all the best Kristie - hope it works 1st go!
Hi ladies :hello:
Just thought i would join you all here. I had a day 2 transfer on wednesday (just the one lonely embryo) with my 9th egg collection. Not really confident and haven't even bothered to book a blood test yet!!
Look forward to hearing some happy UTD news in here over the next few weeks! :goodluck:
Have a nice weekend everyone!
Yogi

Hey girls. Just letting you know I followed the pattern of last weekend with what looks like a chemical BFP. Retesting on Monday but she told me 3 times she expected me to start bleeding over the weekend and mentioned that miracles do happen. Sigh. It's never a good sign when they start talking miracles...
Good luck to you all for your own journeys!
Hi everyone- I finally made it in here! Just had a transfer of a blasty- everything went perfectly and it thawed perfectly according to the experts, who were very positive ( unllike myself!) Can't wait to go mental with you all!!
JosieJo- sory to hear its not going well, I agree hearing about miracles is not a good sign, I've had a chemical bfp before its very disappointing, hugs for you xx
hey girls,
just have a question for you all that hopefully you can help me with, i am 7dp2dt and for the last 3 days i have been getting really nauseas for around 4-5 hours a day then it completely disappears. Have any of you experienced this after a transfer? I was wondering if i was coming down with something but i don't feel sick and it is not there constantly so i am totally clueless.
TIA
It is most likely the drugs you are taking. What luteal phase support are you on? (eg. Progesterone, pregnyl, etc)
It really is too early for morning sickness as implantation would only occur about now.
N2L- i was on pregnyl with 1shot on the sunday of my transfer and the other shot 3 days after transfer, i really think i may be coming down with somthing as i have been on pregnyl for a little while before egg collection aswell and i had no side effects, i really hope if i am getting sick that it doesnt affect my chances of this working.
hi kristie- being sick won't have any effect on your transfer, so try not to stress ( impossible I know).
Hows everyone else going?? I never get cramping during a tww, so lying on the couch watching tv all day but feel like a fraud cos i feel healthy! Trying to take it easy as possible, theres a long way to go though til my BT though.
FX for everyone to get a bfp xx
JosieJo :hug: its so frustrating having a chem pg, but i will still be praying for good results on monday:crossfingers: honestly you just never ever know in this crazy game!! Miracles really can happen...hang in there xxx
Saffy :leap: Yaaaa for PUPO!! Sounds like you are in a great position with a perfect blastie on board...i really hope he/she decides to stick around for the long long haul!!
Kristie, i hope you feel better soon and you aren't coming down with anything? Try not to stress if you do feel a bit off over the next few weeks, i have seen ladies who have been quite ill during 2WW and still managed a lovely sticky BFP...rest up and take it easy :bedtime:...its a good reason to curl up in bed with a good book anyway!! :D
Have a great night!
xx
Hello all,
Well only 4 days to go for me until i have my BT and find out for sure about my 1st IVF transfer. Unlike many other ppl it seems, i have no desire to test early and then spend time evaluating results- are they correct, are they not- i am quite content to just patiently wait til thursday. Like most of you gals, learned patience is an unintended positive side effect of trying too long to conceive.
I have had very powerful cramps in my uterus area since transfer, and in particularly over the past few days. Im trying not to analyse it too much, but a couple times within the day i will distract myself to just dwell on it. If i didnt usually get these between ovulation and AF i would feel positive, however i normally do get these cramps- ever since my lap anyway. Maybe to do with the endo? I have no idea, and no one ever seems to give answers, but all i know is, i do get these cramps. This cycle though, it definitely feels more pronounced than normal. But hey, im not naive, i know it could also be the prelude to AF comin along....but anyway, its a lovely little distraction during the day to dwell on the positives for a bit.
I am very aware that this thursday will either be an unbelievably celebratory momentous day, or conversely, a day that is very much the opposite. I am aware of this huge divide in the emotional possibilities here...just taking it in my stride....
Kristie and Saffy- all the best for your tww- im hoping very much that you get your BFPs we are all with you!
B.
Just popping my head in to wish you all the very best for your BT ladies!
Bianeczka, I don't know if the cramping is to do with with endo or not, but I had cramping on and off during my 2WW and of course I thought AF was on her way, but I couldn't wait and I tested 11dpt and I had my very faint line. My BT was scheduled 5 days later but I already had an appointment with my FS which I made weeks earlier in case that transfer didn't work and the FS did the BT then and there and I got the good news that night. GL sweetie, I hope you get your BFP!
hi girls,
how is everyone going?
I am trying to distract myself from thinking about the tww , today I went clothes shopping and tomorrow driving to Melbourne to go to Ikea, hopefully all this retail therapy will make the days pass quickly- as if!!
I *think* I have been having cramping this evening, not v strong but who knows...
Good luck to all the girls with BT this week, anyone going to POAS beforehand?? Or do you have willpower???
STICKYVIBES for everyone xxxx
Hey JosieJo,
I'm really sorry to hear your news, hun :hug:. I was hoping that you would be the one to change the luck in here...
:pray:'ing that you will recieve a nice surprise at you next beta and that your numbers turn around. Thinking of you.. :hug:
Good Luck :goodluck: to all the other ladies in the 2ww and sending you all lots and lots of :pink-babydust:!
Hi all!
Saffy, sounds like promising implantation cramping :crossfingers: I always had mild cramps around this time when i've fallen pg before...i have a really good feeling for you!
Wish i could say the same for me though :shakehead: not positive at all this time as already preparing for a negative. In crazy mixed-up way of thinking i'm half hoping for a negative so as to not risk another possible miscarriage!!!...its a f&%*ed way of thinking really and i honestly wonder why we keep pushing on, but then when i think of stopping all this ivf and walking away it really scares me!!! To think that its a very real possibility that i may NEVER have a baby, NEVER carry a pregnancy to term and feel a little person kicking inside me and NEVER having that special bond between mother & baby...well i just honestly dont know how i will live the rest of my life with such a big dark hole in my heart. I know that the pain of that loss will never go away and then i get pi$$ed off at the universe for doing this to me!
Sorry for this downer post...i know this is probably not the best place to dump all this as i want to try and stay positive on here for everyone. Sorry. :redface:
I'm just a sad Yogi bear today :cry:
Yogi Bear, I couldn't read and not reply hun (and I 'm just a stalker here so you probably don't know me :redface: ) I wanted to send you a big hug and tell you that I hope with all my heart that you will be able to realise your dream one day, hopefully soon. I have everything crossed for you and hope the universe is a little kinder to you :hug::hug::hug:
saffy- i am not going to have the will power to wait until my better, i will for sure poas before hand...
Yogi- you will have your miracle one day, its not fair that this happens to us, your such a strong person and everything you have been through will be worth it in the end.
As for me i am 9dp2dt and am wondering when will i be able to test and get an accurate result, this is my first ivf so i am so confused about how long you have to wait.
Kristie, some girls don't test, but unfortunately I just can't stand the suspense even if I am going to get a negative result (I am a poas addict) so I tested 11dpt in my last cycle (I had a blastie transferred) and I got a very faint line then. GL hun. hope it's a BFP for you!
GL to all the lovely ladies in the 2WW!
Yogi - Just wanted to offer you a big :hug: being pregnant after a m/c is such a roller coaster and your fears are completely normal. As much as I want to be pregnant again I'm also so nervous about being pregnant again because I don't want to go through another m/c.
Saffy - I'm a POAS addict, no way I could ever wait!
Really hope we have some wonderful big fat sticky positives in here soon :hug:
:hug: yogi bear -I had this conversation with myself a few week ago when i was having a rough time, and confronted some of my fears about never having a child- its a tough one. I don't know the answer, but afterwards i felt a little bit better and knew i would survive if it came to it- but it obviously isn;t the outcome any of us want. And it isn't fair that good people get put in this situation. Please feel free to say anything you want in here, this thread is for all the bad and good about the tww, we are all feeling the same things i'm sure.
Theres no reason to beleive you will get a negative, so don't count yourself out at this stage- sending all of us :stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl: and a big :grouphug:
We can do it girls :pray: bfps here we come
JosieJo - so sorry to hear. I too thought you were going to have lady luck with you. So sorry it was not to be. Big hugs.:grouphug:
YogiBear - so sorry to hear that you are going through such a rough patch. Just wanted to send you lots of positive vibes and wish you all the luck in the world for this cycle.:goodluck:
kristie86 - loads of luck for your upcoming BT. Everything crossed for you. I usually manage to resist the temptation to POAS until the night before my test - only because I know that no matter the result I won't believe it anyway and I'll go insane in the process. Good luck xx :crossfingers:
Saffy - Love your positivity - well done you! Really hope that this is your time. Everything crossed.:pray:
Dump trucks of :pink-babydust: and :stickyvibesgirl: to all you lovely ladies who are in the 2WW.
AFM back to do another FET this month. Think I am at about CD10 tomorrow so hope to see you all in here soon.xx
YogiBear - I wish I new what to say to help but I know sometimes there are no words that can comfort.... thinking of you and I hope you are feeling a little bit better :hug:
I am sending you extra :pink-babydust:, :stickyvibesgirl: & :pray:'s that your little one is snuggling in nice and tight :hug:
Bianeczka- :goodluck::goodluck::crossfingers: for tomorrows BT, please let us know the result so we can celebrate with you ( thinking positive here )
KMond- great hopefully you will be here sooner rather than later, good luck!
Kristie - have you poas yet? If you are 12dpo now it would probably be an alright time but don't let me influence you, the longer you wait the better chance of a bfp I suppose! GL, when is your blood test?
Yogibear- hope things are feeling better for you-:hug:
afm- trying not to obssess but its not working!! I think i had some more cramping last night but DH had just come home after being away for a week so wasn't paying proper attention , also very emotional yesterday, crying over nothing
hi everyone else, thanks for stalking us!!
:stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl::2ww:
saffy- I am trying to leave it until friday morning as my bt is on saturday morning so that way i will not have a long wait to find out for sure either way.
Kmond- yep i am the same as you and going to leave POAS until the day before.
Hope everyone else is going ok in the 2ww, hoping everyone gets the BFP that we all deserve.
Afm- im really not sure which way it is going to go, i feel normal with no more cramping or twitches the only things different are i have sensitive boobs which i dont normally get and also needing to go to the toilet alot more then usual also i still have the nausea for a few hours a day but apart from that i feel great and i just dont know what to make of it. At least i dont have to much longer to wait.
fx to everyone and hopefully we start seeing lots of BFP'S in here.
Thanks for the uplifting vibes and general supportive banter, however today i got my AF so i guess its a BFN for me. To top the week off also, i just found out that a relative is pregnant, just to kick me when im down. I feel like throwing in the towel and living a hedonistic lifestyle travelling the world with hubby without the burden of children (i just think that, i dont mean it though). But right now i feel like the universe doesnt see me as a fit mother, im upset, angry and disappointed that somone in our family, who was first introduced to us at my wedding, is now pregnant whilst ive been trying since our wedding 3 years ago. But that's life, feels the whole world has bypassed me, people who never even wanted kids either and who werent even in a stable relationship. Life is not fair and never will be....but reading your posts Yogi Bear, and seeing what you have gone through (17??!!) i guess my piddly little one attempt seems like nothing. But i really dont want to be on this IVF bandwagon, dont want to be a life-r on it. All the best girls, surely someone in this thread needs good news.....take care....B. x
bianeczka- big hugs for you, its never the result we want to get. I completely understand the feeling you get about finding out someone in the family is pregnant, Since we started TTC i have had my BIL + wife have 2 kids which were accidents, Then the other SIL + Husband only 18yr had an accident she then went and spent 3months away from her husband to be with her mum because she couldn't or didnt want to deal with a baby and the mother raised the baby for the first few months, Then to top it all off before the bub was even 1yr they went and got pregnant again on purpose. I was furious at this and still am as u can kinda tell because she still hasn't grown up and still cant handle being a mother to the one bub and goes home to mum every time she or bub is sick. Instead of staying at home and dealing with it like an adult. You want to be a wife and mother you need to grow up a little.
Sorry that this turned into a little rant lol. I think it is hard for anyone that is going through so much to have a baby to hear of anyone being pregnant even if you couldn't be happier for the person there is always something inside saying why wasn't it my turn,It doesn't make us selfish or rude or inappropriate it is just our feelings, and the amount of hormones racing through our body we can sometimes not choose our feelings lol...
But keep believing and your precious miracle will find you soon, believing is all we can really do when it is no longer in our hands.
bianeczka so sorry to hear that hun, I completely understand why you don't want to be on the bandwagon, none of us do because IT SUX! Look after yourself hunny, I hope AF leaves swiftly, she is a witch to do that to you xxxx
Hi
Bianeczka :hug: its never ever easy getting a negative result, whether it be your first or last attempt...it just SUCKS!! Take time away from ttc and be extra kind to each other, its amazing how a little time & space can re-energise us to push forward on this crappy journey! Thinking of you & we are here anytime xxx
Sending out big hugs to you all for your kind words & support :grouphug: I'm feeling a bit better today, but have been having terrible trouble sleeping these last few nights...thoughts going round & round, mainly sad for the years we have 'lost' through all this. I feel like we have just been surviving life and not really living life. Then i worry about the future and the new path we are thinking of embarking on, what if we fail at that too??! Maybe we are better off NOT being parents?
Jeazzz its hard, how do you know what the do? We need to actively make a decision to stop ivf treatment as it is impossible for us to fall naturally...how do we know if its the right decision? So many questions going on in me head at the moment, and yeah i know i know i am still in with a chance with this cycle but i've had just as many positives as negatives and i know my body too well now....i'm pretty sure am not pregnant this time :shakehead:
Saffy, the cramping sounds reallllllyyy promising!!! I hope this is it for you. :crossfingers:
kristie, also good signs for you too :crossfingers: have you poas yet? I think i will do the dreaded wee test on saturday morning...i'll be 12dpo and will know for sure by then. THat way i can have some drinky poos on sat night and feel like a 'normal' person again!! my bt is monday.
Look after yourselves everyone
Yogi

Yogi- No i havent poas yet i am leaving it until 2moro morning which will be the day before my bt so that way i will know the result i get 2moro will more then likley be the correct one. I really hope my body isnt playing a trick on me and that whats going on is for the reason i want it to be.
I hope everyone else is not going to crazy in their 2ww. BRING ON THE BFP'S
kristie- I think you are UTD I hope the poas and the BT confirm my suspicions!! And yes, I have started going crazy unfortunately :redface:
yogi- glad you are feeling slightly better ( its the best we can hope for under the circumstances).... I know what you mean when you say you know you are not pregnant :cry: unfortunately we know our bodies so well.....I wish someone would look into the future and tell us what to do so it makes decisions easier...big hugs for you hun xx
bianeczka-how are you going hunny?? xx
afm: starting to go slightly crazy, i am so impatient, I'm feeling it could go either way with me so time will tell, don't want to get my hopes up too much cos I don't want the big letdown, only symptoms are cramping at night and v emotional, but I know its too early anyway....my boobs aren't telling me anything either :doh:
Well im out girls, woke up this morning to very familiar cramps that i get when Af is coming or here, And i was right that nasty witch has come. POAS anyways and it was a BFN. So i dont know where to go from here, im thinking of swapping clinics as i wasnt very impressed with the one we went to and they were ment to be one of the best in australia, but from the start of stims things didnt go to well i had 60 follicles but only 1 or 2 a decent size and that is how it stayed, They rang me to do the trigger and i questioned why i was even bothering when there was not enough decent follicles, why did they not cancel when they saw i wasnt responding as good as i should. So egg pickup was done and we got 4 eggs2 which fertilized, and went in for a 2day transfer to be told that the egg was very fragmented and only average, again why did they just cancel and not bother, I feel that they went through with the whole process just to get the money at the end, everything was always either average or not going very well so why not cancel and try again using another protocol instead they made us waste money when they knew that the whole cycle was crap.
Sorry for my rant i just had to get it off my chest, i had doubts about it all before and the doctors and nurses talked me into it when i should have listened to my head and my heart.
Best of luck to everyone else on their 2ww and hope you all get BFP'S because we really need to see some in here.
OH NO Kristie, I am so so sorry to hear that, :hug:, I wish it could have been different for you. I know what you mean about the clinic, I felt like my old one didn't give a sh*t about whether I got utd or not and just wanted the $$, so I swapped. Have a talk with your FS before doing anything drastic and tell him/her that you feel it was a mistake to have gone ahead and see what they say, they might have an answer. Some clinics do antagonist stim cycles which get less eggs but better quality, so you could ask about that.
Take care of yourself honey and do something nice for yourself today even though you will be feeling rotton.
Yogi- how are you?? xx
afm- feeling very pessimistic as I have no more cramping and feel completely normal, I know it is early still but I am resigning myself for the inevitable I think, don't know how I will get through the next few days.....if AF is going to come, she will start appearing Monday I think, going by past experiences, I would love to get to a BT without having started bleeding but that never happens for me...... anyway, need to try and stop being so negative :doh:
I'm out too...(not that I was ever really in IYKWIM)...AF just arrived. My only (small consolation) is that it was a natural (ie. cost-free) cycle....
*sigh*... :(
Now to decide whether to do another stim this month or wait a month....
Hugs to everyone who had a BFN and FX to those who are still in it!!!
x
kristie and n2l - :hug: it truly sucks :(
Very sorry for the BFN's ladies - :hug:
Hope you can have another attempt soon!
sorry to hear that N2L- you will get there hun, I hope its soon xx
:hug: for kristie & nothing2lose, hope you are being kind to yourselves. xxx
Saffy, i hope AF has stayed away? Did you poas? totally ok to be negative...its our defence mechanism i think, after everything we go through. Still, i have a good feeling and have all fingers & toes & arms & legs wrapped up in yogic position!!! :crossfingers:
Thanks so much ladies for your hugs and thoughts....i am very very nervous posting this and a little embarrassed too. I've had an emotional weekend!!...
...well, i've been so absolutely certain that this cycle didn't work, i did a hpt on friday night. its was a brand that i hadn't used before but had it 'lying around' so thought i would give it a try....negative. So friday night spent drowning my sorrows had about 5 drinks, i stopped my pessaries & clexane, woke up with a headache and threw down some panadol. On saturday i thought i would double check to be absolutely sure and do another hpt with a brand that i have always used 'First Response' and they have always been accurate for me...came up positive! I literally nearly collapsed on the bathroom floor!! my 1st reaction was 'oh ****..i just had all those drinks!!'...2nd reaction was 'oh ****, here we go again...i'm so scared!!' did another poas on sunday and still line there.
I've decided to get the blood test done tomorrow. my negativity is still there and i'm preparing myself for a chemical pregnancy. I know i probably sound ungrateful and crazy but this is now my 5th pregnancy in a row (6 all up) and they have all ended in tears so, although i know this is a good start, i know that for me my biggest hurdles lie ahead now.
Anyway, see what tomorrow's bt gives. Geez this journey can truly screw with your head!!!
Take care everyone

Sending heaps and heaps of :stickyvibesgirl::bluecheer::stickyvibesboy::cheer :
I haven't poas and am trying not to. This is the closest i've gotton to a BT without having bleeding so that is a good sign but I just realised AF isn't due until Thursday I had thought it was wednesday, so have to get through another 48hrs without any spotting, can I do it?? Still no symptoms, but thats not worrying me, I am just paranoid every time i go to the toilet, argghhhh, how can I get through the next 24 hours??!!
Just a quick one...
YogiBear - I can completely understand you feeling negative - how could you not after all you've been through. But how exciting. I know you said the biggest hurdle still lies ahead and that may be true but this may just be your little extra sticky embie that you've been waiting for. Sooooooo hope that it is. Shall be waiting to hear your BT results.
Saffy - great news for you. Hang in there for this last stretch - you can do it! The 2WW feels like some kind of marathon sometimes doesn't it. Anyway thinking of you and crossing everything that nasty AF stays away
All the luck in the world to both of you.
xx
wooooooooohooooooooooo Yogi! :stickyvibesboy: :leap: :stickyvibesgirl:
Saffy - Hope AF stays away and the blood test brings wonderful much deserved news :hug:
