woo hoo maybe for your new status of PUPO. I am so pleased for you lovely. I will be brooking through your 2ww and secretly wishing for twins

NoMaybeAboutIt · 08/07/2013 20:27

Thank you so much Loopy

I am overwhelmed by all of your good wishes Thanks

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 08/07/2013 20:20

And I second what munx said re maybe, you were here before me maybe, and here I am now with a 10 month old ds2. If there is any justice, you will get your BFP in about 10 days on a FRER! You have rarely had me me me moments and I think it really should be your turn. Universe do not mess with the brookers!

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 08/07/2013 20:14

Musical, I had to drop ds1 down to one feed per 24 hours before AF returned. I had one AF nov 11 which was about 2 weeks after dropping down to the one feed and then fell pregnant with ds2 in the dec. Still feeding 10 month old DS2 3-4 times per day and no sign of AF returning yet. So from feb 10 to current date I have had just that one AF. I have heard you are v fertile first few months after AF returns (dream will back me up!) but I did have to drop feeds in order to conceive DS2, and I fully expect to need to do the same when I want to conceive dc3 (think aiming at trying again in Jan as Oct birthday would slot in nicely between two ds's in Sept and Nov, but what will be will be, just aware that both times we fell pregnant first month of trying so might as well aim for spreading cost of birthdays!). So in a nutshell, your cycles might be fine from the off and you might fall pregnant quicker, but you may well need to drop feeds or stop breast feeding if you want to conceive.

Really hope maybes emby is getting comfy in there and looking forward to all the home baked goods that will be nourishing him/her for the next 9 months!

Munxx · 08/07/2013 20:13

My AF is missing too so perhaps we could do a double whammy for maybe make it a really really strong line?

NoMaybeAboutIt · 08/07/2013 20:02

Thank you so much lovely Munx. You are all being so kind Thanks

Musical I'm brooking that you are going to be the person who confirms Maybe's pregnancy by AF returning. I've done Boo and Solars so far :o

Munxx · 08/07/2013 19:53

Sorry I haven't really been able to post properly all day.
Maybe I also am just so blimmin chuffed for you. You Re such a lovely lovely lady, always so pleased for others when it's been a hard road for you. I am brooking so hard for you, I am sending every positive thought I can and keeping everything firmly crossed.

geek I'm sorry your appointment didn't go exactly as you wanted but I hope that the way forward is smooth and you can make a plan for the next cycle. Brooking hard for you too, you are another brooker very much on my mind.

cups I hope that this cycle continues to go well, I am afraid I am not as knowledgable as others with regards to IVF but rest assured I am thinking of you and brooking hard!

kitty brooking for you -are you still waiting for your Appointment?

gobbolino welcome back! I have been a brooker for about 18 months, can I have a PM too? I may have been a slightly different variety of munx/munkii back then.

Welcome again to all the newbies, and much brooking!
demented penguin I recognise you from the sept threads, my ds is 10 mo too. I lurk but don't post on them :)

Big waves to all, lovely to see everybody popping in and out today.

I am on phone so apologise for any omissions

NoMaybeAboutIt · 08/07/2013 19:23

Oh Musical, thank you so so much. Your words and brooking mean everything to me x

Have you aye spoken to you GP about AF? See if there's another way to encourage her back?

musicalmrs · 08/07/2013 19:19

I am Maybe.Slowly cutting down.. maybe I'll have to give up altogether :-(

I don't think I got it across in my last post, but I can't express how happy I am that you're PUPO, and that everything's going fabulously. You've been on such a roller coaster ride, and you've been so wonderful and supportive to so many of us brookers while struggling yourself. I think you probably have the largest and most powerful amounts of brooking ever behind you Smile

NoMaybeAboutIt · 08/07/2013 19:14

Brooking for AF to pay you a little visit Musical. Are you still BF?

musicalmrs · 08/07/2013 19:07

Wonderful news Maybe! so glad you're now a PUPO.! Brooking that the time until OTD flies past.

Think I must know you too Gobbo. Congratulations on your DS and on your pregnancy! All down to the power of brooking I'm sure, even if only subconscious Grin

Can I have some brooking for AF please lovely brookers? I really would like to consider TTCing again at some point in the future, and AF soonish would be nice to give her a chance to regulate before we do (took while last time). She's been refusing to grace me with her presence :-(

NoMaybeAboutIt · 08/07/2013 18:41

Thanks Little x

Cartoon it feels very strange!

cartoontrickster · 08/07/2013 18:36

wooo gobbo we don't know eachother, don't think... but very close in dates I'm 13weeks on sat.
maybe thats wonderful! how does it feel to be pupo?
sorry I've missed so much ladies Blush

TheLittleFriend · 08/07/2013 18:28

Really excited for you Maybe, roll on the 20th x

NoMaybeAboutIt · 08/07/2013 17:48

Oh Dino a hug would be much appreciated!! A few people here know. I'll hug Otis instead Grin. Ooh, France! Red wine and cheese aplenty!!

NoMaybeAboutIt · 08/07/2013 17:47

Thank you so much everyone Grin xxx

It's a crazy long wait isn't it?! Especially seems as we have got to blasto. A lot of clinics are 14 days post EC. Still, I suppose by that point it will be a definite!

Yes Solars, MrM was with me. Seeing it go in was so cool. And so clear but then my bladder was fit to burst

I'm currently watching MrM water the allotment!

DinoSnores · 08/07/2013 17:43

Oh this is so very exciting, maybe. I wish I could give you a big proper hug right now. Have you told friends or family in RL who can do it for me? I am in France on OTD so will definitely need to do some roaming that day for your BFP!!!

GenericDietCola · 08/07/2013 16:39

Squeee maybe! You're pupo! Grin

Solars · 08/07/2013 16:00

Oh Maybe that is excellent news and hatching too, but otd is not until the 20th?? that's a very long wait!! How are you feeling? Was MrM with you? I have a very good feeling about this!

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 08/07/2013 15:52

My clinic advises 16-18 days post transfer for testing! Are these people crazy Shock Most people get positive by 11dpt

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 08/07/2013 15:48

Well done Maybe Grin

Fingers crossed for lots of good embies to freeze. Glad to hear it all went well. Brooking for the next two weeks to fly by xxxx

NoMaybeAboutIt · 08/07/2013 15:47

Thanks everyone! She didn't want to say, as she wanted to see how many we're left at the end of today. She was surprised how many had made it to blasto though!

As for testing, they make you wait ages!! OTD I'd 20th! No early testing here though. They gave a special pipette test to do!! You know me, I love a gadget Grin

Fox its going the very best it can do Smile

RubberBullets · 08/07/2013 15:47

That's amazing news maybe. Looking forward to your BFP now :o

Biscuitsandtea · 08/07/2013 15:42

Whoop whoop Maybe GrinGrin

You're PUPO!!! GrinGrin

Do you know how many you had left as of today?

So what happens now? Resting and making emby nice and comfy until testing day? What do they say about testing? When should you?
