am i first for the new month march/ april 2010. yipee.
hi guys, no time for personals sorry, gotta go cook some food before DH gets home, not much time, eek.
had a nice day today, still feeling relaxed. chat soon
Just a quickie from me too - the OHSS pain has subsided, but the bloating is still the same. I've been drinking LOTS of water, protein shakes and had chicken breast for every meal since yesterday morning!! Lucky for me I have understanding bosses and they let me work from home today !!
At least now with the pain gone I can go back to the nervousness and time passing that is the TWW !! Only 6 more days to go!!
loops ~ OMG!!! I can't believe you have to hold out until the 25th of March for a conclusive result. That's two weeks away. Can't you request a scan earlier or something??? I think I would go crazy waiting to find out. The TWW is hard enough.
mum-2-be ~ Glad to hear the pain has subsided. Hang in there, the TWW is within reach now!
AFM ~ The clinic called to tell me that 4 out of 5 eggs had fertlised! I was very happy to hear that. My ET is tomorrow. Depending on how the 4 embies go I might be transferring two! I had acupuncture tonight and I plan to have another session on Saturday. Then it's the TWW....
Mum-2-be ~ Im so glad the pain has gone and now you can just enjoy being PUPO! GL and FX for you
Chicken breast hey - you must be so over that!
Melttc ~ I should have a conclusive answer before my FS appointment, I'll be having more BT's and scans before that. The appointment on the 25th was booked a while ago to talk about where to if this was not successful. I should have a pretty good answer with another scan which will probably be towards the end of next week, I THINK.
4 fertilised that is great! Hope they all make it to good quality and you can put 2 back, FX and TX
phew loops I was really concerned for you to have to wait until the 25th. Even holding out until next week would do my head in...In any case I hope your next appointment gives you the answer you have been waiting for!! Goodluck till then. I have everything crossed for you.
Hi ladies, just a quick one to let you know my lap went well on Wednesday. The FS found and removed "quite a lot" of endometriosis, so I guess that takes us out of the "unexplained" category? He said there was a lot on my right ovary and a lot on my bowel, but didn't offer any other details. We need to see him again in a week or so and should get more details then. I'm a bit sore and tired, but not too bad considering. The worst part is I keep coughing and that hurts...
Loops, wow, that's been quite a rollercoaster for you the last few days. I'm keeping my for a happy ending to the story.
Juniper ~ Glad to hear the Lap went well and they cleared up the endometriosis. Be sure to rest and relax for a speedy recovery.
Hope everyone else is well...
AFM ~ ET went smootly this morning. Two little embies on board....1 embie had already divided into 5 cells with a small amount of fragmentation and the other is a bit of a slow coach having only divided into 2 when they took the photo early this morning...I guess its now onto the dreaded TWW...BT is scheduled for the 29th of March or if AF shows up first...like last time.
Oh no Miss K - big hugs sweetie, im so sorry. Thats rough!
Is it definite loss?
I know its probably not going to help at the moment but you made it that far and next time your lil one will probably go all the way. Ive read that 1 in 5 of all first pregnancies end in miscarriage. Will be thinking of you hun xoxo
Melttc ~ Well done on the two and all the best in TWW, will have everything crossed!
I am back and my next cycle is starting soon. Sorry for not visiting more often, but I just wanted to take my mind off the whole TTC thing.
I will try adn read all the posts over the weekend and catch up with everyone.
Quick thing - Mum-2-be - Drink lots of milk, and egg whites. That helps a lot. I have the OHSS in December/January, and the bloating does eventually go down!
Miss K - I am sooo sorry I really hope the next one is the one.
Loops - Hopefully you have some answers by now ...
babytruj - good luck for this cycle - this cycle will give you that BFP!! Thanks for the tip - I've been having a little bit of milk in the protein drinks, but I will try and drink more!! It's just so hard to think about eating or drinking anything!! At least the nausea and the pain has gone away!! Just the bloating remains!! How long did yours take to go down?
melttc - congratulations on the two embies being put back in!! Make sure you rest up!!
juniper76 - glad the lap went well and that you have the answer for the prolonged TTC. Hopefully the pain goes quickly for you!!
AFM - back at work today (in the office), and feeling much better, although the bloating is still the same ... Had more chicken for lunch today too!! I woke up at around 1:30am this morning with really bad shooting pains in my lower tummy and couldn't get back to sleep because of it - but took some panadol which helped after a while. My sister called me this morning and said (before I told her about the pain) that with each one of her '5' children (very fertile!), she had shooting pain that was pretty bad when the embryo was implanting- so maybe the shooting pain was the implanting (gotta think positive!!). Anyway, I find out in 5 more days!!
