My computer at home has "pop up" madness, so I am going to try and post as its driving me crazzzzy, so if I dont reply to your questions, it's b/c of my computer
Aleenta: I will be poas over the weekend, and my BT is on the 5th,
Spring - Hi and best of luck for your frostie snuggling in - if you read back over the last couple of days there is a dates list posted,
Loops - hoping your symptoms are are warm up for the real ones... did you choose your name from Fruit Loops ?
Saph - BT this week, ohh how exciting - best of luck for you
Grub - c u on Monday after your transfer
Neptune - how are you going .. positive news for you I think miss
AFM: I have been feeling so cr@p .. Sooo moody and teary, and sort of angry, depressed, oh you name it I have felt it, I cant shake it... It is all the drugs leaving my system, surely, making me feel so negative and hopeless. Have you guys had withdrawal symptoms from the drugs ? If that makes sense ?
Wouldlove - I'm sorry you're feeling so yuck. I've only really got one other IVF cycle to compare it to, and yes I did feel like that once the drugs wore off...it was horrible, I was soooo miserable. This whole process can be very cruel like that. Sending you big hugs my friend, hang in there!!!!
Hi Spring, welcome!!
Aleenta - I'm not sure when you should POAS. I would definitely think 2 or 3 days before BT should be safe? I'm going to try and not do them this time round (ha....just watch me!).
Loops- I'm doing my 2nd pregnyl today. Will watch my boobs swell and nausea settle in. Good luck!
Saph - You'll be the first off the ranks for your BT. Waiting with bated breath sweetie!
Grubs - how exciting for FET!!!
Hope I haven't missed anyone? If so, to everyone!!!
AFM: Slight streaky spotting yesterday, just on loo paper. It really and truly looked just like the spotting I can get pre AF...sometimes about a week before. So I've stopped getting my hopes up about it. Have felt some pulling sensations in right groin area, but I also got that last time on Pregnyl, so who can tell? I could also be constipated, and it could be wind pain!!!! Oh the joys of the 2WW girls, it is nooo fun. I"ve kind of lost my positive feeling too.
Neptune !! What are you doing up in the middle of the night !!
Morning girls,
Neptune, thanks for your support, I feel better this morning, I went to the beach late last night, then slept and I have hit the safety net in Jan !!! So if I am unsuccessful at least I can save up and try again, I dont "feel" preg, I want that feeling back I had at the start of the tww !!
When will you poas ? do you buy the ones of ebay ?
How is everyone going .. us Melb girls are Hot Hot Hot , we fitted evap cooling 2 weeks before christmas, it has paid for itself allready
Well here on perth it is cloudy and quite cool. Today is my first day back at school. but what you all really want to know is the result of the poas....................... very faint second line. Taking it with a grain of salt as last pregnyl was sunday but i was due for finial bloods today maybe it is real. So will do another test tomorrow and sat morning and see if it gets darker. keep your fingers crossed for me.
Well I really undersimated the TWW. I had my transfer Tues (1:30) and it's only 48 hours later.
I have had a little cramping (Is that Normal???) I just keep thinking everyday with no AF is a good thing. Then I think am I or aren't I, we have even nicknamed the embryo "George". I said to hubby it could be Georgina but he is happy with George.
So will George stay or go, and if George goes we will have to do this all again. OMG!!!
Anyway girls I am so sorry it' my first time and I have no idea what to feel, think or expect.
Wouldlove - I was up early today b/c the dog decided to jump on me at 5am, and then must have heard someone outside b/c she then barked right in my ear! I was wide awake after that and had a busy day at work so just got going. Glad you feel a bit better today.
Thanks Mels! That helps
Hey to all you other 2WWers and the lurkers!
AFM: I have quite a lot of bloating and discomfort in the general vicinity of my uterus! Must be the pregnyl; I have looked up the side effects, and yep, cramping and discomfort is the number one side effect! Feel blah.....going to try and get some study done tonight.
It is heating up in Sydney, but not as bad as Melbourne.
Yes, I"m afraid all of that is normal! Welcome to the 2WW madness.
WE all go a bit crazy in here. I went so far today when I had a thought, "Gee, won't it be a good story to tell everyone that we had a cancelled IVF cycled that was converted to an IUI, and what do you know, we got pregnant!!!"
Saph ... gee you are so good waiting, I could not wait one more day than I had to, however I completly understand your work commitments, and that you would rather be at home either way, good luck, I am sure the line will get darker, I will be thinking of you
Neptune .. Naughty doggie
Rob .. Is cramping normal, ha !! nothing is normal in the tww my love, so believe me by the end of it you will know every creak and crack your body has
Hey Mels - thanks for your support, hope you are well
Hi to all you lovely girls,
Im feeling the ol' pre af pains, bloating etc.. My early preg tests arrived in the mail today (naughty I know) so I will be sending my self insane with fmu, everyday until bt, I am going to admit it to you guys because I wont let anyone else know ... oh wouldn't it be nice ...
OMG - Can Melbourne get any hotter???? I am surprised the computer hasn't had a meltdown yet!!
WLAB - glad you are feeling better today - and I totally get why you want to take some control back by POAS - I think we all have to do what helps to keep the madness at bay!! BTW - what's with the ebay tests? Are they cheaper than chemist? Or more reliable?
Saph, hope your lines gets darker by the day and Sat comes around really fast for you - will be thinking of you
Rob - it is so damn hard this whole waiting game. It seems to take forever to get into 2TT and then once you are in here it drives you mad anyway!! Hang in there and vent all you like in here..
Neptune - love you positive scenario - keep that one going, it can't hurt : What a great story to be able to tell people!!
Thanks everyone for advice re POAS - I think I will try to hold out to Monday or Tuesday, I would like to be strong enough to hold out for BT but I don't think I have it in me, and besides if no one else knows, no harm done really... Gee the whole symptoms thing is so damn annoying - one minute I think I haven't had any, then I get twinges and funny feelings below my tummy, and my BBs have definately grown and are a bit tender (but maybe it's all in my head LOL!!)
If you can hold off until Mon or Tues and your BT is the day after mine, I might hold off too, it would be really unsetling to see one line ,if I make it that far ..
The poas are on ebay .. heaps cheaper than the chemist, there has been lots of discussions about them on BB, some girls like them, some girls dont. I have found them to be reliable, and they are good if you are a serial poas-er , you dont spend a fortune at the chemist/supermarket, they arrive in packs of up to 50 - so there are some serious poas's in there...
WLUB - Thanks for the tip about the BT dates for everyone on this thread. Nothing like a bit of sun and fresh air in those lungs to bring the best out of the situation When is best to POAS? What doeas POAS stand for so I can look it up.
Aleenta - Hang in there! I'm going nuts to now too with still one week to go! How ever will we cope!
Wishing Baby - I see you too is having your blood test on the 4th. Hopefully we both have BFP coming our way. Wouldn't that be wonderful. Hope TWW isn't driving you insane just yet.
Rob - Welcome and best of luck for your first time. Wouldn't it be lovely to be successful first time around? I hope you are and look forward to seeing how you progress. This is only my second time round, and the first time I can actually enjoy it, because of insane OHSS last time. Anyway, all the best
saph - I have my fingers crossed for you for a BFP. Give me a B, give me an F, give me a P! What does it spell?
Mels - Hope you are doing well
Neptune - Hope the naughty dog is behaving and you got some study done
AFM - I am starting to go a bit nuts waiting for BT. Maybe I should start a hobby. What would you lovely ladies suggest?
Otherwise, all is well. Work is very busy. My only colleague has been sick for the last week, so I have had a heavy work load all this week. It's not so bad, at least it's keeping me busy, and the air conditioning is awesome.
Saph - I just thought this morning that your BT should be today and logged on to check on you. that sounds all very good - thinking of you and hoping the BT confirms a BFP
well sorry to say no second line this morning, so back to the start for me I guess. BT tomorrow will just confirm BFN. Didn't really get my hopes up as I felt that it wasn't my time. Have to take the next month off (rubella needle required, even when we are not cycling we still have needles) so March here we come.
Best of luck to all of you who are still in the TWW.
Oh Saph, I am so sorry, but what type of POAS are you using? There is still a chance, will be sending lots of BFP sticky vibes for your BT tomorrow and hope you get the surprise of your life.
Saph - so sorry to hear that. Hang in there - we will all get there in the end - positive thinking ox
Thinking of everyone waiting whilst I go insane myself. Tempted to do an early HPT but I think I will restrain. Have a wedding this weekend so that should keep my mind off things. Also my DH and I arent doing too well - big fights over work etc and what to do with our lives - to dairy farm or not to. We have nearly had to seperate a couple of times now and we have only been married for not quite 2 years. Maybe I could put it down to TTC.
Also the fires in Gippsland are getting very close to my folks farm - so that is also keeping my mind off the wait as well. Fires are less than 10km away.
WLAB - Loops sort of came from Fruit Loops. My dad calls me that and others call me Loops. Also it is just one that people dont normally use on websites etc. Lou is normally taken.
Anyway - Im still thinking about everyone going insane with wait and have my fingers crossed for all of you.
Take care

: Wanted to add something
I'd like to join this little gathering - I'm in the TWW for my 2nd IUI cycle. My BT is on Tues 3rd Feb, I'm already 13DPO but my clinic always schedule my BTs for 17DPO. How annoying! I've got one more pregnyl injection to do tonight and then nothing until Tues.
As you can imagine I've got random symptoms which are probably more like pre-AF signs, such as mild pelvic cramps, sore and heavy bbs (they're an E cup normally so you can imagine how heavy they are with the pregnyl!) and chocolate craving. That reminds me, I should go and buy some healthy lunch so I don't graze on the chocolate in the kitchen at work.
I am so sorry to hear that you must be terrible disappointed. Don't want to give you false hope but I think as long as AF is not there, maybe wait until the BT before giving up on it
