Just a quick hello to you all.
I now have no pg signs what so ever (on day 9). I dont feel nauseous or dizzy. My boobs hurt a bit but they always do before af. Someone told me your nipples darken and but mine haven't, and I can't really say that my niplles are sore just my boobs.
We are all as bad as each other with our paranoia and checking out any signs we may have. I am soooooo knicker watching (am weeing for England due to the increased water intake as well).
Keep on having vivid dreams ( Belb - your joey one was so sweet ... any kualas (sp?) featured yet?).
Miracle - good luck for tomorrow. I so hope your baby dreams come true this time round.
Kathryn - my clinic told me to count day of et as Day 1 - that means day 14 is Sat 13th. IS THIS RIGHT GUYS????? I DONT WANT TO TEST A DAY EARLY AND NOT GET A CORRECT RESULT?
I also tried to see if I could have a blood test done at the clinic and they said they dont do them only hpt's. Bugger, really thought I could test earlier.
Angelina - hope ec and et went OK. Let us know as I am thinking of you, and have my fingers crossed that you have some little embies.
Susan - - I think your scan is tomorrow. Fingers crossed those follicles have grown.
TO ALL THE OTHERS TESTING THIS WEEK. HERE'S TO BIG FAT POSITIVES. I hope you are all surviving.
ReganKate - accept all your symptoms as positive - and enjoy (you see I can say it but I'm not really doing it!!!!!).
BYE FOR NOW

Hey gals,

The 2ww is tough isn't it??, I'm day nine for me (easy for me to work out, I had embie transfer on the 1st, so today being the 9th of March, I am on day nine!!!), I felt really tired last night, but then I'm always tired on Monday nights!..I've started knicker checking and continue to have wierd dreams (last nights featured no native flora or fauna, but a pipe band, a friends father dying and the buying of a beautiful new Christmas tree)..my dh just thinks I'm off the planet when I wake up to tell him about my dreams!

Lou, keep positive please!!..When I had my positive last cycle I was CONVINCED I was getting af, I had ALL of my classic signs, then tested positive..It aint over 'till its over!

Miracle, keep positive too please, we want lots of BFP's for this group! That's really lovely that you've bought your nurse a gift. I'm good at baby gifts, just can't do baby showers (important to know your limits I say!!)

Jane, I think you are a day ahead of me?? (get terribly confused by the UK time difference!!), I'm with you, feel entirely normal, though keep checking my boobs for sensitivity etc, thus far nothing..hmmmmm, is easy to get inpatient at this time isn't it??..You're spot on with your calculations re. testing, my clinic counts the day of et as day one, then you test on day fourteen. Good luck!!! :D

ReganKate- I'm a stressor too, and it is easy for us all to say stress less, but its quite bloody hard really!!..you'll get there ReganKate. No af pains can be a great sign, I've learnt from this site that every woman and her expereinces are soooooo different, lots of PMA to you! :D

Kathryn - Good luck for your test next week, we're testing on the same day, will be lovely to get some BFP's!!!..The constant peeing is a good sign...PMA PMA PMA PMA!

To anyone I've forgotten I'm sorry, PMA and babydust to all!
Belinda :D

Hi FCBs,

Angelina, I hope EC went well today.

Miracle, good luck for 1pm your time. It will be 8pm CET so I'll send some PMA just before :)


Hoping everyone's feeling positive and happy. I swear a 2ww can't possibly last this long. My last one in January wasn't like this at all, mind you AF arrived on Day 10 of it tho'.

love
Debra.

Hi everyone,

hope you're not too stressed out, i've got my fingers & toes crossed for you all, god the 2ww seems like a life time away but it's nearly here for you all.
I'm doing ok we're on our 2nd 2ww to see if theres a heart beat so we're feeling a bit stressed. I've had period like pains too & they were like that before i did my test. Ive been on the phone to the clinic about it & they said it's quite normal to get them. My nipples are really tender & i'm feeling tired too. i just hope these are good signs. I've put on loads of weight i think it's the pessaries they make my tummy feel awful. does anyone else feel like this on them.

sending you all the luck in the world, Traci hope you've got that candle burning. lots &lots of baby dust :D :D :D :D :D

Hi All


Well I had egg collection yesterday. It was a little painful on my left side but I cant really remember much about it to be honest. I just got the call from the clinic to say of the 16 eggs retrieved 14 have fertilised so its ET tomorrow! Good luck to all those due to test very soon.

Love A

ps they said i probably didnt have an infection but the changes 'donw below' !!! were due to all the hormones.

Hi all,
Hope you all had fun in the chat room last night. Was going to join in but dh came back from Italy after 5days so was in need of a few hugs!
Sophie Jane ... to be honest I have no real idea when I should be testing! My clinic is a bit vague... or I wasn't listening properly. They just said to test 14 days later and I just said the sunday. I think it should be the sat and I should test with you really but I still won't test until Monday cos of dh away again! :( It all seems too long to wait!
Well done Angelina on all those eggs. Hope et goes well tomorrow. :D
MIRACLE... GOOD LUCK TODAY!!!++++++++++++++++
DEBRA.....GOOD LUCK TOMORROW!!!++++++++++++++

When dh is away at the w/end my mum is coming down to stay... thankfully. I shall be in such a state waiting for hpt I will need her to stop me running off into the loo with my kit to test early!!
Have a good day all. And don't forget all those af symptoms could also be a sign of a bfp too!! Relax and look after yourselves. :wink:
Love and babydust

Congratulations to Miracle (I've posted on your thread). So Debra keep on bringing those positives to our thread. Wish you all the best for Thursday. Some others have said tomorrow which is Wed for me, but I think it is Thursday you test.
Hope all your dreams come true. BFP for you I can feel it.

Angelina - 14 fertilised is fantastic. I had 12 fertilise and 8 divided/graded very well so managed to get 6 frozen as well. So I am sure you are going to have a bumper crop. You will be sore with them removing that nu,mber of eggs. I couldnt do much for about a week. Only started going out after about 5 days as my tummy stll hurt so much. Plus I had to wee every 5 minutes or else I was in agony.
Good luck for et tomorrow. Let us know how it goes. Remember take it easy. Lay on the sofa and let dh look after you. I'm glad the infection scare was nothing to worry about!! Did you get the yoghurt out or not??

I am struggling so much. 4 1/2 days to go. I do not have any pregnancy signs at all, just a small twinge in my belly.
So I hope the rest of you are doing OK and doing better than me. Kathryn/ Loopy/ BelB/ ReganKate / July Ann - lets all laugh at the nightmare of this 2ww (or else I'm sure we will all cry).
A FEW MORE DAYS WONT HARM US ..... THE POSITIVE RESULT WILL BE ALL THE MORE ENJOYABLE BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN MADE TO WAIT ....... WE'VE WAITED THIS LONG ALREADY ...... LETS TREAT OURSELVES TO SOME CLOTHES/SHOES FOR BEING SO PATIENT ..... MIGHT EVEN BOOK A HOLIDAY.

Susan - I hope all is well with you. Keep us posted on the scans.

(For those in England and Eastender addicts - did you see Nana Moons flickering eyelid ... was that creepy or wot?)

Good luck to all of you.

hi guys,
Sorry for that hasty message but i was just so "not on earth" that i did not know what to do.Well,i have to go for a blood test on thursday to make sure that the hcg is increasing.....right now the hcg is normal ...so lets hope its not ectopic.....I bet god thinks i am a begger.....i just keep praying and asking one thing after the other-----after i got my results,i asked for everyone's result to be positive too and prayed again for u all---then i begged for the hcg results to be normal....-i don't think it's too much to ask for,is it???? :lol:

loopy i don't know the numeric figure for the levels but she just told me they look normal.....Thanku all for ur wishes.....Debra what time will u post ur's on thursday??...i will be loggin in all day to check and then start praying for the next one in que....jane, just a few more days and then the wait will be over!!!!Sending a big fat ++++ to everyone on 2ww!!!

Luv,

Hi FCB'ers,
Am very excited to hear Miracles news!!, thats truly fab, am very keen to hear a BFP from Debra as well!
Day 10 for me today (double figures!!!!), still feel quite normal to be honest, am thirsty all the time, but we've had 36 degree days again, so is really hot and am drinking STACKS of water!
Angelina, that's a fantastic number, is great to get some frosties, not that you'll need them, and thats great re. the no infection, thrush is a bloody curse, I say avoid it at all costs!
Sophie-Jane, sounds like we've at the same point in terms of days and symptoms (or lack thereof), we will get through this with positives though, we need to keep positive..PMA OK? :D
Loopy, am quite convinced that you're pregnant, baby dust and PMA to you!
ReganKate, when do yout test? I think we've got a bumper of tests coming up, I'm thinking you're around the same time as me (Monday of next week?????)
Take care gals
Belinda :D
