Sweetpea did you give in to the HPT this morning??   Lulu glad you are doing mostly ok, and I think what you've been it's pretty normal to just be "mostly ok". The overwhelming feeling of sadness happens to alot of us in different ways, so we know how you feel. Hope catching up on work will keep your mind busy. HT ugh sorry your PCOC is being so difficult!!! Faith yaye for drugs! You are a couple of weeks away from starting too aren't you? DH and I both had that antibiotic with our IVF aswell - think it's pretty standard now. I also take a 5 day course of antibiotics with my colorado protocol for transfers  Man this time round my bbs are already hurting - and have been since just before I started the progesterone so wondering if this time it's from all the added hormones from one cycle straight to the other

HT i know what you feel like with that cycle time. Mine does that from time to time and no one every told me what could cause it. Now i know its PCOS. My longest is 62days.... Hang in there! Faith, glad it all went well. Yip it is an interesting antibiotic aye! Exiciting not long now! Lulu, glad to hear your ok. It will take time hun and you can cry as much as you like. Take one day at a time xxx AFM - So i did HPT and it is .... not sure. At first, right its negative and thats it done. Then i was sure i could see a faint 2nd line. No, just my eyes playing tricks on me, walk away. When i came back about 5min later i was sure it was there but not sure if it is just me wanting to see a line or not. Haven't told DH that i have done one and think i will wait for Fridays bloods and wont test again..... i feel more confused now and think i am too scared to think it might be positive. Bring on Friday!

Oh sweetpea sounding positive! It's still only early and if you are using FRER's it could be picking up the smallest amount of HCG (I've had them pick up a level of 8 before!!!). If it were me, and cause I'm weak LOL I'd do another tomorrow morning cause if today was anything, it would be a little easier to tell tomorrow

Big hugs Lulu. It seems like life just moves on and forgets that you are dealing with one of the hardest things you will ever need to face. Distractions can be good, even when it is work. xx OMG Sweetpea... I'm with Storm too, I would be doing another sneaky one before testing lol. Come on bubbas, stick stick stick... we are all rooting for you (snigger... never have understood why the American's use that term). 62 bloody days sweetpea... holy heck! Compulsive panty checking for that long would totally do my head in lol. Won't be long Faith... wahoo. Take care all :-)

Sweetpea, def see how you feel in the morning have you been symptom spotting with anything happening that makes you wonder??? If it is positive you would be 4 weeks tomorrow I use this website to determine dates from FET's http://www.yourivfjourney.com/baby-calculators-for-pregnancy/ivf-and-fet-due-date-calculator/ I'm feeling pretty normal today thanks sweetpea.... let's see how long that lasts haha

Yes HT, that was one looooonnnnnnnggggggg cycle!
Somethings storm have made me wonder. One is smell. my son had some crackers yesterday and afterwards i made him go brush his teeth as i couldn't deal with this breath but he is also not 100% well so not sure if it was that. I'm trying not too think too much into things like that though
Thanks for the website, ill have a look at it.

Babyshrimp, thanks I liked the scan part of the IVF was great to feel like the injections were leading to something. Good luck with it all. Faith, no sorry i haven't but i have had it for my knee before which worked really well. Will be interesting to hear how you go with it

Hi everyone! I'm still lurking in the background. Trying to keep up with everyone's news. Fingers crossed for you all. Just a quick question just got home and have got apt card for my Hysteroscopy which is early November. So hopefully we would start a cycle after that all going well. Does Wellington close over Christmas just wondering if we will squeeze a cycle in or not. Apparently having a Hysteroscopy can be like having a startching and improve chances of implantation so don't want to miss that opp! As always sending you all lots of love and luck!!

Haha Storm. It's terrible. I forgot a progesterone tablet don't know when as I take it each night after brushing my teeth. Hoping it's not a big deal. Had some brown cm for the last few days so worried that it's started cause I missed a pill.

Yay for the app Kiwi, will be good for you to have something to move towards and that is only next month Jo, Welcome to the group. Yes you will learn a lot on here from the ladies, they have helped me out more than the nurses sometimes Yes the wait is terrible. Is this for your first child? AFM, i didn't take a HPT this morning. I decided i will let it be and wait for tomorrow (which i wish was today). I couldn't bring myself to do one and glad i didn't have one at home or i think i would have caved. Bloods tomorrow.....

Hi kiwi, yes Wellington does close down over Christmas I cant remember their stand down date but last December I had egg collection around the 7th dec if all had gone well I would have had transfer around the 13th??The dr's are away but they told me nurses are still around so if it had of worked out and I was pregnant there still would have been a nurse I could call anytime and still have the weekly bloods etc. I don't know much about the hysteroscopy so not sure if date wise you might squeeze in or not?? Good luck for it!!
Hope you doing ok Rosey?
Good luck storm a s sweetpea hope the TWW isn't too hard for you both 😊

Oh sweetpea good on you! You're way stronger than I am - probably because I tend to buy the 3 packs of the HPT's haha So exciting there is only one more day to find out! Ugh wish I could fast forward a week! Kiwigirl good luck with the start of your IVF cycle! I've had two hysteroscopies and both times the doc had done a uterine scratch which is supposed to help implantation (obv didn't for me but it has had a lot of success from what I know) Jo welcome. Def a world of knowledge on this forum. I'm not sure that there is anyone here in Invercargill (could be wrong though) so not sure on your acupuncture sorry. That's great you can do a private round first though. Thanks Missy!! Hope everything is ticking along nicely for you
