The Trials & Tribulations of Trying to Conceive when its just not happening (12m+)

Rowingirl

We have 4 embryos from 6 mature eggs fertilise using ICSI; the other 4 eggs were immature/over mature. The other 10 eggs were left to fertilise conventionally but no embryos (same as last cycle). Seems we have a fertilisation problem which could explain our fertility. ET provisionally booked for Sunday unless we have at least 2 top quality embryos then we'll have blastocyst transfer on Tuesday.

Hi Mrs TM. I'm not sure if I'm still on the other list but if I am, I'd like to come off it please. Nice to see you posting, have been thinking of you, your OH and baby Dale. You're in my thoughts and prayers xx.

Hi Mrs TM - could you also please remove me from that TTC thread. Thank you. Hope you're ok.

Have removed you both from that list. I still read this list, but since we did get a BFP, I am just going to stick with usually posting on the other thread.

Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers, they are still greatly appreciated. We are doing as well as we can. DH went back to work last Monday after a week off, and things are slowly getting back to 'normal.' I've stopped bleeding, so hopefully we can get back to trying soon. Our bodies are trying to cooperate, it's just our mental states now need to get geared back up to ttc again.

Took the first pregnancy test of the new Clearblue study this morning. I think it's the first time I've been happy to see 'not pregnant' on anything. Means that the hormones have dissipated and hopefully it won't take long to get pregnant again.

Tea - the lists all look good to me. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help!
The front page can be a bit of out date, I only updated when people specifically asked.

RG - great news that you have a little fantastic four of your own! Best of luck for ET.

Mmmmm I think some secretaries need to seriously need some lessons in thinking. Today should have been my ultrasound scan at the hospital, so got a phone call yesterday (well I didn't, they phoned my parents at my old address who know nothing of all of this) cancelling it. Now fair enough I understand things altering and the need occasionally for the appointments to alter but this is the second time it's been cancelled. The secretary just grunted and said she would send out a new appointment some time.
So back to square one with no idea when the rescheduled appointment will be, hubby annoyed as he had took the day off and he's only just started the job this week so it had took some begging to get it off. I'm annoyed as they had my phone number and correct details as I checked last time I was there.


Have also spent half the day trying to track down the results of hubby's SA and my blood tests. No one seems to have them, our doctors don't have them and the hospital reckons the doctors should have them (what's the chances of 2 lots of results disappear to 2 different doctors surgeries). So we don't even have a clue what's going on now.

Absolutely not ttc related but...Argh, ladybugs, I'm so embarrassed. Remember how I told you guys that there's a guy in my office I become incredibly attracted to at certain times of the month? Well today I was sitting at my desk chatting to a male colleague and he came over and I must be near ov or something, because I blushed, blushed!, like a 13 year old. The guy I was chatting to misses nothing and I could feel him watching me which just makes it worse and I'm really fair skinned so its always really obvious.. I'm married and i'm almost 34 - surely I'm too old for blushing when a boy talks to me? It was almost a "these are my feet" moment (I'll explain that on request if I havent already).

If the floor would like to open up, now would be an excellent time.

Tea thanks for taking over, can I please be added to the first post:

Tia86 #TTC1 since 12/12 (27 years old, OH 28). First appointment with FS booked for March. Scan for PCOS booked for Feb.

Sounds promising RG, not that I know much about it.

PM - I cant believe your details aren't being prioritised

Vesper - how frustrating, hope you have managed to track down the test results at least - I blame receptionists getting into the Friday mood too soon

Oh dear code, if it makes you feel any better I always go red when talking to male colleagues - the classes I teach always comment on it too which now makes it worse! At least you find the colleague attractive, it happens to me with anyone!!!

Vesper I hope the new date is close for you, poor show from the hosp IMO. Hugs to you.

Code ouch your not the only one, embarrasing though.

Tia I'm pretty fed up with the whole situation tbh. I know I bleed on the inje tons but after a few weeks of bleeding it settles down. It's likely the 4 more rounds of injections will take a year to complete the either surgery or Icsi.

Looks as though the test results have disappeared into a black hole, hospital says they definitely don't have them, and neither doctor has had any. All the hospital said is there is a chance they are still being processed, no way are they still being processed surely? This is a combination of day 3 bloods, day 21 bloods and SA all gone, all done on different dates.
Without knowing who we are meant to talking to, no idea where to go from here. Suppose have no choice but to wait until a new date comes through, but can't see how that's going to help as that was only an ultrasound scan, it wasn't an appointment with the fertility clinic.


So so upset right now. This is the first time in quite a while when I could really just give up. Sorry its just me being over emotional but its really hit home that my miscarriage 8 years ago was the last sniff I had of being any where near having a child.
