BabyDreamtime- I'm waiting for you...I hope this morning goes really well for you. Looking forward to my TWW buddy officially joining me.
I'm just relaxing this morning. DH is going away for 3 days for work today so I'm going to go stay with my family to try to keep my mind off this TWW.
2 sleeps down...7 to go.
AAAHH!! I'm going bonkers already!!
Hugs Bel
Hang in there Bel...:hug::
Hi everyone,
It is official, 2 embies hopefully snuggling in nicely.:stickyvibesboy::stickyvibesgirl:
I have had a good morning, just got back from acu and made my self some lunch. I have even taken a leaf out of your book Bel and had DH put the sun lounge in the sun, plan on putting on my bikini and relaxing, if I can tear myself away from Oprah's sandwich special. Daytime TV is great.
Today was the most uncomfortable ET I have had yet, its my first cycle on Crinone, it seemed like FS had a little trouble even getting the brackets in, would it be all that left over waxy stuff inside making things stick. Sorry TMI. And it seems like they used a new type of catheter, at one stage I felt it touching/scratching on the back of my uterus. Everything I have read so far says that this can negatively effect implantation rates if the endo is agitated. I hope everything is ok. Fingers crossed.
Bel, I am hoping your days are speeding by, only 7 to go until you get your BFP (:pray:. Don't stress over every twinge (I know, easier said than done, I haven't even started yet). Could it be implantation? It must be. Make sure you are taking it easy. And spending time with your family sounds great, and a good way to keep yourself occupied. I always feel like the weekend is a bit of a break, and don't normally start stressing until the Monday. From then you will only have 4 days to go, no time at all.
I have decided to be super positive, I have that excited feeling in my belly, truely this is the closest I have ever been to being pregnant. I am telling my self I am pregnant all ready, technically I guess it is true, they just haven't implated yet. And if the worst comes, the let down won't be any worse if I spend the next 13 days feeling positive or doubtful. So positive it is.
SaraB, that is fantastic news, a speedy weekend for you too and good luck for Monday. Gosh, 7.30 am is early, though the earlier in, the earlier you get to BT. Hope you are one of the lucky ones who gets a BFP first up.
LilMiss, I agree, once you have a plan, you feel more in control. Hope you can move foward with your cycle soon.
Hugs to all

Baby Dreamtime - I am feeling positive for you too. I am sure it is our month! Make sure you look after yourself & do some nice things for yourself! :pray:
Bel - I am not good at waiting either. My family always says that I am the least patient person they know. I know everyone says it - but try and keep busy... All my best wishes to you. :)
Baby Dreamtime- Yay for the 2 little ones on board. Don't stress about the transfer. I am sure everything is perfectly fine. Am glad you are having a relaxing afternoon. I'm off to have a siesta now! As for daytime TV..yep, can't drag myself away from it either. You just get hooked though. And a good friend of mine calls TF day "pregnancy day" cause you know technically for the day of TF you are pregnant. So enjoy your "pregnancy day" and congrats o being closer than ever before to your BFP. I have everything crossed that our journey here together will end up with BFP's for us both.
Sarah- Thanks for the wishes, I am also known in my family for my impatience..I hate waiting in lines!!
Must be off to have a nanna nap so I'll stay awake for the opening ceremony tonight...am very excited.
Hugs Bel
Good morning,
Bel, I hope you didn't stay up too late last night. We taped the ceremony and watch funny movies instead. How are you feeling today? Taking care of yourself I hope.
I freaked out this morning. I am a serial charter and take my temps every day (for about 3 years now), thought the FS has said not to pay too much attention to temps during a HRT cycle due to the estrogene progesterone battle. I have been told I have a thyroid problem and normally have a lower than average BBT. So, this month I have been feeling good because my temps have been stable, and I had a quick high termal shift once I started on Crinone (last 2 months my temps have gone up without the progesterone, which doesn't make sense). Anyway, this month looked great, yesterday I was at a high (for me) of around 36.45 (taken orally) and have been since the equivalent of O day. But this morning my first test was 36.19, yikes, I tested again and 36, and 35.98 and 36.12 all one after the other. So freaking out thinking that my body temp had dropped, which meant not enough progesterone in my system which meant not a good balance for a BFP. So I tested vaginally (sorry TMI) and I was 36.72, which is good, normally my oral temp is .3 degrees lower, so I again tested and it was 36.42. Happy with that but what is going on? Maybe I need a new thermometer, I have been using this one for over two years now. Anyway, I guess I went from absolute dispair back to feeling positive. ARghhhrr. That's the rollercoaster for you.
Hope you have a great day today, and it has gotten of to a much smoother start than mine, will check in later,
xx
Baby Dreamtime- Oh my friend..what a morning you have had. I know absolutely nothing about temps so can't give an expert advice!!! What I do know though is that all these drugs we take totally messes everything up so I would think that is what's going on. Please don't worry...gee who am I to talk, but I really think things are ok. If I'm ever having a total meltdown, I just ring 1 of the nurses at my clinic. As for last night, I had a really late one. Went to bed around 3 which was stupid as I had to get up at 9.30am to do a needle. I've been a good girl though a went back to bed!! Tonight I'm off to my SIL's hens dinner. Am looking forward to a good dinner and gossip with the girls. I hope you have a good afternoon and start to relax. Sorry if you have already told me, but when is your BT date??
Look after yourself and the 2 little ones on board

5 sleeps to go...5 sleeps to go...5 sleeps to go...
Hope you are cruising along nicely BDT...am thinking of you
Hugs Bel
Sara- Looking forward to you joining us tomorrow. All the best for the morning. Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly for you.
Tick..tock...tick...tock!!
Hugs Bel
Good morning,
Hi Bel, hope you had a great night last night. Wow, 5 days to go, feels like that has gone quick, not for you though I bet. Are you feeling ok today? I am so far, my temp was good this morning, so spirits are up, and my sun lounge is calling me, what a day.
You have next week off work right? Hope you have plenty to keep you occupied. Friday will be here before you know it. Must admit I am a little jealous, the 21st seems so far away. It is truely not fair, this waiting that we have to do, knowing what might/is going on, it's just not fair. I have been really open with family/friends re IVF but more and more I am not telling anyone what is going on, can't stand the questions and don't want to get everyone elses hopes up, it is bad enough dealing with my own hopes. Oops, forgot, I am being super positive so :pray: we will all have good news to share sooner rather than later.
Sara, how are you, good luck for 7.30 am tomorrow, sending POSITIVE thoughts your way, wouldn't be great if this month was the month we all get a BFP! Fingers crossed.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend, hugs. xx
Hi Ladies,
Well...4 sleeps to go for me and I can't wait to just have an answer.
BDT- I hope you are cruising along nicely still and that you had a good relaxing weekend. How beautiful is it here today??
Sara- How did it all go this morning?? We're waiting for you in here!!
Will chat later, about to cook
Hugs Bel
Hello Chick-a-dees....
Just popping in to wish you all the very very best during this long suffering TWW...
Believe me when I tell you I know how painful it is...
To my lovely friend Bel and you other ladies....'try' and relax a little... :hug:
Hi everyone,
Bel, how are you today? Gosh, only 4 sleeps, not long now. I read a few of your blogs and see that, in the past AF has always arrived before BT. This is the case with me too, I am on extra progesterone like you to stop this happening. I am praying for you though that this isn't even an issue because you will get your BFP! :pray::pray: I wish it with all my heart, it is your turn this month.
MM, thanks for the well wishes, fingers crossed for us all.
Sara, how was your ET today? I hope everything went as planned and you are officially joining us in the TWW. :pray: for you too.
I am looking at 10 days to BT, it seems forever away. Lucky I have a few things to keep me occupied, I am writing an award submission this week, and my brother and SIL and niece arrive from California next Wed. I can't wait to see them, but it will be hard, my SIL is 4 months with another girl. Oh when will it be my turn. I got a text from a friend today asking how I was going with IVF. I will have to be more careful with what I put as my Facebook status (ie I am feeling very positive) as I guess everyone knows what I mean by this. I can't wait til the day I can tell the world that I am pregnant. Please come soon. She also mentioned one of our friends, quite a well known soapy actress, is starting IVF this week, so I guess infertility can happen to anyone. But why me? Arrghh. I guess the diatribe above is an indication of my state of mind at the moment. Trying to get that positive feeling...10 days and counting....
My thoughts are with you all. xx
Hi BDT,
I get everything you say. It's so hard to stay strong on this journey. That's why we are all good for each other here on BB.
My SIL is getting married on Sat and I am so so so excited for her but scared as well as my BT is on Fri. DH's best friends wife is pg and will be there. They are from Syd and I haven't even spoken to her since she found out and another girl there is pg too. While you are so happy for other people you also just wish it could be your time. It's just such an emotional rollercoaster...Like now, I am busting for Friday but also, ignorance is bliss IFKWIM??
I'm worried how I'll be on Sat if I get a BFN..Am thinking of asking my clinic if I can maybe test a day early so I can pull myself together if necessary.
Hope you have a relaxing night. Lots of exciting things happening at the olympics!!
You sound to be doing ok which is good. I'm here if you need me.
Big hugs
Bel
Hi to the ladies in the TWW,
Bel and Babydreamtime: Sending you both :stickyvibesboy: and :pink-babydust: I :pray: you both get a BFP. I know what you mean about being around other pregnant peeps. I kept staring at them for some reason. Then with my work being with children, have been bombarded with pregnant people and small children. It's hard not to want what they have and only natural. Be kind to yourselves, nanna nap it up and before you know it your BT day will be here. I was going to bribe my IVF nurse to BT early, but she thought I was joking!
Thinking of you all and go the BFP :crossfingers:!

:stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy::stork-boy::stork-girl:
sending good vibes to bel
good luk hun im thinking of you and praying for your BFP
Hi everyone,
Queenh, thanks so much for your well wishes. And congrats to you, gosh it must feel like all your dreams have come true. :pray: that your pregnancy progresses fabulously, and Bel and I can join you also.
Smithy, hi, can you send some good vibes to me too? Please, I need all the help I can get!:crossfingers:
Bel, how are you today, 3 sleeps to go isn't it? You must be going out of your head. I hope you are taking care of your self, and feeling positive. This TWW is doing my head in, I really need to chuck out my calendar. I have spent a very productive 2 hours this morning googling things like 'aid embryo implantation' etc, searching, searching for something that will help or tip things my way. I am also still obsessing over my temps and have spent far too much time on the ovusoft site looking at all the temp charts for women who have gotten a BFP, and comparing them to mine of course. The TWW is just hell.

Afternoon All,
Queenh- Thanks so much for your thoughts. It means a lot that you are thinking of us. And i LOVE your ticker..I hope to be adding one of those to my signature soon!
Smithy- Hi my friend. Thanks for popping in and saying hi. I always have a smile on my face when I see that pink writing!! I hope you are doing fabulously.xx
BDT- My TWW buddy..oh this just drags on doesn't it! I stay away from that dam google at the moment. There is just too much to read into. I'm going bonkers as it is without finding more to go bonkers about!! I hope you are ok really. I know how desperately hard this is. DH and I cleaned the balconies today so that took up a few hours..so now what next??!!
But I have some exciting news!!! Only 2 more sleeps now for me. I'm not sure if you read my blog, but my SIL is getting married on Sat and we have heaps of people arriving on Friday, so I asked my clinic if I could test a day early (just in case of a BFN...but I'm PRAYING for a BFP..and am quielty hopeful!!). They were happy to help me out but said that if my levels were low I'd have to come back for another blood test. My main concern is just to clear my head if I get a BFN so I'm happy with that.
Stay strong my friend. I'm here if you need me.
Am off to take DH to the hairdressers for a much needed cut.
Will catch up later
Hugs Bel
