Hi girls,
I'm still around, on the pill until 22nd Jan then into a stim cycle- yay!( not)....
Reading posts at the moment but not replying much, I am having time away at the beach ( between work shifts) for another week and its really nice to NOT be obsessed about ttc for once, drink what I want, eat what I want, not peeing on sticks constantly, looking at cm, forcing DH to dtd, etc!!!
Hey, maybe I won't come back.......
Good luck to everyone jabbing at the moment, hope we all get our bfps, its nice to see such a busy thread for 2012!!
Sitting in fs clinic waiting for bt so I can start jabbing tomorrow. So excited its a little silly. Last time it took 15 days to get a ripe follicle hoping it will be a bit quicker this time. Looks like I will be in good company though!
Keta - Good luck with your jabbing tomorrow. Its great to still get excited!
Miss B - Well done on your jabbing. Nothing beats the adrenalin rush of that first jab. Its the begining of hope I guess. Just wondering how you have been through IVF before but not injected yourself? And its obviously worked before so why are you changing things up this cycle? Its interesting to know everyones story and whats worked in the past.
Pholi - Thanks for your good wishes. You have been on my mind. Hope to join you soon.
N2L - I guess you must be in having your EPU today. Fingers crossed you get some great number with great quality eggies.
Hi to everyone else in here.
AFM - PUPO reporting for duty. Yesterday went well. I didn't phone ahead this time to find out if any thawed as they said they would call me. Last time I rang as soon as my plane landed, but decided not to put so much pressure on my self this time around. No call was good news, I guess. Having said that, when I got to my appoinment they said that only 1 thawed. I was pretty shocked to be honest, which is silly, having been given all the stats. My little day 3, 12 cell didn't make it. Funny, as last time my day 3, 8 cell only just made it through. It went down to 5 cells, but decided that it was still viable. Guess not, with the BFN I got last month. So my little day 3 grade 4 Morula thawed at 100%. The lab tech said it looked very good, but I have heard that Morulas are not the best for transfers and dont know how I feel about that. I had a learning specialist in with us. My normal doc did the actual procedure, but the learning doc was doing the ultrasound and couldn't find my uterus. He had to help her in the end. Just that its in the right spot. I do have another ultrasound picture and my normal doc said it was in perfect place. Guess time will tell. I feel sad for my little embryo that didn't make it, but trying to remain positive for the other embryo. We didn't DTD before or after, so I dont know if that will help or hinder the process. If I had of read earlier posts I would have jumped DH, but with meds, dont feel much in the mood these days. Thanks for you advice girls. I didn't receive that info on any sheets about DTD 3-4 days before hand. The nurse just said that they like it. We were too scared to last time, so waited till our BT. We are not going to wait this time. Guess we need to try something different.
Is it weird that I feel like this one is a DD? Lol! Last time I felt like it would have been a DS, but this time I am talking to her calling her the name we both picked if we are lucky enough to get a BFP. Its been like a crazy instinct. And I said I wasn't going to get emotionally involved this time . Its so damn hard not to once they go back in.
We now have no more in storage, and we are so hoping that we dont have to go back for another stim cycle. We will if we have to, but it would be nice to be done with IVF. Anyone, sorry for the long all about me post. Just wanted to fill you all in.

n2l - I'm crossing my fingers, toes, legs and arms for you, and when you get your BFP I will be crying with happiness for you. good luck.
miss B - ... that wasn't so bad, was it? first one is always the freakiest
vic -
keta - enjoy it lol
amy_jellybean - twiddling my thumbs for you lol
Saffy - good to hear that you are enjoying yourself at staying relaxed atm
AFM - finished the pill on monday... just on the syneral at the moment, and waiting till monday for my first ultrasound before I can start stabbing myself... then the action starts. (just in time for me to go back to work! lol)
I have pretty good fertilization rates. It's getting them to implant that's the hard bit!! I am doing a Day3 transfer this time. I have always done Day 2. It will be interesting to see if they all keep going until then. I remember reading Day 3 is a bit of a hump to get past.
Mia- Good job!!! not as bad as you'd imagined, right?
N2L- Yay, Good luck for sat xxx
Hi everyone else.
I am AF day 1, but started Lucrin on Tues. Start Puregon on 18/1. starting to feel really good about it all, BUT at the same time trying not to get my hopes up.
Vic- am glad to hear that you are emotionally invested, surely we all have to believe the best outcome will happen. Otherwise we would all be super depressed constantly.
