hi girls,

I'm trying not to get too excited but I caved this morning and did a HPT....and got a faint positive. I retested this afternoon with a different brand and got the same result! I'm 10 days post transfer, so surely this is right?

Ems - that is so exciting - have everything crossed for you!

Well it' still waiting waiting waiting for me. Had my post polyp op apppmt today and he said pretty happy with things so far - the cavity is still a bit out of shape but said he would expect that ....so another check up in 2 weeks and then hopefully I'll know something more concrete. He always said 4 to 6 weeks after before we can do FET so still on track - but god it seems like an eternity.

Hi Angie,

I'm glad your doctor is happy. I know the waiting is frustrating! I can't wait for my blood test on tuesday....I did another test this morning with yet another brand and got a strong positive test. I am in shock as its a lot to get my head around. I can't wait to find out how many I have....twins?

Hope you are well,

Em

It is so bloody hot here! I took the dog for a walk and got burnt. Its weird though, like a dry heat....we're used to humid.

OOOH. You're going to the races! I would love to go. I have A reserve tickets for U2 on Melbourne Cup day. We have decided to stay in a motel walking distance to the venue so we didn't have to drive....now I'm pregnant, drinking won't be an issue. Oh well.

Em,

FANTASTIC!!!!! Well done my Brisbane buddy..so pleased for you..Can't wait to hear your HCG numbers..I think there's a correlation between multiple births and high numbers??..Make sure you post and let us know so we can follow your progress.

Tiger, how are you matey? All OK here, I'm pretty tired, sleep deprivation is a form of torture I reckon, but then I'm thinking Ellie will grow out of it soon :shock:

Take care all

Thanks Jovigal,

You will do brilliantly with your first IVF! I am wondering why we wasted so much time doing the IUI's in the first place!

Keep me posted on how you are doing..

Hey Em,
SOOOOOO happy for you!!!.Your numbers sound fab to me..I think the key is the rate at which the numbers increase over the next weeks??, but then I know my specialist considered anything above 50 a positive, and anything above 200 a strong positive, so sounds like you're home and hosed!! Well done Em!!

Take care and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy...now you just need to decide where you'll have your baby and who your obstetrician will be (any thoughts??)

Hi Em
Just popping on to see how you went with your cycle and obviously you've done well CONGRATULATIONS my first HCG levels were 470 and was pregnant with twins so heres maybe looking at 2 bundles of joy for you a Dh Well done.

Hi Tiger and Bel,
Hope your both well and keeping busy Jacobs doing well he's learnt a new trick today I had placed him in his cot for his nap at the end of the cot of course but when I came into check on him he sort of scooted up the cot cheeky monkey I can see he's going to be handleful . I think he's going to be one of those kids that you find it hard to discipline when he throws you one of those cheeky smiles he's so gorgeous. How's Annie and Ellie.


CONGRATULAIONS again EM

Take Care JomaeXXX
