Well EC is over and we got 5 eggs. Doc said they looked good and the cells around them were great. Going back to bed now, will keep you posted tomorrow. Hope your fingers are crossed.
Jen,

Do not worry! I know it is hard, I too cried when they only found 5 eggs during my EC. I know this will work for you! Keep your chin up and try to enjoy yourself. If I were you, I would have a really nice quite dinner with DH. When we had our EC, My hubby set up a small table in our bedroom with candles and Little Ceaser Pizza. The boys and we enjoyed a destracting evening before our IVF world turned upside down.

This has been a great month and all of you who are still on your 2ww or about to start, good luck. This lucky month will follow you!

Nance--Thanks for asking about me and for the prayers... We really appreciate it... I was really cramping last night, I guess that the PIO is finally out of my system and letting my body have a period... I stayed home from work today and hopefully the worst is over and I will start feeling better... I have a follow up with my RE on the 13th, I have had all the testing that they can do so I really don't know what else they can tell me... Even if we decide to do another FET cycle we will not be able to do it till after the first of the year because the clinic doesn't accept new cycles during nov and dec. Anyway I will be fine, I know that there is a plan for us and it is just a matter of time before it all falls into place!!!

Great numbers by the way!!! Can't wait for you scan report on Thursday!!!! Thanks for being so supportive thru all this!!! Good luck and I hope you keep in touch!!!

Jen1-So glad to hear that your EC went well. I think 5 eggs is good; can't wait to hear how they fertilize!

Nance-glad your HCG went well; looks like you have strong numbers so far!

Believebaby-good luck with your scan! Can't wait to hear your results! I too don't have any symptoms. I have been worried about that. The only symptom I have had is a bit of dizziness after laying down for a long time and I have been a bit tired but no nausea, sore boobs or anything like that! Makes me worry that something isn't right! But we have to remember that everyone is different; maybe we are just lucky so far?!

Jeck-I have been thinking about you so much and sending you good thoughts. You have such a positive outlook. I am sorry to hear that you are not feeling very well. Be good to yourself-you deserve it.


I had my 2nd HCG today and it was 3371. Today is 19dp3dt. I don't know too much about what the numbers mean but I was relieved that the number had increased as I have been worried! One baby step in the right direction I guess. I am trying to take each day at a time and not worry too much but it is hard!

Hope you are all well and that those in the 2ww are keeping sane!! Good luck all!

Hi guys,

Well its officially a BFP for me! My beta 13dp3dt is 481. Having more bloods on thursday.

Was told to book into the private maternity hospital today by my doctor as there is only limited spaces and he only delivers his girls there....so I did and man it felt weird! I am still a little wary but everyone at the clinic is so positive.

Good luck to those of you left and congrats Jill!

Hi girls,

Well the news is in and 4 EGGS HAVE FERTILIZED

Feel positive about that and hope they keep developing overnight. He is unsure when my ET will be and has me on standby for tomorrow at 10.30am but feels it will probably be on Thursday. He will call me tomorrow at 9am and let me know.
I prefer 3rd day transfers so they can assess the embies and definately put back the ones that have developed the best. Last time one of the embies they were going to put back in on day 2 looked good but they waited until day 3 and that one didnt survive. So day 3 i say, i hope, then they can pick 2 that have developed the best.

Thanks for all your good wishes.Its brilliant to read your posts and they keep me positive. Cowgirls and Believebaby, i'm following your lead, thanks.

Jill and Em - :lol: Congrats to you both, brilliant news.

Will pop back in later

CONGRATULATIONS Jill and Em!! That is such great news! Best wishes for a happy and healthy pregnancy!!!

Jill-I know exactly how you feel; we've been trying for over 5.5 yrs and never expected to get a postive. It's hard to believe, isn't it?!

Jen1-congrats on your embies! Four is great! I had a 3 day transfer too and you are right, it really does help them pick the strongest ones. Good luck with your ET!! I hope your embies keep growing and growing!!

Take care everyone! I love logging in to see BFPs! It makes me so happy!!

Happy Halloween girls! Congrats to Jill and Em!! That's wonderful news!
Jen1 you have great numbers, good luck on ET!!
Thursday I am going to the Dr. to discuss my cycle. I don't know what they will tell me but I am scared she will tell me something I don't want to hear like my eggs were awful or something. I don't think Dh can go due to work so I am on my own. I didn't want to reschedule. I want it over with. We are still trying to decide if we will do this again or take a break.
Take care everyone and have a great day!
Jenn

Happy Halloween Ladies!!! Image

Jeck - I hope you are feeling better today. I think about you all the time and hope you are coping alright. Sorry you haven't been feeling good! Take all the time you need to gain you strength back. You are in my thoughts and prayers!

JenJ - Those numbers are great. Image You are on your way!! We are the lucky one's to not have any symptoms yet. Let's hope it lasts!

Jill & Em - Congratulations!!! Image Can't wait to see those number climb. I hope you are both feeling good. Get lots of rest and let those DH's spoil you rotten!

Jen1d - That is so great that you had 4 fertilize. Image I too had the 3dt and think that will give those embys time to grow before they snuggle in for the next 9 months. Be sure to let us know when you schedule the ET.

Jenn - I will be thinking about you on Thursday and hoping you get some good news. Image Be sure to let us know how it goes.

Well, I had my first scan yesterday and we saw the baby and sac!!! I was so surprised as I thought it would be too soon. The doc thinks there is only one but I did my bw and the count came back at 17,551 (23dp3dt). Image A week prior it was 1,365 so he said it was a dramatic increase that would make him believe there was more than one. We will know more next Wednesday when I go back fom my 2nd scan. He said by then we should be able to see the heartbeat so I am so excited for that. I still haven't had any symptoms so was starting to worry. My doc said that everything is going beautifully though and he doesn't anticipate any problems. I am very relieved but can't help but worry still.

Well, I hope you are all having a great halloween. Image
