Well - I got a BFP (or a LFP). My Beta was 84. They will retest on Tuesday to make sure the number rises. I'm thinking positive thoughts that it will go up!

I'm so excited. I'm going to take it easy this weekend. I've had a really hard mental 2 weeks.

Jennifer that is WONDERFUL!! Congratulations. Definitely take it easy and soak up that amazing feeling.

Did anyone transfer day 4 embryos? If so, what day are you testing? My transfer was on the 31st and my first test is on the 9th - I am just obsessing as usual and trying to figure out what my hcg should be then to have a positive. Any ideas would give me something else to think about :wink:

Thanks!

Hi Ladies,

I don't want to put a dampener on things, but bring you back to earth.

As i have said so many times before please don't read too much into the symptoms as they are more than likely from the meds.
I'm not saying that some arn't because you are pregnant, but just wait till you get your results before you take the symptoms to heart.

I don't wish the heartache of getting your hopes up too much and then getting let down on anyone.

Good luck to you all and i pray you all get your BFP's and your dreams come true.

Jennifer that is wonderful news. Congratulations to you and DH.

Gruvybby/ Jenn, ohhh Hun, I'm sorry for your's and DH's sad news. I know what you are going through at the moment and agree that a time out is a very good thing. I wish you all the luck in the future.

You Guys are amazing!!!!

Thank you so much for all your support and kind words.

We are starting to feel a bit better, to be honest we are getting use to the bad news and beginning to think it's not mean't to be.
We have 4 frosties left so we are going to use them and then most likely say enough is enough...... There is only so much heartache we can take!!!!!

We have already decided we are going to adopt whichever way it turns out, but we have to wait till we get back to England to do that, as we don't have enough time left living over here to do all the proceedings.
We also intend on fostering.

We have got 1 year left over here after we have done our last FET, so we are going to enjoy it and travel when we want, and do whatever we want when we want to without IVF dictating when we can do things. We have been in IVF world since we got here, so we need some fun!!!!!

Thank you all again for your words of encouragement, it has mean't so much to us both.

Good luck to you all
Hugs
Rachel OXO

Any news??

Post by amy »

Susan (Gbnut) ~
I am thinking of you! How is your day going?? Still waiting for the results? I can't wait to hear your news.

Dory - Thank you for adding me to the list - I really appreciate it. I just did the 4 FET and it is also our last try also. You have a great attitude and should definitely have some fun while you are in the States. You know everyone (who gets prengant easily) loves to tell you that it will happen when you are relaxed and least expext. I love to tell them that I know way too much about me and my DH to believe that... but it is always fun to keep in the back of your head.

To all the other August Testers - enjoy the weekend and try to buy something expensive that would never fit you once you are pregnant - murphys law will just add to your chances of getting pregnant!

Susan, I'm so pleased to here you have a BFP, as it has given me some hope. I've been feeling very low today with Endo lower back pain and really trying hard to stay positive. WELL DONE!!! Fingers crossed for Monday's BT.

Susan,

I am so excited for you. That is truely wonderful. That seems like a great number too.

Linda, I wish you luck and will be thinking of you. I am getting closer to mine and imagine it gets scarier as you get closer. I will send PMA your way.

I am on my fourth day of bed rest (my Doctor requires five) and absolultly going bonkers. I think this might be worse than the injections. I am going stir crazy and sick of lying around. I test a week from tomorrow and am trying to learn to put it out of my mind. I am doing a pretty good job as I feel like the decision of it being + or - has already been decided and out of my control.

Keep me posted!
