Ladies!
How are we all today?? I've been up since 4.00am when I did another HPT, still positive but I'm thinking the line is getting fainter....I'll still have HCG in my system from the injections....Oh well the positive is nice to look at, I may frame it.
Angie tell Dr D not to be a lazy ******* and start counting. We want numbers and we want them NOW. Although I wouldn't worry too much about numbers, you are clearly not an under responder so anything under 20 and over about 9 would probably be bang on target. I spose with the longer stims he is just being careful????
I'm sure your spotty back was the talk of the weddding, trust you to upstage the bride. Was she giving you daggers??
Wanna I like the sound of your dad, and sounds like you have inherited his best qualities. My language is in the toilet at the moment. I like it. I'm hearing you on the freaking about cramping and the running to the toilet thing and looing for pink on the tissue. Never has going to the toilet been so stressful. And I should mention that I get stressed in a lot of toilet situations. I get stage fright in public toilets if someone is in the stall next to me. Just can't pee. Or in toilets on planes or trains I hate the fact that a lot of people saw me go in. Also gives me stage fright. I went on the train from New York to Florida and did not pee for a day and a half. Man that was painful...
Good one about seeing your mate before test. I was supposed to see my mate last week but was so convinced that I was a BFN that I made excuses not to go because I wasn't up to it, now I'm regretting that coz if its a BFN on Monday it's gonna be a whole lot worse.
Hey Patie how r u doing???? Sorry to hear about work being so boring and no privacy that sucks. I think the American Idol in America is a season ahead. We just had the one with grey haired bloke who looks like Jay Leno here...
Sass, Now you know that we like snarky and you know that we like P**sy so feel free to infect the thread with your moods. I know I've been in a foul mood in the last week, been an absolute cow...Thanks for your feedback on voodoo grooming, it's pretty much what I wanted to hear, I'm happy if the voodoo audience don't give it a second thought....I would love to abdicate my 2ww responsibility to one of my subjects, If only I had thought of that 13 damn days ago....wonder if I would have any volunteers for the job..
Gosh that alternative healing woman sounds interesting. Like you I am a sceptic but it sounds to me like she got the measure of you pretty damn well. So is she going to do anything about this blockage??? I'm pretty happy either way that she reckons it will be resolved in the next five months..good timing!
Melissa, welcome to the nuthouse. Sounds like you have been through the wringer and am glad you enjoy our thread here...Feel free to rant here, if it spares poor old DH so much the better. As you can probably tell we can all get a bit p*ssed of here at times and we vent freely. As for your next step, I can tell you that I skipped IUI and went straight to IVF on my Dr's recommendation. Not that I'm a specialist or anything but if DH's swimmers are going in circles they may need a personal introduction to your eggs via IVF??? Let us know how you go with your consultation.
Well I'd better go and stare at my two HPts some more.
Hello to Meggo, Vicky, Amy and Mia.
Fee
The Sisterhood of the Blue Stilettos
Hi Fee - hope you are enjoying staring at your HPT's - official day tomorrow I think? Then it is looking good right now I am thinking. What are you doing to pass the time? I just had a 2 hour nana nap - fantastic. A good tip to remember if ever you wish time to pass.
Vicky - I am so looking forward to hearing about your puppy training. I want a puppy if ever we get to buy a house which will fit one - can't really live in our unit here. Perhaps I can ask DH for a house bunny instead . Can you post a photo of puppy on photo bucket?
Sassy - alternative healer lady sounds interesting - I am a firm believer in "signs" and that sounds like one to me. Her timing sounds spot on.
Melissa - welcome to this crazy world. I am with Fee - we have male issue as well as my myriad of problems so it was straight to IVF/ICSI for us. Good luck with your consultation.
Thanks for your sensible words Patie and Fee on the numbers/treatment - you are right. I'm feeling nothing now and bloating seems to have gone. I am sure to beat the record on the world's longest stimmer but someone has to.
Catch you later.
Grumpy Ange - still sulking about the house - WHY didn't we do this 12 months ago before this mini house boom occurred - oh I know why - we had just had the bombshell we were "sub-fertile" and were trotting off like lambs to slaughter to the IVF clinic. grrrr!
Have good weekends everyone - I'm off to improve my mood - perhaps another nana nap is in order.

Hey girls...
melissa: welcome to the sisterhood! We are definitely NOT pc... but if you have read the thread i suppose you already know that! Yep, i am with the others... never had the option for IUI due to male factor.
Fee: oooo, i would be doing the same thing... have never had a second line on hpt.. so i would be looking at it over and over myself. Will be checking in over and over tomorrow to see your beta...Wishing you all the luck in the world! As for miss healer... she told me i don't need to come back to her for the IF stuff. She apparently "put it all in motion" or whatever she does. I actually like that... it makes me less suspicious of her since she isn't wanting me back over and over for the next 5 months. She told me my body would let me know when i need to return for the rest of it. Don't really know what that means...
Angie: the nana naps sound fab! As long as the RE gets good eggs retrieved in the end.. i suppose that is all that matters... but i am hoping that you are not still stimming when i start in a wk...?
So, my sil is VERY competitive... and i am thinking she is angling for a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Sisterhood, either that or honorary membership. Today at the hospital apparently she took to task a nursing assistant who asked her why dh and i don't have kids.... sil told her we doing ivf without success... etc. She told sil to tell us to just pray. sil got p*ssed off and told her we do pray, but apparently it isn't God's time. So she told sil to tell me to just give it to God (now, although i don't totally disagree with these concepts... being told that off hand by fertiles does p*ss me off a bit... and apparently sil too...). So sil asked her "do you have kids", and when she said yes... sil apparently gave her a lecture re: how saying such things are just attempts to dismiss the struggle of those with IF who have been unable to conceive. Apparently it caught the attn of one of the nurses and they had a big whole long conversation about how people are not sensitive to those unable to conceive... sitting in the peds hospital unit
. ANYWAY... she is out there fighting the good fight for us.
***Sisterhood breaking news***
I am going to make a t-shirt. Yep. I need a Sisterhood of the Blue Stilettos t-shirt. I am happy to send one to whoever wants one... although i understand privacy concerns, so won't be offended if no one wants one sent. Now, not sure what i should put on the back.... maybe the motto at the front of this thread? Any other ideas?... it should be something with sass... but appropriate enough to wear in public if needed. Anyone who wants one... just pm me. I am figuring it will be part of my uniform for ER/ETs...
hope everyone is well. Fee: you go girl!!!

Patie—I know you’re glad to have your DH back. Mine went away for one night this weekend and I couldn’t even sleep. I kept waking up every hour. I’m so glad he’s back. He told me to tell him when he’s pissing me off or stressing me out. When I tell him he has been backing off. I must say he’s been a pretty good boy lately.
Angie—Happy to hear that you are not hyper stimulating. Now tell that damn dr of yours that WE would like some measurements. What the heck is up his ass? Doesn’t he know better! I might take your nap advice. I know by the middle of the week, I’ll probably be a nutcase. I’m doing everything in my power not to purchase a HPT.
Sassy—You were so right about the warm and dead thingy. I knew she wasn’t going to kick the bucket but did they have to wait an entire 55 minutes to tell us. I mean talk about dragging it out. That really pissed me off. I wished I would have recorded it and skipped the commercials. They took it to far. lol That is spooky about the alternative lady knowing so much about you. WOW! Go figure. Hey, stranger things have happened. I would say, take it for what it is. She may not know what the hell she is talking about, but then again…she might very well be right on point! Maybe right it down and keep it somewhere safe so you can reflect on it when you get your BFP.
Melissa—Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! I am so happy you have found your way to us sweetie. We might not be the sanest ladies on this site but…we manage the best way we know how. Be that, ranting, cursing up a storm, giving crazy nicknames to people and objects, thinking of ourselves as royalty, discussing television shows, discussing food, shaving of vajajay’s, and talking about subjects that are totally unrelated to infertility….that’s all us and we’re very proud of it. We don’t fit the norm but we have formed a bound to get us through this crazy process. And the more the merrier, if you’re not easily offended. I’m so happy that you have found comfort in this thread. Now with all that said, I am so sorry you have had to endure all this drama. I (as well as most on this thread) can completely sympathize with the fact that everyone around you is getting pregnant with a drop of a dime as you constantly battle infertility. I have not given up hope yet. Our time will come. Every thing happens for a reason and in a season. God may not come when you want him to come…but he is always there. Have faith! Never give up on being a mommy! BTW..Thanks for the GOOD LUCK! Oh yeah, on another note..I had 6 IUI’s…all freaking negative. If I were you and if it possible…just skip to the IVF.
Fi—You are too funny with the framing of the HPT. LMAO How long will the line stay? Can you use a marker to darken it? Lol My stomach hurt from laughing so hard at you not peeing for a day and a half. LMAO…I could never go that long. I pee so much I have a nickname. But if I tell you, you have to promise not to tell anyone. lol They call me pee pee express. HA…now that I think about it, my dad also gave me that name. But honestly, I go all the time. I can’t even go on a car ride without stopping. My friends use to hate when I rode with them on trips. lol They wouldn’t let me drink anything. ARGH…painful memories. I couldn’t imagine not peeing for a day and a half. Hell, I can not go without peeing for an hour and a half. I hate when I go to use the bathroom at work and one of my coworkers is in there. I feel like just turning around and walking out. I have this one coworker who talks to me if she sees me go into the stall. I just want to curse her out and tell her to shut the f*** up! I’m trying to do my business and I don’t want to talk to you. How rude! BTW….Is it Monday yet for you? I’m really eager to hear your results. How do you feel? My DH asked me yesterday if I felt pregnant. I thought… WTF?? How am I supposed to know how it feels to be pregnant. HELLOOOOOOOOO, I’ve never been pregnant! Where the hell has he been? Ok, was that just a rant??
Well never got my massage today. Once again it snowed here. I am so ready for summer. But the roads were really bad and I decided to go home after church. Almost got into a car accident the roads were so bad. Massage is rescheduled for tomorrow. Spent most of the day lying around watching television. DH really wants me to relax and stay off my feet. Hey, works for me. Trying not to stress out and over analyze every little twinge I feel. Also, trying to stay positive. These next couple of days are going to be a killer. I am going to need my sistas to keep me sane, Did I mention that I’m afraid to change my ticker because I don’t want to jinx anything. Weird I know.
Hope you all are doing well!

Hi All,
Thanks for all your good wishes, means a lot!
No news yet....I'm not expecting anything until about 2.00 or 3.00pm today (3 or four hours away still). This is killing me! I now have a grand total of 4 positive HPTs though....Please don't let it be from the HCG injections!!!!
Ang -sorry about the house thing, I know what it's like to miss out, you spend so long finding the one that you want then dammit it's out of reach...the property market in Perth is insane at the moment, glad I'm not buying..and congrats on the lengthy stimming record, I guess it beats OHSS though. Dr D sounds very cautious and quite unsexy.
'm with you on the nana naps. Had a three hour sleep on both days of the weekend just to try to make time go quicker. Was up all damn night though.
Sass, sign me up for a T-Shirt! you're amazing, add designer to the many feathers in your cap. As far as that healer goes she gets instand cred in my book for not demanding any follow up consults with you. Very interesting. Are you starting stims next week???? Geez that came up soon! Man your SIL is becoming a legend around here. I think she should go on a public speaking circuit, we will round up all the punters who have P*ssed us off and she can given them a ruddy good lecture.
Wanna, or should I call you PP X-Press??? (sorry not too good with secrets) I think between us we would have the perfect bladder. I also feel like leaving the bathroom if a co-worker is in there...but WTF the one that talks to you??? Is she all there? That is a gross intrusion of privacy. I'd smack her if I were you. Just wallop her with the toilet door, that way it may pass for an accident. Hope you are taking it easy, DH sounds like a sweetie, I'd milk his kind nature for all it's worth.
As far as the HPTs are concerned none of the lines have faded yet. I have been comparing the four of them and they all look kind of similar...

so exciting - am on the edge of my chair. Couldn't keep away and had to sneakily peak in between meetings! Come on sista - you can do it!
PS - Sassy count me in for a t-shirt too - you are so talented - watch out Stella McCartney - these will become all the latest on the cat walk.

Hey Girls!! NO COMPUTER ALL WEEKEND! DH came home on Friday and I complained about how it was "dropping" me whilst busy with my girls here and he said that was unacceptable... (have I told you he now refers to himself as "DH"? pretty cute!) So being the IT guy he is - he totally took the computer apart and rebuilt it this weekend. Finally he is done - of course I couldn't complain, but I was tempted to go to a neighbors and log on. I did try "surfing" the hood with our laptop to see if I could get a wireless connection, but apparently everyone locks their systems!! I couldn't stand not knowing HRH's status!! I am dying to know. I just have a great feeling that the royalty will now have her own court.
Sass - Love LOVE LOvE the ideas of the shirts. I was also going to ask for addresses to send out a little crafty nonsensical Sisterhood item, but didn't want to infringe on peoples privacy. If you guys are okay with sharing - we should just PM our info so we can send little fun packages to each other. I love getting mail as it is usually only filled with bills! Sassy I would also like to send you some cash via paypal to cover the costs of the shirts.
Your sil is awesome! She should definitely be used as a witness for our IVF defense. We will put her on the payroll.
Wanna - Sounds awful with all that snow! I HATE driving in the snow. I never had issues with it until last year when my ds and I slid off the road TWICE last winter. I think the problem is all the people that DON'T know how to drive in the snow and head up to the hills for skiing in their giant SUVs and think they are invincible. Here in CA we have pretty strict chain restrictions, but so many people have SUVs they don't think they have to change their driving when they hit the snow. The first time we slid was because someone in their giant Tahoe stopped on a snow covered up hill and began to slid down at us - so I had to quickly stop and there fore slide and went into the ditch. I was so PISSED! Being from the mountains we call people from the bay area flatlanders - so my DS yells - "Go home flatlander!" at them. I couldn't have been more proud. The second time little DS and our dog Bella were driving through a blizzard to get to my parent's house and came across some horrible driving conditions. We made it all the way to their house, but when I hit the driveway, the wheels just started to slide in the deep snow and we slid all the way down the driveway and stopped in large pile of snow. After last winter I changed the tires on my car, hoping for more traction, but am SO afraid to drive in it. I haven't been to my parents house since Christmas!! I need to get over it! Sorry for the crazy rant! I think because my parents keep asking me to come up I am obviously holding onto some fears and feel the need to confess my subconscious stress to you!
Are you testing on Thursday?? I can't wait to hear about your week. This is the worst part of it! I also hated going to the bathroom... like you are going to pee it out or something. Horribly stressful.
Fee - What are you doing to pass the time? I can't stand the wait. I just know that all those positive hpts have to mean something.
Angie - The housing situation SUCKS! It always feels like everyone has more money to spend and they always seem to have an edge. What I think is that you can only have so many good things at one time - so maybe what we need to focus on is the ivf - and potentially win some sort of medal of honor for stimming the longest. Then you can apply the good things happen in threes and the house will fall into place. If you want, I can come down there and focus a full time search for the perfect place. I will then tell them I am representing Naomi Watts and she is using her alias - Angie - they will be so excited to sell to her that we will get it hands down.
So we won't get a count on the follies til Tuesday?? You should tell your RE that if he doesn't hurry up and whip out the vagiscope he is going to get some pretty aggressive hate email from California. I also think you should start submitting your accu bills to him.
Vicky - How did puppy training go? What did Sanson learn this week? Bella our pug did puppy school at Petsmart and she did great, but didn't really retain a lot. She is not a real active dog - so the leash skills were wasted.
Melissa - Welcome to the thread! I had a whopping 13 failed IUIs and I have to say that if cost isn't an issue - you might want to jump straight to IVF, but if you are on a budget you might want to try one round of the IUIs as some get pregnant that way. We also have male factor and wish that we hadn't wasted so much time doing them - they were just free so it was hard to leave.
Cupcakes are officially all gone. They were the ever popular yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Tonight I will be hitting the ice cream bon bons...

Thanks for the song Amy, I love the Beastie Boys, Dammit I'm dying here as well. My imagination has taken over and I'm thinking that my results have been at the clinic for ages but they are all fighting about who has to make the call to give me the bad news....They've probably been fighting for hours... Fee
This is reminding so much of my last transfer!! You need to do what I did - call the place - tell them that is okay for them to let you down easy and that whatever the outcome you won't hold them personally responsible... just that they should do it now because you know where they live. Ok - so I didn't tell the woman that I knew where she lived - but I wasn't in the Sisterhood then, and I didn't know about the IVF defense - had I, I would have totally thrown that out there. Remember - I will fly there to be your witness, and testify on your behalf.
Make that call! Wear them down.... use your legal big words to seduce the results right out of their unsuspecting mouths...

Good idea, I think that they already thing I'm a nutter so what's to lose. Alternatively I could just get in my car, drive over there, bang my fist on the counter and demand to speak to the manager....I think if they don't call within the next 58 odd minutes I will give them a blast. I'm liking the idea of veiled threats as well. I know I love recieving them in my profession, keeps me on my toes. Fee
