Thanks girls, its really meant alot to me to have your support on here. Still not word on the BT yet, I called about half hour ago and left a message. Like I said not holding my breath.
N2L - I am really sorry to hear that your AF is on her way. I cant even imagine what your going through now. I dont know how you stay so strong after all you have been through. I know its that drive to hold our own baby one day in our arms, but even that can only take us so far. When I was having my polyp removed I had a lovely nurse who said she went through IVF and it didn't work for her then a year later she went to the doctors for other issues and he ran a BT for pg and turns out she was pg. She said she had no idea, as fully believed her time was up. How come we hear so many stories like that, why cant it be our story???
Miss.B - I really wanted a day 5 transfer, but my fresh one got cancelled due to a polyp right where they would implant the embryo. Because EPU was on a Tuesday, they froze the 4 really good ones on Friday as they are closed on Sundays. I felt so frustrated by that whole saga. I am hoping this time that we can time it so its a day 5 transfer. It sounds like we had good embryo's. My morulas thawed 100% no frag, but I know its tricky with morulas. I just dont think they progressed from thawing. I have had no symptoms really. BB were not even sore. I am staying positive for you though. You sound like your making all the right noises
Kashby - Thanks for the offer of the list. I am happy to continue with it. I had thought that I would like to drop out for a while, but think there is so much going on in here I shouldn't ditch you all. Having said that of course if you want to do the list, or anyone else, just let me know. Am really happy to be a share bear and let us all take a turn at the list
Just had "the phone call" BFN!!! I knew it and I really want to thank you all for your suggestion to POAS yesterday. At least I was at home and as I am now at work, I am not blubbering over my desk. I am to continue taking my meds as I want to have AF after I see my FS so I can start again. Annoying, but at least it wont waste 6 weeks, possible longer as I dont ovulate on my own anymore.
N2L I'm sorry things aren't looking great. You are right it does suck.
Well according to my blood test I am still baseline so looks like my follicle needs to cook for a little longer. I'm to continue testing with seratec and to go for repeat bt on Wednesday morning.
Vic and N2L I am so sorry to hear it was not good news. Vic all the best with your next appointment and hopefully next time will be the one. N2L my eyes are watering as I right to you. I kept thinking when you were getting Bfn's that if it could be wrong and you were pg I would be happy to wait a bit longer for my go. It's just not fair girls but I guess I don't need to tell you that.
My us this morning showed one measly follie on the left and nothing on the right. The left one is still way to small so still a good week of jabs to go. That will make it about cd 18 before I get one ripe follicle. Hopefully my bt results come back a bit more positive.
Hi to everyone els, I should be working so will come back and read all your posts soon.
Just wanted to send the biggest hug to Vic and n2l, I am so sorry it is bfn I was so hoping to hear some good news for you both. I can only imagine what you are going through, I haven't find a full ivf but I have done iui and that was hard enough.
I hope your dh's are giving you all the love and snuggles you need to help you through this.
hope your bodies recoup quick and you can try again soon.
I will do persies later.
Hope everyone else is going along ok and keeping strong xo
Vic – so very sorry to hear about the BFN – life sucks sometimes. Vic, please look after yourself. If you need a break from hear, we’d all understand. But we love your company and all your posts, so would love you to stay (if you feel up to it).
N2L – I can’t imagine your pain right now. So so so very sorry.
Hi Revind – hope things are going okay for well. I’m sure you’ll find this thread helpful. I have.
Blossum – GL with EPU. Looks like I’ll be just a day behind you so we will be in TWW together.
Janie – Hopefully it wont be too long til EPU time. Your follie and lining numbers sound pretty good to me – but I am still pretty new to this and trying to figure it all out.
Kashby – you are too sweet. I hope you are going ok.
Keta – hope that follie starts doing some good growing for you.
Miss B – how are you going since ET. How exciting PUPO. How are you coping with the start of the TWW?
Hi to everyone else - hope you are all well.
AFM – I had BT and US today. 3 follies between 18 and 19. 13 follies between 14 and 16. Lining 10, I think. Anyways so the FS is pretty happy with how the follies are growing and has booked me in for EPU on Wednesday (25th) morning. So shortly this evening I’ll be taking my trigger. I am nervous but SO excited. I also feel so very guilty that I’ve had good news on a day when so many of you lovely gals have had crap news.
Life is not fair!
Vic and n2l, sending more hugs your way . Hopefully you'll get some good news in the coming cycle
Blossom, GL with your EPU hun! I think I am suffering the after effects now. Feel prety swollen and sore. Just remember to rest up post op. I was going to and let's just say, my plans went out the window!
Kashby, I hope your crisis at home is resolved. You don't need that extra stress with IVF hun
Janie, how exciting for you hun! You'll be PUPO very soon! GL for the transfer hun
Keta, don't worry hun, the extra jabs will make the follies grow, I'm sure!
Jane, woo hoo for great results! Doesn't get much better than this hun. I'll be thinking of you on Wednesday, wishing you all the best. My 2WW is going slowly, but I have plenty of distractions which is good I think. Just wish I could have a big rest!
Hi to everyone else, I hope you're all travelling nicely, Mia, Saffy, kerbear, myturn, did I miss anyone?
AFM, just sore and at the end of each day I realise I have over done things....again! Trying to take it easy. Tummy has blown up like a balloon, same thing happened with the fresh cycle I did 3 years ago. I looked 4 months pg then and now, even before I got my BT! Cramping on and off, boobs sore, tired and very emotional. I have started the crinone gel last night. Oh the joys!
N2L and Vic - Sorry to hear your news Big big hugs to you both!!!
Miss B - Boo to feeling very average, I know how you feel at the moment.
Jane - Great nes about your follies, well done! Im sure you'll be fine with the trigger shot, I hyped myself up so much last time and when I finally did it I couldnt believe how much of a fuss I had made!
Keta - Sorry to hear your follies arent playing the game! Looking forward to catching yo for a coffee tomorrow after work!
Hi to everyone else!!!
AFM - Feeling rather average today Sorry if TMI but ive had a very upset tummy since starting the Puregon on Saturday, constantly on the look, wondering whether I should call the nurse and let her know? DH reckons I have had cleaning and cooking OCD since starting on the drugs :/ This is probably true but I didnt even notice until he mentioned it last night. I have a nice aray of bruises on my tummy at the moment and this morning my needle really hurt! I've never had it hurt like that before, not sure what is going on. Im back to work tomorrow after having 5 days off. DH goes back to work (fly in fly out) on Thursday, im a bit sad he wont be here when I find out how my follies are going but never mind.
Amy, I hope ur tummy is feeling better today. Have you given your nurse a quick call? Doesn't hurt Hun. Maybe they have you on a dose that's too high? Sending big hugs xox
N2L and Vic- I'm so so sorry. I know all too well how horrendous this is. Sending you both lots of love and peace and anything else that will help you get through it. Thinking of you.
Jane- Congrats on those great numbers! Hoping everything goes brilliantly with EPU.
Thanks Girls for all your cuddles. Its been a great source of comfort for me.
N2L - Are you OK?
Blossom - Good Luck for today. We will all be thinking of you and be quietly stalking you for your results.
Kerbear - Good luck to you also today. We will be stalking you too
Amy - I hope your tummy has settled down now. Some of them can be painful and others you barely feel. I felt as I got closer to pick up they got more tender. My trigger was the most painful. Lucky for me I dont have a washboard stomach so there is plenty to grab I too had the cleaning and cooking bug. DH said I was already nesting.
Miss.B - Try and take it easy. I know its hard with a little one, but its important. And I hear you on the emotional side of things. Even a tv commercial could set me off lol.
Jane - We are all excited to hear for your EPU tomorrow. There is nothing to feel guilty about, as at the end of the day its our own personal journey and at the moment yours is a very exciting!!! Enjoy the moment!!!! Plus we are all hanging out for some good news in this thread.
AFM - Am feeling much better today. DH and I talked last night and both say how grateful we are that we POAS on Sunday so yesterday wasn't such a shock. We looked at the budget and can just scrape in another go when I see the FS next week. He said we agreed to give it 12 months and our all for IVF and whats done is done and lets look to the future. He has been amazing and my total rock. If he had of said he needed a break this month I would have secretly lost it. So, chin up, shoulders back, we are going to do it all again
Just a quick one as I am on my iPad but I wanted to say thank you for all the lovely messages of support from you all. It makes it easier knowing there are people out here who understand. So thank you all
As it turns out I have had no more bleeding since that one bit yesterday morning. I am still sure I am not pregnant (haven't tested but NO symptoms whatsoever) but as I am not a 'spotter' with AF I wonder if it might have been old blood from the transfer or just irritation??? Who knows??
Hope all of you are well...will try to get on pc for persies later x
Ps. I was one day out on the list Vic. I hope you don't mind that I just changed it myself.

n2l, you know what I'm gonna say right? It ain't over till it's over!
Hi Meg!
Hello to everyone else, not much to report, weather is driving me up the wall it's so bloody HOT and disgusting!
N2L, It doesnt sound like your over and out yet. Are you going to POAS? I dont know either why you had a break through, especially since your on meds. Could be a bit of irritation. Will have all my fingers and toes crossed for you. Someone has to start the run of BFP's in here and I so want it to be you xxx And of course I dont mind that you changed the list. Feel free anytime to jump in.
To anyone wanting to have a go at the list please, please let me know. Like I said am happy to do it but also very happy to be a share bear Do I have everyone right on the list? CD's and dates??? Anyone else want to jump on the list???
Hi Meg
Jane - Good luck for tomorrow
