July Thread

[NickiMark]

Thats good to hear that clomid doesnt make huge differences, I am worried about headaches, I get lots of them anyway and have heard that clomid gives u more headaches!!!

And waht with working too, worried about that really, as for the emotional thing I cry at everything anyway, so doubt i'll notice that!!!!

What day are u on now huney???

At last AF showed her ugly head last night. Now i'm just waiting for the Dr's office to get back to me, to tell me what do do next. Well i know what to do next i'm becoming a pro at this.. just need to know when to start.

I have a question and it's not a nice one it's a bit gorry.

When i was wiping this morning on the toilet i noticed a rather big clot, that's not unusual, but it wasn't all red like they normally are it had white fleshy parts in it.

Can anyone shed any light on this, is it what i think it is Do you think the Dr got it wrong.

Paula,

Heres a link for that book

Dory, some times on my day1 of bleeding, the blood is quite stretchy like the same type when you the egg white discharge at ovulation.....I never have worried about it and thought it's normal, but if u are worried see your dr. xx

Hi

I thought I would join you as I am just about to start an unmedicated FET. We only have 1 frozen embryo left and we have a really poor thawing rate so I am quite concerned that the odds are very high that we wont even get to ET. However this is almost a bonus cycle because we were actually planning a fresh cycle in September so I will just cross everything that it works.

I start taking Clomid on day 2 of my cycle whenever that may be, should hopefully be any day and if everything goes as it hopefully should I would be having ET late June then testing in July.

Lets hope July is a positive month for us all

I am so glad AF reared her ugly head for you!! What kind of protocal does your clinic do for FET??

Acupuncture... I have only been a couple of times and am always relaxed when I leave. I need all the relaxtion that I can get. I am willing to try anything if it will get me baby in my arms..

NickMark & Em
I took Clomid for 2 cycles a couple years ago and I was a little more emotional and had a few headaches. Nothing that was tolerable.

I am kindof down in the dumps right now. I found out Sunday night that I am going to be a great Aunt. My nephew is 6 yrs younger than me and been married almost a year. I just don't know if I can joyful for them right now. I think we are suppose to have a get together this weekend and I am thinking about not going. Like my husband phrased it... We don't want to rain on thier parade, but we don't want a sunburn...

I am wishing us all a heaping dose of PMA!!

[Dory]

Gailp - Glad you could join us, I hope it all works out for you and i'm sure that your little embryo is a strong one and will dig deep and stay put.

Jeck - I know how you feel when someone close has baby,

When i had my first ectopic my brother and his wife found out they were pregnant.

When my baby died 1 hr after birth, my best friend was still 7 months pregnant.

When i had my second ectopic my friend just found out her IVF had worked and now luckily she has a beautiful baby boy. It was her first attempt and she only had 2 embryos.

It seems everyone around us is having babies, but just keep your faith and it will happen for you in the end.

I will say though don't go at the weekend if you don't want to, you don't need that stress and heartache, if they are any kind of friends they will understand. The last thing you need is constant baby talk.

My FET will be bit different this time as i have problems with my uterus lining it doesn't develop properly.

So as far as i know i will start with the pill for 2 weeks then i start the lupron hopefully my period will start about 4 days after that, then i start intermuscular jabs of estrogen twice a week till i'm 3 months fingers crossed.
4 days before the transfer i start medrol and doxy antibiotics and progesterone pesseries 3 times a day.

CORR i must be becoming a pro i ran that straight off my head.

Have a good day
Rachel

Hey girls,

Feeling a little low today so only short one from me. Its probably the Clomid kicking in but I have an incrediably painful left breast. I got one of the girls to ultrasound it today as I was sure I had to have developed a cyst but it's not. So look forward to painful boobs ("tender" as the info sheet calls them is NOT acurate!). As for headaches, I haven't had any this cyle or last.

I'm currently up to day 6. I'm meant to have a scan on monday to check my follies but its a public holiday here so I'm just going straight to bloods. I have to work on Saturday which is day 8 so I'll have a sneaky peek myself under ultrasound (its very handy being a radiographer sometimes!)

Hope you are well.

Em
