Anyone doing FET/IVF in Jan 2013 till everyone's BFP (Everyone Welcome)

[Turkey16]

Gl tomorrow turkey!!!! Will you test before the beta?

Thanks MoBaby!!!!! Not gonna test before beta...I made it this far, so I'm just going with it. I'm terrified mind you, but not much longer to wait now...

Nope not much longer now! When will they have the results?
FX'd for you!!!!

They usually contact you by 2 in the afternoon. They have just recently added email to the way that you can be contacted, and I usually request that. I just can't fathom the anticipation that will overcome me in that moment before clicking...can't decide if I want them to call instead!! Ahhh!! On another note, my sore throat is now a full-blown ridiculous head cold. SUPER stuffed up and sneezing right and left! UGH! How are all your lady parts feeling?? Any lingering pain from the scratch?? You won't hear any feedback for awhile...right??

My FS called me directly to give me the bad news (never had a BFP) but I appreciated that he did the calling. They usually have the beta results around 2 at my FS office too. I hope you get fantastic news!

I was told 2-3 weeks I want to know now! It looks like we'll be getting delayed as I forgot about the IVIg and that has to be done the first week of estrogen which starts on day 2! So I'm going to start my favorite med.. lupron tomorrow and that will keep me in a neutral spot until we get the results. Then we can start the FET immediately thereafter. That means a 1-2 week delay, but that is better than 3-4!

Cramping is not too bad, but not better either! I'm sure it will be better by tomorrow!!

Wow...that's really nice that your FS called personally. Don't see that happening here, but you never know!! He did call my hubby at work to talk him into transferring 3 embies!!

Glad you are feeling ok, if not entirely better. Hope things are good to go tomorrow. I'd be a liar if I said I understood exactly how your trial transfer is gonna go down, but if you are cool with a 1-2 week delay, than I am too!! I'm looking forward to learning more for sure!!! I really hope the Lupron doesn't give you too much trouble this time around!!!

HAHA :hehe: If it were up to me we'd have transferred them already! But I do understand the delays, with the cancelled cycle and the poor lining last time. The main reason we need to wait now is that we don't want to give me IVIg (an infusion that costs $3000) unless we know for sure we are doing the transfer. We won't know if we'll have to repeat the trial and subject me to 2 yes 2 biopsies or continue with normal FET until we get the results. I think he said that only 5-10% of women need the second trial with the 2 biopsies, so I'm hoping I'm not in that group!

The lupron kind of just turns off your hormones and puts you in a suspended state, so after I get AF, I'll just take the lupron until we get the results, and then as soon as I get a green light we'll be back on the estrogen patches to prime the lining. So if you think about it, in a normal cycle I'd have another week before AF, then we'd start so if the results only take 2 weeks I'm only delayed 1 week, if they take 3 weeks I'm delayed 2 weeks. I'd rather that then going without hormone therapy and waiting for AF to show up on its own. She has been really wonky the past few months since my last IVF. So this is the better option with the least amount of delays.

I'm off to bed, going to see if I can't find some ibuprofen and my heating pad to help with the cramps. Night ladies!

Turkey - so excited for you. GL tomorrow

Ali - glad to hear all went well - minus the pain. I hope you put your feet up and relaxed when it was all over.

L4 - the 12 week scan is a beautiful one. You can see arms and legs and fingers and toes. Bring the tissue - you'll need it.

AFM - exciting weekend spent in the ER. Was on my way to the salon (I've been waiting forever to get my hair done so my Saturday appointment was the start to my pamper day) when I felt that something wasn't right. Got to the salon, went to the toilet, and saw my worst nightmare. Blood. Went into a state of panic as hubby was out of town and nobody was answering their phones. Luckily the receptionist at the salon was able to get me into a taxi and off to the hospital. And en route was able to get hold of hubby. After many hours of tests they told me that baby was doing ok and they couldn't isolate the cause of bleeding. I'm still freaked out and taking it easy in hopes that I never have to go through that again. I have a follow up appointment in 2 days to make sure everything is still ok

 

[everhopeful]

Wanna - I'm so sorry you had a scare but what a relief that baby is all ok!! I know this sounds very casual and blood is never nice to see but a lot of women bleed in pregnancy. I had a bleed with my son at about 10 weeks. Scared me silly but it was all fine!! Try to keep calm and have a lovely relaxing day or two if you can!!
Xx

 

[everhopeful]

Turkey- everything crossed for you. Think I would prefer a call over an email. I think?? I'm still going slightly insane here!! I'm not a 2ww fan but I always hate getting closer and closer to date incase it hasn't worked! Xx

My OB met me at the hospital about an hour after I got there. She did tell me that bleeding is common but not normal, so I did the right thing by going in. I'm feeling a bit calmer especially hearing stories like yours where it all ends well. Thank you.

How much longer until OTD?

Thank you Sandy. I think I need my appointment to finally put me at ease.

Good luck with your appointment today. I hope you get some answers and get your plan in place!

Sandy: all the best for your appointment!

Turkey: woohoo!! Very excited for you dear!

Ever: yay Sat will b here before you know it!

 

[MoBaby]

Wanna I glad baby is okay! Bleeding is scary as I had a bunch when I was pg! I'm glad all checked out well. Are you supposed to rest now until the new appt?

Sandy follow up!!! Hope it goes well and all your questions can be answered.

Turkey: beta day!!! fx for you!

 

[Mells54]

Turkey Good luck keep us posted!

Sandy, I felt so much better after our WTf appt. it just puts everything into prospective.

Wanna, so scary. Sounds like things will be ok though.

Ever, Saturday will be here soon.

AFM, have a terrible head cold and sore throat. Yuck! Love me DH but this is one think I could have used without him sharing. He's been sick in bed since last Thursday.

Hi to all the ladies wherever you are in your cycle. Sometimes I tend to lose track.

I'm supposed to carry on as usual although I didn't do much more than lay on the couch on Saturday. Been working from home as I'm nervous to go to work as it's over an hour away. But with every day I'm feeling better...

 

[alicatt]

Wanna.. I think I would have been freaking out too! Glad that the baby was OK. Hopefully your upcoming appt will show that everything it still fine and that you just need to rest a little!

Turkey.. good luck today!

Ever.. can't wait to hear how your tests go!

Sandy.. looking forward to hearing about your WTF appt and your FS's plan for moving forward. Having a plan always makes me happy!

AFM.. managed to get my lupron to be delivered today so I start that, then discontinue estrogen and progesterone in 4 days then wait for AF. Keep taking the lupron until we get the results. Then if they are good I slap on some patches and the FET begins, if things are bad we will have to regroup I'm thinking positive, and planning on moving forward in 2-3 weeks!

everhopeful - wow I do that area and that school! How crazy what a small world it all is!

well my cycle got postponed for a few weeks. It seems I developed a cysts while on BCPs. My body tried to ovulate while on BCPs...how crazy is that. My dr gave me Aygestin to dissolve the cyst adn bring down my estrogen. Hopefully this will work and I can get started in a couple of weeks. Right now, I am trying to get my flight changed to go back home. This was a wasted trip!

ttc - it is odd that you got cysts while on BCP, but I must say that I've often wondered if I was ovulating through BCP. Have they considered Lupron? I think it helps keep the estrogen at bay.

 

[MoBaby]

TTC! I am soo sorry! That stinks! I wonder why you formed cysts on the BCP Thats what they give to shrink them. Hopefully in a couple weeks you can start back up. Any way to get an ultrasound where you live to check for cysts before you make travel arrangements again?

 

[everhopeful]

Ttc- how frustrating!! I'm glad they gave you something to shrink the cyst. Will they give you a different BCP at least? Xx

 

[Turkey16]

Hi girls...just got the call, and I'm pregnant. But I'm freaking out cuz my # is 37.5...she said that was on the low side, but that it didn't matter as long as it was higher come Thursday (next bloodwork appt). I can't stop crying cuz I don't know what to think. I POAS when I got off the phone, and there are 2 lines, but one is definitely faint. No idea how to feel...PLEASE HELP!!!
