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
Welcome to all the newies! Congrats to the Lani! Yey - great Easter Bunny present!
The POAS debate is an interesting one - sounds good Bella - I always POAS as I couldn't stand to find out the dreaded news on the phone - especially receiving the call at work...and especially since I never get AF before beta test so would always be thinking if it worked - atleast a POAS warns me/prepares me!!! I buy them off ebay - nice and cheap and reliable! And it is always in the back of my mind that a faint positive could be from the trigger - mind you yet to see one yet!
So my update - got a BFN negative on Friday and am still waiting for AF to come properly - so weird as normally it comes with vengence and is full on - not sure why it isn't coming properly and basically not at all! And not much crinone coming out - maybe I'm blocked up!!! So no natural FET this month as cycle all over place - bring on May
Good luck to others in 2ww and those who are cycling!
Happy Easter - may it bring lots of 'buns' in ovens and lots of 'eggs'!
P.S - Not sure which thread it was - can't keep track! - but someone asked me how FS was monitoring diminished ovarian reserve?? It is done through blood tests at ovulation time. I've had two tests so far in 12 months to monitor it - it is low but not critically low yet. Antagonist cyle way to go though - I have 5 days on clomid then 10 or more days on gonal at 375ml and then 3 antagonist shots/ one trigger then pick up! Always average 10 eggs at pick up and normally 6 fertilise through ICSI and transfer two and 4 normally make it to freeze!!
Happy Easter, LEt's hope it really is a GOOD FRIday!!! for some of us....
pollyanna75..hope you get your proper AF soon. there's nothing worse then waiting for it to come, when most of the time you don't want it to show!
Loops12...good luck with your TWW. Your symptoms look promising, but it is hard to know when you are on all the diferent drugs. GL for the 16th!!
Possums..Thanks for the advice. I spoke to the nurse yesterday and told her my concerns. I am getting a list together of all my concerns and problems!! (it's long!!)
I think there is something going on that we don't know about, and wish like you that we had found it years ago.
bella55...GL with your faint line. I am holding off until sunday to do mine! i have a rule that i only use my first morning's pee, and i am usually busting and forget. So that get's me out of doing it early..hahaha i have had 1 second line in my life, 2004. DD i now realise was a total miracle. i think i did 10 test's before i would believe it then (TTC 2yrs then)
Murph01..good to hear from you, and to know it's all going well. i do think the support is great at BOB's place, don't get me wrong. But when you have secondary fertility you seem to get put into a different group. i had fertility problems with my daugther, and concieved her nat after 2 yrs and 1 xlap for endo. this timeis so much worse and i just don't fell like bob wants to try everything. i will just start hounding him, he might just get sick of me and want me to be UTD!!!! thanks for the support.
Buggirl..so sorry that you are out this month.
ASF..well i have had AF back and stomach cramps since monday! yes 5 days and nothing. not even a spot! (Sorry TMI) so the nurse yesterday said to hang in over the weekend. if AF does show i will be back on the drugs for another try next cycle. if nothing shows by sunday i am using my only POAS!!!
bye!
sorry if i missed anyone out!!
Ive had a bit of a teary today as even though AF hasnt arrived it feels as though she now just around the corner. But this afternoon Im trying to think positively because I still have a few days to go before test time and am now hoping maybe its pg pains. Although I have a head ache too and that is generally not a good sign for me. Any idea's if it is too early for pg to register yet - im at CD20 and 10dpo?
I really hope all is progressing along OK for you.
So no natural FET this month as cycle all over place - bring on May
