Finger, toes, eyes, ears and legs crossed (as its only cd4) for you res!!

Thingymajigs · 04/05/2013 12:16

Not long to go now kitty. Smile Although I bet it feels a lot longer for you.
This is so exciting res. We'll be here for handholding during the 2ww.
I'm so dizzy today. This is a ridculously heavy AF. Think I might bring this up with the doctor actually. But its quite hard to judge if your periods are heavier than normal because whats normal?

kittykatsforever · 04/05/2013 11:46

Oh my god there's 3 little beans in you eeek so exciting though!
Nantwich same old, bar the m&s excitement obviously! Went there myself on thur for a piece of the action Wink

resipsa · 04/05/2013 10:59

Oh got all 3 on board as of 9am. Toughest 2WW yet starts here. And they give you a photo of the embies so you always have something even if it doesn't work.

resipsa · 04/05/2013 10:57

There's been a lot of activity on here.
Hi kitty - how's Nantwich? My mum is SO excited about the M+S food store! Can't believe you've only got 3 weeks or so to go. Time flies!

Any news red?

Sorry she got you thingy. Mine started coming earlier than expected (usual 30/31 day cycle) and just when I was about to start stressing, I had a 37 day cycle! Our bodies play us; they're mean.

How're you doing winkle? And kerry?

kittykatsforever · 04/05/2013 07:29

Hi winkle, hi red!
I'm ok thanks 36+3 so nearing the end, wishful had a little boy a few weeks ago aswell! Don't worry about the peeking, I understand, I got a bfp the same day as wishful but that was sadly a pregnancy I lost and although I was lucky enough to get pregnant really quickly after I still found it hard to read at every milestone she was at as it felt it should be me too
Red- I hope your wrong but understand why you have to protect yourself now, I will say though each pregnancy is different and I've only had implantation once out of 4 plus for that pregnancy bigger boobs was literally my only symptom, this time boobs stayed really small and empty feeling till end of the first tri so both times very different, I have fx for you anyway and although it seems shit I firmly believe you will both have your babies x

twinklestar2 · 03/05/2013 23:41

Hey kitty!

RedRobin1 · 03/05/2013 21:41

Hey kitty how are you doing? How far along are you? Sorry not been brave enough to peek into the graduates thread but its always nice to hear from everyone on the other side Smile

I only had brown spotting one day and then nothing the whole week. My boobs are deflating and I feel nothing, nada just the same old dread of AF arriving.

Small part of me hopes you are right! I will test on Sunday if I don't start spotting before.

kittykatsforever · 03/05/2013 20:44

Hello girls, just checking in to see how you lovelies are doing,
So sorry those bfps are not comming thick and fast but fx they are all comming in one big hit!
Res- that all sounds so exciting, not sure I'd dare have 3 put back just incase but my friend has just recently had her ivf twins
Red- think you could still be wrong about implantation, particullaly if its stoped altogether now? I had it and didn't feel any different to the point I'd started using ov sticks again 2 weeks later, I hope so!
Good luck to everyone else and sorry for everyone the bitch struck

RedRobin1 · 03/05/2013 19:05

Sorry thingy Sad early AF means an early start to next cycle.

RedRobin1 · 03/05/2013 19:04

kerry the pain sounds awful. Hope they can scan you and see if its the cysts Hope your last cycle on clomid is the bfp one..fx!

res I love reading your updates. The process sounds so exciting. Eeeek! 3 eggs is fab! The bfp is coming your way soon Smile

I have no AF yet and no way could that have been implantation because I just don't feel any different. Can't be bothered to piss on a stick as I won't let ttc make a mug out of me yet again...pride and dignity! Whatever little I have left of it!!! It's due on Monday so I guess it's now decided to take its time.

Thingymajigs · 03/05/2013 18:06

I get ovulation pain too which resembles period pains. So, like you, I assume I have cysts. Can you not go back to your doctor and ask? I'm going in to see another doctor soon as we have been trying a year. No idea what this next stage involves but I'd appreciate a scan.

KerryJewels · 03/05/2013 17:23

That is really awesome res...how exciting!!!Sorry thingy,better luck next month!!I dont know about this Clomid anymore...when I ovulate or AF arrives the cramps I get are horrendous...I could barely walk at work last night..same thing happened two weeks ago when AF was here...I know it's cysts...I just really wonder whats going on in there..so strange for doc to just say here you go..just take these and call me in four months if you don't get pregnant.The pain only lasts for approximately one day..with ibuprofen and Tylenol the pain subsides so I guess I won't worry too much,but it really is out of this world pain:( I hope and pray so badly it happened this month..Dtd twice yesterday even though I was in such pain....Good luck friends!!!

So sorry thingy :(

Res - that's brilliant. What if all 3 DO stick?!?!

Thingymajigs · 03/05/2013 16:23

AF has appeared early. This is new. Hmm At least I get it done with sooner rather than later so I can start trying again but maybe with a bit more effort this time.

Thingymajigs · 03/05/2013 14:47

Exciting! This is far more interesting than the natural approach. Can't wait for an update in a couple of weeks.

resipsa · 03/05/2013 14:23

Hi everyone. Update? Well, they pulled 8 eggs out of me, 5 were mature and 3 fertilised so if they don't perish, I'm planning on having all 3 put back tomorrow! Eek! By the way, the chances of more than one sticking are very, very low so this is just a belt and braces approach rather than irresponsibility.

Thingymajigs · 03/05/2013 07:15

That would be lovely. However, I've had another skin break out so I'm pretty sure its arriving on Sunday. Right when I have a huge wedding to go to of course. Still, I'm feeling quite positive about the future. Yesterday I stumbled across lots of stories of women suddenly finding themselves pregnant after years of trying and eventually giving up. So it can happen for all of us too.

twinklestar2 · 02/05/2013 22:31

Hopefully you won't need to up your game next month thingy :)

Thingymajigs · 02/05/2013 18:24

oh, no, sorry you're still waiting for AF, sorry red. Its tricky following this on my phone.

Thingymajigs · 02/05/2013 18:22

Glad it worked for you kerry. Most of your taste is actually smell so holding your nose works well.
Sorry to hear that she got you again red. Sad This process is so deeply unfair.
I'm thinking about upping my game next month, (currently on 12dpo). It was a poor effort this time which definitely won't help. I'll draw up a plan of action for DP. Grin I'm so glad I've got such an involved partner because it makes everything much easier and less awkward than it could be. He just laughs and then suggests more ideas. He's still refusing to give up his hot baths though.

KerryJewels · 02/05/2013 15:45

Oh and one more thing...I can't remember who gave the advice to hold your nose while you drink the grapefruit juice..but bravo!!!It really works!!!

Someday.....btw I wonder what ever happened to Someday,haven't heard from her in awhile?What a perfect screen name...reminds me to have hope;)That's hard to come by in this line of work~I really hope a miracle happens for us all...very soon for those of you that have been trying so long....I was with my husband 13 years before we had my daughter,we never tried to prevent pregnancy..it just didn't happen until it was suppose to I guess.My grandfather died,the next month BFP.Then three years went by not really trying to prevent pregnancy and suddenly my father in law passed away..I bet you can figure out what happened next..BFP.So I guess it's all in sweet time..but I'm kind of mortified in thinking someone has to die so I can have a child..hope it doesn't have to be that way this time around..and TIME,that's a word that scares me-I don't have much of it left in the ttc business:(
