So who's next in line for that BFP???

x.posted with your second message beedle I completely get where you're coming from. Do you temp? I've been looking at FF charts of successful and unsuccessful IVF cycles and there is a temp drop on about 90% of unsuccessful charts a couple of days before bleeding. Successful charts all seem to remain high.

BeedlesPineNeedles · 14/06/2013 11:55

No I haven't been temping but I could over the next few days, I didn't think it would show anything useful due to the extra progesterone so i didn't bother.

If I got a BFN I'd probably spend the whole day crying Sad

I can't believe that you can sack someone having treatment for organ failure Shock so perhaps the working from home is the best compromise.

NoMaybeAboutIt · 14/06/2013 12:14

Oh Beedle lovely. I think you know better than MrB. I suppose it's a toss up between preparing yourself and keeping the faith. I say see how you feel that morning. But it doesn't matter anyway as it will be a BFP.

Geek sacking for organ failure Shock that's got unfair dismissal all over it. I def agree with working from home. That way everyone's happy. How are you feeling other than Percy and his posse?

ControlGeek · 14/06/2013 12:24

beedle yes, it was strange, the charts all showed they had continued with their progresterone, too. (((huge hugs))) It will not be a bfn for you though lovely. As maybe says, perhaps see how you feel on the morning. You can always pot up your FMU for later consideration if you don't want to make the decision first thing.

geek yes, it's very shaky, legally, but they insist they only have to deviate from their absence policy in cases of cancer or maternity-related absences. They are so not a caring organisation.

Ok, so wfh for next week has been authorised, that takes the pressure off a bit. Somehow managed to get away with conveying my difficulty without once mentioning piles, haemorrhoids, or having an arse like a baboon once Grin

ControlGeek · 14/06/2013 12:25

wtf? I'm geek - the second para in previous post was meant for maybe

NoMaybeAboutIt · 14/06/2013 12:34

Geek you make me Grin. I've list the plot this week too and I can't blame Percy

So pleased WFH had been okayd. That's the pressure off your arse for a bit

BeedlesPineNeedles · 14/06/2013 12:43

geek you do make me smile :o

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 14/06/2013 12:47

I am so sorry, the pain of Percy is awful and familiar to me, but Geek and Maybe you have both just made me spit my tea a little GrinGrin

Beedle I second the advice to pot up your pee and pee how brave you feel later the day.

Solars · 14/06/2013 14:21

Beedle it is so hard, I just couldn't face seeing a negative myself, hence why I waited. I third the put the pee in the a pot and decide later if you can't face it first thing, but 13dpec should be a good time to test. It will be a BFP anyway. When is the official day anyway? 2 or 3 days later?

Geek you have a sure fire case of baby brain there!! Glad you sorted out working from home!

Sounds like you have a case of baby brain too Maybe not long 'til Tuesday, eek!

Hcg is at 627 today, Nks are raised so I have had another dose of intralipids! Apart from tiredness no other real symptoms to report unless you count raging hunger Hmm

OP posts:
NoMaybeAboutIt · 14/06/2013 15:58

Solars that's fantastic news! Will you need another dose, or will that be it? When do you have your scan?

Hope we didn't spoil your tea too much Boo Grin

I have just received a lucky brooking piss stick. Thanks Little!

Biscuitsandtea · 14/06/2013 16:03

Glad to hear its all going well Solars Smile Hope the intrepids (or whatever they're called! Pretty sure that won't come up on my autocorrect) were ok.

Geek you have my sympathy my love. Glad they OK'd WFH. I'm still Shock about the other HR 'issues' at your place though!

What a decision to have to make Beedle - I don't know what I'd do. Every option has horrible (irrelevant cos it will be a BFP) down sides Sad. However, you know that whatever you decide, we are here holding your hand every step of the way Thanks

When is your OTD / BBT date beedle?

Love to everyone else xx

Solars · 14/06/2013 16:07

Oh yes forgot to answer you Keep no we have no frosties, 1 made it to blastocyst but they said it didn't have the right components to continue as an embryo, the other 2 stopped growing at day 4 I think. In terms of scan they haven't given me a date I think they wait 'til hcg levels get to 20,000 before they scan.

Maybe they test nk's again in 3/4 weeks time, so maybe if they're still raised which could continue throughout the pregnancy. My next hcg blood test is Sunday, so at least I get a break tmrw. It does mess up our plans to go up and see my family though! How has the downregging been treating you?

OP posts:
NoMaybeAboutIt · 14/06/2013 16:10

Lots of tests for poor Solars

Down regging is tiring me out and making me a bit loopy. I sometimes still get the intense nervousness, but not as bad as a few weeks ago!

Solars · 15/06/2013 09:28

You'll always have some nervousness Maybe I still do one step at a time and you will get there.

How are you doing today Beede?

Geek is Percy out the picture yet? How are you holding out?

Biscuits you always say the loveliest things, that's why we've missed you!

Cups sounds like you're good to go if you've not heard from the clinic, do you have all your meds?

OP posts:
NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/06/2013 09:32

How is everyone today?

Solars the nervousness is a side effect of the buserilin. It's crazy, I can't sit still and get palpitations.

I second how much we've missed Biscuits Smile

Solars · 15/06/2013 09:41

Oh wow Maybe that must be quite scary, at least it's not long 'til the stimming now.

OP posts:
NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/06/2013 10:12

It was at first, I thought I was losing it Grin. I wonder if I will still get the sideeffectswhen stimming, as I still have to take the buserilin everyday. Time seems to be flying at the moment!

How are you feeling Solars? Has it sunk in yet?!

Solars · 15/06/2013 11:47

Maybe The buserelin is only half the dose right? Hopefully those side effects will subside during stimming. I am ok, don't think it's still sunk in yet to be honest. Weird I thought I'd be happy about not going in for another blood test today and yet I'm sat here worrying about my hcg levels and wondering if they're still going up Hmm

Has anyone seen the new superman movie yet? Wondering if its worth checking it out.

OP posts:
NoMaybeAboutIt · 15/06/2013 13:15

Oh Solars that's totally understandable. I haven't seen it, but it looks good! You should go and have a distracting day Smile.

Yes, down to a half dose next week hopefully. I'm hoping I don't react to much to the stims. I have horrendous cramps down my right ovary area this afternoon.

Interesting dream Sparkes sounds like a BFP for sure for Geek! How are you? Any closer to sneezing??

BeedlesPineNeedles · 16/06/2013 07:21

So I did a test this morning but it was a BFN. I know it could possibly change over the next few days, OTD isn't until Thursday but I think the result at 13 dpo is probably correct. Sad

I think I need a break from here as we probably won't get to try again until October.
I'm also going to remove myself from the fb group as recent posts are not what i want to see on my news feed. (i don't mean the cute baby photos, I loved the cute-off)

I'll pass all my brooking onto geek I really really hope it works for you.

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 16/06/2013 07:49

I'm so so sorry to hear that Beedle I'm brooking that it turns into a positive anyway. I totally understand why you might need a little break for a while, especially until your next IVF cycle. Lots of love to you and MrB

And I get what you are saying about the FB group. I hope we can still be friends on there anyway. I need your help on candy crush!
