LTTTC Two Week Wait - Oct/Nov 08

[Millymoo8]

KellyD - I am so sorry that you did not get the news you hoped for. It is hard just get lots of hugs from DH and fingers crossed for next time this is so painful for everyone.

Ruth - Hang in there. It is that halfway point where it starts to get you... so close yet it feels like months away.

Bel - I hope you get well soon and that you are suffering the pain of an eventual BFP or even two!!!

AFM - still waiting to do test tomorrow. Still no sign of AF, just a few twingy cramps. I thought this was supposed to be the two week wait not the two and a half week wait. I just hope tomorrow confrims one way or another.

Good luck to everyone else

Hi everyone...hoping to see some BFPs in here ! The TWW is tough...so hang in there everyone...I find acupuncture really good.

And thanks for the nice comments to me. I am taking one day at a time and dealing with it as best I can. It's hard to imagine being back in the TWW again right now...but I guess hopefully I will be soonish, once we've regrouped...and maybe we will have our forever baby soon.

Hi Everyone -

MillyMoo - good luck for your test tomorrow. Fingers crossed for a BFP.

Kelly D - so sorry to hear about your BT. It is such an emotional journey. I hope you can move on with a FET next cyle with your snowbubs. Take care of yourself.

Possums - I cried reading your post. I know that words can't help but take care of yourself.

JBM - good luck relaxing. I'm also constantly checking BB for tenderness (of which I have none) and everything other twitch as a I sign. I have googled the strangest things lately.

BDT -welcome back! Sorry to hear about your POAS. I wish this process was easier for everyone. Take care of yourself.

Kahlan - good luck with your FET today.

Murph01 - Crinone is evil and can produce spotting as a side effect. Check with your clinic to be sure.

Bel - thinking of you and sending lots of sticky vibes to you. Take care.

AFM - still feeling fine. No sore BB. Have had some wierd stomach pains but not sure if they are related to digestive issues or what, trying hard not to over analyze and run to google eveytime I feel something.

Sorry if I have missed anyone - lots of good thoughts and sticky vibes to everyone.

Take care everyone,
LNB

Thanks for your thoughts girls, DH was probably more disappointed than I was as we had 1 transferred this time with at least something and this time our 2 gave us nothing.

At least AF has already arrived, and boy is she painful. I'm now just waiting for my clinic to call me back to see if we can go ahead with another FET straight away. Hopefully we can, or else it will not be until January which is just too far away to consider.

Possums: I hope you are taking care of yourself. It is so sad to get a BFN after the TWW, but to be in your position must be so hard to understand. I hope your little angel is looking out for your future bubs and becomes their 'Guardian Angel'.

Millymoo: Looking out for you, hope you are doing o.k and that things are promising.

Everyone else: Thinking of you all

Hi All

Well I am officially out of the game. My HCG came back as 7 so BFN for me. I am actually OK. I was petrified I was going to have to have a d&C so it is actually a relief in a small way. My progesterone is still really high so it will probably be another wek before the AF from hell arrives but hey ho (gees this is one expensive AF!!!).

Small glimmer of hope is that I got a little further with this one so fingers crossed number 4 will be the one..... I have no frosties so i will probably be trying just before Christmas.

Good luck to everyone else still to go my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

[Baby Dreamtime]

Millymoo, I am so sorry, I know how this hurts. But sounds like you have a plan and are already looking forward. Will pray that the next cycle is a dream cycle for you with a BFP at the end, the best Christmas present ever. Take care. xx

[Possums]

Kelly and Millymoo- sorry this wasnt your turn. I hope you are OK, it can be so hard.

Good luck to everyone else in here...

also thanks again for your thoughts to me....I am home resting after my curette...looks like we can't resume IVF until start of Jan (due to waiting for natural period now, and the xmas closure of clinic etc), which seems a long time away

[JBM]

hi all.
Millymoo: next time, all we can do is keep moving forward. so sorry. hugs to you
lnb: count down to testing. nearly half way.
kelly: so sorry this wasn't the one, nast af, don't we hate her ? yes we do !!

afm: well i had acupuncture today and it went well, she said she thought it was going well and i am certainly in a good place at the moment mentally.
so i would be day 28 on tue which would have been when af would have been due so if no af by then then i'll be testing next wednesday the 29th, i just can't last any longer than that. i am officially not supposed to test until the 1st and that would be a 18 embie, why do you have to wait that long anyway ?!

chat to all soon, sending lots of & &
hoping to hear some BFP in here soon.

Hello lovely girls

Thanks fro your kind thoughts, I am feeling better now. Seeing the IVF doc next week to discuss the next step, however we have decided to try naturally in the meantime so that we feel like we are 'doing' something. Plus, you never know your luck in the big city! So may be back in the 2WW before too long

To Azzenrae, KellyD, Milliemoo and possums I'm sorry. Thinking of you.

Good luck to everyone else

[Kahlan]

Hey everyone,

I'm a 1st time IVFer and TWWer with a 6 day emby hopefully hatching and attaching as we speak! Who would have thought I could join a club?

Hi Murph, welcome. There is a thread on all the abbreviations... can't remember where it is but I am sure the mod can direct you with it.

Well, the results are in and as anticipated it was a BFN. Bit bummed but hopefully AF will show her ugly head in the next couple of days.

Oh Kelly, I am so sorry. I was off all day (DH wants me to relax) but I was very keen to find out your BT results. I like your positivity. After a number of years of TTC and 1 year of IVF I still cry every time I get a BFN. That goes for you to Milly

I'm on day 7 after my embryo transfer and today have light pink spotting (i guess it is). I'm taking crinone pessaries and applicators so I can't get a clear description. Is this the implantation spotting I hear about? I'm new at IVF but not at all new at TTC!

Murph, it really depends on what embie you had transfered, day 3 or day 5. It could be implantation or spotting caused by the crinone.

Possum, I am very saddened by your news, it must be heart breaking for you.

AFM: Had my transfer yesterday. The embie survived the thaw so we have 4 frosties left. I know I should not think about the next cycle but after one hard year, can't help preparing myself for the worse. I was suppose to have my transfer on Sunday but the clinic doesn't work on Sunday, so they thaw the embie on Monday morning... now that got me scared, wondering whether they had given the embie enough time to ensure that it would survive the thaw properly.... I am over working myself, ain't I?

Take care everyone... and good luck to us all, those on our TWW... Bring the BFP on!

Hi Everyone -

I'm sure there are more than 14 days in the TWW - how can time go so slowly in the TWW and fly by the rest of the time?

Ruth- hope you are doing okay and hanging in there

JBM - sticky vibes and baby dust for you

Bel - hope you are okay and out of hospital and at home taking care of yourself and embies. for a BFP for you

Yvette - hope you are okay, haven't seen you post in a while (or sorry if I missed it!)

Millymoo - sorry to hear your news. Sounds like you have a good plan. Take care of yourself.

Neptune - great to hear you are back with a plan. My girlfriend was on IVF for many many cycles, they took time off and BD and were pg that month .

BDT - how are you doing today? Thinking of you.

Kahlan - welcome to the TWW - sticky vibes for your new embie on board.

Sorry if I have forgotten anyone. Sending loads of sticky vibes and baby dust to everyone and that this is all our time for a BFP.

Take care,
LNB

Hi girls
Just lurking and thought id say hi and send some your way. JBM ill be keeping tuned next tuesday, good luck!!!
Hi BEl and minnie hope you are going to be joining me soon!!!!
Thinkin of you all and hope you get those BFP's for christmas

[Bloom]

Hi lovely ladies,

I agree with LNB that the TWW is definately longer than 14 days. A fortnight normally whizzed by! Well, I've got 1 week 2 days till I can test. I'm feeling some period like cramping at times but other than that no symptoms what so ever! Doh!

My new role is taking my mind off the TWW but in the pod next to me is a pregnant lady and she and her team talk about the coming baby ALL the time. Grrrrr.... It's like having a reminder every 30 mins - just in case you've let your mind drift onto work things - that's right you're in the TWW!

How is everyone else fairing?

[JBM]

well i am feeling pre af today. i've got pimpes on my neck and chest and this is a pre af sign. . i feel a litttle sad as i just don't feel pregnant. i've got 10 days til i am supposed to test but you all know i am only waiting a week if i get no af.
please please stay away af.

ruth: can't you move your workmates pod to another level or something, selfish woman !!. not long to go now.

everyone else. lots of sticky vibes for all

[Possums]

sending you all the best TWWers....good luck and positive vibes during this anxious time

[Baby Dreamtime]

Hi everyone, just writing to say my TWW is over, AF arrived this afternoon with a vengence. I am 12dpo so a little early, but here non the less. I will be dropping out for the next few months, trying to work out if I will start back with another stim cycle in the New Year, or live it up until then and then work on my diet for a few months and start back in April.

I hope with all my heart that, by the time I am back, each and everyone one of you has moved on to the LTTTC and pregnancy threads, and that I see no familiar faces here. I wish you all the luck in the world for your longed for BFP. Hugs x

[curlygirl]

hi everyone,

looks like some of us from the other thread are here!

how's everyone holding up with tww? i'm excited and worried at the same time. i'll be back to work tomorrow, hopefully it keeps my mind off this tww a bit.

i'm feeling tired and my lower abdomen started to cramp after the transfer yesterday. not too bad, but it's there. i have started pregnyl too. just wondering if all these discomfort is because of the injection? i hope this is normal...
