Good afternoon ladies! Well, I just got back from my u/s and everything looks GOOD thank goodness! The baby measured perfect for 7 weeks with a heart rate of 145/min. YIPEE! To see that little flickering heartbeat was the best thing in the world. I can rest easy tonight! Still on the progesterone ...

Ange, I have used progesterone in sesame and cottonseed, but never any burning. I have, however, noticed the medicine coming out this cycle. I have a friend who is a nurse that gives my shots, and she thinks its the way she's administering the shot, so she tried a different method, and I just bled ...

Oh, Aunty...they're fighting over who's going to tell you how many GREAT embies you have! Remember...a watched pot never boils. I am sending you lots of wishes that they will call SOON!

Here's to all the ladies with lots of junk in the trunk!

Cinny, I am with you on the progesterone shots. I have been taking mine since about 2 days before my FET and I am still on them (a month later). My skin is so dry from the alcohol swabs and when I try to scratch an itch, I feel nothing. I guess that is from all of the needles sticking in the muscle ...

I certainly appreciate the reassurance. I keep telling myself that if I can just remain calm this week, everything will be fine. But, at the same time, I am trying to prepare myself for the worst. I guess it is only natural after last time. Thanks for your happy thoughts!

Thanks Cinny. How are you feeling? I remember after my retrieval last year I felt awful. Of course, the anesthesia did not agree with me at all and I was sick all the way home and then some. Hope you are doing well.

Good morning, ladies! Yes, I am still here. Even though I have not posted in a while, I am keeping up with the board. It looks like our BFP list is shaping up nicely. :D

As for me, I have been feeling pretty good. Had a couple of queasy moments, but nothing I can't tolerate. I almost wish I could ...

Okay gang, these high HCG numbers have me worried. Everyone keeps asking if this is normal and if I had more than one embryo transferred. Should I be worried? I promise there is only one embie in there and I didn't have a trigger shot with FET. Please, somebody make me feel a little less worried.

Congratulations, Druiett! That's a fantastic number!

Well, I went for my second beta today and it was 2960! :shock: I am still in shock! My first sonogram is February 15. Until then, I am going to be a mess. Last time at my first sono was when everything turned bad. But, number were a lot lower ...

Sorry it took so long. Well...Beta was 257! That is at 9 days after FET. I am so excited because last time I was pregnant it was only 42, so I feel this is a good number. Thanks to everyone for your prayers and good wishes. I am sending buckets and buckets of sticky baby dust to all of you.

Okay ladies...I did the ultimate no no last nigt and this morning...I took 2 HPT's and both were POSITIVE! I am trying not to read too much into that since I am having my blood test tomorrow, but for now, my nerves are calm and I am at ease. I'll let you know how it turns out tomorrow. Good luck to ...

Good morning ladies! First of all, I would like to thank all of you for your prayers and well wishes. I have some good news and bad news. Bad news is, only one of our two embies survived the thaw. I guess I sort of expected that, so I really was not too upset yesterday and I think I handled things ...

Well, tomorrow is my big day. We are going to stay in a hotel tonight since it is a 3 hour drive to the hospital from our home and we have to be there at 6:30 in the morning. Not to mention that the roads are icy and it is super cold outside! Wish me luck. I am so hoping that both my little embies ...

Hi Gang! Well, I am hoping that this is my LAST DAY on Lupron and Estrace!!!!! :x I am so tired of all these headaches and bruises on my belly (yes, I have hit a blood vessel or two).

I have an appointment with my RE tomorrow for a sonogram, so I better be getting to bed as I have a 3 hour drive to ...

Thanks for the reply, Charity! I am glad to know that I am not having some freaky reaction to the Lupron and that I am not alone! Looks like my little rash has gone for the night! Until tomorrow...
