Hi all. Just subscribing to the new thread.
I hope everyone is doing well. I've been trying to keep up but boy these threads move fast. Sorry for not posting for a few days. Been down for the count with pharyngitis :wall:
Hasn't really helped me much in my tww, more days to sit at home off work contemplating if my little embie is still there.
Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone, especially nothing2lose!! Good luck!
Take care
Just subscribing, hope all is well.

Just subbing...good luck girls xxx
N2L? How are you? AF is due today, DF's bday, I hope that line got a lot darker overnight.
Nope, not darker :(
I think it may be marginally lighter :dunno: I hate HPTs :(
Beginning to think I may be on my way out. No real symptoms. So ridiculously bloated DP is calling me Bloat from Nemo (I have put on 4kgs this week!! :o ). Feeling a little crampy this morning :(
How are you going?
I'm honestly confused. The scientist in me thinks there shouldn't be a line at all. Are you still using FRER? My FRER's are about the same as the control line with 100 hcg. I'm so sorry if you are on the way out :( I was almost sure that this was YOUR month, you were gunna get your baby. If that doesn't happen after such a build up then the world is effed (well, we already know it is, right?). AFM, didn't bother testing today, 11 dpo, I'll test tomorrow but my body knows it isn't pregnant so I am not too tied up in the "is it, isn't it" end of TWW insanity.
Yep. Still FRERs. I have a clear blue digital here. Might try that...
Today is CD 30, 12dp2dt, 14dpo and it was 156 hours since my last 1500iu pregnyl jab when I tested.
Might try posting pics when DP goes to golf!
Question: can you get AF when you have HCG in your system?
Subbing too...
I hope you lovely ladies are doing OK. Oh the torture of the TWW!!!
I have fingers and toes crossed for you.
Maruschke - don't count yourself out just yet, it is still quite early:goodluck:
N2L - 2 more sleeps...:goodluck:
:hello: to everyone else.
I don't think so. There is a feedback loop between HCG and progesterone. When the corpus luteum detects HCG, it produces progesterone as a result, which thickens your lining and prevents AF.:
11dpo FRER bfn. I should trust my body more when I know it hasn't worked.
Sorry to hear about your bfn Maruschke, sending you loads of hugs xxx
I hope you girls dont mind me joining in again. Ive spoken to DH tonight and we have decided to bring the FET forward and do it in....dum dah dah dah.......December!!!
Im so excited! We hva eonly done one fresh transfer so far which resulted in a chem pregnancy. For all you ladies out there that have done FET's, what was the process?
I guess I call the clinic at the end of my next period (due around 20 November) and then they will tell me where to go from there but im curious about what happened for you ladies?
xxx
Hi ladies,
So sorry Marusche :hug: be kind to yourself! It never gets any easier does it
That's exciting news Amy-jellybean! I always feel so much more positive about things when a plan is in place. I usually try to spend the few weeks preparing trying to be super healthy, walking, drinking heaps of water. No luck yet though.
Thinking of you nothing2lose. I hope you get some good news soon.
My tww is almost over thank goodness!! Although I have pretty much ruled myself out at the moment. I am 10 days post transfer and have been getting very light cramping on and off today. I think I have convinced myself that it hasn't worked for me. I will continue to have a tiny glimmer of hope until AF arrives or my BT on wednesday, whichever comes first.
Needless to say I am feeling pretty low today. Starting to wonder if I really am meant to be a mommy :shakehead:
Well, that's enough self pity for one day....
Good luck everyone else!!
Amy best of luck with your FET in December. Might be a lovely Xmas present!
Rach :hug: so sorry... although I hold out hope, I know what it feels like to have those symptoms at the end of a TWW. Is AF due tomorrow?
Not much from me, BFN again today... thinking about doing some exercise and shedding some weight and hoping that makes a difference next time.
Maruschke- My egg pick up was 2 weeks ago this Wednesday, so I'm assuming that's when the dreaded AF will be due?! I'm on the delightful Crinone at the moment, so I suspect it may be holding things at bay for the moment.
One minute I'm certain it's all over with some mild cramps, sore (.)(.) gone, the next I wonder, with painful boobs again, and no cramps!! I'm so confused!! I've had a mild backache since about a week ago, so once again, can't tell if it is an AF symptom or not. I think the Crinone is playing tricks on me!
Anyway, I bought a HPT yesterday, but chickened out this morning. I think I've talked myself into doing one in the morning if nothing changes cramp and boob wise.
The next 3 days are going to be painful I think, until I get the conclusive BFN from my BT.
Trying to stay positive :crossfingers:
Hi Everyone,
Maruschke - so sorry to read of your BFN that really sucks. Fingers crossed for next time. I too am thinking with the weather warming up I really will try to get fitter - it can't hurt.
N2L - hope you are going ok - think if I was you I would have gone insane by now. Really hope things go well for you!
Meg76 - hope you are going ok.
Rach82 - hope you are going ok too and that you get a BFP this coming week.
Amy - thats so exciting!
Tantee - Hi, Im not sure where you are at in your cycle but wanted to send you best wishes.
Hope I didn't miss anyone!
AFM - I had my HSG scan on Friday and unfortunately they found a block in the left fallopian tube. Man it hurt but eventually they got some dye through. Im going in for a scan and bt at the clinic tomorrow morning to see how many follies I have and when we can do the trigger so will ask the nurse what the specific results are from the HSG and what the repercussions are. Hopefully the scan unblocked it and we are good to go. Has anyone else had this???
Hope everyone has had a good weekend.
The HSG told me I had a blocked left tube, and it was painful when they did that side... but then when I had the lap it was all open and normal. Apparantly sometimes your tube can spasm and appear closed when in fact it is open.
M - Thanks. It was also 'ballooned' in the area where they struggled to get through. The Dr suspected scar tissue, Im hoping that since they finally got through all is ok. It was so painful though!
N2L - I saw your bad news on the other thread. Im so sorry! I really thought you were in with a chance. Bug hugs to you and your DP. It was meant to be your turn. The world is not fair.
Hi All
Just wondering was today N2L's BT today? Has there been any news - have I missed a post in another thread??
She had it yesterday and it was 5. I haven't seen her today, but might have missed her... my heart broke when I read the number.:
I am just waiting for AF so I can start the new cycle. Should be here Wednesday.
Hi Kond and Maruschke
Big hugs to N2L - hope you are going ok, well as ok as you can be after the disapointment.
Maruschke - I hope af arrives and is kind so you can get started with your next cycle. Wishing you lots of luck.
Hi Darlings,
Lots of love to N2L if you're about. I know too well that there's not much that can be said that is of any use, just know my thoughts and heart is with you.
Maruschke: Hope you're ok. Have you had a BT or just going from the HPT?
Hi to everyone else.
xxx
Just going off HPT. BFN at 13 dpo is fairly ominous, and I am cramping.
N2L you around? I've been thinking of you :hug:
Yeah. Kind of. Just trying to regroup.
Sorry to hear about your bfns. Have you had your blood test yet???
Nope, not doing a BT. AF should be here tomorrow and that is proof enough for me, with a BFN at 14dpo. Are you doing a frosty next cycle? We might (sadly) be cycle buddies. Sadly, because I was hoping for you so much that you could move on to a BB thread :(.
I have not got AF yet. Need to have another BT on Thursday to rule out ectopic.
Not sure where to next. I have to weigh up some options.
Hi all, it seems like everyone has been having a rough time of it lately so wanted to send some well wishes and a :grouphug:
Hopefully this next week will bring some more positive news for everyone.
N2L I'll be thinking of you tomorrow - I hope the BT goes well.
AF is here (well, spotting is here). Started late this afternoon. So is today CD1 or is tomorrow? Also, does anyone know how big a follie should be at CD7 or 8? Ta
Thanks M.
Not sure what to think. No AF yet. Been a little crampy today (mild) and my boobs are really veiny :dunno:
I don't want it to be an ectopic :(
To answer your question, tomorrow would be CD1. I reckon about 14mm or so for follie size.
Thanks - I'm going to have to reschedule my scan to next thursday which will be CD8.
N2L are you holding onto a slim hope? I know there are some amazing stories out there that make people think wow... and we know they are in the minority but that doesn't mean we don't invest some hope in them. I hope you are one of the amazing stories of low hcg that goes on to be a healthy preg, I really do. But I also understand guarding yourself. Anyway :hug:.
No. No slim hope. I have googled enough to know it doesn't look good.
Cramping is probably AF on it's way :(
Had blood test this morning...literally walked out of the pathology place, walked across the hall to the loo only to find I have started bleeding. So I guess the results are in. Glad it's not an ectopic but I still feel like bawling :(
Oh darling girl, it really is horrendous. So so sorry. Lots of love to you.

:( N2L I am gutted for you. So sorry hun. :hug:
:grouphug: N2L I am so so sorry. Thinking of you and sending huge hugs.
thats shattering N2l, I really had my hopes up for you as everyone did.
Big hugs to you and DH xx
N2L - so sorry that its all been confirmed. Big hugs.
Maruschke, Saffy, Rach, Meg and anyone else I have missed hope you are doing ok. Where are you all at in your cycles? Hopefully on the way to a bfp
I'm seeing FS tomorrow, then an FET next cycle, should be in a week or two, assuming AF comes when she should!
I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for you! :D
