LTTTC Two Week Wait - Jan/Feb 2009

[MsPink]

I'm back..!

Wow - never seen so many people in here...my wish is that we all leave within the next 2 weeks for good.

Will take me a while to catch up.

Had ET yesterday. Were still morulas, not yet blasties...so very much hoping they (2 of them) are fighters.

Best of luck ladies..

Evening Ladies

SPRING= Good luck with Bt tomorrow
ALEENTA= AF stay away
MEREDITHD= Congrates on frostie hope you won't need it after this TWW
xxROBxx= Good luck with BT
LOOPS12= Hope they are all good symptoms you are getting
KELLYD= Good luck with TWW
CUDDLEPIE= Good luck with transfer
WANNABEMUMTO3, BABY2BEE, DIAMOND AND MS PINK= Welcome and Good luck

AFM= Well AF showed up today a whole day early anyway had a talk with DP and when I ring FS tomorrow will be asking to make an appointment to talk about moving onto IUI's hopefully we will have better luck with those. It broke my heart to see the dissapointment on DP's when I has to tell him that we hadn't had any luck this time around it is so hard as I know he wants a baby just as much as I do.
Wishing all you lovely ladies the best of luck and I will be lurking to see how you are all going.

[spring]

Oh ladies! Give me STRENGTH!!!

I was certain AF was arriving last night when I was cleaning the house. Lower back ache set in and that is ALWAYS a sure sign for me...but nothing. Then all day at work I had that feeling, you know, when you think it's coming? Yeah well, negative, no AF. I should be happy as AF was due today and it's usually very regular. One more day to BT! Cross your fingers for me girls. I don't know how I'm going to get through tomorrow

Girls, best of luck for all of you who have just joined us. Sticky vibes to all. Let's go get those BFP!

Wishing baby - best of luck for tomorrow. A POAS BFN is not final. Wait for the blood test before you give up on this one honey. I'll be thinking of you.

Sweet Dreams my girls.

Hi Ladies

Newbie here, hoping to join you all in the 2WW. I'm 4DPO on our 4th cycle of Clomid + Met + Robitussin + Preseed.

We're feeling slightly more confident this cycle because we discovered that I have a 16 day LMP, not a 14 day like my GP insisted Thanks to OPK's I think we may have actually DTD on the right day/s - it only took 4 cycles LOL

Anyway, I hope everyone is coping o.k. with the 2WW madness and there's heaps of BFP's in the pipeline!

Hi girls!!

I've still hanging around! No AF as yet which is great, it would be due Friday the 6th, and BT Monday the 9th, so we will see.

Saw the FS last night which was a bit upsetting. He told me that I am an unusual case and they can't work out the problem. Wonderful, hey? Feel very apprehensive now, but I will keep trying if this one doesn't work!

[grub17]

Hi girls,

oh neptune that sucks. i hope you fs has a brainwave soon.

hi kylie, welcome. how annoying but at least you are onto it now!

i can't wait to hear your result Spring! you are there! hope af didn't arrive and its wonderful news for you.

big hugs for you wishingbaby. what a disappointment. hope your fs goes the next step for you?

hi ms pink - wishing you lots of stickyness! lol.

thanks for the support Babydreamtime. it's always so lovely when the ladies who aren't in the tww still drop in to spread the love.

hi diamond, lots of luck on your first cycle. i'm a little ahead of you.. we had our first cycle in november (BFN) and have now used our one and only frostie. this is a great place for questions - no matter how silly! take care of you!

baby2bee, hi lady! did you POAS? i think that's the battle everyone goes through! good luck.

Only one more sleep Cuddlepie! good luck

Hi MeredithD - good luck. when your's BT?

hi to loops, rob. aleenta and anyone else i've missed (sorry). sticky vibes for all.

AFM - am just chillin. I'm surprisingly calm following our transfer on Monday. Because frosite (or defrostie as DH dubbed it) was a blastie, my BT is in a week - wed 11 feb. I'm on a completely natural cycle with this, my first FET. So it doesn't really have all the build up of the usual IVF - and no drugs means no fake symptoms... i only have my mind to blame when i start "feeling'' stuff that ain't there. lol.

And a little confession - i've already discounted poor little blastie. I'm just not that attached to this ET. I just feel we just had to do this FET in order to start our next IVF cycle. i know that's just so horrible. I think it's a self preservation thing as well. I even tried to book holidays for a camping anniversary trip around NSW and DH was the one one point out that if this FET works, Oct probably won't be the best time for a holiday. lol.

so hoping for the best, expecting the worst.

sticky vibes for all... and like meredtih D said... there has to be some BFPs for some of us this month... it's just a matter of who! oxoxoxo

Hey Neptune, Are you doing IVF cycle, and if so how do you know when your AF is due. I feel like mine should have come and gone already, don't really know my body anymore, feels like it should be here but it's not, that's what I don't get. Will the crinone cream stuff stop AF ??? sorry to ask so many questions this is my first cycle and I am so confused.

Hope everyone else is still doing well xox

[JBM]

good luck to all in TWW. praying for some BFP in here soon.

[Baby2Bee]

Hayley I did POAS!!! It was positive (and a good positive - not faint) however I am NOT taking that as a BFP......last cycle I did the same thing, got a BFP (very faint) and then blood test was a BFN!!! NAUGHTY NAUGHTY NAUGHTY!!! But I couldn't help myself!! This next thing is going to sound attractive but does anyone check their cervix position through their cycle????

[TaRhLi.]

B2B: Congrats on your positive POAS. When is your BT due? Remember PUPO (pregnant until proven otherwise)...

Spring: I'm patiently waiting to see how you go today.

and sending lots of to all our other TWWer's.

AFM: Not much going on with me. All pain has seemed to have settled down now and our little embies should now be busy blasty's trying to find the best place to make themselves comfy. Only thing happening is just an increase in needing to pee... I think it might be due to my uterus being slightly enlarged (due to extremely thick lining) and slightly pushing on my bladder. Hopefully I will get used to that if our little one/s decides to be nice and sticky...

[Baby2Bee]

Kelly my blood test isn't due until Monday next week and I'm 11 days post IUI.....so i'm probably too early to test plus I'm having pregnyl injections every three days. Next is due tomorrow. I'm having some weird AF pains today which i had last IUI cycle however Very very low.....almost feels like it's in my 'you know what'!!

[MsPink]

Baby2Bee - pleeeeeeeese don't test while on Pregnyl. It gives false positives. You are actually injecting the hormone that you start to develop when you are pregnant. It will show up positive on a POAS. I sooooo don't want to burst your bubble, I truly hope you're PG. I just want you to be careful - it happened to me in the early days and I was so sad. The Pregnyl doesn't leave your system for around 5-6 days after the last needle. A BT will give def yes or no. Hang in there sweetie.

Wishingbaby - am so sorry AF showed up. Take care..

[Baby2Bee]

Thanks MsPink. I did the same thing last cycle and then did it this cycle I know i shouldn't have but for some reason after doing it I feel i can turn around and say....'ok! i know it's the pregnyl'!! Sounds backward i know!!

[grub17]

my fngers are crossed for you Baby2Bee but like the others said, don't set yourself up for a fall, good luck!

rob - yes crinone can delay AF. i delayed mine on my first IVF cycle. And a warning, when it comes i ain't pretty... what goes up must come down sort of thing. And another warning, although Im hoping you won't need it... if its a negative for you this cycle, you period will arrive a few days later and then you will mistakenly think your cycle will be back to normal. WRONG! The drugs can srew up your cycle - my last 2 AFs were a week late! no body at the clinic had bothered to tell me this could happen, so you can imagine what DH and I thought when it happened at chrissy! it was shattering.

KellyD - so sorry i mised you in my post! when's your BT??? stick babies, stick!

oxox

[TaRhLi.]

Hi Grub that's o.k about missing me in your post. It is sometimes so hard to keep track of who is in here and where they are at.

It appears that I am the last BT of this group (16th Feb). We have 2 day 3's transferred on Monday 2/2.

[Loops12]

Hi all

Whishingbaby - looks like I am joining you with AF pretty much arriving now, only light so perhaps I can hope that its something else. You can only hope I suppose. But I did have a feeling she was coming anyway. A bit earlier than predicted. And I did another HPT and got another BFN.

Spring - Have my fingers crossed for you big time, hope you go well today and you get that BFP.

Neptune - hope AF continues to stay away.

To the newbies - hi and goodluck, hope you get BFP's this cycle.
Everyone else still waiting - goodluck and all the very best

AFM - sad and once more disappointed but I suppose I did do the Pregnyl's incorrectly so hopefully that played a big part and that next IUI when I know what I am doing I will have a better chance.
I will stick around for a while and follow your journeys and hopefully give you some support.
xoxo

[spring]

Well ladies, a lot is to be said for gut instinct. I knew it wasn't my month and my BT today confirmed this feeling.

I'm doing ok. I'm more concerned for DH. He has had one blow after the other with work problems, depression, financial problems, and now this. You see, we are using donor sperm. DH is blaming himself, but his azoospermia is something he was born with and no fault of his own. The longer we are TTC, the more it cuts him up inside. Having children is all we have ever talked about since well before we even got engaged. I'm afraid this is the last straw. He says he doesn't want to go through it again, or if we do, to take our remaining frosties to another FS. Is that even possible?

Girls, please help. I need some advise.

[lyra stardust]

Hello all TWWer's!! Wow there are so many of us!! I'm afraid I'm not keeping track very well so sorry for lack of personal messages. It's really uplifting reading all your posts and knowing that other women are going through the same thing as you! It makes you realise you're not going crazy- it's just all natural emotion.

Can't wait to hear everyone's results...

How slow can a week go??? It's unbelievable. My moods are all over the place and I am having lots of period pain and PMS symptoms which is depressing. Had a not good day today.

Does anyone else think it's wierd that 3 (I think) have blood tests on or around our birthdays?? I think it bodes well.

Can anyone help me with this... I am on FSH OI and timed intercourse. If I get AF and BFN can I go straight into another cycle?? Also, does anyone know how many cycles they tend to do before trying IUI?? Not being negative but want to know what will happen just in case so I will be able to focus on the next step and not wallow. (My BT is on the 9th)

Anyway, good luck to everyone!!
