Pixiesmom, Your #'s sound really good. You have a lot of follicles (but not too many) and they sound like just the right size-I think they usually look for them to be in the 18-20 range, and it sounds like you've got that covered. Many say not to get too caught up in all that, though, b/c they see ...
So sorry that so many of us are having such crap luck this month, but I wanted to wish the remaining 2wwers the very very best of luck! I'm cheering you on and thinking of you everyday! Elena
Scooby and Chitra, I am so sorry to see bad news for you both. I know it is so hard, but time will heal...relax, spoil yourselves, cry all you want, and take as much time as you need.
Hugs to you both, Elena
Congratulations Alisondrake!!! When did you first see a positive? How many days past a how many day transfer? (Sorry, I know I'm nuts!) I am so very happy for you and dh!!!
Alison, you too are very naughty. I tried to stop you on another thread...but, I have been searching all over the net since my ...
Thanks again everyone, it's so nice to know others are cheering for you. Alison, STAY AWAY from the hpt's! Trust me, it's not worth it. Good luck tomorrow. I will be thinking of you and dh.

Thanks for your encouraging words, and I will try to keep up PMA. I know I should have never done it, but the spotting really threw me off. Never again, that's for sure.

Hi girls, Thanks a ton for the positive vibes. I'm feeling pretty down in the dumps. I had some spotting (which def should NOT be, due to prog shots), and did the taboo hpt thing. Got a neg and am now convinced that this cycle is doomed. I just checked out info on others who did hpt at 10dp3dt and ...
Jane, I'm very sorry for your disappointment this time. Good for you signing right back on again! I really hope you are able to take care and be gentle with yourself. Try to enjoy yourself and relax a little before your next go at it.

Allison ( and all fellow ivfers), I think it's really healthy to just full out admit that you're losing it once in a while. I'm sure everyone here can relate and you should feel free to vent whenever you feel the need...You are almost there Allison and everything you're going through is completely ...
Quasi, Hi and welcome! Not to make light of what we are going through, but you made me laugh with post transfer anxiety. I think that pta should be a legimitate mental condition, and that you are probably right to take the week off. I had my transfer last Wed. and feel like I am functioning with ...
Hi again Gail, I just saw your post on the other thread. So, I guess your situation is slightly different, but it still sounds like your issues would have been more inclined to cause difficulty on the egg front. Hopefully, all systems will be a-go for another try. Good luck and I'm thinking of you ...
Gail, I know that you will need time to recuperate, mentally and physically for a while. But I just wanted to mention to you that my doc told us up front that we should go into ivf with the mindset of 3 tries for the average couple. He likened it to baseball averages or shooting a ball in a basket ...
Hi Gail and Nicki,
I'm so very sorry and my heart goes out to both of you. I have not had the same experience, but have suffered through several miscarriages and a cancelled cycle. I know how devastating it can be and I am thinking about both of you. Big hugs, Elena
