Hello Everyone,
I hope you are all doing well.
Looks like I made it through day 2 of the dreaded 2ww.

I am still cramping and very tired but that is probably from the prometreum. I am hoping for a sign that these embies are going to be implanting !!!!!


Daly- I bet you feel better now that you got to shower!

TTYL, I am drowsy...must be the meds--do any of you feel like that who are on progresterone or prometrium?

Donna,
When i was on prometrium it made me dizzy too, even my pharmasist told me when I picked up the prescription that i should take it at night because it will make me drowzy. Good luck to you , BFP is coming!!!

Hi All,

Not so good news from me... My ET is meant to be tomorrow Monday 16th but FSH levels are still too high to go ahead. My Dr will decide tomorrow morning whether to take a risk with ET or freeze all embries (its Day5 tomorrow) and do ET later. Although FSH is high, Im feeling ok.

Im really confused as I've been off work for 3 days and had bed rest for the past 4days with lots of fluids, like they told me to! I want to go ahead with ET no matter what, but concerned for my health at the end of the day.

I dont know what else to do???

Hi all,

I'm sorry to say that Friday my DH had a change of heart and freaked out about IVF. He had issues with it at first, meaning he was not to sure about the scientific route of it all...petri dish baby, etc. After lots of discussion and ups and downs he decided to do it. Then he decided no the night before my 3 day b/w and u/s and start stimms. I am totally devistated and needless to say....our marriage probably won't make it.

I just wanted to thank everyone for their support and be thankful you have love and support from your DH and families! I wish you all the best!

Snowwhite,
I think your husband just got cold feet and there has to be way to make him change his mind, there are reasons that he is probably not telling you about, you have to talk to him again. I just can not imagine a change of mind just a night before the BW and you were so excited to start. I know that marriages are hard I have been married for 9 years but there is a way to work around it. I realy hope that you guys can work it out and you can have your baby.

Hopeful,
I am sorry you hit the bump on your IVF journey, but if you can't do ET this time you can do FET, so everything is not that bad.

Hopeful - Happy Anniversary! I think it is today? Or maybe not with the time difference? I'm sorry about maybe having to postpone ET - but really honey they know best and if they think your health is at risk you should do as they advise. We can't have you too ill to carry your little ones! And you do have 9 embies right? - would they freeze them all under the circumstances? FET is alot less stressful and sometimes is more successful for ladies as all of the stimm meds are out of the system! I will keep everything crossed for you!

BWHD - Good luck for tomorrow - I'm really praying that they can get to that right ovary! How long ago was your last IVF - when they couldn't get to it? I really hope it has moved!!!! Good luck sweetie!

Snow White - I was so sorry to read your post. You really need to talk this through with DH. Have you considered a counsellor? This whole process is a strain on any marriage. You both need to work out what you really want, and what is most important to you. I don't think you should give up without seeing someone first. Big Hugs to you x

Vicky - welcome to the group - good luck with FET!!!!

Jes and Lisa - I really can't wait to hear those BFP'S confirmed!!!!!

Jackie - good luck with trigger and EC I hope they get lots of nice eggies!

Steph - I posted to you on your thread but I just wanted to say again how sorry I am. I really hope the tubal reversal brings you and Dh your little one. LOL.

Wishing all the 2ww lots of baby dust, all the EC'ers lots of eggs, all the ET'ers sticky vibes, all the stimmers lots of follies, all the down reggers lots of sleep and all those waiting to start lots of patience.

Hugs to all

Charlie: My last IVF was in OCt 07. I've lost over 20 lbs since then, hoping to shift the ovary.

Hopeful: Good to hear from you hon. I hope things go well with ET. You need to think about your health though. Dr. usually knows best. Rest up, and things will work out.

Snowwhite: I'm sorry to hear about DH's change of heart. Maybe he just needs some time to think it through. Maybe you guys could do some counseling and talk about it with a third person. Sometimes that helps a lot. Maybe he doesn't understand everything involved. I'm sure you guys can work through it. Good Luck hon.

Welcome Vicky and welcome to the FET world. I had one blast transferred and am waiting "patiently" for Tuesday test day.

JesJes, Lisa - Looking forward to hearing your final confirmation tomorrow. Sleep well.

BWHD - Best of luck to you tomorrow. Medical technology is moving quite fast in the IVF world and maybe you will have much better results to report this time.

It's encouraging to hear about people having some cramps and some bleeding because I am going NUTS over hear. One minute I think I am and the next I am positive I am not pregnant. At this point I've put it in God's hands and decided to wait until Tuesday.

This is a big week for a lot of us so keep the positive vibes going. . .

Good evening ladies hope you are all doing well and have had a lovely weekend 8) .

Just a couple of quick questions I am taking Buserelin at the mo and have found that if I have my injection in my right leg the injection site comes up like a blister have any of you found this or am I just weird?
Thought you guys were joking when you say how tired you feel on down reg, now I know shattered doesn't begin to cover it.

I also have 2 vials of Pregnyl and I haven't been told when I am supposed to take it or what it is can anybody help?

To all of those on 2ww hope it's not too hard to do it as I will be doing mine at the beginning of May.

Hope you all keep smiling, tomorrow is usually better than today.
me 30 DH 36.
