Just had my retrieval yesterday. Had 26 eggs, found out today that 23 matured but only 8 fertilized. Have the transfer scheduled for Saturday. Am nervous that its not going to work! Don't know if I can do it again!

[Nance]

Hi Ladies!

Jeck - Thank you for letting us know about photobucket it is so nice to be able to put a face to the name. It always amazes me that now a days it is possible to speak with people all over the world via the computer. It makes you realize that you are not alone. It is a wonderful feeling.

Mills0923 - I think that 8 fertilized is a wonderful number. Congratulations!! How are you feeling today? All my prayers are with you that this will be your time and that you will not have to do this again. Just hang in there. I know how hard it is but just take it one step at a time and have faith that it would work. I often think that I can not do this anymore but I think we just feel that way now because of all the stress we are going through and all those crazy hormones we have running through us. I believe that we are all much stronger than we think we are. Good Luck!

Rachael - I am sorry that you are feeling so down and I am praying that your one will go the distance and that your dreams will come true. Good luck today and let us know how it goes.

JenJ, Charity, Rparsons - Looks like we are all pretty close. I just got the call from my RE. I have my final scan on Saturday so hopefully I will be good to go on Tuesday.

I can't beleive how many of us are having our ER/ET next week. Good Luck to everyone! This board has grown so much in the last month. Hopefully we will all be celebrating together in a few weeks.


Take care,
Nance

[rparsons]

nance, JenJ and Charity I should be really close. I think it's going to be around Tues but not sure.

I go in for scan tommorrow morning and will know more

[lori]

Cowgirl - how are you holding up in 2ww? I am starting to get nervous and anxious about it. Trying to keep busy so I don't think about it. We have just 5 days left to go! Thinking of you and hoping you've come to peace about your decision to transfer 2.

ooo i love photo bucket...im on there with my clothes on this time.... your right it is good to put a face to the name...we have some hot mommies out there too....

love to all Aunty

[cowgirlclass]

Lori, I am doing well. How about you? I am getting excited. I cheated this morning and did a HPT and had a faint + but I am trying not to get too excited yet. I plan to do another one tomorrow AM and see if gets any darker. The wait was killing me I figured I had nothing to loose. I was having symptoms so I was hoping HCG was high enough to test.

Are you having any symptoms yet? Don't worry if you aren't, many many people don't. But I get morning sickness real bad so when I was getting nautious I knew it was a symptom. I am not going to get real excited till after the quantative HCG. I want to hear that the leaves show a viable pregnancy. But I keep praying

[lori]

Cowgirlclass, That is exciting! Hopefully the line will be darker tomorrow! I have been pg twice before and i don't get too many symptoms, no morning sickness. So, I can't really tell yet. The only symptoms I get could be from the prog shots. I decided not to do a HPT (I promised DH that I wouldn't do one!), so I will just have to wait it out. I feel optimistic about it since I had 4 good eggs transferred, but I'm scared to get my hopes up. I'm just counting down the days until I know for sure. Hang in there and let me know what you see tomorrow - I'll live vicariously through your HPT!

[cmoscar]

All

I am a wreck. I couldn't stop crying at the ET. My heart is breaking and I am trying hard to keep the peices together. They put one two cell back in this afternoon. My PT is going to be on 10/16. I am trying so hard not to feel defeated. I am asking for all your prayers tonight and over the next few nights. This is the only try we get at this, so I am praying to God that this embryo is a strong one. Right now, everytime I got to the bathroom, I worry I am wiping my embie away. I am a nervous wreck.

Thank you all for the supportive comments. I am now on my 4 days of bedrest. I had no time to prepare and now I am bored. Keep talking so I have something to read.

[jenn]

Racheal...You are in my thoughts and prayers. Try to rest and take it easy just let that embie sink right in! Hopefully it will realize it is back where it belongs and it will settle in for 9 months!!

ER is tomorrow. You will all be awake and thinking of me at 5:30 in the morning right??! hee hee..

I better get to bed. Goodnight everyone...

[leap.of.faith]

Racheal, hang in there, I have a feeling about your embie! I am hoping and praying for you and wishing you lots and lots of good luck!!

I am just waiting for a phone call in the morning. I don't know anything yet about my embies.

[BecP]

Morning Ladies

Rachael you hang on in there.

Good luck ladies to all of you on your ER's this week and next. It sure is a happening week, which means in 2 weeks time it's also going to be a happy week full of BFPs!!!

I go in today for my last scan to see how many big follies we have, then it's HCG on Saturday night and ER on Monday.

BABY DUST AND LOTS OF GORGEOUS EMBIES TO US ALL!!!

[Haylie]

Nance- am so glad you have lots of follies, am sure you will have lots of lovely egss from them. Good luck with the scan tomorrow.

Jenn - am thinking of you and wishing you lots of wonderful eggs, let us know how you get on.

JenJ - good luck with the scan

Racheal - you are in my thoughts and prayers, I am praying you have a little fighter in there.

Bec - good luck with the scan today

Lori - I'm also getting very anxious and uptight. I'm also determined not to do a HPT. I couldn't cope if it was neg and I know it would really bring me down. I have tried to be so positive but am really struggling and am just so scared it's not going to work. I don't think I could cope going through all this again. the weather is really awful here, windy and raining but it just about suits my mood. Sorry to be a downer!

Gina - how are you doing?

Hx

[cowgirlclass]

Racheal you are in my thoughts and prayers. Sweet girl it only takes one and maybe God has a plan for you and you were meant to only have one baby. Please try to relax and enjoy what you body is going to do. I so wish I taped the discovery channel. I watched a program on IVF and there was a lady that sounded so like you! She was on her second round of IVF and she talked about her first one going so smoothly and she could just not understand when her PT came back negative. She said during her second round everything went wrong, the told her not to expect too much but they had went through so much of the progress already they too tranfered her emby back early and she was so exstatic to get that BFP!!!! Please not to tear your self up inside. It is in God's hands now.

<<<<<<<<<<Big Hugs>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Lorri- it was positive again this morning and slightly darker I am going to break down and go get some maternity panties this morning because mine are uncomfortable with all the bloat. I was going to wait till after Thursday but I am going to take a leap of faith and do it today since I have such a long weekend. The do make maternity panties don't they? It has been so long and I really don't remember ever having maternity panties.

Everybody have a good weekend and good luck to us all!!!!!

[Nance]

Good Morning Ladies-

Rachael - I am so sorry you are having such a hard time. But just think of how strong that embryo had to be to make it to transfer. It sounds like a fighter to me. Please just try to take it easy and have faith. I will pray for you.

Cowgirl - I can't imagine how excited you must be. It certainly sounds like a good sign to me. I'm sure there must be maternity panties. You should do anything you can to be as comfortable as you can. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Bec - Let us know how your scan goes. Good Luck!!

Leap.of.faith - Let us know as soon as you hear about your embryos.

Jenn - Good luck at your retrieval! Let us know how you do.

Everyone - I hope everyone is doing well. Keep us updated on your progress.

All my best,
Nance
