    Hi Bec

    I'm using Pregnyl 1500 to support luteal phase too. I had a false positive when I tested too early last month and recommend waiting 6 or 7 days after the last HCG shot. It's enough to drive you completely mad of course, but I really think that testing before the 6 day mark is pointless.
    Best of luck and have a happy new year!

    Thanks LMM. I sort of thought I was clutching at straws, and getting my hopes up for maybe nothing! When did your pg symptoms go away after the shot? I've got the whole hog, which I wouldn't mind if I am actually pg!

    Thanks for your response,

    Bec

    Hey Bec,

    It's probably a little harder for me to gauge as I have never been pregnant before, but I think I had a feeling by about 5 days after the second shot that AF was on the way. It may not matter for you now (fingers crossed!!!) but did you know there is some shortage of Pregnyl 1500 at the moment? I have one shot left which I am hoping to use later in the week... but NO chemists or hospitals in Sydney or in my regional area can get any from their distributors at the moment for some reason!! I may have to manage with one shot this month...

    I hope you're UTD let us know how you go.
    LMM

    I had to get the 5000 shots from Melbourne IVF and just use .3ml. How frustrating is it?! I nearly cried after the 3rd chemist said they couldn't get it!

    I have really sore BB's, sort of heaviness in my stomoach and I'm so tired it's not funny. I'm also overly senstive to smells and have on again off again nausea. I'm hoping it's not just the pregnyl (it's been the whole TWW!) but I'm telling myself that's ALL it is. Isn't it funny how we try to protect ourselves?

    Anyway, thanks so much for the info. Maybe if you ring your FS and tell them about the pregnyl they could 'hook you up' with some? GL for your cycle!

    All the best for today Nicole, will be thinking of you and cant wait to hear your happy news!!!

    Hi Bec - I think it can vary from person to person on how they metabolise the pregnyl. From my experience the 1500 pregnyl is mostly gone after 3-4 days (shows up as just a very slight weak line on HPT) Best thing is to maybe wait 2 days and do another HPT to see if its getting darker or lighter. I've been pregnant 4 times before (but m/c all) and for those postivie results I had a definite 2nd line from 12 DPO. Your symptoms sound very promising...

    As i said, i've always had a definite 2nd line from 12 DPO...and its been a positive results...so I did a HPT yesterday at 12 DPO and.....i'm a bit wary about saying this in case i jinx it....but I got a clear strong 2nd line!!! BT is tomorrow. Not getting excited as i've now been here 5 times before and its always ended in tears...i will just keep praying that EVENTUALLY our luck may change?

    Have a good day ladies

    Great news Yogi!!! Congrats Sounds very promising and I wish you the very best for your BT

    Bec, I know.... I got tears in my eyes at the chemist about the Pregnyl too. I had ordered it in advance thinking that they would have more luck supplying it in Sydney (I live in regional NSW) and they had said on the phone they would have it when I got there!! They felt so bad that they didn't charge me for the other things I was buying. My FS is closed until January 10th, so no hope there either. Do you think I should do the one shot I have on 6DPO?? Taking one has to be better than nothing, just not 100% which day would be better.
    Your symptoms sound excellent... I didn't have all of those signs when I used the Pregnyl and ended up with a BFN... crossing fingers for you!
    I finally got a +OPK this morning (CD21) so there may be some hope left this cycle

    hello to everyone else, hope you're enjoying the festive season.

    Nicole, thinking of you xxx

    I'm still "feeling" pregnant at this stage...mild dull cramping sensation, like a "presence" in my womb same as the other times. Just pray that it continues as it should for the next 8 mths!!!

    Nicole, I came on to reply to your previous post but didn't realise you had edited it. Then i read your blog...are you ok? Are you on progesterone support? Maybe they could up the dose if you are or start you on them asap? Its such a scary time, my heart goes out to you as i know that sinking sickening feeling in the pit of your stomach. Just try to stay calm and pray that your little embie is hangin in there.

    Thinking of you xxx

    Thanks for your input ladies, I really appreciate it. LMM, I'd take the first one I guess and then hope that it give the body a good boost for implantation? Not sure.

    GL Nicole & Yogi, I've been where you girls are a couple of times and it's hard to stay positive, but I wish you all the luck in the world for a H&H pg.

    Thanks again,

    Bec

    Oh nicole i'm so sorry nothing can ever prepare yourself when going through this awful experience, there is no right or wrong way of coping. Just go easy on yourself and allow yourself to feel all the emotions as they come. We are all here for you take care hun xxx
