Mobaby, I'm in northern California.

BMW, I hope for good result.

19, congrats on the new job. Hopefully 2nd try is a charm.

Comfy, hopefully nurse said it's not a big deal.

 

[19yrOldGirl]

IlT what's ur current time then? I'm also going to watching for results

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

19, it's about 5:35 pm my time right now

 

[MoBaby]

So I have to wait until 4pm to hear your results!! I'm in the far opposite end of the country.

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Mo, for whatever reason, I thought you are in UK

 

[Aurora CHK]

Star, that sounds like a gorgeous birthday Hope you got spoiled rotten last night too.

Good luck with beta, ILT!

Hi 19 :wave:
How's everyone else?
AFM, I went big guns in the supplements, herbal teas and yesterday to try to induce but no dice.

But hey, I finally get to experience a genuinely late period although not for the reason I'd like!

Will call the clinic today for advice. Might mean another week DR, might mean another month or more though as my clinic is moving locations in late Feb so I'm on a tight timescale to get through this cycle!

Gah, whatcha gonna do, eh?

 

[Jaybo]

Grr how frustrating Arora! AF never does what she's meant to do - hope it doesn't mean you have to wait another cycle.

ILT - hope your beta test goes well today. How exciting!!

Hi 19 - I really hate injections too, but I've been surprised how quickly I've got used to them. Fingers crossed you get lucky this cycle.

AFM - I had my scan this morning, and my few follicles have been growing nicely over the weekend, and I didn't ovulate by mistake! So I have my trigger shot to do this evening for a Wednesday morning egg collection. Gosh I'm so nervous!

Comfy - mixing up those injections is such a pain, I'm sure all will be fine though.

GL to all the other ladies having tests today.

 

[lizzie78]

19 - glad you're back. I do think as much as injections aren't fun at least we know we got the stuff inside us ok so hopefully things will go smoother for you this time.

Comfy - Hope the nurses reassure you at today's scan?

Aurora - let us know what they say when you call them, keeping everything crossed that it will only be a week's delay

ILT - good luck for your Beta, looking forward to hearing the numbers

Afm, Scan went well Ovaries are quiet and lining is nice and thin. Start oestrogen tonight to build lining up, next scan a week on Weds so I'm guessing ET will be Mon 9th or Weds 11th Feb if one or two of my little snowbabies thaw ok

Hope everyone else is ok, especially those of you waiting before you can move onto the next step xxx

 

[star25]

Mrs w, my dh family live in bognor so we're often in Chichester for a bit of shopping

Lizzie, yay for the next stage, I cant wait til I'm there, got my estrogen tablets waiting in the cupboard

Ilt, cant wait to see if its twins! When will first scan be?

19 , hi again! congratulations on the new job, hope injectons going well, we will do anything for our babies

Aww comfy, injectons can be so awkward at times, hope u had a good snuggle in bed

 

[star25]

Aurora, hope af stops playing games soon, I hate all the timings and waiting with ivf!

Jaybo, pleased to hear all going well, you will be absolutely fine at ec

Xx

 

[19yrOldGirl]

Thanks girls I'm hoping everything goes smoothly and I'm going with the feeling of a lucky thread so good luck girls, its nice to be back in a thread with a few others iv spoke to before. Just shame were all back here again x

 

[FirstTry]

Jay I: exciting times! There's nothing to be nervous about.

AFM, I had a dream last night that we had 7 good embies. That's ridiculous considering that we tested 8, but I tend to have to dream about something good happening before it does. For instance, the night of my transfer with my DS (which was my third transfer, prior two failed) was the first time I'd ever dreamed that I was pregnant. I saw myself in a mirror looking about eight months along.

 

[Morana]

Star - Happy belated birthday!

Aurora - Strangely enough, I almost never dream (or at least I don't remember dreaming). In this case, not dreaming is definitely a blessing. I read a story somewhere that the girl was dreaming about holding her baby and the morning was that much worse for that...

AFM - Thank you all for concern and well wishes! I really appreciate it and wish you all the best and BFPs all around, it would just be amazing!
Made it through the weekend OK. OH was extra sweet but he's upset too. Men somehow process it all differently though as he seemed more upset by the fact that I was crying. Went for the beta this morning just to make sure and get our final result since I wasn't able to contact clinic over the weekend. My work will be OK as I'm recovered for the most part, the only dangerous time would be getting that results call from the doctor.

Hi Girls.
Sorry I havent posted in a while. I feel I dont have much to add as Im new to this and you guys are all very responsive and supportive of each other but I have been reading and keeping up to date with each of your journeys and silently wishing the best for each of you.
I am due to trigger tonight and scheduled for ER on Wednesday. My clinic monitors til day 5 beore transfer if possible. However to day the nurse said that transfer would be either late friday afternoon(day2) or Monday (day5) due to the weekend. Im a little confused by this. Have any of you had this experience? Im worried that the quality of the transferred eggs will be compromised by the fact that the clinic is closed on the weekend.

Thanks girls I'm hoping everything goes smoothly and I'm going with the feeling of a lucky thread so good luck girls, its nice to be back in a thread with a few others iv spoke to before. Just shame were all back here again x

Hi, hun!! We were on another thread together. Hope this is our lucky thread!!!

 

[Jaybo]

Thanks for the reassurance ladies! I guess I'm just worried with so few follicles that I'll get even fewer eggs and won't make it to transfer. But, as usual all we can do is wait and see how this pans out!

Morana - glad your okay hon. Do you have a follow up appointment booked with your RE?

Lizzy - great that your scan went well and you can move on to the next stage of your journey.

Hi Libby - we're on exactly the same schedule now. I'm triggering tonight with ER on Wed. My clinic is also shut Sun (but open Sat) so I was worrying too about them maybe waiting a day too long or transfering too soon. It does seem bizarre, you'd think for something like this they'd be open 7 days a week!! Good luck. How are you feeling?

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Aurora, hopefully AF shows up soon!

Jaybo, thank you! Glad to hear that you didn't ovulate earlier . 2 more days for EC!!! Exciting.

Lizzie, Thank you! February is just right around the corner. 5 more days .

Star, I am not sure when the scan is. I think at 6 weeks, which means in a couple weeks. If everything is alright, I'll be entering my fifth week tomorrow .

First, I hope your dream come true soon!

Morana, hang in there.

Libby, you are on the same schedule as Jaybo! . I think most clinic prefers to do 3 day transfer but some do 2 days. I do find that it's weird your clinic closes on the weekend. I had my transfer on Saturday. Anyway, I am sure the embryologist know what to look for. Everything is going to be ok. I did hear that some embryos do better in the uterus than petri dish. If you still feel concern, you should talk to your nurse/RE.

Afm, just got my bloodwork done a couple of hours ago. Now, I am trying to work to get my mind off it....mmm..who the heck am I kidding?? I can't sit still!

 

[beneathmywing]

ILT, eeeek! I cant sit still for you either!! Fx for a nice high number for you hun!!!

 

[star25]

Hi Libby, hope all goes well for you this week, sure you will be fine, I think every clinic is different, mine said they like to get to 5 day but I suppose depends, mine had to get to 5 days as was a freeze cycle x
