sorry Dani:hug:
Hey ladies,
I'm still sitting around waiting to get started (in about 3 more weeks) but can't help dropping in here to feel like part of the action.
Dannigirl - that sucks - hope you're dealing ok with your awful results. It's so hard when you go through so much just to get pg and it still doesn't happen. Definitely go for your BT though!
Fatgirlslim - love the feeling that things are about to start happening. I have so many of those bloody green cooler bags now (one from each cycle) - after 4 frozen cycles, it's all I have to show. I'm sure you'll end up with a lot more than that!
Loops - have an awesome time at the show. I love how much stuff you always have going on. Wish I could keep myself that busy (might keep my mind off things)
Kass - oh no - the public cry! Hope it made you feel better at least. My GP is really down-to-earth and nice too and asks me how I'm going in a way that makes me think she does actually care.
OK, gotta go. Seeyas :bluedust: to all
Hi ladies,
Kaybee:It won't be long til you get started. Good luck and I hope this cycle is the one for you.
Fatgirlism: Thanks hon. I think I will have a wine or two this week end! Good luck to you..hope AF comes soon!! Don't you just hate waiting!!?
Saffy: Thanks for your positive thoughts hon. Hope all is going well for you.
Oneday: Thank you for your kind words...you are right..i think you kind of half expect it to work first time and it's such a long build up to it on all the meds etc so when it's negative it hits sooo hard.
AFM: I reluctantly went along to my blood test this morning so should have results after 2pm today. We all know what the results will be but at least I'll know for sure. The nurse said if it's negative I will have to wait a whole month til my next period comes before I can transfer my next embie. That month is going to feel like years!!! I'm really down about it all but I think it can only get easier. Plus my natural cycles are very irregular so nurse said if it hasn't come in 6 weeks, to call them and they will give me drugs to bring it on. I wonder if I can just go on the pill for this month so I know my period will come on time? Maybe my body needs a break from hormones though?? I'll ask the nurse when she calls.
Thanks again for everyone's support through this difficult time. It's even harder for me coz literally every single girlfriend of mine is either pregnant or has a baby..in fact my best friend just told me she is 4 weeks pregnant!!! If this cycle had have worked for me we would have been be due around the same time. It really sux :(
Anyway enough venting, have a lovely week end girls xxx
Sorry this is a me post.
1st time in ages I have managed to get on here without using my mobile.
FS rang me while I was at playgroup. I asked about a 2 day transfer, he basically said that it doesnt mean I would get the best egg, but if I wanted to he would do it. But he did actually say he prefer me to wait for day 5, and start up a bit of a speach about women over 40 expect a miracle and then think that day 2 will be the answer.
So basically I am unsure what to do know, of course I need to speak to DP tonight. But I dont know. Whats peoples thoughts? All my embryos make it to day 2, so I would have spares. Just dont know to keep trying day 5 or get some spares for FET
Hey danni im sorry your feeling so down but its only natural! after my STIM/first cycle i had to have a month off as i had to see my FD again to discuss the frozen cycles and for him to sign the papers but i think it was also to have a break from the meds. I know it seems like a long time but it does go quickly and trust me it is the best thing for your emotions and physically beacuse you do end up burning out. Im now on a 4 month break before we start our next STIM and i thought i would hate the break but its been good for DH and i to just be a couple again for a while. And the topic on other ppl being pg, don't worry sweets because im right there with you and know how hard it is, just like all the other ladies on here. At work there is 3 pg girls and all the other ones have children, my sister is pg and my sister in law just had a baby, the pain is always there that i wish it was me too but you know what one day it will be us we just have to believe and keep that hope xx
Trishy- thats a tough one but if you follow your heart it will be the right decision, my clinic only use 5 day blasties and iv always thought that its a better embie at day 5 but iv heard lots of success stories about day 2 and 3 embies, goodluck and im sure it will all work out xx
Thanks Oneday, I'm just struggling with the whole thing at the moment. I only have managed to get one last time and 2 on the 1st cycle to day 5. When I start with 5 or 6.
I am just trying to process the whole thing as possible this is my 2nd last stim cycle and if I had frosties at least I could have a few goes next year. You just wonder is it because days 5s are best or is it the others dont like being in the dish and would work in me. IYKWIM
Hey ladies,
Fatgirlslim - I jusr re-read my post from last night and realised my comment about the green cooler bags could be read really differently to how I intended it (I was very tired). When I said 'I'm sure you'll end up with a lot more than that' i didn't mean more bags I meant that you'll end up with a baby. Phew, sorry!
Trishy - what a tough one. I'm sure everyone will have their own ideas about what's best. I can see what you mean - you would have more to 'play' with if you did a 2 or 3 day transfer, but then on the other hand if you transfer one of the ones that wasn't going to work anyway.... it might be better to sort them out in a dish over a couple of days rather than one each month in your belly. Ahhh, what a horrible decision. Good luck!
Danni :hug:
gday guys I feel like I have been gone for so long. Just still waiting in limbo for af so we can do our FET everyone has so much happening for them.. am hoping to see some more BFP's in here soon though seems like so long ago we had one.
Loops: Yes we think if anything the herbs wewre what boosted dh's count so I'd get dh to keep going.
Danni: So sorry chick huge hugs. OUr new FS told us that an emby/blastie has a better chanace and higher success rate if the body is allowed to do it's natural thing.
Kaybee: we have blue cooler bags lol
well i think it's time for bed off to dream of a world where babies come naturally lol big fingers crossed and hope for the best for all those waiting, jabbing, testing....
hi lovelies, hope everyone is having a good weekend!
Trueblue- I am in limbo too, AF the biatch never comes when we want her but when we don't...
Kaybee- hope the 3 weeks fly by!
trishy-:hug: i have no idea what would be best to do, but sorry you got a lecture about being over 40- rude! Its hard when there isn't a black or white answer, hopefully some of the other wise women on here can give some advice x
oneday- you are surrounded by preggies, that must be terrible. Glad you are using the break to enjoy your relationship, i need to get off the computer and do that lol
Dannigirl- did you ask the nurse about going on the pill? I am still waiting for AF after my cycle got cancelled and am geting v impatient, as i still have to wait another month then til i can start again, it seems like all we do is wait. Hope you are doing ok x
Hi to JBS, Kass, Fatgirlslim, Loops
AFM- waiting for AF, am almost 100% sure I'm not UTD so why won't she just bloody come, so my next cycle can start soon, grrrrr. I am going to ring the clinic Monday and see what they say, that will be 3 weeks since stopping the meds. Hope the weeknd is going well for everyone xx
still not 100% sure what to do but thanks just for your kinda words and support.
Hey All -
Just thought I'd poke my head in and say 'hi'...
I am STILL waiting for AF... it's doing my head in - I am feeling tired, irritable, crampy, sore back.... but no AF... !!!!!! GRMPH!!!!
Hurry up already!
L xx
Fatgirlslim-
I'm with you and feel exactly the same!
Also- I am hanging out for a drink but don't dare have one until AF arrives...
is there any chance you are UTD? I'm sure I'm not so should just pour a glass of wine, but ...just in case...
Saffy: I'm with you I stopped the meds at the same time as you..and still no AF..my body normally runs like clock work and it it doing my head in to :wall:
Quick question though...why do we have to wait for AF after failed cycle if they plan to shut our systems down anyway????????..hope someone can answer this question
Springlola- I'm doing an antagonist cycle next time (you don't get your system shut down I think) but also have to have a month break ( after this af arrives,) so I guess they try and get you back to normal? Not sure really.
Its frustrating.
I just got a verrrry faint second line on a HPT but don't feel UTD at all so I m going to get a BT from the clinic hopefully, maybe I have a chemical pregnancy??, I wish my body would just do something right for once, grrrrrr.
I hope your AF comes soon, and your next cycle comes quickly xx
SpringLola - I think it has something to do with your hormones flatlining or something obsurd like that... I remember hearing someone else talk about it before. Hope that helps? Apparently if AF is late or hasn't arrived, you can still go in for a BT and if your e (?!) levels are low enough - you can start anyway... don't quote me on that.
Saffy - faint line!?! oohhwwweee. Good luck with your BT! Maybe your body IS doing something right?! Great self-control re the wine - I downed half a bottle yesterday arvo with my hubby.
I was sooooo clooose to POAS this morning - I had it out, unwrapped and everything. But then I stopped myself - because I didn't wanna go to work super-depressed... because it's sooooo unlikely, and regardless of how I KNOW the result... seeing that lonely one line really gets to me...
So, still waiting... going insane slowly...
L x
Hi everyone
Springlola - I think my fs has said that it's to allow the lining to build up properly - the first month after transfer it can be a bit thin? I could be wrong - I'm not sure that I'm remembering correctly. It's frustrating whatever the reason!
Saffy - good luck with the bt!
fatgirlslim - hope you're not still waiting - how annoying!
Trishy - that's a hard decision. Will you be putting back one or two? 5 days are meant to be stronger than two but if you were having more than one transferred at a time then maybe this would compensate?
I've been reading lots of stuff about diet lately and was wondering if anyone knew anything about soy having a negative effect on sperm?
Have a good week everyone!
springlola I thought it was to do with the lining and (i cant remember the name my nurse used, but some chemical/hormone is still active).
Staffy good luck with your bt Fx'd
fatgirlslim, yes I get annoyed waiting for AF too. Its like a mega bordem.
Sorry Kass havent heard about the soy having an affect on sperm. My 1st cycle we put 2 day 5s back. I think i will wait to day 5 again and if needed do a 2 day transfer in Dec. just have to find out what docts are around that month. We are happy to put 2 back, but would probable freak out if we have twins.
Hi Gals...
Trishy - We were also thinking about putting 2 embies back this time around as we had NONE make it to freeze last cycle... But like you, I am wary of the whole possibility of twins - and the complications that can come along with multiple pg's.
Kass - I remember reading somewhere recently about soy and it's effects on sperm... but unless you were vegetarian and had a mainly soy-based diet, I didn't think it was an issue? Would be interesting to look a little further into it.
Still waiting Saffy?
I am STILL waiting... it's most odd - it MUST be a psychological thing. Normally when I get AF, it comes and I get bad cramping for a day or 2 - but this time, I have no AF, but about 3-4 days of cramping, especially at night. Confused. I get ANGRY everytime I wake up and it's not happening - when normally, it's COMPLETELY vice versa.. lol...
Struggling to keep my mind off it... have to keep myself busy. Hubby organised a massage for me tonight - so that should be niccce. Probably because he's looking forward to getting the 'psycho wife' out of the house for an hour or so.
lol.
