Mental/Emotional Symptoms Anyone>>??

I know everyone talks about the physical symptoms during the 2ww....the sore bbs, fatigue, cramping, etc. But today is day 10 after my ET and I am convinced it didn't work because not only don't I have any physical symptoms, but I feel that confused, sad, cranky PMS feeling I get right before my ...

Anyone Need LUPRON??

Hey all!
After getting a BFN a couple of weeks ago, my doctor put me on a monthly LUPRON shot for 6 months or so to help control the endometriosis I have. Unfortunately, after taking my 1st shot, my elbows broke out in a, itchy rash, which leads me to believe I'm allergic to it. So I have two 3.75mg ...

Hey everyone!
I started this board what feels like a very long time ago and am glad to see it's still up and running. I got my BFN Aug 20 and haven't been able to get back on. My husband was accidentally shot the day after my bad news (he's ok), so it was a CRAZY couple of weeks for me, but things ...

Thanks so much, Meggs. The reality of it all really sucks and you can't help but think of how unfair it is. I have a lot of good things in my life right now to get back to, so I'm focusing on all of that and just enjoyed my first cup of caffinated tea this morning in 6 weeks. I don't think anything ...

Thanks so much Kbat. Unfortunately I got the bad news today with very little understanding of what went wrong. My doctors are both on vacation and I don't know what to do next. I don't think I have it in me to do this again right away. I'm 34 and have some time, but I can't dilly dally forever ...

Hi everyone,
I'm sorry to say that I can't chime in on all the positive results this week. I got my BFN today and am having a really tough time handling it. I know it's gonna take some time and I'm doing my best to get through it. My mind is racing as to what to do next, but I think I may give it a ...

Jenni_K, i would kill to have that spotting you mention. That seems to always be a positive sign, so don't worry about it. I have yet to hear of anyone with it who isn't pregnant. I didn't have it and I'm waiting for my results today, but I don't think I'd be as nervous if I had. SO hang in there ...

Hi everyone! I just came back from my blood test and have to wait until after 1 today to call them for the results. I never thought I"d feel so blah on this day. I definitely don't have any pregnancy symptoms or even and period symptoms for that matter. I'm really nervous, it's raining, and my ...

Hey girls! I"m going in tomorrow for my test and managed to stay away from the HPT this whole time. It was more out of fear than patience, however. Aliann, that is great news and I have yet to hear of it reading positive when it isn't. It's read negative when it's positive, but never the other way ...

Hot flashes rule! I'll take any sign I can get. Ya know, I was thinking....I definitely had symptoms, but just not long lasting. Different ones came and went, so maybe that's how it's supposed to be for now. I can't even tell you how reassuring it has been to know that not everyone has the typical ...

Vlada, thanks for that pick-me-up. For some reason, I really needed it today. I"m 3 days away from the test and still no big signs, unless I"m looking past the small ones. I know logically that I could be pregnant and have no symptoms, but emotionally it's hard to accept. If his all works, I will ...

Hi!
Has anyone read the book, Waiting for Daisy? I just finished it a couple of weeks ago and it's written by a woman who went through all measures to have her one and only child. It was interesting and inspirational, so if anyone's looking for an easy read while on bedrest or whatever, pick it up ...
