leabie so sorry to hear your out:grouphug: and that you had to tell DH over email. I don't know about you but I think the worst part of going through all this is having to go home and tell DH that it hasn't worked. Take some time out for yourself you deserve it and be kind to yourself too.
Leabie, so sorry to hear that. Big :grouphug: to you. Life's a b-i-t-c-h sometimes, especially when you're going through it alone. Look after yourself and spoil yourself, okay?
So sorry leabie (((((hugs)))))
Brunette- we had day 6 transfer as i had to have a hatching blastie for PGD testing to detect a disease i carry.
AFM- i spoke to my nurse who could tell i was starting to freak a bit so she told me to have my test today. I live in the middle of nowhere so i think she wanted my results tomorrow rather than on the weekend also. She was not happy i did the HPT and said that you can get a false positive from the crinone and estrogen pills, BUT, i have a friend with QFG who says that is not true and that QFG tell you to POAS the day before or of your BT. So i have been for my test, and will find out if i have any pg hormones by lunch time tomoz!

Hi Ladies
Well as I suspected it didn't work again. I feel pretty numb at the moment and now I'll be out till March 2010 wont be able to make another cycle this month and figured what's the point of doing Jan when we are away in Feb. I'll be learking around to see how everyone is going hope at least some of you get a BFP this month
Oh Terry, I'm so sorry hon :comfort: Today's been a s#%t of a day so far, hasn't it?! Enjoy your break from this madness, get some old-fashioned lurve from DH and just try and have some fun this silly season.
Thanks ladies for all your support :grouphug:, you've been a godsend for me, especially as DH is away.
Sorry Terry :grouphug: I really hope 2010 is your year.
Last week seemed to be the lucky week, and this week are the BFN's, im sure mine will be BFN tomoz :shakehead:
xx
terry-good luck with your results. we cant get a loan coz DPs credit rating is pretty bad at the moment.
Brunette i will tell DP about Dr Jackson.Seems like DPs analysis issues are from him being a heavy smoker.not sure how successful i will be getting him to quit smoking even after telling him what was said yesterday
missed your post about your results terry.sorry that it wasnt the result you hoped
sorry af showed up leabie. hugs
Really sorry to hear that, Terry. :grouphug:
Hi ladies....I hope you don't mind me busting in on your thread :redface:. I haven't been on here in a really long time but just needed some company. I am on day 6 of my 2ww (actually only 11 days) and going crazy! :wall: I had a beautiful little blasty FET on Sat 28th and my BT is on the 9th. Feeling tired (but that may have something to do with the fact that I keep waking up at 2am!) and have had some cramping/twinges. I've only had 2 pregnyl injections....1 last wed, 1 sat (day of transfer). Could the cramping still be from pregnyl in my body? Because it's too early for AF. Any support, stories or venting of your own would be great. Better than going nuts all by myself.....:D
Hi Bj, welcome to the nut house, we are all going nuts. Lol.
I can totally feel AF coming, i expect heartbreak in the morning, just in time for my BT results :cry:
BJ, Welcome. It does seem like a madhouse at times! Sorry can't offer any advice on the cramping and pregnyl thing, as I only take pregnyl as a trigger. I have heard other ladies talk about taking pregnyl for purposes other than this but I really don't know anything about it, to be honest. I am sure there are people in here who can help you out. Good luck for the TWW!
Jaki - One more sleep. :crossfingers: Good luck tomorrow.
terry ~ I am sorry to hear about your results. Hope you are doing ok :hug: Try to relax and enjoy the next few months off. I am not back until Jan next year and I must say I am enjoying not having to think about TTC especially with xmas just around the corner. Lets :pray: 2010 is our year!!!
leabie ~ sorry to hear about your results :hug: Take care of yourself whilst DH is away.
Hi :hello:
I'm sorry to read that it has been a bad couple of days for people in here, :hug: to all who need them. I haven't been able to keep up to date with everyone because I can rarely get access to a computer (DH at home working for 3 months and is a computer hog!) So sorry for the lack of personal comments.
I'm 7dp3dt today and have just started feeling so sad. I already feel like it hasn't worked for us, the only symptoms I feel (tiredness, sore BBs, night urination, sorry TMI) is likely due to the progesterone. I know it's too early to "feel pregnant" (so DH keeps telling me) and it's too early to give up, but I just feel so dejected. I had been going so well too so I don't know what happened, maybe all the progesterone adding up? I really bonded with our little embie, DH even nicknamed it Squirmy, I will be devastated if he doesn't hang on. Guess I have to wait for BT on 9th. The second week of the TWW is always the hardest!
Sorry for the selfish whingey post. I'm finding this waiting thing so hard today.
Hi girls,
Took me a few days to find time to log back on here.
So sorry to see so many BFNs - Terry, leabie so sorry girls, hang in there.
Jaki80 don't give up yet hun it's not over til you get that phone call.
Sal - sorry you're feeling down. We're at similar times, I am 11dp5dt (I think I wrote that correctly?) and the 2nd week is definitely harder. Are you on progesterone pessaries? I am, and I'm not sure I've had many side effects. It's all so hard to say really!
AFM - spotting lasted a couple of days and was pretty minor. My b**bs are sore and noticeably larger. Still having a little bit of cramping but it seems less now than a few days ago.
4 sleeps til BT on Monday - I swore I wouldn't POAS but I'm not sure I can hold off. Trying to fill my Monday with mundane things like taking cats to vet for annual check up and getting my hair done.
Also DH and I have decided, since he's starting a new job soon and won't be able to take holidays for a while, that if this cycle hasn't worked then we're going to Europe for 3 weeks from the end of December. We'd been thinking about it for a while and after such a crap year we've decided to go ahead with it. Unless by some miracle I actually am pg, in which case he is totally against me flying (and to be honest I am too!) so no Europe trip. But of course I would get a baby and that is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better as we all know.
Anyway at this point I don't think I'm pg so at least I'll have something to look forward to.
Mrs P and Sal :welcome:. I posted to you in another thread, Mrs P.
Sal, don't give up hope yet. I agree with you that the second week is the hardest. I am usually the opposite and think I might be pregnant, and when I'm not the fall is much harder than convincing yourself that you're not pregnant - when you might be ... It's so unfair that the side-effects of progestegone pessaries are the same as if you might be pregnant (ie veins, sore boobs, tiredness etc). Good luck in the next few days!
Hello Ladies,
Jaki80 - I've got everything crossed for you today! I hope you get your BFP!
Leabie & Terry - I'm so so sorry to hear about your results :grouphug:. It never gets any easier. I really hope 2010 will be your BFP year.
Trubabe - you've got some some challenges there but it sounds like you're in very good hands. I wish you the best of luck!! :goodluck:
And for everyone else, I really hope Christmas comes early for you with BFPs all round!
AFM, I'm going to get back on the horse in January or February 2010. I think I might see a naturopath between now and then to see if they can give me some miracle herb to make things work for me.
Sal79- You are not alone, I am feeling exactly the same....and our BT is on the same day! This waiting game really sucks and I am feeling really down too. But I think it is a way of our heart trying to protect itself from the crash if it is a BFN. Don't give up yet though! Hang in there with me ok :pray:
brunette could you pm me contact details for dr jackson please as i cant find a listing for him
Trubabe, I've PM'd you with his details ;)
thanks brunette.i rang at first was told feb was earliest we could see him but then just had a cancellation for the14th of this month
Brunette, Mrs P & BJ - thanks so much for your support, it really helps. The first week of the TWW I was fine, energetic even, but I have become really emotional (hormonal?) since yesterday. I know it will be a miracle to fall pg 1st go at IVF with a 3dt, but I am :pray: I'm hanging in there with you, BJ.
I accidentally had a whinge at my Mum earlier about how I was feeling (side effects, etc) and she thought I was pg! She knows about IVF and I told her about the hormone treatment but she didn't put two and two together. I told her I've been "feeling pregnant" for the past 4 months because of hormone treatments! :o Now I feel sad because I've made her hope. Today continues to be a sad day, I think I'm going to go outside and sit in the sunshine!
OMG, im waiting for the nurse to ring and im going insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Was supposed to get results by lunch time, had BT at 9am yesterday!!!!!!!!!
Had a major flipout last night cause i felt my AF coming but so far no actual signs of her except cramps. :crossfingers:
Feel really sick today, but i think that is defo nerves.
Hey ladies
Thought I might jump in here even though Im only in a natural TWW and only just!
DH and I have been on some different herbal tablets that we got from my uncle who is a naturopath and so I am hoping they would have helped us already, FX
Dont give up hope ladies - no matter how stressful TWW gets you just never know until the fat lady sings. But I do know that is easier said than done! F & TX for all of us!!!
Jaki ~ GL with the results today :pray: :crossfingers:
Hi to all
Sal-Miracles do happen! The 1st one is the hardest, it feels like a real shot finally and there is so much going on leading up to it and then we just put so much hope in that little embie....we just can't help it. Don't worry about your mum, right now you just need to focus on you, she will be fine. I am still feeling the downers today too so sitting in the sun sounds like a good idea. Its hammock time I think. Hang in there babe :hug:
Jaki-: GOOD LUCK!! I hope they don't make you wait too much longer. Fingers crossed for you!!
AFM I am still getting cramping/twinges on and off but not bad ones. I am also quite bloated and getting white discharge on my nickers (SORRY TMI) None of it can be from progesterone support cos I'm not on anything! I was SO SO stupid and did a HPT this morning.....why oh why did I do it?? It was neg but I only had FET on Sat so it would be too early anyway...please tell me it would be too early anyway! :wall:
Hi Ladies,
Finally I am back! I have precious cargo on board as of today and in the dreaded :2ww:. Despite the pain and crazy emotions I am of course glad to be here and share the insanity with you all! Fingers crossed we all make it through on to the next chapter and get a great Xmas present once and for all!
There are a lot of names that I don't recognise, I must admit I have not posted for a while. I found with this stim cycle I just could not do BB - I was popping in to check on some oldies that I cycled with in the past but have to say I am not up with where everyone is at - so apologies no personals - I will try catch up in my 2ww.
Good luck to us all and hopefully this is the last time in here! (at least for a while anyhow and for good reason!)
results are BFN
hcg is 10, most likely have had a bio chemical pg. will retest on tues.
I'm so sorry Jaki :grouphug:
Can't say anything to make it better, but hang in there hun.
So sorry Jaki. You going ok? :comfort:
Hi Nix, welcome to the insane wait, company is always nice! I understand being away from BB for a while, I did the same. For me, adjusting to starting IVF was difficult and I needed time to process it before I could acknowledge it to the world. I hope your TWW is as enjoyable as possible! :)
Jaki-I'm so sorry i have been keeping an eye on the other thread waiting for your results my thoughts were with you all day.
Jaki, I'm so sorry, hon. Hope your DH takes good care of you this weekend in particular.
Nix, welcome to the TWW.
BJ, probably too early to do a HPT so don't stress. I haven't succumbed to the pull of POAS yet but I am starting to inspect my nipples (sorry, TMI) and take my temp, although in my wisdom I decided to take it in the middle of the day instead of first thing in the morning :redface:
Thanx ladies for the support :grouphug:
Ok so last night I couldn't stop crying for some reason and this morning when I woke up at 2am (again!) I went to the bathroom and there was a light brown colour on the paper when I wiped (sorry TMI) ?? My cycles are NEVER normal so I don't even know when my AF would be due but I have a really bad feeling that this could be it :crying: My BT isn't til Wed?
bj don't stress just yet. I remember the nurse yesterday telling me that even if you get that kind of discharge it doesn't nec mean the bad news. Looking at your sig you have a frozen bub on board right? So no prog support / gel? Cos that can often give you discharge like that particularly towards the end of the 2ww.
Just think, stressing is not going to help so try to chill about it. We don't have a lot of control over these things so the best you can do try not to worry yourself too much. I know its easier said than done - try keep yurself busy and pampered by your DH. And at least you are only 4 sleeps away from BT. Your on the home stretch now!
Jaki80 - so sorry hun, take care of yourself this weekend.
BJ - that could be old blood from an implantation bleed. Don't give up!
Loops and nix - GL with your 2ww's
AFM - going CRAZY. DH is away for work until Sunday afternoon. I am currently 12 days post transfer of a blastie... and although I swore I wouldn't, I caved and POAS today.
Now I'm freaking out because it showed up positive within ten seconds. All I am taking is progesterone and estrogen, no pregnyl etc, so my mind is telling me that perhaps this is a positive, but I can't believe it. Previously when I've POAS I'd had pregnyl in my system still and got some light positives but they went away closer to test day.
I just don't know what to think. Don't want to get my hopes up yet again.
fingers crossed its a definate BFP for you mrsp
Hi all
Just sticking my head in here. I've not posted in the TWW thread before as I am normally too emotional... but here I am! Feeling strong today. I cried a lot after EPU (in the clinic) for no reason whatsoever. And I was pretty calm with ET as well... soooo different to last IVF cycle where I was bouncing off the walls.
MrsP - sounds really good for you. FX'd.
Jaki - sorry to hear your news.
Bronsie - have you tried Sharkeys? They helped to regulate my natural cycle, but I had endo (unkonwingly) so I never got a BFP. Since my endo op i've been doing IVF and not herbals, though some people do both.
Daisie
Mrs P - Definitely a good sign! You must be very excited. When is your BT?
Daisie - I cried after both my EPU's too! But then again on my ET day I cried towards the end of "Bride Wars" the movie!! It seems it doesn't take much to set me off at the moment!
Good luck hun with your 2ww! FX for a BFP!
Mrs P - hope its not the support and a true BFP! Only a few days to go to find out!
