Hi everyone,

So my otd was this Friday and today I had no symptoms or cramps whatsoever. Just been to the toilet to find af has started with a vengeance so that's me out!

Oh well...onwards and upwards! At least I have my frosties 😁

Good luck to everyone else in their 2ww at the mo!

Honey I'm so sorry... I remember how it feels. Take some time for a short grief and then prepare for the next steps. Maybe you need to change your lifestyle or to try acupuncture, I heard it can be useful. Or maybe make some changes into your treatment. I changed a clinic and got much better result,although it resulted in mc. Anyways, keep fingers crossed for you. Take care and be kind to yourself. Few days off would make you feel better xxx

Hi Petricker

Thanks for your reply. Sadly I've already been having acupuncture since sept. We're having icsi due to male factor infertility and the embie we had transferred was apparently top grade....looks like we were just unlucky!

We do have 5 in the freezer which is good news....my trouble is fitting treatment around work! I can't start anything now til end of June earliest grrr xxx

Oh then I wish you all the luck in the world! Too bad such things happen and we can do nothing at all to fix it, but to try again. It's like something is not enough, the worst part is that you can't know what exactly.

5 wonderful blasts, thats lovely. Regarding your work, well... I know that waiting is killing believe me , but take it as something you can't change. On the other hand, it's even not that bad, your body needs to recover and June/July is a good time. Try to find positive sides in every little thing. Xxx

Thanks...just my luck it starts just as I was off to bed. Hope I get some sleep as I have a lovely busy day waiting for me in the office tomorrow. No chance of taking the day off as I've had too much time off sick, my work don't know about the ivf and our new holiday quota starts on the 1st April. ..just gonna have to woman up!! xxx

I totally know that feeling. At least you have your snow babies and you don't need to do all the injections for them I think so hopefully..slightly less crap next time but double the emotional crap...hugs xxx

Oh no mate. Really sorry to hear this. At least with 5 frosties you've got some chances sat in the freezer. Others can comment but I thought it's easier to transfer with less drugs.

Big hugs x

Aw thanks...strangely I feel ok. I'm not devastated, it's just one of those things...time to focus of having fun for a change! Helps I've just had a massive bonus at work so I'm going to enjoy every penny of it over the next few weeks. Life is for living ha! xxx

so sorry to hear this Oakey but you sound so strong and that will get you through this. Enjoy that bonus to its fullest, treat yourself, be kind to yourself and make sure you get some pampering in. Xx

I am so sorry to hear this, look after yourself and enjoy your bonus!!!

I think I will be out soon only a matter of time before af arrives xx

I'm really sorry this hasn't worked but the odds are one of those Frosties will definitely take! I hope work isn't to bad for you today and we see that positive result soon. In the meantime I hope you are going to have some fun. Take care of yourself xxxx

Hi Oakley, so sorry it didn't work this time :( hopefully at least one of those Frosties is a winner, I'm sure they will be. I'm loving that you've just had a massive bonus and are planning to enjoy it in style! Great attitude! Sending lots of love and hope the pain has eased off this morning for your busy day at work xxx

I am so sorry, but I think wine, cocktails maybe, hot baths, sex are all now available. It sounds like you have lots of options with so many frosties. Xxxx

😢so sorry to hear this.glad u r being positive tho and looking forward!! Big hugs xxx

So sorry to hear! Take care of yourself xx

Oh Oakley I'm so sorry. Take this time to grieve this loss and it is one. I think your positive attitude is amazing and truly insipriational. I agree with others have some "you" time out and try to enjoy yourself. Lavish yourself with that bonus! 👠👛👗🍾💋 I also haven't told my work about fertility stuff-I wouldn't want to be treated any different. I think clinic would ask you to have 3 periods between treatment to allow your body to "rest". Brilliant that you have some Frosties in the freezer and I hope next round is successful. Lots of love to you. X

Hello everyone!

Thank you so much for all your lovely messages. You guys really are a tremendous support and I don't think I could have got this far without you!

I haven't been able to reply to every message individually as I'm at work...and you know what?...its the best place for me right now. It's nice to be around my work folk who know nothing about my plight....makes me feel normal!

I've phoned the clinic and they've said to carry on with the progesterone til my otd on Friday...and I still need to have my blood test Friday as apparently this could give them clues as to what went wrong.

So all in all, I'm doing ok. I might have a few tears tonight if I feel like it but I'm not gonna force them. As I said before, time to get back to normal for a while...and have a bl@@dy good knees up!

Much love to you all, you fabulous people! 🤗🤗🤗
