May 05 - 2ww

[Sher8]

Thanks, I am sure the emotions run wild during this 2ww. I am feeling positive for myself and all the others that are going though this journey.

[NickiMark]

Good on ya girl. You stay that way too, I'll be joining you by the end of the week.

[Susie]

I've had a total change round in my attitude. I'm now convinced that my result will be negative, all just because when I woke today my boobs weren't as sore as yesterday!
I'm too stressed to work now, so have got an appt at the docs tomorrow and am gonna get signed off sick for 2 weeks. 1 week while I wait for the result and one week til I get over the result!
My clinic said that with the pessaries I wont bleed even if I'm not pg. Is this true? Does no-one bleed?
7 long days to go. I should've gone on holiday for the 2ww, coz holidays go dead fast, and this is the longest 2 weeks ever. I so dont remember the last 2ww being this long.
Nicki - You'll be on this board for what seems like an eternity, so dont start on it now, I so wish I could get off, wait and enjoy every stage. I enjoyed moving onto this board and didnt read posts before I was on it, coz I wanted to wait so I knew exactly how people were feeling.
Anyway good luck to all testing this week

Hey Susie ... Sorry you're having a bad day. Your advice to Nicola is perfect ! If you read the paper with the pessaries it says they could bring your AF early, or delay it. I suppose everyone's different. I bled on both previous cycles, a couple of days before test day.

You're more than halfway through now Susie. Use this next week to destress and pamper yourself a little.

Hi Ladies
Another week starts!
Feeling ok in myself today - no real symptoms so not sure if its a good or bad sign. Hope you're all doing well and ploughing through the 2ww.
Sand how did your sunday lunch go with DF?
Had a lovely afternoon playing snap with my 4yr old neice.

Hi Eskavon ... There was a change of plan. Apparently there was important football action on tv ?!? Anyway, I'd had my treat on Sat night - a lovely curry from our local Indian - so I wasn't really fussed.

Glad you had a good snappy afternoon. Sounds like it was fun !

I've a DVD to watch this afternoon. We hired it yesterday - can't remember what's it called .... my memory is non existent ! Robert Redford, Helen Mirren ... ???? If it's any good, I'll let you know !!

Hi ladies

thank you so much for all the wonderful sweet thoughts and wishes

I think I would have loved the 2ww in Barcelona with 21 degrees and yuumy food Nice to be home though, bank holiday here today so collapsed on sofas with all 4 dogs (actually I kicked the biggest one on the carpet to make space).

Nothing really to report, had sore boobs for the last week anyway, and my belly is distended as I have an enlarged uterus so it always feels a bit swollen "down there". Mum has been sweet, she rang today to make sure I was resting, and to reassure us that if we have to try again she will help us, she is such a darling, I thank God for her. I don't kmnow why but it all seems so unreal, I guess that's the thing with donor eggs as you are not involved in that bit, then woosh suddenly you have 3 embies in residence

I am very impatient, so I think these 2 weeks are going to be murder, I'll try some visualisations... my hardest thing is trying to keep still and rest, Sand you are such a hero for being so strict

Sher- you had ET the same day as me...R U testing about the same too ??I test on 26th, which is dead early. Have to do blood but probably wait for result at least 2 days - seems a bit silly to me I'll need to find a way round that But George said I could do a hpt too, but might be a bit early, all sounds a bit confusing to me.

Love your duvet Eskavon, sounds really to die for

Love to you all, thank you for being there, I need you all so much now, this is so different from what we've been through before

Love and kisses

To you all

Firstly I'm sorry this is such a cheat including you all, but I've been away and there's so much to catch up on

Welcome Big J and Sher to the 2ww - may it go as quickly and positively as possible for you both.

Susie, I'm sorry you had an off day - maybe it's those pregnancy hormones playing with you!!

Sandra, I hope that you are feeling ok - loss of memory they do say is a good sign

To everyone I hope that you are coping with the different stages of the 2ww and everything is going ok.

PMA and hugs to you

Little P

Glad you're home safe and sound BigJ (and LP !). I'm envious of your time in Barcelona ... could do with some warm weather around here ... it's been sunny, but not really warm... Good that baby embies are nice and snuggled by now, after all their sight seeing !!

Take it easy ..

Hi all! I talked to my doctor's office last week and they said I could come in TODAY for my blood test and then just retest on Wednesday. I went early this morning and now I am just waiting on the results..... I hope & pray I get ...... I started having anxiety attacks last night and could not sleep. I will fill everyone in when I find out. I am dying of anticipation.

[Sand]

Mil ... You are so naughty !!! Everything crossed for you !!

[Mil]

I really wasn't trying to be naughty. I originally scheduled my blood test on the day that I did my transfer and I was not sure when to schedule it so I just picked a day. So the next time I talked to my nurse she said I didn't have to wait that long and could come in on Monday. So I surely didn't want to make myself suffer the excruciating wait any longer than I had too. I also cheated and took a HPT yesterday... I know shame on me. But it was positive...... So my fingers are crossed.

[Susie]

Mil I'm all excited for you, how long til you get the results?

[Mil]

Susie:
They said early afternoon. So probably 4 long hours. I hope sooner. I can't do any work. My mind just won't function.
