Ladies ~ July will come around before you know it, just focus on other things (well try if you can), thats what I try and do - stay busy. To offer some condolence - I've now been waiting 6months since our last cycle for money and to get through all the other challenges life has thrown at us and still dont know if we'll be able to afford a cycle in July which will probably mean we may not be able to do one till Sept or something silly like that. But I know things happen in the mean time which distract me and eventually that time will come around for us to have another shot.
Goodluck ladies - hope AF comes very soon!
I also found out recently that once you have applied in Victoria for local adoption and waiting for a child you cannot undertake any Assisted Conception so that means we wont be applying just yet - we want to have another few goes at IVF first if we can.
At times my heart aches and other times I try to be happy and enjoy what I have
Hi girls hope you all doing well..
Im back for round 9 of IVF started jabs yesterday so praying for a little miracle to occur this time..
Unfortunately it has come at a really horrible time as my bestfriends Mum is dying in hospital from cancer so hard to get excited about it at moment!
n2l great news ill say a little prayer for your little embie x
Loops, Happybaby, tantee and anyone ive missed hi and hope all is going along ok x
Hi ladies,
happybaby- what a bugger AF is taking so long. My AF stayed away after D&C for about 2 months and I eventually took primolut to induce it. I hope she arrives soon.
n2l: woohoo for your little embie! I hope you had your transfer today and it went well. It only takes one as they say! FX for you hun.
tantee: I hope the councellor helps and that you can work around your interesting results. hugs.
loops: thanks for the welcome back. How odd about not being able to go on the adoption lists whilst on assisted conception. I was just watching this show about a couple in the US and the were on the adoption list and it was taking too long so they opted for a surrogate mother and then had two babies within weeks of each other because they both came through! GL with your assisted cycles for now though.
blossom: Good luck for round 9. I'm sorry to hear about your friends mum Cancer is a horrible thing.
Saffy: I could test yesterday, but I waited untill today. Oddly enough I had to go and get a BT on Monday anyway to check for HCG and progestrone anyway, so...
it's a tentative BFP for me! My HCG was quite low, although within normal range, but I'm just taking it as it comes. I go for another BT tomorrow, so hopefully if hcg is doubling...I might actually be able to whisper the p word to myself. I just wish I had my innocence back and had the confidence things would be fine!
becnxavi ~ getting excited for you! But I also understand your hesitation to get too excited. Sounds like you have your head in control though which is great. Fx'd very tight
They say you can't do assited because they want to know you are serious about adoption. I think that makes sense and can understand that. Ive heard of people getting PG just after receiving an adopted child. Whatever way I just hope im not waiting too much longer to have a child in my arms that I can call mine
Goodluck ladies and all the best. HOPE everyone is well xoxo
Just sticking my ugly head in to say hi to everyone
4dp2dt for me...Waiting, waiting, waiting....
Had my first pregnyl injection on Friday night. Felt a little nauseous yesterday and a bit of a stretching feeling in the uterus. My boobs are heavy and sore too.
I know these are side effects, not symptoms.
I think if this one doesnt work I may have a month, maybe two off. Depending on what the FS thinks.
hi N2L
I'm really hoping and praying for you!!!!
I'm still around but as i have to wait til next cycle to give it another go, im not really doing anything atm... just waiting for AF, this is one of those times you wish she would come =) but i got about 3 weeks to wait.
lots of vibes to everyone!
N2L - hoping so much that this will be the one for you
I will be lurking but not posting too much. I severed my tendons, nerves and arteries on 2 fingers on my right hand this week which ended in surgery so am pretty much useless at the moment and for the next 2-3 months, although I will be checking in on everyone's progress and waiting for news of bfps with baited breath.
I will not be starting fet this month as planned and to tell you the truth, I have run out of steam. Not sure what will happen as I have 5 little frosties waiting but no desire to do another cycle in the near future. Am feeling a bit too sorry for myself at the mo and it is affecting not just me but DH & DD also. Sorrry for the me post and for lack of persies but typing is now a very long process!
Tantee ~ ouch!! Hope you're healing fast, must be painful At least you have 5 frosties waiting there hun, you'll probably have a better chance if you wait until your hand is better, less to worry about. for fast healing.
Tei ~ hope time is passing quickly for you and AF arrives soon!
Becnxavi ~ looks like (going by your sig) a proper congrats is in order!! Sending you loads and tonnes of stickyvibes!!
N2l ~ Hope you're surviving ok in TWW! FX'd
Kass ~ you 2 - hope TWW is ok,
Saff ~ has AF come yet, if not hope she arrives very soon for you!
AFM ~ nothing new really - going away to Bendigo Beef Expo for a week tomorrow - showing and looking after my mums cattle with her - should be fun! Also found out yestie my sis is pregnant again - yay another niece or nephew. Its hard when its other people getting pregnant but when its your family its exciting! (well I think so anyway LOL) :-)
Hi ladies,
Things are still looking good! hcg went from 27 last Monday to 147 last Thursday which FS was super happy with. I'm sorry, I forgot my sig would change in here too, I'll turn it off. I just wanted to be able to make one and enjoy it while it lasts (hopefully for 9 months...)
Congratulations Bec ~ hope those HCG levels just keep going up and up. Feel free to hang around here for support if you need it, and I'm not fussed about seeing your sig because I'm happy for you and I know it will be my time when the timing is right!
Just in case anyone is on - this is me: just O'ing now and getting bit of B'Ding in! Bought some pre-seed so giving that a try also cheap O tests and POAS's from Lullaby Conceptions.
It's been absolutely ages since I last posted but I loom from time to time to see how all is going in here and over in the LTTTC TWW thread. I hope you don't mind me dropping in to ask a question...
We were scheduled for an FET of our last remaining embryo on Wednesday but it was cancelled on Tuesday as the poor little embryo didn't make it. Yesterday I received the invoice and we had been charged the full FET cost. As there were no day surgery, FS or scientist costs incurred associated with the transfer, I was assuming we would have a reduced fee. DH rang the clinic this morning to enquire about it and was told that there was no error and the policy is to charge the full fee. I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if it's a standard practise?
Hi meg. That doesnt sound right? I have had one FET cycle cancelled, but because i didnt ovulate (not because the embryo didnt make it) and so i cancelled and did it the next month, and there was no additional charge (even though i had umpteen blood tests). It doesnt seem right they can charge you when there are costs they didnt incur? I would check again??? P.S. I am with monash. J.
Hi Meg
Im sorry I havent been in that situation before - have never had any frozen but that just sounds obsurd - god they are criminal arent they. Makes me mad
Very sorry your emby didnt make it too - hope you can try again very soon.
AFM ~ I hate it when I start looking for symptoms but Ive been really off the last few days. Had the flu last week and so it could be i'm just not feeling 100% because of that but I dont know I just feel different ill. flushed, little nauseus, headachey etc. Always get sore BB's around this time and I do so again. Wouldnt it be nice if it were a miracle has happened!! wishful thinking perhaps lol
Thanks so much for responding. It sounds dodgy, doesn't it!? DH was told that the day surgery and FS costs were sent directly to our health fund and were covered completely by them. This seems weird because a) our original cycle and two subsequent FETs were done in Queensland (with the same organisation) and nothing was covered by our health fund and b) our last FET here in Sydney with this clinic went ahead and there was no mention of additional costs covered by the health fund and no documentation to indicate that anything was paid by them.
DH has said he will call again tomorrow and try to speak with a practice manager or someone. It's so infuruating and adds insult to injury when it was our last embryo and we now need to cough up to do it all again. DH has started on the conspiracy theories. Oh dear...
Hey Loops, thanks for your thoughts. Next step for us is surgery to clean up the endo then start a new stim cycle. Hopefully the combination will do the trick.
As for looking for and then endlessly analysing symptoms, I know exactly how you feel. Even though I've been told I have less than a 1% chance of falling pregnant naturally, I still seem to imagine symptoms even when I haven't had a transfer! It's torture all this, isn't it? DH and I have decided that we will keep at this for a while longer but if (I know I should say when...) we get a baby that will be it. NEVER AGAIN!!!
