Thank you for the best wishes. I send them right back at ya.
I will try to avoid the HPT but can make no guarantees.

This is my second attempt and it took me 3 years to get here. I have taken the " speak as it will happen" approach and am expecting a BFP. Of course, I am a sensible person and know that it is not completely in my hands but I remain hopeful.
You are ready when YOU are ready...
Good luck to you and ...

not quite new but it has been awhile

Hi there,
I had IVF 3 years ago which resulted in a chemical pregnancy. I spent a few years being bummed and am now just 5 days away from FET. I hope my little embryos have enjoyed their 3 year cold storage and are ready to work their magic for me.

I have asked my doctor to transfer 3 due to an ...

Thanks for the fingers crossed. I've had mine crossed since Saturday. I think im getting a wee bit of a cramp.
I had 6 frozen. I hope I dont need them but if I do, at least that would be more affordable if I had too.
As far as how I am spending my time these next two weeks, well, I have a scheduled ...
