Hey Minnie, good luck with the next 11-12 days darl, FX for you...... And Craftymummy to is in here as well.
My appointment has been made with another DR this time he is a FS my appointment is next month on the 18th at 10am. DF and i are off to have our BT next week when he has his days off from work. Did an OPT today and it's neg. today is CD10 for me and I have a small amount of EWCM. Maybe I will O when I am meant to instead of CD20, FX.
Clairesmummy - Good on you for picking yourself back up and booking in with the FS I think it is your smartest move. Lets hope he has the answers. I'm glad we were able to support you sweetie that's what BB is all about
Saffy - Bring on AF and a brand new cycle.
Minniemouse - Yes we are a small group but a very special one
AFM- Still trying to get on top of my work doing 2 jobs. At least most of the time it keeps my mind off the TWW, the rest of the time.... !!! I won't be testing till saturday, how about my TWW buddies?
P.S. Big thank you to our moderating/admin team gals.
sunbeam- wow, can't believe your tww has been so busy and preoccupying!! Good luck when you test, any symptoms?? You must be tired doing two jobs, hopefully it will settle down for you soon.
minniemouse-5dpo is good for sore boobs but as we both know it doesn't guarentee anything, hope your tww ends in a nice surprise!
claresmummy- I hope you O soon too, stuff waiting til CD20! Your appt will come around soon, and surely you will come out of it happier than the last one- hugs xx
hi everyone else
afm- still spotting no sign yet of AF but I am sure she is coming, so I don't care if it takes a few days.
I had a crisis of confidence over the weekend with my ttc. I decided to try to come to terms with the fact that it may never work and I may not have a baby, and i found when I put an end date to ivf, I felt so much better. I was thinking that my end may be turnng 40 and/or transferring my 3 frosties then doing one more stim cycle and calling it quits. I have felt so much better since I decided this in my mind ( haven't told DH yet), but i just want my life back, I am sick of always feeling depressed and upset all the time, and the thought of having a life without a baby now doesn't scare me as much as it did. I'm not saying I'm giving up on ivf or ttc, but I can't keep doing it forever and need to know theres an end date when I can get my life ( and money) back. Phew got that off my chest, probably should have put it in the ttc vent thread but its here, and we are only a small group anyway!! Thanks for listening!
saffy: big to you, this journey is so hard, i think it is a good idea to have an end date if it helps you, it does become all consuming, i can't imagine how hard it is for you. im lucky i already have 2 children and i feel greedy wanting another when some of you girls haven't gotten your first.
the thing about the "end date" is it isn't set in stone and if you get to that point you can always choose to continue if you want to
it does rule your life, i have everything crossed for you that you don't reach that deadline because you are holding that much wanted bundle (or bundles) in your arms by then
sunbeam: good to hear you are keeping busy in the 2ww, i hope it continues that way, im thinking of testing sat too (my birthday) but im only 10 dpo then so don't know if i should (will either ruin my birthday or make it !), i will try and hold out but i know the reality is i won't be able to, how many dpo will you be sat ?
clairesmummy: i hope those opt's turn positive for you, as you know im pleased you have made a fs appointment and i hope it brings good news
Hi Ladies glad I found you all on the new thread
Not too many of us in here but as long as we keep each other going thats enough !
saffy so sorry youve been having a downer its those nasty hormones I think as that was me last week LOL but I do feel a lot better this week so hopefully you will next week !
Its so hard to put a final date on TTC but on the bright side I found myself in your shoes 20yrs ago struggling to have my 2nd with IUI and donor sperm, I told myself one more go and low and behold I did get a BFP ! and 3 yrs later thinking thats it for me as my DHs sperm was not very good I found myself with a natural BFP with my DHs not so good sperm !!!! so you never know even when you decided ivf is finished if you don't use contraception there are always miracles happening !!!
Clairesmummy sorry your fs apt was not as you hoped I had the same thing last year but I survived and I have not give up hope and neither should you thinking positive is the key !!!
Sunbeam have your sl**ty eggs accepted your new donor then ???? whoo hoo can't wait to find out ( for those who don't know thats what sunbeam called her own eggs many many cycles ago !!! )
Matthews mum are you still around not heard anything in ages how you doing ?
Loops sorry it was quiet at the weekend I am usually able to get on the pc but this weekend was too busy !!!
AFM well day 13 and DH has been keeping an eye on the days too so thats a bonus and busy DTD and praying for my chance at a BFP (got negative result on opk yesterday but with my body it doesn't always work well with opks )
oh well a few more days I will be in the TWW AGAIN I THINK !!!
Saffy- I'm glad you are feeling better with the idea of having an end date for TTC. I did this a while ago, before I got my new donor, and it did give me a sense of control over the whole things that has had so much control over my life for so long. I hope neither of us have to face life without a bub in the end.
Minniemouse - 10dpo is good because if it is positive it will be a great birthday pressie and if it is negative you can just tell yourself it is too early to know . I will be 11dpo on saturday. I know it is early but I am c@%p at waiting! My old housemate and her partner will be testing saturday too.
Crafty - That is so funny you mentioned my sl%$y eggs. I had forgotten about that until just the other day (when I was, quite stupidly, trying to do a positives and negatives list of whether it'd be likely that I'll be UTD!! TWW madness, I'm sure it's a diagnosable disorder by now!) I'm glad you are ready to join the TWW madness group and that DH is doing his part in keeping up with what cd you are up too, what a good boy
AFM - I don't trust any symptoms anymore after too many months feeling UTD and not being. The prog just plays tricks the whole time so there is not any point even guessing. All I can do is hope my sl^%y eggies liked their new friends. Realised today it is over a year now since I last fell pg. Total aside, I LOVE Big Bang Theory it puts a smile on my face every day.
Hi Lovely Ladies
I nearly missed the new thread - glad I found you guys
Ive been MIA for a few days because I actually have tonsillitis - it has been absolutely horrid, can't even swallow hot or solid foods
So I really dont think I'll be getting a BFP this month! I'm thinking I'm not gunna worry about it too much and wont test until after AF due.
Saff ~ what you said - I can totally get - I read it and thought, yep thats the way I am starting to feel. Which shocks me a little because ever since I was little I always knew I wanted lots of kids but I have two beautiful nieces that I love and adore and another niece or nephew on the way so I think I can be happy with them and just to have a stress free life from TTC would be good, with less financial strain. Obviously I have a few yrs ahead of me so it may be easy for me to say this now but I think its because we've already done so much and stressed so much and I don't think I could take too much more to be honest. In a way when we do stop (whether thats because we get a miracle or not), it will be such a huge weight off our shoulders.
Clairesmuumy ~ any time hon, we are all here to support one another and I wouldnt get by without you either. So pleased you were able to move forward and organise another FS, must be hard living in such a remote area - I think Gippsland is hard enough as always for you!!
GL with the O'ing ladies - hope you all catch the eggies!!
