a thread for those that have never had a bfp :( wow 23 bfp's

[ashknowsbest]

I'm feeling okay just trying to be patient. Oh and I went out last night to play pool and we had a good time trying to stay busy you know.

Uhm today I'm 5dpiui but idk if I'll test. I might just wait until AF comes or doesn't around the 20th.

 

[wanabeamama]

I'm glad your keeping buisy I havnt played pool in years lol
I get you with waiting out for AF I know I will be too scared to poas
Good luck

 

[ashknowsbest]

I'm not really scared to poas ... I just would rather not get the bad news before AF is here. We'll see how I do though because I do get impatient and just want to test.

 

[l1nda]

Unfortunately inpatient poas bfn's this month still didn't stop me being gutted AF arrived AGAIN! It's a good job internet test strips are so cheap or I'd be going broke with my impatience!

 

[wanabeamama]

I hate that witch

 

[ashknowsbest]

Well I had a terrible scare with my dog and won't know for sure until tomorrow if he is going to be okay or not. He wasn't eating or acting like himself and so my OH and I took him to his vet and they ended up doing x-rays and it came back and it looked like he had something square shaped in his stomach so we were trying to think about what it could be but couldn't come up with anything. So, the doctor wanted to have Rupert stay there overnight but we decided no because it was so expensive and it's not like his life is in danger right now. The object, if it even is an object is about half an inch in size and Rupert is not showing signs of discomfort or anything. He wasn't eating this morning and that's why we took him in but now that we're home he wants to eat. We're really not sure what's going on but we're supposed to bring him to the vet tomorrow morning for follow up x-rays to see if that object is still there.

Please pray for him and reguarding TTC info, I'm 9 dpiui today and I'm planning on not testing until Monday since that would be 14 dpiui. AF should be here by then anyways if I'm not pregnant.

Oh god ash I hope your doggy is ok
My cat has been missing for 4 days :'(

Oh I have everything crossed for you I can't wait to see your bfp

 

[ashknowsbest]

OMG! I would be freaking out if my puppy was missing! That's so sad, hopefully she/he comes home soon!!

I really hope Rupert is going to be okay. We got home and he wanted to eat but now that he had the x-ray and needs another tomorrow morning he's not allowed to eat! It's not funny but it kinda is cause OH and I think we may have overreacted and that he just wasn't hungry but he didn't eat since yesterday morning so we were freaking out! And they did see something in his belly just not sure what it was!

 

[wanabeamama]

Awwww lol I would love to know what he ate lol
Yeah I'm really sad about my willow I hope se comes home I keep going to the door calling her

 

[l1nda]

Oh no. Cat missing and poorly dog... that's does not help your tww! Fingers crossed the cat comes home and the dog got on ok with repeat xrays. Thankfully my bunnies have just been making paper machie models with the lining of their hutch.

wannabe - How's the IVF process coming along? I hope all is well!

AFM - 6th IUI ... So it failed, not that surprised since I've had 5 before that and they also didn't work. I got AF this morning so .... I guess I have to wait until CD 21 to start the lupron since I'm on down reg protocol.

Sorry to hear this one didn't work Ash. But I'm happy for you that you FINALLY get to move on to IVF! Do you have to go on birth control at all? Or you just do the Lupron, then the stims? I'm confused by all the different protocols.

And, how's the puppy doing?

 

[ashknowsbest]

Well I still have to get the okay from the insurance company but their requirements to move on are 6 failed IUI's so I'm sure I'll get the okay. I don't have to go on birth control, I'm not really sure why I mean I know that doctors use birth control or in my case lupron to suppress the ovaries before stimulation but I'm really not sure either ... I just know I'm only doing lupron, then gonal f, menopur and then the ovidrel trigger before the ER.

How is everything going with you?

 

[AMP26]

Everything is going okay. I finally got my first AF which just ended and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Hubby and I are back and forth on when to start IVF. Somedays I want to start right away... some days I want to wait a few months. Honestly, I'm pretty sure I'm just terrified of the same thing happening again. I'm going to try naturally this cycle and that's about all we've decided so far !

 

[ashknowsbest]

AMP - well I think that makes sense to do one natural cycle just to kind of have a break from things. I'm feeling like you, you're definitely not alone. I do not want to not have success with IVF because I just think that would be SO hard! I wrote this in my journal but when I started IUI I was like okay, I see lots of women get pregnant through IUI so this will be it and now I haven't had success with that. Well now, I'm seeing a lot of women get IVF and have success and I'm feeling like GREAT am I going to be the one that doesn't have success....it's terrible!

 

[AMP26]

I think it would be harder to get a BFN with IVF. Because IVF is like the ace in the hole. Clomid might not work, Injectibles might not work, IUI's might not work, but that's okay because there's always IVF. So if IVF doesn't work.... then what? But just know in you heart that the percentage for IVF BFP's is so much higher but it's still not 100%. And we will all be here no matter what!!!!

 

[ashknowsbest]

Yeah this is like last resort ... kind of ... I mean we can do donor sperm/eggs and then surrogacy with our eggs and sperm but geeze that's getting crazy and I can do up to 4 IVF's but I .... don't know if I would even want to do that many just because of the emotional and physical toll! Oh well, it is what it is and I have to get through it. I just want to have a baby!

 

[wanabeamama]

Ash I'm sorry AF came welcome to the ivf rollercoaster
Amp I think trying naturally for now is a great idea to get back into the ttc frame of mind and the hit and miss of it

AFM the ivf is going ok so far I hav been on a very long protocol I've been down regging for 15 days and still have 3 days to go before stimming and then the crazy starts lol but so far it's ok

YAY!!!! I can't wait till we know if this cycle worked I'm really excited for you!

AFM.... still trying naturally. Got AF on Sunday so we're on to Cycle 2. We decided to start fresh after the ectopic, plus, Cycle 2 sounds so much more hopeful than 48
