Any Aussie ladies starting IVF?

[wantingbubba7]

That would have been annoying getting AF that early, every now and then I would get mine at some ridiculous time of the month.... thats exactly right you might have just needed a break .. you did just move house etc
Fingers crossed for starting next month new dr new start ! I'm so excited for you.
How is Sydney?

Still no word on my Beta and its nearly 2:30 my husband said he will ring soon if no word. I am getting so anxious. My tests are pretty dark now so I have no doubt it will be an ok number. But I'm still stressed.

 

[wantingbubba7]

Beta came in at 132 !!!!

Beta came in at 132 !!!!

That's a great number do you go back again for another ?

 

[wantingbubba7]

Miss Cassie any news? Thinking of you

 

[MissCassie]

I got 5 eggs collected which is better than last time when I only got 3 so hopefully at least 1 makes it to 5 day blast.. I had a lot of large folicles but they just weren't egg bearing..

How are you going Evelco?

Oh yay Cassie! Sooo happy for you. I was really hoping you'd have a few more this time. How did the fertilisation go? Any more updates? Fingers crossed that wantingbubba has started something and you'll be the next on the BFP train

So 4/5 have fertilised, so I have 1 more than last time... I was hoping for more too and had heaps of follies on both ovaries I think my fs was expecting way more when he was collecting them..he was like "what is going on with your ovaries"
Asking all types of questions.. weird..
Oh well I find out on wed/thurs how they have gotten on.. I hope this is my tern.. because if it's not we are going on a large break.. until about Jan next year

That's ok! It's still 4 little embryos that all have a chance. I know everyone always says this but it really does only take one

Let us know how it all goes, I will be keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you.

 

[MissCassie]

I hope my 4 embryos are getting on nicely I want to call tomorrow and check up.. they will be day 4 then. Although I was told they would call me on day 6 but that's just too long to wait that will drive me crazy waiting... I am way too impatient haha.

How's things with you Evelco? Do you know when you'll be starting your next cycle?

Aww I hope they are going well! Did you end up calling yesterday?? If not you should totally call and see! I rang everyday like the overprotective embryo mother I am haha so embaressing!

I don't know when we will cycle next. I start work soon and I don't want to have any time off for at least 6 or so months. We aren't in a super big rush and can probably use the break. We might go on a holiday or something in the mean time if I am able to take some sort of leave during my husbands holidays over Christmas. fingers crossed for your embryos Cass x

It was driving me crazy and I did call many times but because I went through the bulk billed side of clinic you get put through to a voice mail and then have to wait for a nurse to call yoy back! So frustrating I was pulling me hair out over it! But we got a message tonight that 3 of the 4 fertilised embryos made it to freeze so I now have 3 embies on ice!! And a scan next Friday for lining and hopefully a transfer not long after that.

I agree I think taking a break will be good for you and if your working for 6 months you should be able to take some leave if you decide to do a cycle. And who knows you could end up getting a surprise BFP.
When do you start working? I hope you enjoying Sydney.

WOW what a fabulous result! That's honestly amazing. I was confident for you but that is a really really amazing result. You two must be sooo thrilled! I'm so happy right now for you. What a relief! How are you feeling??

I start at the end of the month I am looking forward to getting out of the house a bit but a bit nervous to have to start all over again and make more work friends etc. Sydney is going ok! Still missing QLD.

Wanting bubba where you at lady?? I want updates how are you feeling what have you been up to?

 

[wantingbubba7]

MissCassie, I am so thrilled for you I bet you are just over the moon!!!

Eveclo, glad you are settling into Sydney well, you are such a lovely person I am certain you will make some great Sydney friends !!
Sounds like if you decide to take that break it will be some well deserved you and hubby time, you've certainly been through so much...

As for me I am 6 weeks 2 days today. I had a bleed scare on Monday along with cramping and thought it was all over. We drove into the clinic and they gave me a scan. Turns out baby is fine so far... couldn't see the heartbeat as yet but the Dr. said all looked great. He did find a small clot which was the cause of my bleed... said it wasn't affecting the baby at all which was a relief. Have another scan this Monday at 6 weeks 5 days so I should see a heartbeat. Other then that I am fine, no real morning sickness or anything.

Hi Girls, I have been so busy that I haven't been on in such a long time Hubby and I did a cycle in March and were lucky enough to get 22 eggs, 21 fertilised, 12 biopsied for PGD testing and we got 4 perfect embryos.

I had a transfer on the 27th July and was lucky that it stuck. And last week we found out that it is another boy

Miss Cassie - Congrats on your frosties Any news when transfer will be? x

Eveclo - Are you excited to be returning to work? I know I was after having 20months off with Lincoln. x

WantingBubba - Congrats on your pregnancy I had a bleed when I was pregnant with Lincoln, glad to hear everything was ok. Good luck with your scan tomorrow x

Oh Red, i have been hoping you would update soon with some good news. Congratulations on being pregnant with another beautiful little boy. So exciting. I love that they can tell you so early with the PGD. Do you mind if i message you regarding your clinic? You are in Sydney aren't you? I recently had an appointment with a specialist because we are thinking of doing a PGD cycle next, not that it will really matter I suppose as we have transferred our only embryos anyway but at least we will know if they are normal or not. I did end up doing a cycle with Intralipids, steroids and clexane and that was a negative again which makes the 6th for us.

Good to hear from you xx

Ow gosh not good about the bleeding scare! I have heard that is very normal in early pregnancy. The fact that your doctor was able to source the problem with the clot is a big relief just to know that there is a reason behind it. Have you stopped bleeding now? Glad to hear that you are feeling fine so exciting. xx

 

[wantingbubba7]

MissCassie, how are you feeling? Have you started on the Progynova now?

Redknob, seems like its a common thing to bleed early in pregnancy especially if you you've had IVF. I've done much googling now hehe
Congratulations on your new pregnancy you are exactly a week behind me I think.. April babies so cool how you already know its a boy too.

How are you going Eveclo, when is it that you start your new job?

I had my 6 week 5 day scan yesterday and all was well.... saw and heard "bugs" heartbeat, was so surreal... still have the unforunate clot sitting there next to the sac... so scared its going to all come out at once and give me a heart attack Dr. says its not affecting anything at all so I shouldn't stress myself but its hard not to.
No more bleeding in the meantime though, just spotting which I'm 99% sure its the crinone irritating me now, I've been on it for weeks. Only 2 more weeks left woohoooo
Have another scan this Monday as well
