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.
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.
So understandable jane, get lots of rest to give those embies a good place to snuggle in to when you get the chance for FET. Will be thinking of you whilst you are MIA and remember we are all here for whenever you need a chat and I am do sorry you have to wait a while to be able to have another go, I am sending you a cyber bearhug xo
Today I decided to poas to see if my trigger is gone and it is so now I am hoping next week when I do it again I can see 2lines, cross fingers.
Feeling heaps better this week, thank you all for your sweet messages to see how I was doing it means so much to have you all here.
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
Can't keep up in here, so much happening and all a roller coaster. Am going to have a cuppa and try again tomorrow!
Just read about your ET Jane - missed that earlier, so sorry. No words can be said.
xx

Jane, sending you lots of love and I hope when your body is feeling much better, a beautiful perfect little embie is put in and baked for 8 or so months!
Kerbear, yay for the trigger gone! Now it's that bloody wait! FX for you sweets
Kashby, enjoy your DVDs hun, and big hugs for you lovely. It's amazing how all the drugs affect our wee bodies
Big hugs all round and as always, baby dust and sticky vibes for everyone.
So sorry Jane - sucks that there's such a wait in between as well. Stalk all you like, and if there is anything we can do please let us know..... not that there is much... but we can at least be friendly listeners who can support you with the annoying wait. is it worth going back to work early??? a week is a LONG time when you feel miserable!! At least keep busy (even though you don't feel like it!) and visit some friends - go and have lunch with them at their work place - maybe it will help to keep occupied?? Where are you located anyway???
Keta - glad you are feeling better this week - I'm hoping it's a sticky one - and all the weirdness will be over!
same for you Kerbear!!!
Oh MissB! - I too am keeping that it's a sticky! try to keep your chin up... it's not over yet!!
Kashby - sorry to hear you've had a rough couple of weeks - good to hear that you feel on top of things now though. I thought it was weird that no one rang to check I've started and all is okay - but I guess they figure that WE are the ones desperate to get preg, so surely we would get the dates right!!! lol kitchen is totally empty, and will be for another three weeks ish!! Hopefully I will have a BFP to celebrate with by then!!
Vic - I was wondering about n2l as well.... I'm sure she's just taking a break, and I thought on the thread somewhere she said AF had arrived with a vengence... I though it was maybe on thursday last week?? Happy Australia Day
You are welcome to do the list however you like nice to have someone else eager take control of something - and it's so helpful that you keep it up to date so nicely - thanks!! I'm glad you felt everyone was understanding - you're right, it's so hard to tell people about BFN when you are struggling yourself... I had to email my boss after the last one, and actually said... "just wanted to let you know without having to actually say the words".
Amy - always feels like we are waiting for something... what's another blood test? Yay! for wednesday EPU
Kimbe - I know! it's so hard to keep up in here!!! We won't be offended - just do your best when you feel like it. xxx
Hi to anyone I have missed....
AFM... US this morning - all looks good, she thinks there might be 6 follicles on the right and 7 on the left So I'm up to 13 now! woo hoo! not too few, and not too many! So I get comfirmation tomorrow lunchtime for a trigger tomorrow night or wednesday.... so EPU thursday or friday.... I'll confirm tomorrow, but hoping for friday, as I have a meeting booked for thursday and it's too hard to change it!
- certainly this cycle has worked MUCH better for me than the last one, which is reassuring. BTW Vic - I'm CD17 now
bad news is, my cold came on with a vengence this arvo..... hoping the synarel found where it needs to be, cause I couldn't taste it!!! lol.
signing off to stalk a few threads for a while and watch Big Bang!!
You'll have to excuse me I'm no good at persies and now all the old posts have gone, even harder to keep up.
N2L- WHERE ARE YOU??? Hope you're stalking quietly, but feel free to drop in and let us know how truly s**t the world feels right no.
Vic- you are doing an amazing job, without the list I would never cope. GL with FS xx
Jane- I am so sorry. I cannot even imagine how hard that must be, even when my stim got cancelled i felt dreadful... but remember that little embie is just resting and waiting for your body to catch up xx
Myturn- how exciting, glad your US went well and hope they get loads of perfect little follies. BOO to feeling crap due to a cold.
amy- what great results.
Mia and kshby- never had to do synarel- but sounds yuck. although... I do have to do 2 injections (wonder whats worse?) I do them both at 6:30am but have trined DH well, he brings them to me in bed all drawn up and ready to go. When he whinges I ply the "it's fine for you, all you have to do is cum in a cup" card. hahaha
Kimbe- don't worry, you cn't be any worse than me.... as I write I have to scroll down million times to try to see whats happening and 9 times out of 10 get myself confused. Also- the lingo!! took me about 2 weeks to work out PUPO and POAS
AFM- had 2nd U today. Have loads on my R ovary and a few on my L, and they have grown... but not enough just yet My oestrogen still a bit low too. So, have yet another US and BT on wednesday. which will hopefully show that all these little guys are big enough to take out. think nurse sid earliest EPU could be is friday. I am still freaking out about being cancelled again, but feeling a little more hopeful as since my last US I have gone from none being over 10mm, to heaps being around the 14mm mark.
Not sure if it's purely mind over matter, but yesterday and today have been feeling way more bloated and hd cramping... hope thats a good sign. grow my pretties xx
hope you are all well, whatever stage you're up to and sprry to all those I have missed.
Just a quickie cos I'm at work but did my first synorel spray YAY, at first spray I kind of didnt committ so I dont think I got a good spray so I did it again.
Not sure if thats right but the nurse the other day said if I sneeze or blow my nose within 5 mins of spraying I had to spray again so I suppose its not THAT bad.
The thing was that I didnt press down on the pump hard enough so I got a half harded spray if that makes sense. Didnt seem like much spray came out.
Anyways would like to hear your girls opinion on that, now have a little bit of a yuk taste in my mouth but had some water and it wasnt too bad
Will come back on later tonight for more persies xo
Hi ladies, am at work too and given the "session" on Technology Code of Conduct the other day should probably be brief lol.
I can't believe there is no one in the Waiting to Transfer list now. Technically i am...desperately waiting to transfer something, just got to get to that point first huh and I guess Jane's post yesterday really hit home last night how critical every point in the protocol is, from squirts to jabs to drinking the gallons of water they expect us to drink. It's all just so cruicial and still out of our control.
Myturn - your follies count sounds nice, not too many but a nice number to feel good about retrieving some eggies. Hope the cold passes quick for you so ER happens smoothly
Kashby & Amy - you both make me laugh with your "management strategies" Might borrow some of that attitude, get hubby to sit with me patiently while i jab away and then chill with a box set of Modern Family or BBT to get me through (probably with an enormous bag of microwave popcorn while i'm at it...hey if i'm going to bloat anyway, what's the difference?!)
AFM - left home at 6am to get to WFC for BT, then gave myself the jabs there too. Then raced back across Sydney to get to work. All achieved and back by 8.30 so no one is any wiser Yay! Am sitting with my phone next to the keyboard on my desk and don't even know why, they've got no reason to ring me as i'm booked in for the US on Friday (not Thurs, whoops, sorry Vic!).
I do have a slightly wierd, yet wonderful IVF question for you all...with the bloating, did you also get a larger cleavage??? No, seriously,all laughs aside yesterday after i started the Orgal, i felt throughout the day the bloat start, but also the bust totally growing. DH agreed when i asked him last night if he could notice anything different. Haven't had this before and definitely don't want to be buying new bra's for an IVF cycle!! Thoughts??
Miss.B - CD23 10 days post transfer 1 x 2 day embryo BT 03.02.12

Missren - CD 2 day post transfer 1 x day 2 embryo BT 13.02.12

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.
