The Hut of Gl/Doom... Please don't ask about our reproductive plans as a smack round the head with TCOYF often offends

[OracleInaCoracle]

new thread.

for those who are having problems getting pg

or staying pg

or are simply fed up of being told to relax and having to smile and say "you never know"

Hello bucky - nice to meet you, I have seen your name here before, but I was away from our wonderful hut for a while and only came back a little while ago.

Shrek - ah the time difference thing!!!! strange I had never noticed your odd posting hours before!

I am feeling yuk and going to go for a rest in a minute while I get a chance.

How are all the clomid-ites here?

hello all, rainbows shan't say a word, but am quietly supportive!

am on CD16 and ovulating today i think. v nervous. this is our last official month of clomid havent been too enraged this month, but am gathering info about egg sharing so when we see cons next month we are fully informed. should i call the clinic when if my period comes this month to register intrest in egg sharing ivf?

Hi all

Rainbow - just adding myself to the list of quiet support

Lissie - I have everything (except legs) crossed for you this month. I would call the clinic if I were you - I don't think you can start registering interest etc. too soon. Obviously hope that it doesn't come to that though..

Shrek - I hadn't twigged about your posting times!

Well I've got 1 more injection to go (tomorrow) then my scan on Thursday to see how many eggs I have failed to produce this month!

Oh fuck fuck fuck, don't mind me whilst I slump down in the corner....

My sister has just told me she's pregnant. First month of trying. Oh yes. And I can't even console myself that maybe she's lying and they've been trying ages cos she's really open with me about it all and been having tests as she was concerned, ironically because it was taking ME so long to get pregnant.

So I am now officially that bitter and twisted old woman sat in the [childless] corner.

I managed to do such a good impression of being unphased and happy that she went into the whole 'how she found out' and 'how she told her husband' stories. AND THEN she said those shitty words 'if its twins you can have one' hahafuckingha.

And breath.

picknmix, i agree with shreks, you are entitled to feel upset. ftc does odd things to you.

heebee, how did the scan go?

spoke to clinic about egg sharing and they were v positive, if needs be should have first cycle in a couple of months. just as well, dh joins RAF in jan!!

picknmix life really knows how to kick you in the teeth sometimes..

lissie just read your other thread about egg sharing - that sounds so good. I know what you mean as well (from the other thread) - if I get to the end of the year and they start me on IVF, I will feel so much relief that its out of my hands..

Well, the injections did do their stuff - I had a big fat (his words) 22mm egg on the right side (which was good news as that had failed to produce anything for a while) and a 13mm egg, so too small to be of use. Next cycle he's doubled the dose of the injections to get 2 follicles. I take the injection to make me ov today and try over the weekend...

ooo heebee, thats great news!!

Oh Rainbow . That really sucks.

Shrek .

Rainbow, Im so, so sorry when do you see cons?

shreks, I do understand. its very frustrating and painful. have you had bloods to identify ov?

well, period came 6d early this month. I definately ov'd so christ knows whats happened. have arranged appt with fertility clinic to see implication counsellor re IVF, filled in all the forms (although mother made things as difficult as possible when I called up for family history) and will hopefully start asap provided this last unofficial round of clomid fails (as im sure it will) am oving from tubeless side. i know it and they know it. all that scaremongering about "too many follies, eggs can travel". maybe they can. but that doesnt mean they will!

Oh Rainbow I really hope you get some where would you see the drs.

when not would sorry

shreks, how odd, my period was 6d early this month too!

Is it a full moon or something! All these early periods, also I am currently working with another woman who is now also miscarrying. There must be something up somehow.

I am not sure whether to stop ttc this month. I am not sure how much good it is doing my body, to be pregnant on and off so much. But perhaps it is just the first day of bleeding causing me to question it.

rainbows, that is really odd! re the ttc, you must do what feels best for you. can you get appt with clinic to go over options?

Rainbow - I'm so sorry I agree with Lissie - do what feels right for you..

Shrek - You would think it wouldn't be too much to ask for your cycles to stick to some kind of routine, to try to make an already painful process, slightly less painful..

Lissie - hope the paperwork gets cleared quickly (on the assumption the last round of clomid doesn't do anything).

I'm in the middle of the 2ww. Swing from feeling wildly optimistic, to not at all, which is just stupid as my m/c consultant told me that the steroids I take will mask any pg symptoms.. If this month doesn't work then my consultant's desperate quest for 2 viable follicles means i'm doubling the dose of the injections I take leading up to ov..

Hi all

How is everyone?

Well I just joined Shrek and Lissie with an early af - though only 3 days early...

oh heebee really must be something in the water, though with shreks in oz, i dont know how that would work!

had bad news about egg share, they dont think we are suitable. it is going to head of unit, so should know tomorrow.

thank you lottie, thread here i am really not happy about it. I understand, but i have worked so hard to keep my weight up, dont drink/smoke eat healthily etc, yet all thje stuff thats out of our control might scupper us.
