Bex and Tillygirl ~ congratulations :dance: and all the best :stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl:

Hi girls officially now in 2ww again.. After a long 5 days i
Have 2 onboard and looking for my miracle this time as it seems my eggs r not
great quality so the little Embies struggled ended up with one morula
and one 12 cell both grade 3!!
Day one down and 13 sleeps to go, aaargh!
Not too sure there is anyone else around.
Anyway congrats to the girls with BFP and to everyone else sorry but
don't give up hope x

Welcome to the two week wait Blossom!! Lovely to see you in here again :)

I am officially not in here anymore but AF hasn't arrived (despite a couple of days cramps) so I am kind of in limbo...I know i am not pregnant but deep down I can't help hoping that maybe the low hcg has risen.....

I have a review appointment with the fs today at 3pm so I am thinking if I am not bleeding by then maybe I should ask for another BT???? I am 15dp2dt and cd 30 today. Oh yeah, I did have a speck of blood on the loo paper last night. Literally a speck...

Hi Ladies
GL to those still in the TWW, FX'd tight!

N2L ~ hope you're ok - hugs

Hi girls just checking if im the only one in this lovely 2ww??
x

Good luck Blossom. Fingers crossed for you! It is very quiet in here at the moment.

I have my next appt with my FS on 13th June to see when I'll be having my next transfer. I have 3 frosties at the moment. I have never had a frozen transfer. Can anyone tell me what is involved in this process?

TMCL xx

Hi Blossom,

It is very quiet in here at the moment so I just wanted to send you some :pink-babydust: & :stickyvibesboy:!!

I hope the 2ww isn't driving you too insane :hug:

Hi Ladies
I'm not currently doing AC but I am in a natural TWW - so I hope to join you if thats ok. will add some numbers :) as it is pretty quiet in here. I did test this morning and of course BFN :( It was a Lullaby Conceptions - does anyone know if these can pick up HCG early or should I have waited until AF due? My cycles are 32-36 days. This is the 1st time ive used this brand.

TMCL ~ goodluck with your appointment on the 16th!

Blossom ~ hope you're doing ok in your TWW, :pray: for you that you get a BFP! :pink-babydust::stickyvibesboy:

Tillygirl ~ how are you going? Hope those levels are climbing and climbing!

Coral ~ good to see you floating around. I noticed your troubles were male factor as well and you got a BFP and now have a beautiful baby boy - congrats! Can I ask, did you do something different that cycle? or should I say did DH do anything different? I just feel like we are never going to get there and may need a bit of reassurance that it can happen :)

Hi girls well ive been doing ok but today woke up and it is day 7 after ET last wednesday and had some brown discharge then bleeding which has stopped now but has made me a little nervous??? Trying to remain positive no real symptons as yet just tired and very cranky (according to my DH)...
Loops would love to have you join me in here so quiet havent used that brand so of no help im afraid! Ive decided not to go near those evil sticks this time (but i have one week to go so see how we go next week, he he)!
Coral thanks for the positive thoughts and popping in to send me luck i tell you i need all i can get!
Have a good day girls x

Hi Everyone

Im new to BB and IVF, this is my first cycle and I'm at day 10 in the horrid tww... I had a day 5 transfer. I'm tempted to do a HPT today.... Blood test is Monday.

Hi Shan i say stay away from those evil sticks but i crack every time going to try to not do it this time!! Are you on trigger shots as they can give false positives which i got last time and that is horrible...
Have you had any symptoms at all??

Thanks Blossom ~ ohh :crossfingers: tight that it was implantation bleeding for you. I get your hesitation and concern. Goodluck staying away from those nasty POAS's LOL

Hi ShanD ~ All the best, :crossfingers: for you as well. Hope 1st go works a charm for you! I'd be very tempted too If I were you, I just can't seem to help myself. But if you can stop yourself its probably best because it probably is a bit too early. Goodluck for Monday.

xo

The only trigger shot I had was just over two weeks ago now before egg pick up so it should be out of my system now.

I'm on Crinone gel which I am not enjoying one bit. Blossom, I think you said you had brown discharge, Ive had that for a couple of days now too - not pleasant at all, but apparently 'normal'. I sitll have minor cramping every now and then from the gel and my chest is feeling larger than normal, but other than that nothing really... I felt niggly pains for about three days around when implantation would have been taking place, but no bleeds or anything like that.

I'll see how I go in resisting the HPT lol!!! I was told today would be the earliest day you could get a BFP... as it's 14 days past egg pick up. Time will tell I guess, its out of our hands now. :D

Shan if you have no trigger shots then i definately wouldnt be able to resist... Let us know if you cave... Fingers crossed x

Loops – Thank you :hug: Ohhh… good luck :goodluck: - I hope this is your month!

I must admit I am a little addicted to BB and I have an appointment this Saturday to get a referral back to our FS to try for #2 :D.

We did allot different when we got our BFP compared to our first two attempts. Here is a quick list (I hope this is ok to post in here N2L):

DH
- Cut out all Alcohol/ refined sugars and caffeine (including chocolate)
- Drank more water (he used to drink none!)
- Ate pumpkin seeds
- Underwent acupuncture weekly
- Took menevit
- Took tablets from our acupuncturist
- Ate more fresh vege and fruit

# We didn’t see an increase in his 2million count but the quality was much, much better (hence the 5 snow bubs)

ME
- Cut out all Alcohol/ refined sugars/ caffeine (including chocolate – I ate carob)
- Drank more water (bout 1 ½ liters p/day)
- Ate only full fat dairy
- Underwent acupuncture (lead up, before & after transfer)
- Took elevit (did this for all cycles)
- Ate more fresh vege and fruit
- Had honey every day
- DTD night before
- Transferred 2 x embies
- I stayed on bed rest for 3 days (at least I stayed on couch rest and watched allot of TV!)
- Avoided all hot showers (made sure temp was only luke warm and did not place my belly under shower stream and kept time short)
- Kept feet warm (at suggestion of my acupuncturist)
- Tried to stress less about the outcome ( Yeah right! That one didn’t go so well, ha, ha :doh: !)

ShanD – Good Luck! It’s a hard one… to POAS or not to POAS?? I am with Loops… I am a POAS’er, although I was a nervous wreck until my BT confirmed my BFP so make sure if you do that you can handle the wait or test at your clinic early if you get those magical two lines (:pray:'ing that you do if you test!)

Blossom – :pray:’ing that it was implantation bleeding for you…. when is your BT?

TMCL – I have only done 1 x FET and that was a medicated cycle. If I remember correctly I had BT’s leading up to transfer and wore estrogen patches to thicken my lining as it was a little on the thin side. I used progesterone support as well. Good Luck :goodluck: for your up-and-coming transfer and I hope it is a sticky one!

If It were me I'd cave ~ can't wait to hear - hoping its a BFP for you! Sounds like you may gave some good signs there.

I just spoke to my nurse about when the next rounds will be that I may be able to do. If I started the pill now I could do the July cycle. Bummer we dont have the money. So looks like it will be September. So now I'll be hoping it flies around. I'm happy to have a trarget time :)

Sorry Coral ~ I just missed your post. Thanks so much for all that Info hun, I'm going to print it and get my husband to read it. I know he wants a child almost as much as I do but I feel I really have to push him and pester to get him to do things. The biggest one for him will be to stop smoking again and give up or drink a lot less alcohol.
I really really appreciate your sharing - thank you. All the best for #2 - that's exciting!

just sending sticky vibes to all in the TWW. good luck. hope for some more bfp's in here soon. x
