kittycat - will keep fingers crossed for you. it might not be over yet!? I thought red wine thinned the blood - not sure whether this would help or hinder pregnancy?? good luck.
jen - congrats on your transfer!! good luck for this TWW (ps, hate crinone! evil stuff...)
grub, minniemouse, loula and possums - hiya!
butterfly - congrats! that was a very short visit! hopefully we all follow you outta here into the pregnancy thread very soon.
becD - I'm so sorry for you. I really hope you're doing ok hoping your levels drop naturally and you can get back to a frozen cycle in the new year.
s'rose - hope the pains have stopped and that you're surviving the TWW.
cuddlepie - i hope you're surviving this TWW. know what you mean about the POAS ban! I could never ever stick to such a ban...the best I can do is to try and prolong POASing as much as possible!! Hope the twinges aren't driving you crazy (like they are doing for me!)
Ibb - don't give up hope!! countless friends have told me that AF symptoms are often identical to pg symptoms. So I agree with others - ignore all symptoms!!! Hope you're hanging in there.
JBM- how are you going???? I hope you're not going crazy (sadly, I think the madness has set in for me ) Hope that your positivity has continued and that your baby is snuggling in tight.
afm, I feel ok. still very slightly coloured (pinkish) CM (sorry, tmi again!) but I haven't been feeling as grumpy as I normally do pre-AF. Also my skin is still breaking out a bit (whereas it normally clears up before AF). So I figure this could definitely go either way at this point. Doing my best to ignore the twinges and tingling in my belly (but I like to think that it is my bubba holding on tight). I am going to POAS on Friday morning - 3 more sleeps - fingers and toes are crossed. (Sorry for the long post - but I wanted to catch up on everyone!)
wow, so many in TWW this time, i can hardly keep up.
Cuddlepie: yes POAS buddies on saturday, who cares what dh says?! good luck to you and sending you lots of sticky vibes .
lulu: thanks for the advice on injecting, i'm about to do number 3 injection and i'll try bit slower.
ibb: takes a while for swelling to go down after egg pick up, i'm still fat, or maybe that is i'm just a cuddly person anyway ? who knows. hope you feeling better soon
srose: hi to you , hope you going well
bec: hugs to you. so sorry for bfn. so sad . sending you some cyber hugs. xxoo
butterflyqld: YEAH, BFP !!!!! congrats to you.
jen: crinone is yuk stuff.i don't like it at all
kittykat: hugs 4 you, i sort of detox. i never drink coffee or tea or alcohol, but i cut down on chocolate . don't know if it helped me? good luck next time.
mels: slight madness i think 4 me . remember " ignore ALL symtoms" even ignore no symtoms, ignore everything. fingers crossed for you.
afm: well i am about to have 3rd pregnyl injection and am starting to feel a little crazy. no real symtoms yet for me. still positive and i even told dh the baby's name yesterday. i think he thinks i am crazy.
i will be doing a test on saturday, so 4 days to go.
Janet, if you are still doing Pregnyl injection now, Im afraid Saturday POAS can be misleading then...as Lulu point it out, it can stay in your system for 5 days....but hey with a fist of salt, you go crazy!
congrats to anyone who has or will have a this month......
i am out of the TWW race today. did a POAS like advised by nurse and it was a just a i had known it would be. anyway i am off to see FS tomorrow for a new plan of attack.
it is so different this time then when i did the full stim IVF. last time i was so sad and depressed. now i am just getting angry at my body for not making it work!
Butterflyqld~. congratulations for your BFP. that's the best xmas present you can get!
BecD~ i know what your going through. i had a hcg of 7. i was totally convinced i was pregnant and then told that it was not viable. i wish i had just been told BFN insteadand being so close.
will think of doing a fet in february. i only have 2 embies left.maybe i could use them then go back to IUI for awhile????
anyone had success with chinese herbs????
thanks...
michelle
hi to my TWW friends.
cuddlepie: i will be crazy for sure if i have to wait 5DAYS to test. THAT'S SUNDAY !!!!!
arrggggggg. hope you are doing well. lots of sticky dust coming your way.
kittykat: so sorry BFN. hugs to you
everyone else: mels, where are you? good luck to all in TWW
well i did last pregnyl yesterday and day 28 is this saturday the 20th. so if no af ( which there isn't going to be !!) then i am testing on sunday. got fingers crossed. still talking to baby heaps .
also got acupuncture tomorrow, fri so that should be good for me.
trying not to go insane. still feeling ok. sending good luck to all.
Between this morning and now, I have been depressed, happy, then sad, then depressed and now ok again. I don't know...my body is telling me that AF is coming and I think my mind is refusing to believe it and hanging onto hope. I am a bit sick of this...well, I hope AF stays away....
Well done Janet for getting over the last Pregnyl injection...yay! Ok, let's postpone POAS till sunday then....:-)
Hi to all and special hug to Mel, hope you are well....
I think i'm officially going craxy now - alot of my symptoms have dulled, still have minor cramping and sore BB but i am desperate just to know now i'm over this TWW!
So when to test .... i would like some opinions....
Last pregnyl (1500iu) was Sunday i was told to POAS Mon by FS nurse as they are closed so no BT BUT i can do a BT at work whenever i want????????????????? I want to POAS sat or sun CD29/30 (i had IUI cd 14) oh god i don't know what to do.....
Sorry about me post but i'm just so confused
I will BBL for personnals but your thoughts would be great.
Bella, if your last injection was Sunday, then I think you can POAS this coming Sunday....normally it takes about 5 days to get the drug out of your system...good luck hun...I can understand how you feel because I am in the same boat!
hi everyone...hang in there..the waiting is horrible, especially after an ivf cycle...
kittycat- so sorry it wasn't to be for you this time round
I am not expecting anything to happen this natural cycle, but of course part of me hopes a miracle will happen...i haven't felt any symptoms... i think I am 7dpo
I dont have any POAS at home...I am trying not to buy any..probably will though!
Kittycat - so sorry you had to go through the final confirmation. But I am glad you get to see your FS tomorrow and formulate the next plan of attack.
Mels - Hoping that the swing is in favour of a miracle. Sincerely hope the POAS Friday is very friendly to you.
JBM - Its definitely a crazy wait time... hope you can hold on until Sunday and that it gives a nice clear bfp.
Tania - Hope you are going well hun.
Possums - I hope that this cycle is kind to you and that you can resist the poas for a while longer. Praying that a sticky little miracle is headed your way.
Cuddlepie - Oh hun, I know what you mean and the hope and its fickleness lol. Hoping that its confusion means a little christmas bundle on the way.
AFM: Still getting the mild pains on and off every day... 8dpo today, so it needs to keep it up for about another week. I am hopeful and yet fearful all the time, as expected I suppose. But these pains are something very new, so potentially terribly exciting. I have definitely got fatigue, but thats easy to blame on a whole range of other things
I would also be encouraged by those pains S'rose...I had pains, stabbing, cramping, ovulation style, during the TWW when I was pregnant..well from about 8DPO anyway
hi to all but just wanted to send a special note and hug to BecD.
I'm so sorry for your news. i hope it isn't eptopic.
I'm thinking of you - hope you are okay. i don't want to say "hang in there" cos I can't even imagine how down and upset you are feeling atm. so will just send you hugs.
Hi all, sorry no time for personals as i have to go get dinner ready for DH.
I am 13dpo today. AF due tomorrow. Having twinges for last couple days and some AF like cramping yesterday and today. I think that Pregnyl is nasty stuff. It gave me all the symptoms of a BFP, sore boobs, wind, bloatiness than it all disappeared. It took about 6-7 days for me and i have not POAS'd as yet. I think i will if AF doesn't come tomorrow., stay away AF.,
To all the rest good luck with the 2ww, i hate it! It's torturous and i thought this would be easy...
Ibb, you are two days ahead of me, today is my DPO11...very much the same like you, I have cramps on and off all day and now have lower back pain now...it somehow feels a light different from AF cramp so I am hoping its better things happening inside....
Hope AF won't show up tomorrow and you get to see the 'two lines'...
Hi, well my time in here was short. AF did show up this morning. Quite depressed about it but was not surprised. I hope you all have better success. Sending good vibes to all the 2ww's. Will check in to see how you all go. Thanks for the support you gave me.
hoping your levels drop naturally and you can get back to a frozen cycle in the new year.
) Hope that your positivity has continued and that your baby is snuggling in tight.
so sorry for bfn. so sad . sending you some cyber hugs. xxoo
congrats to you.
GOOD LUK TO YOU ALL
just a i had known it would be. anyway i am off to see FS tomorrow for a new plan of attack.
