farmgirl- two on board- congrats! and here's hoping...i am glad I am not the only one to prod away at my boobs all the time! :lol:
luckystrike- I am glad you are feeling positive...it does drive you a bit crazy waiting and wondering doesn't it! I hope that your one little survivor is THE one- luckily for me I am drug free at the moment as I had a natural FET this time. It is much nicer. I used the pessaries last time (like Nixon I am with Sydney IVF, but my hormone levels were quite high, so I didnt get the two injections but the pessaries...)
afm- just back from more acupuncture....my acupuncturist said my energy levels seem good this time around and he was happy with how I am going. it was nice and relaxing too.... am still anxiously looking for signs all the time. four more sleeps....
every now and then i feel a twinge and panic its an early AF cramp...then it subsides. I think I am just so alert to every little thing my body does right now. Anyway :pray: our little one is tucked in nice and comfy by now
thanks for all being here and helping through the TWW and this whole rollercoaster in general :grouphug:

Alloy, great to chat to you again! A few of us iui-ers have ended up very close together on our 1st ivf cycles. Best of luck for you. Did you transfer 1 or 2 embies?
Luckystrike, I too am using Crinone - twice a day, morning and night.. awful goopy stuff. I'm also on Progesterone pessaries, a cone shaped form of progesterone that you need to lie down for half hour to "melt" the waxy outside to allow the progesterone out from inside the cone. These are twice a day too. I spot early each month (about a week before AF is due) and they think it may be because of my progesterone levels are too low... hoping all this extra support does the trick to allow my lining to stay intact to allow a little one to stick in there!
Farmgirl, Congrats on your 2 embies. Hope there'll be some positive news from this thread in a couple of weeks.
Possums, I really enjoy acupuncture sessions too.. so relaxing. :pray: for good news soon!
Have a lovely weekend everyone. :dance:

Hi all
Farm Girl: :crossfingers: your 2 on board hang around for a long time.
I'm with Ballarat IVF and during my first IVF cycle was using Crinone twice a day during my TWW.
When my FET transfer happens I'll be on twice daily Crinone & Progynova tablets as well during the TWW to get the progesterone levels up. If we get a BFP I will have to contine with the Crinone & Progynova for a further 10 weeks until the placenta kicks in. Can you imagine having Crinone for 12 weeks solid, 2 weeks of yuck seems more than enough but I suppose you gotta do what you gotta do.

Happy weekend everyone. Hope you find some time to relax in the middle of all this. :) I'll be trying to!
Kelly and Kaydee- thanks for the support...
-
Possums - hope you have a great weekend & are able to relax. My fingers are crossed for you.

Thanks for all the responses girls, it sounds like each clinic does it slightly differently, and then sometimes that varies from person to person.
Kaydee - Wow you have to wait 1/2 and hr to have the cone melt. I am sure we'll laugh at all this one day when we look back and have our babies in our hands.
buliej - my gonal-f was increased twice as I wasnt respondong very well. I guess I'll probably be started on the highest dose next time if I go thru another stim cycle, but hopefully I wont have to :)
Enjoy your weekend everyone hope to get a few BFPs next week!
-
Kaydee, it's great that a few of us have moved on together, hopefully we will share in BFP's in 2 loong weeks :) I had one embie transferred today. My clinic does one embie for a fresh cycle, and one for a frozen cycle before they look at transferring 2.
Farmgirl, best of luck hun! I hope your 2 embies snuggle in for a 9 month stay. I've been a silent bb member for a while now, and I've read quite a few of your posts. I really do wish you the happiness you deserve
Luckystrike, I have to have my first crinone tonight. I got the cream at my transfer appointment today, and wasn't too impressed reading the pamphlet on the way home. "Very Common Side Effects : feelings of severe sadness, and unworthiness, decreased sexual drive, sleepiness, feeling emotional" Great, just what we need! Hopefully we'll be fine and won't feel too crappy while using it. I'm going to do mine just before bed, so hopefully by the time I wake up it won't feel so gross.
Possums, I'm glad your acupuncture went well. Hopefully the next 4 days go fast for you!! :crossfingers:
:stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy: to anyone I've missed
AFM, I'm resting up tonight after my transfer today. I plan to stay on the couch until I'm back to work next Tuesday. Been to Video Ezy this morning, so I'm set with a few DVD's that I haven't seen yet.
Have a lovely weekend everyone

just sending everyone some sticky vibes. good luck all in TWW.

Hi TWW ladies! Hope you are all having a good weekend and not feeling too stressed or crazy.
I'm trying to keep busy but am officially a bit crazy and trying to interpret every single thing my body does. 3 more sleeps. I'm nervous now. :pray: for a BFP.
Allow- resting up with DVDs sounds great. Glad your ET went well and I hope the wait goes quickly for you with a great result at the end.
JBM and Buliej , thanks for the thoughts. Hope you are both doing OK.
