Hi all thought might pop over here now I've started jabs. Anyone else just starting a stim cycle? Trying to stay calm! How does everyone else try to keep calm?

Barefoot Congrats on transfer & best of luck - would be so perfect if the last of this batch works for you x

Jazza Welcome! I find it hardest to keep calm when in a waiting phase - getting daily updates of where your embryos are at after EPU but before transfer is the hardest time for me. I get super excited when entering the next cycle as I feel it's so full of hope! Hope you get used to it soon

AFM: DH "made me" POAS last night & BFN. Official BT tomorrow but pretty sure I'm out. Will have to take a month off & then begin another stim in April. Will be hanging round in the meantime hoping to hear good news from the rest of you! x

Welcome Jazza, Im with Spotty... whats calm?? original.gif No in all seriousness I try to get out of the house as much as possible with DD and spend alot of our time at parks playing. It makes the day go quicker. And for our next cycle Im staying away from google. It is no way my friend. All the best for you new cycle coming up!

Barefoot: Goodluck!

Emmsie: Oh Em, good luck for tomorrow. Your not out yet, anything can happen.

Hi everyone else original.gif

AFM: had another BT today and hcg went from 3600 on monday to 9070 today... so very slow. My prog also dropped from 110 to 80 so hopefully this is the beginning of the end of this torture.
Speak soon

Hi Jazza - welcome. I also find the first part of the cycle OK because I am 'doing' - jabs, scans etc, and trying hard not to forget anything. Keeping on top of it is HARD with Mummy brain. It's the 2WW which is the killer for me, because I'm not doing, just waiting.

Emmsie - no good on the POAS front. Would be nice if the BT came up trumps, but you sound OK. Will you be alright and ready to go for another stim if it's not? This cycle was a bit gut wrenching to get only one average transfer from a whole stim... I really feel for you.

Glitterz - so tripled in 6 days? Is that really slow at 6.5 weeks? This must be excruciating for you. You do sound quite resigned though, as if you were ready for it to be over? I guess it would be too painful to continue to have excited hopes. Does this sort of thing happen often - with an apparently non-viable PGH which starts really poorly and just keeps limping along for a few weeks? I guess it might happen a lot in the fertile world, but no-one knows because they don't have as much testing as us. I can't imagine how you're handling this. I would not sound as dignified as you.

Me - I'm alright. Waiting for this FET cycle to really kick off later next week. I've got a scan on Wed, but we're going interstate for a wedding next weekend, so I am praying that I don't need to transfer at that time. I shouldn't - but Murphy's Law, right?

LOL-yes calm is probably the wrong term. How about stopping from going completely mental!!.... and without wine,chocolate, tea & coffee-its cruel!
No youre all right- gotta keep busy. Had a great day out with DS and my 2 nephews today. Just the ticket to tick another day off the list.
Thanks for the welcome girls.

Didn't get a chance to get on here yesterday with results as our internet connection wasn't working - couldn't even get on & consult Dr Google!

So my official BT yesterday (9dp5dt) came back as 6. Grrr the rollercoaster continues. Obviously it is extremely likely it's another chemical pregnancy (I had one when TTC#2 with hcg at 11) but of course I have to continue with prog pessaries & go for another BT in 2 days just to string the whole thing out even more! I thought AF had arrived yesterday but just had a bit of brown blood when wiping & a tiny bit of red blood then nothing since then. So now I keep thinking I wonder if it could've been a very very late implantation etc etc - especially considering it was such a slow embryo to begin with. Torturing myself I know but there you go - can't help it!

Hope you are all feeling more sane than me!
Cheers

Hi Emmsie,
Oh you poor thing. The silly waiting game. When is your next blood test?
Its a good thing the spotting has stopped, and maybe it is a late implanter?
Oh good luck! See, those morulas are little fighters, and hoping yours continues to be a strong fighter.

DD just woke after just 1 hour sleep... doh!!!!

Glitterz.
