Inshel - Sorry you are feeling so down. This TTC road we are on is not fair and I think your feelings are probably a normal response to an abnormal event! I hope the counsellor can help you out. Retail therapy sounds perfect and hopefully it will help you feel fresh for work. A psychologist at work believes in the 'faking it until you make it' concept. His belief is that you begin by acting how you want to feel and the rest follows on.
Minime - hopefully my EPU will be as smooth as yours. for your BT.
Hi to all the other ladies.
AFM: was out in the Yarra Valley at a cheese place..yum! The nurse called and I am triggering tonight at 9.20pm and EPU is Monday. It's kind of weird that the trigger is so time specific, it's not even rounded off to the nearest 15 mins.
Lisa - Yeah, mine was at 11:50pm and I am normally in bed at 9. I went to bed and woke up again. At least you will probably be able to stay up for yours! Good luck with everything!!!!
Well we had our transfer done today 2 x 9 cell little embies put back in. I was quite worried about the transfer as I'm still feeling quite swollen but it went fine. I had a really back experience a couple of goes back where one of the other doctors performed the transfer & since then my own doctor comes in to do it for me even if she's not rostered on - lovely lady!! So of the 10 fertailsed eggs, 3 had stopped growing overnight. With the two that we put back in that leaves us with 5 potential freezies. They will be grown to a 5 day blastocyst so I will hear on Monday how many have survived.
I was quite sore the day of the egg collection (Wed) then felt really good by Friday but I had my first pregnyl1500 booster on Fri & since then have really bloated back up. Apparently this is quite normal but my doctor said to call in on Mon morning when I'm due my second booster as they may advise me to only take half a shot.
Good luck to everyone with their egg collection, I will pop back in to see how you all go!!
after my post recently about the spotting that i was having that isnt usual for me,since mid week i have been queasy on and off and boobs have been hurting some.even coughing hurts lol.end of the day i cant wait to get a bra off.thinking i may do a hpt in next day or two.but knowing my luck it will be neg
Lisa - really hope that your EPU goes well. I remember thinking that about the times too (haven't had an EPU in a couple of years though) and when I got to the hospital they were running late! I freaked, but then the doc said it didn't matter - so why the specific trigger time then? Anyway (rambling again) - good luck.
LittleMM - are you feeling any better / less bloated? You got a great haul of eggs and sounds like they're going well. Anyway, hope the TWW is kind to you! (I'll be in it with you very soon)
AFM have had lots of family things on this weekend with my pregnant SIL (the one who's due when my bub was due in November). It's so so hard- she's showing now and getting lots of comments from everyone. I really wish them the best but seeing them just reminds me of everything I've been through and of how unfair it all is. It's the next few days as I dwell on it that will be hard. I really don't want to be one of those women so obsessed with having a baby that they just aren't any fun anymore. Must put feelings aside and smile ( inside)
Kaybee, just a quick strong bear hug for you. I can so empathise. A friend at work that did her first IVF go 3 wks after me and continued on successfully and had her baby 3 wks ago...I was quietly happy to see her off on maternity leave. I'm sending you all the strength I can muster.
Morning Ladies,
Minime - Goodluck for your BT tomorrow. Stay positive. easier said than done we all know. lol
Lisa - Hope they get a great lot of eggs for you today.
Littlemissmoo - GL in your TWW. How have your other 5 gone. Are they going to be able to freeze them all?
Trubabe - Have my FXed for your. signs are looking good.
AFM - nothing going on and am not even looking for signs as I know I cannot possibly be prego this month and have got my appointment with the co-ordinating sister on Wednesday morning. Thankfully I have a very high volumne and busy job to keep my mind busy while I wait for each step.
Good luck to all and thinking of everyone else who is waiting for the next everything.
