I'm here was reading not posting as was busy w work over long weekend and letrozole has me in a bit of a FOG. Bit of catching up to do...
minnie- sorry for BFN, back to the drawing board , next month we are all getting utd I promise, its beyond a joke now!!! Have you got any more spotting? Or will AF wait until progesterone finishes? Glad I finally found you on facebook too
Sunbeam-woohoo for new job and being my cycle buddy, ?how did you manage a whole FET cycle before I even got AF I love how guys are scared of performing, its cute.
crafty- I feel your frustration, I ALWAYS O'd in the middle of the week when DH was in a coma from work, never on the weekend when we had time to DTD. Lots of people think they missed it but somehow the little swimmers manage to get in the right place at the right time FX. Tell him you'll get a turkey baster if he doesn't lift his game lol.
Claresmummy- no TTC?? What are you going to do with all your free time , no charting, checking undies for ewcm, temps, BDing, obsessing over phantom symptoms, peeing on sticks etc etc ( or is that just me??)
HI loops- how are you going? Have you told your dr about the faint bfp?
AFM- last day of letrozole, so I must be CD7, sunbeam I think its used to make sure your body is definately Oing and the hormones behave themselves. Having a scan next Wednesday to check follicle, lining etc then OPKs, BT then hopefully transfer! I don't feel bloated at all like on clomid, just had a few headaches and tiredness. Bit grumpy too but i think work caused that not the tablets haha.
I'm getting ready for our run of BFPs, then we can close this thread down FOREVER
Minnie~ Glad you are looking forward to your next cycle darl, woohoo for the positive attitude you have. Big hugs to you.
Saf~ No TTC for us this cycle, don't get me wrong darl, I was still checking for EWCM and taking my temp and doing my OPTs just to make sure I O'd and how long my LP will be this cycle so I have info for my OB GYN appointment in exactly 2 weeks time. So the only thing we are missing this cycle is the horrible 2WW to hopefully get a BFP that probably wouldn't happen anyhow, so all in all yes I was still monitoring Ovulation but I know I don't have to stress over everything in the 2WW as I know this cycle will be a BFN. Just didnt want to risk a BFP before my appointment so he has a free run to start any testing he may want to do with me, which he hopefully will as my last OB GYN did not do anything no tests nothing just put me straight onto clomid and that was it....hopefully this one will be very very different, FX.
Well half way through my TWW well thinks so anyway, had some BBs tenderness but hey beens nothing right still praying for a miracle and still taking the vitex think im getting a bit more used to it now as it was giving me dreadful headaches and I was quite depressed but thats how it goes on this thread hey girls.
DH had the day off yesterday and we had a good chat and he was sorry he was not upto date with TTC but promised to be upto date in the future even if it means sending him a text during the day to REMIND him what cycle day we are on !!!
saffy good luck with the scans and lets hope these BFPs start coming soon and we get out of this thread !
sunbeam how you doing when do you get to egg pick ?
Crafty - Do you think you didn't O at all or will it just be a late one? I will be back on OPKs now and will have to test cd13-cd25 as I can O anytime between cd17 and cd26! I'm sorry DH has been difficult but I'm glad you guys worked it out. That is weird that the vitex makes you depressed it has quite the opposite effect on me and I will continue to take it pretty much forever as it helps with my mood. I hope the sore BBs is the first sign of your miracle.
Minniemouse - I'm sorry it was a BFN but that's good that you are all ready to go with the clomid.
Saffy - That is crazy that I went through a whole FET while you waited for AF. I'm glad the Letrozole hasn't been too hard on you. I don't get the whole scared of performing it's not like it's something they don't do on a pretty regular basis usually anyway!! Boys!!! And totally yes to bringing on the BFP run it has been ages.
Claire'smummy - I really hope your new FS is on the ball your last one sounds pretty slack. I have to say from my 4 months off it is nice to have a stress free cycle not checking for symptoms every minute of the TTW.
AFM - Well I am all booked for a scan to check follie size and lining on the 27th, cd15. I will be doing OPKs too so I'll make sure I don't miss it, if by some miracle I O before cd17 ( it never happened in 3 years of charting). My 50 OPKs arrived in the post yesterday so i feel all set. We are not getting Donor daddy's swimmers checked at this point as I don't want to put any extra pressure on him but given that his partner has a 9 month old and is 15 weeks pregnant I'm guessing they can't be too bad!
sunbeam get well soon
Maybe my hormones were so out of whack it took vitex a while to agree with me and settle down but I have read on the net that it can give headaches nausea and either make moods better or worse but today I feel great so I guess I am getting used to it after 3 full weeks of taking it despite how shi* I felt I am so glad I carried on.
Not sure if I did O or not as my opks were all the same a faint 2nd line that never got darker ! oh well keep trying I say !!!
crafty- I had weird effects from vitex as well, I had to stop taking it immediantely, it was making me crazy, esp at night trying to get to sleep I had racing thoughts and anxiety, I googled and other people had effects like that too.
sunbeam- hope your cold ges better soon!
claresmummy- enjoy 2 weeks without the dreaded tww, hope the appt rolls around soon hun
afm- had to stay late at work last night til 2.30am!!! So tired today but have to go back to work this arvo. Why can't I just be on maternity leave, I am so sick of working!!
Hi ladies hope you're all ok sunbeam how you doing? Saffy did af leave the building?
Afm well day 24 and my boobies are so damn sore can't stand them touched my 3yr old wanted a cuddle but the pain was dreadful got bfn this morning so why they hurt? Oh well looking forward to the headache that will follow shortly not!
enjoy your weekend keep warm!
sunbeam: hope you are feeling better and will ovulate soon
crafty: fingers crossed you have sore boobs from high progesterone and there is a bfp for you on the way
saffy: where are you at in your cycle ? was the new medication ok for you ?
afm: im a bit up and down (well maybe that should be so so and down), i started clomid yesterday and im hoping for an early ovulation again. im trying to remember the latest 2 lucky girls who left this thread were over 40 so there is still hope for us all, we just need that one lucky cycle !
i have this really strange pain that i have never had before, its hard to describe, its from my lower back and also from above my uterus, its like a really painful pins and needles thing that spreads up my torso right up to under my boobs. im wondering if it is some late side effect from the hycosy as i think that is the space the fluid would have gone into ? (but should be long gone), anyone have any clue as to what it is ?
minnie- not sure about that sounds wierd (and painful). I always think about the over 40s getting utd, its very encouraging!
crafty-sounds good with big boobies- hope its a good sign!
hi everyone else, I have to go DH has cooked dinner and its ready!
afm quickly, getting an US tomorrow to check lining and follicle, I must be CD11, got some ewcm today, hope thats a good sign. Will start opks soon, transfer in the next week or so FX
Minnie ~ sorry about your BFN, this is the cycle for you! Could the pain be a strong O'ing? Hope so.
Saffy ~ Thanks for asking, I'm hoping to talk to my nurse today about our faint pos and book in for Sept IVF. GL to you with your cycle, for great transfer and a BFP for you!
Clairesmummy ~ hope the break gets you nice and ready for your next official try, all the best!
Crafty ~ hope it was just too early for HCG to show up yet,
Hi to anyone I may have missed - for all of us!
AFM ~ have had a busy couple of weekends which has been great as its kept my mind off TTC for a bit - a nice break. The funerals not so good but had a great QB'day long weekend and then my families charity ball this weekend and my step-dads 60th - both fantastic nights. Starting with accupuncture again soon and DH is also going to try it, after he got his tattoo I said if he can handle that he should be able to handle accu
Hello ladies
Have a good day, stay warm and dry (if in Victoria)!
Spoke to IVF nurse yestie and she said I could have got a blood test referral from them - when I got my last natural BFP - so now I know if it happens again I can get a BT done.
Also booked in and have dates for IVF in September YAY
Hi all Loops roll on sept and fx for a BFP by oct for you !
saffy how did your scan go ?
sunbeam your very quiet what you up to ?
minnie mouse not too long now your bfp is coming and I have had 2 babies in my 40s and 1 mc so it can happen and now im praying it can happen over 45 lol
afm no more sore boobies so expecting a headache any time soon as AF is due tomorow oh well there is always next month and the next but I get the feeling my time is up !
did anyone see the tv on sun eve on the saragates in india ? not sure how I feel about that as those poor women just lieing there waiting to give birth and there DHs saying they will do it again for the chance to own a house !!
would however consider getting myself a donor egg but guess im too old for that too !
crafty- I was going ot ask about the boobies but it seems they are gone, boo for af
sunbeam- hows the new job?
minnie- good luck for clomid
claresmummy- you should be having your appt next week?
loops- thats good you can get BT done with the clinic
matthewsmum- how are you going?
afm- scan went well, i've got a follie thats 18mm so doing opks but no positive yet. Lining was a bit thin ( 6mm) but got in an acupuncture yesterday to boost it. Old clinic is still giving me the run around with child protection checks etc but I've made my new clinic deal with it now as I am sick of ringing them. I just went outside and it is freezing!!!! Have a good day everyone x
Crafty ~ ohh I hope its not the end of the road for you,
Can always give the donor thing a go - its another option to try and you just never know. Thanks for your wishes xo
Saff ~ glad your scan went well. Sorry your having to put up with crap from your old clinic.
saffy: good news about the 18mm follicle, hope you get a positive opt soon, i assume they will go ahead with the cycle despite the child protection checks drama ? how is your UTI ? (hope thats ok to mention in here cause it was mentioned in another thread)
crafty: any update from you, i hope af is staying away
sunbeam: i hope things and going along well for you
matthewsmum: where are you up to ?
loops: good news that you can just go and get a blood test from your clinic, and yay for booking in for ivf, hope you get your natural bfp before then ! you must be close to ovulation time now ?
clairesmummy: not long until your appointment, remember don't be nervous, you tell them what you want to do !
afm: nothing much happening here, finished clomid last night and hoping for an early ovulation this month and we will be more prepared this time !
I'm having a woe-is-me morning.
Rang the clinic this morning cos i have only had faint lines on OPK and today no line at all, the nurse thinks I might have missed my O, just had a blood test to confirm. If I haven't O'd thats ok, just need blood tests daily but if I had my cycle is cancelled . I can't handle a cancelled cycle, I'm so depressed.
(sorry for the me post)
