April/May Cycle Buddies!

Ester - im so sorry i know how it feels.
after having my 5 fresh ivf cycles all BFN i started to think that maybe im one of those women where ovarian stimulation affects endometrium receptivity, and that maybe a frozen cycle will work better....
i don't know, but maybe u can ask ur RE about it.
take care u and DH and i'll be praying for u. (((HUGS)))

Moorebaby, my heart is breaking with you. Have you looked into immune issues? I've been doing lots of research on it and it looks promising. Just with all of those BFNs it looks like there might be something that is being overlooked.

What are your next steps?
Indigo.

Ester (moorebaby)- I am SO sorry my friend! I wish I could say or do something to take the pain away! I've been there, we've all been there. It's hard. My last cycle (5th) it was just like you said it, perfect, it was our first time triying a 5dt and with 2 perfect blasts it looked realy, really promising...but unfortunatelly I got a BFN again. But life goes on and good things are coming! we both have DH's that love us deeply and care for us and this is all that matters! have this in mind and be positive with faith, you have the basic ingredients for a BFP! SOON! I am looking forward to my first FET attempt in a couble of weeks and I am feeling like this is going to be our miracle one! (I always feel that otherwise I'll go mad! ) Do you have any frosties to try FET? If not its ok, I am just asking...they say some women respond better in FET than in fresh cycle and I am crossing my fingers I am one of those lucky ones! I am glad you already have made plans for your next cycle in July! who knows! maybe no.6 is lucky for us! Keep up that PMA and IT will happen my friend! I know it! Be strong and fave faith! you deserve to be a mommy and you will be!! SOON! Great plans for your vacations! Enjoy to the max the time with your DH and family. My prayers and thoughts are with you! ((hugs)) xxx


Heather- I am SO sorry for you too my friend! These things sucks big time! My heart aches for you....and I am sorry you have to go through this alone. You are a star! I am proud of you! Glad your DH is coming home! Take some time for your selves to grieve and plan your next steps. ...and hey! don't say that about the age and being old! I am turning 38 too in June and feeling old is the last thing I feel! Don't be discouraged honey! Things will work for you next time! Have faith! ((hugs)) xxx

Sunshine- about he Royal wedding ...I had arragne for 2 of my girlfriends to come over my place to watch it...I even made english tea, shepards pie (very english) and cup cakes for us to have to honour this historical day. Btw I loved the dress! I found it very elegant, classy and appropriate for the occassion Good for them! Cheers!

Dallas- With all those embies honey, the odds of my making it to day 5 are in your favour! Relax! I wish you all the best in tommorrow's ET!

Lily- I am sorry your cycle got cancelled honey! But I am sure June will bring you yor BFP! Good luck!

Nwquiz- Keep up that PMA!! Sorry I've been MIA but I had you girls in my thoughts! and in my heart for sure!

Rio- Hi there friend! I will post a my puppy's pics next time! Our puppy's name is HAPPY and Oh! bo! is she Happy!!

Kerri- I wish you all the best in your new cycle dear!

I am sorry If I left anyone behind! my thoughts and prayers are with all of you ladies on the board! ((hugs))

AFM- I've a busy week but it was a good week! Easter Monday I woke up with a nice surprise from my DH... we went for 2 days in a nice hotel by the sea for some clarity and get ready with positive thoughts and vibes for our upcoming FET. It was a nice surpise from my DH we took our puppy "HAPPY" to the vet for her shots and she is healthy as a baby! We are so happy to have her! and she looks so crazy happy to find us! We have booked our tickets to London for end of next month (23-20 June) for the christening of our goddaughter...my DH told me to book them anyway, and if we get a BFP end of May I just going to stay here. We have a wedding of one of my DH's cousins in London end of May (28th) but there I definatelly can't go...I am going to be waiting for my beta results around that date so decided is best not to travel. So I am getting the news alone this time .....Yesterday I have arrange for an English luncheon for 2 of my girlfriends that came over to watch the royal wedding and we had a great girls time! In afernoon we went to one of our friends house for a gathering and kids to play (they all have kids...) a friend of ours who leaves in Greece came for the easter holidays and we went to see him there too. Last night we were invited at my best friend's place for BBQ and chill out.... Today I made Lasagnia and took them to my MIL and we had lunch there...I offered to make lunch b/c she had a really bad week with a friend of hers passed away and I so I gave her the day off to make lunch... Tonight (in about 10 minutes...) we are going to my cousin for dinner...she leaves 5 min from my house...and she is one of my closest cousins...Tomorrow we are having lunch at my parents (the usuall sunday family BBQ ) and I am waiting for my AF to come any day now, tommorrow or Monday has to be here so I can start my pills and patched for my FET!!!! Yay!!! Will someone through a little AF dance for me?

Good night everybody! Baby dust to us all!!!! and may God gives us patience and strength to get through this IVF rollercoster!!

Anton - Oh dear Anton, long time!
it is always a pleasure to read ur AFMs
you are officially the PMA GIRL
i will do the AF dance for you (sorry i dont know how to attach animations but i will be doing it right here in my bedroom )
it's funny how u made the english tea and cakes for ur friends in the wedding day
im so excited for ur FET cycle, im sure it's gonna be urs since u never tried an FET cycle before.
hopr u r enjoying ur diner with ur cousin.

[Lauren1171]

Fruit - I think I am in the situation too of the stims not working for me I have no more insurance coverage, but I have 5 frozen embryos. I am thinking about getting a loan to pay for a FET, or trying to find new insurance. I totally think my endometrium does not respond to the stimulation.


Anton - Have you posted a pic of Happy?

[Wishingandhoping]

Faithful- Congrats on being PUPO! Rest and let those embies stick

Ester- My heart is still breaking for you. Thanks for keeping up with the list. My beta is scheduled for 5/9.

Anton- love that PMA!!! I can't wait to see a picture of Happy! We have 2 dogs- a 10 year old and a 1 year old. I can't imagine life without my dogs!

AFM- I'm now 4dp5dt. The 2ww is killing me. I POAS'd last night. Still showing the trigger. I've never tested to see when the trigger is out before. I'm hoping it's out soon! I'm very crampy which makes me nervous, but no bleeding. Last cycle I started spotting 5dp5dt. The clinic told me not to worry, but I wonder if my progesterone and estrogen were too low. I asked the RE and he didn't want to change my PIO or add estrogen this cycle. He just said if I spot I should call and go in to have levels checked....but wouldn't that be too late
