    Hi All,

    I hope you are all going OK.

    Loops - bugger, this really sucks big time, just goes to show how extreme the highs and lows are and just how quickly they can change but there is always the underlining stress lurking... always. TTC just tends to swamp everything. Big hugs to you, all I can offer to you is that you are not alone in your situation which is of course may be of little comfort to you when you are feeling so crappy but sometimes it helps to know that someone else can eempathise with your predicament (and I don't think anyone who hasn't been on the LTTC journey can quite understand)

    Williever - hoping today's blood tests give you your FET date. Good luck!!

    1MorePlz - How are you finding Lite & Easy? I got my first delivery yesterday and started this morning. DH and I are both doing it. For the cost, it probably works out the same as a normal week's meals when you take into account eating out and impulsive supermarket purchases etc. Hopefully we can focus a bit on getting more healthy and losing a few kg's before our next cycle.

    Just wanted to know, can anyone tell me of the extra benefits of becoming a paid subscriber on BB?

    Also, just wanted to say again how much I appreciate that I have found such a lovely supportive bunch of ladies on BB. Let's hope 2011 is going to be our year - for all of us!!!!!!!!!!

    Morning everyone Happy St Paddy's day

    1moreplz Good luck with the weight loss. It's distressing how the kgs crept on when ttc. For me I'm either too scared to exercise or over eating to fill an empty feeling.

    N2L I hope you haven't gone crazy waiting. You're halfway now and I'm just over halfway. I stare at the calendar everyday watching it get a day closer to the 22nd. FX are crossed for a BFP for you.

    Williever Are you doing a natural FET? Good luck today, hope the BT gives you a date for your FET.

    Loops I hope you're feeling better. I'm another person that knows exactly how you feel about bding while lttc.

    Tantee I became a paid BB subscriber so I could have an avatar and also because I thought it was a site that was worth donating/subscribing to. Good luck with the weight loss.

    Kass, Saffy & JBM Best of luck for your upcoming new cycles.

    AFM This waiting is so painful. It's really going by so slowly but only 5 days now. I just pray that the pg sac has grown and the embryo is still alive.

    xxHB

    Happybaby, hang in there. Hoping so much for you that all is well. C'mon little embie!

    Good point... I agree about the subscription, for all the comfort and knowledge that it has provided to me over the last few years, I think I will subscribe, as BB has been invaluable to me.

    Hi all
    Have not had a chance to come in here on PC (ie. Not phone) for a couple of days. Still on phone and at work so not a long post. Will try to get on again when I get home. Needless to say I am thinking of you all x

    Eight days past transfer and I have given up trying to analyze every little thing. Right now I feel a bit queasy and I feel like I am getting a cold. Had some sharp stabby pains down low but my boobs seem less sore. Also been hot and cold at night with weird dreams. Who knows!!

    I desperately want to poas but dp is dead against it in case of a false reading. I might sneak one in on the weekend and keep it to myself. Back later xx

    Thank you so much ladies for all your advise and support- I knew you would understand and make me feel better. I really appreciate everything. Your words have been so kind and lovely. I think just a break from B'Ding may be good - well at least for a few days lol. I'll try not to get too bogged down in O'ing etc and just try enjoy life - huh if I can.
    I will also have a chat to my step-mum who is a councellor or may even try and see another councellor - esp if things continue this way. Thanks again.

    Goodluck ladies, for you all!!! xoxo

    1mp - stop at opu. No need to take after that as no eggs in there! Once transfer happens you are technically pg so you can't take it.

    Hey everyone. Sorry I havent been around, dh and I are buying a house and I've been trying to focus all my energies on that rather than ttc.
    Have got questions though... I'm curently doing a down reg cycle, on the pill and due to start sniffing my syneryl (spelling...sorry) on monday. Now they have bookwd an ultrasound on the 6th but she said for now... Now is this us meant to help them see when im ovulating? And is the date dependent on when af comes? Normally when would epu then be??? Im more worried about work, its so tight here I think ill end up having to just call in sick the mornings stuff is happening.... Because to get a requested day off you have to ask like 2 months ahead (they are currntly asking for our june requests...) So a basic timetable might help me work out how guilty ill feel taking which days off...
    Ty so much girls! Even tho I dont post I am thinking of u all!

    Go 1MPlz! Glad jabs are starting.

    Teirae- you should get AF after you stop the pill, mine was a few days later I think. It doesn't really matter when AF comes, they give you a cycle day 1 whether you have af or not. Do you know when you start injections? its usually a week or so after AF. The u/s should be a week or so after that, to check follicle size and lining. My clinic has it all written on a piece of paper- very necessary for brainless twits like me. Good luck with the house, we bought one last year, the paperwork of that and ivf nearly drove me bonkers!

    I'm going off for my scan and BT now, feeling ok about it as i can feel my ovaries are swollen but still didn't get much sleep last night so must have been secretly worried, will come back with results and more persies this arvo xxx

    Oh N2L I'm sorry you got a BFN

    Teirae Good luck with this cycle. It's hard to work out the EPU date. Mine was 3 weeks after I started the Synarel. I had a blood test 9 days after starting the Synarel to check that my hormones were surpressed enough and then I could start the FSH injections a day later. All the best.

    Saffy good luck with the bt and scan. I too haven't been sleeping well. My brain just doesn't want to shut down. Hope it all goes well.
