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 :)

Good luck with your exam, and most importantly have the most AMAZING wedding MPP. Enjoy every minute!

sammy ah bloody AF excuse the pun never turns up when you need

bean how are you feeling? I'd imagine it will take a few days post stopping progesterone, so hopefully AF will be along soon.

MPP, have an amazing wedding and honeymoon! I'm really disappointed it's not your wedding that I'm going to now as well haha!

Sammy, good luck with the call to the clinic. Really hope they let you cycle in June.

Bean, I think it can take up to a week for af to arrive after stopping meds. Hope you're ok.

Banana, good luck for EC! Not that you will need it going to be awesome x

Stealth I feel broken today. Really tearful. Which is fun at work. I felt OK the last two days.

Bean hugs I'm so sorry if my question was insensitive

Really sorry to hear that bean, but not surprised - youve been through the wringer. Work is a blessing and a curse I think. Try to find some time to take care of yourself. It is a shitty thing that has happened and you need time to heal from it all. Big hugs and thoughts your way xxx

hugs Bean

Bean, I'm so sorry, I know the horrible broken feeling in work. It will get easier though I promise. Do you have any plans to try again? I always find planning ahead helps me.

I've finally had some good news and maybe my luck is changing a little. The clinic in Czech have offered me my mini IVF for free in the summer including freezing and also genetic testing for free if I want that. I'm really pleased, we've spent so much money with them and then all the upset yesterday. I just need to hope that I manage to get something from the mini now. It's all a bit unknown as haven't done it before. One good thing though is my genetically normal blast came from a relatively low stimm cycle, 225iu Menopur, and this mini will be 150iu Gonal with clomid so maybe it is quality over quantity. Interestingly banana it was dr shers a/acp which yielded the severely defective embryo!

Bloody hell. 28 eggs!!

Just have to hope they're not all immature and there's a few decent ones in there....!!

Wow amazing banana well done!!

Lucie now that IS good news! Presume that was off the back of their cock up? *

Banana* flipping eck! Well done you!! Come on eggies you can do it!

That's brilliant news Lucie, really pleased that things are looking up for you

Hope you can still start treatment this month Sammy.

Bean, I am also familiar with that post bfn crap at work feeling. I've always taken time off after transfer to avoid stress but sometimes think it would be better to have time off after the result. My AF started the day after stopping pessaries first time and 3 days after last time though I was on extra progesterone. Think it can take up to 5 days. Hope it arrives for you soon.

Wow Banana!! That's amazing, well done you. Bound to be some good ones in there.

Happy wedding day for Saturday MPP!

Goodness Banana!! No doubt you feel a bit achey with that lot!

MPP have the most amazing day x

Good effort Banana!

That is brilliant news Lucie. Fingers crossed for you that this is the one. If you don't mind me asking, what are your plans for the ones you have frozen? I really don't know much about IVF.

Maple it wasn't.

Lucie that's great news

Banana - you need to nc to chicken clearly

Period now appeared. At least that explains the tearfulness.

Thanks everyone.

Brenna, we are banking up embryos and then will do transfers starting with the tested genetically normal one. If we were successful first time the other 2/3 will be kept to try for a sibling. The reason for doing it this way is that if we are lucky enough to get one baby I wouldn't want to be starting from scratch in a couple of years time as my egg numbers are already low. I also find it easier in some ways to separate the the egg collection and transfer process.

Banana!!! Wow! Amazing result :). I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a good fertilisation result for you. How are you feeling?

Lucie - I'm glad they're compensating you. Even if they haven't admitted it, they obviously know they messed up... And actually it really has benefitted you even if it was a shock.

Bean - I'm glad you're out of limbo now, but sorry for AF all the same.

I called the clinic who said they can't rearrange anything until they know when AF will arrive (obviously) so to call back when that happens. I refrained from pointing out that they told me to call today! I think AF will arrive this afternoon, it certainly feels like it! I said 'I assume I just start the microgynon whenever day 2 occurs' and she said 'yes and just let us know' - phew! Xx

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. Wishing you a full, noisy, messy happy house in the near future

Have some bean.

AF has finally rocked up this morning. So I'll give the clinic a call today, and should (fx) start taking microgynon tomorrow. Xx

lucie that's great news about the free mini IVF.

sammy hurrah for AF finally showing its face. And bean

Apols for crap reply - am on phone, properly reply with personals to follow!

Got the call of dooooom from the love lab. Of the 28 eggs, 22 were mature, 19 of which fertilised overnight. Phew!

Banana that's amazing!!

Congratulations banana!! Hope you're feeling ok. Xx

Brilliant news Banana, how are you feeling?

Glad AF finally showed up Sammy and you can get started on your cycle.

Have a lovely bank holiday weekend everyone

Amazing news banana! What great news going into the bank holiday weekend. Good luck for the next few days.

Trixie, hi! How are you holding up? Hope all's going well. I have my fingers crossed for you.

Lucie, so pleased your clinic have finally done the right thing. Sorry for all the heartache though. Your luck is definitely changing.

Pleased af has arrived for you Sammy. Do you have a date now? Sorry I've forgotten, are you doing a fet or fresh?

Hello to all!

How are our grads by the way? Boris, Stealth, all going well?
