LTTTC Two Week Wait - Feb/Mar 2009

Oh Murph, I am so sorry hun. Wishing you all the best for your ET this week :hug:

I think I will jump in here this month. No IVF/ED cycle for us but plenty of EWCM and BDing to put me in the running I reckon ;)
Off to AP and to get new herbs for the second half of my cycle. I am getting warming herbs as apparently I need to raise my body temp as those of us with endo tend to have lower body temps.
Heres hoping!

Murph : Hugs for your mum, that is really sad. I hope your transfer this week goes well

Dusty: You and I both babe on the Natural TWW, I am waiting and praying we can have a natural little sticky miracle

Best of luck to everyone

:stork-boy::stork-girl:

This morning I was sitting on the crawling bus in the rain, thinking, 'the universe has forgotten me, I will never get there'....but when I log on and saw so many posts from your guys and your kind words, I know its not true. Just want to say a BIG THANK YOU, it really helped at this time that I know there are so many of you who do care and are there for support when I need it.

I am currently having fun with AF but I think once its gone I will feel better. I have booked an appt with FS next Tuesday to discuss the fibriods issue and the protocal for next cycle. So we will see.

I hope a string of BFP will continue in this thread, for those who are testing, best of luck, I will be lurking for sure.

For those who is not successful for this cycle, lets lean on each other to get what we dream of eventually, I am sure I will see you around.

Mollygirl, you are an amazing woman and I wish all the very best for you upcoming TR and hope this is the one!

Murph, sorry to hear about your mum, hope the ET will go smoothly this week.

Dusty, go for a natural cycle, all sounds very promising, everything is crossed for you hunny!

Cuddlepie, I am so sorry...it's so unfair... I'm glad to hear that all of our words do help, we really do want to help you feel a little better. Some people's journeys are just so hard, I don't know what to say... I've only just logged on to read your sad news. I hope your dream comes true soon. Be kind to yourself!

KellyD - congratulations!!!!!!!!! :clap::clap::clap: Yay!!!! So happy for you, that's great news. Enjoy the next 9 months!

Murph, good luck with the transfer, I hope all goes well and there's another BFP here!

Good luck to everyone else, I hope there's BFP's all round! :)

Murph - I am so sorry. How heartbreaking for your mamma and the family...

AFM - well I am freaking out. Got some weird horrible clumpy spotting. Its not a flow per say, and its brownish red. I called my FS and the nurse told me that implantation bleeding is rare and its most likely the beginning of my AF. I started crying and now I cant calm down. I keep checking every 5 minutes to see if there is anymore of it but so far nothing.

What the nurse told me is contrary to everything i have read, does anyone think she was trying to prepare me for the worst?

I am still a bit crampy but its not as bad as it was yesterday or the day before.

*deep sigh* I'm scared.

Hi girls,
thanks again for you thoughts and words.
Dusty, I'm so sorry that you are back in here again. You must have had a lot to deal with and you sound like you have come through the worst ready with a new attitude to start again. Goodluck!

My transfer went well yesterday. I arrived to find that I had two wonderfully healthy embryos and the specialist and embryologist were really happy. No fragmentation and a 10 cell and 12 cell still growing (not really sure what that all means but by their smiles, I'd say it's a good thing).

My test date is 2nd March.

Goodluck to everyone. BTW Sammiejam, we are all different, and no two bodies alike. Just try and ride it out honey and dont panic. be prepared that it's not your month if you feel like af coming and then anything different is a bonus.

Murph : Sticky vibes for your two embies, I hope they are snuggling in

Samm: If you are using Crinone, it could be that coming out in clumps

Hi to everyone else

Cuddlepie

Congrats to everyone that has had a BFP this month.....:clap:

and fingers crossed for all of those who are still waiting for news on there possible BFP's!!.:pray:

Murph. goodluck with yesterdays transfer. i am not sure about the cell's either? my last 2 embies were 6 and 8 cells, but they were only day 2 embies? i don;t ask many questions and just seem to leave it up to the gods. but that isn;t working so next time i will ask everything before hand!! are your's blasto's?

sammiejam. i am not too sure about impantaion bleeding. i never had it with my daughter, and don't have any friends thathave had it either. i thought i was having it with my last FET, but it was AF. it was a very light AF and the nurses said it could be an incomplete AF and so i had to do a BT just incase. it was AF.:wall:

AFM..i just awnted to drop in and say hi..i am cd22 of a natural cycle. i have been seeing a naturapath and am on a few natural medications. will be trying naturally until july before using my last two embies. i am taking VITEX 3ml every morning and have had very tender breasts. i think it must be from that?

take care everyone and BABY DUST on us all!!:grouphug:
:bluedust:

Hi Gals,

Murph- that is WONDERFUL! Sounds like your little frosty babies just started growing like mad once the scientist warmed them up! Hopefully they are snuggling into their warm, comfy mama as we speak :pray:

Your kind words of wisdom were so just what i needed this morning girls. I have woken up to a "gush". Must be AF that damn B with an itch! I am doing ok.

So with my bleeding and the crushing fear of "failure" I was feeling - I got to thinking. I realised how hard I have been trying to control the outcome of this entire IVF thing. I came to understand that because I was in control the first stage of the cycle (the meds, appointments etc) that I could also control the second stage. I am a very organised person. I dont like suprises. Handing over the reigns has never been my forte.
But I know that Mother Nature take over once the embabies go in as she is going to make the decisions from here on, whether I like it or not. She knows better than I do and I have to trust that whatever she decides - is the best outcome anyway.

I think this is true for alot of things in my life. I try to hard to control the final result and I get upset when I cant. Something for me to work on I guess...

Oh well, enough rambling from me.

Wishing strength and Baby Dust for everyone!

Sammie.

sorry no time to even read personals, i miss you all so much but just been so busy with scholl for me and work and life etc.
anyway looks like we're on track for march FET!!!!

going 4 scan on monday


got everything crossed

hope for a BFP so badly. our last frosty

good luck to all xxxx

Hi everyone.... :bluedust::pink-babydust: for all.

Murph, firstly I am so sorry about your Mum's partner! Secondly, your embies sound FANTASTIC! 10 and 12 cells are goood. So hoping they are snuggling in tight right now.

Sammiejam, hang in there hunni. You sound exactly how I was with my first 4lots of IVF. Total fear of that loss of control. Sounds like you have had a real breakthrough with your thinking today and that is great. Relaxed positive thinking from now on. (must listen to my own advice!)

Hi to everyone BD like mad for their natural cycles this month, there are a few now.

JBM, March is so close, your turn soon.

AFM, I have absolutely no patience or self control and I POAS again today. I just about had to have a magnifying glass to see it but there was definately a second line!!!!! I have been having the dull cramping for over a week now so I had my suspicions (hence the constant POAS) and am praying like mad that it is strong enough to come up on my blood test tomorrow. I wont get the blood results till Sat arvo (while I am at tennis) but I will POAS tomorrow and see if it is any stronger. Hoping like mad that it is a stayer!:pray:

Good luck everyone!

Thanks so much Sazz, I am trying really REALLY hard to just accept that things are what they are. Even though I did everything "right" and it all went smoothly and according to plan - it just didnt bloody work. No one's fault, nothing to be done, I just have to move forward. (and try to stay positive)

I am so happy for you. I have everything crossed and am sending sticky, happy, snuggling-in vibes. It really is a numbers game and the odds are now stacked in your favour. I will be eagerly awaiting your update tomorrow!

JBM- Got everything crossed for your BFP too. I am almost in knots with all my extreamities and limbs being so crossed!

AFM- another big gush this morning and dark red bleeding intermittantly. Totally different to my normal AF but I know thats what it is. Going to get a BT tomorrow but the results will not be a suprise :(

Hugs to everyone

Sammie

Sammiejam, I am sooo sorry to hear AF is here. I was hoping it was just a funny implantation bleed or something but it sounds like you know what it really is. :( Still wait for the official results. Miracles have happened. You are right, there really is no telling who's turn it is and it just seems so bloody unfair sometimes! Special hugs for you :hug:

I'M BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!

lets hope its for the last time and that the incredible run and BFP's can rub off on me.
ET was done this morning and I now have 2 beautiful embies on board and they are off finding somewhere nice to snuggle in.

Hope this TWW is bearable although its really only a 10 day wait as my BT is March 2.

:pray::pray::pray::pray:

Me again!

POAS is evil! I did it again today as I had one stick left and wanted to see if I could get a stronger line. THis time it was definately a -ve :( *sigh* now I have to wait for the bloods, either the test results tomorrow or AF, which I imagine will be nasty after having had a +ve..... aaaarrrggh give me strength.

Thinking of you today SJ. Do you get your test results today or tomorrow?

Are we waiting on anyone elses test this weekend?

:bluedust::pink-babydust: for all!!!

hugs, Sazz

Ok, so my worst nightmare could be coming true. I have just returned from FS and it looks like I am having yet ANOTHER ectopic pregnancy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is after I have had 3 ruptures and my tubes are GONE! How you may ask? (I did, I screamed it) Apparently the last surgeon may have left a teeny stump of fillopian tube right next to my uterus and my wee embybaby has somehow travelled in there and implanted. Its not 100% sure yet but its looking like it.

I am devistated, horrified, angry, TERRIFIED and a how host of other emotions...

I truely cant believe this could happen again. I am in shock...

I will have the results of the tests this afternoon and will keep you all posted.

Sazz- sweety, those poas are the devil's playthings. Ignore it and tell yourself PUPO.

Hugs everyone.

Sammie

Sammie, that is horrible news hun!
Big hugs!
