LTTTC Two Week Wait - March 2008 #1

[Acacia]

Scooby, sorry to hear your news :hugs:
I hope you're doing ok. It's pretty scary when you have to look at your next option being a step to the next thing i.e. IVF. But there is lots of hope ahead of you.
Hugs, hun. We're all here for you if you need.

Waiting1 - glad to see you back here I am relatively similar to you in the pace that I am following one cycle after another one without a break and the moment, and I"m not surprised it is all wearing you out - it's certainly wearing me out. Don't be hard on yourself, and try not to loose hope. If it helps (it helps me at the moment) that the fact is that most women who continue on with IVF treatment - even when it gets past half a dozen times - end up with success and the dream come true. It just takes some women longer than others, even when there is nothing wrong. Hang in there, hun. Hope the wait goes quickly until Friday for you.


BT in the morning for me, but I'm pretty sure I'll be back into another FET cycle in the next week. POAS on Friday morning was negative, which would have been the day of AF on a natural cycle for me, so I'm not hopeful for tomorrow. I wasn't going to say anything about it until after the BT, but putting it out there now is helping me prepare for the most likely result, IYKWIM?

Good Luck Kyles, I'll have everything crossed and be seriously pretzelling for you all morning till we hear your news.

Hope everyone is going ok and had a good weekend

Hey ladies ... I probably should be in bed resting up (but of couse cant sleep)! I have my transfer tomorrow so look forward to joining you in the 2WW! I am having a blasty transferred. Does anyone know on which day it implants?
Looking forward to seeing lots of BFPs in the coming weeks so we can all move across to the PG threads!

Hi Ladies

Scooby - so sorry that your AF arrived - why can't she pack her bags and go on holidays for 9 months like she is supposed to. Thank you so much for your luck and good wishes for tomorrow

Miss C - I have everything crossed for both of us for BT in the morning You know you can never rely on POAS - they have been known to be wrong before. It is now 11pm sunday night here in Perth and I am too scared to go to bed cos I know I won't be able to sleep - every twinge, ache etc I keep thinking here comes AF. I have also been rehearsing in my head the phone call tomorrow afternoon - please let us both have good news.

Next time I log on tomorrow I will know my result

Talk to you all then xx

[Carla MP]

Scooby..so sorry to hear.....keep the faith huni..its such a horrible feeling I know. I think every lady in this thread can understand exactly what your going through
Mon...GL..things will go great for you. How many days blasties are you. I had a 5 day blastie..Im not sure what day they usually implant but would love to know...anyone know this?
Saph and Waiting.............yes cycle buddies.....you guys feel ok..Im ok..nothing differetn really although my specialist said that the blastie was great and was much better than the other we have had transferred....dont wanna get my hopes up though but still want to keep positive........I have tried not thinking of it too much.......Im having problems with someone at work and is making me verys stressed so i think that has kept my mindoff it although all I want to do is slap her and walk out>.....Im scared this stress may effect my results!

[Acacia]

Hi everyone,

Just a quick note to let you know that my BT today was a BFN
Moving straight on to a last cycle after AF arrives in the next couple of days (after stopping the pessaries) before we move on April 16.

Kyles, hanging out to hear how you've gone!! Everything still pretzelled for you!!!

Good Luck to all you lovely ladies in the TWW at the moment. Sending you lots and lots and lots of sticky vibes.

Miss C

[Carla MP]

Oh Miss C I am so sorry...........god that is sooo not fair....sending you all the cuddles I can right now. Go have a wine.....hey go one further and have a cigarette too...JUST BECAUSE....... (not that I condone naughty stuff...LOL)

hang in there and get a lot of rest ready for the next round.....

[Carla MP]

Hi
I was just wondering if anyone knew the answer to this...
I had my FET on Friday as a 5 day blastie.....so when would it stick.....has it already...does it later.....what day would this have occured....does anyone know??

[scooby]

Hi everyone
Happy ST. Paddys
Missc: i am so sorry, in a way im kinda glad i got AF that phone call really S**ks. Hope you are ok. Where are you going to live the uk, is it permanant ?
Saph: beware the POAS post pregnyl, last month i was testing positive, although very weak line 5 days post pregnyl injection. I think the best way if you really want to is to do a succession of POAS and look for it getting darker or lighter. Good luck.
Carla: sorry dont know the answer to that one, at the IVF talk i went to they said implantion generallt takes a couple of days, but thats with embies, so dont know if its different. All the very best though.
Waitng 1: i hope this is the one for you, hang in there
Kyles: hope you get that big BFP today to cheer us all up. waiting to hear.
Mon welcome and good luck.
Well im outta here and wont be back for a lvery long 6 weeks as i do down reg this month. I will keep lurking and wishing you all the best for those BFP. Im off to snuggle up with a hot water bottle (killer cramps) Thanks so much girls coundnt go through this with out you all.

[Mon]

Scooby and Miss C, so sorry to hear about your BFN! That is a Big Fat Bummer! I hope AF is kind and that you can move forward. Big hugs.

Carla MP, i asked this morning when went for my transfer, it takes a day for embie to settle in and then a day to implant. So your embie is well and truly implanted! YAY! I also had a 5 day blasty transferred. All my hopes are pinned on this one as the rest stopped growing, so dont have any for the freezer (again)! Its a beaut embie though and fell in love with it straight away! Wishing you all the best!

Kyles hope you have some good news for us!

Waiting and Saph wishing you all the best as well!

Hi girls

Well it is a big BFN for me too - I would have loved to give you all some great news to help inspire you all but this was not the month for me

Miss C - I am so sorry - cycle buddy - bad result for both of us I have to stop pessaries too and then ring clinic to organise day 21 appointment before we can start next cycle - looks like april for me too - maybe we will both have much better luck next time

Scooby - I even wore a green top and had a green lucky charm necklace but even the luck of the irish on st paddy's day was not enough unfortunately.

Overall, I feel fine - I had a feeling this would be a negative so I had mentally prepared myself. In saying that, I am still going to treat myself to a big greasy hamburger with mayo for dinner tonight and maybe even a glass of wine later

I just wanted to thank everyone in the 2WW for all your support, kind wishes and baby dust that has been thrown my way - this journey is a lot easier when you have other people to talk to who are in the same situation

[scooby]

Oh Kyles, so sorry, well there is nothing left for us to do but drink a few pints of guinness, saying as you already have your green on!!!!! Hugs, hope your doing ok, good luck in april.
Enjoy your hamburger, eemm im hungry damn PMS

[kyles68]

Hi Scooby

My hamburger was delicious - I don't have any guiness so I will have to make do with an Aussie beer and pretend I reckon.

Kyles and Miss_c

So sorry about your BFN. Bad day all round really. Not alot anyone can say hopefully next time will be your time. Lots of

[Carla MP]

Thanks Mon
I have been trying to find out all day....probably should have just called my Fs I guess. So hopefully my embie will stick and stay there...
So I am taking your transfer went well....??? So your BT should be 28th??? Oh god its sucha horrible wait....8 more sleeps....i hope it makes it!

Hope everyone is doing well... so not many personals but definetley keeping an eye on everyone.

xoxox

[Mon]

Kyles ... so sorry about your BFN! this TTC journey can be so rough! hope you are taking good care of yourself! keep the faith ok!

Carla, yes my BT is the 28.03! DH and I go away for Easter Long W/end so at least have a distraction in between! I have promised myself and my little embie that I wont POAS! I will wait till the BT, otherwise I will go nuts! I would say your little embie is nicely implanted by now! My little embie should be hatching today ready for implantation tomorrow! Its nice to know what's going on and to visualise it! Keep talking to my embie! I am already attached!

Question for any of you that are using Crinone ... do you find that it tends to leak out. I dont know if that is normal. No real symptoms yet except for the odd twinge and sensitive BBs but I know that's the crinone! Its going to be hard to not start reading into things! This 2WW really does your head in right! I keep trying to be positive and I hate it when a negative thought pops into my head ... have to try really hard to zap it and not let that thought snowball! Fun fun fun!

Hope you are all doing OK!

[Carla MP]

Hey Mon
Lucky you to go away..I just put in for 1 weeks holidays in April regardless of my results next week!
Crinone..yes I have used it before....yes it does leak out....but I didnt find it horrible liek others are saying....I really didnt have an issue. I am on progesterone pesseries at the moment at night...my FS said i didnt need them but told him I wanted to anyway to give it every chance..not sure whether it will make a difference. Now they are disgusting..you have to lie down for at least half and hour with those as they dissolve and they leak...yuk....its like oily stuff!! sorry TMI!!!

Do you think I am supposed to feel anything by now. I have some pain down below and feel like something is pushing on my belly button. I only had my transfer on Friday so not sure whether I would at this stage....you feel anything?

[Mon]

Dont worry about TMI Carla ... yes have been getting oily stains! fun!

I am not really feeling much at the moment as was feeling pretty shocking on the lead up to transfer as was severly bloated and in pain. My ovaries still feeling full. Last time on the crinone I was getting cramping, but now have only noticed some slight twinges, but dont know what to make of it! I have also been feeling nauseas prior to transfer at times so its kind of hard to tell with all the drugs being pumped through our bodies + the procedure we have been through! Just keep feeling anxious on and off! that's the hardest part! And you?

Hurry up 2WW!

[Carla MP]

hi Mon
Yer I kow what you mean, Iwas like that too after my EPU then transfer.
Im on my 3rd FET so no drugs for me this time thankgod or the last time....so I was able to go back to back on my period instead of waiting another month..straight into the next transfer.
i feel alittle odd but liek oyu said I think it may be the anxiousness kicking in and going then coming back and going again....
Its hard to stay positive after so many BFN's but maybe this it it...FOR BOTH OF US!!!!

I am finding myself not wanting to get excited or not really thining too hard about it allthis time, I think it might be trying not to think negative....we will soon see wont we.
7 more sleep for me and 10 more for you baby face...we can do it!!
