FET Oct./Nov. Cycle Buddies

[Lots of baby wishes]

Don't give into the HPT Michelle! The 2ww will be over soon!
I agree BaoBao how do we survive! We are strong women no matter how we react or handle a situation. I have many friends that have told me they would have given up by now! Good things are in the future for all of us!
Well our transfer is definitely on Thursday. Only 2 of the 6 embryos survived the thawing process thus we will do a Day 3 transfer. I was very disappointed as I was always told that 70-80% are the normal stats. I guess I only need 2 embryos....
It just makes you remember all of the pain, emotions, and heartache that got us to this point so it would be nice to have all 6 so we could do another FET if needed.

hello everyone,
i just wanted to let everyone know how much your positive thoughts mean to me. thank you so much. i don't have much hope for tomorrow and am already thinking about what to do next, but i wanted to thank everyone. i'll go back for my second blood test tomorrow ....
also, much baby dust to everyone on the 2ww, i'll keep my fingers crossed and hang in there for those who haven't started.

Evening everyone. Had a busy day today, i am thinking up jobs for me to do to keep my mind off the next 7 days. Why does it drag soooooo much?
Michellexx-i also have to do hpt then phone the clinic, no bloods done at all. If i get bfp (fingers crossed) then they just book me in for a scan 3 weeks later. Im not on pessaries this time, my clinic said it wasnt necessary for FET (im glad in a ay as when i had them for last fresh cycle i had loads of wind, hubby was not impressed with me farting all night!!!). I had 6 frozen so i am very grateful as some people dont get any. Still getting period pains, bit worse today and feel like crap. I dont feel very hopeful for a bfp at all. Im not going to test early this time, i tested 9dp3dt last time and got a bfn, i was devastated. Then on the day i was supposed to test, it was bfp! Please take my advice ladies, dont test before the test date given buy the clinic! They wouldnt say to wait 2 weeks otherwise, would they?
Hows everybody else doing on the 2ww? Anybody getting any symptoms?
Keep your chim up Pummalaemma, be strong. Thinking of you.
Good luck to everyone who have their ET soon, everything is crossed for BFP!

hello desparado and michelle and everyone else,
well, i got the news today and my my numbers were down to 8. so no baby this time. some times i wonder if it is ever going to happen. it is very hard for me to watch all these celebs getting pregnant, i don't even want to watch tv anymore, it's all about who got pregnant and how far along they are and a lot of them doing ivf. so it makes me wonder why it's not working out with me. i don't know. i guess i feel better this time than when i got my bfn for my last fresh cycle, since i only had one fet blast and somethink stuck at least in the beginning. now i am thinking about my next fresh cycle and i guess if that's not going to work out, we may try donor eggs. i don't know. it sort of helps me to look ahead at my options. not sure ... to get back to you michelle, you are so right with all the people out there who don't want any kids and have 4 or 5 and can't even care for them, why do they get pregnant and we don't. you are so right. well, i better go now, my brain is all fried today, i had a really busy day at work today, after i found out about the bfn i had to present two posters at a conference and stand there for two hours. i think i'll go home now and ... i was going to say cry, but i don't know if i have any tears left ... i guess i do, i feel like crying right now ...

Pummaleama--My heart goes out to you! Reading that even brought tears to my eyes as we all know how it feels. No words or actions will make you feel better! Get some rest and do something especially for you! Let us know what your next step is...will they let you go right into a fresh cycle....I think the waiting in b/t is the worst.
Desparodo--Any symptoms yet? You are on the countdown...keep yourself busy! And I agree with you about the HPT...they are so tempting but can be devasting and wrong, definitely not worth the $, time, or emotion.
Hope everyone else is doing well!

[desparado]

Hello everyone, how you all today? Im feeling knackered, weepy and fed up. 6 days to go 'til i do the hpt and im starting to feel really negative. Period pains really bad and backache getting worse, just feels like A/F is coming. Boobs really huge and sore too!! Feeling sick but i think thats in the mind!!! I got one of my items from ebay today which doesnt fit so im annoyed about that aswell! Moan, groan, blah, blah, Thats better now!
Michellexx-how are your eyes after last nights pride of britain awards??!! Bit moving to say the least eh?! Dont you think its too early to be getting pregancy symptoms? I havnt got a clue, does anyone else know if 8dpFET is too early for symptoms of pregnancy? How are you today? I cant wait for the weekend either. Ant n Dec and strictly come dancing!!!! Hows the wind? If its any consolation, ive had bad wind today too and im not even on the pessaries!!!! Have you got any symptoms?
Pummalaemma-im so so sorry for you and hubby. Words cannot express what you might be feeling at this time. Take the time you need to grieve and rest and come to terms with your terrible news. Then when youre ready, get back on that horse and get over the hurdles one at a time again. Sending loads of love your way sweetheart. Be strong. Itll be your turn next.
Lots of baby wishes-how are you today, everything goingto plan? Not sure if ive got symptoms of pregnancy or impending A/F? I should have had A/F yesterday but that doesnt really mean anything! the way my cycles are!!
Hope everyone else is ok. Sending loads of positive thoughts to everyone.

Hi everyone, the dreaded 2WW has begun. The actual ET was very surreal. I just can't believe that i could actually be pregnant with twins! I have to go back on the 19th for blood work, so we'll see. keeping everything crossed.

Pummalaemma - I'm so sorry to hear your news. I'm thinking of you. But we are here for you if you need anything.

Lots of baby wishes - Good luck today! I'm thinking about you.

Michellexx/desparado - when is your 2WW over? I'm thinking of you too.

I'm thinking of everyone actually.

[michellexx]

[Lots of baby wishes]

Hi Everyone! Thanks for all of your kind postings & thoughts! Everthing went well today and just like banana we are hoping that the 2 embies stick! Blood work is due on the 24th....13 days and counting!

I agree with you Banana, the whole transfer was very surreal. We began this process in July and cannot believe we finally did a transfer! The bedrest is difficult as I don't feel tired....but will definitely enjoy the time off from work on Friday!

Desparado & Michelle--Hange in there! The countdown is almost over for both of you !

Is anyone doing the progesterone oil IM inj in butt daily? My butt hurts so bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope everyone else is doing well!

[baobao]

Banana/Lots, congrats on the ET and hope your 2WW will go smoothly and finish with a BFP!

Pummalaemma, so sorry to hear about the bad news. I'm not sure what I say would make you feel better, just that my thoughts are with you and I hope you will stay strong and have faith in the next cycle.

Desparado/Michellexx, it's almost over now! So proud of you both for not succumbing to the evil HPT. Good luck for the BW and keep us posted.

Nothing new on my side, I am just hoping ET could be done sometime next week...

Hi everyone!!!

Only 3 days into my 2ww and I'm already going nuts. Desparado/Michellexx - are you guys experiencing any kind of symptoms? Please share? i don't really feel anything. My bloodwork date is 10/19.

Lots - My doctors did not require bed rest. Is that what your clinic suggest or are you doing it on your own?

Have a great weekend ladies!

Ana

[desparado]

Hiya everyone, how are you all tonight?
Banana-welcome to the 2ww, stay calm, keep busy, be strong and think positive, will those lil embies to stick! Dont know if im experiencing symptoms of pregnancy or not. I know i want to be, maybe its in my mind cos i want it so much. Ive got big sore boobs, swollen tummy, short fuse, headaches, period pains, backache and feeling sick!!! All symptoms of A/F. Yesterday was my due date but longest cycle is 34 days (tomorrow) so im hoping i get through the weekend without A/F raisning its ugly head! Think il be more positive then!
Lots-i wasnt told bed rest either but i was told to take it easy. Im off work at the mo as it is very stressful. I work with people who have drug/alcohol problems which is very difficult as you can all imagine (you can understand that one michellexx!). I was just told by my clinic not to do anything that i might later regret or to take unnecessary risks! Hope youre taking it easy though! Hope the butt is ok? Get hubby to massage it for you!!!!
Boa Boa-im sure next week will come soon enough for you and then youll be going out of your mind on this rollercoaster 2ww! Try and relax as much as you can now and think positive thoughts!
Michellexx-how are you today? not long now for you eh? Mondays the day! Im back at work on Monday so ill have to keep checking the forum to see what your result is. Will you post it as soon as you know? I have to test on Wednesday so just 2 days behind you! Any symptoms?
Pummalaemma-how are you feeling today?
Hope i havnt missed anyone out? Sorry if i have.
See you all soon, have a good weekend. X X X X X X X X X X
