Oh Ems, I'm really sorry to hear your news. Take care.

Jackie, I'm really sorry to hear your news too. Fingers crossed for the FET.

Well I'm feeling really sh*tty today. I don't know if my funny tummy feels strange because of the enlarged follies or if it's AF coming. I hate this. :evil: I keep trying to remember how I felt last time. I can't remember!

Nims - well done on your EC.

Jackoa - how exciting. I bet you can't wait to see that little baby beating away.

My neighbour told me yesterday that she's expecting twins! I was saying to myself of I hope that'll be me. Fingers crossed. We'll be delighted with 1!

Take care everyone. Paula x Image

Nims - Am so glad the EC went ok, was thinking about you, 6 eggs is great news, make sure you take it easy and DH looks after you.

Angela - please try and take it easy although Im sure your embies will be fine you need to keep calm for your own sanity.

Isla - yes it really is strange how you are so far ahead, I would love to know how they work it all out. I have a scan and bt on Tues to see how things are going. Good luck on Sunday with yours.

Aunty - the stimming seems to be much better than I thought. I seem to have a bit more energy than when I was just using the down reg meds.

Paula - hang on in there you can get through this and when you get your fab BFP it will all have been worth it!

Hey girls I heard on the news today of some guy whose DW had just given birth to triplets, it was a natural conception which was even more of a miracle because he had been through chemo and radiotherapy and was told there was never any chance of having children! So have faith and believe that one day we will all have our little bundle of joys!!!

hey Lisa really good to see you... i had to do the same thing with my clinic i had to call them on day one to let them know id started then go in on day 3 for bloods and ultrasound...its so good that your on your way at last...i dont thinik it matters how heavy you are its just they need the blood test on day three to get your baseline reading...i have a scan too to check for cysts and womb lining....

haylie so pleased your stimming is going well i love that part even when it gets uncomfortable because that means your little ones in there...

Paula oo that would be wondeful to be carrying twins but i know what you mean about being happy with one...

wow isla your e2 is up there isnt it sounds like lots of eggies to me...hope they controll it enough for EC..you have to start drinking lots of water ..make sure you get some gatoraid for after EC too promise it helps....

love to all...Aunty

YOU THINK I WOULD REMEMBER ALL THIS SHIT, BUT I GUESS A 9 MONTH BREAK HAS ALSO ERASED SOME MEMORIES LOL. I WILL CALL THE CLINIC TOMORROW AND ASK THEM. I BELIEVE YOU HAVE TO HAVE A FULL FLOW NOT JUST WHEN YOU WIPE, AGAIN TMI.. OH BOY...
SO HERE IS MY FIRST "CRAZY IVF BRAIN" STORY. STRESSED ALREADY AND HAVEN'T EVEN HAD A SCAN.
I WENT TO THE STORE TONIGHT TO BUY SOME LITTLE GIFTS FOR MY NIECES & NEPHEWS FOR THEIR HALLOWEEN BAGS. I KNOW IT'S ONLY SEPTEMBER BUT I AM ALREADY CHRISTMAS SHOPPED AND WRAPPED....
ANYWAY, THE YOUNG LITTLE GIRL/TRAMP WORKING AT THE STORE IS PUTTING THINGS BACK AND HAS A CART IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AISLE. I SAID EXCUSE ME I NEED TO GET DOWN, SHE GIVES ME A LOOK AND BARELY MOVES THE CART. I SAID IM SORRY BUT I NEEDED TO GET THROUGH, I GO DOWN THE NEXT AISLE AND SHE DOES IT AGIAN, NOW I AM MAD SO I PUSH HER CART DOWN THE AISLE AND I MOVE ON. SHE FOLLOWS ME TO THE NEXT AISLE AND SMIRKS AND LEAVES HER CART AGAIN, I LOOK AT MY HUSBAND AND I DROP KICK THE CART ACROSS THE FLOOR AND I SCREAM IN HER FACE, ARE YOU SERIOUSLY DOING THIS ON PURPOSE? DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM? GET THE MANAGER. MY HUSBAND IS PULLING ME DOWN THE AISLE AND I KNOCK OVER A DISPLAY. WHAT A SCENE, THE GIRL LOOKS HORRIFIED, AND THEN I WALK TO THE REGISTER CALMLY PAY FOR MY THINGS AND LEAVE LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED......
DO YOU THINK I HAVE SOME ISSUES.....?????????????
THE FUN HAS BEGUN, I THINK I BETTER STAY IN THE HOUSE FOR A FEW WEEKS, UNTIL THINGS GET GOING.....
LOVE YOU GIRLS,
LUCK AND LOTS OF BABY DUST TO ALL.......

Howdy, all!

Just a quick hi, I'm still kind of tired.
Had my EC today. Nimble, you are funny, but I was the same! Absolutely terrified of going under, but I too survived.

I had 11 eggs, but 2 were "overripe", so we had nine. The embryologist was to do just IVF on the eggs, but we had an unexpected male factor. The swimmers weren't swimming, so we paid the extra $1500!! to do ICSI instead. So far so good, all 9 eggs were mature, and ICSI went well. Tomorrow we should know which ones actually fertilized.

Nimble - Congrats on the eggs, let's hope this works out for us! I was thinking of you today!

I'm so sorry to all the BFNs, but hang in there! My thoughts are with y'all!

Zirly: just a few days to go for your test! Let's hope for a BFP!!

Well, time to pop in a DVD, and chill.

Hello everyone!

Toni, well done with EC, sorry you had to pay some extra, but i am sure it will be all worth it!

Lisamarie, poor thing.... you dont care about this girl, she will get over it and anyway, I am sure she deserved it!

Aunty, how are the shots going?? Thanks for your advice, at the end I called a nurse to give me the shot! I did not feel a thing!!


Paula, I am sending big buckets of patience, the last days are really hard arnt they! I also be over the moon with one, but if there is 2 in there it will be like a dream (i secretly wish for twins, but dh would be sooo scared)

Ange, I hope your follies grows and grows. My clinic dont do Ec at week ends!

Angela, I am sorry to hear that you are so busy at work. At least, time must go quickly those days for you.
I am sure it has not impacts on yor embies, dont worry !


Jackie, I bet you cant wait for the next scan!

Jackie(nims) well done sweetie, hoping for 6 embies!

Jemma, let us know about those follies. Gonal F is a stimmulation meds, like puregon or menopur.

For me, I am having some cramps all over my tums, dont know what it means. I think I also have a cold coming, my ears hurts and so does my throat :cry: . And I also have some kind of itchyness, down there :oops: ,
obviously very uncomfortable and I really dont feel like going to the gyn again... On Monday, DH and I are flying back to Angola, to pack up our things (and bring back my baby cat). We will stay a week, then back to France for a while. I will go at my mum, which mean I wont be able to connect :( , But i will make sure to let you know my result before I go!! One of Dh daughter is coming to live with us, so things are gonna change for me!

Love to all

Good morning all. Well I have only just got up and I should have started work an hour ago. I just wanted to post to ask if there are any cold remedies we can take, or whether to just brave it out. Like Souris I have woken up this morning with a feeling like I have flu on the way. I can't stop coughing and my energy is completely gone. I guess it is all the stress of work at the moment. Well at least the big function is tonight so in 16 hours that will be finished, although we probably won't sit down until then.

Last night at work was really bad and at the end I got very upset as I feel that if this doesn't work I will always wonder if the stress of this week has caused it. Well anyway DH was really understanding, and has agreed that if this doesn't work we should try FET at some point within the next year, once we have saved up enough pennies.

Well I can't put the start off any longer so I had better go. Good luck to everyone and Souris I hope that you feel better soon.

Angela
P.S. I hope that next week is better so I can stop being a winging old bag.

Morning Ladies,

Jeeeez my AF sucks :( for all u ladies out there who have had a BFN, how was ur AF afterwards - i dont think mine is right? I have terrible sharp pains on my right side, that have me cringing in pain, my lower back is really really aching, and as for he flow - its really heavy with (sorry!) big clots! :cry: I know that our overies have been thru a lot lately, but jeez i didnt expect an AF like this one. I usually am heavy and have clots (sorry again) cos of the endo - but no way are they this bad! What do u think?

My headache wont seem to go away either - i just want things to get back to normal so i can get on with life!!! It feels like its stopped at the moment, and everyone around me is carrying on as normal - all i want to do is curl up and cry! Every time i go to the toilet, im reminded that it didnt work, and it kills me - u would think that AF would have been a wee bit kinder this month, she's hurt me enuff as it is :twisted:

Well thats my moan over for the day :x

Ems/Vickie: How u both doing, i hope ur ok, i do think about you a lot. let us know how ur getting on. Ems, have u thought anymore about if ur going to try again. What about this new clinic Vickie, have u and ur DH made a decision weather or not to go for it. I would - it sounds a really great place :) Keep up the PMA girls, it will happen for us one day :)

Angela: Ur not a winging old bag hun, ur going thru loads right now, what with the 2ww and ur work pressures, u should take a look at some of my postings, then u'll know what a winging old bag is about :lol: For ur cold, i would stick to just paracetamol, thats what i was told. Or u could try a warm honey and lemon with a wee bit of sugar. Good Luck, hope ur funtion goes well - did u get any extra help?

Souris: Yes young lady, u had better let us know the result b4 u go to ur mums - it would kill us if we had to wait all that time to hear the good news :)

Tigergirl: Wow - a bit unexpected look into ur piggy bank there. I bet that was a bit of a shock - lucky u got a nice bank manager eh? lol. Well done on ur EC - take it easy and relax up now :)

Haylie: Good Luck with ur scan on Tuesday - did u say u was getting a blood test that day too? Dull question - but what for - what do they look for? I never had one blood test when i was on treatment - just the usuall at the start.

LisaMarie: LOL - i wouldnt want to go shopping with u in a busy supermarket hahahaha :lol: :lol: ur so funny :lol: And ur already christmas shopped and wrapped!!! Jeeeez, i need some lessons, im one of those last minute shoppers running around like a mad thing, and proberly end up in a tizz cos i cant get what i want - Good Luck with ur scan hun, and i wouldnt stay in for 3 weeks - u go out and enjoy :wink:

Aunty: How are the shots going? Still sore? U know it will be worth it in the end hun, when u get ur BFP :D

Hope everyone else is well, my DH is taking me out tonight - i will get my first glass of wine in weeks, i will make a toast to u all ladies, and wish u well .... Have a great week end, talk soon

Morning ladies, how are we all? I'm so upset. Just back from the toilet and guess what - it's bl**dy brown. This happened last time so i'm 99% sure it's my AF. I really thought it would work this time as my estrogen levels were so high and i was told i had a good chance of falling pregnant. Last time it happened 4 days before my test. Now it looks like it's 5 days this time. Why?????????????????? Paula x Image

I just called the clinic and I told them that I would not be around on day 3 and to make sure that it was okay to go in on day 4. The secretary was yelling to people and they said it was ok up to day 5. Do you think I should call back and ask for a doctor or should I take her word? Anyway she says oh your coming in for IUI right? Now this girl knows me for 1 year. I said No, IVF, she said fresh cycle?
PLEASE PEOPLE I JUST CANT TAKE THE STUPIDITY ANYMORE.
PULL OUT THE CHART SO YOU DONT SOUND LIKE A MORON...

AUNTY,
OH YOU ARE A BETTER PERSON THAN ME, IF SOMEONE TOUCHED MY CLOTHES, OMG YOU WULD READ ABOUT ME IN THE NEWSPAPER. LOL I HAVE TO SAY THAT I HAVE BECOME VERY UPFRONT SINCE ALL OF THIS IVF STUFF.

Every year I start Christmas shopping in August, Would you want to be in a store near me at Christmas time? Oh that is not a good thing. This way I am calm and I take my time. Time, boy that is all we all seem to think about huh?
Well I have to go now I am hiring a new girl today and I am going to meet with her. We shall see.

Hi guys,

sorry just a quick one cause I have Dh daughter in the same room, and she cant know about the IVF and forum

I had ET on the 13th, so only 3 days ago, but I have AF type cramp already. I dont know when I should have my periods cause they have been all over the place and also we had to "cheat" with the downregg so my hubby could be here at the right time.

Can it be Af already, has this happen to one of you??

Paula, I am so sorry hun, I hope it is just a bit a blood and not AF. My sister bled in the first 3 months of her pregnancy.

Becky, so sorry about Af being a b**** , but aunty is right, because of all the meds and the extra thick lining, things are worse than normal...

Got to go. feel really bloated today, I think still a bit of OHSS ( and I had an HCG shot last night so maybe it make things worse??)


Love to all
