Good luck to everyone this month and wishing you all BFPs!!!
Newish to BB so this is my first time in this tread but my second time on the TWW.
I had my AI as part of my 2nd IUI attempt yesterday. Feeling a little bit more relaxed than last time, although I usually find its the last few days when I start freaking out....
Anway hi to everyone, I hope you all have a fabulous weekend and I too wish you all + + more . I look forward to hearing about all the BFP!
Rob: I'm really good with excuses too. Maybe it was just a dud test. I've never had much luck with POAS, I think they're cursed LOL
to all the other newbies!
AFM today is the first day I feel normal again. I professed my love for my acupuncturist today, she cured my back and other pains in 2 days! Anyway it's great to be back, DH said it's good to not have the zombie wife in town anymore LOL. Here's praying I never have to go thru that again!
Anyway hoping you all have a great weekend. We're off to an 18th birthday tomorrow night, I'm just glad to get out of the house LOL
to you all and here's hoping we don't go insane on the way!
This is my first time on a pregnancy forum. Today unfortunately marks my first day of joining the longterm TTC club - it's officially 12 months of no success. No existing kids for either of us. Obviously feeling sad and fragile and would welcome words of support from girls in the same boat and some advice on how to stay positive....
Thanks
Kmond - whooa...CONGRATS to you!! I hope it is smooth sailing for you from now on
AFM - Today I had second BT and HCG had done it's thing and more than doubled the progesterone went up from 30 to 39 and after the blood test I had my first injectable prog shot (which hurt!!) and will have another blood test on Friday to see if that gets it up even higher. Feeling a bit more +ve tonight....after a very stressful morning waiting for results!! A friend said to me today just rememeber in all that stress you are actually pregnant!! (So true...you actually forget that as you are thinking the worst all the time!)
mitf - thanks for explaining your prog boost...good luck with your journey
Helene - welcome, hang in there just when you thought it was over along comes the suprise of your life!
One day down everyone else....and closer to your BFP's!
a big welcome to you Helene!
let's hope your time in here is short and sweet.
you are surrounded by sad, fragile, scarred, confused, happy, funny, hesterical girls!
we all help out with each others problems like a special family!

Just wana say congrats to everyone that has finally got their BFP!! A H & H 9 months ahead. Hopefully there is alot more BFP's to come! Its to early to tell any syptoms so far for me but !
BTW what is the earlist anyone has goten a true positive HPT?? I dont no how much longer i can hold off even though i no its way to early to show up
To all other ers, thinking of you and wishing you all
AFM, having a pretty rough time right now. Since about 10pm last night have been having the same AF pains I always get the day before she arrives each month. No blood yet but feeling pretty fluidy and have all the symptoms of AF so am really down.
Did another POAS this morning then also tried a new brand as well, and same thing, same really faint line doesn't seem to be getting any clearer so thinking maybe it's the Crinone gel. I hate this part, it's so much harder than I thought it would be, or maybe I'm just not as stong as I thought. And it doesn't help that my big mouth DH told EVERYONE exactly when I was having ET so I'm also being bombarded with questions of "any news yet". I just want to go into hiding for a few days becasue these people that are asking aren't asking because they care, they're purely to get the next gossip scoop and it annoys the crap out of me. Sunday is going to be agony because I set myself a goal to be pg by this Mother's Day.
Sorry about the whinge and the "me" post but really needed to vent. Might try to stop thinking and to get some sleep in the hope that tomorrow is over as quickly and painlessly as possible.
BOC - stay positive for that BT on Monday for you. Sending up a wish for you tonight
Mahli09 - great news - looking forward to hearing your BT results tomorrow!
Infinity - stay positive and be your own good luck charm. for you
Lilmiss - so sorry to hear your news - try and make the most of the break and goodluck for your FET
Paula, Jozza Chellie and kittycat - welcome and goodluck for your TWW
Jodz - hope those numbers keep going up and up and up
Helene - welcome to BB - it's a difficult time but am sure you will find the support you need and answers to all those questions as well. All the very best on your journey.
Sorry if I've missed anyone!
AFM my HCG level was 282 which they said was good but they didn't test me for progesterone and have told me to stop the crinone pessaries now. This is making me really nervous as lots of things I've read say you should continue for 12 weeks? BOC - I see your FS has told you to stop but then they've checked your progesterone level and it's good. Asked my FS about this and she said if the embryo is viable then it will continue without the progesterone and it's not then if I continue on the crinone then all I will be doing is artificially prolonging a pregnancy that's not viable. Any thoughts on this?
Sending everyone in the TWW loads of - GL everyone
Sorry bout that, not sure what went wrong there but somehow my last post managed to duplicate three times - hope thats not a sign I'm having triplets!! Anyway, perhaps to keep it tidy one of the moderators can delete 2 of them?
Hi Kmond.. Congrats on your PG hun.. With regards to your progesterone levels, the way I look at it is that with all the messing around that they do with our hormones is that the pessaries kind of fill the gap between what our bodies normally do and what the FS has been making them do.. So once you're PG your body takes over this production without FS help and if it is within natures ability to keep you PG then you will be but the will of the FS will only help so far.. Good luck sweetie.. I hope nature continues to carry you down the path to a H&H PG... (I hope that makes sense)
Kmond - that is a hard dilemma, hopefully you feel confident in your FS and can come off the gel. In my early collection cycles I didn't stay on the gel for too long but then they have identified that I need help with the progesterone production until the placenta takes over. FET cycles I have been told you stay on perssaries to somewhere between 8 -12 weeks as well as the ES tablets.
I have had a mc from low numbers but also after testing the baby there were chromosomal problems with the baby, so it actually was never going to be a viable pregnancy . So it is hard to say yes or no to you question, I guess your FS wouldn't do anything to jeopardise your pg. I did find it odd that they didn't test your prog levels to start with though? I have everything crossed for you and that your embryo and body takes over and does the right thing.
Boc - I have everything crossed for you. I have been where you are now before. It is so hard and it starts to do your head in. I really hope your numbers go up.....
AFM - back to clinic again for BT test 3 to check levels and to see if I need another injectable progesterone shot on Saturday morning. I love the clinic and they are great people but I look forward to the day when I don't have to go there 3 or 4 times a week!!
Everyone else....I hope you are keeping sane in the 2WW.
