mitf - Congratulations on your BFP!!! Very happy for you. Hopefully I will be able to join you soon enough. Great numbers too. Sounds like a strong pregnancy.
London miss you are so brave giving yourself the needles I get DH to do them.
I had a great sleep last night no AF sysmptoms today so I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed that I cant make it to Friday and my BT..the waiting is driving me crazy and so are the nightly pressaries
Mitf ~ excellent news hun All the very best for a H&H 9 months! So guys!
AFM ~ I havent come in here this TWW. Natural cycle again and AF usually arrives about CD35 but still hasnt and Im up to CD38, Ive had tummy cramps but just no AF, its all driving me mad. I'll have to do a test soon I think.
[QUOTE=LondonMiss;2027017]Airline - I completely agree! There are somethings that aren't meant to levered open. Although it could be worse, do you remember the old metal ones? They were always cold. I always thought they looked like the scoops you got mashed potato in at primary school/ a gulag!
Please permit a short vent - just did my pregnyl. Stupidly did it just after a shower and must have had slightly slippery hands, the top shattered, I've got bits in my thumb and finger, blood everywhere, then couldn't get the second one open because my fingers were still wet this time with blood.
Londonmiss, my FS still uses the METAL ONES...............give you a hint!?!?!?
OUCH....
Oh and the Pregnyl vile....I did the same last month and had to be so careful not to get any glass in the syringe....my thumb bled and bled.
this is a completely random post...but actually something that I've been meaning to post for ages. Only cos it made me and DH smile when we've discussed it.
You know all these t-shirts with slogans on them that are so popular, well I had a couple of ideas...but they would only make sense to those in the know about IVF.
My girlfriend had a maternity one that said, "It started with a Kiss"
Mine will say, "It started with Downregulation"
or
"Outfit $100
Hair/Nails $70
Bun in Oven $2000 OOP"
In fact I've just googled and found these!
"My parents did IVF
Now all they can afford
Is this lousy shirt"
"Frosty Baby"
gotta make you smile.
just had call from clinic saying although 9 eggs taken, 6 fertilising, 1 transfer and lost all the rest.
Airline - six sounds good to me - but I'm only a junior IUIer rather than an IVFer.. I know you'll want to punch me if I say it only takes one, but....
Love your t-shirt idea. "I owe everything to Puregon" will be one I get if I get UTD
"Desperately seeking Blastocysts" will the name of a book I write if I ever get round to it...
Airline Londonmiss is right 6 is a great number to have stored...apart from it only taking one just think you wont have to go through all the injections etc and even if this one isn't successful the natural cycle is so much easier.
I had 20 taken and of those only 7 made it so I was disappointed too the first ET didn't work but this last one I think and pray is doing great..so that leaves 5...just wanted to ask has anyone had any twinges really close to their BT date...it doesn't feel like normal AF sympstoms and it doesn't hurt it's just like a mild pulling every now and then....I feel like I'm going crazy and wishing the days away till Friday
Hey I'm becomming desperate today, and I'm in desperate need of wanting to feel 'Different'.....UTD
1 week benchmark today and all I feel is cramping same as I do when I have AF. They are completely the same...........
I wan't sore boobs, I wan't to feel nauseated, something, other than cramping.
I always get like this at 1week...........and this is what worries me, that it hasn't worked again. My last try B/F IVF.
Sorry having a stress day girls, need to let it out
Any positive stories anyone? Am I meant to feel anything at all only being 1 week??
Perhaps I will think of some T-Shirt slogan ideas to keep my mind from torturing me X
Hope everyone is doing better at this TWWing than I am today XX
Sorry luv's X
oops sorry girls....my disappointment meant I didn't write clearly.
I had 9 eggs at EPU, then out of those 6 fertilised. 1 was good enough to transfer, lost the other 5 embryos so no frozen this cycle. I got 2 frozen and 1 transferred during both my first and second stim cycles. This cycle was much, much harder on me than the first 2 with more gonal F .... but worst result.
Londonmiss - liked your slogan, but wondered if Synarel / Puregon are copyrighted?
I wouldn't punch you LM!! not even a cyberpunch!! (we should have a smileyface doing a cyberpunch created!)....but that magic 'one' has been elusive for a few years now, and I've got a whole bleedin' detective team onto him/her!!!
Murraycod - I don't have any +ve stories, but keep analysing and hoping and praying and yes, think up some t-shirt slogans to help pass the time.
I also like "my first photo" and it's a photo of a blasty :-)

Loops - imminent?
Terry 30th Oct
Airline 5th Nov
MurrayCod 8 days to go - which makes it the 4th I think??
Me 10th Nov (which is four million light years away)
Anyone else care to add into the mixture - don't you find it wierd that there's 20 or so people on any one thread and yet 10000 people have read it or something? I look occaisionally and don't post so who else are they? I'm fascinated.
Hi London Miss,
I'm here lurking! My transfer is tomorrow, but still not sure about posting. I took it so hard with my last BFN that I'm searching for self preservation.
I think there are probably lots of people lurking around, just like me
BTW- even though I haven't had transfer yet, my BT is booked for the 10th as well!!
LondonMiss, I confess that i'm still lurking to see how everyone is going
To the girls with cramping in the 2WW - I was convinced that AF was about to turn up from one week after the ET. Cramping, cramping and more cramping. Turns out it wasn't AF at all, so am assuming it was implantation cramping. Anyway, I just wanted to say don't let it put you off, you never know what could happen...!
Hope everyone is staying sane, have fingers and toes crossed for more BFPs this month, I think we all well deserve it!!
I had ET today, one little 7cell 3 day embie so I guess that offically puts me in the TWW. So hope you dont mind if I come over here & obsess with you all for a while
Tracy - I think it's a requirement of the TWW to end up with OCD. I'm certainly getting there. My current obsession *TMI warning* is that I think my wee smells wierd, and there's no way it can given I'm drinking about 155 litres water per day
MC - I'm not feeling anything either, even with the pregnyl. Although I should tell you that when I was actually pregnant for a short time, my husband with a hangover had more classic UTD symptoms that me... so don't worry too much!
Who was it who I was chatting to about knitting as a way of making time pass in the TWW? (brain like sieve). Anyway, I've finished my second scarf!!! Lucky it's for a toddler who won't notice all the holes
Anyway, good night ladies and sweet baby shaped dreams xx
