Early 30's TTC #1

[rosababy]

Found another saying on my ivf thread.

"I feel like pants today."

It means (I think) to feel sick/gross/bad. Something along those lines. That's hysterical!

 

[hakunamatata]

It's always a learning experience here!

Are you excited about tomorrow Rosa?

It's always a learning experience here!

Are you excited about tomorrow Rosa?

Yes! Hoping that I have good quality eggs. A bit nervous.

My ovaries are SO bloated and huge. It's a good thing! But I'm so uncomfortable. I'm looking forward to not being a henhouse tomorrow!

 

[hopefulmama2b]

When will you know the quality?

Well when Pink said she was packing vests to take on her beach vacation I thought...hmmm? That's interesting, but who I am to judge maybe it's a European thing! Hahah! Apparently they're what we call tank tops.

 

[rosababy]

hopeful, i didn't even catch that! vests!

Tomorrow, I'll find out how many eggs there were, and hopefully how many are mature. Later tomorrow (hopefully) I'll find out how many of them fertilized. My clinic is closed on the weekends, so I'm sure I won't get a phone call on Saturday/Sunday (I'll be dying with anticipation!!) and Monday I'll find out how many are still alive and kicking. Also on Monday I'll find out if my transfer is that day or Wednesday. I'm hoping that if it IS on Monday, I'll know Sunday night, but who knows.

I love pants. It is a great word. Rubbish is enough of my favs (means trash literally but we use it to mean feeling pants/bad/low/hungover).

Yay Rosa. Yay everyone else. I feel really relaxed this cycle - stopped charting and just feel good. My friend who has been trying a couple of months more than me, is older and had an early miscarriage just told me she is preggers again and I felt really inspired. It will be all of us next xxxx

 

[rosababy]

Mrsmax, glad you're feeling relaxed. That helps.

I got 10 eggs yesterday! I was hoping for 4 or 5, and I got 10! I'm still in shock. The doc was SO pleased, and that made me happy too!

I have no idea how many are mature and how many are fertilizing because my clinic is closed on weekends but the embryologist is there to babysit over the weekend. I'll get a call first thing Monday morning to find out info and when I come in for the transfer. The annoying thing is I have to wake up at 7 on my day off to start drinking gallons of water just in case my transfer is Monday morning. Just as my bladder is about to burst is when I'll probably get the call. I'm hoping for a Wednesday date though, because that means my embies are doing good.

How is everyone today? The weather here in Virginia is GORGEOUS!

 

[hakunamatata]

Oooh great!! Sounds promising!!

 

[Crumbs]

Rosa, Fxfxfxfx!!! Soon enough and you'll have your baby bump

 

[mrsmax]

Hey Rosa - Cant wait to hear your news!!! Fxd!

 

[Soleil Breeze]

Ughhhhhhhh. Must wait another day now. Looks like the insem. will be on Wednesday instead of tomorrow. Oh, well. I'm just a teensy bit worried that DH's sperm will have been hanging out for close to the five-day mark. We last BD'ed Friday evening and they tell you not to have sex less than two days from insem., but no more than five either. ARGH. Girls, send out all the positive vibes in the world that I get a positive tomorrow so that I can go for the insem. on Weds. morning.

ROSAAAAAAAAAAAA! I see your info/ticker and you've got two embryos in there! I could cry with joy!!!! I hope/pray/every other good word imaginable that they both develop beautifully! TWINS! What a fabulous possibility!!! xx

 

[rosababy]

Thanks, soleil. I just came on because I realized I didn't put anything on our beloved 30s thread!

I transferred 2 grade A/B embies this morning. Not perfect, but still good. Out of 10 eggs, 6 were mature, 5 fertilized, but only 2 were good enough to put in. Didn't want to wait until day 5 to see how they did, since we might lose both of them, so we put them in today. I TOTALLY thought that we'd transfer on Wednesday, so I was in complete shock when I went in (expecting to be sent home immediately) and was told we only have 2 and are putting them both in today. I'm glad we put 2 in. Hopefully they're getting to be close buddies, rollin' around together, looking for the perfect spots to implant.

PMA, ladies. I'm a bit nervous that I only got 2, but it only takes 1 right? My lining looks great, so that's a good thing. Bring on the most dreaded 2ww ever!

Soleil, so you're waiting for a +opk to get your iui then? cd13 is still early. When do you usually o?

 

[mrsmax]

Rosa - that is awesome. 2 embbies, a good lining a great PMA! Are you ready for the craziest two weeks of your life!! We are all rooting for you. Take it easy these 2 weeks hon and visualise a healthy baby (or 2!!). It only takes one and you have two. xx

Soleil - sending loads of PMA your way!!

 

[rosababy]

thanks mrsmax. Yep, I have a feeling this 2ww is going to SUCK! Trying to keep pma and to keep busy. I'm home until Friday, which is nice for resting purposes, but bad for thinking purposes.

 

[Soleil Breeze]

UGHHHHHHHH. Tomorrow evening will make 5 days since we had sex! What does this mean? I called the fert. doc. and left a message. Hopefully someone will get back to me ASAP. Last cycle I got a positive on CD 14, but this cycle - so far at least - CD 14 is a bust. LAWWWWWDD. I hope to God I get a positive by tonight so I go in for the insem. tomorrow. Now I'm all worried that they'll tell me we have to wait until next cycle because the sperm have been caged too long.

Things never, ever, EVER go the way they should in this conception business. UGGHHHHH again.

Rosa, my friend, all the positive energy I have left at this point is being sent your way!

 

[Crumbs]

Just wanted to stop by and say I'm rooting for you Rosa and Soleil!

Rosa, this is it!
Soleil, I hope it all goes as planned this cycle and you don't have to wait any longer! FxFxFx!!!

 

[pink80]

I've got every thing crossed for you Rosa

Soleil - hope you get your positive opk tonight xxx

 

[hakunamatata]

for everyone!!!

 

[mrsmax]

Hi ladies

Soleil - hope you get the OPK! This is a crazy business!!

I stopped charting and OPking this month, but gave in about three days ago and took temp "just to confirm" O - but it was still low. Did an OPK and negative, same the next day and yesterday. I am on day 19 and I always O between 15 and 17!! Got a positive on OPK finally today - so back to bding for me tonight! I have a great feeling though - just glad I did temp in the end or I would have missed the window. So much for relaxing!!

 

[MsJMouse]

Good luck Rosa. Yay for two embies transfered.

Soliel - hoping you got your +OPK and everything went well.

Fx'd everyone.

AFM - still waiting to ovulate but normally don't until around day 19-21 but last month it was cd17 so made sure we got some bd in last night despite being exhausted. Still soo tired. Temps are really staying low this month but I think that might be cause my thyroid function is shite at the moment. Waiting on further blood test results to determine if the doc is going to do anything about it or if it will be a case of continuing to monitor it.

Happy weekend everyone. DH has just arrived home with takeaway dinner so I am off to eat!!!
