Woohoo congrats greenslw so happy for you xo
Congratulations Greenslw!!!
yay green x congrats x
Thanks all I can hardly believe it must have someone looking out for me as DF was pretty clear this was it.... Now to keep my mouth shut at work until at least 4 months my boss is very anti babies as there has been 6 in 12 months but that isn't my issue........ Can't wait to feel really pg. now begins all. The worry lol but I have promised myself to enjoy it all this time..
Well no luck for me this month, af arrived today. Off to Melbourne for work for a couple of days, don't want to go for some reason especially over the last few months I get very teary when I am away from dh, I will miss him so much, pathetic I know!!!!!
Good luck everyone else in here I hope you have a good outcome xo
I'm so sorry Kerbear - hugs for you babe... I hope the time will fly by and that you'll be too busy to miss DH... xxx
Kerbear sorry to hear that I hope you get to enjoy some of the nice things Melbourne has to offer.
Well it's official 294.5 HCG and 31 for progesterone
Greenslw! Congratulations!!! So very happy for you and will stalk away to see how you go xx
Okay girls, just got results back from clinic and HCG has risen to 3345 in a week! And progesterone is now 77! Pretty chuffed. Hopping out of the TWW, onto the BFP in February...
Rai, how are you going?
Juniper - any positive signs yet? Hoping for BFP's for both of you! xxx
fantastic news me4ever x
Great to hear me4ever! :D
Congrats!!
Kerbear I will drown my sorrows with you tomorrow :) yay!!!
So happy me4ever and greenslw :leap: looks good!!
me4ever, great doubling time! I'd love to hear how your first scan goes. :goodluck:
Afm, one more hcg booster shot to go (tomorrow night). Longest.2ww.ever!
Congratulations to everyone that has their BFP, hoping that everyone else is right behind.
I am guessing I can offically join this thread as I have my 5day transfer on Friday, I have my first of three pregynl injections tonight.
I am feeling nervous that it won't work but a little excited (not as excited as the first two times), doing the pregnyl will also stop me from HPT too early so hopefully my mind will be totally not in TTC mode...NOT!
xxx
Anyone else in here?? TWW soooooo boring!
I am Hummingbird, sort of!!! I am trying to keep my mind off it but it is not working! I have my blood test on the 18th which is still a week away :( I am finding I am trying to find symptoms that may not even be real, if that makes any sense. I am worried as last month I got a positive but the HCG was low and then dropped off over a few days so that I was back to it, but I am now remembering how I felt last time before the blood test and the symptoms, it's driving me a little insane actually. How are you going?
Hi Kel my blood test is the same day as you :) fingers crossed we both get the BFP!!
I am sorry about last month :( hopefully this ones a sticky one. Are you going to avoid hpt this time?
I'm a bit more relaxed this cycle as I don't want to get my hopes up but often ill feel a twinge and think 'Oohhh implantation??' But then I've been feeling those twinges whenever I think of my uterus, even before my fet was done lol...
I'm using pregnyl so anything I feel can be explained by that and can't do a hpt, I was thinking of doing them a couple of days after my last injection to see it fade away ad hopefully get darker but I thought that will just start an obsession so haven't bought any. Are you taking anything pessaries/pregnyl etc?
xx
Woo hoo same day lets hope we can both celebrate. :D I do have some HPT's in my bathroom and I always get tempted but then decide not to. I like to try and stay positive. It is hard though as this is our last embryo, we don't have any more in the freezer. We could do a stim cycle again but we don't have that much money again, we have survived FET's but wouldn't survive the $8000 upfront cost to harvest again :( so we need this one to stick more than ever!! I am on Progynova three times a day and pessaries two times a day. I am struggling as I have had some tugging twinging cramps but I get excited but then think "oh it could just be the progesterone". This whole two week wait really plays with your head! :(
Hi Kel82 and Hummingbird, I'm joining you in the tww im 3dpo and trying not to panic as i have no symptoms at all yes i know very early but cant help it hahaha, Wishing both of you the very best in our tww and hoping you get your BFP.
Hi rai, I love your thinking!! :). All the best for a BFP!!
Thanks Kel82 i'm trying to keep positive i had one of my iui's on my birthday and can start testing on my son's and nanna's birthday so i'm really hoping they are going to be
lucky for me lol. Still got nothing no symptoms at all, when do you ladies start feeling symptoms?
Hi rai, so last month when I got my positive I had slight cramps like period type and that was 2-3 days after a 5day transfer. I then felt nauseous and extremely tired having a nap everyday for about three hours and still sleeping through the night, this went from about 4 days after transfer to two days before the blood test. That is why it came back low I would say it came unstuck. This time I have had slight cramping the last couple of days, no nauseous feelings but a little bit of heartburn and I am feeling quite tired today and my breasts are heavy and sore. It is so hard though cause I wonder if this is all from the progesterone pessaries?? And also each pregnancy is different so what I felt last month I may not even feel this time.
Rai - I think all those dates must be a good sign, I'm crossing my fingers you get a bfp :)
Kel - You are right, each preg is different...With my son symptoms didn't kick in till about 6 weeks (and then had morning sickness till about 22weeks!) but I had a chem pregnancy about a year ago and felt MS before af was even due and did a test a few days in a row and all + but didn't stick :( so u can never really tell. It Seems more symptoms don't necessarily mean better pregnancy iykwim...
I did my last pregnyl injection tonight.... Woot! Woot!!! Now just to wait around calmly for another 6 days.... :/
I have a big wedding on the weekend...tried a dress on today and sadly my belly seems to have grown since last time I wore it so back in the cupboard it went and will take another one, i will blame the pregnyl and not my lack of exercise lately or my icecream addiction. Trying to think of reasons why I won't be drinking (am deciding if 1 or maybe 2 stretched out would be ok??)
xx
Hummingbird, what are the pregnyl injections suppose to do? Are you on anything else as well?
Hi Kel
I've been told it contains HCG which tells ur body it's pregnant, I've looked it up and this can explain better than me...
" So doing the pregnyl injections during the luteal phase is to trick your body to think you're pregnant, hence triggering the corpus luteums (the shells of the follicles where the eggs were released from) in the ovaries to make progesterone as if you're pregnant."
The only downside is that you can't do a hpt as it will be positive, so I will probably wait till the day of my BT as ill be at work and would rather have a clue before getting that call, the nurse said I should get AF on Sunday but pregnyl often delays AF so all I can do is hope I forget AF and get a + blood test!
Thanks!! It is crazy all the different things we go through, I often get really upset as I think getting pregnant and being a mum is meant to be the most natural thing a woman can do. Doing IVF is so clinical but I desperately want a child so you just do what you have to do I guess. :). Being on here has helped a lot though! I want to do a HPT but I don't want to at the same time
kel82 when can you start poas? good luck FX
Hummingbird Thank You, good luck with waiting around calmly to poas i have 2 days till i start and i'm counting down but then i'm a poas addict i have just ordered 80 and
found 7 so i have lots of sticks to pee on lol. Your right i blame the pregnyl too not my chocolate addiction for my weight gain lol. Everyone has a different thought on
what is right or wrong but 1 or 2 wont hurt i went to america when i had just fallen pg with ds2 and went to vegas ( trip was planned before i found out i was pg) and
my dr told my a few drinks wont hurt but its completly up to you hope you have a good time.
afm no symptoms really just counting down to start poas which i will start on sunday
Hi rai, I am not sure when exactly I can do a test but I don't do them as I am scared of the result, as much as I would love to know I am petrified! :(
kel82 i know how you feel but i just assume its going to be negative because that's the result i always get since ttc #4 it's driving me insane surely ttc should not
be this b***** hard. It took 3.5 years with ds3 i dont think i could handle ttc for that long again its already been 12 months this time it's just so depressing.
Hope you dont have to wait much longer for your BFP xxx
Hi rai, wow that is a long time, you have done so well to keep going cycle after cycle and not give up but I suppose it is not something you can't give up on. I need this cycle to work more than ever as we have no frosties left, we had 10 collected, 6 fertilised, but only three transfers the others didn't survive the thaw. It is not that we can't physically harvest again we just can't afford $8000 again to do a full stim cycle :(
kel82 i'm keeping everything crossed you get your BFP this cycle, I completly understand i would love to do icsi but we just cant afford it that is why i'm doing iui's
which from what i understand does not have a high rate of success but then i think its the luck of the draw as someone we know got pg there first iui cycle. Really hoping you
get your BFP xxxx
How does an iui work? I am hoping there is something else they can do for us if this one doesn't work.
kel82 i will try to explain but i'm sure there is someone on here that can give you a better understanding but i will try. You can either do clomid or injectables it just depends on
you i respond really well to clomid i just dont fall pg on it so i have so far had 2 or 3 cycles of clomid then this is my 2nd or 3rd cycle of injectables i have heard injectables work
better but i think that just depends on you and your circumstances. Once your follies get to 1.8cm they trigger you on clomid i got triggered day 11 but on injectables i
get triggered day 7 they then inseminate you, I'm using my dp frozen sperm as his away alot working and it cost me $400 to freeze and $150 for the insem and then perseries
cost me about $160 for 2 weeks worth, i'm doing 2 insems 2 days in a row so it cost altogether $460 and i get $46 back from medicare. I know i have proberly not explained too well but that's the gist of it.
I just thought i'm not sure if i'm allowed to put the prices on here if not i'm sorry
IUI is a step back from IVF. Instead of taking the eggs out of you and fertilising them in a lab, you ovulate and the washed semen sample is deposited in your uterus, so you rely on natural fertilisation. We're in the same boat as rai - we'd rather be doing ICSI, but we can only afford IUI at this time, so that's what we're doing. If you have no male factor problems, the IUI doesn't increase your chances all that much over timed intercourse, but if you do have male factor issues then it can help a little (but overall success rates are typically significantly lower than IVF).
Thanks rai and juniper, I know I shouldn't be thinking ahead as though I have got a BFN but it is really hard. My BT is Monday and I really don't know what the outcome will be, I had sore heavy breasts and a little nausea during the week but that has stopped today ??? I have a AMH level of 1,1 so our FS said to just go straight to IVF as we don't know how much time I have. He did say we could try that sperm washing technique but he wasn't very hopeful of the success. Oh well, I guess I just have to wait to more days and then see what happens!
Kel, my AMH is similar (1.5 last July), so IVF is certainly the better option for us from a medical perspective, we just don't have the money for it, so we're doing what we can instead...
Juniper, do you mind me asking how many cycles you have done and how long you have to been TTC? Also, which clinic do you go to?
Anyone tested?? I am tempted but too scared, if its negative ill be devo and if its positive ill be wondering if its just the pregnyl. I'm kind of enjoying the last couple of days hoping I am I just don't want to rust that bubble. I've been feeling a bit different this time (though I think I probably do each time!) been feeling a bit seedy and having different sort of twinges not like period pain and know it could be the pregnyl but its not getting lesser as you would think it should if it was, or it could just be all in my head :(
Rai - Your iui is a bargain compared to mine, I was about $1300 out f pocket per cycle...
You only need one beautiful sperm to do its thing, fingers crossed it works
