Hi all sorry I havent gotten back to you. Tnakyou for all the words of support and prayers. Well they were actually answered Fridays blod test where w were expecting to be told to stop support was actually postitive my levels started doubling so it is a BFP for us. Still a little shocked and worried that maybe it wont continue but can only keep praying. I got the results at work and was so shocked that KI asked the girls if she was sure and then asked her to tell me that I shouldnt be stopping progesterone then. she laughed and said definantly not. More bloods on Monday just to be sure.

I quickly rang DH and told him and he didnt believe me the lady I work with had to tell him and convince him I wasnt lying. I had to sit at work for an hour as i was shaking to much to grive home. So for now It is a BFP for me. Thankyou to everyone for you thoughts this is what pulled me through.

Saph, that is such wonderful and exciting news! I have everything crossed for you and I do hope this is a sticker. Does this mean we get to wish you all the best for a H&HP?! Oh, I do hope so!

AFM - slightly sore bbs today, which I hope will increase if I poke them enough . Felt a bit nauseas yesterday and today, but that might be because I've been sitting at my computer all day. Only 500 words to go on my final every assignment!!!

Saph - Congrats. That's great news. I hope the follow up blood test today is all good, and that your levels are rising.

Delly - how are you doing? I hope your exam went well over the weekend. Is there any news yet on your scan to see what's going on?

Seph - not long to go til testing now. How are you feeling? Am keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Wishes xoxo

So much hope, dashed. It looks like I'm out girls, I've started spotting. Expect AF to arrive by Thursday.
It's still sinking in, I really thought this was the one. Wondering whether someone has plans for me that doesn't include motherhood.

Just stopping by to say I'm out now, but it's not too worrying as that means I can get the ball rolling for our FET this month.

Saph - awesome news. Huge congrats to you!!

Seph - there is still a chance honey. Spotting isn't the end of the road. I know that sinking feeling too. So hard to stay upbeat all the time with this. Love your Avatar by the way.

Meo - good luck leading up to your next FET. I wish some of your positive attitude would rub off on me.

AFM - My test isn't until next Monday, but I feel as though I am out already. I'm fairly sure us girls get a good gut feel for these things. I feel normal. Although my bl**dy liver has started playing up again which means I have had to cut back on the supplements. Geez I wish my liver would just go away and come back healthy for once!!

Have a great day girls

Mind hugs, I am interested to hear about your liver. What sort of pain do you have? What is the problem?

I had a third of my liver removed in 06 because I had 21 tumors throughout it. they thought they were cancer but it turned out that they were the result of being on the pill and nothing to worry about at all. Funny thing was I fell pregnant with DS 3 weeks after the surgery ( must of jagged it first time). Synthetic hormones are the cause of my problems, hense the mass doses of drugs for assisted conception.

Persephone - Your av is hot! You are not out yet, two LTTTC girls have spotted and got their BFP's anyway just in this last month. Hang in there and hoping like crazy this is your BFP. Will be thinking of you.

All the other TWW girls -

Hi Saph,

I don't really know what the problem is with my liver. About 2 years ago I started to get aching pains in that area, then about 12 months ago I began getting them around my spleen too. I've had several blood tests and all come back saying that liver is functioning at normal level, but shows I have some inflammation. Have been to chinese herbalist and naturopath. They helped some, but it never lasts. I find that I can't digest prescribed herbs or vitamins/supplements for too long. Fish oil tabs are the worst, and now the aspirin (and champagne!!!). The 3 miscarriages I've had affected my liver. I find that as soon as I fall preg, my liver starts to throb and I get sick with it. I can't tolerate too much alcohol anymore, not that I am drinking much at the moment with the IVF.

I get a lot of little fevers and shivers that can sometimes last days.

That's as far as I have gotten with it. With my FET last week it was only 2 days before my liver started to hurt, so I backed off on the pre-conception supplements and it kind of dies down again.

I'm researching my next steps with investigating it.

Hi again,

Sorry, a bit TMI - have been spotting all day, light to medium brown watery stuff, some occasional cramps, but I reckon this is all over and there's no point execting it not to be. It's a bit earlier than I expected but my cycles can be so wacked it's not unusual.

DH is going away for the weekend to see his family. He's leaving on Friday, before I get the BT results - so it's probably a good thing I know that this is a BFN now, rather than having to deal with it when he's on the other side of the country.

Thanks for all your support girls - and congrats again on the BFP Saph, I'm so happy for you. Will no doubt see you all in here again soon.

Seph.
