Iklefeet - OMG, we all TOTALLY understand!
I'm actually losing the plot here too - it's such a tough process to go through isn't it? People who manage this easily naturally have no idea how crazy it all is! It just takes over your whole life & it's hard to distract yourself in the 2ww. Do you have any reason or symptoms to make you think this round might not have worked?
Oh I know the need to addictively test!
It's the downside of a fresh cycle - the HCG trigger shot - because if you do test you then don't know if it's actually a real positive or not!! I usually end up caving the day before OTD & drive myself bonkers!
I felt exactly the same last night about the hope and disappointment, when I got some bleeding. It only lasted about 5 minutes or so & overnight & today I haven't had anymore so I just really hope it was the cervix being irritated from the pessary or something & nothing more but time will tell.
Bobbinhead - thanks for the advice. I've contacted the clinic so just waiting to hear back on what they say. I don't imagine they'll say to change anything though. I know it can be more common to bleed in IVF anyway (even with my DD I bled on & off until 14 weeks - the blood vessels in the cervix can be fuller with blood & more irritated during & after IVF rounds apparently). I wish someone had told me that at the beginning!
Sorry to hear you're also feeling so down today - this waiting is hellish & that makes 3 of us going bonkers now! Anyone else!?!
FM86 - how are you feeling now after ET? I'm so glad it didn't hurt much at all - maybe it was just a bad doc last time!? How is your temp and cramps today? Oh and please try not to worry about eating specific things - just a normal healthy diet is enough. I actually did the whole pineapple core thing on one of my rounds and it didn't work & then on the round where I had my DD I didn't do anything other than eating a healthy diet, relaxing & being a bundle of complete nerves!! If there was something that did definitely work, all the clinics would be advising it.
Rio - it's lovely still to see you on this thread. Have you got a date yet for your appt?
Goldrush - not long until your scan on Tuesday!
