Sam,
CONGRATULATIONS!
I am tickled pink to see you tickled pink (or blue

). Good luck with your pregnancy, the two of you deserve this! I hope to be as fortunate in a few short weeks.

I am done! We went in this morning for the transfer and put back 2, a 7 and an 8. How cool to watch them be placed in my womb...
Laying around on the couch with the laptop. DH gone to drop DD off at a party and pick up movies and Tylenol for me. Still having a bit of discomfort from the EC. By the way, I can't stop peeing. It's driving me nuts!

Dione--

How exciting. It is almost to the end. I loved the feeling of them putting it in and felt protective from the first moment. Relax, take it easy, and stay away from HPT. I will be thinking of you and will keep you company during the LONG two weeks. My two weeks officially ends tomorrow, wish me luck!!!

Posted: Sun Aug 13, 2006 9:06 pm Post subject: IT's official BFP

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IT is official. I am pregnant. I am so excited. My numbers went from 46 to 226 so it is a sure thing!!! YEah.

I will tell you, I never thought beyound this moment. I thought it would jinx me. Now I am like "oh my god, what do I do?" I have not read a thing as I did not want to emotionally go there. All of a sudden I am freaked out (In SUCH A GOOD WAY) that something is growing inside of me. I need to figure out what to eat and all of that kinda stuff.

I can't beleive this. This feeling is soooo great that I want/wish it to happen to all of you. I will be staying on so I know what happens to each of you as I think about you everyday and every step of your way.

Much love and happiness

Sam

Dione--your explanation of how you felt after the ET was simply beautiful! All the best to you!

MBAchick · Post by **MBAchick** » Mon Aug 14, 2006 2:15 am

Sam, sounds great. Good sticking to ya. Have a happy and healthy nine months!!! I know we haven't really got to know each other but I still am very excited for you.

Dione, Good sticking to you too. I am sure you will keep us all posted. Hold off on the hpt until the right time. Enjoy and relax over the next 2 weeks. Keep yourself occupied and enjoy your DH.

As for me I have been lurking about but not posting. I apologise for not getting all the personals done in this note. I have been keeping up with the reading over the last several weeks.

So I started my Lupron after vacation at the end of July. Injections in the tummy are a breeze. Ice the area and have a tea. Great combination. I started my stims. Tonight was the second day. I really hate the Puregon Pen (Follistim in the US). I find it large and ackward. I would much rather draw it up out of a vial with a single use syringe. Anway, I go in on Tuesday am for my first U/S and B/W since being on stims. Hopefully things are progressing nicely.

I'll chime in again then. Good luck to all I missed.

Good growing, good baby dancing, good sticking!

MBA--how was your 1st ultrasound today?

I hope all of you are progressing nicely in this process! Stay positive!

MBAchick · Post by **MBAchick** » Wed Aug 16, 2006 3:58 am

Well today was my first ultrasound. There where 30+ follicles on each side. Now when I was there on CD 3 I had 10+ on each side before starting the stims (I have polycystic ovaries so there are always 8 or so on each). My feet are so swollen and have been since Saturday. I think it is fluid retention. But it started before the stims. Anyway my RE called this afternoon to lower my stims from 200IU to 75. Has this happened to anyone? He said my estrogen was a little high. I almost didn't want to listen and continue with 200IU. But I guess he knows what he is doing.
I go back on Thursday morning. Hopefully the follies that are progressing having really grown and we'll have a better idea of how many I may end up with. I don;t want to cancel either.

Good growing, good baby dancing, good sticking

Hi everyone

Well, Sam i bet u r still soooo over the moon and soooo excited, i wouldn't know wot to do with myself!!

MBAchick, i really would say take the doc's advice, try not 2 worry - i know its hard but hopefully they know wot they're doin!! - I'm keepin my fingers crossed 4 a BFP!!!

I hope evcery1 else is doin ok. I went for my DR ultrasound today and... I have officially DR - I almost didn't believe her, I didn't get any hot flushes or night sweats so i was convinced it wasn't working!!

I start Puregon 2moro so now my next worry will b if i produce any follies. I'm such a worrier - the nurse even said so today!... I'm hopin i don't feel too ill with the Puregon as i've been ok DR- just tired.

Well, enough boring you all about me, hows every1 else?

Speak soon
LOL Vickie x x x

MBA-- I would definately follow Dr's orders. Please trust that they know what they are doing and it is in your best interest! Keep us posted.

Vickie--Please stop worrying. It can't possibly help you during this time. I beleive Puregon is Follstim in the US--it wasn't that bad at all. Relax. I know we can all be a bit nervous and anxious at this time, but really try to take it easy!

I'm waiting to hear from my nurse today to tell me if I have to take the trigger shot of full strength HCG. Anyone have any feedback on what I can expect from that particular injection?

Hope all is well with all of you ladies! Take good care!
