thanks so much for all your kind thoughts
i'll admit i've been having a miserable, mopey day - AF is very painful to the point of doubling over in pain several times, so have had a jim jam day with the hot pack! the cold that was threatening to kick in for over a week has hit me very hard today, so it's been me, the heater, my blankie - and a big box of tissues today!
just waiting to find out what is next i guess - it's out of my hands, so i refuse to stress about it too much!
Hi girls, have never posted in the tww thread before but am currently in my tww following first round of chlomid. Got BT results last week - all positive so now just waiting. Have had itchy/sore boobs since last sat which is highly unusual for me, and also a lot of CM which is bizarre for me at this stage in my cycle. Trying my hardest not to think too much into it. Did a hpt yesterday but was -ve, but honestly not sure where in my cycle I am as didn't use opks this month.
Nat & Lyn - congrats on your fabulous news!! Always love reading that someone got their BFP!
Missy & BG - so sorry that the horrible witch visited you both this month. Sending lots of love and baby dust your way.
Karena - good luck for the 7th! Have everything crossed for you!
And all the other girls I have forgotten, wishing you a speedy tww with a great result at the end. I know I am hoping desperately for the same!
Just wanted to pop in and say good luck to you all in the TWW. I hope there will be some good news soon.
Hi dr breee,
My test also came back at 18 on the first test (day 14) and the following week my test results came back at 96 in which it should be 900 HCG - l'm concerned that it may be an etopic pregnancy - reasons why its not rising that way it should - having another test next friday - fingers crossed it rises again ! Hope everything goes well for you too ! sending you best wishes
Hi ladies,
I've been having vivid dreams for a few nights now and some of them are pregnancy related. I have been extremely thirsty but I still have a cold so that could explain that. Had a few abdo twinges last night and my FF chart shows a dip that goes just under coverline and then raised back up today to the highest level it was after O. Have had 3 days of being sensitive to smell even though I am blocked up... if that makes any sense.
Hi Babyface I really hope its not ectopic. Not all pg HCG levels rise fast. Although my ectopic was rising slow and then fast. I wish you heaps of luck and :pray: that all is ok.
staya good luck and I hope your sence of smell is beaucse your pg.
And for all you ladies in TWW keep your chin up and stay pos. Good luck!!
babyface - I am hoping that everything is ok. Good luck with the next test :pray:
Satya - they are good signs. I was having very weird dreams the week before I found out. I was also very thirsty and had to get up in the middle of the night to go to the loo. Fingers crossed that these are good pg signs :crossfingers:
Thinking of everyone else in the TWW :hug:
Hi all,
Just dropping in to let you know my BT results came in today - they were positive! HCG levels around 1300 - she said that was quite high (maybe twins on the way)...
Congrats to all who have had success in this cycle - and my heartfelt wishes and positive vibes to those who are still waiting/trying.
Take care of yourselves and stay positive. Following these discussions has really made me appreciate even more so, what a miracle this is.
K.
Congratulations Kimy. :happyforyou:That is wonderful news hun. Awwww I hope the next 8 months goes fast for you:dance:. YAY for you:)
Thanks Missy - and I wish you all the luck in the world with your next cycle.
K.
I guess now I can officially join you for real!
We got to transfer an amazing little hatching blastie today - my FS was very impressed!
So I guess the obsession begins... would cramp-type pains a couple of hours after transfer be from the transfer process, the crinone I had to use last night (thankfully only one dose! I can't imagine two weeks of the stuff!), implantation, or all in my head?
BW
Kimberley that is brilliant news! CONGRATULATIONS!!! (wish I knew how to do all the bouncy, happy faces! :)
Babyface, good luck with your pg. Its scary to think that it may be an ectopic :( I know a little bit about how you might be feeling. My blood test yesterday revealed that my pg had slipped away completely, which was sad (for obvious reasons) and a relief (because it meant wasnt ectopic). AF finished yesterday, so its nice now to sort of have a few weeks 'off'. We will have a day 2 FSH done next cycle, and if it is high we will try for a FT (assuming I ovulate). If its low, we will commence another collection cycle.
I hope everything is Ok for your next results...these are stressful times.
Good luck to all :)
kimberley - CONGRATULATION to you and your partner. enjoy every minute of it bad or good its a blessing to experience this.
BW - great stuff hun. I wish you a good two weeks. you are just one day behind me so will be going through this together. So far this is day 4 of crinone and the only sid efects i have is light AF cramping, hope yours are not too bad.
I too have been haveing some funcky vivid dreams relating to babies and preg bellies. Since EPU bad sleeps every night.
talk to you soon.
BW I dont think it would be implantation yet. I think Blasties take 1 -2 days to implant, but hey you just never know. I wish you heaps of luck and :stickyvibesgirl::bluedust: and hope this is the only time you will need TWW thread. Good luck.
drbeee Im sorry that your pg didnt happen.:( I wish you lots of luck in your upcoming TTC. Good luck!!!
I had the bad dreams too. I think mine was from the Crinone cream. good luck to you all!!!!
Kimberley - congratulations :confetti: that is fantastic news. Wishing you a healthy pg. Take care :hug:
BW - good luck with the transfer. I have everything crossed for you that this is your month. I hope the next 2 weeks go very fast for you.
drbeee - I'm sorry that your pg slipped away. Thinking of you :hugs: Wishing you all the best on your TTC journey.
Sending you all heaps and heaps of :bluedust:
That's the beautiful thing about blastocyst transfers... there's only 9 days of the TWW left by the time you begin it for real! I think I can do this without going nuts... what's 9 days?!
BW
Good thinking BW. 9 days will goes fast. Well I hope it does for you. Good luck!!
Hello ladies,
I hope you don't mind me butting in...
Congratulations Kimberley and Lyn for your BFP, hope you both have a H&H pregnancy!!!
BW, glad all went well for your transfer, Balsties, how exciting!
You are one day before me, 2 hours to go for my 1FET transfer at 330pm, a bit nervous actually even more so than 1st time...I guess that's the down side of taking the day off, no distractions. We will be TWW buddies...hope this is a good month for us! I like your 9-days theory, hope that somehow will work wonders!
laters!
Are you have a blastie transferred too, BeiBei?
It's nice to know that there's someone running along at pretty much the same time as me... hopefully we can compare notes along the way! Good luck!
BW
Mission accomplished. Transfer all went well...now, let's hope it will stick and blossom...:pray:
Yes, BW, mine was a blastie as well. So we are very close on the dates and we can certainly 'compare our obssessive imaginary symptoms' notes in the coming days...my b/t is on 19th June. When is yours?
13th of June - way earlier than yours! I think I'd go nuts if they made me wait until the 18th... the only thing that worries me is that the 13th is the day AF is due - so it could be a complete surprise to me either way.
BW
Oh, sorry, a little typo, its 16th, Saturday week...yeah, I would go nuts too if it is 19th...:p
Yours is next Wed, not far away at all...fingers crossed for us that AF stays away...
ok, that's not so bad! Good luck!
BW
Hi BW and Beibei and the rest of the 2Wwaiter. I am due to be tested on 14th, got my blastie transferred on Sunday so it will be nice to see what symptoms we have and share them with one another. Have you girls got the cottage cheese effect from the crinion gel yet???? I just got it this morning, pretty yuck.
For the first time ever I actually feel pretty normal except for the sore boobies but that I believe is from the gel, I have no other syptoms, actually If I was not awake at the transfer I would have no idea of what is in me, I sort of feel detached. Anyone else feel like this? I feel as though I should be feeling something, I am on day 8 post ovulation day 3 after transfer.
looking forward to reading how everyone else is going.
Ltl Panda, you're a day ahead of me! I'm sandwiched! I'm actually relieved to find more people at the same time as me. A bit weird that my transfer was after yours, but my blood test comes up first... I guess that's because I had a day 5 transfer, not a day 3.
I only had one dose of crinone the night before transfer - I'm on a natural FET cycle. As if you can really think of it being natural when I have to take drugs for OI!
I felt amazingly calm after transfer - I kept thinking to myself that I should feel different because there's an embryo inside me... but I didn't.
Today I'm feeling different... the spotting from transfer stopped yesterday morning, but I have more today. Some cramping late yesterday and this morning I feel like puking. Probably from being anxious about the spotting, even though I'm trying not to think about it. Or I could be catching DH's tummy bug...
BW
I had a 5 day blast but maybe because yours was a hatching blast meant that implantation was happening sooner. I have no spotting but I too am feeling very nervous and in turn its making me feel yuck in the tummy.
For those who can ansuer, are implantation bleeds a must. I am panicking, I feel nothing and feel as though on day 8 I should be feeling something....
Oops! I misread. :redface: I'm convinced that I should feel more... and then I'm also convinced that what I am feeling is all in my head...
Ltl Panda, I've heard so many stories of women not finding out they are pegnant until they are something like 8-12 weeks, and in some ways I'm a little disappointed that sort of thing is denied us undergoing assissted conception. How great would it be to bypass all the stress of the first trimester without knowing about it? Rather than having to worry from day one...
Anyway, I'm *sure* it's possible to be pregnant and feel absolutely nothing different at all...
BW
Hi girls,
I come in here often to check up on you all and hope to read more BFP. I was in this thread up until last week, so I hope that you 2ww flies by.
I just wanted to give you girls some hope. Someone told me I am pg but I don't feel any different. I am hoping for some m/s or sore boobs just so I can feel pg. So girls if you feel nothing, it doesn't mean that nothing is happening.:
I'm *sure* it's possible to be pregnant and feel absolutely nothing different at all...
Take care, wishing you all the very best :hug:
Hi Ltl Panda, anther blastie buddy..great... to re-assure you that you are not alone, I feel absolutely nothing at all. have transfered a blastie yesterday and apart from a bit sore lower back from being so tense during and after I feel completely normal...ah...don't know that' a good thing or not...I did read somewhere that implantation bleeding is not neccessarily happening to everyone, actually only to a minority like 25-30% or sth (but don't quote me)...
BW, hope the cramp has gone and the spotting is implantation bleeding...
How nice would it be to put our mind to rest...
Yes... only a week to go, but I think it's going to be the longest week of my life!
BW
I know what you mean BW...I can't believe its only my day 1 post transfer...ahhhhhh
On a completely seperate note, My ex-colleague just sent me an email inviting me to catch up with her and other two ladies...to show her growing belly, that is... I think she is 4 months now...she knows Im trying and she had a bit difficult time herself and now she obviously is on the side of the world...I feel a bit resentful at first because twice she emailed me after I left, first to let me know she is pregnant now inviting me to see her popping belly..then I thought maybe I will go apart from catching up with other guys and be happy for her pregnancy, I do want to show this is not bothering me that much... what do you think?
BeiBei, do what you need to do in order to keep yourself balanced. Don't force yourself to go if you really don't want to. If you do decide to go and find you don't cope - leave. You need to put yourself at first priority now!
BW
Hi Beibei
just before my EPU my 21 year old sister told me she was pregnant, unplanned. She is having problems with her husband and was threatening leaving him, she got pregnant while they made up. I congratulated her and apologised for my lack of happiness. I walked out and started to hyperventilate and than broke down in tears. I cried for 2 whole days. I emailed her the next day on how I felt and how sad I was. She really upset me as she knew what my husband and I were going through and that it was my only dream being the eldest to have the first born in the family. I also told her that I knew it was not an accident as she apparently has been begging her husband for a baby but he was not ready. I am only 25 and I was not asking her to hold for too long, I had a lot of anger and was very disappointment with her. Over the week though I got over it, It has happened, she was blessed with a bubz and I have to respect the precious thing in her. I called her last night and requested to have a coffee and to mend our broken hearts.
Its very hard for us TTC buddies, but I think its harder for then to give us what is suppose to be their happiest news. Beibei, I am sure as your conversations progress, you will want to know everything that she is experiencing, it will give you positive vibes.
Thanks BW and Ltl Panda to offer your advice and experience...I am the only child in the family, so I guess I don't have that kind of pressure, but there is definately pressure in different form, you can guess what...oh, well, sometimes we just have to deal with what life throw at us...I never have thought that I would have problem of conceving...
I am glad you are taking the initiative to make up with your sister...hope soon you will be catching up and be pregnant together...and this month could be it!
I will sort this out in the meantime I think...I guess I just like to vent to your guys and thanks for listening...:)
Hi girls,
Hope you don't mind me joining in but was just reading about your issues with others who you are close to falling pregnant around u. I too have this difficulty. Only two days ago a good friend of mine from work told me that she is now 9 weeks pregnant. She has been trying to fall pregnant with her 2nd for approximately 7 months and I was just hoping...just hoping...that for once someone that I know who is TTC would also have difficulties. That sounds really awful doesn't it? Anyways...when I found out I was so very very happy for her and was jumping around with her in the girls toilet but then every time I thought about it afterwards I felt sick to the pit of my stomach. I hate the fact that my experience is tainting the way I feel about other people and this miracle that has just happened for them. Am I making sense?
What I'm really trying to say BeiBei and as Ltl Panda has also given an example of also is that there is NOTHING wrong with the way you are feeling...it is only natural when you are going through something like this.
Take care
Hi Rara and welcome
It is hard, it is very hard. But we need to think that it will happen to us to.
Hi Ladies, I have been away for a couple of days so just catching up on news.
Big congrats to Kimberley! That is fantastic news!!!
Not sure if I've missed a post from Karena? Any update from BT today?
Wishing you all the best - looking forward to reading about some more BFP's soon!
Nat
Hi Girls
just seeing how everyone is going.
Not sore if its the gel, but my (.)(.) are so sore, it hurts to touch, for those using the gel, are you experiencing the same thing?
I have to other syptoms though, other than mild constant AF feeling, but I had that the moment I started the gel.
well, I hope everyone is ok.
I have painfully sore boobs, but I'm not on crinone.
I'm having a natural FET cycle, so no luteal phase support for me. But my boobs - ouch! They were so bad last night I just wanted to sit and cry. I wake up not feeling too bad and they get worse and worse during the day.
Sorry I'm not much help, Ltl Panda!
BW
the sore boobies sounds promising BW!!!!!!!!
