Hi WTH - I had minor cramping the day of transfer then nothing else until 3 - 4 days before my BT when it was huge cramping - v. painful. I thought it was AF coming even though I had never had any cramping before (put it down to the stim'd ovaries etc). The morning on the BT was the worst. My test was due on a Monday, but I asked to be tested on the Sunday instead (didn't want to be at work for the results). They agreed under the proviso that I was aware that the results could be borderline and I may need to test again on the Monday anyway.
I had a day 5 blasty and no crinone or anything. All I ended up with was the shot of Pregnyl for trigger and another 2 shots of 1500 pregnyl over the following 2 weeks.
I made my husband take his camera and take a photo of the blasty before they transferred it back (REALLY wish I had a photo of the eggs prior to fertilisation) emailed the photo to a guy that does photos on canvas and received the completed canvas back 2 days before the BFP. DH said I shouldn't get my hopes up and I should wait until we got the news....I think there is something to be said for having high hopes ;-)

I am hoping on board the TWW rollercoaster today, IUI is at 3pm, DH and I are all ready to go, I have been jabbing away with Puregon 100 iu so my follies will be nice and juicy for todays transfer, I feel excited and am happy to join you ladies
Looking forward to hearing everyone's results for today
Just wanted to quickly pop in and tell you that AF arrived early on Saturday morning. Im pretty shattered. Have been crying off and on since then.
I went for my blood test this morning and asked the nurse what the next step would be as I dont have any frozen embryos. My FS already had a script ready to go for my next cycle. Unfortunately the clinics close over the Christmas/New Year period and dont open until 19 January so EPU cant be done before then, but everything else can.
Thanks for all your support and well wishes. Hope to be back here in January.
Good luck to all. My thoughts are with you. and lots of
MissM: So sorry that AF has showed her face and that you have to wait till the new year to start again. Make sure you take some time out for yourself and if there is any positive, you can at least have Xmas food & drinks as much as you like and then focus on 2009 being your year.
What's happening girls. We had such a promising start with c2w and Alloy's BFP's. Now JBM and MissM have had dissappointment. Come on Dusty, you and me this week, lets see who can get another BFP.
JBM and Mindy80 - Hugs ladies, I'm so sorry that the stupid witch arrived - blah to her! Hoping very much that you have success next time around.
Hayley - Yay for positive thinking! I hope this is the one for you Sorry I can't help with the Crinone either, I'm doing Pregnyl shots.
Dusty - Oooo, only 2 more sleeps! Lots and lots of sticky vibes coming your way...I know how you're feeling too, I'm also starting to think should I be feeling pg by now or what?! And I'm losing a bit more of that positivity that I had last week just worrying how I'm going to deal with a BFN if that's what I get. But I'm glad you enjoyed hearing about my parrots So give it up hey - what's your story with your blue bike?? I really like your avi too BTW, how rude of me not to say that last week!
Gargy - Good luck today!
kasam - All the best for the rest of your TWW! Those side effects sound awful, but I hope they lead you to a BFP!
KellyD - I would try not to lose hope yet, if you aren't having your BT until Thurs it may well just be a little early to POAS still. Good luck and hope you are surprised with a BFP on Thurs.
WTH - Just sent you a note back Try not to stress, that's a lovely encouraging post that Nixon did there for you!
wouldloveabubba - Good luck with your IUI today!
Tania - I'm so very sorry to hear you got AF, that just sucks Take care of yourself and hope that the next month or so goes really quickly so you can start that new cycle
AFM, well I don't really know what to say just not feeling so confident today (Dusty you need to kick me I think!) The Pregnyl symptoms have pretty much gone, but I've had a really blocked nose the last few nights now so between that and having to get up to go to the loo I haven't had much sleep. So maybe because I am tired that is why I'm not feeling so good about things today - I don't know...I hate the TWW I just want Friday to arrive so I know!
Megsmum - just a quick one for you - I found I was getting up once or twice a night to pee at around the 2nd week of the TWW and still busting when I got up for work at 6.20am (and may be TMI - but bad constipation was also another indicator for me - used to be very very regular).
I also started to lose ope towards the end of the TWW - it's easy to be positive at the start after all the BT is still 2 weeks away - it's when the reality of getting close to finding out hits and you realise that you are human and need to start to protect yourself that it gets hard to be happy go lucky about the whole thing all of the time.
Personally, I don't think that being 100% positive all the time is healthy ;-). Also, when you do get your BFP you might realise that deep down you didn't think it was going to happen anyway and be totally shocked and happy. At least that's what happened for me.
Not long to go now.....good luck forthe rest of the TWW.
wouldluvabubba - good luck with today's IUI - I hope you have a sticky one!
MissMagpie - I'm so sorry that AF showed up. Hopefully the first cycle of the new year will be a good one as I'm hoping that I'm able to join you for that one.
Meg'sMum - I had the same experience as Nixon during the TWW - at first I had almost stabbing pains and then I had to pee a lot and was constipated - and I got a BFP which didn't work for other reasons at 8 weeks - but I got the BFP and saw a heartbeat - so I hope you are on your way.
Was your transfer of a blast?
