Jan- welcome! i responded to your other post too ;-) x

Cvaeh- Dont lose hope yet! its still early days and most women who get a bfp have period pains and sharp cramps etc so hang in there. I asked what grade our embie was and we were told a 4. x

Bugs- Aah lovely to see u back here! i often wondered about you. I pray we both get our bfps and have a new year full of joy to look forward to x

Hiya Laura, Melbram, Susie, Nici, Foxey, Del and gang x

AFM- I am sooo nervous about testing tomorrow! dh is back from work very early so im going to do it then. Eeeeek! xxx

Welcome and jan and hi to the rest on the gang. Happy haloween people

Cveah, hang in there honey it could be implantation pains. My sis told me she got period pains as though AF is coming throughout both her pregnancy. I dont no if that was good or bad cuz she was in labour for a full 15mins and she said the pain was just like really bad period pains. She had no time to take anything for the pain and her DH missed the birth. Her second pregnancy she was in labour an hour and had paracetomol. Knowing my luck i will be in labour for days and have every form of pain relief under the sun, making up for what she didnt use.

Anyways enough of me babbling on Sarah have you pee'd yet?

Hi everyone

Hope you're all well.

Sarah, any news??

Lots of luck with et Nicki.

Hi to everyone else

 

[cvaeh]

hi everyone.

sarah- i have been thinking of you all morning. how did the test go?

i've woke up this morning and did my bum pellet and about an hour later i had a really dodge stomach. i just had to go. i am worried i will have absorbed the pellet even though they say thirty mins. i think it's either a bug or reaction to pellet. has anyone else experienced this when on the cyclogest?

[babies7777]

Hi Ellen, hope you're ok, i havent started my bum pellets yet so im not sure but i think you're right and sounds like a side effect.

 

[babies7777]

Im so happy dh got the afternoon off on wednesday to come to the injection appointment with me. I want him to see how its done incase i chicken out and need him to do it for me. He just tells work his wife has a hospital appointment and books it as holiday but i do wonder what they think as its the second one now and there will be 2 more he def has to attend. His boss said let them know if he needs extra support but they have no clue what is going on.
How does your dh's or partners deal with the work situ and attending appointments, does their work place mind?

 

[BabydustxXx]

My dh is self employed so i dont have much of a problem. My only issue is that he does nights and so swapping shifts around can be a problem. I had to book my hospital appointments off at holiday at my work place as there is nothing for women going through ivf. Iv been signed off until xmas so i can save all my holidays and take them all in the summer

Hi ladies HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Thanks everyone for all your lovely lovely kind words and for thinking of me!!!
I am gettin quite nervous now and want my embie back where it belongs!! I am worried about what they will tell me at the hosp as regards to grading and am hoping the transfer will be smooth and it goes right where it should be.

I have also been having slight cramps and hoping that its just due to egg collection and nothing else!?!?!?!
Roll on 3pm!!!!

Sarah-Any news hunni?? have been thinking of you all morning!! xxx

Babies-good luck for Wednesday hunni!! Its a breeze honestly!! My OH told his work everything and they are really good and let him have time off when he needs it. Apart from today!!! He has a really important meeting to go to and cant get out of it so am on me own for transfer! Aww well!!! xxx

Cvaeh- I wouldnt worry hunni i think that pellet will be well absorbed by then! I had to do mine in Sefton Park last nite!!! Mortified!!! hahaha Went to watch the Lantern Parade and realised just in time that it was time so me and OH had to hide behind a tree whilst i put it wher it should go!! hahaha!!!! xxx

Hi to Laura, Del, Jane, Susie, Melbram, Foxy, Bugs and anyone i have forgotten!!

Dont be disheartened yet, they give u a test date for a reason, i know its hard but its best to wait until the date they give u. fingers crossed u get ur bfp in a few days hun. thinking of u xxxxx

 

[susiesue]

Awww Sarah hun I'm so sorry it wasn't better news today I know there is not a lot I can say to make it better but foxey is right about the OTD, it does depend on timing of implantation and how fast your hcg rises. Someone in my work got 5 bfn's after her Af was due before she got a bfp. Try and keep strong, it's not over till it's over. Lots of love xxx

Yeah my tummy was really off, the side effects are horrible. I had what you are describing. If you do them up the bum they are absorbed quick so try not to worry x

 

[nicijones]

Sarah -

Afm- I am now PUPO with a lovely 8 cell embie!!!! Feel very surreal at the moment and just gonna rest rest rest!!!

Hi to all the ladies!!

Lots of love

[Melbram]

Africa: sorry to hear that - i will keep everything crossed that you get your BFP in the comming days


Congrats Nici

 

[cvaeh]

Hi everyone

sarah - So sorry to hear it wasn't good news for you today. But you are three days early and a lot can change in that time. Try to keep positive and focus on testing OTD.

Nic - Thats fantastic news. Sounds like you have a nice strong embie on board.

I am really annoyed with myself. I think I've stopped my embie implanting. I was lying down and got up really quickly to answer the phone and I felt a stretch low down and on the side. has anyone else had this or heard of anyone that has stopped implantation or done damage???

 

[Del xx]

Africa,I'm keeping my fingers crossed 4 u hun,there's still hope xx

Nici,congrats hun,good luck with your 2ww xx

Cvaeh,how r things with u today? I'm hoping to start treatment again in june/July,lots if tests to be done first. Xx

Foxey,not long 4 u now! Exiting! Xx

Hi to the rest of the gang,hope ur all well x

 

[BabydustxXx]

Sarah - be strong and wait until OTD.

Nici that is great news, put ur feet up and let the little one snuggle up.

 

[babies7777]
