Hi Ladies- Although i'm due on November 1st, i decided to jump in on your October postings...hope that's ok. I'm 17 weeks, 1 day and my husband and i had intercourse this morning for the first time in 2-3 weeks. (was good :D ) About 1 hr. later, i had a bowel mvmt and had a couple drops of pink ...

Iriecricket- glad to hear that your hematoma is getting thin and the doctor is positive. The CVS didn't cause any spotting, and we found out yesterday, it is a GIRL! :o Both dh & i were thinking boy. But most importantly, she has the right # of chromosomes (46) and they look good. Lola- based on ...

Firstly, Lola, thanks for the list (ps- my due date is Nov 1)
Iriecricket- let us know how things go tommorrow
br8888- yes, welcome- so cool you have a daughter from IVF
Hi jen8675309, doodah66 and anyone i forgot...

My husband and I did the CVS genetic test today. They took cells from the ...

iriecricket- I am praying for you and the baby! You sound so strong...I am proud of you. We all know by this time that there are many things outside of our control on this roller coaster and all I can send is my love and hugs. Bed rest indeed.

Hi ladies-

I had an OBGYN appt last week (forgot to post) and it was darn near uneventful! They told me to weigh myself and pee on a stick and write down the results for glucose, etc. They said I'd be doing this every time i came in. After a 30 minute wait in the examining room, the doctor came in ...

Hi there- New to this side :)

Hoping to tag along with you girls. Had my ultrasound yesterday...9w, 3d. Looks good...baby put his hand like things in his mouth and waved the little fins around...

Tired? HELL YES! Never stay up past 8:30 either Kathleen. Love the Klondike & ice cream idea-- sweet ...

I feel like i'm such a whiner, but my ass is itching so bad and i now have big inch sized welts in the areas where the injections go. anyone else have this? should i call my RE?

Hi there...thought i'd come over to this side...our U/S is Monday to hopefully see the heartbeat of a singleton!!!

Is anyone experiencing major bloating, burping & indigetstion? I heard it isn't the most common pregnancy side effect (like naseua) but it sure is making me ill.

any recommendations ...

Iccin- Keep up the hope! I had 3 negative HPTs (up to 12 DPT) and got a blood test with POSITIVE results last Monday! Beta went from 91 to 300 on Wednesday.

I was in total shock to get the +++ news, so don't be suprised if the same happens to you! Best wishes and don't beat yourself up.

My gut tells me you tested too early...based on what i read on another post...you have to wait until 11 dpt for HcG to show up on HPT...

GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Jen- I'm trying to figure out the same thing.

My details:
FET (2 day 3 embryos) on 2/11
Took HPT dpt 10,11 & 12-- all negative

I'm hoping for the best but expecting the worst for my blood test tomorrrow. When is your blood test? was your cycle frozen or reg?

Good Luck Kate! I am at the end of my 2ww. 2 frozen guys transfereed. I did take a HPT on 11 dpt and 12 dpt and they were negative. I get a blood test tomorrow,, i don't have high hopes. In fact, it would be a miracle :)

I do think that this being my second time, i am glad i did the HPT as it ...

FET 2/11
Day 3- 2 embyros
today is 2/23
HPT this am said NO, yesterday NO
I'm not preg am i?

please see below advice???

Have you been using a heating pad after the shots? It is the only thing I found that helps me, in fact, it makes a huge difference. My hips are a little sore, but nothing like what they were on previous cycles. I put the heating pad on and massage the area (firmly, with the heel of my hand) and do ...
