theresep - I'm soo soo sorry, i'm not in the 2ww(it's coming up), but I had to offer a cyber hug ( ). Your DH sounds like mine, a very sensitive, loving partner. That means, he thought long and hard and clearly made the right decision to get back with you and marry you.
I've also had AF arrive just before BT, it's a ***t I know. Take care, and I hope your and DH's dream comes true very soon.
Hi ladies been really busy at work today which is not really a bad thing cause it keeps my mind off the 2WW. 7 days to go now and starting to feel a bit crazy had a really weird day yesterday started off with really low cramps on the left side the last night just as we sat down for dinner starting to get stabbing pains in my back..what's that all about is all I kept thinking.
So glad to hear that some of us have had some good news and my thoughts go out to those who are feeling down.
Theresep try to stay positive you never know you might be one of the ones that gets a AF even with a postivie
Theresep - I am so sorry to hear about the arrival of AF. These things never get any easier. My DH and I had a bit of a break before getting back together. I actually know quiet a few other couples who have done the same. I think it can help to put your thoughts and feelings into perspective..... Also, I have read that more positive pregnancies are achieved via FET than as part of the stim. I notice that you have had a previous little angel from a FET. that once you body has had time to recover you will get another little miracle and your & DH's dreams come true.
Lise - congratulations on your BFP. You must be so excited to finally achieved your dream. Wishing you a happy & healthy pregnancy. It offers a beacon of hope that we will all get there one day (hopefully soon) with a little perseverance!
LondonMiss - I have been feeling a bit fat this week.... it is so hard to worry about your diet on top of everything else with IVF & TTC. I keep telling my self not to worry if I get pregnant I will only get fatter . Glad to here about your lovely follicles and all the best for your IUI.
SonjaLouise - Glad to hear that your bleeding has stopped. that will be the last of it and it was only implantation bleeding.
Murrycod - good luck in your TWW. I hope it passed quickly and doesn't drive you too crazy. Re your below question - at EPU most people are fully sedated (I had this) and don?t remember the collection, although I have heard of a couple of clinics that use a lighter sedation. In the latter you are awake but you are still pretty out of it.
Terry - Good luck as you count down to your BT. Being bust at work is always good, as you say helps keep you nice and distracted.
AFM - Thank you all for your lovely wishes. I am feeling a bit better day, although still no strong signs either way. I am having a few tweaks and twinges but no strong cramping or anything like when I had my chemical pregnancy... (not sure if that is a good or a bad sign). TMI warning.... I am also having a wet felling down below. I keep thinking it's AF but when I go to toilet it's clear. Not sure what that's all about
Theresep- I am so sorry for your news, there is still a slight chance but by the same token you do need to prepare yourself. I understand completely about being with your husband without kids. DH and I have had many conversations and we know we would have to change our lives quite a bit to cope with it. We have been with each other 14 years and before marrying we also had a bit of a break. We have built our life expecting kids and the thought that we wont have them is very depressing. I have already looked into adoption, but they wont let you move forward in the process until you have stopped fertility treatments for 6 months.
Your DH obviously made the decision that he loved you enough to be with you without kids.
Something my FS said to me was it is a numbers game, you need to look at it as a long term project. Someone who had 9 misscarriages carried her tenth all the way through. I know someone at work who was on treatments for eight years before falling pregnant, she now has three kids. Goodness knows where they found the strength to back time after time, I don't know if I could do it.
Mitf- I have had a similar feeling down below, even after I stopped bleeding. I have no idea why.
Terry- Hopefully your embie is digging in and making a nice little nest for itself.
AFM- Still cramping, still slight nausea, still headachy. One more sleep to go.........
I am just hoping that it is not AF trying to fight through the crinone.
SonjaLousie - glad to here the bleeding has managed to stay at bay.
Has anyone been feeling really thirsty lately? I have and can seem to quench my thirst, not sure if I am dehydrated or it's just because it warmer.... I had wondered if all the extra progesterone in my system might be doing it???
Dear girls, thanks so much for all the kind words and understanding how i'm feeling today.
Sonialouise, you hit the nail right on the head when talking about you + your DH - i thought it was only me that had that situation - its incredible when you confide with others, how often they also have experienced something similar. I have told my DH that i didn't marry him just to have children, that there are a million reasons why i chose to be with him, and you just never will know of the challenges that life throws at you - you just have to cross each bridge when you get to it, and hope that you're strong enough to support each other. Mitf - thats interesting to hear that more positives are achieved with a FET - seems to be the case with my own experiences hey? Thanks for your well wishes, xx
Thanks for your cyber hug Airline xx
Well, i still have 4 little darlings on ice, which is some consolation. We are ready for a small break from ttc now - got to get our regular sex life back on track ! Sorry, no one probably needs to know that! But seriously, ttc has consumed us for most of this year, so it won't be until well into next year that we consider a FET. As i'm in regional NSW, the next Syd IVF clinic won't be until next March, and we are going to New Zealand then for a wedding - but i'm actually looking forward to the break, and you never know when a natural surprise may catch you when you're least expecting.
I will be checking in to see how you are all going, and crossing everything that we have some BFP's to celebrate!
Just a little me post cause I think I need to vent. I gave in and took a test this morning and it was negative. Which I half expected. The thing is all day I have been nauseas and cramping, so I took another one when I got home (I know I know it is not the first morning pee) negative again. I have got progressively worse now I have stabbing pains around the front and just vomited!
Everything in my body is telling me I am pregnant, but I just keep getting BFN. I know blood test is tomorrow but I am going insane, the burping is driving me nuts.
I wonder if it is all in my head, or what they call a phantom pregnancy. Surely I should have got a positive pee test. Or is it all because of the crinone???
Theresp- I just wanted to say that DH are going to do the same thing. If it is negative we are going to have a break until next year. By the way did you get a chance to speak to him yet?
