Hi ladies,
Well I'm normally real positive and now the past 2 days I've been down and feeling negative. There is no rational explaination why I feel like it didn't happen for me again, but that's the way I feel. Did anyone else feel this way and then end up with a BFP?
I guess it is just easier sometimes to expect the worst. After all, some of us have been repeatedly disappointed. It is a scary time and the waiting is the worst. I will not know for another week and I have been keeping as busy as possible this time. Keep the positive thoughts flowing.
Beauty,
Thanks for the words of encouragement. You have a really good point. I don't want to be disapointed again. The transfer went really well compared to my first time, but if I get my hopes up and it doesn't happen for us, that would devistate me. OK so I guess I'll just feel like crap for the next 9 days. UHGG! !
I got quite down at the start of week 2 of TWW. I think it is a way of preparing for the worst. I don't want to come down with such a thump as I did last time, so now have developed a very negative attitude to whethr this will work. Hope you are feeling better. When do you test? I'm testing on 26th Feb - a lifetime away!! Fee
Fi,
That's probably it. I'm feeling negative because I don't want to get my hopes too high. Are you having any symptoms? The only thing I can feel different is I'm getting a sharp pain in my ovary groin area on occasion. My ovaries are non functioning (donor eggs) so I know it's not my ovaries.
I'm thinking the pain is being caused be the progestrone. I also didn't have any implantation bleeding. I have to wait until march 2nd for my blood test. I'll be thinkin of you on the 26th and prayin' for your BFP!
I've been having cramps on and off since the day after transfer must be the meds because I took my first HCG after transfer and have been having HCG every third day since. Am not doing Progesterone this time but HCG which is also supposed to support the lining... Also have very slightly sore boobs the last day or two. usually get that just before AF (now that doesn't bear thinking about!!!). Man this is hard isn't it??? I'll keep my fingers crossed for your test on the 2nd.
I am new here and I too am going crazy with this 2ww. I have been trying to stay positive sometimes it is very difficult. I have a little less than a week to go for my beta. I have been every day for me and for the all the women out there who are going thru this awful 2ww.
1st FET 12/7/06
ending in chemical preg
2nd FET 2/15/07
Beta 3/1/07 159
2 beta 3/5/07
Well its the longest time ever... i know u r analysing every sympton and ur even scared of going to the toilet to avoid the throught of spotting ( i even stopped drinking water )
however you have to find something quite distracting...which is either tons of TV or get a nice and funny book that you can indulge in... put the music on...this will keep your mind of the horrible wait...
it helped me during my 2ww...i read "learning curves", for Melissa Nathan...funny and romantic... so i hope this method will also help u!
Today wasn't so bad. I was very tired and took a 3 hour nap in the middle of the afternoon. Anybody know when the fatigue is suppose to hit? I'm probably tired cuz I'm just bored. I haven't been working since we started this IVF. Have a nice day ladies
I'm excited for Fionna and Kswan cuz they're beta test is on Monday! Warm babies wishes to them
I'm 10dpt on Monday and thinking of doing a 20mIU sensitivity test. Not sure, I might talk myself out of it and just wait on Beta test March 2nd......This 2ww really bites bad
I'm glad your feeling abit better. I too felt very tired I think being off work makes you even more tired. I was unable to resist the hpt so I dont blame you at all for wanting to do it, if its positive great but if not it may make you feel down and this would not be good. As your beta may come back positive and you will have made yourself feel sad for nothing.
I'm back to work on monday and not looking forward to it. A 13 hour shift on a gynaecology ward is not my idea of fun at the moment, but hey I can't stay off work forever.
I'm anxious to have my FET but I know I have to wait a while, I havent seen my consultant yet following my BFN. I dont know whats involved in FET and whether I have to take more drugs or they just monitor my cycle, so i'm anxious to speak with my doctor.
Anyway you take care, my thoughts are with you and my fingers are crossed for you and your husband.

Kerry,
I'm sorry to hear about your result. I know what it feels like too. Sucks! . I'm pretty sure if I get another BFN I'll take a break and work an agency OR assignment for like 12 or 15 weeks before starting back on a fresh cycle. How long do you think your gonna wait till you do your FET?
Well, I did what I said I wouldn't do. I took a HPT. That was soooo stupid of me cuz it's only 8dpt. I even advised another against it. Shoot, how stupid! Ok, well now I'm not going to believe the BFN because it was just too soon test. If it would have been a BFP.....that would have been a different story. Anyway, I am just feeling like it DID happen for us this time so I refuse to be negative any longer and will not do another HPT till maybe the day before my beta.
I totally know where your coming from doing the HPT, we know we should'nt do it but we just can't help ourselves, its laughable really. I'm thinking positive for you and i'm sure it has worked this time too.
I am going to wait until i have had one more period following this one as this one has not been a normal one. I dont know how it all works but i just have to have one more period and then I will plan to have FET. I'm quite inpatient about it all but i know i have to wait.
Thinking if you too and will check in this week to see how your getting on. You hang in there and i know it will be ok
