Hey everyone!
Hope your weekend was great! Mine involved too much yard work and now I am sooooooo sore! And of course my butt doesn't feel good from the progesterone shots! Last time the Dr. marked an area where my DH could give them to me but now we had no mark. But all I had to do was press where I thought it would go and I could still feel it...was still sore! From November! They leave a mark that's for sure!
Well it's only a 3 day work week for me...yea!! I hope they don't go by extra slow!!

PMA to all!!

:)

Hey Allison - no, I haven't taken the pee test yet. My little sister is driving me crazy trying to get me to. I am so afraid of getting a false result. If I do take one - it will be Weds. or Thurs morning. I have my test Thurs so I figure an HPT might help prepare me for the result one way or the other. I remember you saying you wish you had taken one last time. So when do they thaw your embies out? How many are you having put back?

I found out today that I had no embies to freeze :cry: Still - they told me, again, that the 2 I had put back were excellent blasties so I am staying positive.

The cramping has gone away for the most part. My breast were very sore yesterday - going up and down the steps HURT. Today, nothing. I know better than to read into it but it's really hard not to.

sigh.... The 2ww is the hardest part of all this. I will take the injections over this any day!

Hello,

I had my scan on Sat. Cycle day 6 then saw 14 all at 7's but one at 9. The Dr said that was really good. I have been so crampy the past few days and with the worst of all headaches every night. I go back on Wed for another scan.

Question does anyone know how much the follies grow each day?

Hi everyone! Thanks for all the well wishes and baby dust! I'm pleased to report a... BFP!!! I still can't believe it! :)

Lisa, Jen, Danielle, hang in there! *hugs*

Melissa, I was seeing my doc every other day, and it seemed to me that the follies grew at abt 1-3mm at each scan. But i'm not sure that's the case for everyone... in any case, stay positive! :)

Thanks again all for your support, you guys are great! *hugs* and baby dust to all!

Rouge - CONGRATS!!! That is so awesome! You deserve it! I bet it was so awesome to get that +ive news after so many -ives. Take care and let us know how the first scan goes!

Thanks Lucy for the PMA! You are so sweet!

Jen and Lucy - not too long now! I hope this week goes by super fast for you and ends with a BFP!!

Jackie - I am so glad I have a FET cycle buddy! Hopefully we can compare notes! Have you started prog. shots yet? How many are you having put back? Are you stressing as much as I am over the thaw?? I pray we both have great thaws and get our BFPs!!!


Melissa - your follies sound good. They were having me come in every day b/c my E2 was pretty high and they wanted to monitor me everyday. If I can remember mine grew 1-2mm each day - think it took around 10 days of stimming before they had enough that were over 18mm. And they ended up getting 19 of them! Guess there were some hiding!!

I'm adding back the smileys to the list!
Have a great day my cycle buddies! I really am glad I have "met" all of you!! :D

Well I had my scan today. I can't believe it. I had 7 follies on each side, measuring 7mm on Sat. Now I have 30 follies total all measuring 12 and 13mm. The Dr told me today that he estimates ET on Monday. And we are doing a 3 day transfer. DH had a date with the "Red Room" last week and they told us everything looks great from that point of view. The cramps are getting worse but the Dr. says everything still looks good.

Rouge - That is such great news. I am so Happy for you.

Melissa - wow things are looking great for you :) You must have gotten lots of follie dust!!

Don't let the cramps get to you - I have had them almost every day since my ER. It's annoying, I know, but part of this whole thing.

Allison I think I posted to you somewhere else today - good luck with FET tomorrow! I am sending sticky baby dust your way!
