Can't wait for January to hurry up and get here for you!!!

Feeling stressed. None of the other eggs made it to freeze and I have no pregnancy symptoms like I did last time. I'm concerned about my egg quality since I'm not making it to 5 day transfers and have only gotten 1 frozen in two cycles. Friday is the earliest I could try home testing, but I'm not feeling very hopeful.

ok so 2 week wait is getting to the end but still too early to test. i hope you don't mind if i indulge in some useless symptom spotting:

i'm experiencing:
weird cravings for milk which i usually don't drink by itself
lots of having to pee, waking up at least once, sometimes twice a night
sensitive nipples but not sore breasts
twinges in the abdomen that aren't cramp-like
sinus stuffiness
last night had the sweats a little (could just be from humidifier)
constipation rather than looseness that i usually get before AF (sorry TMI)

not experiencing (that i did when i got BFP):
leg cramps
nicer looking "glow" to skin on face
extreme fatigue

so far i have no spotting yet either which is good, but all this could just be from the progesterone

will POAS Saturday. beta is tuesday

Hi ladies,
I was out of town and had no internet access. I was thinking about you all every singe day! How are you?
I need to go back and read many pages.

ttc baby, happy belated birthday and wish you that your dreams never stay only dreams

panda, congrats PUPO! Nice list of symptoms! How many eggs were retrieved? Did you tansfer day 3? Did you follow the same meds protocol?

Gloria and Trolly good luck 2014 IVF. I am so excited for you!

My last natural cycle IVF failed, because of chromosomal abnormalities. An egg was fertilized but had 3 pronucleus. It was just a bad luck, Trolly, for us too.
I did my HCG trigger last night and ER Monday morning. WE found 18mm follicle again on the R side, 9.3 mm uterine lining. Doing retrieval w/o pain killer again.
I didn't follow my anti-inflammatory diet at all this month. I ate lots of protein, high cholesterol foods, less veggies and fruits. ONly took fish oil, vit E and folic acid. I didn't do castor oil, fertility massage....
I don't have thrombofilia and my AmH went up from 1.29 to 2.2. ER procedures since August didn't cause damage to my ovaries. I am happy about that.

I really beleave in Christmas magic and hope it'll bring us all a bundle of joy very soon!

 

[panda fan]

dov,

that sounds good!! I am praying for you. Lots of protein is good so don't worry about switching up diet. Your constant hopefulness and good attitude inspire me to not wallow in disappointment and to keep looking forward.

I got my AF today early and had a snowy white BFN yesterday so it appears this cycle has failed. As soon as it started, I just had a bad feeling and then many things went wrong including the eggs growing out of sync. I guess my body was not ready to be pregnant again even though they told me the lining looked great.

I have my RE appt Jan 8th. I will be hoping for good news for you in the meantime!

So sorry to hear this panda sending u hugs...2014 is gonna b all of ours year I just know it xx

 

[panda fan]

yay to 2014!

 

[gloria33]

yay to 2014!

Sorry to hear about your cycle panda.. pray that as trolley said 2014 brings us the luck we all need and is the year for all of us..

 

[dovkav123]

It is not fair, panda. I am so sorry for your BFN

We retrieved my egg and waiting for a fertilisation report tomorrow. We're planning to transfer on Wednesday.
Another RE did a procedure and she didn't want my hubby in the room. We were so upset, my hubby went to the front desk to complaint and I refused to sit in the chair till he is next to me. Why this private practice is not consistent with their rules?
Last month I had no problems with another RE during retrieval. She even didn't mind us filming...

So, the blood test is due on my birthday, but the office is closed on Christmas,so it is scheduled on the 23rd.

 

[panda fan]

dov, I am sorry. That sounds unnecessarily stressful. They should definitely be consistent with their rules. If you expect him to be there because he was last time, it is obviously going to cause anxiety when they change that at the last minute.

Well . . . some thoughts . . . if anyone has any advice or research on this I'd appreciate it.

I am concerned about my egg quality. I'm wondering if I should go to a different clinic as I just looked up my clinic and it's rating is not very high. It's below the national average even. My brother and his wife live in Littleton, CO which is where one of the top clinics in the country is. I was thinking of going out there to try but doubt my insurance will cover it.

I also wonder if doing a mini-IVF or natural cycle would result in better egg quality. Not really sure what to do right now. I have my meeting with RE on January 8th so I'm going to do some research before then and try and get some better answers from her than "it is, what it is"

P.S. Even though I have heavy flow, I still have to keep taking progesterone and go for beta tomorrow. They said always chance that one took and other didn't, but FRER was negative so not too hopeful about that.

 

[dovkav123]

Panda, I have done my 5th natural IVF cycle. I have changed the clinics and learned that my uterus need special attention during ET. I hope this IVF is the last one.
It is affordable in Europe, and it has at least health risks for me, so we'll do it till we succeed. Insurance will never pay for a natural IVF cycle.
Do you have low AMH and high FsH?

Please read Lils preg journal first page, she got lucky, she did lots of things to increase her fertility.
