Hey quick question. So EPU was Friday - 18 follies drained, loads of little ones left. Yesterday and today, have noticed crampy twinging round my tummybutton/ovaries. Feeling quite full and have put on 2.5 - 3kg since Fri. Do I need to do anything or just see how I feel?
GL Saffy with your FET, I hope this will be the one that gets you over the line. You are NOT going crazy but the multitude of meds would certainly make you feel like you are! Hang in there chick.
Fingers crossed Loops for a natural BFP so you can spend all those $$$'s on much more fun stuff.
Yogi, Welcome back. You are amazingly strong and resilient and I really wish you the world of success.
Melissa, from what I understand, the follies can continue to produce the estrogen which in turn can raise your levels. I would contact your clinic, and perhaps get them to do a blood test to check your estrogen and be on the lookout for OHSS as that is quite a dramatic increase over a couple of days. I am no expert and this may be wrong, but you had such a crazy cycle and outcome, I would not rule anything out and it's probably best to err on the side of caution. I hope you start to feel a little better soon xox
N2L - You must be worried sick about your little one. I hope your DD is on the mend. I can imagine that the stress of it all does not make for bd'ing with wild abandon..lol (as if ltttc doesn't help kill the passion on it's own sometimes).
Happybaby - are you starting to feel more yourself now. Hope all is well.
Hi to all you other girls
AFM - taking off for a day or two of sightseeing. Nice to get away and not think about ttc. Waiting on a few BT's to come back in regard to general health and will then try to sort out how I feel about when/if to start another FET.
I am just rudely butting in here after having a bit of a stalk. Just wanted to say hi and good luck to Loops and Yogi and some of the other names I recognise - tantee, saffy (i'm sure you don't remember me, but I think about you). Sending you big hugs and best wishes girls xoxoxox
Mel ~ hope you're feeling better today, I'm a bit confused though - did they collect 18 eggs?
Tantee ~ thanks hun! Enjoy your break and I hope you get fantastic results. Take care
Kaybee ~ good to see you, thanks for your wishes! Hugs. Hows everything with you, you are nearly due arent you? All the best!
AFM ~ I had some pink streaks yesterday arvo - hoping its implantation- then my temp this morning was 37.2 very high for the morning but that also could be due to still being a bit fluey, certainly not getting hopes up too much just yet. Although considering I believe I O'd only a few days ago it would be way to early for AF to be here. So yeh I'm quietly confident - perhaps its just our time at the moment. Just need one to eventually stick,
loops-goodluck chick I hope its a sticky one for you too ( when will you poas?) xx
kaybee- I remember you of course! How are you, thanks for stalking us lol xx
tantee- hope all is ok with the bt and enjoy not thinking about ttc ( if only!!)
melissa-has your tummy settled down??
hi yogi- wow, thats great, I know someone who got her 1st bfp ( after a long time) when she used intralipids ( i think she had a misc unfortunately but she was stoked to get the bfp) Any joy with the scan?
N2L- is your DD better? and more to the point did you catch the egg??
happybaby- how areyou??
afm- crossing my fingers for my scan tomorrow, but hopeful I am on track as have had ewcm start, and double checking w opks, they aregetting darker but not there yet thank god. I am feeling much happier- amazing what retail therapy, a massage, pedicure and 3 days off work will do for a girl lol!!
quick update from me, scan went well today- 3 good sized follies and lining 7mm ( I'm only cd9) so have had a blood test to look for LH surge and will have BT over the weekend until we get it, I'm sure it will be tomorrow or Sunday FX.
Dh has a boys trip organised for next week and he will be away for my transfer, which he is really, really disappointed about, it doen't bother me too much, mum can take me but I am conscious that men can feel left out as it is, so its a shame he won't be able to be there.
Have a great weekend everyone, I probably won't get back on cos I will be busy with work, but babydust for all your lovely ladies xxx
Hi girls, thanks again for all your thoughts...means a lot
Yeah i made it to transfer yesterday, after a 2 & half hour drive to sydney in the pouring rain...was pretty hairy and must admit i was not exactly nice & relaxed going in but thankfully we have our precious one on board, was only a 3 cell and to be honest am not holding out much hope. I did get to sneak in an acupuncture afterwards so if nothing else it helped me relax and i've been trying to get things back into perspective again. I have to be grateful that after 9 egg collections we have always made it to transfer, even if we are just down to 1 now, i know others struggle sometimes to get this far so i cant complain...i am still in with a shot!!!
Loops, so sorry to hear it didn't happen for you this time. I hope the money pressures are easing for you and that you can try ivf again soon. It totally sucks having the financial strains through all this as well, sending you big hugs
Melissa, glad to hear you are feeling better now, what a bad time you have had lately. Sorry that this cycle was so unkind to you, but sounds like you have a great attitude and looking forward to trying again...you are a strong woman and please be proud of yourself Enjoy your time off and good luck with the study too, what are you studying??
Mia, welcome and hope your ivf journey is short & sweet.
Happybaby, tantee, Saffy...thanks again for your thoughts and support. I'm sure you will help keep me sane over the next few weeks
Saffy, all the best for saturday, will be thinking of you xxx
Have a great day ladies, good things are just around the corner.
