Hey Ladies!

So, last night I could barely sleep. It seemed like I woke up every hour. I was so nervous waiting to hear if any of my embryos were still growing. I finally got the call this morning that all 3 of my embryos were still growing! YAY!!!

I did have to make some decisions on how to proceed. I have previously posted that it would be dangerous for me to have a twin pregnancy. Having said that, my doctor wanted me to consider putting in two embryos. I couldn't even believe that I had 2 to choose from given the fact that my entire cycle was almost cancelled last week! In truth, it will be very difficult for me to get my BFP at all. It would be SUPER difficult for me to get a BFP with twins. My doctor gave me a less than 5% chance of twins at this point. By the way, in my age group, 38-40, it is common practice to put back 3-4 embryos. I had to decide whether I was ok with that 5% twin risk. The other consideration is that this is my last chance using my own eggs, and I have said from the beginning that I wanted to give it my best shot.

SO, after my fertility doctor talked to my maternal fetal medicine specialist, and everyone got on the same page, I made my decision. SO, as I sit here, I have TWO embryos waiting to snuggle in! I feel comfortable with my decision and know that the chances of twins is so small. I am just praying for a healthy pregnancy and hoping that the golden embryo will snuggle in. I will have a blood test in 10 days, but know that I will cave to testing at home before that! Thanks for your support!!!!

omg omg omg omg omg im so excited for you Jenn!!!!!! Twins hopefully FX'd pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee be sticky eggs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I can understand it is a tough decision and maybe if you tried one and it failed but with 2 you may get one fail and one stick.. or blessed with 2 sticking.. so I am praying that you get excellent news in 10 days time.. hopefully this will all be good news and in 9 months we get to see your baby photo's too xxxxx

Becks im so glad you have ovulated, I done another test this afternoon it didnt look as positive so will do one lunch time tomorrow well today Thursday.. my chart and phone app say saturday, maybe I am just coming close.. x

Jo im so glad your well and your keeping busy.. we do miss you here... so glad you have still popped in we are all still hoping for miracle x I was looking at a FF chart and woman there had loads of problems early menopause etc she was 47 and no meds managed to get pregnant with boy.. so there is always hope xx

AFM it's 1.30am im not tired now.. I was soooo tired later on this afternoon I fell asleep on sofa sat upright... anyways we managed to BD once.. now a bit TMI.. I used conception plus and mooncup..other half as been in work since 6.45am so he was knackered..so he fell asleep and im wide awake.. so I have quickly ran downstairs and propped my butt up in the air with cushions under my butt so that the mooncup can flow it back to my cervix along with the conception plus... so my pelvis is tilted up.. and in 20 mins I will lay on my tummy for 30 mins.. all whilst typing so I am getting an all around covering of cervix as mine is tilted lol... things we do hey.. wont get another chance until tomorrow (Thursday) night now

My daughter sent me new photos of my Beautiful Granddaughter today... im so blessed to have a beautiful granddaughter but she lives 200 miles away and that upsets me..she is making me more broody!!

Crystal how are u hun

Lisa lovely photo. Caitlin is certainly beautiful and such a cute smile x

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks Jo but its normally more for us plus as I speak someone is working on our front door replacing panes of glass and repairing it. Hes had to smash out the panes and theres glass everywhere And there's a plumber in the bathroom replacing the radiaotor so we are stuck in the bedroom. My stress levels are sky high xxxx

 

[josie1234]

Aw bless ya. Cant even sneak a quicky in?? Lol. Sorry shouldn't joke. Hope it all gets sorted soon xxxx

 

[Soanxious]

Tilly aww it must be horrible... My son has never gone away and only nights away he has had are when im in hospital for one thing and another.. he is almost 15 we are close.. I would miss him like crazy too..

Nightmare Becks, but your BD more than me and wow thats some major work going on in the house...!! all with small kids and TTC too no wonder your feeling stressed.. deep breath.. this time next week will be different .

Fi I am so glad you're ok after your scare.... must of been frightening...

I joined this a few days ago, they send you a text once a month to remind you to check and they have instructions etc... share it with your friends maybe? it was set up by a lovely girl Kris who was diagnosed young with breast cancer it has since spread but she has set this site up to help others... she has a documentary on tv few nights ago should be on bbc iplayer or on demand it's called Dying to live. but here is her website.. all should check and this site reminds you by texting you

AFM not happy with DS... he put black show polish on his shoes this morning and walked into living room.. on my cream/beige carpet and now black lines.. they can stay there until he is home from school and he can scrub it..

 

[Soanxious]

Jo im glad your still around xx

So has anyone got holiday plans this year? I have a house to do up so nothing planned for me.. no £££££££ but will be doing our day trips or overnights away thing is with Britain its Rip off Britain and everything costs so much... wish I lived in Spain.. hotter and cheaper LOL

 

[crysshae]

Becks - I know it worries you, but Jo is right. It only takes one....and I'm glad to find out y'all are actually human. Fingers crossed you caught that egg if you've already ovulated. I hope all the repairs are finished soon so you can feel settled in your home again.

Tanya - I hope the black spots come out of the rug without a problem. Your GD is a cutie.

Tilly - Awww. I hope he has fun and you aren't overly stressed about it. They grow up way too fast!

Jenn - I hope everything works out perfectly for your pregnancy and your little ones.

Jo - Doing okay. Waiting and waiting. Lol.

Lisa - Can't believe it's been 7 months already.

 

[garfie]

Becks - Now did I read you right - just one BD - okay what about the others during the rest of the month? - a few times I have got pregnant we managed just twice (that was in a month - not a day )

Sparkle - good luck hun

Tanya - Oooops! Hope the black lines come out easy

Cry - When will you be testing?

So - We have two holidays booked we always have one just the two of us and the other one we take the children with us - they are usually a week long each. I did have a scare and I didn't like it thanks for the link I will have a look.

Lisa - Wow 7 months already

AFM - I had my acu lady on Monday and it appears (though I won't get to excited) that my temperatures are behaving themselves and I have a neg OPK today so looking much better than last month so far
