I don't have to remind you of the Law of Boob do I Beedles?

Hope you all had a nice weekend. The schlep up to Yorkshire was fine and it's nice to have the car back. Yesterday I had a lovely day pottering about the house and shopping in town while Mr Imps went out on his bike. And now it's fucking Monday again.

keepitgoing · 25/01/2016 12:39

mol how are you doing? Any more poas action?

imps Mondays suck balls don't they!

Our weekend was nice except for the craziness only just being kept at bay... beedle are you still going for Wednesday?

BeedlesPineNeedles · 26/01/2016 06:34

Glad you've got the car back imps had all the snow melted? Mine is melting away Sad causing the odd avalanche from the roof - the noise is a bit scary!

Mol hope Everything is ok with you

keep how are you? I'm still planning on testing tomorrow. I'm a bit tempted not to test but I Think that would mean intense craziness waiting to see if AF turned up or not. I Think I prefer the yes/no certainty of an FRER.

I'm still feeling fairly normal, physically at least! I was at a Conference yesterday so I had to concentrate to understand what was being said, though I did allow myself 30mins of mentalling during a presentation in Norweigan, there's only so much concentration I can manage :o

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 08:32

Are you not on the fanny bullets beedle ? If not, great sign you've not got AF yet. Crossing everything for you for tomorrow xx

Imps9 · 26/01/2016 09:05

Yes snow had completely gone Beedles. Didn't look half as pretty! (Well that's a bit of a lie actually - the Yorkshire Dales are gorgeous).

Golly, I'm so excited/nervous for you both. I want you both to get BFPs so so so so much. I'd have tested at least 3 times by now I have been known to test three times in one day even when getting negatives

Was talking to Mr I about cost of IVF last night and he's pretty relaxed about it. He said that the reason we both work is to spend money on stuff we want/want to do and this falls into that category in the same way that holidays/weddings/etc do. And he made a valid point that we've saved so much by not have a child before now, we're not really any worse off. So I shall stop fretting about it and take his more chilled out view.

BeedlesPineNeedles · 26/01/2016 09:47

No keep no fanny bullets, I have plenty at home so I might be tempted to use them if when I get a BFP. I'm only on CD24 12dpo so I wouldn't expect AF quite yet anyway.

imps its probably a good thing that I can't get FRER here ( I have 1 or 2 at home don't worry) because I would have been very tempted to test earlier if I could just buy Another test to use tomorrow. I was almost tempted to use an IC this morning but I don't Think they're as good as FRER and if it was negative I would just assume it was wrong!

I'm still prodding boobs to make them sore, only my own not anyone else's :o

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 10:39

But no spotting or anything yet? Yay....

BeedlesPineNeedles · 26/01/2016 11:08

No spotting or anything, but that's normal for me.

I guess we'll know tomorrow, I'm feeling rather scared, I quite like being "maybe pregnant". it seems much less worrying than being actually pregnant, and less upsetting than being definitely not pregnant. Perhaps I could just not test at all and be "maybe pregnant" for the next 36 weeks :o

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 11:14

I agree beedle, that maybe is quite nice. But I agree with you I'd rather know if AF were about to arrive
God I feel sick just thinking about testing

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 11:28

And no it's not normal it's cos you're DIFFED

BeedlesPineNeedles · 26/01/2016 11:40

God I feel sick just thinking about testing

I know, me too. I so want it to have worked for both of us

BeedlesPineNeedles · 26/01/2016 11:41

obviously the sickness is very early morning sickness for both of us

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 11:46

Obviously

I have small bruises all over my tummy from the clexane, at first I thought I was getting more moles... Hmm

BeedlesPineNeedles · 26/01/2016 11:59

if you'd been more organised you could have spelt out pregnant across your tummy!

How long will the injections continue?

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 12:31
Grin I think until 7 weeks if bfp
Imps9 · 26/01/2016 13:07

Remind me what clexane is for? I can't remember if I'm having that or not this time.

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 13:37

It's a blood thinner/ stops clots. Some unrobust evidence it helps with implantation since that seems to be a problem for me

Imps9 · 26/01/2016 13:40

How does is differ to prednisolone (sp?). Sorry, I am a bit dense when it comes to drugs.

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 26/01/2016 13:50

Re clexane, Coventry implantation clinic recommend it as it has cryoprotective effect which aids successful implantation and formation of the placenta. Incidentally prof Quenby who is one of the 2 prof's there is one of 3 in the UK who are involved in the new miscarriage research centre that Tommys are funding.

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 26/01/2016 13:51

Pred is the drug they use if you have elevated Natural a killer cells, to suppress your immune system

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 14:04

All these things we didn't have to know

I think I smell of vomit but can't be sure, kip threw up on me in the car on way to work, have washed it off obv, but you know how these things linger...

preggo super smell obviously

Loopyaboutmy2boys · 26/01/2016 17:21

Was just trying to be helpful to Imps ....

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 17:28

I know! Meant to write 'wish we didn't have to know'!

keepitgoing · 26/01/2016 17:30

Do you think you've felt implantation yet loopy?

Imps9 · 26/01/2016 17:34

Thanks Loops. I may ask BH if I am taking/should be taking this for the next round given possible implantation issues.

And yes, have you felt implabtat
