Renee - I hope you feel better and when you do still play on it its the only time we get our DH's running round for us hehehehe!!! Congrats on your EPU I :pray: you have some more wonderful news tomorrow!!
Loops - I haven't yet!! I haven't left the house yet!! ooh sounds painful I hope that all goes away soon xxoo
Just popping my head in to say 'hi' - and let y'all know I am still alive!!
Will catch up on all the goss later!
L xx
hey fgs!!!!
FGS you must have read my mind.....how are you honey??
Just popping in to see how everyone is going......there is so much going on in here at the moment I don't think I could catch up if I tried!
Has been so so tough this time trying to pick myself up off the floor.....not helped by 3 of my friends announcing they are pregnant all within days of each other and my BFN :wall: But that's just the way it goes I suppose. Anyway.... the nurses at the clinic told me seeing as my AF is SO unpredictable that I should probably just launch straight into my frozen cycle so in my haze I started on the Clomid and have an appointment with FS on Thurs?? I'm still not sure if I should go through with it or not.......I don't know if I'm in a good place?? Any advice??
Well I hope wherever you are up to it is going well, :hug: to everyone, old and new.
OH and thank you so much to whoever made me a 2010 RAK recipient!! I feel very special :)
Emerald Star - I hope tomorrow is a magic day for you, a much deserved BFP.
BJ - I am so feeling where you are poor poppet! I think you should go for it IF (!!) you feel you can. You might find that having a plan for things makes me feel more in control of this completely out of control situation. Here for you regardless of what you decide :)
MelissaI -Hmmm, being around HPT's would be very stressful as they are so tempting to use. Surely you could get a BT a few days early? Hope the crying stops - crying during this process because of the stress and the horrific hormones ain't much fun!
Renee - Congrats on the embies and hope you are taking advantage of DH looking after you.
Littlegem - hope those hormones keep doing what they are supposed to!
Loops (hope you are surviving the 2ww too and that your embie is getting ready for a long, long stay)
Hi to FGS, Mum-2-be , Miss K, and anyone I have missed.
AFM - Have no real reason to (well apart from being in the 2ww of course) but feeling like crap and like I'm going to get another BFN. I have got another 4 days to go before my BT but made an appointment today with my FS for next Monday so I can start another FET next month before I have a month off then do a stim (assuming I get another BFN of course). I have two embies left but given three have so far done nothing I would prefer to have another fresh cycle to get better quality and maybe even a blasty as I only have 3 dayers. If I'm quiet for a few days I'll be back but just taking a break before I implode.
Lise - another blast from the past!! thanks for poppng in to send me your best wishes..hope all is going very well wih your pregnancy too..:hug:
Lairdoz - thanks again hon..for your support!!! :hug:
Everybody else :hello: and thankyou for your continuing support...it has been greatly appreciated!! :grouphug:
I have no personals at the moment just a me post :D ......just went and had my BT done and now i am very anxious..the day is gonna seem so long.....i am usually off work Mondays and Tuesdays, but i work every other day even weekends...i usually do all my housework and grocery shopping on Mondays and usually spend Tuesdays doing my own thing...however today i have nothing planned and i am tooo nervous to think...i am just waiting..waiting...waiting for that phone to ring with the "official results"..I will keep you posted as soon as i know.
OMG EMERALD STAR!!! I am nervous and anxious for you today also wahoo you're going to know this afternoon wahooooooooooooo!!!!
Lairdoz - Its ok to feel like that hunny we all do at some stage ttc I think its us just being prepared incase!! I hope you feel better soon the 2ww is the hardest thing ever and it really does get you down!! big hugs!!!
BJ - I say go for it!!! As I was there a few months ago I am now kicking myself from delaying and think well if I had of done it would I still be where I am now!! A break for me was actually worse than continuing as I would hope it would happen naturally.... Do what you feel is right though hunny xxoo
AFM - I have to go to work today then tomorrow and thursday off for ET wahoo bring on tomorrow morning I say.... I am a little sore today I think my ovaries aren't happy with what I put them through again hehe well guess what thats what you get when you don't wanna work on your own!!!!!

Loops - hope your TWW is treating you kindly!!
:hello: to everyone else, hope you are well!!
AFM - I did my first self injection today (the nurse did it yesterday for me). No moodiness of any other side effects (except a little bloated - but that may be all the water I'm drinking!!). I'm going in for a scan on Monday to see how its all going, and should have my EPU late next week (hopefully!!).
......still waiting.....waiting........waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
waiting waiting waiting for emeralds phone to ring :D
MissK i just realized i didnt reply to your question in previous thread.i see Dr De at qfg but having a break at the moment til after i have laparoscopy done at end of next month.
I hope everyone is doing ok.
Afm- yayyyyyy the bleeding has finally stopped.stomach just a little tender at the moment.spent yesterday doing a mountain of washing and today im starting to get DPs clothes etc sorted ready for his road trip at the weekend.friends of ours have a modified dragster and they are going to a big meet in perth the weekend of 27th and 28th so leave this weekend to drive over and back for it.so he will be gone two weeks.friend just bought a 88000 truck that they are towing the 42ft trailer with but only gets to pick truck up tomorrow so 2 days to get things done to it ready for weekend oh fun.so i know what DP will be doing nights between tomorrow and when they leave.this will be longest DP and i have been apart since we have been together.he has been away for two weeks other times but its usually to gold coast etc so i can drive to see him while he is away.mum has minor surgery thursday to get catheter put in left breast for chemo, has third session on friday and sees surgeon next friday so hopefully will get an idea of mastectomy date then as they wanted 4 chemo sessions before doing it. now i have to figure out what to do with myself while the man is gone.so far all i have planned is my tatts next friday. but yayyy to big break from cooking big dinners.hmmmmm omelettes and toasted sandwiches will probably be the extent of my cooking lol.i just cant see point of doing a huge cook just for one.weekends my girls are here i think will be girls nights (couple dvds, and trays of hot nibblies and munchies and relaxing)
OK Ladies....drum roll pleeeeeeeeese!!!

That is fantastic that you get to start the Wall of Fame off for 2010.

Wishing all you other lovely ladies the best with your cycles... let's hope EmeraldStar has started a run of BFP's after the NY dry spell!

AFM - Can I go home yet please? I am tired as today and the rain here is insane and the traffic lights out the front of my work are out also and its at a bad intersection that always has car accidents :S
:leap: EmS!
When you're ready - Pregnancy after LT TTC (don't feel you have to jump over straight away - it takes a while to get used to the idea)
Congratulations Emerald Star :dance:im so happy for you...
Em Star ~ Im so excited and :happyforyou: hun! Told you. You so deserve this. All the best for a H&H nine months. Stay positive and everything will got to plan. YAY :leap::bluecheer::cheer:
Trubabe ~ GL with everything hon, being apart etc. Keep yourself busy and enjoy. Hope everything works out for your mum too :pray:.
Mitf ~ thanks hon! No we still want and need to sell the tractor. We are not farming anymore and so dont need it plus need the money for other things. But less pressure thanks to my nan and pop. ((Hugs))
Mum-2-be ~ thanks! Im glad your 1st injection went well.
Renee ~ 7 is a great number!! GL
Miss K ~ yeh would be great if we could speed the TWW up, at least we have each other for support! GL tomorrow sweetie, you'll do well.
AFM ~ been getting some period like pains this arvo, which I heard can be good, couple of days after transfer. But it also could be the Crinone - Geez I hate the stuff. I recon its the worst part of all this.
Congratulations Em Star - that is FANTASTIC news :leap: - I hope you enjoy yourself and relax after your hard work to reach this happy and much deserved place in your life :dance::clap:
Hope everyone is having a great day and look forward to seeing lots more BFP's this month! :D
I officially hate crinone too and I have only been on it since friday!!!!!!!
Emerald Star - CONGRATULATIONS!! :dance: I can't believe how many times I checked this site today just to see how you went (my boss would kill me if he found out how much work has NOT been done!! :hide:) It's so amazing how quickly I have gotten to know everyone and get so intwined in each others lives - to the point that I found it hard to work today because I was so excited about your results!! I'm definately over the moon for you!! :leap: How did DH take the news?? Where are the details?!?!
Congratulations EmStar! Fantastic news. Wishing you a H&H nine months!
Hi again Ladies!!!
The responses are so overwhelming..again many thanks and i pray that you all get your long awaited BFP's very soon!!
Mitf - no i did not get any to freeze again...but thats ok now! :D
Mum 2 Be - you mentioned details? well firstly Beta 184 P4 488 at this point I think those numbers are pretty average..i guess...as for DH, I told him it didn't work again and he is feeling really down at the moment..i feel sorry for him..but i have to be strong..apart from you guys i have told absolutely no one!! My plan if I can hold out :shhh: is.....when my first U/S is due, i will tell DH that i have to do more tests to see why they aren't sticking and that if he could come with me for moral support..and then hopefully he will get his suprise!!!!!...then i will tell everyone else! Problem is will i last that long...hopefully i can!
Emerald Star - CONGRATULATIONS!!! :dance: I am so happy for you. I have still been lurking in this thread since my BFP in November, and have been keeping a particular eye out for you, so I am just thrilled that you finally have your long-awaited BFP. And those numbers sound great too. Here's hoping for a H&H 9 months ahead. Congrats again.
Hi to all the other gals in here too. I may not know all of you, but I know what you're going through, and my advice is to not give up. I am hoping that all of you get that BFP you are longing for.
(Special hi to Loops and Juniper... I am still hoping and praying for the both of you).
Wishes xoxo
Emerald Star - :hooray: Congratulations :leap: I am so happy for you :happyforyou:
Emerald Star - CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! So very excited for you and wishing you all the very best for a happy and healthy 9 months! I wouldn't be thinking that your figures are average either, they're better than mine were and I'm now 21 weeks! Hope to see you in the LTTTC pregnancy thread on Monday after your next results xx
Moderators.......I am so sorry..I have been searching this site on how to block my preg ticker from certain forums and i don't know how to switch it off!! HELP!! Please!!!
Sorry if i have offended anyone.
Emerald Star – when you hit ‘post reply’, look under the message box... you will see the ‘additional options box’, and the first option is 'show your signature'. If you un-tick the box on your next post it will automatically apply to all your posts. If you ever forget you can select edit post, and then go advanced and un-tick the box then.
EmS - as mitf says, you can uncheck the "Show your signature" box when posting in LT TTC areas (pg tickers are ok in "Pregnancy after" and "Parenting after" forums).
In these circumstances, mods will generally help remove sigs from recent posts in LT TTC - obviously you didn't have the ticker when you posted originally so no warnings for those.
And no, you can't switch them off for whole forums, unfortunately.
Hi ladies
Well I caved and did a POAS this morning 3.5dp 5dt and it was BFN! - I know its probably too early but I have also started to get niggling headaches. Headaches for me are a really bad sign and if it gets to migraine, I'll pretty much know im out! Im getting very worried this is not our time :wall:
Sorry for the negative.
Ohh but it is my 3rd wedding anniversary today! Pity its such a stressful time for us and we dont have any money left to do anything nice as we've spent it all on IVF
Emerald Star - that is a mighty big secret to keep - I don't know how he didn't see your happiness in your eyes!! My face cannot hide what I'm thinking - especially to my DH (for example, last friday night when we were at a restraurant and I returned from the ladies he knew straight away that I had my AF!! - I didn't even say a word!!) But never fear - your secret is safe with us ;) !! He will be thrilled!!
Loops - hang in there, it is a little early. My fingers, arms, toes and legs are crossed for you!!
Hi to everyone else!! hope all is going well!!
Loops - it is definately too early for HPT. Try and stay positive hun.... you never know the headache could just be caused by your stress levels. I was almost positive things weren't working for us last time and was stunned when they rang to advise it was positive. I am praying for you :pray: x
Loops - You know it is way too early to tell - you have some serious hormones in your body at the moment so I wouldn't be using the headaches as your indicator. There are plenty of people who will tell you that they were completely shocked they were pregnant at their BT, including some who had negative HPT's. We all know what it's like to feel negative though so I hope this passes for you :)
Thank you all so much. I will try and stay positive, you have certainly helped and are all such wonderful and caring people!:)
