IVF February/March 2012

[Goldy]

Yes ladies went for my beta this morning and no result as yet but like i said not hopeful now as no symptoms now, breasts seem normal and i feel empty...still chickened in testing with FRER. Have been disappointed many times so just feeling OFF right now. Was told results will be communicated tomorrow.

Michelle, I did have pink wipe this morning which made it virtually impossible for me to test. Was actually crying so will update once the results are in... Was told that my clinic will call the following day after beta so maybe tomorrow will receive the call... Am just fed up honestly..

 

[michelle01]

Oh Goldy...I feel the EXACT same way!!! I feel empty too, my breasts seem normal again today and I cried plenty this morning and at work and anytime I start thinking about this. This is so much more emtionally draining then I ever expected. I am so exhausted that sitting at work right now, I wish I was home curled up watching TV. Maybe the pink stuff is a good sign...implantation bleeding??

My fingers are crossed for you for good news tomorrow.

Hey goldy.I understand how upset u r...but maybe u sh'd test.if it is good news...u'll be super excited...n if itsnt so good news(God forbid),u dont hve to be even more upset tmoro when they call.Lets be positive...not hving symptoms means nothing,no symptoms means all those artificial hormones are out of our bodies.

 

[Pink gerbera]

Hey ladies

Goldy/Michelle I have my fingers crossed for you both! Keep positive

Hockey I'm not poas at all my, my dh says not allowed until I go to do test at the hospital on Wednesday. Keeping positive though (although it's hard sometimes)!

The cramping has been a lot less today, I'm 5dp5dt today. My boobs were sore but today they just feel different but I recon that's just the progesterone!!

I think we're all doing well ladies! No one who hasnt been through this will ever get how hard it is but regardless we must stay strong!

Baby dust to all xxx

Ladies.....So I tested and its the BIGGEST & FATTEST OF NEGATIVES not even a hint of faint positive. Have just buried myself in work and taken extra 6 hours overtime to punish my body for not responding well. and waiting for the dreadful phone call!!!

 

[Pink gerbera]

Oh no Goldy, I'm sorry

I think you need to look after yourself and not punish yourself. It's not your fault. Wait for the call tomorrow and then give yourself time to digest whatever the RE says to you.

I am so sorry Goldy I am really hoping that its just still too early for the hpt to pick it up; which one did you test with?

 

[Goldy]

Clearblue... Michelle I know my body.. its definately over. I dont feel anything but empty.. will update when the call comes!! I just want the AF to start so I can move on.

 

[michelle01]

I am so sorry Goldy; life is just so unfair sometimes

 

[babydrms]

Goldy! So sorry, I also just "knew" when it was over (last cycle)...life is so unfair.


My fertilization report sucks...Out of 20, they performed ICSI on 18 and only 8 made it. Last cycle I had 11 embryos from 16...this cycle just sucks all around.

 

[sienna1]

Goldy, hang in there. I'm sorry about the test.

Babydrms, your body has gone through so much in a short amount of time, hope all 8 grow well.

Michelle- I can't believe they changed the date on you, it's exasperating.

I know several ladies have posted about having mild OHSS symptoms. How many days did you feel the worst? Today is day 2 after retrieval and not feeling 100% (yesterday I felt great).

 

[Lucie73821]

Sending your way Goldy.

for them changing your test date Michelle! Hang in there!

Babydrms, I'm sorry the report wasn't as good as you wanted. But I've got my fingers crossed that all 8 continue to grow, grow, grow!

Sienna, I had mild ohss and today is the first day I've felt close to 100% (my ER was last Friday).

 

[michelle01]

Babydrms - sorry you did not get the report you expected. Hopefully they continue to grow; you only need one!! Fingers crossed for you.

 

[Seoul]

Goldy- Sorry for your negative

Babydrms- I know its not what you expected but we just have to hope those 8 are the best quality ever I have my fingers crossed for you!

Sienna: I felt really bad 3 days after retrieval with OHSS then was fine the next 2 days except the night of the 4th day (night before my transfer) where it got really bad I was even throwing up day of transfer was better but at night again really bad and today not so good either. If your starting to feel better still make sure you take it easy i think i tried doing too much and it made it 100 times worst now I'm on couch rest for the rest of my 2ww.

AFM the official count was 43 retrieved (Crazy) none fertilized on their own as they thought so they did ICSI then 38 fertilized 25 made it to 5 days and they transferred 2 he said of very good quality not sure the rating the other 23 they are waiting 2 more days and then freezing I will find out in a couple of days how many make it to freezing. Hoping they stick and that my belly doesn't keep growing from the OHSS. Did any of you have cramping the day after transfer?

Good Luck to everyone waiting to test to all

 

[babydrms]

Thanks for all the encouragement - I don't mean to be a brat, I know some people get even less...this stuff is all just so difficult.

Did any of you have cramping the day after transfer?

I was very crampy after transfer, the doc even perscribed Valium to try and relax my uterus. I hope your cramping gets better soon!

 

[sarah10380]

Goldy - i'm sorry

 

[babyhopes13]

Sorry to go off subject, but I totally woke up with a sore throat this morning?? I live in Florida and it had not been cold at all, so it can't be from the weather. Any thoughts???

Hi Jappygirl, I live in Florida too and I have a sore throat for about 3-4 days now! That's weird!It may be a bug?

 

[Mmleo]

oh my Goldy,am so sorry...dont know what to say..stay strong..it just sucks.now i am so scared.

babydrms..some p'ple hve much less it is true.i hope all the 8 make it

 

[michelle01]

Seoul - that is great, congrats being PUPO!!! I have had cramping every since my transfer!

babydrms - we are all here to support each other, so if you need to rant, rave or vent, this is the place to do it!! I have been so down the past couple days, and especially after they moved my beta from today to Monday.

AFM...took yet another test this morning and they are just starting to fade; today is 6 days after my hcg booster and they say it should be gone by day 7. I guess by Sunday I will know for sure, but I feel so empty right now, my boobs are not full, swollen or sore anymore at all and I have only had cramping. And now on top of everything, I woke up with a sore throat this morning and feeling like I got hit by a truck Think today I will be going home early from work to get some much needed rest!!!
