Thanks Amy,

I started bleeding Sunday night and had to take off work yesterday. My flow was so heavy and my back and pelvic hurt sooooo bad. I am much better today though. Best of luck to you too.

Hi Amy,

Thanks for getting back with me. They have me on the progesterin patches that don't stick very well I might add. I don't know. This is so nerve wracking. I am having a hard time functioning at work. This really stinks.

Cyndi,

Did the HPT show anything when you did them the last time? I want to do them, but am to afraid to be dissappointed. I don't know. My mind is crazy this days. You wait for these two weeks for that call, but then on the other hand I'm not going to want to answer that phone when it rings on ...

Cathy,

Thanks for the prayers. We need all we can get. I felt okay about the retrieval and embryo. I was told that they would probably only get 3 good ones out. They ended up getting 7. Out of those 7, 4 were mature enough and out of those 4, 3 took fertilization. So we put two back and we were ...

:D Thanks for all the aweosme feedback. At least I don't feel so stupid now. It's hard going through something like this not knowing anyone around me that has gone through this before. My first week of waiting is over. I went to the doctors on Friday to get some bloodwork and US to make sure I didn ...
