I am so happy for you!!! I think the fear of miscarriage is universal for those going through IVF - so you're in good company! Get lots of rest and pamper yourself...while you can!

Tea
I am so so sorry to hear your news. I can't imagine how you must be feeling right now. I'm sending a big hug your way...
We're here if you need to "talk" to someone.
Love, Deirdre

Thank you for all the kind words....and YES...I'm pregnant!! I ended up in the emergency room in the wee hours of the morning on Tues - I apparently have a mild to moderate case of ovary overstimulation syndrome. I was hunched over in pain in my hospital bed when the doctor came in and said "oh ...

Yeah! I did the dreaded pee stick yesterday as well - and I had the faintest of lines. I'm trying not to get too excited - because I understand the trigger shot can give you a false positive. But isn't it exciting!! I can't wait to hear. Fingers crossed....

Good luck Daly. We test the same day. Are you feeling as impatient as I am? Looking forward to hearing your postive news.

Good luck Larisa...can't wait to hear your positive results!

Tea - my thoughts and prayers are with you for Wed. I had tummy cramps last night as well - which has left me paranoid. I test tomorrow...so here's hoping! I'm sure we will both have good news! Keep us posted.

Thanks Allison - you're a sweetheart. The wait is killing me!

My pregnancy test is scheduled for Tues - and I'm passing the time going through these boards - it's so helpful to be in the company of women going thru the same thing! I actually took an EPT this morning, because I am so anxious for results. It showed slightly positive - which can be because of the ...

Finally off of bed rest...yeah! We had 2 good quality embryos transferred on Sunday - now we're just in for the dreaded 2 week wait. Test date is 3/28. Couldn't check this message board during the last couple of days - but was glad to see all the postings when I logged on today. All of you girls are ...

fulloffaith - interesting article. Does anyone know when the embryos actually implant? When you achieve pregnancy naturally - I think it happens 10 days after ovulation. It seems that if you wait for a day 5 transfer - it shortens the time between transfer and implantantion - giving the embryos less ...

Daly
Glad to hear your egg retrieval went well. I had mine done on Tues - and i'm still recovering. The doctor ended up stitching up a tear that was created during the process - and now I'm hobbling around like a little old lady. I can buck up and accept the pain...I just hope it doesn't interfer ...

I think it's still a little early to worry about small follicles. We are a day apart - i started my stims on Fri 3/3/06

The Follistim cartridge is overfilled, for some reason. You can actually use the extra medication - set your dose (in your case, 200) and inject it. When it runs out - it doesn't let you push down on the pen anymore. Don't fiddle with the dial - simple unscrew the pen - drop in a new cartridge (you ...

Hi Everyone
I am so glad to find this website! After 8 years if TTC - and 4 failed attempts at IUI - we are going full steam ahead with IVF. Egg retrieval is scheduled tentatively for 3/14/06....keeping my fingers crossed for some good quality eggs! Nice to know that there are others going through ...
