    matthewsmum

    saffy: hope af is showing her face fully now and you can say goodbye to such a disappointing cycle

    afm: 5po today for me and my boobs are a bit sore, don't think it is anything exciting though,, im sure its just because of the progesterone

    Hi Ladies,

    Whoo new thread, bring on the BFPs.

    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.

    HI girls,

    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

    thanks girls but i have resigned myself to the fact its over, im refusing to have another scan, just can't see bub now with no heartbeat, i might have bloods next week to see if they are dropping yet, my only problem is im still on progesterone which im sure is a total waste of time, does anyone know if i will still bleed while on them ?

    sunbeam: how are you going in the 2ww ?

    saffy: will you have more bloods done ?

    loops: thanks for the thoughts any update from you ?

    sunbeam: thanks to you also i think the mind can affect us a lot more than we realise and its possible that can be a barrier to you getting pregnant, i don't know how to avoid it though after you have been through multiple loses

    saffy: thinking of you hoping things work out well for you

    Rae: i don't think we have "met" so and thanks

    craftymum: sorry your cycle is mucking you around, hopefully this time you get a strong positive opt

    joeve: thanks for your pm, i meant to reply but haven't (obviously), how are things with you ?
