Hi Ladies- I have a ton of catching up to do, and updating on the list, which I might not get to until friday, which is when I will do personalas also.

Wish I had better news, but e2 doubled again. Honestly, I expected it at this point, so I will just continue to prick myself with lupron every night and go for bw on tuesday. RE thinks in 2-3 weeks I will get a full period and then I will suppress. Ugh, I am so frustrated but totally at the point where my spirit has turned to "I just don't give a crap," and I am wondering if I will ever make it to an FET.

Again, I will post personals and update the list by friday...busy day tomorrow.

hey ladies

katie katie if i could reach my arm from across the world, i would, Just to give u a hug. Gosh that is so so frustrating i can feel your pain. Just sucks heaps and heaps of pma to you.

keep up the faith everyone

[babydust2]

hi ladies,

Unfortunately i have bad news 2! Cycle was cancelled due to no response! According to RE my ovaries are 'hormone resistant'! Apparently, no more hormones for me! His advice to me is to do it on a normal cycle with just the one follicle that normally forms everymonth! That lowers my chances sooooo much, but according to him it is the only option apart from donor eggs.

katie, I am soo sorry for your bad news and was really hoping that you will have good news. I share the same disappointment with you. Please don't give up, it is not time for us to give up and i trully believe we will get there. What is BCP?

i really feel I should get a second opinion. My RE believes in merional and i really thing that if one protocol is not working, then try another. I will make an appointment with another Dr and start with acupunture too, to see if it will improve my chances!

[cheekyone]

hey girls

babydust so so sorry to you too for having a cancelled cycle it really does suck when that happens. I think you should get a second opionion too some clinics are just so stuck in their ways of doing things that sometimes a change is a good thing. And BCP stands for Birth Control Pill. All the best and keep up the pma

and all the rest of u ladies on the 2ww heaps of patience sticky dust

and to all the Bfp cause i know there are a few of you ladies woohoo is all i can say keep the Bfp rolling on in we have definately tipped the scales in a positive way

Keep the faith going

[marymeganB]

kind of random, but is anyone on progesterone or endometrin? I am bloated like a beached whale! I can't stand it. I'm not eating any differently since getting the BFP, I'm still exercising, and it's certainly too early for me to be showing, unless there are 4 or 5 in there. I constantly feel like I feel right before I'm about to start. Is this normal? Am I going crazy?

[tangela1016]

Whew!!!

It has taken me an hour to review all the posts from three days

dogz- you are proof the miracles happen everyday and God said that this was your time. When prayers go up....blessings come down.

All other ladies- You are in my daily thoughts as I'm so nervous about ET tomorrow I can bareley remember my name

AFM- I go for my FET tomorrow AM and will be on strict bedrest at least through Sunday. I will update on Monday to let you ladies know how transfer went. Today is a day of relaxation... I'm going to the salon, getting a massage and tonight I go for acupunture. Keep my in your prayers and thanks to whoever posted the scripture (Jeremiah 29:11) I LOVE IT!

Baby dust to all

Hi everyone -

How are you all doing today? I'm waiting to hear back from the nurse, I'm thinking that its a weird thing to still be swollen, & tender from stims and to be back on BCPs already. I mean dont I even get 1 day off? I'm dying from curiosity as to whether RE is pushing me for these back to back cycles because I'm a "difficult" case or becauses he believes what he told me yesterday - "that studies have shown enhanced fertility with back to back cycles"? I am soo confused at this point! I may post to ghost, he always makes it clearer.

babydust - I feel your pain, I'm right there with you! I would most definetely get a 2nd opinion! I completely agree with as far as if 1 protocol doesnt work for you, try another one. BCPs = birth control pills Keep us posted on your plans, I have a feeling a few of us will have to move to the Sept board. Unless someone makes a Sept / Oct one! -xoxo

cheeky - much thanks to you, my friend! Where are you at now? Are you going again straight away? Or are you you in a holding pattern? Yes, I am the most impatient woman, ever! he he - xoxo

Iam hopeful - thanks! I did the ovidrel sub-q in the abdomen. I'm still doing the Grow follie & Raise the E2 dances for you!! When is your next b/w & u/s? I hope they go better for you!! - hugs

faith - Its still early in your cycle! Have faith that the RE knows what to adjust! You're in my prayers! - hugs

ladybug - thanks! Dont worry, you'll get used to injections. I wouldnt say that they are fun, but tolerable. wishing you the best of luck with you ER!!

amandamae - thanks! fingers are crossed for your beta!!!

michele - You will suppress! It is just going to take a bit of time. I feel for your poor legs, from all thoses shots, though! I only had 14 days worth & I have bruises all over both legs! Hang in there a little longer! Ella's big day is almost here!! How is her teething going? did any break through yet?

[dogzrule]

marymegan - I am on progesterone in oil and estradiol pills. I feel uncomfortable and bloated every day, and the constipation! Ugh! I'm also feeling a lot of pulling and pressure in my uterus, which I know is normal and to be expected, but it is very disconcerting to feel all that!

babydust - I am so very sorry my dear. Keep reminding yourself, it only takes one! That one you will get from a normal cycle will do the trick!

tangela - Thank you so much for your kind words. We're in need of another miracle tomorrow for our 2nd sono. While I'm glad they are making me come in so much, it makes me nervous!

Michele - I'm not giving up on your suppression!!!!!!

I'm worried about Julie. We haven't heard a word from her!

[butterfly78]

Anissabug - I am so sorry for you and your DH. I will be praying for you. I'm grateful that you have FEs and have already talked with you husband about that process. There is a plan for your family so just try to be patient. I'll be thinking about you.

Amandamae - Have you heard?

[butterfly78]

Its a BFP for us. My HCG level was 223. YIPS! Please update my status. I can hardly believe it. I know nothing about being pregnant b/c i've never wanted to get my hopes up. Time for some education.

[gi]

Butterfly OMG!!!! Big Congrats that is fantastic news!!! I wish you a healthy 8 mths - you go and educate yourself girl cause you are Pregnant

Katie99 its great you can do back to back cycles they dont do them here but you must be exhausted!! Your doggies sound gorgous they have a great instinct to know when we are sad, during our m/c and j was crying our westie jumped up into his lap and licked away the tears... now how could you not smile after that.

Babydust2 sorry to hear you are also cancelled, it must be very frustrating, i would get a 2nd opinion to see if you can try a diff. protocol before leaping into using a single follie or donor.

Annisabug sorry to hear about your bfn its never easy but take your time to relax and recover xxx

Sportsmum Yeah you are PUPO!!! Congrats on the transfer - I feel sick thinking about my thaw!!!

Michele you also must be getting sick of been cancelled/delayed, you are fanastic mum and an inspiration on this site and keep everyone going here, you go and enjoy Ellas party and worry about tx after that.

AFM just home from Kerry today and fell asleep for 3 hrs!!! I am feeling queasy but assuming its the meds, my doggies our home from their "hols" at my mums house and the poor westie sulked for the 3 days he is in his element now by my side, as for the king charles he is anybody's as long as there is a biscuit going!!
