Firstly congratulations to all the BFP's, I'm so happy for all of you. Its a dream come true.
Sorry for any of the BFN's, sorry this wasnt your time, and I wish you all the best for what the future holds.
Apologies that I havent been on the board in a while, I've had a bereavement in the family. The funeral was on Friday.
I also have some bad news. i started to spot on friday, ever so lightly and brown. On Saturday morning (yesterday) I had stomach cramps and the brown spotting became heavier.
I rang the unit and they saif they cannot say either way. We dont blood test at ours, we do a HPT on day 17 after ET. The nurse said i could test today, but wait for Monday 13th if I could. I tested this morning and it was a BFN. I'm gutteed, it was all going so well, 22 eggs, 16 fertilized, 1 put back, 12 frosties. I just thank god I've got some frosties to try again.
am going to test tomorrow, just to put my mind at ease, they said at the hospital that tomorrow will be the more accurate result, although in my mind I already know it.
I think i read somewhere on the board that red blood is a bad sign and brown can go either way....??? So confused at the moment.
I'm going to discuss having 2 embryos put back next time as they only put one back this time. This was due to a miscarriage about 9 years ago by a natural pregnancy.
I will post agin tomorrow with my official results, although I already know it will be BFN.
Maryjane - I've everthing crossed for you for tomorrow. We've seen similar situations before that have had happy endings. I know how difficult it is but pls try to think positive for another day ..

It doesnt matter f you sleep horizontal or anyway. Infact, I had my first IVF in india. After 2 days of rest , I travelled in the train to reach to my place and the train was literally rocking, shaking so much that my stomach twisted and turned like anything. you know how it is. I thought train would be safer but i had the worst experience. I thought, it was the end and I had given up hopes totally. During 2 WW I did not have cramps or anything. Sore boobs too reduced after a couple of days and then I went for blood test and guess....IT was BFP. Its another thing I had miscarriage later. But, it doesnt really depend on these factors as to my experience. If it has to work, it will anyways. Ya, just for our satisfactions, all the precautions need to be taken...you never know...right??
Hi Ash - In regards to decaf coffee....I have read this is just as bad for you due to the chemicals. How about some herbal tea? I gave up all caffeine and now have a closet full of herbal and fruit teas
What a busy thread
Sophie, glad to see all went well. Take care of yourself and your little packages! Good luck on 2ww, hope it flys by to a BFP!
