LTTTC Two Week Wait - Dec to Jan

Wow -I feel all alone in here. Is there really no one else going through a TWW right now? This must be a first!!!

Hi Mindhugs,

I just had to post and offer you some support (I am not in the 2WW)! It is very quiet in here at the moment, isn't it? I have noticed some ladies from the Long Term TTC and Assisted Conception thread are in 2WW's although they are hanging in the comfort of that thread... Might be worth popping in and saying hello :).

I hope you are doing well and that the 2WW is not driving you too insane - who am I kidding.... I bet it is!

Anyways, wishing you all the luck :goodluck: in the world and lots of :pink-babydust: and :stickyvibesboy:s!

I hope it is your month!

Hi mindhugs, Im joining you today after having 1 x blasty transfered this morning. My BT will be Thursday 25th
Looks like we might not be in here together long though - I so hope you get a BFP hun, STAY AWAY AF! :crossfingers: for you.

Thats correct I believe some of the others wanted to stay in the comfort of the LT TTC and AC. I think they feel they are not aloud to post in both threads. But I believe you can, just can't repeat posts - is that correct?

Hope all goes well for you xo

I have 4 other embryos that are still going well and if they get to blasty stage they will be frozen which I am really hoping for because last time we didnt get any to freeze, FX!

Hello hello, anyone there??
Nup just me on my lonesome. 3.5dp 5dt and feeling like its all over already. Stupidly did POAS this morning and it was BFN. But the worst thing is I have a headache and that is usually a very bad sign for me.:wall: Arrhh how the TWW is so horrible

Hi loops I am here now!! thats right a new crazy lady to the group :P

COMPANY YAY

Great to see you in her Miss K. So happy you had a successful transfer, hoping the TWW doesnt drive you too crazy.
All the best and FX!!

I'm here, I'm here (kinda!!!). 2WW SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am going quietly insane :hide:. . . how can time go so sloooooooowly!!!!
Loops, you silly silly girl, what were you thinking ;), way too early chickie!!
How you holding up MissK?

Ooooh Loops and Melissal You're near the end of your 2ww and I am just starting hehehe!!!

I am taking things well but then again its only 1dpt LOL lets see how this crazy lady goes after the weekend :P

oh and I found this I wonder how true it is ...

1dpt....Blastocyst hatches out of shell on this day
2dpt.. Blastocyst attaches to a site on the uterine lining
3dpt.. Implantation begins,as the blastocyst begins to bury in the lining
4dpt.. Implantation process continues and morula buries deeper in the lining
5dpt.. Morula is completely inmplanted in the lining and has placenta cells &
fetal cells
6dpt...Placenta cells begin to secret HCG in the blood
7dpt...More HCG is produced as fetus develops
8dpt...More HCG is produced as fetus develops
9dpt...HCG levels are now high enough to be immediately detected on
HPT

Hi Girls!!!

I haven't been back in for a while as I was sad being on my own and desperately needed some support during such a stressful time. THANKS for your messages.

Loops - we are not too far apart. I had my BT this morning and am waiting for the IVF clinic to call me with results - I feel sick with anticipation!!!

Coral73 - thank you honey. Appreciate you popping in so much.

Miss K and Melissa - fingers crossed for you guys. TWW does suck, but I suppose it's part of the thrill of it all. Such a rollercoaster though and there's not much you can do to stop it either.........I've cried, I've rejoiced - more so than my last 2 times in TWW.

I've had the weirdest 2 weeks. I can definitely say that I am not mentally present and accounted for. My symptoms - so bizarre. One day I thought I might be pregnant, the next I thought I wasn't, then for 5 days I've been waking up thinking "here comes AF". And all that coupled with, is something seriously wrong with my system??? Maybe I'm egg topic - NO!!!!! Had some nasty nasty pains yesterday which reminded me of when my endo was really bad.

Today I am 33 DPO and it's my BT day, so didn't sleep too well last night. And a bit teary and scared. This is my last frozen blastie out of 3. If this one doesn't stick I have to go straight into nasty laproscopy to clean out endo again and then back it up with another full stim cycle. :pray: :crossfingers:

Please god please god please god!!!!

:goodluck::goodluck::goodluck::goodluck:

Mindhugs - my fingers and toes are all crossed for you babe, GOOD LUCK!!!!!! Four more sleeps for me but I keep getting the odd sneaky little cramp so I'm thinking its not it for me this round. BUT you, my dear, hopfully a different story :pray::pray::pray:

Mindhugs - :goodluck: I hope it's lucky number 3 for you!

Melissa ~ welcome to this thread, yay more people. I know it was bit silly but Emerald does it so I thought why not. GL with the crazy TWW, hope it goes quickly and all the best for that BFP!!!

Miss K ~ hope you're hanging in there!
That timeframe ive seen a fair bit, i do recon it is true. I was ent it recently by a friend after he said I was crazy for POAS at day 3 lol

Mindhugs ~ thanks hun. Will have everything crossed for you today, thinking of you. I hope its LUCKY last of your embies. :pray:

AFM ~ headache again - so def not looking good.Might do a POAS tomorrow or Sun. I know im bad. Should find out about our other embies today as I still dont know if they were frozen. Ive been :pray: like crazy they have been frozen.

Morning Ladies:)

Just wanted to wish Mindhugs a BIG GOODLUCK for today :goodluck: :goodluck: :goodluck: !!!!

I'm :pray:'ing that the news will be want you want to hear, xoxo

Isn't the mind an awful thing? Since starting cramping, I'm convinced games over. Now I am absolutely petrified at how I will handle a bfn. I feel like I've coped with the whole thing so far relatively well but I can see me just going to pieces on Tuesday. Coping mechanisms anyone?

Im devestated just got the worst news ever - none of our eggs were frozen, so now broke, dont think this one has stuck and gone through so much for NOTHING AT ALL :(
Absoluely gutted and Im at work 2. Sorry to be a downer.

Loops - are you sure this one hasn't stuck? I've had soooo many days like that in TWW. I felt like I was going insane. Honey - I'm so sorry about your other eggs. The thing you have going for you is YOUTH. I know you may be broke for now, but that does not mean your chances are dead in the water. Look at me, still at it at 37 years of age. If anything I'm scared about being an old fart of a mum!!! That scares me. Hang in there!

Melissal - strap yourself in hun. I've had cramps on and off every single day. Made me think all sorts of crazy things. One thing I've learnt is that nothing is normal with this process - NOTHING. Fingers and toes crossed.

Mitf/ Marcellus / Coral - thank you for you good wishes. So much appreciated.

Guess what - I just received a :bfp: Ordinarily would have jumped through the roof, but the nurse who gave me the news was a flat, dry ill-mannered person. So unusual for what I've experienced in the past. All she said was "got your results back and they are good. Please report back to Sullivan Nicolaides for a 2nd blood test on Monday so we can check your levels." That was it!!! In the worst tone ever. I've put a call into my IVF doctor and am waiting to hear back from him. Her delivery of the news makes me feel nervous and like I am not out of the woods yet...........B*TCH!!!! Am I mistaken or shouldn't I be rejoicing????

TWW has become 2 and a half week wait!!!!

:happyforyou:
It's good - they'd say so otherwise!

Mindhugs,

That is absolutely fantastic news - yay!!!!!!

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Try not to worry too much about it.... and ignore the mean old nurse!

Having a 2nd Beta is a very normal process and if she said your results were good then I would say that you are definitely UTD - yay :dance: :dance: :dance:!!!!

Now you actually get to go pee on a stick and see those magical and mysterious 2 lines that never seemed to appear before (I still have my 7 x positive HPT's in my cupboard - the things we do when we are LTTTC'ers he, he!!!)

Mindhugs - Thankyou and CONGRATS on that wonderful wonderful news wahooo!!! Sorry the person giving you the news was soo flat I hate people like that!! I swear they ALL say you're not out of the woods yet and you're like hmm well thanks for putting a downer on my celebration!!

Loops - I am soo soo sorry to hear that they didn't make it to the freezer :( big :hug: I hope and :pray: you get good news soon xxoo Just hang in there ok!!

Melissal - Cramping could be from the wonderful pessaries which we all love oh soo much.... NOT!!

AFM - Just doodling along feel no different was in a horrible and nasty mood today anything got on my nerves HELLO HORMONES something I don't get hehe so that was my only change.... Oh and I think I beat my OHSS with Biggest Loser Shakes they have the highest protein compared to any other and actually have more vitamins too!!!

oh and also who here is on Asprin aswell??

Hi Ladies

I'm new BB and was hoping to meet some people going through the same issues as my partner and I. We are currently doing the 2WW. We had ET on the 15/02 and none of our other :fertilise: got frozen, so once again this is our only :fertilise: that made it to blasto out of 10 so it is an anxious wait. If this doesn't stick we are back to square 1 and lining up for another stim cycle.

Mellisal - I had the most cramping my first IVF when I got a BFP so fingers crossed for you. I've also had a lot of cramping this time so I am very hopeful.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Congrats MH the waiting is never over LOL

Mindhugs - :leap: YAY!!!!!!!!!! Two for the Feb hall-of-fame!!!! HUGE congrats to you hun and I reckon that nurse was just a b!tch, don't stress!!! I was told at ET that if I got a bfp, my levels would be checked again in a few days so all sounds perfectly normal. Hoping your hcg has shot up even more at your next BT :clap:
Loops - :comfort: to you sweetheart, don't ever apologise for being a downer cos we are here for that very reason, to listen and try and make you feel a little bit better. Ugh my normal suggestions like a hot bath, massage, wine etc etc to boost spirits can't even be done so fat lot of good I am. But, chin up love and I still ahve everything crossed for you
MissK - hehe I hear you about the irritable, I'm with you on that!!! As for congratulatung you on your 20 snobubs - that is one of a long lost of dumb things that I've been doing the last few days!!! Like yesterday for instance. I live a good hour from work and was on an afternoon shift yestie. Dunno what I was thinking - was meant to start at 4pm so I thought, if I leave home at 3.45, I'll have tonnes of time and it wasn't till I was part way that I thought, crap I've left home an hour late :doh:!!!! CRAAAAAZY lady!!
PETTA - welcome to our little forum :hello: How much longer do you have before your BT? Three more sleeps for me and they won't go by fast enough!!! Hoping that this little blasty is the one for you and thanks for your cramping reasurances. Still cramping away but at least I'm not on the brink of tears evey 5 mins now :rolleyes:
Me - still plodding (and cramping) along. New mantra . . .will not poas . . . will not poas . . .will not poas :o

Thanks everybody. You just never think you're going to be one of those people that can post a :bfp:. All of what I've been through, the amount of time it's taken, and my age. It truly is a miracle and this is the closest I've ever gotten.

I spoke with my Dr yesterday. He's just the best. I feel a lot better. Now to get through the next Beta test and hold the :babyneutral:

They're right - the waiting is never over. It comes in stages, each as nervous as the last.

I'm going to love you and leave you. I think I should do the right thing and step away now.

Your support has been the best as always. The girls in here are nothing short of fantastic - everytime. And it just helps the whole process so much.

Take care everyone. Your turn will come. I really believe that - now that it's happened to me - the seemingly impossible. I just did not think it was in the cards for me. We were talking about getting 2 big doggies and fostercaring as our plan B as a real option this year.........

I'll be popping by :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug::pink-babydust::bluedust:

BT on 25/02 so 5 more sleeps to go. Starting to go a little crazy as I'm on Crinone twice a day this time instead of progesterone pessaries. Side effects are disgusting and the nausea and tiredness feels just like pregnancy so it is messing with my head. Just :pray::pray::pray: that this time is it.

I have already resorted to 2 dogs, 2 cats and fish. My hubbie has banned anymore furbies so time for a baby.

Hi ladies
Thanks so much for your support and encouragement - could not have got through this without you all.

Mindhugs ~ HUGE CONGRATULATIONS and all the best for a H&H 9months!! :dance:

Petta ~ welcome and all the very best!!

Melissa ~ I had cramps as well and thought it was over, now look below. FX for you still.

Miss K ~ Still have everything crossed for you!

OK well AFM ~ exciting news, just when I thought it was all over and decided yesterday (6dpt) to do a POAS anyway to see one way or the other, to my shock there was a faint 2nd line. My FIRST EVER 2nd line!! Did another one today and a slightly darker line. Something must be happening right?? NO AF but I do still have headaches - so perhaps they are stress headaches afterall or perhaps my body hasnt registered the pg yet or something.

Oh Loops that is WONDERFUL!!!

I have been lurking for a week or so just to make sure everyone was ok but I had to post.

YAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!! that is exactly what happened to me and I am now 35wks preg!!!!

Hope its not jumping the gun but i do feel like CONGRATULATIONS are in order!

Big hugs,

Sammie

loops big congratultions to you darling!!! I am so excited for you!!!!

Hi lovely ladies!

Well, I'm back. A bit quicker than expected (ovaries behaved themselves for a change!), and there's quite a few names I don't recognise. So, HELLO! to all of you I haven't met.

Loops - OMG!!! :dance: Yay yay yay! I'm so excited that you've seen that magical 2nd line... only a few days til your BT, so :crossfingers: :goodluck: for you!

Mindhugs - looks like you've gone elsewhere, but CONGRATULATIONS to you too! :clap: Don't let anyone ruin your excitement, some people aren't so well suited to the medical profession, are they? ;)

MissK - I too am taking aspirin - Cartia. When I first saw my FS she tested me for everything under the sun, and found that among other things, I have full-blown ANA.

MelissaL, Petta - hope your TWWs are bearable.

AFM - doing our (lucky?) last IUI, ovaries behaved themselves perfectly this cycle and I had the IUI on day 13. So here we go... waiting... waiting... Have decided that this cycle, I'm going to blame EVERY symptom on the Pregnyl and not try to second guess (yeah right!). To make matters worse, my BT is on my birthday, 05 March. Uh-oh! :rolleyes:

Have a good week, girls, sorry to anyone I missed. :crossfingers: for you all!

OMG LOOPS THAT IS AWESOME NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!! Told you I didn't hear any fat lady singing!!!! I was almost totally convinced to poas tomorrow morning but think I'll just wait until Tuesday and BT. Thats what I'm thinking atm, bound to change. WOOHOO!!!!!

Looooooooops!!!! OMG OMG OMG CONGRATS!!! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay Yaaaaaaaaaay come on darker 2 lines tomorrow!!!

Thanks ladies, you are all so fabulous, id be absolutely lost without you.

Unfortunately though might not work out the way I was hoping. I think AF is basically here, have had brown and tiny bit of red blood, small cramps and had a big headache all day yestie. Might try and bring my BT forward, just to find out exactly what is going on.

Ive done 4 tests now and all have had a 2nd line - faint lines only and one I did this morning was lighter than the last. So not looking good at all.

Petta ~ hope you're feeling good for BT Thursday, FX and GL

Melissa and Miss K ~ hope you girls are feeling positive and no signs of AF etc, FX and GL :stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy::grouphug:

Loops, I really hope for you it is an implantation bleed :pray::pray::pray:

Petta ~ thanks hun, could be and I can only hope!

Loops! I am :pray: for you !!

melissal - HELLO CRAZY LADY!! I am LMFAO!! I did that last week I set my alarm at 9 thinking I started at 11 but noo I started at 10 and needed to be there at 9.30 whoopsie hehe!! We all have those days :p

Petta - 3 more sleeps till your BT :D

Leabie - I hope this IUI will be the last you will need to do anyways!!!!

AFM - I am getting very moody and no patience so I am kinda not getting my hopes up at the moment!!

Hi lovely ladies
Most of you have probably already seen my other post in LT TTC & A thread but AF def here with avengence. We got that one step closer this time so coping ok after a good cry. Thanks for all your wonderful care and support. xoxo
I have BT tomorrow so might write one more post in here after that then I guess im out of here until next time.

Wishing you wonderful ladies all the very best and I'll have F &T x'd for you all!!!
:grouphug:

Loops - oh I am so so so very sorry sweetheart, that is just the unfairest thing. I am sending you the hugest cyberhugs that I possibly can and I hope that you are doing ok
Me - embarrassingly, I had a huge snotty nosed, bawling meltdown at work yesterday evening. I am the most pathetic person about!!!! I'd done an hpt on Monday morning which was a bfn, confirmed today by a bloodtest. Pffft if it wasn't for the phonecall from the fertility clini, it would've been an awesome day. Wandering round shops, coming home, DH and I having a nice little cuddle, going for a swim at the beach, having a few glasses of long awaited wine but no, it was dashed and spoilt by that nasty little phonecall. I am so glad that I did an hpt - forewarned is forearmed and all that crap. So anyway, we ar doing an FET in 2 months and in the meantime, I will make a concerted effort to lose my large IVF butt that I have accumulated through excess chocolate eating!!!!
MissK, Petta and Renee - GOOD LUCK my lovely girlies, hope you are all hanging in there during your 2ww ordeals and hoping you all are fortunate enough to be able to see two gorgeous little lines very soon!!!!

Melissa ~ oops I went to the other thread first so you can ignore that post. So sorry hun - (((big hugs))). Thanks for your care. It does make it easier when forwarned - at least a little anyway. My warning was migraines. All the best with your FET - wish you all the luck in the world xoxo Hope you get two see those magical 2 lines. And GL with the weight loss!

loops and melissal - I am absolutely gutted for you both!!! I am soo soo sorry!!!

Oh no, Loops12 - so very, very sorry to hear your sad news. Sending big hugs to you, :hug: I'm so pleased that you've taken something positive out of it all. Rest up and spoil yourself.

Melissal - so sad to hear your news too :hug: hope you are doing OK, GL with the FET in two months.

Hi :hello: MissK and Petta, and anyone else in here.

AFM - no news, just plodding along, only at day 5, so long to go :doh: Having symptoms, but am successfully blaming them all on the Pregnyl (so far!)
