Thank you all for your lovely kind words and support in here once again, it never truly stops amazing me how much support you all are so willing to give to me, all you ladies are just wonderful and I have everything crossed that we all have long awaited BFPs and sticky bubs real soon.
SunBeam~ Wishing you all the very best of luck for Monday darl, FX all goes really well for you. I will be thinking of you and sending you tonnes of BFP and sticky vibes darl. Hope you get rid of that flue soon also, I have had the darn thing now for about 4 weeks it's not fun at all.
Saffy~ Hope you cycle is behaving itself now for you darl.
Minnie~ How you going today darl? Hope all is really well with you.
MathewsMum~ Sorry for the BFN darl sending you lots of cyber hugs your way day. Donor egg sounds promising though if that's what you choose to do. Hope you are feeling ok today, thinking of you.
AFM~ Nothing to report really, today I am 9-10DPO not 100% sure if I O'd day 15 or 16 this cycle had my + OPT on day 15 in the morning and bad cramping in the evening. Whether I am 9 or 10DPO it's been along time since I have gone this far into my LP with no sign of AF yet. I had a BT on Wednesday which would of been 7-8DPO GP was doing a full hormone check and I get the results from that on Monday Morning. I now have 4.5weeks until I see my new OB/GYN getting nervous already but also a little excited. Well that's enough about me for now, hope you are all having a wonderful Friday and not freezing like I am.
Hi all
sorry bfn matthewsmum but don't give up just have a month off and try to relax and go natural you never know !
sunbeam hope it all goes well and glad donor daddy woke up maybe its a good thing and he will be more committed now ! fx your bfp is around the corner !
clairesmummy not long till your gyn apt maybe your bfp will be here before then anyway !!!
saffy thinking of you and all you have to go through but with a BFP at the end it will be worth it !
AFM well day 2 as AF arrived yesterday but I guess I should be greatful for a regular 28day cycle and ready to try again and again for as long as it takes to get my BFP. I have a friend on another thread who is 47 and got a BFP this week so its given me a big boost she also revealed the vitamins and vitex she took so I am giving it a go and DH is fully ready taking zinc and spermax and he says we will get it right soon and I beleive him so watch this space !!!!
hi everyone,craftymummy-i'll be watching,as always,hope this is your month...sunbeam-all the best for monday...clairesmummy-hope your results come back good,meeting new dr's can be nerve-wrecking,but needed sometimes...minniemouse-what did fs say about your results?...saffy-was acupuncturist able to help?...afm-reality hit hard yesterday,matthew's due date came around for the third time,we put some white roses & balloon on his grave...Some family & friends are very negative about me going down donor road,dh is fine with it,he just wants me to be better(man of very few words),i don't know what way i want to go.Got an appointment with fs next week ,going to ask about assisting hatching & ask some ?? about donor cycle.Dont know if i'd be able to start while i have 3 frozen embies in storage,still want to give them a go.
MM~ Sending you some massive cyber hugs hun, hoping and praying for great things to come your way soon darl. FX for a great FS appointment for you.
AFM~ Well today is CD1 for me, had an LP of a whole 9 days woohoo for me.......not...lol..... Not really that upset by it I have come to expect AF every month now but this cycle was only 25days instead of 28 like normal guess AF arrived early as I O'd early this cycle but my LP has not changes at all. Oh well TTC is now on hold until after I see our new OB/GYN at the end of June. Good luck to everyone else I will be stalking you all,
Firstly, sunbeam for your transfer today, hope it all goes smoothly and your tww isn't torturous (as if!)
claresmummy- what a disappointment, sorry af has arrived and also sorry your LP hasn't improved, so frustrating!
matthewsmum- your DH sounds sweet. As for the donor, I would seriously consider it if I were you, everyone else can be negative but they are not in your situation and have understanding about it. I'm glad you have some embies in the freezer as you don't have to decide right now but its good to know someone has offered if you decide to go down that path. Hugs to you xx
craftymummy- glad you ( and DH) have your mojo back!
minniemouse- I hope the appt with the specialist went ok, thinking of you xx
afm- went to acupuncturist today to try and bring AF on, can't beleive it actually works- I have been having cramps ever since, hopefully I will get my timing right with af and be able to start my fet soon. Had a big weekend with a few parties, and still recovering!
Babydust to everyone x
sunbeam: good luck today. sorry to hear your boss with mean when you were leaving but good news that you have clients you can still see to keep you going
Saffy: i hope the acupuncture works and the timing works out well for you, how strange that af should disappear on you now for no reason
clairesmummy: so sorry to hear of your short luteal phase, i think like me you need that progesterone support
matthewsmum: big decision for you, i agree with saffy though, its your life, i would ignore other peoples opinions and go with what you and dh want
afm: saw the specialist last wednesday, all test results came back fine and dh sperm test got him a gold star. my prolactin level is now 33 (from 1857 !) & is classed as low now. yesterday i started getting lots of ewcm and sore nipples which i get a few days before ovulation but as i was day 14 didn't believe what my body was showing me, today i did an opt and it is positive, i nearly fell over when i saw it, last cycle was day 45 !! and this looks like day 16 or 17. the annoying thing is i have been so sick we haven't been dtd but will start tonight and hope we get a few goes in.
i am so relieved it looks like it will happen early this cycle, the wait to ovulate really does my head in. this is a natural cycle so will see what happens, after this i have 3 more goes of clomid, the specialist decided the time i was on it didn't really count because my high prolactin would have been interfering with it working well. im happy to try that for a few more goes
Saffy - That's awesome that acupuncture may be kick starting AF, about time, what cd are you up to now? Bring on the FET and new FS Glad you are getting some partying in first, I did too
Clairesmummy - Were you on prog. support for your LP or was that someone else? I hope the time goes quick and the new Ob has some practical answers for you.
Mathew'smum - I'm sorry all this has hit right around Mathews' due date, sometimes it is just too much to bear. I'm with the girls though it is your life and your family and no ones opinion matters except you and DH. My bestie offered her eggs if I needed them and i would have had no hesitation at all, it would have been a sweet blessing.
Minniemouse - Your cycles are so like mine! Some go on for ever and a good cycles sees me O'ing cd17. Looks like we'll be TTW buddies I hope the cold eases up.
AFM - Thank you for all the good wishes. I am PUPO with one little embie. The first one they defrosted didn't make it but the second was good. I had acupuncture before and right after. Bit freaky, I arrived at the acupuncturist and there in the waiting room was the psychic I saw about 2 months ago and a woman going for transfer at the same clinic as me just an hour earlier! I have been in bed for the rest of the day and plan on staying here for most of tues and wed. I still have one little day 6 embie left in the freezer feels a bit sad he's all alone now! I kind of wish I'd got to use them all up as I don't think I will have another go after this which ever way it goes.
sunbeam: yay for your little embie, snuggle in tight little one ! we will be 2ww buddies it seems, looks like im ovulating tonight, i can't believe it is happening so early, i so wasn't prepared, we will probably only get 2 goes of dtd in. this will go down as the earliest i have ovulated in my life !
just a quick update, i ovulated last night, day 15 !! talk about taking a girl by surprise ! we dtd last night then i felt ovulation in the hours following that, i had hoped to have a few goes before ovulation by wasn't meant to be it seems, i hope we are in with a chance, will dtd tonight then start progesterone tomorrow
Sunbeam~ I haven't been on any progesterone support as yet not sure if my new FS will put me on it to try or not. The only thing my last FS gave me was Clomid and a few ultra sounds that was it no BT nothing.
AFM~ Finally got my BT results only cause I had to ring them and get them after travelling the 40 minutes into town yesterday to pick them as per GPs request they couldn't give them to me yesterday as there was no Nurse on, I was not happy so they took my ph number and was meant to ring me this morning with results and still nothing so I rang them this afternoon and here are my results. BT was a mid cycle test. Progesterone- 50
Estrogen- 230
Luteinizing Hormone- under 2
Prolactin - 4.
These tests were taken 7 days after ovulation and AF turned up 2.5 days later giving me a LP of 9 days.
Any advice good or bad will be appreciated as I have no idea what the results should be but one thing I do know for sure is that I can't ever seem to fall pregnant with out Clomid and even when I did fall pregnant on Clomid I still had a MC.
Sunbeam - Thinking of you and your little embie. I am praying this one works out for you and donor Dad.
Claire's Mummy - Are they going to put you on low dose aspirin when you conceive this time? I lost 4 babies before this one (I'm currently 21 weeks) and the difference this time was progesterone for the first 6 weeks and low dose aspirin for 36 weeks. I don't know about the progesterone but my FS was amendment he wanted me to stick with the aspirin.
India's Mum ~ I have no idea what they are going to do with me this time darl, I am going to see a new OB/GYN at the end of June as my last one was very vague and didn't do much at all with me. If you don't mind me asking what is the Low dose Asprin for? I guess I'm feeling like a total lost cause at the moment, every time I seem to have any type of testing for my TTC and MC problems everything keeps coming back that there is nothing wrong with me, it's all starting to drive me insane. I have no idea really what my levels should be so Im about to go and google it. Good luck with your pregnancy darl I hope it all goes well for you and you are holding your beautiful little bundle in another 19 weeks if I have my sums right on the timing for you.
Sunbeam~ Good luck with your 2WW darl, thinking of you and your little embie darl, sending you truck loads of sticky vibes.
Claire's Mummy - My tests all came back normal too. The theory behind low dose aspirin is that if your blood is a tiny bit too thick then your baby is unable to absorb the correct nutrients at the early stages before the placenta takes over. The aspirin thins the blood. I know of a couple of other people who also had unexplained losses that had success after the aspirin. Ask your FS about it. If he doesn't feel you need it, ask if it would be alright if you took it for the first 12 weeks anyway (that's the usual length of time people are advised to take it). good luck sweetie.
Thank you for that India's Mum, I will write that down and ask my new FS about it when I have my appointment darl. Thank you again and big belly rubs to you.
clairesmummy: actually my fs also has me on aspirin even though my results were all normal, she thought it was really important, worth asking about.
just wanted to tell you girls that clairesmummy and i are friends off the list so if we don't mention each other in our personals its only because we probably already know about the news/update etc offline and not that we are ignoring each other
Hi all
sunbeam FX this little embie is going to stick and a BFP on here soon !
Indias mum wow 21wks already thanks for the good wishes think I will get some asprin too as I have mc 5 times in all but in between births so you never know when did you start taking it ?
minniemouse and clairesmummy FX your BFPs willl be sooner than later and yay for a normal cycle minnie mouse it sucks to have a long one I used to be like that but seem to have settled back into my 28days but it sure did take ages after my mc in sept 09 but at least its back now and at 46 I guess I should be happy to be so regular !!!!
