Who's in the 2ww now?

[Sherri90049]

I have been noticing that many people are at various points in the 2ww now! So why don't we start the 2ww train again? So far as of 7/16/10 I have seen: (and I'm sure I'm spelling names wrong and not remembering everyone, so please correct me and/or add your name to the list or tell me and I can add it.)

Don't worry about it.  I understand...sometimes it seems like no one else gets it.  I get it believe me.

[AliceW]

BFN. Nurse said, "Take this month off, then you can make an appointment for the cycle after that." Really? I can do that? With whose money magically appearing in a month?

I feel alone and really really really old and pointless. How do we keep going?

Sorry, Honey001, I don't want to discourage you by posting this right below your post. It just seems that nothing at all will ever work for me. IVF really does work for some people, and for some of the good ladies on this board it has been a success.

[Honey001]

I am having a hard time following all these abbreviations!  I'm in my first cycle of IVF and today is my last day of stims??  I will go have the egg retrieval on Friday.  I'm not sure the follicles.

[AliceW]

Thanks so much, Sherri. I thought the 2ww was bad--how did I forget that the 6 hour wait is worst of all?

I can't decide whether to spend it indulging in enjoying being Pregnant Until Proven Otherwise, or concentrating on work. Or should I be preparing mentally for disappointment? I could start thinking about another HSG to see how my stuffy tubes are and planning an IUI, which at least I can afford; or draft a plan for how to afford IVF at a different clinic. Maybe all the numbers weren't in when I checked last year, but there are two other clinics in this area with better live birth rates for women over 42.

No matter how calmly I write now, thinking about it is making me want to cry. Mood-crazies continue--thank you, progesterone supplements.

[Sherri90049]

Just saw this, Alice! I understand how nervous you must be! Hang in there! Just a few more hours! You know, I think having to work at least keeps you reasonably busy to make the time go by a little faster. I hope that you get good news in the afternoon! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers all day! SSBD and big hugs! :)

[AliceW]

Uhm. Wow. Sorry about that last message. I have one side effect: mood-crazies. But I guess I really am scared of the blood test.

[AliceW]

Blood test tomorrow morning. I don't even have progesterone supplement side effects left. Once again. I feel like I don't even believe anybody really has babies, it's all some sort of universal joke.

I'm terrified of the emotional crash I know is coming tomorrow afternoon but what can I do about it? Work will have to be business as usual...

Hi Sherri,
I think I am out this month, temp went down and started spotting today! Wow, this was a short cycle!!  

Sending baby dust to the rest who are hanging in there!

Hi Sherri,
Very sorry to heart that. I'm 8DPO but do not think Im going to make it because my BBT is not showing much of a rise. Anyway, best of luck to all the TWWers out there. It is like a lottery!

I figure this thread might be a good place to post this, in case anyone is looking for something else to do during the 2ww other than googling "progesterone side effects" (which is how I've spent several evenings this week):

http://infertilityblog.blogspot.com/

Has anyone else posted about this blog or perused it? It's written by an RE at NYU. He answers various IVF, IUI, and other fertility-related questions and sometimes posts on specific topics such as how embryos are graded. I especially like when he says, "I'm 49, so most of you are young to me." In general he writes with a very warm, encouraging tone.

My blood test is on Wednesday morning (12 days post-transfer). I'm not going to POAS beforehand--I want to enjoy the possibility for as long as possible.

BFP and SSBD to everyone xxx

SSBD to all of US!!!!!!!!!!

[Sherri90049]

You're so funny, Wendy! And so right! :)

[TreeFrog7]

Thanks for putting up this list, Sherri! It's always more exciting in a group - sort of like buying a lottery ticket with your friends, except you have to pee on a stick to get your prize. :)
