Yes I've also had some cramping here and there like mild af type pains. Comes and goes. Some slight nausea just after transfer and again a bit tonight although that could be due to the nachos and jalapeños I had at the cinema! I just can't visualise a bfp no matter how hard I try. Already planning my next go which will likely have to be at dundee :( I bloody hate the 2ww!!
Good luck to us all! Xx
 
Minno I'm hoping so much you don't have to have another go and at Dundee, oh no. I hated that place in the end! Nothing like the GCRM!

Have you ladies been doing anything differently in the 2ww? I'm trying to eat lots of fresh fruit as I don't normally. I find it hard so I've made up huge bowls of fresh fruit salad and munch away on that all day.

I'm also making sure I eat my veggies too, as again I'm not good at that apart from at main meal times.

Bring on the BFP's!
 
Hi girls, just wanted to say im thinking of you all!! I know how horrible this part is but hang in there you never know what might be round the corner!!

I hope you all get your :bfp: xxx
 
Wallie, I know, Dundee sucks, but it's affordable and we could have a better shot of getting more eggs with them as its a fresh coordinated cycle rather than egg bank. May give us a chance of frozen embies too. It pains me it really does but we couldn't afford another full go a gcrm. Will have to email Anne McConnell to ask where we are on the list - bet it hasn't even moved in the last few months!
As for doing things differently, not really, cut out caffeine ( a big deal for me cos I love my coffee) and ate pineapple core for first few days after transfer as its supposed to help with implantation. Who knows if it makes any difference - probably not. Oh, and I am resting more than I normally do when I get the chance. But honestly I think it will be bfn come Friday :(
 
Aww Minno! Don't say that!

As to waiting list at Dundee, I got a letter 2 weeks ago saying I could cycle within next 1-3 months. That works out as 18 months wait. Unfortunately since I've moved out of Perthshire I'll not be taking them up on their NHS cycle! I've to see if I can be transferred to Aberdeenshire NHS waiting list....
 
Sounds like a lucky escape to me Wallie he he. We've now been on the list 14 months with them for private DE ivf. Every time we spoke to them they just kept saying it'll be another 12 months til treatment - never got any shorter! I know they received extra funding from the Scottish Govt to cut wait times for ivf so you'd think at least some of those ladies coming thru would be egg share? I'm scared to call AM to ask as it just depresses me when she says it'll be another year. Will have to do it soon though!

Hopefully you won't need any more goes Wallie and Miles is nestling down there nice and cosy as we speak! Xx
 
Yeah lucky escape right enough :rofl: I can't stand that woman AM, for someone in her position and what the whole department is about, she's a right nippie sweetie!

I've had a couple of calls from the GCRM today and they are all so lovely. Why can't Dundee be like that, they didn't even acknowlege that I'd been through on other cycles before and that was for 2 IUI's and 3 IVF's but nope nurses never said anything about seeing you before and hope it works out this time, etc. They really need to take some tips from the GCRM staff!
 
I know, I love Gcrm. They called me today to ask how I was but I missed their call cos I was at work. The staff at treatment time were lovely too. I'd love to have another go with them but at 6k a shot its just too pricey to do again so soon. Mind you, by the time we get a slot at Dundee we might have saved enough to stick with Glasgow lol xx
 
I hope you don't have to go near Dundee for the treatment. I agree about the GCRM staff; I missed a call the other day and one of the embryologists had left a lovely voicemail to check I was doing ok and to wish me the best of luck. They really are second to none, but I suppose service like that comes at a price! x
 
True, but it doesn't cost anything to be nice!
 
Wallie, you're so right. It's just the littlest of things but makes such a difference.

Sand, how are you doing? Are u planning on testing tomoro. I almost caved and tested today as I wanted to just deal with the upset of bfn and move on from it, but in the end I never. Still a wee bit brown cm which is really convincing me I'm out. I will be very surprised if af doesn't show soon.
 
Hi Ladies

Stay positive Minno maybe the tinged CM was implantation :winkwink: Fingers crossed for you!

I'm on day 6 of the Noresthisterone, Prostap injection a week today. Think its made me a wee bit emotional-I cried cos I forgot to get macaroni cheese for lunch yesterday :wacko:

Also, I'm on CD26 and I have EWCM-LOTS of it (sorry, TMI), is that normal for being on Noresthisterone? Did any of you ladies experiece that?

:dust: For our Chrimbo :bfp: 's!!
 
How are you ladies doing Minno and SS? I hope you're both okay. When are you both due to test?

Foxy, I can't remember anything about EWCM when on Noresthisterone. I'm sure it's just your body dealing with the drug but at CD26 you'll have ovulated this cycle anyway. Any doubts just call the clinic, they're truly fabby there. :hugs: Good luck with your cycle.
 
I've chickened out of testing today!! I'm too scared to see bfn and I think I would end up a mess going for my blood test tomorrow. By this time tomorrow I'll know, so just going to wait it out! How you holding up Minno?

Wallie, how you keeping? Have you noticed any symptoms?

Foxy, I can't remember getting ewcm while on norethisterone? I did get loads during stims though! I think it's all normal, just your body reacting to all the different hormone levels. You must be so excited - almost time to get going! It flies in from the stage you're at x
 
Ah so otd is tomorrow! Great stuff! Last time I only tested once I saw a little bit of AF coming and then just hours later I got my faint bfp from the clinic, but I knew I was out. Not sure what I'm going to do this time.

How are you bearing up, do you have an inkling?

I'm 9dpo today. Yesterday and today I've felt a bit sickly but it could be down to the pednisolone and clexane I'm on. I feel a tendancy to support my stomach and can't seem to relax my muscles down there properly :haha: Boobs are sore but they're always sore after ovulation. I'm wishing and praying that this works though, I'm going to be so excited if it does.
 
I'm not sure what I feel? Sometimes I think I'm definitely feeling different in some way, but then I remind myself that it's such a long shot. I just can't wait to get tomorrow's blood test now. For now I'm enjoying still being hopeful!

Those symptoms all sound promising Wallie! I'm so sure this will be it for you. I've a also had a weird tight feeling in my stomach, like I've did loads of sit-up's or something? Really hoping it's a good sign x
 
Good luck For tomorrow Sand! The fact your period didn't come today is surely a good sign!!! I have everything crossed or you!!! Xx
