you weren't there!! Now I know duh!! Anyway sorry if I miss anyone as there has been so much going on in here!!
Ferrals4 - GL with the stim cycle - hope your E2 behaves. My last stim cycle nearly got cancelled but I never have any OHSS and the docs are amazed my E2 gets sooo high and everything goes fine so FX you will be the same.
CM9 - so sorry you are having such a hard time. Hang in there and just love up that big brood you have.
Sunbeam - big congrats on your BFP!!
Saffy - so glad the counselling is helping. Sometimes we just need to know we are not alone and that what we are feeling is totally normal.
Porsche - GL with your cycle.
Happybaby - FET's are just as good as fresh!!
I know I've missed people but I am paranoid about losing this post as I did a huge one Thursday and then got some dumb message from BB about an error.
AFM - We got our BFP on Monday. HCG is rising but prog dropped Thursday and had some spotting Friday but then prog went through the roof to 220 so we are just enjoying it for what it is for now. As the nurse said we are still pregnant and will re check all on Monday but feeling cautiously optimistic and just a little tiny bit excited.....finally.
Cheers Trea
Trea - Congratulations! :happyforyou: Wonderful news for you guys! Praying that you have a very happy & healthly nine months ahead! xx
Trea - congratulations!! What a rough time you've had. Sending you lots of :stickyvibesboy::Hoping that all goes well with this pg - best wishes to you x
T-hopes - how's that TWW going? Are you going to test soon?? Fingers crossed for you! :pink-babydust:
MatthewsMum - I'm hoping all is well with you and that you are enjoying a mini-break during your TWW!:pink-babydust:
Ferrals - how're you going with your jabs? Hoping the bt this Thursday shows all is going well. When is your next scan? :pink-babydust:
Saffy - good luck seeing your FS tomorrow (or is it next week?)
Love to everyone else - hope you're all having a good weekend.
Nothing much to report here...taking DH's sperm results to the TCM practitioner on Tuesday to see what she thinks. Have made an appointment to see our FS Thursday week to talk a few things through (including pathology from our mc - still anxious about that) I'm also a bit worried about being on the DHEA for so long and with a few months still to go. Feeling pretty well though, which is encouraging. My temps are starting to look normal so all in all, diet must be doing me good. Now if only I could find the time to exercise...
Trea-Congratz i really hope this little bub hangs in there if you don't mind me asking what did your E2 levels get to mine was 16,400 on day of trigger last ivf cycle and i got no sign of OHSS either and my new clinic said there cut off to cancel is 30,000:o but if you are showing signs of not feeling well they will cancel earlier i seem to have high E2 even when not on meds.
Anyway my fingers are crossed for you.
Alice-the jabbing is going along fine except i went straight through a vain the other morning when i was half asleep so i have a hugh black bruise but otherwise all good starting to feel little niggles but nothing much i start my orgalutran tomorrow ouch! that needle hurts.
Hi to everyone i missed i will be back tomorrow night i have to get ready for work.
AFM-all good praying all my smaller follies are growing and the big bugger is not doing to much only time will tell i have BT and U/S this thursday and they will decide then if i continue or we get cancelled i am expecting to get cancelled because of this lead follicle i mean a 18mm follie on day 2 is not going to give my little follies much time to catch up so they will be imature if i am triggered to soon so not holding out much hope but my fingers are crossed.
Hi Ladies
Congratuations Trea Great news!
Ferrals FX your cycle goes ahead and it's not cancelled! Good luck.
Hi Lovlies,
Trea - :happyforyou: That is awesome news. Sorry you had a bit of a scare already. We both have bt tomorrow so :crossfingers: lets hope its great news for both of us. :stickyvibesgirl:
Crafty - think you jinxed me with your "bring on the nausea and you know you are okay" comment 'cos its here! I'm totally not complaining but it did seem ever so ironic that the only person not drinking at my housemates birthday last night was the only person who threw up this morning :lol:
Ferrals - aren't the bruises attractive? In my last cycle my stomach looked like I was being beaten up by a 3 foot person! Are your injections in your stomach or legs? What a shocker that your DH does not mind that your E2 makes you horny and juicy heheeh :lol:
Alice - thanks for saying I can stay. I feel so at home in this thread with people I have known for ages.
Hi everyone else hope you are having a happy relaxing weekend.
hi all,ferrals-hope bt &us brings good news..sunbeam-yah for morning sickness,good sign..porshe-how are you?..alice-good for dh for quitting..saffy-good luuk tomorrow...trea-congratulations...craftymummy-hope your feeling more up today...t-hopes-fingers crossed this is your month,sorry about your in-laws health...happybaby-clinic told me they see bfp's with frozen embies...murraycod-thinking of you...afm-been on holidays for a few days,af due tomorrow,but i did a hpt this morning using fmu & it was a bfn,so even though i've had no spotting/bleeding like last transfer looks like af is on it's way,not going to poas again,not up to seeing that one line,clinic will probably still want bt on wednesday so i'll wait for that
oh :( MatthewsMum - I'm so sorry you got a BFN :hug: I hope the few days away that you had were restful and I'm hoping that this one is just slow in appearing. Thinking of you xx
Saffy, good luck today
Crafty I am so sorry that this has happened to you and options are so limited to help get a sticky BFP. I wish there was something more we could say or do. Praying for a BFP for you soon. It wouldn't be the first time. It is so cruel.
Huge CONGRATULATIONS Trea. I am very happy for you.
Matthews mum I am also sorry about the BFN. I hope the test was bodgy and the BT shows a BFP.
Ferrals I know its not ideal but if your cycle is cancelled is there anything you can do to catch that one big fat follie that has taken off faster then the rest?
I lost this thread. I don't know why but I only just found it. I feel so rotton at the moment with conjuntivitis and a terrible cold.
Sunbeam-:rofl: never thought to use the the word juicey to decribe my neather regions.
And the bruises are attractive aren't they i am doing them in my belly because i have a nice little muffin top to make it less painful.
Mathewsmum-I am soooooooooo sorry it was a BFN lets just hope it is just a bit slow to show up.
Saffy-good luck with FS today.
Mildez-i supose we can BD and try to catch an egg but the chance of me releasing multiple eggs is really high so i don't think i would like to get pregnant with multiple babies 2 would be ok but with our SLO gene it is not worth the risk if one baby is healthy and the other affected what do we do then it would be a risk to the healthy baby to terminate the sick one and even if we carried both to term it would still be a risk to the healthy one as the sick one could die in the womb at any time so not a choice i would like to make unless they tell me only the one egg would pop then we would go for it.
AFM-started orgalutran today yeh! 2 needles fun fun fun.
That makes sense Ferrals. I thought perhaps if one was huge compared to the others maybe the others would reabsorb but then I guess the risk would be too high that you would release more eggs then just one anyway. I was gievn the option to implant two embies at a time and although I would love twins and the wait would seem so worth while I couldn't risk it IYKWIM! It would be too much for me to expect to carry two babies to close to term (my DD was a month early) I just couldn't do it to them. And knowning my luck I'd have one in the uterus and one ectopic (thats what happened with my last ectopic. They said there was an empty gestational sac in the uterus and then one in the tube. IVF puts me at greater risk of another ectopic so I'd probably loose both embies anyway. Although it would be so awesome to have twins after 36weeks and have a vaginal birth.
:hug:Ferrals - good luck for thursday, praying that everything works out and everything goes ahead for you!
Mildez - nice to see your little avatar, wondered how you were going! oooh conjunctivitus! Eik, nothing worse than having to pry your eyelids apart in the morning! Get well soon, take it easy!
Alice - Im going to poas this wednesday! It's our 10yr anninversary on Wednesday so thought it would be a great gift to each other but not holding my breath! :crossfingers: Good luck for your coming appts! And great that the new diet is helping! My temps have been really good this month after being a bit dodge for a few months! I find it very reassuring when they behave! Makes me feel like im on track!
matthewsmum - oh love, im so sorry that you got a bfn yesterday, how many days post were you? is it possible it was a little early? thinking of you and sending lots of love your way :comfort:
Trea / Sunbeam - good luck for your BT today! Thinking of you both and praying those levels have shot thru the roof! :D
crafty - lovely crafty - i wish i had an answer for you as to why god would give you something so precious and then take it away again! I wonder the same thing too.... Keep pushing on... i know you can, you are such a strong woman, you have a supportive husband and have raised 9 children! You can do this! :hug:
porche - how are things with you?
Murray - if your lurking, sending you a big hug :)
AFM - Had a nice w/end, spent lots of time with our families which was lovely!
Had a 1st bday yesterday and one of DH's mates wives was there, she is 4mths preg and she did not stop whinging the entire time! I could have slapped her! Then she said 'everyone keeps telling me that this will be worth it but im having a hard time believing it now!' She knows that i have lost and are have trouble concieving again, some people are so heartless... they just dont get it!
Anyway... will poas still in 2 more sleeps, will be 12 dpo by then so were praying (as per usual) that we will be blessed this month!
And counting down till I see 'Eclipse'!!!! 2 sleeps! Going to the midnight show! Whoooop! Oh Edward!! :dance:
xx
Hi Ladies
Matthew's Mum - :hug: I hate that 1 line. If it is a BFN I hope AF hurries up so you can start fresh. But if it is a BFP then hurry up and show already!
Sunbeam & Trea - FX for you BT today. I'm hoping your numbers leap of the pages!
THopes - Some women just have no Idea do they? I had one lady say that she wished she wasn't pregnant because she was having morning sickness. Oh if only I had morning sickness. What a dream.
AFM - I'm pill popping at the moment. Then on Saturday I start synarel again. Never thougt I'd be on BCP again. FF has put me 3DPO today and I'm not comfortable with that because on Tuesday last week I had no dominant follicles and then I also had an appointment on Saturday with the same out come and no evidence of having O'd. I'm just going to stick with my meds for the time being and test on Mondaynext week. I just don't understand why my body isn't cooperating this time when it is so vitally important.
Hi Ladies
Just a quick post to say that bt was good, don't know numbers because I don't want to know. Have my first scan booked for 9th July at 8.45am. She said I can go for another bt if I want before then. Feeling very stressed already about the scan. Finished work for the day going home to rest and try and shift this sore throat.
Be back later.
Fantastic news on the BT Sunbeam.
T-Hopes did I read something wrong or does your DH have more then one wife? I guess its a typo and its DH mates wife? Anyway boo to that lady not appreciating what she has when I am sure each of us in here would give an arm or a leg to have what she has. Hope that POAS in 2days time is a BFP.:
porsche hope the pill popping is going ok. I too feel weird going back on the OCP after vowing never to take it again (ever literally) obviously its part of the process in many IVF cycles but its weird isn't it?
hahahahaha! Mildez thanks for picking that up..... I meant one of DH's mates wives is pregnant!! Oooops! :redface:
Sunbeam! Great news!!!! xx
Does anyone know how long Avatars normally take? A few weeks im guessing???
Thats ok T-hopes I thought it was either funny or you were of a culture which permitted more then 1 wife. Then that would be absolutely horrible to see your husbands other wife pregnant when you are desperate to be pregnant also. I mean its horrible either way but what a bigger kick in the gutts if your husbands other wife was pregnant IYKWIM? Although it is illegal in Australia to have registered marriages with more then one person it still happens. I see a man regularly come in with a different wife at work. And then his wives come and visit his other wife with all there children. Not for me but if appropriate I am sure some men would love that idea lol and the wives seem like really good friends so I guess they have lots of support.
T Hopes - Geez some people are just soooo thoughtless and just down right pathetic. I'm so sorry you had to put up with that crap. Don't you just wish you could walk up to them and tell how you feel or make some really good comment.
MathewsMum - so sorry your POAS was neg. Crossing fingers it changes at your BT.
Porsche - I hope your body starts cooperating and does what it it told.
Ferrals - My stim cycle back in Feb my E2 was 10,000 at day 4 of stim on 220 FSH. The doctor was peaking!! He dropped my dose back and i had EPU early (normally go early anyway). Funny thing is this was my 5th stim and first time my E2 was ever monitored. My other FS's ( I've had 4 in total) never did it. Hope all goes well for your EPU and you get lots of little eggies.
Sunbeam - oooo a scan!! One little step at a time girl.
Quickly AFM - hcg 1200 and doc is happy for me to have a scan next week.
Cheers Trea
Trea, Sunbeam - congrats on those great blood test results! Sunbeam, I can imagine that you are feeling scared about the scan, especially if you are feeling unwell. Rest up and try to find that place inside you again that is calm and just taking each day as it comes. We are all holding you and bub in our thoughts and sending the strongest sticky vibes imaginable - lots of love to you x
Ferrals - Ouch!! When you said you'd hit a vein I think I flinched! They're nasty bruises too that take ages to go away. No more bruises OK?! Keep everything crossed for you for Thursday
MatthewsMum, any bleeding today? Just so hoping your BFP is taking a bit longer to appear. Hugs to you
Mildez! I wondered what had happened to you!! Why does IVF make an ectopic more likely? (just wondering). I'm with you on not wanting to risk twins though every time I'm faced with the choice I just want to yell at them to put the whole damn lot back, I don't care I want a family now!!! But yes, too risky, so one little embie at a time....
T-hopes, I have to say I did read your post twice! I have met nearly all of DH's ex but none of them were wives and I was thinking when I read your post, what a *****!!!!!! I know why we don't often pull other women up on it but sometimes I feel inclined, and do, say things like "well, there are plenty of women who can't fall pg who I'm sure would love to be feeling sick right now so I guess you just have to be grateful that you're not one of them!" - let them feel awkward and stupid and insensitive (although I guess you've got to make a judgement about whether you'll get one who doesn't feel that and immediately starts asking you uncomfortable questions so maybe not the best approach but I'm sure you understand!!). Anyway, it would be LOVELY for you to get a BFP on your ten year anniversary! We all have dreams about how and when our BFP might come - mine was always wanting to tell the family at Christmas (for some reason) and lo and behold, last year we got to do exactly that so bring on your anniversary!!
Porsche, good luck with the spray - IKWYM about going back on the bcp - weird isn't it? I hope this cycle goes well.
Hi ladies,
Just wanted to pop in and say Hi im not feeling up to chatting i feel my E2 is really high my face has broken out in pimples the same as i had last time at EPU time but i am only on day 7 and day 5 of stimms so not real confident i will get to EPU.
hi everyone,af came this morning,ivf nurse said still go for bt tomorrow to check if there is any hcg at all (indication if implantation happened,then stopped or if embie wasn't able to implant all).i can go straight into another fet cycle,which is what i've opted to do.while we were away we hit a big pot hole in one of the roads,hope that didn't cause it to happen.Clinic says it is the quality of the embryos,so don't think i'll be doing another stim cycle myself,think i'll try egg donor route or just wait to become a dotting grandma in about 6 years time according to dd1 plans...thinking of you all
Ferrals - We know our bodies best, sorry that your feeling that way but you just never know... hang in there!
Matthewsmum - my heart is broken for you, i wish I could give you the big hug that Im sure you need! Sending lots of love your way and so sad that things didn't turn out better for you this month. xx
Hi girls,
Matthew'smum- so sorry that af arrived, that s such a shame but its good you can get straight back into it. I'm sure nothing you did caused it sweetie xxxx
Ferals-hoping for you that your body hangs in there, you never know, good luck, when are you getting itchecked again? xx
T-Hopes- I must admit I looked twice at our Dh's other wife comment- hehe! Sorry she was so thoughtless, its annoying.Fingers crossed for a bfp for you xx
Sunbeam- congrats on the bt, 9th july sounds like a long time away but it will be here so quickly, hope you can keep relaxed before. Sticky vibes to you and your little ray of sun xx
Mildez- like Alice I was wondering why ivf increases he rate of ectopic? It seems weird, like it should decrease it or something.
Alice-hi lovey, how is everything? Is it harder being on your diet during winter? I have just eaten my 5th and 6th slices of raisin toast in 12 hours ( have been on night shift where it is a life saver)Hows DH's ciggie withdrawl going or hasn't he started it yet? Hope you are having a good day!xx
Trea- congrats sweetheart!
afm-had FS appt yesterday, it went well but I was having a bad day so felt a bit flat when I got out. My fur baby got in a fight sunday night and I went to take him to the vets yesterday morning and he escaped out the door and went AWOL all day, only came back at night and was obviously sick so I had to take him this morning (after night shift- so tired), he's in hospital now but I will pick him up this afternoon so hopefully he will be feeling better! Anyway the FS wants me to start the BCP when my AF comes (about 10 days away) then she thought we wouldn't get injecting etc til august and egg pick up start of Sept! it sounds like so much waiting and so far away, but I will have to practice patience I guess ( or pray fro a BFP this month!!) anyway, if I am going to do it, I want Af to get here ASAP or not at all!! I better get up and about , have been asleep all day since getting home from vets, and it is pouring with rain outside, currently I'm watchign trash tv in pj's on couch!!
