Mandy, definately sounds as though the additional testing was worthwhile. I can only guess how it must feel sitting out the TWW during an IVF cycle. My AF is due today or tomorrow and it's just complete torture every month, isn't it? I refuse to do any sort of testing unless I am late ( which is never!!!)
Glad your back Wallie:flower:
 
Good luck for the tww Mandy, hopefully great news is on the way to you!

Lovely to have you back Wallie, hope you're well after having some time away x
 
Morning ladies how are we all getting on?

Mandy fantastic news re your embys, i have everything crossed for you. How are you finding the 2 ww? When is testing day? How have you been feeling?

Wallie nice to have you back and hope you are keeping well, i think the chemical pregnancy is a positive defo and they can look at ways to improve implantation on your FET- Any ideas when you are planning that for? The fact its a blast also means the chances are a bit greater does it not?

Ive been doing really good, feeling sick quite a lot which i actually enjoy because it reminds me that my hormones are in the right place and doing what they should be. Ill be 10 weeks on Tuesday, cant believe it. Hopefully get my 12 week scan date in soon (really anxious about that)xxx
 
Hi jac, no real symptoms, 6 days since the transfer, I'm taking progesterone as vaginal pessaries and steroids till 12 weeks( god willing ...) am also taking blood thinning injections all prescribed by my consultant who specialises in recurrent miscarriages.. The steroids will mask any nausea and progesterone gives symptoms of pregnancy anyhow.... The steroids woke me at 3.30 am today and I was starving!! Lol... I am piddling alot during the night though but thats been since egg retrieval last week must still be a bit of bloating...A week today for my next gcrm visit for a pregnancy test, want to know NOW?....off on holiday next week so plenty planned to keep my mind of it....
Gosh 10 weeks...... Time flys so fast... Let us know when you get your 12 week scan date...
Hi to everyone else, WAllie how are you? Hey bluebell sand and pop xxxxxx
 
So glad everything is going so well.

I'm doing okay. I called the clinic this week to see if we really need a consultantion and the person I spoke to said its up to us. They've always been pretty pants at the other clinic and I sort of decided not too have one, but I'm thinking I should. I may arrange a telephone consultation and that'll save me a trip down.

Looks like I'll do the FET in September, only next month really. I have to call them on CD1 and take it from there.

I'm on a diet, trying to lose some weight I've gained. I feel better for it already and it's only a few days.

Now on countdown to leaving work on the 24th then on 31st we move house to Aberlour! All go!

:hugs: to everyone!
 
Hi wallie, I would arrange a consultation.... Get some feedback about last time and see if there are any tweaks that can be made for next time.. lots online recently about better success with frozen embryos and healthier more receptive uterus in natural cycles... You are going to be very busy with house move and winding down at work, be good to yourself and get lots of destressing and relaxation in..
I'm trying to take a leaf from my own book too and am just being a lazy sod..... Got oh doing all the heavy jobs and I can just about load the washing machine..I'm milking it to be fair!
 
Thanks Mandy. Yeah it's all go just now but it's hard packing up when you've still got a few more weeks to actually live in the house. We've done a bit more today but it's getting harder to know what to put away in boxes.

I think I will get a consultation. I'll probably phone back this week.


Yes put your feet up and milk it! Might just do the trick!
 
Hey there, we went for our fertility assessment last week and found the staff at the Gcrm to be really helpful. We got our results back on Thursday and my AMH was 10.5. However they have found what they think is a small polyp on the lining of my womb. I guess I will need to wait until I have my consultation to find out if this could be affecting my fertility or if I need to have it removed.

My husbands results came back at 3.7 mil count! We were gutted, his last 6 tests showed a count of 19 million with his last one a few months ago being 58 mil! We have no idea how this could have happened and are totally shocked! Anyway we have been recommended to do ICSI.

Our consultation with Dr Gaudoin is on Thursday, I'm hoping this week goes quickly!!!
 
Macca selinium is getting lots of attention just now for increasing sperm counts, vitamin c is also known to help xxx

Hey Mandy, yeah my husband takes those along with some other supplements. He also did a couple of accupuncture sessions and that's when his counts increased from 19 million to 58 million. To then drop to 3.7 million in the course of a month is just bizarre! I called the Gcrm and they said if my husband was unwell it could be that. He did have a bug that week so I'm hoping it's a one off!

I'm more worried about this polyp, after looking on the net there is lots about polyps affecting infertility and that if considering ivf you should have them removed! I wish Thursday would come quickly, I have so many questions for Dr Gaudoin!!!

This is the article I read macca.

I had a lst of questions written down for my consult also, best to leave no doubts or stones unturned....they are really lovely though and if you do forget to ask, just phone them someone always gets back to you promptly..xxx
 
Thanks Mandy thats a really interesting read!

I see you are in the two week wait just now, how is that going?? I have to admit out of everything that is the part I am dreading the most, I am so impatient and dont know how I will keep myself sane! xxxx
 
Hi macca, it's hell! Lol.
. Beta test is on Friday. On holiday this week so keeping busy, meeting friends etc... I am dreading bad news, last week I was upbeat and positive about it all, this week I am completely bricking it...... If this doesn't work I will be beating my head off a brick wall as I'm hoping that having had PGS screening and two chromosomally normal eggs transferred should be the winning concoction along with steroids progesterone and blood thinning.... injections this time.... If it doesn't work, I'm unsure where we will go with it.
 
God Mandy what a nightmare, I have just read your ticker and you have been through the mill! I really hope that you get good news on Friday, it certainly sounds like a positive cycle for you!

I will be keeping everything crossed for you, I really hope this is your time! xx
 
Ah thanks macca., we're all in the same boat, its a journey I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy... Thank
You for your kind wishes xxx
 
Good luck for tomorrow Mandy!!! Keeping everything crossed for you xxx
 
Thankyou guys I really hope its good news to post tomorrow.... X
