Good luck for tomorrow turq

And good luck to you too wish if you decide to test

WannabeMaryPoppins · 13/03/2014 20:57

Hey beetle how are you?

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 13/03/2014 21:56

Nobeer that sounds strange, any chance it's not your AF? Is AF due?

Turq if you can't get an opener you could use a bit of gauze/paper towel to snap the vials. Just fold it over a few times and snap it off confidently. Do the vials have a scored line or a dot on showing you the weakest part to snap? Preparing the drugs is the easiest part for me as I'm a nurse, working up the courage to inject myself is a whole other problem....Grin

Wish how are you doing? Just one more sleep. I'm keeping everything crossed for you x

Beetle how are you doing? Where are you at in your cycle? I've lost track. Hope you are doing ok.

Res sorry to hear dd is still unwell, when is your DH back?

Ooh Beetle did you get a positive result then? Have you already moved back to the uk? I'll keep everything crossed for a good result x

nobeer · 13/03/2014 22:26

cups I reckon it is AF. Am due today but the spotting has been a bit longer and more drawn out than normal. Am starting to feel a bit crampy too. Maybe it's the mental stress of the anticipation of next FET! I imagine doctor will have a look with dildo cam tomorrow...

wishwash · 13/03/2014 23:16

Thanks Turq beetle cups and Maryp!

I know it sounds silly but I know deep down that it's going to be negative. I just need to find out for sure and stay strong for next time... Only 28 and 3 failed ivfs/fet's behind me Sad

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 13/03/2014 23:21

Wish I really hope you are wrong, at least you will know either way tomorrow. We are all rooting for you and MrWish x

Nobeer bloody AF messing you around! At least you have a didocam to look forward too......

I've had 3 pregnancy announcements today so am feeling a bit delicate but on a positive note all of them handled it really sensitively and didn't say anything stupid like it will be your turn next.

Oh Wish I am so sorry, it's so unfair. I'm thinking of you both (((hugs)))

Beetle congratulations, I really hope the next beta test is a good number. I know this is only the start of the mentalling but we are all here cheering you on Smile

Ps thanks for bringing back the sun

Morning brooker Smile

I've got an old friend coming to visit for the day who I've not seen in 4 years. I've let the friendship slide as she was living far away and having lots of children so it was just another person I could avoid telling our sorry story to. I'm sort of dreading today even though she's a lovely person and was once my best friend. I'm not looking forward to the inevitable questions about kids Hmm

WannabeMaryPoppins · 14/03/2014 07:46

Oh wish I was just thinking of you and how you were getting on. I am so so sorry. I really don't know what else to say «strokes wishes hair gently»

WannabeMaryPoppins · 14/03/2014 07:50

Congratulations beetle & good luck for the test. Keeping everything crossed
Morning everyoneSmile

BrookerC · 14/03/2014 08:16

wish I'm gutted for you. PM me if you need to offload. x

wishwash · 14/03/2014 08:23

Thanks ladies. I am really gutted but I did 'know' deep down. Of course I was hoping for a surprise!

It's just the fact that I'm only 28 and have 1 failed IVF and 2 failed FETs behind me and the doctors seem completely clueless as to why! It makes no sense and if someone tells me 'it's a lottery' one more time I'm going to slap them with a flip flop (a hard one)

wishwash · 14/03/2014 08:23

Congrats beetle Smile

moggle · 14/03/2014 09:38

wish I'm so sorry. It's shit.
I suggest hitting the annoying people with a clog instead of a flip flop, it'll probably be more satisfying.

beetle congrats and good luck for the blood test today.

Turquoisetamborine · 14/03/2014 09:48

I'm in the pharmacy of doom again waiting for more stimming drugs. They have only charged me £7.85 for three days worth. Bargain!!

I have 5 follicles now. An improvement from one on Monday, just shows how quickly things can change. EC should be Wednesday now.

BrookerC · 14/03/2014 10:22

I know how you feel wish. How many more 'Lottery' goes can I put myself through. 2 ivf & 1 FET later & my clinic are none the wiser. I am an old bird though :-(

WannabeMaryPoppins · 14/03/2014 10:41

Are you at work wish? Can you do something nice today? I know it isn't going to make you feel better but I really hope you can find some time for yourself today. Hugs

WannabeMaryPoppins · 14/03/2014 10:41

That sounds much better Turq you must be so relieved

wishwash · 14/03/2014 11:37

I'm not sure whether my age is making a difference though brooker. I'm broken somewhere but they won't find where because I am young. It does get harder doesn't it. I'm stronger when dealing with the disappointment but in terms of going through it all again, I'm exhausted!!!

marypops it turns out that I'm off to see Jack Whitehall in Birmingham tonight so at least that'll cheer me up. Laughter is the best medicine hey Smile
