beedle!!! So good to see you popping back here. Best of brooking luck for the FET. I'm glad this cycle is easier on you with lack of sniffer dogs etc.

No phone call this morning so looks like the emby survived the night. IIRC it was night 2 when all the embies dropped off last time, leaving just one for transfer on day 3. What I don't like about doing this day 2 transfer is there is no way of knowing if this emby drops off on night 2 or not. I think I'd rather know that it's not a goer early on rather than have a fortnight of hope, but that's not an option. MrG and I are both in a pretty bad place at the moment. Because everything was brought forward so much, he's now going to be on a stag weekend for what should be OTD. Don't really want to bring it forward a day as that will give him a really shit weekend. Need to work out if I've got enough bum bullets to last me til the following monday.

SantaMaybe · 27/01/2014 11:58

Geek I'm so pleased there has been no call. What time so you have to go back in? Are you recovering ok following the EC?

Such rubbish timing with the stag do. Would the clinic maybe give you another couple of days worth if you don't have enough?

ControlGeek · 27/01/2014 12:29

It's at 3:15 maybe Yes, I was very relieved not to get a call this morning! I'm hoping they can push OTD back, need to see how many extra bum bullets I would need.

SantaMaybe · 27/01/2014 12:32

Not long now lovely. Will be thinking of you x

musicalmrs · 27/01/2014 13:06

Thinking of you too Geek. So very pleased you didn't get a call this morning. Rubbish timing on the stag do front, but will cross fingers for the extra bum bullets (what are they for?).

How is the bum bullet situation?

DinoSnores · 27/01/2014 17:47

Great news, Geek. How was it? maybe, make sure that's just decaff tea for the PUPO!

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 27/01/2014 17:54

Geek congrats on being PUPO Grin I hope that geeklette is settling in x

Beedle so good to hear from you. Sorry to hear things have been rough. I hope things are on the up. So excited for your FET Smile

Dino congrats on your BFP x

Well it's not good news from me I'm afraid. My IVF has been cancelled. I went in today to start but my lining is very thick at 8.6mm despite this being CD3. I now have to have an hysteroscopy, biopsy and scratch to rule out anything sinister as the doctor put it. He thinks I'm unlikely to be able to do short protocol as my lining has been consistently thick at all my baseline scans. He is also concerned I may not be a candidate for long protocol either as my lining needs to be under 6mm to start and I only just achieved that on down regulating last time plus my eggs responded badly to long protocol. So I may not be able to do IVF again myself. I am in shock and feel sick. I have been put on a waiting list for the procedure. I feel this is the final straw in the past 4 years of what has been the worst time of my life. I think its time for me to stop ttc now as emotionally I can't take anymore of this pain. I will have to go ahead with the hysteroscopy as the doctor said it's needed to rule out any growths/abnormal cells regardless of the IVF.

So I won't be on the thread anymore. It's been lovely talking to you all over the years and I wish you all the best. Geek, Beedle, Scarlett etc please keep me updated. I'll be keeping everything crossed for you guys xxxx

I am so so sorry Cups xxx

Cups I'm so sorry.

DinoSnores · 27/01/2014 18:50

cups, have sent you a PM in case you don't return here, but just sending lots of hugs. I am so sorry to read this.

Fox82 · 27/01/2014 19:07

Oh cups I'm so sorry

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 27/01/2014 19:30

Congratulations geek on being pupo. Really hope it's getting comfy in there!

So sorry cups re your news. I don't really know much about the IVF process but is there nothing they can do to reduce the thickness of your lining? Hope they find nothing sinister and that they can find something to enable you to resume your ttc.

BeedlesPineNeedles · 27/01/2014 19:50

cups I'm so sorry to hear your news and that this is the end of your ttc journey. I wish there was something I could say to make you feel better but I'm sure there isn't. I hope the hysteroscopy goes ok and doesn't show anything nasty. You will be in our thoughts (hugs)

geek congrats on being pupo, though I can't believe you want to put otd back by a few days Shock (though I do understand why)

For those who asked, the FET will be entirely drugfree and done 3 days after the smiley face (2 day embryo), they won't even give me progesterone support even though I did ask! They also expect me to wait 15 days after transfer to test, ha ha. I'll be testing before when AF is due.

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 27/01/2014 19:56

Cups I am so sorry you have had this news :( good luck with the procedure. Massive {{{{{hugs}}}}} to you and Mr C xx xx

keepitgoing · 27/01/2014 20:14

oh god cups how awful. I'm so sorry and brooking there is nothing sinister found. lots of love x
