Hello All,
Soundds like everyone is doing ok - despite some negative results.
Sammy - I know that taking it easy is difficult. I too have spent the last 12 days taking it easy and it's been driving me nuts. all of the things I like to do are pretty energetic so I've just had to ignore them and spend lots of time warching awful daytime tv. I'm now due to test on 16th and I can't wait!!!!! Every twinge I get I think that af is on its way - but it hasn't shown up yet (thank goodness), mind you last time it showed up 2 days before test day so it's tomorrow I'll be really concerned.
Keep up the PMA everyone.
Love
Debbie

Hi Sammy & Debbie - I know that feeling of waiting around - TV is pathetic! I've had a few twinges - not sure if it's from my ovaries cos the nurse said that I'll feel a bit bloated cos they'll be filling full of fluid again - or I spose it could be all the poking that was going on last week! DH is taking me for a drive in the car to get me out of the house for a while and I think we're going out for something to eat tonight - we met in OZ 6 years ago tomorrow!!!! Take care of yourselves xxx

Hey Debbie and Amers...Hang in there with me, pretty soon we'll be on the other end of the phone hearing "yes it's POSITIVE, YOU'RE PREGNANT!!" it will all seem like the waiting never happened, God Bless, Love Sammy
Hello All,
I haven't had a good start to my morning. I know I shouldn't have but it did a hpt and surprise surprise it was -ive. I've also started to bleed slightly so I'm now convinced that this chance is over. This is exactly what happened last time on the same day so I'm certain. I know that some of you will say that it'snot over yet, some people get bleeding etc etc, but I know deep down that the news is not good. I feel sooooo down, I was really hopeful that this time it would work. There was nothing wrong with the embies so why didn't they implant???? I guess we will never know. At our last follow up appointment they couldn't give us any answers so why should they this time.
Hope that therest of you have some better news.
Love

Hi Debbie,
I am so sorry Debbie. But Don't loose hope. I know its hard and difficult to digest. I too was thinking the same. My embroys were graded A AND B thought the rest of my eggs didn't fertilize. Atleast be glad that your doctor is not giving up on you and there is still hope for a success. Like in mentioned in my earlier posts, I went to the drug store and bought a prenatal vitamin and started taking it.the main reason why the embiees don't implant is there is not enough progestone to support it and taking a prenatal might boost it a little bit.
I will be thinking of you. don't loose hope and maybe your bleeding is a good sign of +ve and don't trust the pregnancy test kit.
hope my +ve has given people hope, it really can happen
my good news is dampened by reading about your -ve debbie , i hoped we could go through the next 9 months together and im not sure yet that we wont so please dont you give up hope Your test is early and may not be sensitive enough the early one i used picked up 10 whatevers which is really sensitive. im not sure about the bleeding but i keep hearing about it not always being bad so keep your chin up only2 more days to go.
love kim

1st attempt at IVF
Hello All,
Well, the bleeding is still there - but very light. Last time was exactly like this - very light bleeding for a day then af started properly the next day. I know that I frequently read of people having some bleeding then find things are ok, but I'm really not at all optimistic. Have spent the day lying down watching tv and crying. I just feel so awful. Have told my Mum but haven't told dh yet as he is at work. I didn't want to tell him over the phone. I know he will be really disappointed too.
Not sure what we'll do now. We had always said that we'd have 3 attempts and this is our second, but I'm not so sure I can go through this again. Guess I might feel different in a couple of days.
Thanks for listening.
And big congrats to Kim.
Love

Congragulations Kim. atleast one more smiling face. Hope your remaining 9 months goes on smoothly.
Debbie, please don't loose hope. I exactly know how you feel and feel kind of upset to tell Dh. Thats exactly how I felt. But keep your spirits high. I know you will be down for a few days. But you will overcome this.
Atleast be great thta your doctor is not saying your case is a tough case-please see another doctor. So far we have done only 2 attempts and the doctor has already lost hope on us. Don't know what this new doctor from the same group is going to say.
Please don't loose hope on your self.
I did an early test yesterday, so did most of my crying then. Found out for sure at lunch time today, but already looking forward to June! The rational, pre-transfer me is returning......so keep at it Debbie. It is the hardest thing we will have to do (hopefully, god willing) and has the biggest reward.
Congrats Kimbo, it gives me hope
PS Debbie, this morning my biggest fear was failing next time...and then I realised I never expected it to work first time anyway! I am booking my next frozen cycle for June - I realsie I am fortunate to have 8 frosties

Hello All,
Thanks for your kind words. It does help knowing that someone out there knows how you feel. Dh has come home and I've told him the news. He is also very upset - but also says not to give up hope just yet. My head says that I should still wait until Wednesday to be sure, but I'm sure the result will be negative. At least this way it will be a REALLY nice surprise if it is positive and just what I expected if it is negative. Just have to get through another couple of nights to know for sure.
Lumi - sorry to read your news. I know I might sound pretty negative at the moment but it will get better. Big hug to you.
Thanks again to all.
Love
Debbie
