Waiting to start IVF in January anyone else?

[Mrs W 11]

Hey lovelies!

I've got lower back ache as well today so I feel,a bit better knowing you guys have it too. I was wondering if it could be progesterone linked? For me, it's usually a bad sign that af is on the way soon but it seems a bit early for that and I always assumed my lower back ache and short luteal phase were caused by low progesterone. Who knows. Ooh lizzie just read it is usually a bad sign for you but was good this cycle so that's good news!!

Star and bump I wonder how come we don't all have the same progesterone. They did tell me the utogestren was new. Anyway tmi..... But loads of it has been leaking out today and I haven't had it as bad before. Not sure if I'm coughing it out as got an awful cough! Ahhh the glamour!

Mo that's all sounds great! So glad you are almost ready to go again!!

First I hope et went well today and you are resting up!

I have so many odd symptoms at the moment but I'm chalking them all down to the progesterone and high hormone levels as I'm only 4dp2dt. My blast should be hatching today!! Anyway I've got dull lower back ache, mild crampy aches, thirsty, lots of seeing due to drinking so much water and sensitive teeth. Oh ladies the teeth!!!!!! Has anyone got/had this?? I literally cannot brush my teeth and today I had to give up eating an apple as they were so sensitive. Googled it and it seems yep it's progesterone. Sent hubby to buy sensodyne and hoping it works or I won't be cleaning my teeth for at least the next week!!!

Who is testing early and when are you going to test?!

I cant wait to start symptom spotting with you girls!!!

 

[Mrs W 11]

Won't be long beneath!! Is your embie update tomorrow? X

Yes =)

 

[Aurora CHK]

Ooh I never knew about teeth and progesterone but I've had that this month !

 

[Bumpsparkle]

Mrs w, hopefully it's a good sign we've all got backache!

I'm still on the crinone becoz I ordered it back sept/oct time for my fresh cycle but only using it now due to that cycle being a freeze all. I have heard from a friend who did a Jan cycle that they were now using a new type of progesterone. I think star might be in the same situation from Oct? I had quite a bit of leakage this morning, some tinged with pink which I'm hoping just comes from an irritated cervix from transfer. The things we put up with!!

First, hope transfer went well today
Beneath, fingers crossed for 2mrw's update!

At the moment, I don't think I'll be testing early, but with my poas history I'm likely to cave on Mon (6dp5dt)!!

Thank!

The PIO isn't the funnest even though it's not so bad so far, but the Crinone was pretty yucky!! For some reason, I always got AF 2-3 days early on Crinone too. I feel like maybe my body just didn't absorb it well, I don't know, so I am kind of glad I'm on PIO this time even though I didn't want to be! lol

 

[Mrs W 11]

Omg aurora isn't it awful?! For me it's like nails down a blackboard, physically can't clean my teeth!! X

 

[lizzie78]

My teeth are the same! I thought it was just me lol xxx

 

[FirstTry]

I'm just heading home now. Must have been the last transfer of the day. I'm PUPO!!!

It went well and I did acupuncture before and after. The only imperfect part was that only 85-90% of the cells in the blastocyst survived the thaw. I think it was 95% with my DS. Oh well, hoping s/he is a fighter and is able to latch on and thrive!

Does anyone know what 85-90% cell survival means for success rates?

Girls finally making it to collection tomoz, so excited to finally feel some relieve from these follies and they growth. 2days ago I had 12 at the desired size and 5 not too far behind. In comparison to only 5 follies last try. So hoping for lots more little eggs then my 2 last go.

Am I officially the last to collection? Feels like iv been undergoing this cycle for ages.

Congrats to those that have now officially became pupo and looking forward to all the BFPS

 

[MoBaby]

Good luck!!

 

[amoreamy]

Good luck with collection 19!

Congratulations on being pupo first!!

Beneath, I'm looking forward to your news tomorrow

Mrs W the teeth thing is a new one on me, but I've had no experience with progesterone. I hope the new toothpaste works for you!

My temp went back up and higher than before so I'm hoping my chart turns triphasic

 

[lizzie78]

19 - good luck today!!

First - PUPO - yay!! Sorry I dont know about survival rates my clinic didnt give me that sort of information. If it didnt have a good chance though I wouldnt have thought they would have transferred it? Or would at least have warned you. I say try not to think about it (Leave Dr google alone!!) and enjoy being PUPO

Hope everyone else is ok?

Day 3 of this horrid headache for me - please please dont let it be AF trying to break through the Progesterone xxx

 

[CMo]

19 good luck today. It'll be over before u know it.

First congrats on being pupo!

Lizzie sorry about the headaches. When is your scan?

I've still got cramps going on! I totally know I'm out even at this stage. Just feels like torture having to wait another whole week!!

 

[star25]

First congratulations on being pupo!! when is otd? I'm not sure on the percentage but it still sounds good and I bet he/she is a strong little one xx

Mrs W, I am the same as bumpsparkle, I've still got my crinone from Octobers ivf, the doctor did ask if I was taking the one you were on and I must have just looked a bit confused at him because Claire the nurse answered for me and said I was on crinone, thank god because I started to panic I wasn't taking something I should have been!
sensitive teeth sound horrid, I haven't had that, going back to the lower back ache, which I haven't even got anymore, I usually get it the day before af so it would have been early for me to get it. xx

Bumpsparkle, the pink tinge is likely from transfer or the crinone, I'm getting so impatient now but as time goes on I'm also getting more anxious. xx

Beneath, good luck for embie update today! xx

Lizzie, hope the headache goes away, sure its all those lovely hormones racing around your body causing it, sending hugs xx

Amore, great news on the temps! any other symptoms? xx

Ilt, hope you and babies are well, looking forward to next scan! xx

Cmo, how are you? any symptom spotting yet? xx

mobaby, hope you are well and times goes quick so you can start soon xx

Aurora, hope all is well with you and little one too xx

comfy, libby, still thinking of you both xx

Afm, not really feeling a lot, couple of tiny tiny twinges yesterday but that's it, nothing today, I just want to feel more! xx

 

[star25]

sorry 19 didn't see your post on next page, hope all goes well today and you will soon be feeling relieved xx

 

[CMo]

Star just got the constant cramping going on. I just know af is going to show her ugly head and that I'm out.

 

[star25]

ohh no cmo its too early to tell that, lots of ladies get cramping, from reading the success thread it looks like the ladies either had cramping as their main symptom or some had none at all and didn't feel anything any different which I'm trying to focus on, keep positive xx

 

[amoreamy]

cmo, like star says it's usually the main symptom people state after getting their bfp. Chin up lovely xx

Ladies, I'm actually feeling quite worried today. Once I got up I saw that my tummy has gone down quite a lot, and then I got some quite extreme dizziness. I still feel dizzy now. Has anyone heard of this? Shall I ring my clinic?
