I have a great masseuse who has been in the field for 30 years. I go every week. She regularly massages pregnant and trying to get pregnant women and has never seen a problem. She said she avoids heat on the lower back and does not massage the lower back area or abdomen. But, arms, legs, neck, upper ...

Hi all

I am also 5dp5dt (FET)! First IVF 1/08, transferred 1 blast, BFN. Last Jan 1/07- got BFP with clomid and IUI. Never grew, D+E 3/07.

This time transferred 2 blasts... HCG on 4/29 but I dont think I will last past Thursday! When I was BFP before, I got a faint + on 12dpo so Thursday will be ...

Hi all

Sad to say that I confirmed a BFN today. I was pretty suspicious already cause I had been spotting a lot for the past 6 days and I did a HPT this AM which was BFN.

Meeting with RE next tuesday to discuss FET. We have 4 frosties so hopefully one of them will be our BFP!

Good luck to ...

If you are confident that the trigger is out of your system.... and you get a + POAS, is a positive always a positive?

Here is the situation.... Thursday Day 12 I tested BFN- so I knew the trigger was gone. Saturday, BFP. Sunday BFN (with a different brand of test). Can I assume the Sat test is ...

I think its all what your body is used to. If you are in shape and an athlete I think most drs will say non concussive exercise is ok (they told me it was ok to do everything except run for the first few weeks after ET). I took it easy the first few days cause my folks were in town and ...

I did a 5 day transfer with 1 blastocyst. I am still spotting - brown and more red blood but I did another POAS today, 9 days post 5dt and I think there might be a second positive line! very faint but maybe.... I am not getting my hopes up too much cause there is still a lot of bleeding but ...

Aims,

I had the same exact signs yesterday - splitting headache all day and spotting (like kind of brownish) sorry TMI. The headache is usually AF coming but pretty wimpy spotting the past 4 days. Maybe progesterone injections are stopping the full arrival of AF for me? I am pretty sure I am BFN ...

Well, I am sad to report that I think I am continuing the BFN streak. I POAS this morning - negative. So at least the trigger is gone at day 12 for me. Last time I was preg I tested positive at Day 12 (faint line) but did not have these AF type cramps or any spotting. My RE tests on Day 16 so I have ...

Things are not feeling that great for me.... day 6 post 5dt. I usually start AF spotting around now and had some today along with the cramps I have had on and off since ET. I know these signs can still mean BFP but I am feeling like its more AF like than BFP like. I was BFP last Jan 07 (before ...

2 WWers:

I read that trigger was out after 10 days if you used 5000U, 14days if you used 10,000U.

Symptoms so far are lower abdominal cramps/pulling (mild), some sharp pains on the right side, slightly larger BBs, thats about it.

I am not testing til Friday. My beta is Monday (but only cause ...

Sage, Aims, Kerpupples

how are you doing with the 2WW? I think we are all testing around the same day since we did ET the same day. I don't think I will be able to wait past the 23rd without doing a HPT. I am going to try but failure is lurking. They say if you had a trigger of 10,000U it will take ...

Has anyone had the guts to do the PIO themselves? My DH does it right now and its ok but not sure I could do it myself. There is a Youtube video that shows a woman giving herself the PIO injection.

My RE told me that people may have a reaction to the oil that the progesterone is in. If you get it in the fatty tissue at all, it can set up a reaction like a big lump or red sore area.

There are a lot of suggestions on this board- some people say heat before, heat after, some say ice before ...

My RE said 24 hours bed rest and that no he has no evidence with his patients that any longer makes a difference. So, my 24 hours is up now and I am going for a gentle walk with the poor dog that has been going crazy being cooped up.

I am going to take it easy but not laterally recumbant ...

Rio

My RE says the beta will be 2/25 (poop) instead of 2/23. They have changed their testing protocol based on some false negs and pos. So its now a LONGER wait! ugh. Can you change my 2ww date? Thanks!

I am sick of bed rest. It sounded great for the first 3 hours and now its boring and I have ...
