KellyD - I'm so very sorry And to top it off having to wait that long for another cycle - that just sucks Take care of yourself hey?
Tania - Sounds like a good plan for your next cycle. All the very best with it!
Possums - Sorry to hear AF showed At least you can have one more natural try before you next IVF, will be for a little miracle for you!
Alloy - hope you are well!
Dusty - Yay again! Only 1 more sleep to go now I need a biting fingers emoticon here now I think!
WTH - Have sent you another little note
Sorry if I have forgotten anyone, good luck to all!
AFM - Still no visit from AF yet, but trying not to get my hopes up, there is still plenty of time for her to show up today or tomorrow morning. Maybe it could just be the Pregnyl holding her at bay?? Anyway I have my BT and an FS visit tomorrow at lunchtime, so hopefully should have some idea late tomorrow afternoon
WTH: hey, I've got a good feeling about dec 1 for you, me and kasam. but i'm with you, what's a sympton, not a symptom?? as for cramps, i think that could be your belly being babified... hope it is!
Alloy: I know the countdown is on! Even DH admitted he'd counted the days to BT, ha! and he thinks i'm obsessing. hope you are well??
Megsmum: not long now!! don't go near those hpt, look at dusty's story, and unforuately kellyd's - hpts: inaccurate for ladies like us. I just know tomorrow is your lucky day. good luck, will be thinking of you. STAY AWAY AF.
Dusty: again, congrats. your hpt drama has helped keep me strong and away from buying any more (yes considered sneaking one through).
Possums: Hugs. I'm realy sorry. I hope your dec cycle throws up a little treasure for you. I think it's good to focus on the positives.
KellyD: I was so sorry to read the second post after the hpts. take care of you.
MissMagpie: that's a very good idea - enjoy the festivities in all their glory. If/when I don't get a bfp (don't want to jinx myself), that is what i'm doing. we are going away to tassie (dh's family) and are going to really just relax and enjoy ourselves.
AFM: Nausea has decided to make me its BFF, ugh. But i'm sure it's the crinone's evil doing. But from yesterday afternoon and all through today i've been really, really thirsty, which i took as maybe a good sign. but this has made me feel very positive and very hopeful when realism and caution is requried. am i setting myself up for a fall, that will really hurt??? want it so bad. af is due sometime from tomorrow, not sure of an exact date, so
KellyD: oh hun I am so sad for you. It is just such a tough outcome after your HPTs. They are the pits. I hope you can find the strength to pick up, have the rest of the year to yourselves and start 2009 a fresh .
Megsmum: 1 sleep to go...I am hoping that this is it. is one of the best signs you could ask for at this stage. Good luck with it all, chew away cause they may be growing back really fast soon...
Thank you all for your lovely messages and excitement. You have been the bestest crew to hang out with these last couple of week. I always follow you all and your ups and downs and feel the pain and excitement with you. May you all have your BFP and baby in arms very very soon
KellyD - I'm so sorry about your test results today that really sux that you have to wait so long to start a new cycle too, don't you hate Christmas sometimes? I hope you are looking after yourself, and I'm sure that 2009 will be your year
Megsmum - Pregnyl has never kept AF way for me in the past, I've got my for a bfp for you tomorrow!
Hayley - I hope your nausea and thirst are good signs. Not too much longer to go now, I hope the AF witch stays away for you.
Tania - a drug free and relaxing christmas sounds good, hopefully that is what you need to prepare for a bfp in the new year! hun, I hope your doing ok
Possums - Sorry your natural cycle didn't work out, I am for you for your next cycle.
to WTH, Kasam, Dusty, Farmgirl and anyone else I've missed
MegsMum - today's the day, my sweet. Will be thinking of you. As usual, have PM'ed you. But just want to wish you goodluck again
KellyD - I was so sorry to read your post. I know you must be so disappointed. I can understand how February does seem a long way away. Would your FS consider doing a "short" cycle? I have just done an orgulatron cycle. It means you start on Day 1 and do not need to take the pill or down-reg. This might not be what you want to do. Just want to say something useful and helpful. So sorry.
Kasam and Grub - not long for us three December 1 girls to go. When are your AF's due? I am confused about mine. My EPU was on a Saturday, so I cannot figure out whether 14 days later is a Saturday or a Sunday IYKWIM. Grub I have been very thirsty the past 24 hours!
Dusty - hope you are enjoying giving your tummy those well-deserved mummy-to-be rubs
Alloy, Neptune and Farmgirl -
AFM - I continue to get mild AF-like pains and have been waking up very early each morning (the latter has happened to me in past PG's). Boobs are mostly sore in the afternoon/evenings. Had mild backpain all yesterday. Mostly just veerrrrry tired... Yep - I think I may be over-analysing just a little bit. Actually, way too much!
Kahlan: I too am hoping it was a late implant as well. If it happended to be the day 3 5 cell emby, then I am thinking wouldn't it be a couple of further days behind schedule as it needs to make up the cells that it lots and then keep growing. Fingers crossed for the new BT tomorrow, but dont; want to get my hopes up.
No sign of any AF starting at all. The clinic think it might be the drugs, but last cycle with our BFN, I had spotting 2 days before the BT so my body seems to react normally. I woudl think this cycle that if AF was going to arrive on time I woudl definately know seeing I had to wait longer for the lining to thicken up and taking extra drugs for this to happen.
Anyway, I'll see what happens. Altough if this one doesn't work I'm going to push for some more testing to see if there is another issue. 2 out of 3 transfers getting some HCG (implant) and then losing them, seems to me a bit strange seeing as we have good quality embryo's and haven't lost any in a thaw as well. So if it isn't the embryo's it must be me....
Where's the hope - I have been getting kinda the same things, my hips are sore as well. Man I am trying not to look into it - just so darn hard! I have no idea when my AF is due - this is our first IVF cycle and neither the clinic or the FS has said when I should expect it. I normally have a very regular 28 day cycle so if you went 14 days from the EPU (I am not sure if that is right!) then I would have been due yesterday possibly today? God only knows!
AFM - Blood test on Monday and I am starting to really freak out - have started getting kinda cramps nothing major just little ones that I know are there so of course every time I go to the loo I get all worried that I am going to find something. If no AF in the morning I might test this whole TWW thing is really starting to play on my emotions - I am crying at the littlest things at the moment arrgghhh!!

HI all,
kasam i am the same... first cycle, didn't really think about af date so not sure... i assume i was due today or tomorrow or sunday??? well it didn't arrive today but i'm the same... every time i go to the loo i have a detailed inspection of the paper. should be on csi the way i'm drawing conclusions at the slightest twinge atm. aarrggghhhh.
also monday bt. have created a busy weekend calendar for myself in a bid not to completely lose my mind.
Hello everyone,
Work has been flat out over the past few days so no time to post, and only a little time to think about the TWW which has been nice
There seems to be so many of us in here at the moment, so sorry if I miss anyone...
grub and kasam - that af has stayed away has got to be a good sign! wishing you all the best for monday and hope that you are one of those lucky ones that get a BFP on your first cycles
Kelly D - sorry that you got a test back with low levels and will now have to wait till next year for the next cycle. i think that low test results are worse than a BFN as it is so hard to grieve and move on as just have to keep waiting for the test go back to zero
Dusty - - you go girl!
MissMagpie - sorry on the BFN but wishing you all the best for your next cycle.
WTH - signs sound positive...and we all over analyze!
To everyone else - wishing you a good weekend with no AF! Hope that you can all find something to smile about.
AFM - not much news. just making my belly black from my injections and feeling pretty tired with my skin extra sensitive and itchy - esp on my arms! got cramps but thats the progesterone it is way to early for anything else! At least the heparin means I get out of heavy labour on the farm for the weekend
Sorry for the me post, but it would seem like my BT was done too late in the day - I don't have any results yet. So it looks like I will have to wait until tomorrow, but the good news is still no AF! Stay away witch!
