May/June Cycle Buddies

[stressball]

Dear Heather, you went through a lot. My heart goes out for you.

Hi Marsxp, My blood test was last sunday and I got my periods on Wednesday. I got cramps but I just took two tylenol two times a day for two days. I bled fresh blood and the bleeding was less than regular periods. It am just spotting today. To make the story short, even my periods were different than regular.

Lots of love to everybody

Hey guys
I am back from a great trip with the family. Took my mind off of worrying for a little while. Only 13 more days until I am 12 complete weeks. This is an important milestone for me to get past. The time of m/c from last summer. I think that I will feel even better after this time. My big day is July 14th. I am waiting waiting. I did get my doppler and I have listened to the babies! It was so wonderful. Music to my little ears. I can't tell them apart but one of them had a h/b of 180!!! I was able to discern that one. I go in for my real OB appointment with the doc on the 17th of this month. All kinds of things happening this month!

Literatriz
I know how that feels to see that neg test. Hang in there as the blood test will show the real results to you. A girl that is on this board and went through FET with me in January at my clinic did a HPT just before she went to the RE for the blood test and it was neg. She stopped her meds that morning and she was so surprised when they called with her results!!! She is like 25 weeks pg. She keeps telling me those things are worthless. Keep your chin up girl.

L
when I did my FET in January it took a little more than a week-like ten to twelve days for me to get AF after stopping the meds.

hrobinson
WOW girl you have been through the mill with that whole endo thing. I am so sorry to hear that. I hope that they can fingure out a solution for that for you. That is horrible. I can't believe all that you have been through with it. I am so sorry to hear about your BFN. I really am. i was pulling for you......I wish you luck when you decide to move forward.

Sanya
Sorry to hear that you got a BFN. That is horrible. I really hate that feeling. It is not good. Just plain sucks. It really does. It take time to heal from that. Keep moving forward girl!

I am attempting my second IVF and I was wondering how many of you were successful on the first and second round of IVF? This will be my last try and I want to be positive but I also don't want to get my hopes up.

Lisa

Congratulations to all you expecting moms.

To all the women who need to wait another month for their miracle I cry with you.

[hrobinson]

Lisa- I was successful on my first attempt, but not successful on my second attempt. Just stay positive.

Every cycle is different. It really is. I got a BFP and then m/c with my first and now I am 10 weeks pg with twins and everything is going well. My second fresh cycle. It is true. Keep your chin up!!!!

Sophie
I was thinking about you tonight and I am hoping that things are going well for you.

Hello guys,

A quick note for me because I really have to work today. Sorry I've been MIA, but I slowly want to wane myself from this forum. I told myself that I'd stop posting the list after Literatriz gets her results, as she is the last May-June 2wwer. However, I have a thought for you every day, you beautiful ladies! There's also the fact that I've spent the whole long weekend (Canada Day) painting and painting and moving stuff around, and so on! And sewing new curtains for the bedroom! I can't suffer to see a paint roller now! Ugh! And to top all that, I have a baaaaaad urinary tract infection! Yippppeeeee! Fortunately, I started antibiotics and painkillers yesterday evening and they're starting to work. I stopped yodeling when I pee! lol! Mind you, I've been peeing bright orange since this morning (painkillers do that), but I prefer that to pain!

AAAAAND MY BOUDOIR LOOKS FAN-TAS-TIC! :D:D:D:D:D I'm SO happy! Now if I can feel better physically and stop running around the house organizing/cleaning/designing stuff, I'll actually spend some time in it!

As for the other office, namely, the one at the hospital (lol, thanks gbnut and hrobinson for checking on that one!)... guess what? Of course! Still waiting! But I should sign my contract this week and officially be nominated... maybe that will accelerate things.... we'll see. I'm supposed to go to that other hospital (part of the same big hospital though) with my boss tomorrow and meet the head nurses of the three departments I'll cover, plus maaaaaaaybe see my office. I'll believe it when I see it!

hrobinson: I'm glad that you're keeping your chin up sweetie, and I'm not surprised. Again, I'm deeply sorry that your clinic treated you so badly. *hugs* Keep us posted my darling, and I'm thinking of you.

Literatriz: good luck for your blood test today! Don't despair! Tanya is right; HTPs are NOT foolproof and you did it soon, too. Wait until the blood test!

TansRN: SO NICE of you to think of me! I think of you, too... it would have been particularly nice to go through a pregnancy with you, and My2LnT, and Jovigal... we get along so well! Ah, well, it was just not the right time. Eyes on the prize! I'm rooting for you sweetie, and I'm really, really looking forward to hearing you make that big sigh of relief when you pass that nasty milestone! How is the ms my sweet?

mommytobe: HA! TWINS! That's AWESOME my dear! CONGRATULATIONS! I'm really happy for you, especially that it was your first IVF!

lisa: good luck for your second IVF. Alas, I got BFNs on both my IVF cycles. Remember that each case is different, though, and each cycle is a new start. Sending lots of baby dust your way!

marsxp: thanks for checking in sweetie! *hugs* I started AF on June 12th... and I was STILL spotting yesterday! It seems to have stopped now, PHEW, but I had the exact same spotting as you. It's perfectly normal (but annoying!!!!!), given that your lining was sooooo thick because of the hormones you took. Takes time to clear all that.

Okay ladies! Time for me to start working! I'll post the list in a minute.

Take care!

Sophie

[Literatriz]

Hi all,
Thank you all for your words. They are more than needed now that I cry over a BFN from my blood test. The embies were transfered on June 21 and today is already July 3rd...so the two weeks are gone and I need to restablish some priorities. Life goes in suspension. My doctor is at a Congress in Paris...he emailed me from there. He is awsome. I am looking forward to move on and maybe try again as soon as possible. My husband was so kind and compassionate that it makes me want to give him the child he has wanted for so long. But, it will not be this time.
I would love to keep in touch with you...how does it work? I am grateful to the May/June thread but I guess we will gather somewhere else...
I can't do personals - sorry.
But, as PMApsy said before, it is not worth to drawn in self-blame. Life goes on. Pruning brings growth. I guess God prunned my hopes this morning.
Love, Literatriz

Dear Literatriz,

I’m so sorry to hear about your BFN. I’m crying with you I know the pain you are feeling and please give yourself some time to heal. We can’t be expected to be “superwoman”. I wish you the best of luck and really hope that your turn is next. Take care *HUGS*

[PMApsy]

Dear Literatriz,

I am very sorry to learn the news of your BFN. Your husband must be quite devastated given his ever-present enthusiasm, and of course it is tough news for you as well. *Hugs* I understand the feeling... being so disappointed that it didn't work, wondering if it will ever work and yet feeling that strong readiness to become a mother. But do keep this in mind; even if the chances are slim, if it were completely impossible for you to have babies, they would not let you try. And you've still got many sleeping beauties to do those trials sweetie.

From the bottom of my heart, I wish you good luck, and take care of yourself.

Sophie

Dearest Tanya,

I am happy that things are going well for you. You can be sure I'll check the pregnant thread from time to time to have news, because I, too, wish you well! Thank you for your kind words. As I said before, I'll cycle without the forum for my FET in August. But when I get the results, you can be sure I'll share them and let you know.

Tanya, and all of you dearest ladies, I wish you an amazing summer! Remember to take some "me" time each day and think to stop and smell the flowers as often as you can! Good luck in your future endeavors, whether they are work, couple, fun, or baby related!

Take care, and goodbye! With much love,

Sophie who'll miss you!
