Noodle - just read your post....my goodness, you must be so stressed. I know with IVF, we should be very accurate with the # of weeks/days, but are you absolutely sure you counted correctly? Any chance you're not as far along as you thought? Maybe you had late implantation - I've heard that can cause some delays. I'm going to continue to keep everything crossed for you that the heartbeat comes next week. When's your scan next week? Hang in there!

Tonia,
I'm sorry to hear your news. (((hugs))) Please hang in there. I'll pray that things get better for you.

Noodle,
You are in my thoughts and prayers. I've got my fingers crossed that the little one is still with you and growing.

Jovigal,
You don't have to put anything in your MySpace page that you don't want to. You can even exclude yourself from the search and like Erin said, you can set your profile to private (for friends only).

Hope everyone is doing well. Sorry, this is so short, I'll try to do more posting later.

Suzhan- next scan is thurs 1/18, ER was on 12/1 and ET was on 12/4. DR has me the same dates as I have, 8 weeks today.

I have found a couple of different sights, a couple of success stories but not many and no reasons why. DR didn't even give us a pic this last time, not very promising. we are keeping our hopes up and have plenty of PMA with all you guys! So far i still have preg symptoms, haven't picked up anything heavier than purse and get right into bed when I get home from work. DH is precious has been doing everything (not perfect) but he trys.

Thanks again for everyone's support and wishes.

Noodle - of course you're perfect in your calculations - it was a long-shot but I thought just to check and be sure, since sometimes at this early phase even being off by a few days here or there can make a big difference. I pray your little one is just a late bloomer and will show up strong next week. You're in my thoughts!

Suzhan-Thanks! Dr told us to just worry about what fetus was measuring, 6w2d as of last Thursday. We are hoping for at least "normal growth" for this week which would still put us behind about 10-12 days and of course a strong HB. Then maybe we can relax a little. Everyday I get more and more nauseous, today begin the worst yet, so that's a good sign. I hope your right and it's just a late bloomer.
Angelica- So sorry about your twin lost. Last night on the National Geographic channel they had a show on about human multiples and losses and pretty much everything with US' and everything. Very interesting and informative.
Mia-[/b]
Only 10 more days....Yeah! Good Luck, everything crossed for you!
Beachbaby- Good Luck with FET, your count down is on also! sticky baby dust!

DH and I are glad we had a better WE than last, no eventful trips to the ER, thank goodness! We are trying to stay positive, all your positive thoughts, prayers and hope has helped tremendously!

Noodle - glad to hear from you! I wish Thursday could come faster - I'm sending as much PMA your way as possible and am just praying for your little one.

Beachbaby - glad to hear you're on your way to your FET! I'm sure 2007 will bring you lots of wonderful news, bet of luck to you!

Cindy - Haven't heard from you in ages - you still out there? I hope you're okay. Will you be discharged from Dr. S. (and the PIO's) this week? Hope so.

Angelica - I too was so sorry to hear about your twin. I know how much that must hurt but you still have your other precious baby who is healthy and strong. I hope the pain eases some soon. I also saw some of the national geographic special that Noodle mentions, One of the things they said is that the 'vanishing twin' is very common - not that it makes you feel any better, I'm sure. Take care.

Hope everyone else is well.

Hi everyone!! Sorry I was MIA, I had to take a last min. emergency trip back east and just got back last night. There is a lot going on here.

Noodle: I hope everything goes well for you on Thursday!!! Thinking lots of good thoughts.

Suzhan: I was thinking of you. How did your last scan go?? I go for my last scan this morning. When I was out of town, I called Dr. S. and he let me stop my PIO on Friday. I'm so happy...I was getting really sick of it!! I got a really bad stomach flu while I was out of town and have a bad cold still, so I hope the babies grew nicely in the past 2 weeks. I go for an early amnio in 2 weeks...have you decided what you're going to do??

Angellica: I'm sorry to hear about your twin. That is heartbreaking. Take it easy.

Sorry for no other personals, I need to catch up on a few pages. Stay strong everyone!!

Hi girls, thought i would drop in on you guys... I lurk occasionally (oooo...doesn't that sound creepy???!)

Noodle: awww honey, everything crossed for you! gl on your scan, i think it was on thurs? I can't imagine how hard this wait must be for you. You are in my prayers

Tonia: SO sad to hear your beta dropped some. I wish i had something to say that could make things better. How are you doing?? You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Mia: WHASSSUP, girl? ooooo, look how close we are getting (and Jan 25 used to seem a year away :D !). wow, isn't this FET thing cake compared to a fresh? You are on the lupron, right? Are you having many symptoms. From listening to others, it is h@ll! Hope you are doing well!

Cinders and Suzhan: it is great to see your tickers moving along!

Wishing the best to all of you!!!

Hey Sassy - thanks much. I 'lurk' a bit on your dec/jan forum as well, so I've been keeping my eyes on you and Mia. I'm convinced this special protocol you both were on will be successful for you. There was an IVF researcher that used to lurk and post on these boards (now I think he just lurks). Anyway, he had many positive comments about moving on to FET for ladies who had failed fresh cycles a couple of times because of the better ability to prepare the lining for implantation, etc. I wish you both tremendous success this year!

Cindy - welcome back! How was flying - I flew back to Wisconsin over the holidays and found it pretty exhausting but bearable. You're so lucky to be done with the PIOs. I'm hopefully going to get that news tomorrow. I saw my OB yesterday for the first time and I absolutely love him. Many of those I work with and others I know had him deliver their baby and I'm really glad with my choice. He did another ultrasound yesterday morning (abdominal one this time) and I could see the baby squirming around & it looked like he/she was waving back at me. I think I'm finally (dare I say it) starting to be a little more relaxed. He also really supported my plan of early NT scan and if all was looking good that I should avoid CVS or amnio. That was a big relief as I thought I might have to push that point, but he was the one that actually brought it up as his recommended course of action. Kind of a breath of fresh air considering Dr. S. has been pushing amnio since day 1. So, they took what seemed to be a gallon of blood and then sent me off to the perinatologist for the NT ultrasound. We'll see what happens after that. Anyway, great to hear from you - hope you're well. I hope your scan goes really well today. Keep us posted!

Take care!

Hey girls! how is everyone? Tonia? Noodle?

I had an US yesterday and my linning is more than adequet now. I still have more than a week to go, I hope my linning doesn't get too thick. :? Crazy but I actually can't wait to be on the 2ww again. Crazy huh?

Sassy,
Yup, on Lupron. It sucks, but only until Friday, Yeah! :D Then I get to do PIOs. :( I had headaches in the beginning, but drinking lots of water and occasional tylenol seems to help. My skin is rashy, I think from the Lupron, but could be the dry cold air. It happens almost every year at this time.

DH is sick today. I got to go nurse him a bit.

XO
