Yeah - I keep trying to tell myself that it's very early. It seems like there are people on the board who have the BFP and still don't have any symptoms. I think it's really different for everyone so I'm going to keep praying for good news on Thursday.

I had some pressure in my uterus right after ...

Hi lilmd! I'm still in the 2WW. My BETA is on Thursday. It does seem like everyone on here already has their BFP!! I'm hoping for their luck to rub off on the rest of us too!!

As for symptoms, I feel like I keep asking this question too. I can't really say I have any symptoms right now. I've had a ...

Thanks Niki! I haven't done a HPT yet and I'm really going to try to hold off. My BETA is on Thursday so it's only a few days away. I feel like I've made it this long so I might as well wait for the results now!! I'm just really hoping for the best. Outside of the mystery headache, I don't really ...

Hi Jenn! Very crazy - my clinic is the Cleveland Clinic as well. But my doctor is Dr. Goldberg from the Solon office. Absolutely love him and all the nurses. They really have made this such a great experience.

Now I just really hope I get a BFP on Thursday. This week is going to take forever I ...

Hi Jenn. I'm so sorry for all you have going on. It does seem like everything happens all at once. I'll be thinking about you and your mom tomorrow and hoping for the best!

Are you still having the cramps?? I'm sure your RE is doing the right thing having you come in so quickly.

Hey stayinpositive - it is nice to have someone on the same schedule. We can pull for eachother!!

As for symptoms, I was crampy after the transfer but not as bad right now. I'm a little more tired than usual and am very bloated but nothing too crazy. I don't really have any clear symptoms yet. So I ...

Hi Waiting!!

I took Femera for our IUI cycles. My dr said it's similar to Clomid but is supposed to be better b/c it does not stay in your system as long. I guess it's not approved for fertility treatments yet but my dr has had a lot of success with it.
It didn't work for us but that was more b/c ...

Hi stayinpostive - My BETA is on the 26th so we are kind of on the same schedule. I also did a Day 3 transfer and my doctor told me the same thing. I was surprised they were doing Day 3 b/c when I came back for the transfer I still had 6 embryos going that they were hoping to freeze on Day 5 or 6 ...

I never thought I would WANT to have a pregnancy filled with morning sickness and all the other "fun" symptoms!! My mom has always told me that she never had any symptoms and I always wished that I would be the same way. Now I would love some sort of sign - haha!! I'm glad I'm not the only one ...

Congrats tburks!! That is just awesome!! :D

All these positive results make me feel better. Were you having any symptoms before your BFP?? I don't go for my BETA until next Thursday (2/26) but I'm not feeling too much yet. In fact, I feel like my breasts were sore and I was more bloated right ...

My DH and I are going through our first IVF. I had egg retrieval last Monday (2/9). They retrieved 22 eggs and 12 fertilized. We transferred 2 "perfect" eggs on Day 3 and froze 4 others ...
