Well lots has happened since Sunday...
Melissa - I am so pleased you have had a turn around. Woohoo!! Great news!!! It's great to know, just incase my first scan doesn't go well :loveshower: All the best for Wednesday.
Kass - :hug: I'm sorry hun xxxx
Teirae - Thanks for the tips. I have been on the water, but will pick that up a bit. It's quite bruised now so they will have to feel their way around. I am def. sleepy, and forgetful. Students keep reminding me of things!!
Hello everyone:hello:
Well results from BT on Sunday indicated I should start Cetrotide, so last night we started that along with gonal F. My next BT is Wednesday along with a scan. I am guessing (and I have no idea about this) that pick-up could be Friday/Sat, but of course I could be totally wrong. I am also assuming there will be eggies to pick-up! I have got the morning off for my scan so that I don't have to stress out. And I have pre-warned the boss about the possibility about being off on Friday. I needed that out of the way as it was waking me up and stressing me out. I am learning from others and know that I need to reduce the stress levels. Thank you tipsters:heartbeat:
So tonight we continue with the injections. I think we've done really well so far, but the stressful parts are coming up. It feels like time has flown by.......if we get a succesful transfer I probably wont be saying that in the tww:hide:
-
thanks ladies - your support means a lot :grouphug:
I'm hoping I can start straight away, just waiting to see what fs says at my next appointment
Williever - It can be a bit difficult never knowing exactly when things will happen! Hope your scan and pick up go well this week
Happybaby - hope your tww goes quickly and successfully!
Teirae - sounds like good news from the fs :) Hope this cycle is the one and only!
1moreplz - hope af goes soon!
melissa - glad your levels have risen at last! Good luck for tomorrow :goodluck:
Loops - hope your insurance is sorted out soon. What are the bts you're waiting for?
n2l - hope this next cycle goes really well
Hi Saffy, JBM and anyone I've missed (sorry!)
-
Kass - so sorry about BFN big hugs to you
N2L - wow thats great news about next cycle
Oneday - Big congrats on BFP
Loops - I hope everything sorts itself out and good luck with test results
MelissaI - Great news what a turnaround it just goes to show not to give up
Happybaby - good luck with transfer sending you lots of sticky vibes
Teirae - great news for you that your cycle is going along as it should it is exciting when you get started, now just the waiting game
AFM - Day 8 had scan this morning so waiting for instructions from FS! Such an anxious wait as we all know anything can happen from here and i have several cancelled at this stage so waiting waiting waiting in hope.
I had about 12 follies sized from 10mm to 17mm so hopefully there is one good one in there..
Good luck and baby dust to all x
-
good luck ladies. looks like we need some in here atm.
nothing new from me.
just waiting.
-
blossom - I'd be interested to know what the fs has said. I am learning about each phase, and that could help. I hope you don't need to cancel this time around. The size and amount of follies is good? I think it is. Am I right?:redface:
Kass - Thanks very much :loveshower:
afm - Sooooo bloated now. Walking is painful and my trousers are getting tight. I am so worried about being over-stimulated (or whatever you call it)!! ugh UNCOMFORTABLE! DH made me bleed last night with both injections......dropped the needles whilst they were in!! Bruised today :(
-
williever - i know the bloating is horrible...
AFM the FS said i am good to go so pick up on Monday which is exciting!!
Can you believe i actually threw my Gonal F in the bin this morning meant to have 450 in the morning and 300 at night got home to do my injection tonight and nowhere to be found luckily my dosage goes down from tomorrow and i have enough to get me thru as im in Sydney and my clinic is in Brisbane, my brain is mush not working at all scary!!
-
That's great Blossom! Have a lovely relaxing weekend x
I had my scan this morning. Although I am waiting for the bloods here is what was said. I have 6 follies in each ovary. The largest two are 16 with the rest following closely behind (many at 12). Some ickle ones are at 4. Funny that most of the advanced ones are on my left side (where ther is no fallopian tube?!).
But then she said I have a polyp and said I will need to speak to the nurse about it. I googled it and found it could reduce chances with ivf......Why didn't they say I had it before? Why didn't they get rid of it when they got rid of my tube? Do I have to have another op? Are our chances now screwed? I feel like I can't breathe right now.
Has anyone else had this? I need to calm down!
-
Williever it is such a emotional rollercoaster i know the feeling, i hope you are ok! Fingers crossed the polyp wont hinder anything..
Just breathe you have some good follies in there so try to stay positive, easier said than done i know
x
-
I just can't believe something else could mess this up :computer: Hopefully get good news over the phone??
*sulky face*
-
ouch.. is for the needles williever
good luck
-
Williever - sorry but I can't help about the polyp but sending you big hugs, sweetie. 12 follies is great though.
Well, EPU was fun fun fun today. We only got 5 eggies which I'm a bit disappointed with but by the sounds of things, they were stubborn little buggers and required loads of digging around at my insides to get them out. DH was sitting in the room and actually commented to me later about how much more "vigorous" my FS was this time round. Put it this way, we got way way less eggs but still took as long. As a result, super super sore and drugged up to the max along with bleeding like a stuck pig. When I say bleeding, I mean shifting on the bed when i was having a cuppa at the clinic and feeling gushes every time I moved. And every time I stood up, another gush. Thankfully now, its just lovely clots coming out but feels bloody disgusting (no pun intended). I totally didn't expect this as last cycle, I had no bleeding whatsoever and minimal pain (other than slight ohss) so today was a slight shock to the system. My nurse did ring me at home to make sure I was ok but I think the next few days will be getting taken very easily. Now we just wait on tenterhooks for the fert report tomorrow morning.
-
Melissa- I feel your pain...literally! Apparently sustagen is meant to help. Not sure how or why! Congrats on the five eggs. Fingers crossed one of them is the one!
N2L x

Melissa I too felt your pain you poor thing. Congratulations for getting 5 eggs .That's very brave of your DH going into the theatre room with you.
Oneday I hope you doing well and that little bean is getting stronger and stronger.
Blossom, Williever and JBM hope to see you all in the 2ww soon.
AFM the nurse rang today to let me know we didn't get any frosties - I'm ok with it. All set for BT on the 25th Feb although I might know before then. Will my 2 fresh cycles AF turned up exactly one week after transfer. Let's hope she stays away!
-
Melissa - Wow! Sounds like you had a really tough day. I hope you are now relaxing and being looked after. Congratulations on your 5 eggs. Sending you all the positive vybes possible :goodluck: xx
happybaby - I hope to be there soon. No matter how hard the tww is, it's always a bonus to be in it. Thanks x
Thank you ladies for your thoughts today. I did speak to the nurse who said my FS said to relax about the polyp. That it is nothing to worry about right now and no reason to cancel this month (it will always be in the back of my mind now though!).
Back in for BT and scan on Friday, but we are very close:dance:........I was kinda hoping to be told to do the trigger (I know it's too early) because everything is getting that little bit more painful and uncomfortable now:bhcontract:. I struggled driving home, and sitting is awkward. I am comfortable only when laying down.trousers are now too tight, and........well you know the rest.......sick of being a pin-cushion.
Hope everyong has a lovely evening x

Hi Lovely Ladies
Teirae ~ very exciting! Sounds good. All the best. Thanks for your comments - yeh it is hard not too think and stress about it all too much But I think I'm doing ok, pretty well despite everything. Our FS did say the results may take 8 weeks as they have to go to Qld and with the floods I guess they could be anywhere. I'll try and find out very soon though.
Kass ~ Sorry again for your official BFN! BT's are never easy and a pain when you know the result is a neg. Bug hugs. Thanks - they are just a range of tests that our FS wanted us to have, I know one was Thyroid Hormone and another was anti-sperm anti-bodies but don't know what the others were.
Melissa ~ thank you - the patient is doing pretty well :-)He goes back into Melb on Wednesday to have an assessment and a better wash. Having each other is def the most important thing! It would just be nice for us to have a family together and would just make our life together more rewarding. We still have time :) Ouch, rest up and FX'd tight that they all fertilise - to have a few would be great for you!!
1MOREPLZ ~ Hope AF settles down and the month goes super quick for you!
Williever ~ Sorry to hear about your pulp, hope it doesn't affect your IVF too much. Can they remove it? GL tomorrow and EPU, :crossfingers:
Blossom ~ Thanks hon! Those follies sound good, all the best!!
JBM ~ hi and hope you're traveling well and the time goes quick for you!
HB ~ hugs hun, I know what that is like. But keep trying, FX'd for your next go.
Hi to anyone I've missed. Sending out loads of :pink-babydust::stickyvibesboy:
AFM ~ Nothing new to report. Its our 4th year wedding anniversary today, despite everything that has been happening we will celebrate that we have each other and the wonderful 4 yrs we've been married. AS soon as DH is out of his neck brace we are going to go away for a nice weekend, before he goes back to work. We did manage to get one quiet round of B'Ding in which was hard with DH's brace etc (sorry if TMI) but he was keen to try and because I was ovulating we had a go LOL. So hoping once will be enough - highly doubtful but you just never know I guess =)
-
To say we are devastated is an understatement but only one of my eggs fertilised. We will get a phonecall around 9am tomorrow to see if it has survived the night and will be up to a 2 day transfer. Just to add insult to injury to the crappy cycle from hell. Has anyone else had heavy bleeding following epu? I was going through a pad an hour yesterday - is this normal? I am worried that if this little embie does make it to tomorrow, it'll have a rough time trying to implant because of the blood. This sucks.
-
Giant hugs Mel ~ I know it's hard but positive thoughts this one will make it. I will be :pray: for you! Perhaps check with them tomorrow about the bleeding but I will be hoping that it wont affect your transfer. I've had little bit of bleeding before, perhaps they just had little trouble removing the eggs. FX'd the bleeding will go before your transfer hun, all the best. <3
-
Melissa - I'm sorry you are having a hard time hun. I hope that egg makes it through the night. I can't imagine how you are feeling right now, but am here if you need to talk.
:comfort:
Loops - Happy wedding anniversary xx
Hi everyone x
afm - I spoke with my FS. Tomorrow I am having an ultra-sound instead in order to have a good look at this polyp. Her suggestion is to continue the cycle as Sun/Mon could be collection day, fertilise and freeze. I will have to have another hysteroscopy before an egg can be returned..........I am gutted. I cried in front of my boss! embarrassing! I am home now and trying to relax. After all there are lots of follies. I should be happy with that......I just keep wondering what the hell we have to do for things to run smoothly. This polyp should just not be there....
Hopefully the ultrasound will show nothing! What's the likelihood of that? Impossible?
Not coping today.
