Waiting to start IVF in January anyone else?

[FirstTry]

That's great, Libby! How many days has it been since retrieval?

 

[Jaybo]

Hi ladies,

Thanks for the well wishes. I've had a nailbiting couple of days waiting to see if my one little egg made it, with the clinic saying they would only ring if it was bad news! I'm sooooo happy to say my little trouper pulled through and I had it transfered back today (day 3). The embryologist said it was great quality. I know there's a long way to go but feeling so blessed right now to have made it this far!

Comfy - glad they saw a few more follicles on your scan. Hope they keep growing nicely over the next few days.

Mo - good luck today.

Libby - great news all your embies are doing well. Will you have your trasfer on Monday?

Beth - glad your ER went well, 8 is a fantastic number for 1 ovary! Hope they're progressing well.

Hi to everyone else, hope you're all okay.

Good numbers Libby. I heard a glass of red wine can help soften your uterus

Star, hopefully AF arrives soon!

 

[star25]

Yay jaybo! Definitely a little trooper, when is otd and will you be testing early?

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Jaybo, you are PUPO now! Congrats! Keep your feet warm, eat hot food (I ate a lot of soups), and take it easy

 

[Jaybo]

Thank-you! So glad i made it to PUPO!

OTD is 14/02. It's either going to be a really great, or not so great, Valentine's day!! I seriously doubt I'll be able to hold off till then though.

 

[MoBaby]

Jaybo that's great!! Congrats!

Scan today: I hace 36 follicles but 19 of them look ready. The others do not so expecting around 19 retrieved. I don't play by the rules so who knows. My e2 doesn't always correlate. I could end up with more. I trigger tonight at 10pm for 10 am Monday retrieval. I just hope and pray we get a bunch because we need a bunch to make a little due to crappy sperm.

 

[star25]

Exciting mo, sounds like your doing really well, good luck for Monday!

 

[Jaybo]

Yay Mo, how exciting! Hope a few more mature for Monday's ER. Good luck.

 

[Libby4snoopy]

Mobaby- that sounds great, good luck for Monday.

Jaybo- Im so happy for you. Beenthinking of you over the past 2 days since were at the same stage.

Thanks for the well wishes. Were planning for transfer on Monday so cant wait now. Whats the guidelines for testing afterwards (I know Im getting a little ahead of myself but cant help it)

 

[star25]

Libby, clinic will give you a date for testing but up to you if you like testing and want to earlier, if you had hcg trigger you dont want to test too early in case it's a false positive
I think ive decided I'm going to wait for official test date then go to clinic for blood test as im too scared to test, also I dont want to get a bfn then have to travel to clinic for bloods knowing what the answer will be anyway!

Beth -- 8 is a great number for one ovary! Hoping for a great fert report!!

Libby -- Great news! Keep growing eggies!!

Jaybo -- AHHH!! So happy your little eggie made it to transfer. What a fighter!

Mobaby -- Sounds like a great scan! Monday will be here before you know it.


Hope everyone has a great weekend!! xx

 

[Comfycushions]

Jaybo, Yay you're pubo!!! So so happy for you.

Mo and Libby good luck for Monday.

Happy Saturday to everyone else.

Bit sad over here. DH's cat has heart failure and a tumour and the vet thought she was unlikely to survive the weekend. She's still really chipper though and not in any pain so we've brought her home to spend some quality time with her.

Oh, no! so sorry to hear about DH's cat

 

[CMo]

Jaybo that's amazing news. Hope your resting now.

Libby and mo, not long now!!!

Comfy so sorry to hear about your cat xx

Just want to throw something out to you ladies..... Have any u heard about eating pineapple core to help implantation? Any thoughts??

I'm with you on team no poas! I did that my first IVF and it drove me insane. I want to try as much as I can to eliminate that stress this time, but I am sure it will be hard. I think I will test on my otd, though.

 

[Mrs W 11]

What does otd stand for beneath? I've been pregnant twice and both times I've known before I did the test because of how I felt.... So I guess I probably won't test before hand because ill probably know already deep down.

Jaybo - yay!! I'm so glad your eggy made it, congrats on being pupo! Most important thing is to relax as much as you can now. I hadn't heard about having hot foods helping, what do they do?

Libby that's fab news, not long to wait now! I don't think one beer would make any difference, especially not between now and Monday, go for it, it might relax you. I didn't have a wine last night, but I really want one tonight haha!

Star - complete seems good so far! Yes I imagine it can be tricky living on the island when you want to get back over to the main land, especially in bad weather!

Comfy so sorry to hear about your cat. I lost my beloved cat just over a year ago from kidney failure. I had taken him to the vets for drinking a lot and they said he was fine. A few months later I had to have him put to sleep and was devastated, so I understand how sad you feel. Sending hugs to you.
