Anyone starting IVF cycle in April/May?

[twinklemama]

Star, I was delighted last week the FA cup ended, and the rugby heinekin cup ends today, I thought I was gonna get a break until I was reminded about the World Cup! Nightmare lol!! I really did let my hair down yesterday and I'm suffering for it today! Decided to have a nice cup of tea to help my hangover, but since I've been off caffeine for about 6 weeks, I've now got the shakes!

 

[star25]

Sounds like you had a good night! Last time I had caffeine I had a huge hazelnut latte from Costa after a long day out, it was about 9pm and I had the worst nights sleep, with a hangover though it will probably help!

Hi ladies, hope your all well.
If had my embryo transfer and feeling so tired now, got little cramps. They put 2 embryos and froze 2 so I'm happy with that all 4 embryos are v.good quality. I didn't drink enough water so the doctor struggled a little (the bladder is supposed to be full when going for the embryo transfer) I was worried he would say to go and drink water then come back, luckily he managed. I'm just taking it easy now and resting. Feeling sleeping!

Congrats on being PUPO yearningheart, can't believe that's all your "treatment" bit done! This week has really flown in since your EC. The cramps are normal, especially if they've had a bit of trouble, don't worry about it tho-I had cramps and bleeding after my second transfer and still got a BFP (chemical). Hopefully you will get a good nights sleep tonight. And congrats on the 2 frosties!!

Any updates Jackdoll?

 

[star25]

Well done yearningheart and great news about the frosties, sending you lots of babydust for your little ones xx

 

[JACKDOLL]

Congrats yarningheart. Hope you get through this long & dreadful wait xx

Girls I've tested Friday, Saturday and today and all BFPs. I'm not sure if its any darker but diffently not lighter! I'm 7dp5dt today and 14 days since trigger. I feel so sick. Have a constant tightness in my belly.

 

[lizzie78]

That's brilliant news jackdoll. When is your otd? I think the lines don't really change much day to day but if you compare them every two days you might be able to see a slight difference. Keeping everything crossed for you and this bfp xxx

 

[star25]

Congratulations jackdoll, you've done it! X

 

[YearningHeart]

Jackdoll - Yaaay sounds good good. When is your blood test?

Thanks ladies!
Im going away today to stay at my mums. In my apartment I keep thinking about this! So I am looking forward to going and keeping the mind off and busy.

How are you all today? I hope the weather is good, so unpredictable.. sometimes you the sun and the next its gone! lol

 

[twinklemama]

Jackdoll, congrats pet, sounds like this is it for you!!!!

Yearningheart, have a fab time away, hope it takes your mind off the wait xo

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend, it's pouring down here, kinda matches my mood. Just have this feeling of sadness that won't lift. Hope it goes away soon.

 

[star25]

Oh twinkle, wish I could make u feel better, we will all get there in the end but we understand how hard it is, just want us all to have our bfps now

Have a restful time yearningheart, how long are you away for? When is your otd?

 

[YearningHeart]

twinkle - Im sorry your feeling like that. I know it is so painful and takes time for the heart to heal and accept the reality. Life is full of happiness and sadness, we have our time, happiness comes eventually dont worry. I hope this phase passes quick for you and something comes up for you to focus on. I wish I could say something to make you better but I know times like this nothing really works other than time just passing. Stay strong. x

star - Hi how are you doing today? My blood test is on 9th June so my 2ww is actually 16 days! because my ET was on a Saturday and they dont have blood clinic open on Saturdays so I would have to wait extra 2 days. x

 

[lizzie78]

Yearningheart, have a lovely time with your mum x

Twinkle, nothing I can say unfortunately other than to be kind to yourself and let yourself be sad for a while. Sending you lots of

 

[star25]

Yearningheart, I'm ok thank you, just keeping busy with work while counting down the day's, how annoying having to wait an extra 2 days, though compared to the waiting already done I suppose it isn't so bad, will you test earlier than that or wait?

 

[YearningHeart]

Star - yeah that's good, keeping busy at least will take your mind off and by the time you know it your appointment will be here! That's the advantage of working.
Haha your right the amount of waiting I have been doing in this round of IVF extra 2 days is no big deal. As for testing.. Nah I don't think I will test. I can't be tempted either because I left my testing stuff at home and I'm at my mums now. Lol
To be honest I prefer not to test and dh also said not to test just in case. Il deal with the stress if it comes.. Hopefully it's all good good.

I'm feeling miles better than my first IVF. During my first ivF I was so unwell, I had to go hospital, I had OHSS it was just so horrible and the meds after embryo transfer were a nightmare.. This time I feel much better and able to move around.

Sorry you're feeling down Twinkle. The weather here is horrible too. Skyped with my DH and DS and they were complaining about getting too much sun today! Geesh.

Amazing Jackdoll! THat's amazing to get a good line so early.

Had my first blood test today. Spent the day wandering around and wasting time afterwards. Finally got back to my rental, put up my feet and it started pouring rain. THe clinic called and said my blood tests were good and to start the orgalutron. Um, I don't have any! Had to take the bus down to the clinic (in the pouring rain) to get some. Ugh, four needles today (three injections and one blood draw). I'm looking pretty chewed up already!

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been around but after getting a stark white BFN on Thursday I just needed some time to myself to cry & drink lots of caffeine.
I'm really not looking forward to going to work tomorrow cos I work in a small office & they all knew what we were doing so I'm going to have to tell them all that it didn't work. I know they will all mean well but I just want to move on, it will be at least 4 months until we can try again as the dates clash with our holiday & my hubby thinks we need time to get over this round.

Good luck Yearningheart I hope it goes well for you & Jackdoll congrats on your BFP.

I hope everyone else is ok xx
