LTTTC Two Week Wait - April 2008 #1

[Acacia]

Bubwishes - hoping all is going well for you - you must be really close to your BT now! Fingers crossed for a great result for you! Eveything at transfer sounded very positive!

FG - Hello, hun. I've been thinking about you, although not having a chance to post very much at all because of a lack of internet connection since moving o/s (it should be better now!). I'll be thinking of you in the TWW - I'm sorry that you lost an embie during thaw - that must be very difficult. I'm glad you're in the TWW again though, and I hope you're doing ok. I hope work is still busy - I'm sure that will help! It only takes one embryo - admittedly the right one - but each time you're in the TWW is a chance for that to happen. I have lots and lots of hope for you! Lots of hugs

Carla - thanks for the congrats Hope you're doing well!

Warm wishes to anyone else in the TWW - I hope there's wonderful news to come!

Hi

Yep, I'm in the 2ww too although it's actually 11 days. I've been keeping a low profile .. just my way of dealing with it.

BT is on Tuesday - 4 more sleeps. So far I feel fine, got a sense that something is going on in there .. just slight .. (that could be the progesterone pessaries?). Been a bit tired the last couple of days but that could be from having a busy week.

I know enough that any symptoms, when taking meds, could be deceiving so just trying to keep a level head. Feeling very fortunate, only had to thaw 1 blast, have 6 left.

Actually I've decided that I will leave my mobile at home that day and listen to the message when I get home from work. I've been pretty relaxed but somehow I just think it will be very emotional whatever the outcome.

Good luck to you all.

Hey Belle
Not long to go now.Good luck and loads of Its weird because im quite fine now but i know those last few days are just the worst, good idea with the phone. Are you on crinone and do you know does it delay AF?

[belle333]

Thanks Scooby - goodluck to you

I used crinone briefly when I had stim cycle but .. overstimmed so no fresh transfer. I didn't like it ... i think it was too much for me. Anyhoo this time the bottle just says 'Progesterone Pessaries', they're quite small, waxy and cone shape.

I was told in here recently that taking progesterone holds off AF and it won't start until your progesterone levels drop to trigger it. Does anyone else know what the go is?

[belle333]

Ok, so if you are on estrogen and progesterone during your FET cycle .... if you take a PG test before official BT will it be accurate ... ie. will the meds interfere in getting a result?

Hey Belle
As long as your not on pregnyl you will not get a false +ive as progesterone does not contain any HCG which is what HPT measure, i think by now your triiger would be out of your system and yeah prog pessaries will delay AF, thats why i wasnt sure about crinone cause alothough its prog i think its a much lower dose, but really not sure. Are you going to test soon Belle i think youve been great waiting this long I think we are the only ones in here at the moment?

Hey Scooby

Yeah seems a bit quiet. Its taken me so long to get to this point. i had my stim cycle back in feb/early march and am having medicated FET cycle at the moment so only estrogen and progesterone pessaries.

I did end up having a bit of spotting yesterday and feels like AF will start but rang the clinic this morning. They said nothing to worry about, its quite common/normal with this type of cycle and its definately not my AF so seems positive so far.
