New IVF/IUI Thread

IvytheTerrible · by **IvytheTerrible** » Fri May 11, 2022 8:22 pm

Hi everyone :wv

I can't keep up with this thread at all, I really feel we are all due some good news and I have everything crossed for some BFP's in the coming weeks :babydust:

Jewelb- hope you are surviving the 2ww. If I ever get to this, I was contemplating going back to work, it's only a temp job and I love it, not that much stress or physical. DH has told his manager as he knows him for years but I am holding off telling mine, for a start there is no privacy in the office and I kinda know a couple of people there who are relations of good friends of ours, I would worry the cat would be out of the bag. CFC does offer ICSI if needed but you pay extra for it. I also did acu but my follicles did not grow evenly, it's no harm to do it just in case though. Best of luck to you hun x

AuntieD- I really hope this surgery to drain the cyst works on Monday. Having had a cycle cancelled myself, I know exactly how you are feeling but I also know we would do anything to avoid it so please God you are on here next week with good news.

Slanket, Leaf1 & Busby- Best of luck for EC/ET/FET next week :babydust:

Stillwaiting- positive vibes going out to the two little embies. If I ever get to EC, I know I probably won't have that many either but at this stage I don't care :-8

.

Ouryear and Springlove- thanks for posting, it's heartening to hear the success stories.

Pesto- sorry to hear your story, it must be total heartbreak to get that far and then have that kind of news

to you both.

AFM due AF any day and will be ringing clinic to start short proto (after cancelled long proto) in 4 weeks time.

Hi to everybody :wv

Stillwaiting am thinking of you hun, i know when my due date came round i found it v v hard, hope your doing ok :xox

AuntieD i was due to have a cyst drained in HARI too before my FET, was going to be sedated for it, they dont do it whilst your awake. Mine was gone the day we went in for drainage so you never know.

Am sorry for not doing personals, thread is so so busy can hardly keep up, am thinking of everyone at your various stages in your cycle :babydust:

Blimey I come back from work to find this thread has been really busy all day.

Pesto24: welcome to the thread. Sorry to hear that your last cycle did not work out. The money is a killer especially if you don't get a positive outcome to the cycle.
Pesto I would write down all your questions on a piece of paper for your consultation next week because as sure as god there is always an important thing you forget to ask. Don't forget the doctors are also learning different things about why it didn't work and will hopefully tweak things for a future cycle.

Leaf: Best of luck with EC on Wednesday and enjoy your break from work O-O

AuntieD: Fingers crossed things will look much better once the cyst is drained.Really hope things wok out for this cycle.

Slanket: good luck with your scan on Monday. It's getting close now. There is quite a few of us now at the EC/ET 2ww stage now :o)ll

Hope we see some BFP's on here :babydust:

JB: Hope your pampering yourself :lvs

Well girls everything went well today....both eggs survived and they were very happy with the quality and everything went ok with the transfer so jewel I'm now on the dreaded 2 week wait with you! Only problem is I'm in extreme pain since 4.30 this morning did any of you have that?
Best of luck to everyone else coming up to collection xxx

Still waiting where is your pain?

jewellb · by **jewellb** » Sun May 13, 2022 5:18 pm

still waiting i was very tender after but 2 panadol kinda sorted it out, are you bunged up are they bowel cramps? did they tell you if you were at risk of ohss? do you feel sick or breathless?
i was quiet sore but not enough to wake me up, did you mention it when you were there today? i hope you feel better soon :lvs

jewellb · by **jewellb** » Sun May 13, 2022 5:24 pm

ivy if your in a low stress low physical job i would 100% say go back to work after a few days rest, i am bored off my trolly !!!! my job is very long hours and very physical, with a lot of lifting. so they said in sims no way could i go back.

i hope things fly for you !!!i did short proto 2 but didnt take pill before hand, and thankfully all was ok on the day to start !! :lvs

StillWaiting · by **StillWaiting** » Sun May 13, 2022 6:12 pm

Jewel and suitcase it does feel lie I have bowel problems but it is the worst pain ever on my lower left hand side...they did a scan today and said everything looked fine so I just have to go back if it gets worse.... I was definitely breathless with the pain though I was on the phone to my mom earlier and sounded like I was in labour!
Jewel can u give me some tips for implantation I read so much over the last few months but can't remember anything :-8

Busbybabe · by **Busbybabe** » Sun May 13, 2022 7:20 pm

Stillwaiting : Congrats on having your 2 embies onboard :o)ll

Looks like we could actually be testing on the same day! :babydust:

Sorry to hear you are in pain.
I didn't have any issues after transfer but then again I didn't have a "fresh" transfer. I was in a bad way after egg collection. Have you been drinking plenty of fuids since EC?
Fresh pineapple is supposed to be good in aiding implantation and they are just yummy! I bought 2 today so have them already for tuesday.

JB: are you really going ga ga......I wish I could have gone back to work but it wouldn't have been feasible either.....why don't you bake a nice cake. I'm thinking off getting out me cookbook and making some carrot cake on my time off >:o)

by **suitcase of hopes and dreams** » Sun May 13, 2022 7:45 pm

Stillwaiting congrats on being PUPO :o)ll

On my 2ww i drank lots of M&S pineapple juice, meant to help implantation, must say it was v v nice too.

Did they see any fluid in your scan?? I got bad OHSS and the pain was way worse at night, v bad stabbing pains in upper tummy area. Just keep an eye on it hun, give clinic a shout if your unhappy

Bubsybabe your nearly there :stork:

JewelB hope your not going too insane on the 2ww :babydust:

Big

to everyone else :lvs

Hi to anyone I've missed :lvs

jewellb · by **jewellb** » Mon May 14, 2022 9:08 am

still waiting if its low on the left it could be constipation i got a bit bungged up between EC and ET after taking the solpadol before ec, but i tok a senokot and it sorted it out, maybe drink loads of water, and have some fruit. def 2nd the fresh pineapple, my acu was poo poo'ing pineapple as she said all it doeas is thins the blood and by all means eat it if you want but the asprin and clexane do the same thing, i eat it beacuse it is yummy and will keep you regular as the progesterone gel can bung you up 2.
other tips i was given are to keep your tummy and back warm if you find your tummy is cold out you hand on it to warm it up, dont use any heat pack or hot water bottles!!!!! no direct heaton the area, but if your just sitting on the couch you could wrap a nice scarf around your waist, also keep your legs and feet warm and put them up if you can keep blood flow good to the womb area, the spleen chanel runs down the inside of your legs down to your ankle and i have one of those little heat sack you warm in the micro, if i find that the inside bit of my leg is cold i will pop this along my leg when i have my feet up, i checked if this was ok and my acu said fine.

im not really feeling anything apart from being wrecked and i woke up with a sore throat but thankfully have no tonsils!!! i was worried about my bm's being very dark but i think its from eating spinach every night with my dinner !! i was worried the asprin was causing internal bleeding and thats why i was feeling so exhausted!!!! :duh:

tomorrow will be one wk down and one to go!!!! :hyper:

i think its time to get back to normal i have been minding myself like a china doll and it doesn't feel normal so im going to go shopping today!!!

hey to everyone, busby good luck with your transfer tomorrow another person to add to the 2ww !!! yeah !!!!!!! :o)ll

Busbybabe · by **Busbybabe** » Mon May 14, 2022 9:26 am

JB: I'm in work at midday (early shift). Enjoy your day shopping. I'll take it easy for the first few days too, but I know after 5/6 days I'll be doing my nut in O:|

Less then 36 hours to go now :babydust:

Stillwaiting: How are you doing?
