Hi ladies, I haven't been in here since BB went heywire so some catching up to do...

Dreamsinto Reality- great result! How exciting to be triggering and good luck for wednesday. It is weird not snffing or jabbing, I constantly feel like i should be doing something!!

Kass- I'm not doing anything at the moment either-just waiting for my next cycle but its good to keep up with what everyone is doing! I just saw you had a BFN for your last cycle (?chemical preg) sorry to hear that, I know what you mean since my last m/c (ages ago) i haven't even had an inkling of a preg so anything is a positive sign I guess. Hope you are back on track soon xx

Fatgirlslim- hope AF has arrived on time so you can get going, and i hope also that the wisdom tooth is better ( or out!)

Trueblue- hi mate, hope everything is settling down on your world. Thats great news about the FET it sounds much better than a stim cycle! Did you get the coeliac results yet?? New FS sounds good too, I am going to go to a new one if I don't have anything success by the end of the year, there is a guy ( doctor) I work with who I really like and think he will suit me better than the one i have now. Bet you can't wait until your next cycle now?!

Loops- have fun at the Melbourne Show, hope the weather is a bit warmer than recently!

Hi to trishy, Terry, intheslowlane, Amy, Danigirl (whats happening with you?)

AFM- hmmm, well after my cycle was cancelled 2 wks ago we were trying naturally, last week I had spotting for 2 days (thought?implantation or earlyAF) nothing since, no pregnancy symptoms, feeling teary and stressed. My AF probably wold be due end of this week as I think I O'd on the Friday. SO, will have to wait and see. Does anyone know: if I did have implantation bleed last Wed, shouldn't I have symptoms by now? My boobs are completely soft nad not even sore.I don't want to get my hopes up ( but I have of course) cos I know I will be disappointed again

Goodluck with your EPU on wednesday and they are great results i hope you do get that many eggies!

Hi Saffy, it may have been implantation bleeding, i so hope it was for you don't be too stressed about no pg signs, back in june i fell pg with our 3rd cycle and i had started bleeding so my nurse did a BT and i was pg!! i had no signs at all not till about 12 dpt i started to get sore nipples and i actually realised i had the clearest face skin i think iv had since before puberty lol but sadly the bleeding continued and i lost our angel at 5 weeks and as soon as the bleeding did get heavier (which would have been the miscariage) the sore boobs went and i got pimples! so sometimes we just dont know we are pg!

AFM, i rang the nurse for mine and DH's BT results today but she said some still arn't in and they need to look over them and i will find out the results of some of them tomorrow. I think they will be ok im more worried about the DNA frag results, DH and i talked more about us using a sperm donor last night just incase the results are bad, he said he will do it if its what i want, but hoping we wont need one

I hope everyone elso is doing ok xxx

Hi ladies,

I'm just dropping in to say hi again. I've been catching up on the latest with you guys but haven't posted for a while in this thread. I've been on a kind of break - waiting for hormones to settle down so I can have some testing done. I'll be back here a bit more for 'real' business when I start my next IVF cycle next month. And this IS going to be THE ONE I'm looking forward to cycling with some of you! Seeyas

Hey All...

OneDay - I have everything crossed for you! it. will. be. ok.

Kaybee - when next month are you staring your cycle? Loops and I are also starting end of this month and beginning of next month - so hopefully there'll be a few BFP's around at the end of next month!

AFM - I am just plodding along - wisdom tooth has settled down significantly, and I think no longer poses a threat to my baby-making success! Still waiting for AF - I havent been as vigilant in charting these last couple of months - but I know she's due between now and the 30th. I have a killer sore lower back - which hopefully means it's sooner rather than later - or maybe that was all the mopping up i did yesterday? meh.

Things are FLOODING back to me now... I guess IVF is similar to childbirth - where supposedly, everything is forgotten once you've got a baby in your arms - or in my case - IVF is forgotten after 8 months of agony and heartache.... I completely forgot about all the blood tests & scans... and obsessing about the size and how many follies you have on each ovary... the "Oh my god I need to make sure I am home by 9pm - how is hubby going to give me my shots when we're THERE?' - am I going to lose the plot? so many things that I just completely forgot about !

Anyway. rant over! Good luck to all the scanners, waiters and waiting-to-implanters...

L xx

Hi ladies
Good luck for your pickup tomorrow Dreams - 10 - 12 sounds like a good result

Saffy - fx it was implantation. I know what you mean about getting hopes up - I don't think it's possible to switch that off!

Oneday - fx for your results

fatgirlslim - glad your teeth are behaving!

Hi to everyone else.

I just got back from my gp. Had a little meltdown after a simple 'how's the ivf going?'. Arrgh - I thought I was fine but the tears just started welling up. 5 minutes later I was fine again. I was so embarrassed - I haven't had a public cry in a looong time.
