Tame - Conrgratulations! So pleased for you after everything you've been through!

Can someone tell me what OTD means?

I feel like I belong on this thread now seeing as we're officially going for the IVF and it'll be July/August time.

Swing between feeling hopeful that it will work and thinking its not happened so far so why would it happen now? I know IVF should make you feel like you're one step closer but I feel like its been so long that's it's never going to happen. When I picture the future I dont see us with children anymore. is this normal?

twinks it is normal to worry about it, but you stand a better chance as they will making the embryo so all it has to do is make itself at home, you don't have to worry about egg and sperm meeting, don't get me wrong its still a stressful business

I'm here mejust! Just returned from the clinic where I had the prostap injection and endometrial scratch, both of which were relatively painless. No more appts until the 10th June, so now just waiting to see how menkull I can become on serious hormone treatment.
Congratulations tame - that is so fantastic Flowers
Hi nokkie - good luck for tomorrow!!
I feel so relieved to have started active treatment, though that may wear off as soon as it actually starts to work.

Hiya, Motor and well done for getting through the jockstrap 'n scratch. I forgot to ask you: what is your donor like? What made you choose her? I specifically asked for an ugly bird so I can avoid all those pesky beauty pageants Grin

Good luck tomorrow, Nokks, I know how fretful you are but I have a good feeling about this for you. Chin up, love, and take courage xx

are you able to get a blood test so you can then compare it to your OTD, I would take another one now, it will take about a day, this is what happeded to me I can send you some of mine if you are running short

Tortie, please don't fret unduly, I read about this spotting all the time that it's completely normal for a massive percentage of women. Buzzy's advice worked for her so try all you can to get to EPAU or get more progesterone off Buzzy for peace of mind x

The EPU here is crap- you have to be referred and takes 2-3 weeks for an appointment.

Im going to put an extra fanny candle in tonight and DH is arranging for me to have a day in bed tomorrow i.e. Doing everything so i dont have to! =) this is so pants. Was just starting to feel better and then this. =( my poor husband, if he reads one more 'story of hope' about brown bleeding off his phone to me, ill arse rape him with this 10kg bag of cat food.

Djuicy my donor is more than 10 years younger than I am, with similar colouring, a good education, and no significant medical history, in a same sex relationship (I was asked at the beginning if I would object to eggs from lesbians, and was surprised to find that a lot of people do!) I accepted because I could see no reason not to, and I just want to get on with it. I just hope she responds well to treatment for both of ours sakes.
mejust My concentration is very poor today, but I think that is because I'm doing the 5:2 diet and am on a fast day (waits for tirade from dJuicy), which I'll probably have to give up soon!
buzzy and tame I asked the nurse at the clinic about progesterone monitoring and she said that I won't need it as they will give me high doses anyway Hmm. I will pursue it further.

Tame I'm so glad you have accepted this is it. You are preggo girl!

I know my pregnancy didn't end well, but it all developed normally until about 5 and half weeks in, and I had some spotting the day after my official test (so 15 days past EC) and all was well for a good while after that. So many women bleed around that point, it really is normal.

Nice name, juice. Wink

That's completely normal twink.

Woo hoo motor - you are on the way!

I shall only be here outside office hours. The thread titles on here show up in the URL and this one is a bit sweary.... I always dread doing anything that would lead the IT nazis to look too closely at my interwebby usage at work. I'm sweary as you all know, but I'm not sure our uptight American IT folks approve, so I'll save it for home. Fuckers.

buzzybee123 · 28/05/2013 21:07

tame are you having a blood test on OTD, i'm not sure how much lying in bed will change things but a good idea to DH to do things

motor the confusing thing is what is classed as high dose?? I thought 800 mgs was high but my progesterone level is average 24 compared to what is online (47), some women who have been to the likes of ARGC want you to have a progesterone level of 100 + which means being on double the dose I am now Confused

Oh, no, euro! I'm sorry my fred title has made you vulnerable to twatty Yanks Sad

Motor, your sapphic donor sounds great and I can think of many reasons why a lesbian baby would be good news: no need to buy pink fluffy headbands and all the rellies could just buy dungarees from Baby Gap Wink
