Hi all
Karbea I'm going to send you massive hugs and huge commiserations, and tell you I know how you feel, because the last person I did that too right after I'd failed turned out to be positive so hoping the same happens again for you. Don't forget the level needs to be at least 25 before you get a poas.
Jumping, huge amounts of good luck, and nerves of steel, for tomorrow. Really hope it goes your way and the twinges are a good sign. I think anything other than full on AF can only be a good sign.
Duggs 4 is still plenty and gives you choice etc, must have been a bit of a shock to drop from so many, but if you would normally only produce 1 spot on ready egg, then i think logically even 4 that were perfectly ready is still a lot. Fingers crossed the testing comes back ok.
Zeebee, Raspberry, Josie, thinking of you all. Wow such a lot of you in the dreaded 2WW, and not many mentalling posts too far, I am very impressed.
Am sure i've missed people out so sorry if I have, have had full on day at work and my mind is all over the place, so waves and hugs everyone else.
AFM am not doing too badly, mostly on account of having 'a plan' for the next little while, which is that I've got an appointment with 'Mr S' - Zeebee this is Mr Shehata at the Miscarriage Clinic who can organise and advise on the controversial so called 'immune tests' to see if your bodies blood clotting or immune system response is somehow overreacting to the presence of an embryo. If the tests come back positive then i think he usually advises a few months of drugs with usual SWI, then if that doesn't work IVF with drugs alongside. We're very lucky to have 2 rounds of IVF left on the NHS (1 fresh, 1 frozen) and would probably pay for maybe 1 or 2 more if we had reason to believe they might work, so all this treatment is going to take up at least the rest of the year I think, so am just going to plod through that and not even think about what might be after that until it is all over. Oh and i ordered a load of ridiculously expensive chinese herbs, just to throw the book at this thing so to speak! AFM on the subject of adoption, my plan is to go through all the treatment first, get to the end and if it still didn't work then take some time out to grieve and get used to not having a biological child first. Then think about how i would feel about adopting. I think it could be great, but i would need to be in the right place to be ready for it if that makes sense.
Anyway. Happy mondays! x
