Any Aussie ladies starting IVF?

[MollyNorwood]

Thanks everyone. I did the embryo transfer today, they put it as close to the lining as they could and I saw it on the ultrasound screen. The doctor was happy with that, now i will find out tomorrow if our other 2 are suitable for freezing and if they survived it or not. we have our blood test on April 11th

woohoo how great!

congratulations on being PUPO! my doc never uses an ultrasound screen for my ET's she kinda just wacks it on in there then gets the scientist to look under the microscope to make sure its not still hanging in there.

Interesting how different docs and clinics work.

When are you going to start testing hehe?

 

[MollyNorwood]

I wont test until the morning of the blood test. I say that now... tomorrow though is a different story! lol

 

[Sparkle_13]

Woohoo

My fingers and toes are crossed for you

If you do decide to test, you could always test out the trigger- where you test everyday until the line goes away and then keep testing until it comes back... I know I shouldn't do it but I know myself and I won't be able to help it... Haha

Fantastic news Molly

I did the same as Sparkle I tested out my trigger and Pregnyl injections the all of a sudden the line went BANG and I knew I was pregnant. Hope your little embie gets nice and snug Hope they are able to freeze the other 2 xxx

 

[MollyNorwood]

Well i caved last night and ordered some cheap pregnancy tests from ebay. I had crazy real dreams last night, i kept taking the tests and kept getting really faint second lines then all of a sudden they were bright pink, even darker than the control line! I woke up thinking it actuually happened and then wondering if I did the right thing ordering those tests because now i will be testing every day which is not what I wanted to do! haha

 

[MollyNorwood]

So i did what I didnt want to do....started testing from now! Argh! anyway i am guessing the trigger is still in my system coz i got a faint pink line on this test from just now. How long does it last in our system?

I think my trigger was gone by about 6 days after having it? maybe even earlier. But i think mine left quite early compared to many others. Test again tomorrow and if it is getting lighter than it's your trigger fading, if darker... possibly bfp?

i can't remember how many dpt you are sorry only 2 or 3, probably a bit early for positive

 

[Kirs_t]

Hi girls, sorry I haven't written much. Lily definitely keeps me busy but I've been checking in and following everyone's progress. Molly- how many dpt are you? I was a testing addict and tested out my trigger I ha faint lines everyday from trigger. On 6dp5dt I had a very faint nearly gone line and cried as I assumed it didn't work. Then 7dp5dt the line was stronger and by 8dp5dt there was no denying!! Good luck.

How is everyone else doing. How are you feeling evclo? Sparkle how's the cycle going?

Take and red- so glad to hear bubbas are going well! If love some new pics

Wish and aleja- how are things? Ttc again?

MJ- so good to have an update from you x

Lily is 18 weeks now and so gorgeous. I love this age as they are learning new things everyday and she laughs her head off a lot which is adorable. Only waking once at night now too! Hooray

For those girls who breast feed - when did you get your period back? Would be good to know when we can try ourselves again and give it a go befor we use our frosties.

Yeah I am only 1dp5dt hahaha! It will definitely be the trigger as it was only 8 days ago

 

[Sparkle_13]

Molly did you have any pain during or after the transfer? Or was it pretty easy compared to everything else you would have already been through? Are you now on progesterone?

Hi Kirs_t, OMG tiny babies laughing is the cutest thing in the world! You are so lucky! Unfortunately my cycle was cancelled as I had 1 dominant follicle that took over starting again in 2 weeks but on a higher dose, I'm feeling quite positive about it now after feeling pretty low when it 1st happened.

I'm definitely no expert but I have heard of ladies getting BFPs even before they get their 1st period. I'd go for it haha

Xx

Hahaha yes 1dpt may be a little early xx

How sweet! Glad that Lily is such a gorgeous baby. I love baby laughs, they are the best!

I'm feeling alright - pretty deflated. Husband is away for work for the next week or so (he's already been gone a week ) and i just feel a little lost. Noone else knows we are doing a FET except for us and you ladies (our families know we have done ivf and it failed, but we haven't told them we are using our frozen embies) so i just feel like i have nobody to explain my problems too! Lucky i have you guys ey

I do hope you are feeling better. Hopefully this is a short cycle that hurries up quickly and you can be back on the IVF wagon. Maybe if this cycle fails for me we can be fresh ivf buds!

hehe OK well definitely the trigger disappearing. Test away until it's gone and then maybe put them down for a bit until a bit closer to your test day! it's nice being PUPO for as long as possible

How are you feeling anyway? Relaxed?

Thanks lovely I'm actually feeling quite positive now, as you know I was worried about the low dose the whole time and that I may only get a few eggs, so now that I know I'll be on a higher dose I'm much more confident. Also I normally have 30-32 day cycles so I though it would still be 3 weeks from when it was cancelled, but because I took the trigger it would have made me ovulate earlier than normal so I'm thinking I should be due around the 14th-16th.

What day are you on now Eveclo? Sorry your hubby is away and you don't have anyone IRL to chat to about this. We're always here

Molly I forgot to ask, did you hear from your clinic about how your other 2 embies are doing? Not that I think you'll need them

Xxx

Ohh that's great that they have you the trigger! They didn't give me mine they just said 'you'll probably ovulate over the next few days' (after my cancelled one). Not long to go then!!

And yes, I am very thankful for you girlies. I can't even contact hubs by phone at the moment which is even worse! Usually I am super content with crappy things like this but I think being alone is making my brain explode!


And yes Molly! Did those embies get to freeze?

 

[Sparkle_13]

Oh that sucks that you can't even call hubbie

What clinic are you with hun? After these frosties, (not that you'll need it because I'm sure that it will work, but it can't hurt to have a backup plan) have you thought about getting another opinion?

Xx

 

[MollyNorwood]

Sparkle I'm glad you are feeling better about this next cycle! And its great they still let you have the trigger, at least this cycle will be finished soon for you. I have heard what happened to you has happened a lot, now they have worked out a better dosage for you I'm sure you will be successful xox
Eveclo- sucks that you can't even talk to your DH! It's lovely that we all have each other to talk to, but he is the other half of this so I imagine this is hard for you
I would love it if we all got our BFP's by the end of the next cycles!
I tested again today and have a faint bfp again, looks the same as yesterday's so I think it will hang around for another day or two. I will put them away until I am a couple of days away from the blood test, but I already can't shake the feeling that it hasn't worked. I know it's just because of every negative test I have had over the last 2.5 years so it's all in my head. For the most part I am relaxed really, but those doubts can start to creep in so soon!
Luckily though, we have 2 frozen embryos to fall back n if this isn't our cycle! I was so pleased both froze!

 

[Sparkle_13]

Yay congrats Molly! So happy for you about the frosties! This is my ideal, to have 2 frosties as backup xx

 

[MollyNorwood]

Thanks hun! I forgot to say I didnt experience any pain with the ET just my tummy doing weird things in bed that night but that can be the progesterone the nurse says. no pain though

I am with QFG here in brissy. They're good and really convinent for me, and their sucess rates are meant to be good but just not for me yet haha!

Definitely good to have a back up plan, and although i don't like being negative, I don't have a good feeling about this FET. I hate to say it but I really don't and am starting to second guess why on earth we are doing this. And also, so scared for another failed fresh cycle. Just horrible luck.

If this FET fails I will probably get in contact with my doctor and have an appointment with her, to discuss what we can do differently this time.

I might considering changing specialists, but I don't think she is doing anything wrong, it's more my silly body. Hehe.

That's great!!! Hopefully they are your 3 future babies so exciting! I can't wait to see the positive results from this group!!!
