Rhi - I'm so excited for you!!! Wishing you all the best for your pg hun.
Loving that we have bfp rolling through, keeps me going and reassured that I I get to the ivf level it will all be more than worth it.
Kashby - yay at being pupo can't wait to here you are officially just pg and can drop the otherwise.
N2L - did af arrive? Hoping your body is playing the game for you.
Thanks everyone for thinking of me. After much debate I have been given permission to continue puregon and have another scan and bt Wednesday. My hormones were quite low given I have three follicles so it's wait and try to figure out what is happening. Personally I really felt like I o'd on the weekend but who knows! It is my birthday today so going to do my jab and the forget ttc for the day (yeah like that will happen haha). Hope everyone is going ok.
Vic261 - CD 24 10 day post transfer 2 x day 2 embryo BT 05.03.12
Meg76 - CD24 8 day post transfer 1 x day 5 embryo
Kashby - CD22 1 day post transfer 1 x day 2 embryo
Oh My God RHI !!!! That is the best news !!! I got all teary reading it and wanted to wish you a safe and sticky 9 months. I know you have fear for your m/c's but lets push all that fear aside and enjoy the ride.
Congrats Kashby on being PUPO!! Welcome to the mad house that is the TWW. Ugh! Get plenty of rest in the next few days.
Keta - Good luck with your scan on Wednesday. FX that is a good outcome.
Hay ladies, I'm hoping I can join in here, I am hanging out in a few other forums but think this is where I should be. My last cycle was a failed IUI so I'm taking this months off but will meet with the FS on the 19 Mar to arrange our first IVF and am so so scared but also feeling a little excited.
Rhi- congrats hun, I hope you have a wonderful pregnancy.
Welcome Mrs Mac. There are lots of lovely ladies in here doing all kinds of assisted conception, so its a great place for any info that you need. Let me know if you want me to add you to the list
Mrs Mac Dont be scared, this is my first IVF round and seriously after the 6 weeks tomorrow I have my ET and am happy I did it and would do it again (although I hope I dont have to LOL)
GL on your journey
Vic - have you been tempted to POAS? Im going to go nuts in the TWW I can just see it LOL
Sorry I have been mia for the last week, have been super busy at work!
FS appointment went really well, all tests for both Dh and I came back clear so he booked me in for a lap in March, hopefully we have some answers from that!
Good luck to those in the tww I'll endeavour to keep up from now on
N2L - Have you been using OPK's this month? My clinic say its not unusual to not ovulate after stim cycles.
Strawberry - Great news about your tests coming back good. Good luck with lap.
TTL - Thanks for your info on growing out your embies. We will definately consider it next time. Seems a shame to waste them but really need to know if our embies are of good quality. I get good number, good fertilisation rates, but have not had a chance to grow them out. First stim was day 3 (4 our of 4 survived and were frozen) then day 2 (7 survived, 2 put back in, 5 frozen). My clinic said its become a more common practice now to thaw them and grow them out. I know the best place is the womb, but if none of our survive to blasti, then it could be a quality issue, since no one can tell me why I cant get pg apart from I am 41. My AMH is 15.8.
Mia - I have not been tempted, but its starting to pop up in my mind. BT due Monday, but may ring and get it done Sat morning since DH goes away for work Monday morning and cant bear for a BFN if he is not here all week. Am too scared to POAS. Hate that damn negative stick. Although, last time I did it on a Sunday and cried all day, but the BT was almost a non event on the Monday.
AFM - Am still ticking along. I feel like we have done all the right things this round. It was our first fresh transfer, I took a week off work to recover and have had no stress. DH was with me for transfer and I have been really into savoury foods and normally I am a sweet tooth. The BB are sore. Nipples are really sensitive. I have had twinges/cramps off and on. Sore lower back. I am still putting it down to the meds though. Dont want to get my hopes up.
happy birthday keta! hope you get spoiled at some stage today.
thirdtimelucky - hi and congrats to you! can i ask you, when your surplus embie got refrozen at day 5, did your clinic give you any info on how they expected that one would go being re-thawed? i am in a similar situation to what you were in that i have thawed 3, day 2 embies out to try for blasts. FS was thinking we would get 1 (if lucky), but we might actually end up with all 3. just not sure about refreezing/rethawing and how the embies hold up after that?
mia - in my experience the ET doesnt hurt as such, sometimes it can be a bit uncomfortable (like that scrapping when you have pap smear). i am small, so i never get through 600ml of water (prob half that), but just drink what your bladder feels comfortable holding! i drank too much for one ET and was in agony bc the FS was late. after ET is done, you're up and out of there - no mess, no fuss. i usually go and have lunch somewhere and try to relax. not always successfully! goodluck.
hi everyone else.
afm - got a text from clinic, transfer scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. apparently lab havent updated embie's status recently, but all 3 thawed and are still going. guess i will find out more tomorrow. good news is that i can grow day 5's, i really hope they are stickier than my day 2/3's...!
Andie - Well done on your frosties growing out to blastis. Its almost like another test lol. I too am interested in the thawing of an already frozen and thawed emby and how it will go. Good luck with transfer tomorrow and for joining the TWW madness
Good luck to you too Mia for tomorrow. Its very exciting !!!
Mrs Mac - Welcome! I was rather scared too when I found out we had to go through IVF, but I found that the ladies in here, have, in one form or another been really comforting. By sharing their tips and thoughts/emotions. It helps when you know there are others experiencing the same things as you
Andie & Mia - Good luck tomorrow for ET. I will hopefully see you later next week in the 2ww! oh & Andie to answer your question from yesterday the intralipid was because I have elevated NK cells I also have to take dexamethasone because of them as well. (not to mention a heap of other stuff) lol the things we have to do!
Strawberry - Good to hear your tests came back good, all the best with the lap.
Vic - I have my fingers & toes crossed for you
Hi to everyone else!
AFM - Well I have just had my trigger shots, not as bad as I was expecting. I have EPU Thursday so now I suppose I just have to wait.... I do however have to have something done by FS tomorrow due to my lining not being thick enough?? He did explain when he rang but I was at work(too many eavesdroppers) so he said he would fill me in tomorrow.
Have a great night & good luck whereever you are at
Congrats Kashby on being PUPO!! I'll be there too soon
Keta - Happy Belated Birthday! GL with your scan today
Vic - props to you for being strong and not POAS, I hope I can get through the TWW without being tempted! GL for Sat or Monday (when you have your BT)
Strawberry - all the best for your lap
Andie - hope today goes well for you and YAY for being PUPO together!
Planet Sasha - thanks I'll def see you in the TWW soon!
