Hello all,

After spotting last night, I woke up this morning with cramps and AF. :( I even took an HPT, just in case, though I knew of course that it would result in a BFN.

DH and I had a long and positive chat and I think I will take some time off to get my body de-toxed from all the meds before giving it another go. This wasn't our time but we learned a lot from the process and we are hopeful for a positive outcome in the future.

Thanks so much to everyone for all the wonderful support. Caz, I hope your little embies hang in there! And for all those of you who testing this week, wishing you lots of BFP's!!!

Hi Girls,
How are you all doing. I am just venting my frustration here. Last cycles, when I was on progestrone I had constipation, sore boobs etc. This cycle, I just dont have any constipation, sore boobs or any other symptoms at all. I have this cnstant fear that something is wrong!!

Hope God listens to my prayers this time.

Take care all, and hope we all make it to a happy end!!!

Hi all

Well, the blood test confirmed it was a BFN for me :cry: which is what I'd suspected after AF coming on Sunday. I think I'm all cried out now, but will still celebrate Valentine's day tonight. DH is taking me out for a meal - it's a surprise where. He's such a honey! And we still have the FET to look forward to and the dr said we could even start this cycle.

Welcome to the new Feb testers Smokeroni and Angelbaby!
Good luck Sandra and Angela for tomorrow and not long for you Kate now either!!
Sml – really sorry for you. I understand exactly how you feel, as it’s happened to me too. We were meant to test the same day as well.
Traci – I do hope you eventually get some follies after the increased dosage. It must be so disappointing but don’t give up hope.
Chellejaya – hope you feel better soon. I had the same thing and was so glad to be back home again (even though I was only in hospital 5 days :wink: )
Caz, vmb2006 – you keep hanging in there
Maryjane, Paula – sorry it wasn’t +ve for you either
Anna – you’re doing a wonderful job with the list. Thanks. Enjoy your break!!

Well done to all the BFPs!!!! and good luck to all those desperately waiting.

Eminde: So sorry about your news. I wrote int he ohter posting as well. But keep strong and still believe it will happen soon!!

SML: I am sorry about the negative result. Get your body well very soon and keep at it. For me it happened at the same age as you are, so hopefully this year, you will be pregnant!! If there is something i could say to you, do it again as soon as you are able to as i am finding that i wished i stared again earlier, not delayed the treatment as i did for this treatment.... wishing lots of luck in your next treatment.

CAZ: Keep strong and wishing you lots of luck.

VMB: Wishing you lots of luck as well.

Anna: All the very best next month. Good luck and baby dust to you...

Wishing everyone testing soon lots of BFP!

Love

Eminde,
I'm so sorry. I really hoped you would have better news, but unfortunately it wasn't to be this time.
Enjoy this evening, and many more in the days to come. Looking after each other is a great source of comfort and move on only when you feel ready.

Hello Feb Testers!

Traci - I don't blame you for being mad. You should be. However, your perseverance has got to pay off sooner or later, Dear. It's like you are solving a mystery and every test, every cycle, every bit of new information (even the process of elimination itself) is all drawing you closer and closer to the KEY that will unlock your fertility. You are young - THANK GOD you started early. Please don't give up. We are rooting for you! :D

Hugs to our newest BFNs. :cry: I'm sorry it wasn't your time.
And congrats to the BFPs. :D You give us hope.

Got my premenstrual migraine yesterday, so I'm 99.9% sure this didn't work. I expect to see good ol' AF by tomorrow if not Thursday. So, I'll have my definate answer even before Friday's test... which I will go through with just for closure sake. Please don't feel pity for me, as I am doing fine. I've had several days to get used to the idea, plus first-time lucky just doesn't happen to 44-year-olds, come on. :wink:

We will go again as soon as the docs say okay.

BEST WISHES that we finish the month as well as it started! Good luck to the next testers! Baby dust! :D :D :D

Hi,
BFN for me, too. I guess 13 really is an unlucky number. We're devestated! This was our last shot, unfortunately. Sorry to hear about all the other recent BFNs. I feel your pain. Congrats to the new BFPs!! To everyone else, I hope your dreams come true! I'll check back in from time to time, but I think I need to take a few days to let all this settle.

Kelly, I'm so sorry. Please don't make any hasty decisions. Sending you lots of love and hugs.
Randa - SO hoping that you're wrong. Many people get af "feelings" that don't materialise so am keeping everytihng crossed it's the same for you. It ain't over till the fat lady sings so to speak!!!!

So sorry to everyone who got a bfn. Sending cyber hugs.

To those of you who got a bfp - come over to the "Waiting for 1st scan" thread and post your date. It was started some months ago for those who didn't want to tempt fate by "crossing over" too soon!! Everyone can cheer you on and we can all go mad together!!

Happy Wednesday to all!
