Hi girls,

ET went really well. The embryologist said at this stage, on day 3, he would expect the embryos to be at 8 cells and that all 8 of mine are at that stage and that one of them was starting to compact which means it was moving to the next stage so he transferred that one and the best one of the 8 cells so two in total and he is going to let the remaining 6 grow on until Monday. He said he is hoping to have some at blast stage by then for freezing. Keeping everything crossed. Off work now until Monday.

Test date November 18th.

Thats great news Snowflake, you must be so excited, you're now PUPO with two embies . I have my FX for you and wishing you lots of sticky .

As for my latest update Lilly...my test date is the 11th November 09 ....almost there, FX

 

[bek74]

Lilly my update is.... Test date 18th Nov

Hi girls,

Since yesterday evening I have a feeling over me as if AF is coming which isn't possible as only had ET yesterday. What would be causing the mild cramping? I also have lower backache - would it be from the Progesterone pessaries? I had day 3 transfer so it's not implantation.

Hun it could well just be all the pushing and pulling around you had with EC. Also your ovaries are probably still swollen. The pessaries can take some getting used to too.

I don't know snowflake as I Haven't done ICSI yet but I think mrs G has the best answer.

 

[lioness168]

Hang in there Snowflake, try not worry . Because of all the drugs, hormones and the procedure, I personally didn't worry about symptom or AF spotting as there was no point. The only thing I did do was check the HCG trigger was out of my system so if I caved in to do a hpt later (which I did), I knew it wouldn't be a false positive. I have read it takes about 10 days after the trigger for it to be out of your system.

In hindsight I wrote down what I remember happening/felt. So feel free to check out my journal if you wish.

Best of luck PUPO lady and good luck, praying that this will bring you a bfp!

I had the mild cramping also. The HCG trigger shot can give you pregnant like symptoms, so try not to worry to much about what your body is doing at this stage.

All the best hun (our test date is the same, 18th Nov)

best of luck ladies hope you are all keeping well and keeping the feet up
Lioness- i cant believe you havent' caved in and tested early. any symptoms at all.

snowflake- hope the cramping stops soons

i'm 8dpo, injected last night and i feel really rough. cramping etc. had two really late nights though so i'm sure that is playing havoc on my body.

 

[MrsF]

heya ladies, just wanted to wish you lots of sticky dust for those in the 2ww and to those starting a new cycle!

still not sure where we're going from here, but will update as and when

[fleur123]

hello all, i wondered if i could join you? i have spent all day reading your past posts couldn't put my lap top down!
I'l give you me in a nut shell, me and hubby have been ttc for the past 3 and a half years with no luck, we have had various tests done which shows dh sperm count of 1-2 million so we will be looking a icsi (well my doc actually said we will be looking a donor!) which i've tried to explain to hubby that's not the case with icsi they only need 1 good one right? i have had tests to see if im ovulating which came bk i am so at the moment i dont think there is any other problems with me. We are due to have our first appointment with the fertility specialist on thursday but i was wondering if anyone can tell me what to expect? do you think it will just be a chat or will they do more tests?
I just want to say you are all such fantastic brave ladies im praying you all get your bfps!!! good luck to everyone and baby dust to all x x x

Hi Fleur
best of luck on your ttc journey
i was scanned at my consult and they put me on a course of meds from my first visit.
they then told me to come back at certain points and have more scans.
we are currently waiting for IVF. maybe the girls that are having ICSI can help you more

 

[bek74]

Welcome fleur,
I had had all my tests done before seeing my FS so once there he talked to hubby and I and we set out our program and once I was day 21 of my cycle I started my meds for IVF.

Good luck on your journey

 

[lioness168]

Fleur - You guys definately sound like ICSI candidates to me! I don't know why your Dr was talking about donor for. And yes, it only takes one! Good luck and let us know how you go with the FS on Thursday

MrsF - I hope you get some answers soon so you know where you guys are headed next, good luck until then .

 

[Kelly9]

Fleur mine did a repeat SA on DH and ultrasound on me plus did some more bloods on DH. We're going ICSI due to low sperm count to between 12mil and 23 mil. It does only take one. We have a wait list at our clinic, 4 months to get in for consult which was sept 24th then another 2 to 4 months to start IVF we're currently about 1.5 months in to the wait for starting treatment so I expect to start maybe Dec or Jan. So far away!

 

[NeyNey]

Hi fleur, welcome to our little family.

How are we girls? Where's everyone up to as I haven't been around on the weekend...fill me in

I'm still jabbing away. Waiting to hear back from the latest BT results, follicle tracking scan booked for Wed morning.

We're looking to hopefully have the EPU around the weekend, or Mon/Tues next week. If all goes according to plan...

 

[bek74]

Hey NeyNey, glad to hear all is going well on the FSH injections. Look forward to seeing how your scan goes. I am sure you will have plently of big follicles.

 

[lioness168]

NeyNey, good to hear everything is going well. Looking forward to hear how your u/s goes, I am sure everything will go well and you'll be well on your way to your EC on the weekend/early in the week. May this cycle be your bfp cycle, FX .

As for me, I have confirmation beta bloods in 2 days time ie: Wednesday Sydney time. I am trying not to get too excited yet, but for the last 5 days I have had a , I'm praying everything keeps going well.

 

[Kelly9]

Yay for Neyney and EC soon! and super yay for lioness and confirmation bloods!

 

[fleur123]

hello girls, thank you all for your warm welcome!

Good luck lioness for wednesday i'l keep my fingers crossed for you!

Ney Ney good luck to you to hope you get you ec asap!

Bek74 & gum69 good luck with your journeys hope you get bfps soon!

Im hoping they will at least do a scan on me, i really want to check my ovaries are ok, my doc is under the impression because im young "23" that everything is fine with me? had bloods done etc but i thought i would have to have lap-dye? it will be great if i dont but im sure i wont be that lucky! did you all have that? i really hope they give dh another count im just praying it hasn't got worse! we are just glad at long last to actually get started, good luck to you all i'l give you my update on thursday x x baby dust to all x x x
