THank you so much ladies. It means so much to me. The nurse wouldn't tell me the possibility of it being twins. I need to go back for another beta on Tuesday and hopefully it will continue to rise. I can only have a scan once the beta goes over 1000 and I reach 7 weeks. I'm so excited thought ...

Hi ladies,

I have great news. I got a BFP!!! My HCG was a 120 and I have to go back on Tuesday for another set of blood work to make sure it keeps going up. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that. I wanted to thank all of you for your kind words and wonderful support. Lots - You will be next.

lots of baby wishes - Happy to hear that you are doing well. My first blood work is on Friday am. So we'll see, either it will be a really good weekend or a bad one. I am also praying for twins :) I hope the time goes by quickly. How are you feeling? Do you have any symptoms? I have none.

Hi Cheekskuss - I think that if you want to speak to Dr. Lobo directly that you should just make an appointment with him to discuss your options. I see Dr. Lobo too but I only see him when I actually have an appointment. During my 2 cycles I never saw him during the morning monitoring or the ...

Hi Michelle,

Thanks for your response. It made me happy. We put back two because I'm 28 and the doctor's thought I would have a good chance with two. Yes, I'm very lucky that I had frozen embryos but my fresh cycle was cancelled due to OHSS and that was not fun. I know Friday is right around the ...

Hey Jennifer,

Congratulations on your twins. How are you doing? I'm in the 2ww of my FET and I don't know what to do with myself. Do you mind me asking how many embryos you transferred? I go for my first bw on Friday and am super nervous. I'm also at CWRC. Can you tell me what the protocol is after ...

Hopefully mine will work out even though i was not required for bed rest. i was told to take it easy at the gym but I'm not going to go. I do hope this works but if it doesn't maybe next time I will try bed-rest. Oh 7 more days until blood-work. What am i going to do with myself.
