Matthewsmum your not too old at all if you were then I would be too and I am not so lets just get the job done and get on out of here ! I have known you since sept 09 when I first joined the thread and I was the oldest one on here then and still am I think ( 46 in april ) I have a son of nearly 26 and 19 so I know how you feel but hey thats cause we had them young lol !!!
I do hope the cm blood streaked is a good sign for you ! I am quitely hopefull it is in fact implantation so FX and blood test soon will tell you for sure !
Its been really hot here in Perth and yesterday I felt so ill in the arvo bad headache,weak,sick feeling and sooo tired so not sure if its just the heat as we have no aircon and it was 33 in the house with the fan on, anyhow DH has assured me we will be getting aircon fitted on monday next week and if by some miracle I get a BFP then I can at least keep a bit cooler !
I bought a new baby gift for a friend of mine who just had her boy 2 wks ago in the UK but just can't seem to post it ! I want it for me ! is that really selfish of me am I going round the twist hanging on to something I can never use again ?????
matthewsmum- sorry you keep having bleeds but don't give up, indiasmum had the same and still got a bfp, I really hope you can hang on til tomorrow for your BT, fingers crossed for you sweetie, I really hope things go ok xxxx
crafty-hope you get your aircon soon, heat isn't something we have had to deal with much in Victoria this summer!! I know I hate buying people baby things nd never being able to buy any myself, I feel like i am always buying cards and baby gifts, it is difficult xxx
minniemouse- how are you going? Have you ovulated yet?
THopes- thanks mate, xxx
HI to Loops, Indiasmum, Sunbeam, I've missed someone I think? hope all is well,
afm- had my FS appt, I wasn't very happy when I came out but am over it now. He doesn't have very good listening skills, lets put it that way. He didn't really think I have a progesterone problem ( I don't agree) but agreed to put me on double dose of crinone next time and if I do an FET again I have to do HRT instead of natural. Feeling a bit down about everything and not sleeping well, but will see acupuncture lady tomorrow so she will put things right I hope.
Great news indias mum FX you keep getting bigger and a take home baby this time you sure deserve it !
saffy I know its hard when fs don't seem to listen but hey they see women all the time and at the end of the day they know there job I guess ! but if he agreed to give you hrt and crinone then go for it, I went last year to see a fs and was 45 and had 9 live births and 5 mcs and well he basically said to me I have a chance of another bfp but its unlikely and I would be wasting my money on any treatments as my age ! it hurt like hell as all I wanted was another bfp to heal this hole in my heart and it felt like he didn't give a sh*t about me and offered counciling to get over my need for more children !!!
Anyhow I came out the rooms sobbing and promised myself I would not give up just because he didn't want to help me ! anyhow at the end of the day you have age on yourside and if he will agree to some help then thats great I say !!!
rambled a bit there sorry !
Matthewsmum anynews BT tomorow ?
afm well bloo*y hot still but just taking one day at a time shopping to keep cool ! no symptoms of any kind so not sure if I Ovulated or not but dtd a good few times so if I did I have a chance !
india'smum: great news on your scan, i hope all is good from here for you
matthewsmum: any update ? have you poas or will you wait for the blood test ?
crafty: fingers crossed you are in with a chance this cycle
saffy: it is SO frustrating when the specialists won't listen to you, i feel the same with mine which is why im getting another opinion, ironically its the same issue you have with progesterone
afm: no ovulation yet, hopefully within the next 10 days, i have ewcm from today so things may be happening, will start opt's from tomorrow and probably start bding soon, as with every cycle i don't want to start too early cause it becomes such a chore
Hi Ladies
So sorry about suspected AF Matthewsmum, Hugs ~ Still crossing fingers its not though.
Minniemouse ~ GL with the BD'ing!
Crafty mummy ~ GL to you, FX'd for this month!
India's mum ~ WOW - that is fabulous, congrats on the pos scan. Hope everything continues to go well, FX'd tight and lots of
Saffy ~ Hi hun, hope you are feeling bit better, esp after having the accupuncture. FX'd for you too next cycle!
Hi to everyone else floating around - hope you are all well!
AFM ~ had a bit of spotting and thought ohh perhaps implantation bleed because I only at CD 29 and usually my cycles are at least 32-34days but no doesnt look like it, appears to be getting heavier and brighter (sorry if TMI).
Had a job interview Thursday - might be getting back into my field of study, FX'd
hi everyone,clinic rang today ,blood test showed a positive hcg level,but progesterone was only 1,so nurse said embie implanted but my ovaries didn't continue to make enough progesterone to support the pregnancy,she said if embie hasn't come away already it will soon.Have to have bt's until they 're showing no more pregnancy hormone.
matthewsmum I guess firstly I have to say how sorry I am its a bfn but on the bright side at least you have a little hope that it can work for you if they sort out the progesterone side of things so a little bit positve thinking and I rekon you will be in with a bfp next time, must be so tireing all the stress but try to rest and look on the bright side you are so close now I can feel it keep going !
afm well still bloo*y hot here in Perth and well it just sucks all the energy out of you as we have no aircon and trouble sleeping in the heat, anyhow DH says come back in May for more ttc sex as its too damn hot and he hasn't got the energy ! so I am quietly thinking oh well thats it then hes lost interest and I can't say I blame him after 17mnths of constantly DTD at around ovulation time I must say its become a real chore and maybe we should just throw in the towel while we still love each other iykwim !!!!
MatthewsM ~ So sorry the PG wont eventuate - I was the same with very low P4, I feel for you. But yes as per what Crafty said, at least you know you can do it. Surely there is something that can be done to prepare for next time in terms of the low P4. Rest up and I hope its not long until you can try again. (((GBH)))
MM ~ Thanks heaps, they are interviewing more this week, so I might not find out until next week. Yeh unfortunately the bleeding has increased but at least its come on time this time, hope that means my system is getting back to normal after last IVF back in Oct. Any sign of O'ing for you yet? Goodluck
Crafty ~ Perhaps a little break is in order anyway - regain some of your life back for a little. Definitely know what ya mean.
thanks ladies,bleeding has stopped,hcg is down to 2,so clinic said i could go straight into another fet,tracking for 'o' will start on the 7th.Asked about progesterone support next time to help,but the nurse said today that even if i had progesterone support this time it probably wouldn't of made a difference as bt before transfer showed prog levels rising.i've read that high progesterone doesn't hurt,so i'll ask again,or to at least test progesterone after transfer,what's another bt.
sorry I have been MIA but loaned my computer to mum, who took ages to give it back, I've been reading though.
Firstly, Matthewsmum- SO CLOSE, sorry it didnt' get there, bl**dy progesterone, I wish it wouldn't wreck all our plans. You were a natural FET weren't you? Are you going to do natural again or HRT? I wish the clinics would be a little more generous with their progesterone support if it is safe to use, how frustrating! I really wish you didn't have to be disappointed again sweetie xxxx
Loops-did you end up getting AF? At least your cycle is getting shorter hopefully. Did you get the job??? Hope so, xx
Crafty- oh poor you, I don't blame the DH's for throwing in the towel occasionally, they must feel like giggalos at times, TTC sex is definatley a chore sometimes. Has it cooled down??
Minniemouse- any O yet? Hope your BD fest has started. xx
India'smum- so excited for you, what a great result!! xx
Luna- are still around? Anything exciting happening? xx
Sunbeam-
AFM- Starting jabs next week, I'm a bit worried i've got an ovarian cyst though as I have had pain ond off in my lower left side for a few months, I went to my gp about it recently and have a scan on Friday. Once I started the OCP for this cycle it went but now its come back again, both GP and FS had a feel inside ( nice) but didn't feel anything. Please god don't let it be anything that cancels my cycle !!!!
In other news, I had a cry to my acupuncture lady about my progesterone last time and my FS, she is going to give me herbal support in my next cycle to help the progesterone, and she thinks I should swap clinics if this cycle doesn't work, as the FS an hour away gives much more individualised care than the one I currently see. I sort of knew this anyway, but the last meeting I had with him pushed me over the edge lol.
Anyway, hopefully it won't even be an issue, for success!
so frustrating with these specialist not wanting to give progesterone, does anyone why they are so anti doing it ?
saffy: good luck with your scan tomorrow, i hope it is all fine, you don't need complications ruining a cycle. good your acupuncture lady will give something to help with progesterone
matthewsmum: i hope ovulation isn't too far away for you, do you have many frozen embies left ?
crafty: are you in with a chance this cycle ?
hi to loops, luna, sunbeam and india's mum
afm: day 21 today and positive opt today, we are covered for the last few days so might do it again tonight or tomorrow night and we should be in with a chance
Your not too old !
Perhaps a little break is in order anyway - regain some of your life back for a little. Definitely know what ya mean.
so excited for you, what a great result!! xx
