Ladies I caved....cannot believe I am typing this. I think I may have the faintest of faint BFPs

lucieloos · 06/10/2015 18:51

Wow I can see it too!! Congrats trixie that's amazing! You must be so excited! How many dpo are you?

TheTravellingLemon · 06/10/2015 18:54

TRIXIE! I can see it! I can see it! Hooray! Everything crossed for you FlowersFlowers

Pikz · 06/10/2015 18:56

I can see it to. Have everything crossed xxxx

Trixielilac11 · 06/10/2015 18:58

Thanks Sammy! I'm in shock! Terrified it's not real. DH isn't convinced but a line is a line right and I'd only done a one hour hold.

Trixielilac11 · 06/10/2015 19:01

Oops cross post. Thanks Lucie, Lemon and Pikz! I'm 8dp5dt so 13 dpo. Took my temp this morning and it was low (though I'd been tossing and turning) and have no symptoms so really wasn't expecting it. FX my levels tomorrow are ok.

lucieloos · 06/10/2015 21:23

Ahh so pleased for you trixie. Hope your levels are good tomorrow.

We need to start a new thread soon ladies!

TheTravellingLemon · 07/10/2015 07:52

I'll be thinking of you today Trixie. Sending you lots of good luck vibes and keeping everything crossed.

Trixielilac11 · 07/10/2015 08:51

Thank you Smile

Tested again this morning and line is fainter, really hard to get a concentrated sample though as I drank a lot last night and was up a lot I'm the night to go to the loo. Just on my way to the clinic now.

Hope your scan is ok today Sammy.

Will try and start a new thread when I get back.

loopylou1984 · 07/10/2015 11:01

Trixie - hope the clinic appointment goes well.

My scan showed that lining still not thick enough, although it doesn't matter now anyway as we have abandoned the cycle again.

I'm was really sick last night and the consultant thinks it's down to the estrogen tablets given that I felt the same last cycle. So as I would have had to increase the dose to get the lining up and then keep taking them for the first 12 weeks of pregnancy they decided I couldn't be this ill for that long.

I'm totally gutted, and can't stop crying. There is now no way I can be pregnant before I turn 30 which feels like a mikestone considering I was 27 when we started ttc. I feel so bad for dh too, he is so desperate to be a dad... As much as I am to be a mum.

We're going to be doing a natural cycle now, so got to wait for af then here we go again.

Sorry to bring the mood down, I had to get it out.

Will be looking out for your update Trixie. Xx

lucieloos · 07/10/2015 11:17

Oh Sammy I'm so sorry you have had some hard disappointments so far. It must be difficult being all geared up for it. It won't be long though honey.l and you can get going again. Will you have to monitor with opks etc next time? I really hope you get better luck next time.

Hope everything has gone ok this morning trixie. Looking out for your update too.

lucieloos · 07/10/2015 11:22

I've started a new thread. It's called the same thing but thread 2 I'm not sure how to post a link to it will try and figure it out now.

lucieloos · 07/10/2015 11:25

Here it is..

New Thread

loopylou1984 · 07/10/2015 12:10

Hi Lucie, yeah it'll be opks. I'll be ok, was just totally unprepared for another cancelled cycle.

Thank you for the new thread. Xx

Trixielilac11 · 07/10/2015 12:12

Oh no Sammy, I'm gutted for you. I was saying to DH that if we have to have another FET we would do a natural one after all the progesterone issues. I know you have waited so long already but one more month will fly by.

Are you all ready for tomorrow Lucie? Thank you for the new thread!

lucieloos · 07/10/2015 12:38

I'm just going to start packing soon trixie. I'm only going for one night so just a flying visit this time. I'm going on my own though so a little nervous even though I know where everything is. It doesn't make it any easier that we are only looking at 4 follicles either. If we had lots there then it would take the pressure off a bit but I just have to pray for good quality like last time.

When are your results due in?

Trixielilac11 · 07/10/2015 13:28

Just had the call, it's a BFN. I can't belive it, I really thought this was it. My level was 3.8 so looks like a chemical pregnancy. Trying to focus on the positive, at least I was pregnant just feel exhausted by it all and no idea where we go next....

lucieloos · 07/10/2015 13:34

Oh no trixie I'm so sorry! I really thought this was it for you. I know how devastating it is but take a little time and then give it another go. It's all a numbers game and finding that perfect egg. You have another 7 left? Plenty there, I would consider trying two next time. My clinic said the success rate for two is slightly higher than transferring them separately. So sorry lovely. None of us are having much luck on here lately Thanks

TheTravellingLemon · 07/10/2015 14:39

I am so sorry to read that Trixie. It all seems so unfair and so cruel. Look after yourself Flowers.

Sammy that's so hard, I'm sorry. Let yourself have a good cry.

There are no words really, it is just so hard. I hope you both feel better soon Flowers.

30 is still so young. I was 30 when DH and I MET!

Sending hugs to you both. Flowers

loopylou1984 · 07/10/2015 15:06

Oh Trixie, I really thought I was going to read good news. What is going on here? Hopefully our new thread will be luckier for all of us. Xx

Pikz · 07/10/2015 17:26

Trixie I am so so sorry. I had so much crossed for a good result

Lucie you will be brilliant on your own and hope all goes well

Sammy I am so sorry :( a month isn't long but I know it feels like forever and Lemon is right. 30 is young. I was 30 when I fell pregnant with DS and we had been trying for a similar length to you. I have so much faith it will work for you

Trixielilac11 · 07/10/2015 18:16

Thanks Lemon and Pikz, it means a lot that so many people were rooting for me.

lucieloos · 07/10/2015 18:40
