ST, Tinks, Chris, Zowiey and gang- hope u are all doing well x

AFM- I have been in agony all morning with indigestion in my rib cage didnt sleep too well last night either as so anxious about testing. I had a lovely time at the mexican place with the girls from my other forum tho and was encouraging to see 4 bumps as nice to see success stories. Just pray im one of them! a few of the girls had had 2-3 cycles before success though but got there in the end so that is hope for those ladies who had a fail and also for those of us who arent sure of the outcome yet xxx

 

[~Hope~]

Aq I hate indigestion. Hope you feel better now, consider it a practice run for later on in your pregnancy

AFM-we're moving house next saturday so I have started packing things up today! annoying having boxes everywhere. DH away-boo hoo!! however at least I can flick between strictly and x factor without him moaning, lol!x

 

[africaqueen]

ST- Yes we will have to arrange a meet for in the new year! would be lovely. GL with moving house x

I am very emotional tonight an cant stop crying over my mum and the anxious feeling of testing etc. Im a hormonal wreck!
Oh also wanted to ask(tmi sorry) has anyone found their sex drive has gone through the roof in the 2ww?! the past 2 days i have been like a cat on heat! honestly its unreal! me an dh are pretty frustrated as we cnt have sex too which makes it worse! lol. Its like im on Viagra! haha xxx

 

[schoolteacher]

yep Aq I was really gagging for it during 2ww, lol! he, he!!!
weird isn't it! during stimming I didn't want it at all, the thought of it was yucky!!!

 

[Traskey]

Yes, I had the same AQ, although our clinic sad that sex was ok during the 2WW We did wait though, until we were sure it hadn't worked!

 

[schoolteacher]

yeah we held off -didn't wanna risk anything! oh well.x

 

[Kelly9]

AQ I was the same, I think it's cause we were limited for sex during treatment then told after none during the tww and hubby and I are quiet active in that area, or were till the ms kicked in haha. Now I just want hubby to roll over and go to bed without pestering me! I hope your nerves calm down soon, I was the same.

I will post a pic I promise, I'm excited for the scan though they never told me if it was abdominal or internal so I don't know if I need a full bladder. I guess I'll have one just in case.

I just booked my son's first haircut (for right after my scan) I think I am more worried for that then anything! He's growing up to fast

 

[4everyoung]

Haha AQ--um YES...2ww drove me crazy. They said no orgasm so there was no outlet. But I survived...that said--it's insane going through it!

Congrats Doo! Huzzah!

I am headed to the dr tomorrow morning (assuming I can get out of my driveway...in MA about 6 inches of snow already, they say up to 15"...) for what I think will be my final visit before my trigger on Sunday night for a retrieval on Tuesday. Here's to hoping! :0)

 

[~Hope~]

Morning girls. Think I must be the odd one out as DTD hasn't even crossed my mind I think my brain has switched those receptors off because A I don't want to do anything to risk those little bean bunnies implanting and B I feel yucky down there because of the progesterone

Stacey fx for trigger tonight honey can't believe you guys have snow already!

I have a question for everyone on cyclogest. I'm on 2 a day. One in the am at 8.30 and onein the pm at 8.30. Decided to get up around 8 today and then did a double take when the clock downstairs said 7. Duh, they changed the clocks last night now I have to figure out what that means for my cyclogest. I think it should all be ok if I switch to the real 8 am today and then back to 8.30 tomorrow so technically I'm shifting it forward an hour. Really don't want to start having to get up at 7.30 for the bullet, although past experience shows I'll stay on summer time for at least a week (and so will my cats!) anyone else trying to wrap a tired brain around that riddle?

 

[schoolteacher]

Morning Hope! answered your question in your thread

Kelly-yay for scan day!

Stacey-wow snow!!!!!!! GL for trigger!!!!!xxxxxxxx

AFM-got loads of school work to do, and also said would make dh a steak and ale pie!xx

 

[4everyoung]

Hey ladies--so I'm one of 4000 customers in my city with power (16k without power). I'm lucky there! But I can't get anything other than a busy signal at the fertility clinic, and on the news they're saying to absolutely stay off the roads. Trees are falling down all over the place because of the heaviness of the wet snow on the almost fully-leaved trees. It's insane, and I'm not sure what to do. It'll take me at least 90 minutes to get there, if there aren't any trees covering the path between here and there. I'm not sure what to do...go in? Not? A little stressful!

 

[princess_1991]

girls just a quick one for me, tried postig yesterday but it wouldnt work nd I was on my way out and didn't have time to re write my post,
Went scarefest yesterday, had a good day minus the ridiculous queing! Was absolutely shattered by the end of it, by the time we got home DH wasnt feeling very good so just ordered a Chinese and went to bed, got up this morning DH is really Ill and I've managed to accumulate a black eye not a clue from where tho

still no proper af so did a test this morning - negative (asif I expected it any other way!) but still getting cramps, thing is I know people with pcos have irregular periods so would it be possible that if I had a cyst it would effect my af?

I'm now really worried about DHs sperm analysis cuz of him beig I'll and suffering a fever, I've read the fever can kill off sperm so we've tried to being it down to no avail

St - hope your well!!

AQ - darn indigestion, what can ya take for it if your pregnant, are you still able to take normal gaviscon nd what not??

4ever - can't believe you've got snow! I have no idea about what to do about your clinic, I suppose just keep trying to ring, it just depends if ya wanna risk driving hope you get through tho!

Doodar - your scan looks and sounds amazing!! Congratulations and I hope you have a happy and healthy 9 months!!

Hope - I know the time change has confused me too! Hope you get an answer on what to do with your cyclogest, I'm sorry I haven't got a clue however I did get told the other day id be on cyclogest too, hope your well

Trask - I know you said something about being down, please don't be too hard on yourself, like the other girls have said it's not your fault it's more pot luck then anything, let's hope your next cycle will be successful

Rosa - hope you are well and fingers crossed for your Xmas bfp

Lou - how are you?

Sorry girls my minds gone completely blank about who said what on the other pages, really sorry if I forgot anyone
Ok that didn't end up being a quick one

 

[schoolteacher]

Stacey-Do you think you can safelt get to the clinic if you allow loads of extra time and drive real slow? Or as princess said, just keep trying to get through and see what they say. Hope it all works out ok for you! xxx

princess-ypu must of been bashed by something on one of the rides!!! lol! not sure about the cyst thing but I have pcos and I have never had regular periods! ask the clinic maybe? Are they still ringing you tommorrow? or just waiting for appointment?

Oh no your poor DH! I think that the sperm that will come out is sperm that was made 3 months ago so it should be fine, however being ill can affect the count, I just don't know if that is sperm that is yet to be made (and so will have an affect in roughly 3 months time) or if that is the current sperm that's waiting to come out that can be killed off. Hope that makes some kind of sense!x

 

[princess_1991]

Thanks st I know what you mean, I'm not sure if there still ringing me tomorrow but I'm gunna ring them if they don't, and see what they say, I'm gunna google the sperm thing in a bit lol xx

 

[~Hope~]

Oh no Stacey. Did you manage to get through to the clinic?

Princess glad you had fun at scarefest. Hope your DH is on the mend. I thought the fever affected the sperm that would appear in three months rather than now. Definitely a question for the clinic though.

 

[africaqueen]

Hi girls.
Sorry for no personals.

Glad its not just me wanting to jump dh every minute! haha.

Well i am going to test in the morning and i am crapping myself! if i get a bfn should i still have hope for OTD or would it be a definite result at 11dp2dt? i am so scared but on the other hand cant wait for otd! its a nightmare. I am not feeling any signs that im pregnant so really dont know what to think xxx

 

[~Hope~]

I don't know AQ but the timings I read said an immediate BFP should be seen at 11dp3dt so there is a chance you could get a negative and then a positive a couple of days later I think. Are you going to use a frer with fmu? Good luck!

 

[Traskey]

I would imagine it would be fairly conclusive by day 13 AQ, but I don't know for sure. Maybe a tiny chance of getting a negative after.

Stacey, hope you make it to the clinic.

ST, good luck with your house move.

Lou/Hope, hang in there, not too long for you to wait now.
