LTTTC Two Week Wait - November 08

Hi girls,

Mels - Im so sorry that AF arrived this morning. Was hoping we could both get some good news on Monday. Hang in there & look forward to your next transfer. Thanks for all your encouragement.

KellyD - Your spot on about Monday, is it here yet?!?!?! Hopefully your symptoms mean you are UTD!

Dusty - Thanks for your help. I hate not being in control so the wait is really getting to me. Work is a good distracttion so hope your TWW flies by for you! P.S. Go Pies!

Megsmum - Glad your feeling positive this time round. :crossfingers:

Carr2walk - Thanks for that.

AFM, had a fight with DP last night. The pressure and stress is getting to both of us. I thought AF was coming yesterday afternoon as I spotted some blood but nothing has eventuated as yet. :pray::pray::pray: she doesnt come. Feeling some slight cramping too

Lots of :hug: :bluedust: AND :noaf:

Tania :D

Mels - :hug: I'm so sorry. All the best for your next transfer, may it be the one.

KellyD - Peeing lots sounds really promising! That was my very first symptom with DD, although I didn't know it at the time. I could tell you a really funny story about a trip to Sydney but won't embarrass myself here ;) :crossfingers: for you! You are really close to me, I BT on Fri next week.

Tania - Sorry to hear about you and DP, hope you have made up now? This whole thing is just so stressful isn't it? :hug: Take it easy on yourselves hey? Hoping AF stays away for you!

hey guys i am still here, waiting, going crazy still. got 3 days til i test and 1 week to bt. got acupuncture friday, hope that'll relax me. sorry no personals, boys are escaping....

Aww Mels :hug: that sucks hun. I am really sorry it wasn't your month.

MissGothePies: poor you and DP, it really is a tense time and we take it out on those closest to us. Spotting and cramping can mean very good news too...

Megsmum: we sound like we are in a similar space right now with the postive calm thinking :D. I figure it is a better way of surviving this time. Damn pregnyl huh! Cross fingers that these symptoms continue for the next 2.5 months.

Kelly: Yep 1 would be great huh. Anything sticking would be wonderful. Hang in there.

JBM: Not too long to go. Acupuncture should help. I am having it tomorrow too. Yum!

xx

Mels, I'm so sorry that this wasn't your month :hug: I really do hope you get your wish soon!!

Megsmum, glad to read that you are feeling positive this cycle. I was a little the same, I had a feeling that it was going to work this month, and it turns out I was right. I really hope you'll follow with a bfp

Missmagpie, I hope you and your DP have patched things up now. This whole TTC rollercoaster is very stressful, but I like to think that it's made me and DH a little closer (although we had some screaming matches from time to time).

Kelly, I found I was going to the loo a lot more in the week or so before my bfp, so hopefully this is a good sign for you!!

Dusty, hope your bublets are snuggling in nicely, and your cramping has subsided

JBM, :crossfingers: for your test on the weekend

c2w, hope your levels today are nice and high! I don't really know my EDD yet, but sometime toward the end of July 09. My clinic hasn't told me anything yet, I think they might wait until the 7 week scan. I have my bt in the morning to check my levels are good.

AFM, I'm still sick as a dog with this cold/flu. Thankfully my throat has stopped hurting now, but I have absolutely no energy, and I've almost coughed up my lung today. I had yesterday and today off work, and I'll probably stay home tomorrow too as I want to rest as much as I can!!

:hug: to anyone I've missed, :bluedust::pink-babydust: for all!!

Alloy - Hope you are feeling a bit better today, good idea having the time off work, make sure you take it easy. GL for the BT today :)

Dusty - Sounds like it to me too! I sooo hope it works for us. I suppose ultimately we can't change the outcome either way so there is no point worrying about it too much. Yeah the Pregnyl just messes with your mind doesn't it? LOL Hope you are doing well today!

JBM - Hope you enjoy the acu and that it relaxes you a bit :)

AFM, well I think my DH is more edgy about this than me :o He asked me last night if there was any way we could find out earlier than next Fri! Maybe I might be able to POAS a day before my BT?! And he's always been so 'just wait it out' too, there's a turn around for you.

Hi Ladies

Hope everyone is doing well today.

I'm so confused at the moment :wall:, this is the worst I have felt from all of my ET's. My Symptoms so far that have hit with a vengance are:
Tired & Emotional (could cry at the drop of a hat at the moment)
Increased Body Temp (I am soo hot at the moment & sweating buckets even though it is quite cool in Melb at the moment)
Queasy Stomach (the smell of food turns my stomach)
Plus the extra loo breaks yesterday
Still a sore lower back and tender BB's and last night didn't sleep properly as I normally sleep on my stomach, but it was to uncomfortable.

Still have 6 days til the BT, but think I might start POAS on Sunday to see if there is anything. If it is not that then it must be all these drugs really kickign in. I'm on 6mg of Progynova & the progesterone pessaries, but it's been more than a week since I've been taking all these so you would think I'd be used to them now.......

Kelly: Its normal to go slightly crazy around this time (or anytime in teh TWW). Good luck for your HPT on Sunday but don't forget that it aint over until the BT and then it hopefully wont be over for you but just the start :hug:

Megsmum: Slightly OT but love your avvy's bird. There is something quite magestic and confident about it. Do you have birds? Hope you are remaining optimistic if possible.

Alloy: Not a great time to be feeling a cold when you want to be celebrating hey. Hope you are feeling much better today.

:stickyvibesgirl: and :bluedust: to all

AFM: I am a slacker and doing pretty much nothing all day. Had AP then a lovely brekky at a favourite cafe of mine. Watching DVDs and eating yummy organic food. I could have gone into work but as it is my RDO I thought why bother and why not enjoy being free. Feeling calm but slightly potty as the TWW seems to drag on. Half way through is always the worst and today is day 6 of an 11 day wait. On the downward slope now, hope it will go faster than the upside....

Good afternoon girls,

How you are all doing well!

Megsmum - DP and I have "sort of" made up. Had another screaming match last night which isnt good. I am just so emotional at the moment. I agree with your DH, finding out before the BT as the wait is agonising!

JBM - Hope your acupuncture went well today. I can TOTALLY relate to the going crazy bit!!!

Dusty - I hope its a good sign. Hope your doing well

Alloy - I have found the whole process very challenging & hard to cope with. Glad Im not the only one who has screaming matches! Hope your feeling better soon :D

KellyD - Those symptoms sound like your UTD! Im not on the same meds so cant comment on their side affects. Hope you get a BFP when you test on Sunday :D

AFM, Have been very emotional the last few days. Feeling a bit more relaxed but anxious today. AF is due today but there is NO sign of her! Im been doing LOTS of :pray::pray::pray: PLEASE :noaf: If nothing happens between now and when I finish work at 6pm, am going to buy a HPT and do it tomorrow morning. My BT is at 8am on Monday. Am trying to stay calm but its VERY hard.

Hope you all have a good weekend.

Tania :D

Tania - Glad to hear you have sort of made up :) I know how you feel, DH and I had some bad ones when it started to emerge that we would need to go to IVF. Yay for no AF though! Hope the witch stays away for you!! GL for Monday.

Dusty - Not doing too bad, wavering a little occasionally but mostly OK :) Sounds like a lovely day :) just what you need in the TWW. I hear you about the downward slope, here's hoping it goes quick! And yes, I do have birds, 2 of them in fact :) They are Blue Princess Parrots and they are hand reared and very very spoiled!! I have had them since they were babies and they are 7 and 10 years old now. I love the parrot in my avi, the shape of it is sooo close to the shape of mine and the colours are not quite the same as my parrots, but pretty close - they are grey in the body, bright blue on the wings and have a white throat. They are lovely looking parrots, really slender and graceful when they fly with a very long tail, especially my little boy. His tail is about 20cm long. Can you tell I love parrots?! LOL When Kathryn did the avi I just said I wanted a parrot flying in the background and she outdid herself - I love it! I am hoping I might be able to change the colours of the parrot sometime soon when I update to a preg avi :pray:

Kelly - Sounds really really promising to me! Don't drive yourself too nuts with the HPTs though hey? Dusty is right :)

Have a lovely weekend everyone, don't go too mad with the waiting!!

hi all.
have been lurking on this thread watching everone's progress.
am about to go into fs for my embryo transfer. my bt is for dec 1 so not sure if i qualify for nov tww but i'm claiming it.
lucky i've only got to wait 9 days. this is my first. extremely anxious.
:pray::pray::pray::pray:

:pink-babydust::pink-babydust::bluedust::bluedust:

Ladies - may I please join you?

and... :cheer: "Hello" to my dear buddy, MegsMum. I can't believe I made it here! :cheer:

:happyforyou: wooohooo!!! Have been waiting and hoping that you would make it here! ;) :cheer: again!

Hayley - my BT is also December 1. Good luck with your transfer today :D

MegsMum - thanks!

BTW - does anyone have any suggestions they might be able to share for implantation of the embryo? It has been suggested to me to eat warm nourishing foods (nothing cold or raw). Did accupuncture last night, too. I do not know if I should be kicking back or walking about to get the blood circulating. Would be greatful to hear anything some of you may have tried.

:stickyvibesgirl::stickyvibesboy:

- Miss Magpie BT
27/11 - Kelly D BT
28/11 - Dusty BT
GOOD LUCK ALL :pray:

AFM- had transfer yesterday and been jumpiing to conclusions like a lemming off a cliff. Have decided that as i've never actually been preggers i should stop over-thinking everything, be positive and be ready to accept any outcome. Very philosophical of me... just need to convice brain that is the case!

tmi warning - have a question. am on crinone but am not having the issue of 'cottage cheese' at all. should i be? in fact there's nothing? should i be worried? have other side effects so know its working but was concerned there should be some discharge???? sorry tmi.

apolgies for very long post. :pray: for everyone.
