Same as mine then, so checking for FSH and LSH levels to ensure OV has taken place

Oh Shayera - how awful. I don't know what to say, your poor colleague and his wife. We are struggling to get our little beans, I can't imagine what it would be like to go through a whole pregnancy and lose a baby. Just reminds me that this thread is only the start of a very long journey. Will say a little prayer for the poorly twin.

Sorry to hear you've had no news from your tests. It's so very frustrating all this to-ing and fro-ing. When are you moving? Do you know the area? Could you sign up at a GPs there now and give a friend's address temporarily?

Beanie - poor you. I can't remember being told one way or the other about taking a break with the clomid. Definitely ask.

PL - don't think there is ever a "good" or "bad" time to TTC. Just keep going and what will be will be.

Jaamy · 01/04/2009 22:17

Ooops, started last post about 2 hours ago and then got interrrupted.

Hi Mollie - may be we should take a "thread trip" to the fertility seat. One of us is bound to get lucky . I've had the same sore (.)(.) since OV. Trying not to get hopes up. AF due before the weekend so we shall see.

And just spotted Claire at the top of the list - sorry, did I give you the kiss of death?

Jaamy · 02/04/2009 09:58

...again!

and £u(k and bu&&£r and B!!(k$

a bit fed up!

Guess I will be needing that fertility seat after all.

Sorry Jaamy

Jaamy · 02/04/2009 11:00

Thanks Claire - we will get there in the end!

ShayeraHol · 02/04/2009 20:57

Thanks Mollie - amuses me that you can tell me what my GP is so useless at passing on! Apparently I can phone tomorrow for results of this one so going to try for more info.

Jaamy - move is to the Reading area. I don't really know if it'll be any better or not, haven't got any friends in that bit of Reading so can't ask for input or get a temporary address. May just have to bite my lip until we're shifted (probably got plenty of other things to worry about for the next three months!). Sorry to see you back at the top!

And ditto Claire. We're really racking the numbers up in here

Thanks for the kind words for my mate at work - I haven't heard anything about the little girl, kind of hoping no news is good news.

pinkie08 · 03/04/2009 10:33

Hi Jammy Thank you so much for coming onto IVF thread. Its really early days for us but being of the OCD nature when it comes to testing ihave done loads!!

Yesterday it said +ive 1-2 weeks, this am it said 2-3 weeks thats got to be a good sign i think.

We have a scan on the 20th but might try and find somewhere for slightly earlier.

You are right YOU will get there in the end

barbie1 · 05/04/2009 10:19

hi girls...mum has been staying with us for 2 weeks so its hard to get a word in edge ways let alone get on here well a update from me is that after 200+ days since mc i finally got +ve on the opk thingy!! [bsmile} so i guess im on the 2ww? After calling the doctor im too take the last day of spotting which was the 19 of march as my last af so hopefully things are finally getting back to normal

So how is everyone, sorry for all the af girls...on the positve you are closer to trying again!

beanieb · 05/04/2009 17:07

Hi all, been away for a wedding. In an amazing piece of luck we were seated at a table of strangers, one couple 5 weeks away from giving birth to twins, another couple just had their first scan, the third couple at their first wedding since the birth of their son.

In my head I just kept thinking 'any minute now, any minute now, any minute now' and then someone asked 'so what about you, do you have any children?'

Sigh

On the other hand, someone did say 'well this must be the most fertile table in the whole wedding. Fingers crossed!

PistachioLemon · 05/04/2009 18:47

Evening all, how have your weekends been?

Beanie Wow, what a table. I hate that question, along with the ''Why don't you have children? You'd be such good parents...' comment that usually follows. I usually come out with something vague or lie and say being the eldest of four put me off! How is the 2WW treating you? I'm crossing fingers that some of your table's fertility rubbed off on you...send some this way please Oh and I was wondering, did you find out if you can do month on month off with Clomid?

Shayera I don't know quite what to say about your colleague, how horrible. How were your results from the doc on Friday?

Jaamy Sorry to hear about AF arriving I think we should definitely take a thread visit to the fertility seat of yours... when shall we go?

Molliemooma How's your 2WW? Still sore (.)(.)? Oh I hope it's good news for you. Wednesday is soooo soon, have you held out on the testing? and do you have any other symptoms? I have absolutely zilch to report unfortunately I'm on CD24 so AF due on Friday. But I really don't think it is my month - no particular reason except I don't feel any different, and also I didn't ovulate until CD17 or 18 and I've convinced myself that that is too late to stick. Maybe I need to concentrate on gourmet sex next time! ;)

Barbie Great news about +ve OPK

beanieb · 05/04/2009 23:00

Nothing to report on the TWW so far, We did manage to get back on the horse so to speak so who knows We did joke about it being a fertile table so I'll be shaking my fist if I get my period I think I am on CD18 so another week or so until I have to resist the urge to test. I didn't find out about the clomid thing but have had a chat with my OH and we're going to go for it and make sure we have sex at all the right times when I am on it.

Shayera I missed your posts, so sorry to hear about your colleagues baby.

ShayeraHol · 06/04/2009 20:58

Thanks beanie and Pistachio. We've heard no more from him, so are all hoping that no news is good news and his little girl has pulled through. Also hoping he feels able to take as much time as he needs off - knowing our business they'll think that two weeks is plenty of time for him to get over it...

Anyways, on a me note - sub optimal progesterone levels. Am trying to decide if its better to know there's a problem, so potential to fix it but know there's not much chance until we get through the referral/further checks/treatment section. Mr Hol reckons so, but he's irritatingly optimistic at the moment.

Jaamy · 06/04/2009 22:06

Shayera - I'm liking Mr Hol's optimism. You'll just have to BD for fun until they fix you up at the treatment bit!

Barbie - glad to see it looks like things are getting back to normal for you...now the fun begins!

Beanie - how insensitive of the wedding couple to put you on a table full of new/expectant parents. I wouldn't put a couple without DCs on a table like that even if I knew they didn't want children for fear of boring them silly. Maybe they were hoping that the fertility would rub off on you...I hope it does.

Pinkie - so happy for you. Thanks for popping on here - news of a BFP gives us all hope. Sending you lots of sticky wishes. Feel free to graduate yourself when you feel the time is right. And keep coming back with some updates for us, please!

ARGGH Jaamy I just don't know what it is but whenever I update your stats I change the cycle you are on instead of the CD day! Doh!

Molliemooma · 07/04/2009 18:30

Apologies for the me post, I got a BFP yesterday but I started spotting 4 hrs later and fell apart at work, I had what I thought was an implantation bleed on Friday/Sat nothing Sunday tested yesterday (2 days early) and got a BFP, when I came home from work I lay on the sofa feeling very sorry for myself did another HPT got another +ve. Spotting stopped about 7pm last night and nothing since, did another test this morning and got the quickest darkest line I have every had with any of my pg's.
Not sure what to think at the moment, taking it hour by hour really, feeling happy, scared, lots of hand holding required

Mollieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee - How happy am I for you! (in a not quite right way for someone I've never met ). You keep your feet up girl - you certainly deserve it! Sending you great big sticky thoughts.

Shayera - I guess you were kind of expecting that, but still . Roll on your referral.

Beanie - no worries. Not sure where I am myself sometimes!

ClaireDeLoon · 07/04/2009 22:47

Mollie huge congratulations and sticky thoughts, I hope it all goes well. Lots of positive thoughts coming your way!
