December-January Cycle Buddy's Our New beginnings

[Haylie]

Rachel- glad you had a good nite even if you were sober, alcohol definitley helps with these things! Hope af comes along soon, it's a nightmare when you won't her she won't come and when you don't want her she arrives with avengence!!

Bec - how did it go today? Have been thinking of you!

Ange - 4 embies put back where they belong, that's great, BFP all the way!

Aunty- have you recovered from your party yet?

Am off to bed now

Take care allxx

[Angie65]

Dear ladies - god I felt like my right arm was cut off when the board went down - so glad it is back back so much to catch up on so sorry this is brief.

Carolyn - so sorry for your BFN. And yes, it would have been great to commiserate over a wine or 3! I hope you have a beautiful holiday in the sun - you shd come to Oz - it's pretty nice here (give or take the odd bush fire!)

Jemma - good to hear from you - missed you! I am so sorry for your family's terrible time. Adoption -hmmm - I guess it's something that we all have to think about at some point. It's hard to know - here in Oz you have to have stopped IVF for at least 6 mths before you can embark on the process - they want to make sure you are really committed I guess.

Bec - loads of luck for ET - keep us positive. You realise with with 3 BFN's in a row on the board, the odds are very good for the next ladies to get BFP's so that will be you.

Have to go - my meeting has just started - god - work is so annoying when I want to talk to you ladies. Will write more later.

[Angie65]

Well - I can write more now. Tex and Ange - good luck on the 2ww - this board was a life saver for me esp in the 2nd week. Feel free to rant and rave and go crazy - I did.

Sonya - so pleased all 4 fertilised - cute names too - next time I will name them and get more personal with the embies.

I can't believe it was only Monday I got the BFN. It seems like forever - really busy at work, and with CHristmas - I am not organised at all which is a good thing as taking mind off things. Have a girls dinner out on Friday - we are doing a review of the year and generally laughing at each other . Most in the crowd are single 30 somethings - a bit like the girls in Sex and the City so it will be fun! Only 1 friend knows what we've been doing so I'm hoping no awkward questions come up and I can relax and have a few wines.

Tomorrow morning is post BFN review with dr - have to work out some questions tonight to ask him. If he says "It's really just a numbers game" like he did last time, I will not be happy. I want to know if there are any changes we can make.

Hi to everyone else.

Hi Lovely Ladies,

Thanks a lot for all the prayers. Im sure DH N fam will recover soon. Your words n prayer mean a lot to us. Anyway, I'll catch you later. Im very busy right now. Also an additional job for my India friend to clean her 3 mo home Her 6 mo baby girl is allergic to dust. OMG, I hope she is okay here cause we are dust country. She is coming from India this saturday I miss her a lot. I Hope you are all okay. My thoughts n prayers always be with you everyday

Anyway, DH n me talked on phone. He is very serious. He said He had been thinking about it for a long time but he thought I wasn't ready yet. I told him, I thought we must do one by one. He said He was still wanted us to IVF, but He wanted to move one step forward next year. Then I agreed.
But... I searched on Internet, sadly our government doesn't have official agent to adopt. Only one n only local. My poor country. DH n me already discussed probability to adopt aboard like Vietnam, China. But we don't have the access. Not because I don't like children from my own country, adoption from this agent very difficult. So we want to have another option.
So, Ive been talking to some friends, they said I could come to Hospital. Contact nurse, told that if someone leaves the baby, just give the info to me. After I have the baby, I contact the government for legal thing. Don't you think is weird? I think so. Apparently, many parents here had adopted children from this way. They said many baby left on Hospital.

I think I must discuss further after DH home. Cause this is too complicated. If we want to adopt outside, who wants to give a baby to a family who lived in one of poor country? If Im trying what people do mostly here, how do I know I get healthy baby? I don't mean to discredit. But I must see my ability n strength too.. Here, we are dealing a lot with drug problem. The problem never improve since it become booming on 1997. The disease from this problem is increasing every year.
Im so happy I have you to talk. You are welcome to give your opinion and correct me if im wrong. Thanks a lot.

I don't think this country has regulation about doing adoption while doing IVF. Again my poor country But, I think the regulation on your country must be thought by us. I will discuss with DH. Thank you

Talk to you soon. GBU
Luv, Jemma

[becleo]

Hey all- yeah love the fact the site was down...... AAAH!
damn internet!

transfer went fabulous. I have gotten to know most of the nurses in there since we have been there for a year already! kinda strange but such is life.
we transfered 2 absolutely perfect embies. highest grade and a high implantation rate!!! so here we go!!!!

I even asked the nurse to do a fertility dance in the transfer room!!!! so funny.
I did accupuncture before and after and felt so at peace. really hope this is it!! have a great feeling so we'll see. COME ON MY CHRISTMAS MMIRACLE MOMMY IS WAITING!!!!!!! thank you to all of your prayers and baby dust means the WORLD to me!!! I love you all my strong ladies!!!!!


GbNUT- how are you doing?

TC GOOD FOR YOU for sticking up for yourself and a little white lie is ok as long as it is to mean people heheh, my DH wasn't there and mt SIL never even went to the session and she just got her BFP! so no worries!!!

Shantala- were are you at with everything? open night is soon?? besides that WHATS UP????????????

Meg- I totally agree about becoming closer to DH, we had a lot to deal with so far as a couple, DH was diagnosed with cancer shortly after we got together. and to be able to get even closer theru all this is pretty amazing, I also have learned just how strong I am!!!! and this little peanut will always know how loved he she or both really is!!!!!

Ange- 2ww partner! that is amazing 4 embies back!! how are you doing so far?

Rachel- Yes indeed the transfer was really good, a bit uncomfy because they had to go thru my cervix to get me eggs during ER but all in all , life is good!
almost time to start for you too sweetie huh!

Baby Blue- I am always wondering about the sex with DH ! doc says up to us, but for some reason I do get nervous. don't want to bump anything around... but i think it is whatever you feel comfy with! and what nerve that guy had to ask you to put it off... I want kick the crap out of him!! !grrrrr. ok i am on hormones! I heard about Aculaser, but not too much! let me know what you find

Angie- I do hope BFP is around the corner! lhopefully change this threads luck!!!!! Good luck with your meeting!!!! my heart to you!

Sonya- YOU ARE A IVF STALKER!!!!!!!!!!!and love the names. i keep talking to the embies too! I am waiting to hear how the other 7 do and see how many we can freeze. such the proud momma!!!!
GOOD LUCK with your transfer!!!!!!! keep those feet up!!!!

Bec

[shantala]

afternoon ladies!!

dr winston programme was very good again last night. made me cry.

aunty - sorry didnt get a chance to have a bigger play last night as i'm still not feeling too good. got home from work at 5.30 and fell asleep from 6 till 9!! then watched dr winston 9-10 and went back to sleep at 10!! so, sorry!

jem - it does sound very strange that you just wait for a baby to be left!! aaww! i guess if your government does not have much legislation on adoption then why not!? i would pick up some poor sould who had been left any time if i could! it breaks my heart to hear these stories! let us know how you get on with that. dont know much about international adoptions, sorry!! have another chat with your dh - hope it goes ok.

ss- best of luck with your ET today. hope it all goes smoothly! hugs

angie - pls let us know how you get on with your follow up app today and what they said.

carolyn - thinking of you. xx

arizonakiwi - how did your app go yesterday??

sok - thanks! its great to hear that all 4 fertilised! cant wait to hear about your et date!

ange - 4 put back in?? woo!! thats great! omg, quads to come soon!!!

bec - how you keeping up my buddy?? hope you're resting plenty.

sorry about anyone i've missed. you're all in my thoughts though!

xx

[shantala]

bec - yet again we post around the same time!! how bizarre!! i'm at waiting stage - dh has had sperm frozen and blood tests but they mucked one of blood tests up so had to do again. by then open eve for dec was full. so waiting for a letter for the open eve in jan hopefully. should be on 10th or 17th. i hope its on 10th as af usually shows around 16th/17th and not sure if the open eve on 17th would mean i would have to wait and start till feb. god, does that all make sense?? apart from that, i'm all cool. nearly done all my xmas shopping and put up my tree 2 days ago so well getting in the mood! i've also bought a load of outside lights and made dh put them up on our house - it looks so cool! how about you hunny? how you feeling??

xx

[tcbalgord]

Geez the board melts own for a day and now I have so much to catch up on. Well I will do just that but today I am helping with Abby's xmas concert and getting ready for DH's xmas party tomorrow! Which I am really excited about because I plan on getting nice and sloppy!
I went to that class yesterday and took my "real" mom, which was interesting because she told the nurse my entire life story!
Well, I was very confused going in there about what happens and how many, and the timeline seemed odd to me, but now I am crystal clear.
Aunty, the first nurse I spoke to all those weeks ago was obviously on some "crack"; I am done with BCP on the 29th, and AF should be here between the 30th and Jan 1st. Based on AF is when I'll start stimming, but my tenative ET is for Jan the 10th now.
The nurse was very nice yesterday and I am so glad that she cleared everything up for me.

I really do have to get going so I will do the personals later!

Chao

[becleo]

Shantala- I swear we must have been separated at birth! hhehehehe
great minds think alke! hehehe. stinks when bloods get screwed up! but it does sound like you are on your way. ahh I hope things go quick, it will pass by fast! especially with the holidays!!! I put p the lights last week and we decorated the tree the other night too. I love coming home to al the decorations!!!!! tis the season!!!!

Auntie I forgot to tell you my test is 12/24 YUP XMAS EVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! crazy huh!

TC-glad you got the class out of the way and feel better about becoming a pin cushion.. I remember my class and was SO worried I'd forget a step! but it is amazing what you can remember when a baby is the focus so you will be ringing in the new year with a pin and a poke hehehehe.

love to all!
bec

[sokru8]

Just a quick post!
TC: Glad you got everything cleared up. Sometimes its just better to get the information in person. I always make a list of things I need to ask.

Bec:I am soo glad that your e/t went great! Perfect embies. How awesome! Get some rest girl!

The clinic called and all 4 are still growing strong! I am so excited I can barely sleep! The transfer is set for Saturday! WOO HOO
Love To all
Sonya

[Fed7281]

Bec, I am so happy that things went well for you! Stay busy so that the 2WW goes by faster so that you will get you BFP. You might have said this already but when is your test day?

AF feels like it is coming but I am nervous I am not going to get it. When I had my surgery in August I skip a month of my period. I think I will lose my mind if I have to wait longer!

Well I am sorry this is so short but it is crazy busy at work today, will write more from home later.

Baby dust to all!
