LTTTC Two Week Wait - Feb 2008 #2

[deni]

:O OMG Bel !!!!!! WOW what great news to hear !!!!!! - GROW EMBIE GROW !!!!!!

Thanks for the POAS advice... I literally was driving back to work 20 minutes ago after a client visit thinking "tonight I might buy a HPT and test over a few days, maybe it'll give me a hint" ..... I still have a single HPT at home (but wasn't enough to compare over a few days) - now I'm going to keep it until I have a BFP BT phone call, so I can run to the loo and see for myself !

everything looks GREAT on Thursday !!!!!!!

[deni]

Bel - if you don't mind me asking, what did your clinic consider to be "low" levels? how many days post transfer were you?

Tish - best of luck for you too hun !!!

Hey Deni
Any signs for you yet? Thinking if we have the big BT on the same day we should be the same dpt??? I had mine done Thursday 14th...you?
I have sore boobs.....dull pains.......I WAN TO KNOW NOW!!!!

[deni]

Carla - No.. my transfer was on Monday (day 3 embie) so I'm 8 days post transfer. Was yours a blastie though? I think my clinic allow extra generous (frustrating!) days before final BT.
BBs are only slightly sore, probably due to the hcg injections I do every 3 days.
I have moments of feeling a little strange/possibly nauseaus but I'm pretty sure it's in my head.
I thought i had a bit of spotting a few days ago but dont know for sure - that very lightbrown-tinged CM which is gone again now... but I've had that before with unsuccessful cycles.. i know my progesterone must be OK as I had a mid luteal with fine results and am on pessaries.. so who knows!

Hope your sore BBs are telling you something great!

Hi Deni
I had 5 days blastys......so if i had my transfer on Thursday..does that mean I am 5 dpt ????or 6?
I havent had any spotting thank goodnes...last time I had transfer I bled on the 6 day after transfer....so I think i have made it this time so things must be better than last time. Plus I had to take crinone last time and this time I have not had to take anything...not even anything for progesterone.....NOTHING....which makes me think I wish I had have just in case.

[Tish]

Bel look at it this way, a PLP (or p1ssy little positive) is better than a big fat negative!! It means there's hope!! The way I'm thinking about it is if the levels are going up that's good enough for me until I'm given compelling evidence otherwise Also, I have been planning my work and life around when I would "know" which as you know keeps being put off so I wasn't getting much done

I know it's gut wrenching to hear "It's positive, but...". I pretended to be OK through the whole convo with the nurse and melted down so badly after I hung up my hubby could barely understand what I was trying to say. Allow yourself some time to digest what's going on, but know that this is still good news

*hugs* thinking of you!!

BeiBei I hate crinone too!! I was thinking next time I'd rather do injections!

Deni you're very strong, I couldn't resist the urge!! hehe

Tish

Deni- I was 10 days post transfer, with a 5 day blastie. I have no idea what my low levels were. I didn't ask and after much agonising today and with the help of a friend, have decided not to ask. I can't change the levels and don't want to stress myself out. I'll wait til Thurs and check with the nurses then. Want to remain positive.

Have a good afternoon everyone
Hugs Bel

Evening ladies,
I guess I can officially plonk myself down in here now after having my first IUI yesterday. I have a little more than a 2WW as I have been told not to test until the 6th of March - that's like forever! Also I have been given a HPT and have not been told to have a BT - has anyone else had this before?
Congrats Bel and Tish on your PLPs (I think that's a brilliant term Tish!) - Heres hoping those levels are through the roof by Thursday.
Lulu and Bec - I have my fingers crossed for you both and hope that you have a pleasant surprise on BT day.
Hi to everyone else and best of luck to us all

[Cuddlepie]

Oh Bel, I am thrilled for you, what a wonderful news! Hope your level will go up nicely until the next b/t...

Bec, evil it is that what I say! Oh well, we still have hope hehe...I am hanging on a thin thread though, bad feeling...

Love to see all your ladies here and that's the only thing can cheer me up just to talk to you all...

[deni]

Welcome ATT, hope the next two weeks flies by for you !! Nope I haven't heard of the POAS for the docs before... do you live far from a pathology clinic? You're really going to have to hold out til that date, that's gunna be hard when they've physically given you a stick !!! Hope it's great news on the 6th

Hang in there Beibei and Bec ...

Lulu -sending major positive BFP vibes your way - hope the BTs prove you wrong (in the best possible way)
