    Baby dreamtime - sorry to hear you're out. You've really been through a lot emotionally and physically in the past 12 months. Maybe that break will help get yourself back on track again. Stay well and enjoy having your body and your hormones back!

    Brooke - it looks like I'm the first on this thread to congratulate. I got goosegumps! What an amazing feeling after all you've been through. Excellent news. Take care of both of you.

    Do you know what caused the OHSS cos I was sposed to have booster of prog. but went accupuncture instead as a bit sick and bloated and doctors concerned.

    Curlygirl - I've made it to day 9 and it's the first day I've really felt okay since egg pickup so those pains and cramps stuck around and were constant but nothing I needed pain killers for. I guess everyone is different, but that's how it was for me. I'm 8 days more of an expert than you by the looks!

    Kahlan- re your qn about the age of my emby. My emby was just a young pup at transfer, 2 days old (3 cells with perfect cleavage apparently...must take after their dad!). anyway spotting only happened on day 7 so far and clinic nurse is hoping it's doing the right thing. So damn fragile tho, bit like me right now.

    To everyone else that i can't mention by name, it's a constant battering on every emotion going through all this. The worst is that you want to believe and hope, but then you have to prepare for reality and not let yourself fall too far or too hard. I really feel for all you girls that have been on this rollercoaster ride more than once and I hope to see good outcomes for everyone in here. Until then, it's fantastic to have this place to come and know I'm not alone.

    Take care everyone.

    Hi Chickees....I'm baaaack!!

    Scooby -ohhhhhh I so want to be there with you - thanks for thinking of me honey..so glad all is going well for you...wasn't so long ago we were here together huh?? (sadly I've been back a few times inbetween..)

    For those of you that know the lovely Bel - unfortunately she is still in hospital with OHSS. She's having a pretty bad time poor thing and it makes me sad. She is being a trooper though and trying to soldier on with a brave face. They are doing another POAS tomorrow as will be 8 days after transfer so fingers crossed my predictions are right!!

    Me - back in here yet again. I had a pretty disappointing EPU so am hoping the 2 surviving embies (2 day, 4 cell A grade) pull thru for me. The put them in early as were afraid I would have nothing left, if left to blastie I think.


    So to all of your in here (and give me a little time to catch up) best of luck ladies. I know how hard this struggle is only too well...

    Let's empty this thread with smiles on our faces..

    Hi Everyone -

    BDT - sorry to hear you are out. Take care and stay strong. Thinking of you.

    Brooke - YAY for you - congratulations - gives me hope that this process puts smiles on peoples faces.

    MinnieMouse - thanks for the update on Bel. Sending lots of sticky vibes to you.

    Ruth - hope you are surviving the crinone , lots of stick vibes

    JBM - stick vibes and no AF for you!

    Everyone else - sending good thoughts and sticky vibes to you.

    AFM - very confused at the moment. I had spotting a few times today, I am 10dpo and not sure what is going on as it is very small splotches. I have never had spotting before and don't know if it is the slow start of AF or what is going on. I am feeling a bit crampy but not like I normally do before AF. Waiting until morning to decide what to do.
    for no AF.

    Take care everyone,
    LNB

    LNB- I hope you are OK..the spotting could be implantation bleeding, and it all could be just fine...I hope that's the case.

    Congrats Brooke. I am thrilled for you.

    BDT - so sorry that this is not your month.

    Kahlan- re your qn about the age of my emby.

    Murph, in that case it could very well be implantation. I was told that implantation occur from day 6-10 post ovulation and for some women they might spot a little when implantation occurs.

    AFM - very confused at the moment. I had spotting a few times today, I am 10dpo and not sure what is going on as it is very small splotches.

    Hi LNB, same as my comment above, you might be experiencing implantation spotting.

    To everyone else, good luck to those who are still biting their nails waiting for the TWW to come a close and the good news to arrive.

    AFM, bb are starting to get sore but it has not enlarged as yet. Other than that there is no other sign.. just been sleeping very well which is great.

    Hi Everyone -

    Possums and Kahlan - thanks for your advice, I am hoping it is implantation spotting as AF has not arrived yet !

    Murph01, Ruth, Bel, Kahlan- hope you are doing well and sticky sticky sticky vibes for you all.

    Everyone else - sending lots of good thoughts to you.

    AFM - no AF today !!! Still cramping on and off and minor spotting, no more that yesterday. The nurse said today it is a bit late for implantation spotting but as long as there is no AF there is hope I'll be :for no AF.

    Take care everyone,
    LNB

    BDT- so sorry my friend, I really am. Am thinking of you and sending you a big hug.

    Lulu- My saviour..I'd be lost without you. You know how much you mean to me and I wish you the very best TWW with amazing news at the end. You deserve it so much.

    Ruth- How you going? Still cruising along well?

    AFM- Got my much longed for BFP today!!! Am so excited. Next step is to get out of this hospital, but in no rush. Am listening to my body and the little one or ones in me that are telling me to take it easy.

    Sending you all love and thanks for your support as always.

    Hugs Bel

    Bel, Congratulations!! Take it easy and get as much rest as possible.

    Good to hear people here fall pg one after another. Who's next?

    Murph01, how are you doing? hope the spotting is really because of implantation. The ugly bloating and cramping are still there, but not as bad as after EPU and ET. I feel it even lesser now that i'm back to work

    Sending good vibes to everyone...

    Just sticking my head in here because I well and truly qualify as a TWWer ... had my first day-5 blast transfer yesterday (seems like eons ago!). I'm was hoping that it would be a nice short TWW with 5 days of it happening IV but seems like it's going to last forever because my BT falls on a w'end and I'll have to wait to Monday for it!! I'm on crinone (and just one pregnyl jab day before ET), so I'm assuming that I should still be able to POAS because there'll only be progesterone in my system, no synthetic HCG??? Can anyone clarify that for me? Thanks in advance.

    Hey everyone,

    On-trak, yeah I though that crinone won't affect a BFP on a POAS test. So you can pee away to your heart's content!

    Curly girl - glad to hear you are starting to feel better. Hope work is keeping your mind off things.

    LNB - glad to hear that your full blown AF has held off. Maybe it was just a touch of break through bleeding???

    Congrats to Bel - hope you get better soon!

    AFM - less than 1 week to go now! I still think it's going to be a BFN and I want to test early to get it out of the way with but DH (aka the test Nazi) won't let me. No symptoms what so ever. : (

    Bel

    What wonderful news! I hope you recover well from your OHSS. Your numbers are great also... I wonder if it is one or two???? I am just so very happy for you.

    Ruth - when I got my BFP I had absolutely no symptoms at all before my BT. My symptoms did not kick in until I was 6 weeks 3 days along. So hang in there!

    Lots of to you all.

    Oh, I am so happy for you Bel... now I kinda wish I had OHSS too if it's going to mean a BFP... but yikes 11.5 kg... that's like 1/4 of my weight already!

    afm: i think it is a BFN for me as got more pimples and feel pre AF.
    hope i am wrong.
    JBM, actually a lot of pg women get pimples so that might very well be your pg signs!

    Morning all

    I had my IUI yesterday so am now in the TWW. The two longest weeks of any month!!

    I'm really really gonna try and hold out for the blood test on the 6th Nov. THAT FEELS LIKE FOREVER AWAY. But after the experience I had last month it seems like the thing to do. Getting 3 bfp's on the HPT's and then a bfn on the beta was horrible. Easier on the emotions to just get the one result.

    Good luck to everyone
