Way to go SilvaCharm.
Emma, I will be praying that u get ur heart's desire. We put our bodies thru so much just to get to this point. I know that it will not be in vain.

As 4 my update. I have one hard-headed one in the bunch. 13 out of 14 fertilized. I am praying the other one catches up (Wishful thinking). My RE told me it will most likely be Tues 4 my transfer. I am sooooooo excited.
As for the pain, it still lingers on. I eventually slept on the floor. My dog that it was a great opportunity to flop across my pillow, while I slept on the carpet. He's so spoiled.

Here's some sticky baby dust coming to all of us.

Hi ladies,

Aunty,Aren't you doing brilliant girl. So many blasts too. You will for sure get a BFP. Hope you had a great birthday last night honey.

Sophie,
How are you feeling other than constipated. I was in agony with that after my EC. I ate loads of pears and drank peppermint tea and boy did I go after that.

Erin,Well done on the BFP honey. Bet you are still pinching yourself.

Shantala,Glad hubby is out of hospital and that you are still going ahead with treatment. It's your time now girl.

Mia,Twins...wow.. Bet you are so excited. I am fully convinced I am carrying twins..we are even laying some money on it. I am already suffering horendous morning sickness..but mainly in the evening.

Ems,How you doing honey? Bet the news is settling in now. Still pinching yourself I am sure. Look after yourself.

Emma,
My fellow mancunian. Hope you get a great big BFP next week. We gotta keep those hospitals in Manchester busy.

Nouna,Hope your 2WW isn't too bad. Keep positive.

Susette,I can't believe you can still walk after 35 eggs...wow.. Congrats on the fertilisation..good numbers.

Well I am still keeping my feet firmly on the ground. Not getting too excited about the BFP yet. Unfortunately I have history of miscarriage so BFP doesn't necessarily mean giving birth but fingers crossed. I feel a lot different this time thankfully and I have already had morning sickness so hopefully thats a good sign.

I would like to stay with you ladies for a while. Not ready to move over to the other side until I am positive there is a baby there (scan). I would rather stay here cheering you ladies on. Its the least I could do after all the support you have given me over multiple cycles.

Hey lady's went shopping ...only for food nothing good...LOL

Sophie im all bound up too or i was i am now taking stool softners twice a day it took a good three days for it to fully work but now im getting there i used to use mineral oil its great because it doesnt get into the blood stream but you can take it too often as it can stop all the great vits getting to the baby.

oo about your baby question...not only does the cervix open but the body produces contractions that squeeze the baby out too so its a whole package thing, thing i think is worse is the fact you can give yourself lumpy bum if you strain too hard.

Aunty Sassy your the best do you know that,all that made me want to be 5 again if that doesnt work i dont know what will....thank you

TC OMG i would give what sophie said a try a good kick in the nuts MEN!!!

SS way to go on your 11 perfect embies...come on babies grow for mommy, so they wont call now until sunday?

Nouna thank you so much, your right the TWW is a mental nightmare and it seems to take sooooo long...were all with you hugs

Sam is mad he said they called so early why dont they call us now because we have to wait a whole night :roll: i have been doing this for days now while hes been at work....i like that hes getting to experience some of it( mean hormonal moment)...LOL and i have to say this is harder than the TWW i had no idea what all you blast transfer lady's went through before its a killer....oh boy come on babies

love to you all Aunty

Aunty, WOOOOOHOOOO! That's sooo awesome! You are doing Superb girl. I have been doing the green tea. It does seem to help with getting rid of water weight. I just added weights back in a few weeks ago. They told me to do just do cardio, and that was working. I asked one of the trainers there, and he told me to add weights back in twice a week. I do cardio every day. 45 minutes - 1 hour on days I don't do weights, and about 25 mintues on the days I do. I actually went in this morning and was down 1.5 lbs. It's the first time the scale has moved in weeks. 6.5 more to go by March 5th which is baseline.

ERIN! DOUBLE WOOOOHOOOO!!!! Congratulations! That's wonderful, super, excellent news. Those embies are warm and comfy in there. :-)

Fed: Congratulations on the BFP. Take care of yourself.

Aunty: Great news on the embies. Those bad boys will be home soon..(or girls)..hehehe.

Cinny: 13 healthy embies. Good for you!

Shantala:
I'm so glad your DH is home now. That has to be a little stress off of you. I'm also happy the two of you will continue with your cycle.

SS: I'm doing well. I think that once we "pass" the ultrasound, it may all sink in, DH and I haven't told our families; we're waiting until after the ultrasound. As for you, 11 embies...you go girl! Not too long now b4 your little ones are back where they belong and you're in the dreaded 2ww...

Tootles, ladies!

Good evening guys,

A quickie before I get away from that computer! :)

Thanks for all your advice ladies about the constipation. However, I'll only stick to what's IBS friendly, and bran definitely isn't, for example. I'll try good old prunes and see what happens. It's not that bad for now... yesterday made a difference.

ag: yes, it's the progesterone. Even with a natural pregnancy, you become constipated real early in the process. Well, you've heard the ladies! Eat prunes, pears, drink mineral oil, peppermint tea, take supplements! ;) And don't push too hard so your bum doesn't turn into a cauliflower! :lol: (LOL Aunty, loved that one!)

Hey nouna; saw your post just tonight. Sorry to hear that your 2ww is the ,most difficult part for you. What's difficult for you in particular?

ss wonderful fert rate! Tons of embies! Woohoooo! :D :D :D Have a nice weekend preparing to become pregnant my dear!

Cinny: please don't fret over that one egg; 13 out of 14 is an amazing fert rate! I empathize about the pain, I sure felt the same way! Though my dog would have simply licked me all over, sniffed me all over and stuck her cold wet nose against every exposed part of my skin and then she would have slumped right next to me and sighed. Absolutely charming when I'm trying to do pilates! She becomes crazy!

Macca: come here sweetie: HUG! Hang in there! I'm waiting with you in thoughts, and keeping everything crossed for you! Either way, it's great to still have you here! mwah!

Aunty: You're lucky that your DH shows impatience while waiting, just like you. Must be great to share that emotion with him, even if sometimes... evilish great! ;) Mine was far too zen to sympathize, lol!

Tata ladies! Off to our typical but amazing TV Friday night! soooooooo relaxing!

Sassy i forgot to ask you if being a Toys R Us kid counts? If so then count me in!

I hope that all you ladies have a great evening, I am feeling a bit under the weather, so DH has offered to fetch me dinner and draw me a bath and put me to bed......AN OFFER I CANNOT REFUSE!!!!!

Aunty: nah...not gonna do it... not gonna send you the list! :lol: . i have finally just figured out what i am doing! And you still need time off for your transfer (wow, i will make a real bossy mom, no?). You can have the list back after your transfer if you REALLY want it.

shantala: SO glad to hear dh doing better and now home for you to dote on. Ooooo, isn't it exciting to get meds? this will be my fourth shipment... and i still think it is fun to open them all up!

Rachel: i, too have times when i can't sleep due to ivf anxiety (night before last only got 2 hrs for that reason). Always seems like so much to worry about. I am hoping that you get tons of rest tonight. Looking forward to your ET on Wed. How many frosties do you have?

SC: nice beta, babe!!!

EMS: please let us know how your scan goes...

TC: sounds like you are already getting the princess treatment... date last night, dinner and bath tonight. Nice! Is he just trying to make up for the 25 gallons :shock: of salt water???? oooo, btw... sending you the list.

ssalgado and cinny: congrats on your ferts! Do either of you get an update tomorrow?

nouna: hang in there! I, too find the 2ww very difficult. Try to just enjoy being PUPO!

Lisa: happy to have your company as long as possible. oooo, m/s is a good sign!

BWHD: congrats on your 1.5 lb. brava! definitely still moving in the right direction!

Anyone is welcome at "Aunt Sassy's Special Sleepovers". They are quite a hit w/ my nieces and nephews. Only rule will be... the kids get first crack at the candy drawer! :lol:

To all you 2ww'ers.... wishing you all the patience in the world!

As for me... got my schedule today... will start stims on March 3rd. wooohoo! now i have to admit part of me is VERY excited... but part of me is saying "what the h*ll am i doing this again for?" :lol:

Ciao!
