buggirl- so sorry...and it's OK to be 'why me', I certainly feel that way about the things I have been through and the fact I am still not pregnant. It's understandable and I am really sorry it didnt happen for you this time
kittykat, sorry it looks like AF is going to arrive for you also. I pray you can have success very soon
afm- well, I too am waiting for AF. By my calculations I am now 14dpo, still negative HPT
and DH and I still wrestling with whether to immediately resume IVF, or try naturally for another cycle. I think I am ready to be a bit more proactive than that, given my situation.
Hi girls,
just had a read through to catch up where you all are. We do always think of you in here, even though our lives have taken a different turn at this point and there is so much more to worry about now being pregnant, than when we were just trying. Some of you will remember me from being in here a couple of months back. I just wanted to say, I know your pain and frustration.
I also know the giving up and consoling with a block of chocolate (ok, 2!) when I thought AF was arriving and I turned out pregnant, so don't give up hope, do your POAS and bloods, you just never know. We only know our bodies so well, but with all these drugs, they trick us sometimes.
Kittycat, I'm really feeling for you and wish you could find a way through with Dr Bob without having to lose your cool. Totally understandable, I'm really surprised about the lack of support you are getting (in terms of drugs that you want). My friend's cycle was 42 days and he got her on drugs to sort that out and she got preg straight away no extra help. IVF and IUI is a relatively young science and they don't have all the answers yet, so try everything. Goodluck.
Just so you don't envy the pg girls too much, oh dear, it's not all beer and skittles. I don't even know form one second to the next whether I am still pregnant or not and tests are few and far between. Noone likes morning sickness, but at least it is some ways comforting to know you are sick for a reason. I went cold turkey off all the supports last week and now there is no swollen bbs or anything from pessaries or other drugs and I'm losing weight. At least I stil have an insatiable appetite that this tapeworm gives me!
All the best and thinking of you and all your trials. Hope you have answers and can move forward soon.
BTW, Congratulations to the girls who have their BFPs. fantastic news and look forward to meeting you in the other thread when you are ready.
Murph- thanks for dropping in. I know how stressful being pregnant is also, having been through stressful first trimester stages, and that anxious time of the 12WW!.... nevertheless...i want to get back there so much! I really hope all is progressing along OK for you.
kittykat- just wanted to add, that you may have read my other thread where i have been diagnosed with antiphospholipid syndrome...an autoimmune problem. Farmgirl also has this, and they found it to be the reason why her embryos weren't implanting. For me , it is the reason for my losses. Dont be shy when it comes to asking about tests. I truly wish I had been screened when we first began IVF....i would be pregnant now if that had happened.
I'm sooo saorry i have been MIA - felt i was coping better when just lurking!
Buggirl and polyanna - so sorry your out this month, i think chocolate is definately the way to go!!! Take care.
Loops hope your coping and not going to insane!
Hello to everyone in the insane 2WW!!
Well AFM.... I'm (if ovulation is EPU?) then i'm 13dpo and (if transfer is day 1?) i'm 9days post day5 transfer...... I'm so bad and POAS this am and there is def a faint 2nd line within 5min ... oh my god do you think this might be it - i have never had a second line before in my life.... i have had no symptoms all along except last 2 days increased clear watery cm, intermittent cramping and last night noticed my BB are sore if i pinch them! DH is annoyed i tested and is trying not to get to excited and so am i!Thanks for listening!
Smithy - Thanks for dropping in and your wishes. Hope everything is going well for you
JBM - thanks for your support. Hope to see you back in here soon
Possums - GL with everything. I hope AF isnt coming. Its hard isnt it, we can't really afford to go into IVF right now if this IUI doesnt work. So I just praying so hard that it has worked. Thinking of you.
Murph - thanks for popping in. Hope everything continues to go well with your pregnancy
Bella- I really hope this is it for you. Sound promising, I will have my fingers firmly crossed for you.
AFM - Im at 9dpo and have had a few interesting things happening. But not getting my hopes up in case it is the hormones again. Ive had a lot more kind of stomach pains this time around, Ive had weird pimples on my legs (very strange), still have sore BB's and fair bit of muceous. I just hope AF isnt arriving early but who really knows. Have to hang in there until BT I suppose on the 16th. It really is TWW madness.
Hope everyone else is coping ok in here
My thoughts are with everyone xo
