Katones - Sorry for your definite BFN To use a phrase from my childhood - It sucks big knobs doesnt it Hopefully next month will be the month for both of us - and Saffy too!
Saffy - good luck for this cycle. I REALLY hope this is the one for you
Melissa - I hope the day off yesterday was exactly what you needed. Take care x
Kass - Hope you are doing well x
Blossom - Hope the jabs arent causing you too much grief
Happybaby - How did your OPU go?? Looking forward to hear some big news from you!
Oneday - You are my inspiration at the moment! I am so thrilled for you!!!!!!!
AFM - I wanted to say thank you to everyone for your lovely messages of support following my crap day the other day. Feeling a bit more positive today. The pathology results came back ok so that's good. And, as far as I know, the little embies are still doing what they are meant to be doing. I will ring the clinic this afternoon for an update. If all is well they will freeze them tonight. Then all I need to do is wait for AF - kind of ironic i am still doing the 2ww!!!
Speaking of which, has anyone here had a D&C? How long after did AF show??
Well I had the EPU yesterday and we got only 5 eggs. I was a bit disappointed with such a low number. Our FS was hoping to get 9-10 eggs this time.
My nurse called this morning and 4 have fertilised which is good but I'm worried how many will last til Tuesday. From the 2 previous cycles we've ended up with 2 good ones which is only 1/4.
It's just typical that when I decide to transfer 2 and we might not have 2.
Sorry for the depressing rant. I know I should be grateful and it only takes one etc but I can't help feeling down.
Anyway I hope everyone has a good weekend.
I'm thinking of all our embies and hope they're growing or snuggling in nicely.

n2L we posted at the same time. Glad the pathology results were good. I had a D & C in October and I waited anxiously for AF so I could start another FET. She took 40 days or 5.5 weeks to show which I think is about average.
I know how five eggs may seem disappointing but really, it's not too bad. I only got two and I felt terrible about it but then one of the nurses said lots of women get none. So I guess it's all relative. Doesnt make you feel any better though, does it.
All we need to do is pray we get what we need at the end. I am also hoping to transfer two. Of course, that would require a 100% survival rate for the little guys but I am sure they will be of such a superior quality, there wont be any problems That's what I keep telling myself anyway.... lol
TMI ~ AF was dribs & brabs yesturday not full on but today she is here with a vengance....pain pain pain.... and i just passed a huge clot (size of an orange!!!!) scared the beejeezus outta me!!!
i just wish time would fly!!!!
sorry for the TMI!!!!
Hi all
Just heard from my clinic. One of my embies made it to freeze and is now safely away until I can transfer. I am sad both didn't last but I am glad I have one at least. The nurse suggested I may like to do another stim cycle next time so I guess that is something to think about. Any advice gratefully received!
I had my first 2nd BT this morning and have been called back for another on Sunday. I haven't spoken to the nurse yet so beginning to think my dose might change soon.
Syd IVF. The nurses call with directions after the BT's. I have been told to continue and have another BT on Sunday. That seems a bit soon, but all costs are included in our quote so if they wanna keep testing me it's fine. Is it normally every two days?
Willi - I had a bt every two days for a while there but I wasn't responding very well. What day are you? Did they say why the blood tests? Is it just to make sure you are not about to surge?
Thanks N2L and truly a never thought it would happen for me, i nearly gave up a few times but dont ever give up, if you put your mind to something you can have what ever you want. All the best hun xxxxxxxxxxxx
I am only on third day of injections so I think it's just to check levels. I am sure if there was something really wrong I would know......so maybe every 2 days is normal especially first time round?
williever ~ hun IMO i think it is each different clinics ways of doing things....my first cycle i only have 2-3 blood tests all up and i responded poorly then aswell as this time round...
Ain't looking good for us. Scan today showed next to nothing happening and E2 is only 800 after 9 days of stimming. I don't understand how I can go from borderline ohss to no response in a year. We go for another scan and BT on Monday but not feeling particularly hopeful that things will proceed.
Hope you are all well and your bodies are doing what you want them to do!!!
Melissa - You never know...Things can turn around very quickly. I have my fingers crossed for you sweetie xx
AFM - We were having a chat last night and DP said he wants us to do another full stim cycle next month (or whenever my cycle starts again). I think it makes sense given we have only one bubsicle on ice and the FS wanted to implant two. If I only do a thaw cycle and it doesnt stick (or even make it through the thaw) then I have to wait another cycle to try again. And I feel at my age, every month counts. I guess it depends on advice from the FS.
I feel like I am doing a really horrible 2ww not knowing how long it will take for my cycle to kick into gear after the D&C...
Ah well...what else would I be doing with my time and headspace if not obsessing about this lol
Then all I need to do is wait for AF - kind of ironic i am still doing the 2ww!!!
That's what I keep telling myself anyway.... lol
