    Jane - I am so very sorry hunni. You must be devastated. I know how I felt waking up after my 1st EPU and being told that my transfer was being cancelled due to my polyp. I cried so hard and the doctors and nurses felt really bad and were trying to console me. My embies had to be frozen. Its so hard to have a massive set back like that. I know everyone is saying its good to give yourself time to recover, but stuff that!!! We just want our embies tucked back inside us!!! Keep up being in here though, as it really helps keep ourselves focus when we want to crawl under a rock and cry our eyes out. Your turn for tranfer will come and it will be amazing xxx

    MissB - We will all keep our that that little line keeps continuing to show up each day. It would be lovely if you were the first to leave our little group Although we would miss you dreadfully. Your posts are alway beautiful.

    Keta - So sorry, I had you down for EPU. Dont know where I picked up that info from I am glad it was a lot more fun way of getting UTD. If you want me to add the date your testing let me know.

    Amy - Well done on your results. Good luck with the trigger. Its all so very exciting!!! You must be stoked.

    Has anyone heard from N2L. I gather its maybe not a good result and she is taking some time out. If your stalking N2L we are all here if you need us and your in our thought. Maybe tomorrow I will take you out of the TWW???

    Big shout out to everyone else jabbing, snorting and hanging in the TWW.

    AFM - I really like doing the list and am happy to do it. It helps me remember where everyone else it up to. If its ok, can we just leave it with the most current posts, as its easier for me to go back and just update whats happened the day before. I copy and paste and just change the numbers and add small detail, but I dont want to miss anything and if I get a bit mixed up I just refer back to the days before.

    The weekend was good, just waiting for FS now. We have told everyone now, that we dont have any embies left and it was a negative outcome. We also told everyone that as this stage we are going to keep things private between my DH and myself and would let everyone one know when it was a good outcome, and that we were still continuing on with IVF. Everyone was really understanding, for which I was grateful. Its too hard to tell people its a negative when we are barely dealing with it ourselves. Anyway enough about me.

    Hi ladies,

    Amy, woo hoo! Go chicky! So excited for you hunni. Fingers crossed for an excellent outcome for you this week

    Vic, thanks so much for your lovely comment hun, I really appreciate it. Although, if I was to leave this group, I might just silently stalk you guys! I wish for everyone in here to get those two magical lines. That would be superb I had a good laugh about the 'snorting'! Makes us all sound like druggies, hahaha. Well, we kinda are! I understand your reluctance of telling people about what you're up to with IVF. It's such a personal, emotional journey. And some people just don't get it. But I guess it's hard to 'get it' if you've never been through it. I hope your FS has a good game plan you you guys.

    Keta, one of them swimmers must find that whopper of a gorgeous eggie of yours! FX it does hun

    Jane, just sending you more of these Keep your chin up honey.

    Not much to report, boring day. Feeling pretty tired and I HATE THIS HUMID WEATHER damn it! I'd rather cook in a dry hot oven like a chicken or be stuck in an igloo eating raw fish. But humidity! No way hosey!

    Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone in the 2WW and sending GL vibes to those waiting for EPU and for the rest of you jabbing away or waiting for a FS app. I hope it all moves for you nicely in the right direction.

    Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts. Despite feeling terrible. I really appreciate all your support.

    So the long and short of it for me is that it will be close to two months before I get a chance at a FET. Not even sure what that will involve. But it's so far away I guess it doesn't matter right now. I'm not sure how many embies they have been able to freeze. This morning they were thinking only 3 but I don't know. I just hope they survive the freeze.

    Anyways, I might go MIA for a little while whilst I pull myself together. I'll keep stalking you all though and hopefully read about an avalanche of BFPs.

    Much love and baby dust to you all.

    Unhappy

    Well howdy all. Wow, so much action-

    Vic, - First and foremost, what a fantastic job you continue to do with the list. Thank you! Glad things for you are on the way.......

    Janie - PUPO - WOW! Awesome! GL

    LiseyT - Hope scan better this week....will await the good news..........

    Kerbear and MissB - Hang in there...........thinking of ya

    Bee - Sorry the stupid $$$ have to rear their ugly head - the break is not wanted or fun, but maybe a blessing in disguise - who knows

    Mia - Hope the sniffing going OK - totally get the anxiety about it working or not - guess that is why there is the big overlap with OCP - to give us a few days to get it right! Sorry the nurse was not there for you.

    Renvind - I can see from your recent posts elsewhere that things are not all in order for you at present. Hang in there. Big gentle hug. Shoulder and ear here for you if you want it

    Blossom - Happy birthday for yesterday - hope you had a great one. Wahoo - PUPO! FX

    Myturn - GL with those loverly follies - here's to eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs! Hope the kitchen is in order....

    Jane - How devastating. Nothing to say except - hugs hugs hugs. Oh, and I hope your back has settled down.

    AmyJB - What a fantastic haul-in-the-waiting - FX for the next step

    Keta - Hehehe - am sure you are NOT really getting out of it easier than us ....... as on my favourite t-shirt I saw in Cambodia last year "Same same, but different". What a waste of good bubbles but I get it - hope the bloating soon settles in time for a 9m bloat (FX)....

    Hey to everyone else - had fantastic things to say last week then lost them all - sowwy but thinking of ya all and sorry to anyone I have missed in the persies - not easy!!!

    AFM - Well. Have had reasonably close to the worst two weeks of my life, I think. Have had much resolution and am feeling a lot better. I find it hysterical I can have had such a time without the IVF-hormonal content being a major factor, just the stress on top of the usual. I truly believe everything happens for a reason and the things I have managed to address over this time will serve me well for the coming challenges - whatever they may be. Started Synarel on Saturday and am now getting pretty good at it - was kinda surprised I had no call from the nurses to check up on it but, I'm OK, so will leave it at that. I am doing 7 and 7 and have set an alarm which is totally ODIOUS - maybe OBNOXIOUS, even! DH gets to wake up/know it is 'that time' and share the joy too - hehehehehehehe - I am SUCH a cow! I am pleased to start another phase but the closer I get, the closer I get to it not working so that also comes with it's own little fun-times. Have discovered a great TV-series on DVD for when I am not sleeping and cannot concentrate on all the work I should be doing - MadMen - love it!! But I am sure you guys have better things to do Anyway, thinking of ya all and wishing you follie-dust, sticky vibes and just plain good wishes too. K

    Jane - hope you are going ok, or at least have lots of support while you are going through something so tough. Thinking of you.

    N2L - I have been thinking of you too.

    Myturn - hope your cold settles down. Its weird because my last cycle I ended up with a sore throat and the same happened at the height of jabbing this time too. Went away before my trigger shot though. Maybe your body is getting run down by all the drugs. Hope your EPU goes well and works around your meeting.

    Kerbear - I hope two lines start to form for you!

    Kashby - hope things are getting better for you and it all ends with the best news ever in the form of a bfp.

    Kimbe - the running around, all before work, is crazy isn't it? And then we can't even complain to everyone about it because of trying to keep things quiet. Hope your next us goes well.

    Miss B - hows that second line today? Hopefully getting stronger and stronger.

    Amy_jb - good luck for tomorrow hun. There has to be the perfect egg in there.

    Vic - I hope your fs appointment goes well and you are back in the game nice and quick. Bring on a bfp for your next cycle!
    Thanks for adding in my bt.

    AFM - still feeling pretty tender after my trigger shot. I never ended up with the complete can't sit down pressure feeling this time but feel like I have been punched in the uterus. DH is home tonight so very excited to have some time together before it is my turn to head off. 2012 is proving to be hectic already so why not add a pregnancy to it also! Hopes are definitely going up, fingers crossed they don't have to come crashing down.

    Sorry for just barging straight on into your thread but I just wanted to wish Miss.B all the best of luck with your next POAS and then BT and I am hoping like hell that it is a BFP for you.. I'm not far behind with BT 6th February so i am hoping the gods are kind to both of us..

    Much Love

    Afternoon ladies,

    Dee, thanks sweetheart! I really appreciate you popping in, I can't believe we're both PUPO! That's awesome The second line is still there, don't know if it's getting much darker but it's there! lol. I'll be keeping everything crossed for you hunni, I hope it's a BFP for all of us! Will be stalking you now! xox

    Keta, you're doing so well hun!! Keeping everything crossed for you darl

    Kimbe, yes I did get bigger and very sore (.)(.). They are still bigger and I would like them to stay this way, pretty please Universe .

    Mia, I'm not sure about the nasal spray hun, perhars some of the other ladies will give you some adivice? Yay for the first spray

    Liseyt, praying everything goes well for your EPU

    Myturn, I hope you're feeling a bit better today

    Hello to everyone else!

    AFM, a bit excited today as we've been house hunting, like, forever, and we're looking at house virtually 5 minutes down the road (we don't want to move far). So fingers crossed we love it, auction is in early Feb. And the line is still there, don't think it's getting much darker. I think I'll wait till Friday now, I'm becoming obsessed with these HPT. So not good for my sanity !!

    Evening All! Sounds like lots of positives going on in here...funny how we wait, then there's this flutter of info, then another wait.

    MissB - i am having a sneaky smile for you too from this side of the screen, it would be wonderful to see a BFP on the list

    KearBear, Amy and Lisy (and the other's who've reassured me!) - thanks for confirming my magic unplanned boob job isn't imagined. It's good for me given i'm normally strugglin to fill a B cup so despite the tenderness it's awesome

    KearBear well done on the "final countdown" & LiseyT, night shift then early morning US, you must be exhausted. Hope it showed some good follies for you.

    myturn - I'm singing the Annie song "Tomorrow" thinking of your EPU. Hope it goes smoothly and there are lots of good healthy eggies. Will you get any sleep tonight?? Hope so, you definitely need it with the sickness

    Vic - Am singing Annie for you too, hope your appointment goes well xx

    AFM - Nothing new. Bruised this morning with the orgalutran. Weird as i thought i had found that sweet spot, though maybe it decided it didn't like being *****ed anymore! Had a work colleauge tell me "secretly" she's 9weeks pregnant today. My heart skipped a beat, i was really excited for her but she proceeded to tell me that she and DH had been trying for 3 months and she was getting worried. Ah! Hello??? 3 months is like a dream conception right?? Grr. Shouldn't complain though as she's unaware of my IVF path at present, she's all innocent and beautiful and really if it goes to plan, it will be lovely to be pregnant at work with her.

    Thinking of you all each morning as i drive to work. It's so nice to know that we're not alone in this don't you think.

    thanks kimbe... last time i barely slept the night before, but this time I think I feel so crap I will pass out in a couple of hours and have trouble waking up!!.... now to convince hubby to go buy me a mcflurry first....
    oh.... and did I mention I sing, and have actually BEEN in Annie

    I think of you all often while driving too! Seriously agree, I didn't realise how alone I was feeling in this journey, and now I know that there are people who really DO understand.... thanks girlies...

    ps... miss B.... no necessary.... it's SOOO hard to keep on top of everything in here! we are SOOOOOOOO busy! it's freaky!
    Last edited by myturn; February 1st, 2012 at 07:47 PM. : (apparently McFlurry is NOT on the agenda.... well.... I guess I didn't need it anyway.... ;) )

    Lilmiss - No need to apologise for barging in All are welcome. If you want to join in, am happy to add you to the ever growing list. Good luck for your BT on the 6th.

    Keta - Enjoy your DH being home. Its so exciting when they come back from being away. Hope your feeling better soon too.

    Kimbe - Well done on the secret agent stuff. Its amazing how much we have to sneak around and it sometimes surprises me how people pay little attention to my life and how so much can go unnoticed. Its a good thing really. Especially when undergoing IVF I cant really help with the extra cleavage question, as I cant remember how mine were. Guess not enough for me to notice lol.

    Mia - Well done on your snorting abilities You will soon be a pro I am sure


    Liseyt - We are all cheering on your follies. Grow..grow..GROW!!! Good luck with your BT & US tomorrow morning.

    Myturn - I too have emailed my boss. He gets a bit flustered so we both just accept that email is the way to go. Not long to go till EPU, its all very exciting. It sounds like you have good numbers too. Hope your cold it a bit better today. Your immune system must be down a bit

    Kashby - Sorry to hear that you have had a rough 2 weeks. We are all here if you need us

    Jane - I am sorry to hear that you have to wait 2 months. I pushed to have a FET the following month and my FS allowed it. I guess you have to follow your FS though. Did you ask about going again next month? Please keep stalking us if it helps, otherwise have a rest from the TTC rollercoaster.

    MissB - Still 2 lines???

    Hi to everyone else.

    AFM - I woke up through the night a few times with terrible AF pains. I ended up taking Ponstan and putting a heat pack on my tummy. I feel ready to burst. Sorry if TMI. I was due for AF last Wednesday, but have stayed on meds to hold of AF so that I may go into another stim cycle. I can only hope that I can otherwise it will be a long time before I can go again. Its weird how time goes quicker when your doing the lead up to the TWW, and then once your on the TWW ride, its like time stands painfully still. Thanks for all your kind words about the list xxx

    Thanks Vic I don't know why I bother looking at houses. We live in a shoebox, so really need a bigger house, but the problem with me is that I am so bloody fussy! I wish I wasn't The house was lovely from the outside, so so on the inside, and considering the Melbourne market ATM, the guy is asking far too much (but I had to have a look for myself why he was asking so much). Ideally, I need to build. It's just that the block of land where we live is, is impossible to get....back to the internet

    Miss B - hope you like the house tonight!! FX Maybe you compromise and renovate a house to suit?? I'm so glad the two lines are still there! I'm feeling good about this one for you. xxx

    Vic - hope you're feeling okay now - such a pain that your body is reacting that way, and I am glad you are able to get right into the next cycle... it's awful when it feels like time is ticking away, and it's nice to get into it

    Keta - good luck! I hope the trigger doesn't cause too much pain for the rest of today. Last time I didn't get a reaction from the trigger so I hope it's the same tonight for me!! make sure DH looks after you sweetheart!

    Liseyt - they will grow and before you know it you'll be ready to go, and it will all happen so fast then.... and THEN.... then you have the LONG TWW....

    hope everyone else is well although it's hard to keep up, it really is COOL/GREAT/AWESOME... to know that there are so many of us in a similar position at the moment. I really appreciate all your updates and finding out where things are at.

    AFM
    thanks for all the s guys - I am still not well today, but feeling like it may get better by tomorrow.... YKWIM...
    anyway.... trigger is tonight!!! 7.40pm..... which is great... except that I am going out for dinner with some women from a new job - i'll be teaching some online units through Monash University... so I have put an alarm on my phone for 7.30pm and will go off to the loo after that... just weird to be stabbing in a restaurant! omg... gunna feel like a druggie!

    That means OPU is thursday (8.40am) and ET is Saturday. Then officially PUPO! can you please update me Vic

    I text DH to update him, and told him that unless he could get home by 5pm tonight for a quickie BD he was going to have to figure his portion out himself, as I would be out late
    His reply was "I am sure I can manage if I am not home by 5, was a single man for tooooo many years! xxx"
    Sorry, but I had to share as it amused me so much!
