    Hello, I'm finally here - FET was on Friday so am now on day 5 of the TWW. My BT is next Friday - right now that seems so far away......

    Hopefully some of the BFP vibes in here will rub off - congrats to Jodz and tentative congrats to BOC.

    Bridget - so sorry about your BFN, I understand grieving for the ones that dont stick 'cos I do it too. Good luck for your next FET.

    Kmond - have you lost your mind yet? Best of luck for tomorrow morning - I'll make a wish for you tonight. x

    lilmisshavachat - yay for good feelings!! I am a huge believer in intuition so I think there is a reason you are feeling positive - good luck.

    Good luck to everyone else in their TWW.

    Hi Ladies,

    Hope all is going well, hope none of you have gona loopy yet with the wait Thanks to everyone for the tentative congrats, let's hope it becomes proper congrats in 2 sleeps time eeeeek!

    Bridget: So sorry to hear of your BFN hun, with the double FET, I asked my FS to do that but he flat out refuses unless you're over 35 and have extenuating circumstances

    KMond: A huge for tomorrow! I'm not really feeling anything yet either, although my skin is an abomination, huge zits all over my face and chest! Never ever thought I'd be excited about that!

    To al you other ers, wherever you're at! Let's make the month of May a BFP Bonanza!

    AFM, as before, not really any symptoms apart from the bad skin and an insatiable hunger, seriously I'm scoffing everything in sight! But then that could be becasue I was so sick for 10 days after EPU that I barely ate...

    Anyway DH hit the roof when I told him what I did, took me about an hour to talk him round. He's worried I'll get my hopes up then crash if it doesn't work out. But I'll get my hopes up regardles of POAS or not.

    I've done 2 more POAS (1 each day) and this morning the 2nd line was a little shade darker (or at least I hope it's not my imagination)! Please God please please please let this be it!

    Praying for you all as well...

    hi ladies - always keeping track of those in the TWW and wishing you much luck.

    Bridget - a thought from me re wanting to put 2 frosties back. I was in a similar situation - I had 2 frosties left and just wanted to use them both so that I could get back onto a fresh cycle. My FS explained that a twin preg is a lot more high risk / complications / possible defects, so, being totally risk averse, I opted for just 1 (I figured, it would only add one more month to getting back to a fresh cycle if it didn't work out, which wasn't too long in the scheme of things). Well, I was very glad I went for one, because it did stick and I'm not sure my body would have coped with twins (and a lot of ladies do have a very tough time carrying twins). Anyway, just some thoughts.

    all the best girls.

    Hi Ladies,

    Just checking in. glad to see we have a couple of potential BFPs!

    BOC - fantastic news about the tentative BFP, good luck with your blood test in a couple of days.

    Kmond - Good luck with your BT today. I hope you have been keeping your mind busy.

    Jodz - Congrats on you BPF and good luck keeping your progesterone levels up.

    Emerald Star. Welcome and congrats on the POAS BFPs. Good luck for your BT tomorrow.

    Lilmisshavachat - I hope you managed to stay sane for the rest of your week and good luck on Monday.

    Infinity - I hope you are managing to stay sane also and good luck for next Friday.

    Bridget - Sorry about you BFN also. I hope you are coping ok and wish you all the best for next time.

    AFM - I am now on day 5 of my TWW, although it feels more like a week and a half! I had my first progesterone booster last night and I have a blood test on Thursday to check my progesterone levels.

    Wishing you all the best and lots of good luck over the next week or so!

    Hi Guys!

    Mitf & Infinity - good luck with the TWW!
    Kmond - I will be thinking of you tommorrow, have you POAS?
    Lilmiss - Its great that you are feeling so positive about this - I think it makes the time pass a little quicker!
    Boc- Congrats on the second line! I hope it is you and not the meds! My DH is the same about the HPT - he thinks we should just wait too and is worried about me emotionally if it is not a positive on Friday
    Jodz - congrats on your news &!!

    AFM - well after Boc's great news the other night I decided I was going to POAS it took me a day to work up the courage and talk DH round. I just felt like I was getting AF because I was a bit crampy - I did the hpt just to know I was still in with a shot. I did the test and we sat and stared at it for ages and then a light second line started to appear, for the first time ever in all the hpt I have done we have a second line!! Now I don't want to get to excited about it but it is nice to know we are still in the game!!



    Bring on Friday!!

    Mahli- wow 2 lines, hang in there now..hopefully an official BFP soon

    good luck everyone else

    bridget- sorry the result was negative this time

    how long do you have to wait after the trigger shot, until you can safely do a HPT? just trying to remember (and then I'll know when my turn hopefully rolls around soon)

    Hi girls,

    Sorry I haven't been in touch I have just started a new job and have been also sick with the flu. Geez such a lucky girl.....when it rains it pours.

    Sounds like there are lots of sticky vibes floating around?.lets hope they continue for all!

    Mahli09 - whooaa, I hope Friday is the best day of your life!!

    Mitf - good luck...are you a struggling progesterone person too. How do they boost your prog levels?

    Boc - You must be close now..I hope it is high numbers!

    Infinity - Goodluck with your wait

    Kmond - Goodluck tomorrow...thinking of you

    lilmisshavachat - All the best...sending positive vibes

    For all you 1st time 2WWers I hope all your dreams come true soon...goodluck to anyone I have forgotten!

    AFM I feel a bit like I am back to square one, I am back in tomorrow for another BT to check my levels. I think I am more nervous this time than I was on Sunday!! I have A LOT of history and I am terrified it will be repeated. My wonderful FS has managed to find a chemist that makes injectable progesterone and I am going to have one of those tomorrow when I visit the clinic. (Apparently they really hurt!!) But I am willing to do anything at this point to get me further in this pregnancy. Sorry for my rant....I am trying to stay positive but it is hard sometimes, as you all know.
    Will let you know how I go.

    Nearly at the end of my first IVF TWW and think I am going a little loopy. It is just me or does it consume most of your thoughts? We have resisted doing a pregnancy test, BT is scheduled for Thursday. Waiting, waiting, waiting...

    KI- good luck...it is all consuming in my experience

    jodz- good luck- I know how stressful it can be when you've had losses and you are just so scared something will go wrong again. I hope this time though all is smooth sailing!

    Mahli - good news on the tentative POAS double line. All the best for Friday!!

    Jodz - I do struggle with my progesterone a little, although I have never had a confirmed pregnancy so I am unsure how or if it will effect me when I am successful in getting a BFP. I don't inject progesterone rather I have two 1500 pregnyl boosters at day 4 & 7 after AI ( I think this is the case for most IUI, and probably IVF). The Pregnyl raises your luteinizing hormones (LH) which in turn prepares the uterus for implantation and increases the ovarian production of both oestrogen and progesterone. Good news about finding a chemist that can provide injectable progesterone. I really hope this works out for you.

    Good luck to everyone else biding their time...... looking forward to loads more BFPS!!

    Hi Everyone

    This has to be a very short post as I have to run out the door but will be back later today or tomorrow am for personals but.......

    got our BT results this afternoon and got our. Yay! Seems like a bit of a bonanza so far in here this month which is great. Just goes to show you can have absolutely no symptoms and still get a positive so for everyone still in the TWW stay positive.

    Sending lots of to all!

    Hi all

    I have just come across this thread so thought I'd post a message to say good luck to you who are in 'imbo' for 2 weeks and very sorry to hear about the BFNs. 2 weeks feels like a life time and to get such a disappointing outcome is devastating. A BIG to you. And to those of you who have received BFPs... CONGRATULATIONS to you, that is fantastic and I hope all goes well for the coming months.

    We had our FET yesterday so are now in the wonderful TWW process. This is our 3rd FET, but our first with a different clinic in a different state... the photo we were given with this one is really different from the others, so we are hoping that's a good thing.

    I was wondering... do any of you get a little extreme when it comes to what to eat & what not to eat etc during the TWW?

    Well, that's it from me, I am keen to hear how you are all travelling so will continue to check this thread.

    Again... good luck to you all!!

    Just a quickie but Congratulations Kmond what wonderful news and also to Jodz for rising levels Yay..
    Hi to all the newbies and good luck..

    AFM - AF arrived yesterday afternoon and the clinic has moved my BT to Friday instead of Monday... Pretty gutted and I wasn't expecting it so soon so it floored me a little and had to keep working as well when all I wanted was my bed and the room dark so I could think clearly (and cry in private).. And now I have to have a cycle off before FET... So more waiting...
    Good luck to everyone else in the TWW...

    Wow it's so busy in here. I had a strange feeling seeing as this is the first time I've participated in a TWW thread that there would be a heap of BFP's - I seem to be a bit of a charm for those around me!! If you want to be pregnant have some sort of contact with me - hehehe. Seriously - huge congratulations to Mahli09 and Kmond - fantastic news and wishing you H&H pregnancies. xx

    Jodz - hooray for rising levels!

    Mitf - i think we are the same - day 7 for me (I count ET as day 1) of my TWW. BT on 15/5 - when is your BT? Here's hoping we get our BFP's!

    K1 - good luck with your BT today, I cannot believe how strong you were to not POAS. Please drop back in here with good news!

    BOC - huge hugs to you. I'm sorry you think AF is arriving but hang in there - it's not over till its over. Hoping you woke up this morning to no AF and some positive vibes. I'm wishing for this to be your BFP! Fingers crossed x

    Hi to helene & Chellie88 - best of luck

    kittycat27 - did you POAS yet?? Please be good news!!! Thinking of you

    Jozza72 - hi, good luck with your TWW. Re: food in the TWW, I've done so many TWW's that sometimes I am very careful and other times more relaxed. I always avoid the definate no-no foods and try to go for healthier options but still eat basically what i want.

    lilmiss - so so sorry AF arrived. Hope you are feeling a bit better today

    AFM: I have a cold!! Could this ruin my chances? I'm miserable 'cos I cant take anything for it and scared it means my emby wont want to hang around. I'm also on Prog pessaries and a bit down - bit of cramping yesterday and the day before - which would normally make me a bit excited about implantation but with prog pessaries it's probably them and not my emby.....agh so over this and it's not even a week in yet....

    Hi Fellow TWW!

    Firstly Congratulations Kmond wishing you the best of luck!

    Welcome Jozza, Helene & Chellie - This place will keep you semi sane in the next two weeks! Chellie I got my first faint positive 7 days after my transfer.

    Lilmiss - sorry babe for your news - I hope your doing ok sending you my love x

    Infinity - I know it's hard with prog making you feel down but try and be positive!

    Kittycat - hang in there!

    Jodz - Great news on your prog levels

    K1 - Good luck for today!

    Boc - Stay positive!! My nurses told me the Crinone gel is what gives you the AF cramps and makes you feel like the witch is coming - I also looked it up and found nothing to say that it can give you a false positive - I think it is Pregnl that does that. Is your BT today? - thinking of you!!

    AFM - I did another hpt last night and the line was darker than the first test - I have also felt a bit off today so I am hoping that my embie is holding on tight. My clinic will call me tommorrow with the news after my BT but I feel bad for DH - I don't want to tell him over the phone because I want to see his face but I also don't want him to have to wait till I get home from work!
