Em,

I too have been feeling very strange lately. I told my husband it's like I am about to get a cold but never do. My whole body feels tingly, weak at times. I just have to lay down b/c otherwise I feel like I will fall over. And then the next day I am fine! Very weird! I didn't feel this way last time so I cant imagine it is the progesterone. Hopefully it means a good sign for us. My boobs are not as sore now which kinda worried me but every now and then they will just ache now. So I am kinda glad when I get those aches, I don't like when I feel nothing! And mine are so big they about to pop outta my bra! DH loves it! HAHA

BecP - I too kinda start thinking ok this hasn't worked - how am I going to get all the way to Saturday! But you just have to stay positive, you just have to.
Here's to this week flying by!!

OK . . . I cheated and did a HPT . . . and it was positive! It has been 15 1/2 days since my HCG shot-is it likely to still get a positive from that? I know I shouldn't have done it but I just couldn't help it! I guess I'll find out for sure tomorrow but I am a little encouraged. I was expecting a negative or very faint positive from the HCG shot but it was a clear positive-didn't have to hold it to the light or anything. I am trying not to get too hopeful . . .

I am also worried because I am still cramping-in fact I was sure that AF was on her way yesterday but she hasn't showed yet. I'm down to the last hours and they are KILLING ME!

Jen J- How exciting! Looks like your be celebrating tomorrow A positive is a positive! Guess your having a blood test tomorrow, but remember some clinics (mine included) go solely on HPT so pretty sure this is your result.

Alison/gill and others on 2ww- hope things are ok and you can hold out a bit longer without going too crazy!

Take care all

Thanks Casy . . . I am excited but am trying to keep level headed until tomorrow. I've never had a + test before, in 5.5 yrs! That alone is exciting; didn't think I'd ever see two lines! Thanks for the encouragement!

Oh Jen J hope everything works out ok for you. Looking forward to logging on tomorrow and reading about your bfp.

Well i have been stimming for a couple of days now, i hate it. I am such a wimp when it comes to the needles and my dh hates giving me them.
Am already so worried about the 2ww. I hate the feeling that the dreaded AF is on the way, its torture.

Good luck girls, i want to see a big list of bfp this month

Love Jen x

JenJ--WOOHOO!! I did an HPT on saturday before my Beta on monday and had a very faint second line. It was 3 am and I got hubby up and I turne on all the lights and blinded him and couldn't even focus for a few minutes!! I hope you have a wonderful next 8 months!!! Good Luck and let us know your numbers tomorrow!!!

Jill--Welcome to the 2ww!!! I hope it flys by for you!!! I am sorry you didn't have any to freeze but hopefully you 2 little strong ones and it will work out!!

Jen1d--I know the needles suck but each time you give yourself a shot of stims you are helping you little ones grow!!! Hope it gets better!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!

Jen J - Congrats! Once a positive always a positive! I know tomorrow will bring you good news! I am so very happy for you!

Good luck to all of you in your 2ww or stimming. This board has been so very helpful during our very difficult cycle. We were smiled upon and given a wonderful gift of a pregnancy and I wish it upon all of you.

Jen J · Post by **Jen J** » Mon Oct 23, 2006 3:00 am

Jen, Jeck & Racheal-Thank you so much for the good wishes! I am so nervous about tomorrow; I want what I saw to be true! You guys, and so many others, have been so encouraging and supportive throughout this whole ordeal. I appreciate it so much!

Jen-I feel for you with the stims. I HATE needles too and after a few days of 3 injections/day I had had enough! By the end I was SO ready to be done with the stims. You're doing great, hang in there and you'll be done soon and on your way to a BFP!

jstrandlund-I am sorry that the numbers weren't as good as you hoped but having 2 good embryos transferred is not bad. There have been amazing success stories, right on this thread in fact. I'm sorry you don't have any frosties but maybe you won't need them!

Good luck to everyone in the 2ww! I can't wait till tomorrow!!

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR REPLYS. I AM GOING TO TAKE A BREAK FROM ALL OF THIS. IT HAS CONSUMED 1 YEAR OF MY LIFE AND I NEED TO TAKE SOME TIME FOR ME NOW. SOME THINGS ARE HARD FOR US TO UNDERSTAND BUT MY MOM TELLS ME EVENTUALLY IT WILL ALL MAKE SENSE IN THE END. MAYBE ME AND THE DH HAVE ANOTHER PURPOSE IN LIFE. WE WILL HAVE TO SEE. WE HAVE 3 FROZEN EMBIES SO WE WILL AT LEAST TRY ONE MORE TIME, MAYBE NEXT YEAR.
I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST OF LUCK AND HOPE YOU ALL HAVE BEAUTIFUL HAPPY HEALTHY BABIES THIS JUNE/JULY! I WILL CHECK IN TO SEE HOW THINGS ARE GOING. TAKE CARE! I APPRECIATE ALL YOU HAVE SAID TO ME DURING THESE PAST MONTHS! ANNA

Hi Everyone,

Sorry I have not written in a few days but I am trying to keep as busy as possible on my 2ww for my sanity. I am trying to stay positive but it is very hard. I have no symptoms other than sore boobs so I am afraid that it did not work. I will not test until either the 30th or 31st so I have a week left. AAAHHH!! It is driving me crazy. I do not want to take a HPT because at least at this point I have hope if I take one and it is negative I think I wil be devistated. I'm trying to keep my faith up but it is hard.

Anna - We will miss you. Please check in once in a while. I wish you the best.

Jstrandlund - Having two embryos back is good. I know you are disapointed that you had none to freeze but maybe that is Gods way of saying this is going to work for you. Stay strong and try to stay positive.

Jen J - Congratulations! I am so happy for you. You must be so excited. I pray that you have an easy preganancy. Enjoy every second of it.

Everyone who is testing this week - Good Luck my prayers are with you.

To everyone with those wonderful BFPs how are you all feeling?

Take care everyone.

All my best.
Nance

jstrandlund - Keep the faith! You have twice the chances that I did! You keep your chin up! I know I lost my faith during my 2ww, but you can do it. I know it is really hard (ecspecially as you are injecting yourself with those horrible POI shots, and yes I did it to myself until I broke down. Then DH took over and kept us going for the last 4-5 shots!). If you need inspiration, there is my story burried in this thread and one from a Sept girl named zirly. Sometimes, the odd man out wins the race. I know my RE told us on our follow-up that he did not expect us to get pregnant. We beat the odds and so can you!

Hey Anna,

I understand needing time away. I was so attached to my embies on my 1st IVF -it took me months to get over my BFN. I just knew it was going to work! But time away from this roller coaster is just what I needed to try again! And yes I know one day you will look back on this and see that it was for a reason. My mom had 3 miscarriages before she had me and she always says she can never imagine her first born being anyone but me! So somehow it all works out in the end...

Alright 2wwers...let's see some more BFP's this week! JenJ has started us off right! I am too nervous/scared/superstitious to test early! I'll just wait til Saturday!! My weekend flew by so here's to this week doing the same!

Ophee · Post by **Ophee** » Mon Oct 23, 2006 2:54 pm

Jen J, congratulation!!! You have a good start for this week. Waiting anxiously for you official BFP today!!

Jill, welcome to the 2ww ... it's my last day for the 2ww ... can't wait for tomorrow.

Yes ... I cheated too ... as Jen J mentioned, it's already 15.5 days since I had my HCG shot, normally, it should be fading off. My bloating from the OHSS caused by the HCG shot was gone last Wednesday ... but coming back really quick during the weekend ... and the bloating is even worse than before. This could be a good sign as HCG will be produced around 3 days after the successful implantation ... and I have had problem eating, felt like throwing up whenever I eat (which could be a symptom too ... I had this with my first child). So, I went out to the pharmacy this afternoon and get myself a HPT. I used it ... and it's a clear positive! Wow! It's the first time a get a positive with a HPT ... really hope that it's a positive from tomorrow beta and I will be joining all you BFPers soon. Keeping all my fingers and toes crossed ...

Best wishes to all!!

congrats on your Positives. Let's hope they stay that way. I havn't checked the board too much trying to keep myself busy. I went this morning for my test and right now I'm waiting for the call. It should be any minute.

I just don't know. I've been cramping and spotting a little so we'll just have to see. I did this too with my first IVF that was successful so I am trying to be positive.

i'll let you guys know. Please post as soon as you get the official word!!!

October buddies??
