TTC for 10 months or more, and now we're moving onto thread 4! Ten plussers welcome!

[MPP81]

Thread for anyone TTC for over ten months. Please feel free to join us!

Took the liberty of starting a new thread (with what is obviously a brilliant piece of rhyme!) as I assume everyone else is sleeping peacefully right now :)

Still no AF, going to do preg test when I get home (that's always sure to bring on the bleeding) as it has in every other case!

I know when I ov'd because I saw the follicle on the dildocam screen. hurry uuuuup!!!

Everything crossed Itsme

Congratulations on a great haul trixie! And best of luck for your update tomorrow and lots of fertilisation.

Great news for you too stealth, must've been amazing to hear that heartbeat!

Hi to everyone else, I'm still keeping up but not posting much as trying to chill out a bit about it all.

Sorry, forgot to say congrats to you banana for all your follicles! Your body is confusing everyone but great that it's playing along at making eggs! Good luck for ec.

Good luck itsme. I have my fingers crossed :)

Brenna - I'm glad to hear ddog is feeling better. It's so worrying when fur babies are poorly.

Maple - I read the fault in our stars (brilliant but sad), a couple of Cathy Glass biographies and too close to home by Linwood Barclay.

Trixie - congratulations on your 14 eggs, will be looking out for your update later on! Fx the OHSS stays away!

Banana - I have the Zika one too, and like you am relieved not to have travelled!

Itsme - any news??!

Waves to star!

As for me, I'm on cd23, but not sure when to expect AF as I haven't temped. The clinic have me starting the pill on cd2, which in their plan is the 24th. We'll see!
I have picked up a cold somehow (plane probably). Have never been so happy to have one though, it lessons my fears around immune issues. Xx

It'sme how are you getting on today. Thinking of you.

Any news itsme??

Out of our 14 eggs 10 have fertilised which is amazing! So so relieved. We're provisionally booked in for transfer on Friday early afternoon. I would rather have a day 5 transfer but the embryologist said that if it is clear which one is best on day 3 they'd prefer to put it back then. If there are several at the same stage it will be Sunday.

Wow Trixie that is brilliant news!! Will you be transferring one and freezing the rest??

Amazing news Trixie! I'm sure with 10 fertilised you'll have enough to go to day 5

How are you feeling today?

Still no period, didn't do a test - I actually don't have any left in the house which just goes to show how unlikely i think it is to be pregnant.

I keep feeling I'm about to come on, I've felt like this since Saturday so throught id be early. I'm still only day 30 so hardly very very late (I'm normally 26-28 days)

I've got spots, sore boobs and I was mildly moody so I'm definately due on.

I even wore white knickers to invoke the law of sod. Just want it to hurry up.

Trixie I hate the limbo stage, I'm on day 5 of brown spotting - waiting for CD1! It started a bit earlier than usual but equally it has happened before and I've had spotting for 7 days before so not thinking it's anything other than AF! Just want to get on with a new cycle!

That is brilliant Trixie. Best of luck.

Fingers crossed that you are actually upduffed Itsme.

Trixie - that's great. Well done to your DHs' swimmers. Hope they all divide and conquer properly.

Argh I meant itsme not Trixie! Sorry both!

Maple it's nice to know I'm not the only one. A year ago I'd POAS like no tomorrow, but I've lost a bit of that pizazz.

Now I'm just worried about getting my day three blood tests done!

Trixie! Congratulations :). Brilliant result.

My cousin had a beautiful baby girl today

Hugs Sammy Congratulations to her.

Tummy is a bit tender but I'm actually feeling pretty good Banana. Was so sore and bloated last time was fully expecting the same this time.

We have to wait and see how they do over the next few days Maple but plan is to transfer 1 and then freeze anything that is suitable for freezing.

Boris, was pretty surreal being conscious for EC, was fairly woozy but could see the follicles on the screen and the needle going in to collect the eggs. So proud of DHs swimmers.

Lucie, was your blood test today?

Itsme fx for a pre IVF BFP.

Sammy. Hopefully your turn very soon.

Sammy I'm sorry, your turn is getting ever closer though. Hugs.

Congratulations trixie! How amazing! Just intrigued - what was the IVF/ICSI split in the end?

So sorry Sammy, it's so hard isn't it - you're happy for your cousin but devastated for you Fingers crossed you're up very very soon. And yeay for your cold! TTC makes us grateful for the weirdest things

Star, out of the 5 selected for ICSI they said 1 wasn't suitable and 3 of the other 4 fertilised. And then 7 out of 9 for IVF.

Trixie, that's brilliant news! Good luck for the next few days will be looking out for your updates.

I've really struggled today. DH is not dealing with the stress of all this too well now. It's gone on so long it's really starting to get to us now and we are worried about the results of today's blood test because of the pregnancy tests not getting any lighter. I can't see a light at the end of this at the moment.

Trixie congrats on ten little embryos!! I have everything crossed for you for the next few days x

Lucie it sounds so so tough, when did they say you were likely to get back to normal levels after the injection? I don't know very much about this so all I can say is I'm so sorry for you

Big love and hugs lucie - the miscarriage limbo is completely and utterly shite

It's so bloody cruel to be neither pregnant nor sufficiently un-pregnant to be able to move the fuck on

I just felt like I was being shat on over and over. If the miscarriage wasn't bad enough, i felt like I was being doubly punished. I couldn't sustain a pregnancy - and apparently couldn't even miscarry properly. I won't offer any platitudes like 'you'll get there in the end' - of course you will, but that's no bloody comfort right now. Just lots of hugs,
