Hello everyone, Karin - I'm trying my best with food though today I had pizza:))) I see that Riogirl already wrote to you regarding the ticker - looking forward to seeing yours! Kjm - Yep! I'm pretty annoyed that I have to wait until the middle of week 6 to get an U/S but I suspect it's because the ...

Thanks Riogirl, Yes - how true. I am surprised at how one day I can wake up huge, then be totally fine in the afternoon - or the other way around, wake up normal and slowly metamorphose into a whale again later during the day. I had wishful thinking that the IVF impact will fade away by now, but I s...

Thank you Deidraj and Kjm! I'll have to tolerate one more lazy day since I'm back to being bloated (I have had estrogen level up to 10700 last Wednesday), so I want to feel better before getting started. I also read and heard that babies DO benefit from us being active, it isn't only good for our bo...

Hello ladies, I have a question to all of you. I am very fond of working out, which I normally did around 3 times a week (jogging, easy weight lifting, Pilates). I haven't been working out for nearly 4 weeks now because I was so bloated during the stims and was taking it easy ever since - I'm only s...

Hi ladies, Before I write anything else - could you ladies still waiting, answer something to user name "elcope" who has a thread in "Introductions"? I don't think that I can cheer her up at my stage because I got a positive (so far). My heart aches when I read everything she wrote, I feel so strong...

Leora - no, from some reason RE wanted me to schedule U/S only two weeks from now. I started initially with beta 300 15DPO, it was the fact that I doubled in 56 hours that made us understand it was a singleton. I can't imagine how hard it must have been loosing babies so late in your pregnancy. Wish...

Hi Kamina, Greekchick and Amanda! No reason for me to leave! My journey here is still long. Besides, it's not like all of a sudden I live in a different world because we managed it (so far). I think the period of time trying and worrying has left us so that we take nothing for granted and therefore ...

Kjm - Yes, I think it's the estrogen since it reached 10700 two days ago. I too stopped taking the tablets on Monday, but apparently my belly doesn't recall. Gina - congrats on your twins! I know the number doesn't mean that much I guess we figured out it's a singleton when we so the doubling time w...

Riogirl hi:) Thanks...I just wrote to RE about being so bloated. And Klinger - guess what he answered!!! "It's because you're pregnant". We were laughing, then answered the more prompt message saying: "Thank you for the diagnosis Dr. House , though it rather feels more like the OHSS from my last cyc...

Hi lou,

I used it before and it said a boy - now with the date of conception it says a girl.

Hi all and thanks Klinger13!!! It IS an odd thing to say, right? And this RE kept all along our procedures the same tone of cynicism..but I'm all that thankful because if it wasn't for him we wouldn't go and try IMSi. And it was the one technology that resolved our severe male infertility problem, 0...

Leorira congrats!!! You guys are so lucky! Twins are great! We so wished for twins but since our beta doubles slower than every 48 hours, RE told me yesterday that although we started off with a high number (nearly 300) we were now more likely looking at one and a half babies...:( I will only know f...

Hi everyone! We just got our second Beta today, and are thrilled to be finally pregnant. Our first beta was on Monday, we thought we were gonna have twins (this was a dream). Today it was a good number yet RE said it seemed more like one and a half babies rather than two...Still, we are so overjoyed...

Hi Amanda and Greekchick! (Seems like only us three are left here). Greekchick - please take comfort from my story. We had severe male infertility, I mean DH had 0% normal head morphology. But doctors explained to us many times that even when you get these percentages, they will always find when usi...

Dear Amanda, rph, Dee and Kamina. Dear everyone who ever doubted. It works!!! BFP!!!!!!!!!!!! Still many milestones, still need to see on Wednesday and perhaps afterwards if the numbers double like they should, but it works!!! Many more steps before we tell our friends and families, before we can st...
