The Elderberry Pavlovas head into 2014 which will be full of ivf, berry babies and BFPs!!! (thread 17)

[Bunnygirlie]

The smallprint –
Berries have a strict entrance criteria (TTC #1, over 30, TTC for 6+months (preferably 12+) NO instadiffers, must have a special pot and def no mention of baby dust or baby dancing UGH !!! Ooooh aren’t we strict!

The 17th thread, wow! This had better be it ladies, time to get off the Sofa of Pity onto the Pouffe of Positivity and beyond!

100% failed now. Full on proper bleed.

lady congrats on the bmi

pip sorry for the unhelpful nurse and your mum sounds great

I'm so sorry Pip. Where does thus leave you in terms of cycles?

Bunny I told my consultant about you and how you got 2 put back on your first cycle but she says the guidelines in the east midlands are really strict, it's definitely only 1 on the NHS cycle here. (Although they do go up to 40 HB, 35 is ridiculous).
Pip so sorry, I hope you've got and .

Oh no pip I'm so sorry.

pip I'm so, so, sorry, words cannot express how much this stinks . Sending big hugs and lots of or or your way.

happy nice to have a cycle buddy!

Woke up at 4 this morning and grabbed the thermometer before realising the time. Went back to sleep annoyed that this could throw my temperature out. Woke up again at 5. Even more annoyed. Again at 6 home. At least I'm not in school tomorrow for the lunchtime presents and cards. . By the time my alarm went off for usual temp time at 6.30 I was mad! Temp was high but obviously totally unreliable. Fx I don't go through the same thing tonight!!!

Er, not sure where the random word home popped in from!

And the rest of it. My phone clearly deleted selected parts of that post and then threw a couple of random words around. Apologies.

The bit that mainly deleted theb splurged itself should have read something like:

I tried to be strong and go to pg colleague's leaving drinks after school. Managed about 5 minutes. Colleague on maternity was there with baby, hadn't occured to me she would be there. Between seeing them, the massive bump holding a pink 'baby on board' balloon, and then someone trying to get me to join the 'guess the weight of the baby' sweepstake, I couldn't take it. Ran into the toilets for a bit to calm myself down, came out to try again and just dissolved into tears and ran home. At least I'm not in tomorrow to sit through the present and card giving at school.

I shall now retreat and stop making a mess of the thread .

Barking Thats one of the reasons I stopped temping. It rules your day and means that ttcing is the first thing you think of when you wake up. Lunchtime presents and cards?

RP One more NHS cycle left. Then if there are any frosties then I'll get three transfers too, but I've not got any in the freezer as yet.

Barking my questioning of cards and presents came from your first post.

pip I hope you're being well looked after by DH. Can't say anything to make it better so I won't try, but just wanted to say how sorry I am.

barking well done for not popping that fecking balloon! I would've, and then also would've run away. Oh how I envy the blissful ignorance of those who either have kids and have had no problems or those who aren't even thinking about them yet. Kudos for not doing a Carrie on the lot of them!

pip I think I'm just a little obsessed this cycle as it appears to be the first 'working' cycle since the mc, and my temps so far have been far more stable than ever before, so I'm way too preoccupied with getting a perfect graph and a beautiful temp rise! Ironically, I'm so bothered about it that's why I'm waking up and messing it up!

If I'd tracked a few cycles and knew I was ovulating I don't think I'd bother, but it's the only way I know whether my body is doing anything and whether the clomid is having any effect.

So very sorry pip

Eurgh Barking that sounds particularly tacky.

Pip, that sounds hard. But you do have more chances. I guess that is not helping you right now though :(

Anyone seen the clearblue digital advert? Just seen it now for the first time. Its fcking awful cringy sht

Funky - Clearblue advert makes me want to poke something spiky up her nose. Silly cow! Maybe they should have done it with the friend bursting into snotty tears and hot-footing it out of the room. I would find that a lot more relatable.

We had a baby visiting school today. Bleurgh. I shut my classroom door and hid at the back so no one could see me if they peeked in. Barking, your day sounds a lot worse.

Pip, I've said it in the other place but I really am so sorry that the bleeding has started early. I really hope they can give you some explanations and use this to improve your treatment for a 3rd time lucky.

I agree 1 embi rule is silly. Possibly a general rule but exception if say you only have 2 and they are embies not blasts.
Which is where we were or depending on age etc
The one at a time site suggests it may not be suitable for all.
We have been given the info but i think as private they may not be able to compel so much as advise.

Ttc#2 after 20m old icsi baby
Pcos now hypothyroid, on met and thyroxine

Pip - so very sorry that this hasn't worked for you again. Hope that you and your DH are looking after each other and that the FC we be able to learn everything they need to make cycle 3 work for you guys.

Barking - tough day at school. Onwards and upwards as they say and at least your current cycle seems to be on track. Remind me, are you on 50mg clomid?

RP - deffo go to the docs. This must be so frustrating for you. Hopefully they can do something to assist.

Boodle - great news about the impending swift polyp removal. Try not to worry about the GA, you'll be fine. Make sure you're off work the following day too. Did you manage to sort out travel arrangements? You're unlikely to be leaving the hospital much before 2pm and that is only if you're first on the list, if that helps.

Hello to everyone else (waving)!

Oh pip I'm just reading this now. I'm so gutted for you, I really am . Hopefully it's true what they say about third time being lucky. Xxxx

Yep, 50mg clomid gilster. Temp shot up this morning but I did wake up at 5am so not sure how reliable it is, although I did get my +opk 2 days ago. It would be the earliest I've ever ov'd. Not sure what to expect now. Usual 8 day LP or by some miracle something nearer 'normal' which will obviously have me convinced I'm pg

Barking I have everything crossed for you as your chart is v hopeful

Pip I'm so sorry x

I'm so sorry pip. Thinking of you and your oh xxx

Pip really sorry this has happened, and that you got a hateful nurse on the line when you called the FC (can't remember if I read that here or on the EB thread). Please take care of yourself today x

AF has arrived! Spoke to FC and we're booked in for bloods and day 3 dildocam on Sunday morning. If all OK then stabbing will start soon after. Exciting and scary at the same time.

Exciting gill. Hopefully you will now only be weeks away from your bfp
