Trouble - Well done on your weight loss, you are off to a great start

End of the month will fly by and we need some more BFP's to add to the list....

How many frozen embies do you have trouble?

Hi to everyone else xx

hi lisaloo - we have 1 embyo left - was 8 cell when frozen and last time got put back at 12 days.

If doesnt work we will look to do stim and hoping that if we have to do it that by being healthier both of us means more might fertilise. I have given up coffee and almost given up coffee and now on green tea and chinese jasmine tea which I really enjoy. Aiming to lose another 6 kg or so by the time we doa stim cycle so hoping that only puts me in middle of healthy range for BMI etc through WW.

have a good night all.
Yeah I am being healthy at the moment and feeling better - off shortly to the gym and yoga class. Have gym 2 min down road which makes a difference as well.

I dont mind pecessaries from first time.

We both are feeling a lot more relaxed things and trying not to stress. What will be will be. If we have to do another stim cycle it went well previously so will hope for the best.

I would just love the embies that we will prob collected from stim cycle to go to blasty since last time we only got 3 embryos.

Hi everyone,
thank you so much for that warm welcome. I think I've come to the right place

Thanks to everyone for the advice on success rates, turnes out you were all spot on!

Hi Tiff8ny - I'm only on my 1st cycle so I can't really offer to much solid advice, but I'm on day 7 of gonal F and also started cerotide thismorning so I'll have a go. I deffinately experienced light AF-style cramping and a full, bloated feeling, but havn't had any signs of blood at all. If I were you, I'd just ring my nurse, even just for peace of mind. Better safe than sorry eh?

Rooella - If you could see my face, you'd notice its green with envy. Can't wait to be at the stage you're at. Must be rip-your-hair-out nerve wracking though Sending heaps nof sticky baby dust your way

Have a great day all you lovelies, keep fingers crossed,and hopes high

How are you doing Rooella? Do you do a HPT just before your blood test to give you any clues? I bet the 2ww is awful, every minute I would be thinking am i? arent i?

Yes I rang my nurse cause I have light bleeding as well. She said thats all normal, I could even get a heavy bleed she said. So that was a relief as I was getting a lil anxious! Today I am really starting to feel the drugs kick in, im so tired and soooo emotional! I find myself tearing up all the time. Oh well another week of this yet lol

Hope everyone is doing well xx

Thanks lsttcdiver. All the very best for monday, I will be thinking of you and hope to hear you have a BFP!
Good luck with babysitting tonight, sounds like you are going to have your hands full!
Have a good weekend and good luck with resisting to POAS

Hi girls! Sorry I've been busy and haven't been able to do much more than read over the last couple of weeks. But thought it was about time I touched base. I'm going to try to get my head around where everyone is - it's all go! Exciting!

Louloubell – sorry to hear about your Dad's diagnosis, great to see you looking forward - April's not too far away!

Happygal – So sorry to hear of your BFN. So unfair - where to from here for you?

Jane W – unbelievable about your FET cancellation due to BT being too late - grrrrr. Sorry to hear about your Mum too.

ScaredyCat – nice to see you - June is also not too far away!

Tiff8ny – hope things are progressing well towards EC!!

Rooella – aww Rooella - SOOOOOO excited for you. I just know it's your time!! Fx'd

Trouble06 – Your weight loss is sounding good - FET this month is it?

Rosiefarmer – just over 2 weeks till you start 'shooting up' again - wahooo!

Mountaingirl – I hope you find a clinic you're happy with.

Lsttcdiver - Monday, Monday, Monday - wow!! Fx'd for you too

Lisaloo – FET ahead - yay, let's hope waiting for the thyroid to get sorted does the trick!

Poppy1 – thinking of you, you're going to do a FET soon?

SunshineWife - drug pick up today? So close to starting!!

Leilani – I'm so sorry. I hope that you have success if you do go down the donor egg track

MarnieHayden – welcome! Sounds like EC is very soon for you - hope it goes well.

Sharpie – Is it EC or transfer for you on Monday? Hope all goes well


Apologies for the book girls, but just thought I'd use it as a way to get my head around where you're all at! AFM, going to do Day 3 bloods and Day 4 scan this cycle (was put off last month due to earthquake) and if I can twist DH's arm get back on the private funded bandwagon this next cycle! The earthquake has taught me life is short and life is far more important than money!

Take care and have a great weekend
Jo

Hello again ladies!!

Rooella - yeah the cetrotide is harder than the gonal f, to inject, I find. Just looks scarier somehow. It left me with an itchy rash but no bruising so far
I only have one bruise and that was from my very first gonal f jab, big and black, well, turning purple/yellow now. I'll be taking my second dose of cetrotide tomorrow morning, before my scan. Fingers crossed, it does as little dammage as the first one. I've already got my trigger in my little stash in the fridge so, all going to plan, I'll be told when to inject it, tomorrow...Yay!!

Tisch - Yeah egg collection could be as soon as monday, I think. I hafta say, I'm quite nervous about it. Hope it isn't too painful and I'm well sedated.

Tiff - Glad you rang your nurse. Best way to put your mind at ease, eh?
