Thanks LadyLottie!

Wish I hadn't tested  :(

Have been trying to reassure myself by looking at charts on fertilityfriend - loads have negative results then positive ones... 

So keeping fingers crossed ^2ww^
Single broody lesbian! Decided to go it alone when Ms right failed to show up in time and biological clock was ticking too loudly to contemplate waiting any longer... AI with KD.

#1: Dec 2009. Looks like probable fertilisation and implantation but didn't stick
#2: Jan 2010.  AF arrived early. BFN
#3: Feb 2010  BFN
#4: May 2010 BFN

#5: June 2010 OTD 27/6 Woo Hooo! BFP :-)

First scan 22/7 All looks good, measuring 12mm so spot on for dates and heartbeat heard (wow wow wow!).

Scan 2nd Sept: All looking good - baby wriggling it's little feet in there!!!

Angelmine, step away from the peesticks it's still too early to test ^police^ ^police^!!

BB, how are you today? Glad that your headache went yesterday  ^hugme^. Do I need to send the   ^police^ ^police^ round to yours too??

Another okay day for me - so far. Would still like to know one way or the other   ::)

Hope everyone else is okay  ^reiki^ ^fairydust^

Lou-Ann I am so impressed, you are doing so well  ^hugme^

Unfortunately I need the  ^police^ ^police^ ^police^ as well as Angelmine  ::) I really haven't had a good day, felt very low and deflated. So this afternoon I decided to do one of my ultra early tests, I know its crazy considering implantation might not of even happened yet but I had to do something. So I drank little and waited four hours and then pee'd into a pot and it was nice and concentrated (sorry, tmi). Of course it was a bfn but strangely I feel better for having done it.

I am thinking about what next. I was going to try and go straight out again next month for another IUI, assuming I can find a dog sitter. But I don't know now. This feels like a lot of torture for low odds. I have enough saved for one cycle of IVF (hopefully, depending on drug costs) and I was going to wait until I had done at least one more IUI before using that but now I'm wondering whether to just go straight for the IVF. What do you all think? I'm sorry, I know that I'm being a moaning grump who needs a bit of gratitude  :-\ I can't believe that I'm almost looking forward to work tomorrow  ;D

Help! I think that I've totally lost the plot  ^idiot^ ^idiot^

Hi ladies

No point in me telling u to stop with the testing  ^police^as Im sure we have all been there :)
I did the same on my first IUI but then went the other way and thought if AF don't
show on expected day [I'm pretty regular] I would test, never got that far!!
I am on my last option now as like you BB I don't have the money for another IVF, told myself
3 IUI's and one IVF. I have got 5  ^snowflake^should this attempt be unsuccessful  :(
I'm really stressed and over sensitive at the moment [just kicked the boiler as broken again!! ^bigbad^
and over reacting to everything - I'm hoping its the hormones ???

Stay positive all

Aww BB ^hugme^, step away from the peesticks  ^police^ ^police^, it's too early ^hugme^ ^hugme^ ^reiki^ ^reiki^

Hopefully you won't need to have another cycle of tx ^pray^ ^reiki^, besides you need to pass that bfp baton onto me  ^reiki^ ^pray^

Please don't apologise, that's what we're all here for. Its a hard decision to make moving onto IVF. I know that I am not ready to go down that route yet. I had good blood results and have age on my side, so would like to try the less invasive route a few times before moving on. However, everyone is different and if you feel that it would be better for you then go for it. It may be worth asking some of the others that have moved onto IVF already.

I hope that you manage to regain a little sanity tomorrow at work ^hugme^ ^reiki^. Think I prefer to be at home as I don't have to pretend that I am not thinking about the 2ww ;D

Teela,  ^hugme^ for you too, hopefully it is the hormones and you will only need to go back for your frosties for siblings ^reiki^

HI all,

I can totally understand where you are coming from BB although I think you should keep the positive thoughts up at the mo, as everyone else has said even though you got a negative result today it sounds like it is way to early to test and anything can happen yet,  so please try not to dismiss this go just yet, I know that is easier said than done though.   ^pray^  ^reiki^

What did Reprofit recommend when you were there, did you discuss your next steps if it didnt work this time? Do you know how much Reprofit charge for IVF?

I am still weighing up pro's and con's of one medicated IUI or going straight to IVF, its a real hard decision to make, seems like spending such a large amount of money at one round of IVF is such a big gamble, hopefully Ill make up my mind this week!!
Maybe ill just get valentines day out of the way, just in case the milk tray man turns up on my doorstep with lots of healthy sperm and the biggest bunch of flowers !!  ;D (positive thoughts eh)

Good luck to all the other 2 ww ladies at the mo.

I have to say after 3 IUIs i have never made it to OTD before testing (sorry  ^police^ )... I always start out with good intentions, but curiosity / insantity always get the better of me!

I have been to my friend's daughter's christening today - so have been trying to dodge wine, soft cheesey things, etc without being obvious  ::)  - not easy!

I'm back at work tomorrow so maybe I will have some distractions to stop me obcessing over 2ww (at least for a few minutes of my day  ;) ).

Hope you are all doing ok, Love Krissi  xxx

Tis odd but I always had to be forced to test on OTD and not wait longer  ^idiot^. I used to love the idea of being PUPO and never wanted the bubble to burst  ;D ;D. The morning I got my BFP I had friends texting in total exasperation because I wouldn't get out of bed and do the test  ;D ;D ;D

LL ;D ;D ;D that's so funny.

Thanks Lou-Ann, Jah, Krissi and Teela. I am, thankfully, feeling heaps better! I think that I needed to do that test, not sure why but I obviously did because I felt a little better straight after.

Still keen to hear peoples thoughts on IUI or IVF, although feeling a little more positive than I was that maybe I won't need to make that decision  ^reiki^

BB - only you can decide what to do, but if I were your age I would definitely pursue a few IUI's first. I only went straight for IVF because of my age and my FSH levels (which would indicate I had gone through the menopause and come out the other side!)  Try to stay positive  ^hugme^

Here's some  ^reiki^ ^reiki^ ^reiki^ for Teela, Lou-Ann, Angelmine, FM and Krissi and a few  ^police^ ^police^ ^police^ for good measure.

AFM - I'm with LL, I want to be pupo for as long as possible  ;D - I haven't even bought any tests and don't plan  ;) to until the day before OTD.  I've had mild AF pains today, so hoping that is a good sign and that I'm not just imagining it!  ^idiot^

Take care everyone -  ^wave^ to the other ladies - thanks for your ongoing support  :-*

hi BB,

having done 3 iui's that didn't work, then a tube test which was inconclusive I moved to mild-ish IVF, 3 goes didn't work (1st was chemical BFP) - I am now switching back to IUI's mainly because my tubes have been tested again and are open, all my hormone levels are good, and I figure its just a matter of time and holding my nerve (with any luck!)....so doing IUI's gives me more attempts as I can do 3 of those for one round of IVF equivalent moneywise.
Not sure if that helps!

I know what you mean BB, I have been depressing myself today with reading IUI success rates, which were lower than I had realised (for some reason I had thought they were around 20 per cent).

I'm also getting a bit nervous about taking Clomid, as I don't want it messing up my insides.....I have no idea if I have any fertility issues - could Clomid create problems where there aren't any yet?

I guess as it is so cheap out at Reprofit we might as well give 2 or 3 IUI's a try, but my age is making me nervous as well - at 35 I think my eggs might be ok at the mo but might not be in a few years....

It's so difficult isn't it? If onlt we could win the lottery...I'd be straight on a plane to SIRM......in first class of course.  ;)

Angelmine step away from the pee sticks  ^bigbad^ ^bigbad^ ^bigbad^ far too early hun  :-\

I have had a BFN on OTD using the first pee of the day and then had a blood test at lunchtime and a BFP!!

I have also had a BFN 2 days before OTD and then a BFP a day before OTD so I pretty much take it that at the earliest so it is a waste of money to test any earlier than the day before  :-[

I have had a very busy weekend  ^bigbad^ done lots of housework and even a bit of lifting boxes which had to be done  :-[ usually I rest up for 2WW but this time I decided just to carry on as normal. I wouldn't do that with IVF but with IUI I think its different. I just keep thinking about so many women who are pg and they dont even know it until way past the 6 week period and they carry on as normal so I decided to get on with things as normal in the hope the 2WW madness is less  :) wel thats my theory  ;D ;D if you ask me tomorrow I will probably be full of  regret  :-[  ^idiot^

Lots of  ^reiki^ ^reiki^ ^reiki^ ^reiki^ ^reiki^ to all 2WWers

Thanks all for the support, this is a great board  :)

11DPO today and BBT down slightly (still clearly above coverline but not as high as last 3). Feeling sick on and off but that may just be anxiety. My boobs are tender too, although that could be PMS starting now... Still a bit  ^idiot^ obviously!

Have put peesticks away, not going to test until Thurdsday (14DPO, and I have the day off work then). If it hasn't worked then I'd expect AF on Thursday evening. 

At least I have a very busy few days ahead - won't have much time to think about it!

Good luck to all,  ^2ww^
