Lola,

That is fantastic news!!! It is almost everyone's dream going through IVF, or at least mine. I am happy with my baby girl but when I did not know the amount of babies that took part of me wanted twin boy/girl so I could be done forever with fertility issues.

Good for you for going to buy them something. I have always heard that is the thing to do as those items will always be special for you.

Exciting Exciting.


My babyshower invites went out today.....feels official that the end is near. First baby class this weekend. Wow!

It is nice to see that most of you girls are into the "safe zone", it is a great place to be. Thank you again for the support on my dog, it has helped. Since I am too emotional too talk about with my friends the emailing about it helps.

Yea Lola--Boy and girl? How perfect is that? Congrats!

Sam-when is your baby shower? Did you register? Who is hosting it? I can understand how the shower makes it seems official. You are almost there. When exactly is your due date?

Myhb--How are you????

Champa - I wish you the best of luck!

Lola - That's so exciting now to know you have a boy and a girl. My Level 2 ult is scheduled for March 7th right at 18 weeks so I hope we are able to tell what my twins are then..

Sorry to hear about all the other sad news and tough times. Hope as the weather begins to warm all the negative stuff goes away with the dreary winter and SUNSHINE is there for everyone.

Dear friends,
ER went fine. We got 4 eggs. I had my ET done on 26th with 3 embryo's transferred. I am just keeping my fingers crossed. I took off from work on 26th and 27th and I am just taking it easy.

This time, I had 2 8cell and I am happy about it. Last cycle I only had 1 8cell but more in quantity.
samandaw1- I agree. It's so true quantity has nothing to do with quality :)

I would like to thank each one of u for ur prayers and wishes.

My Pregnancy test is scheduled for March 8th (Women Day). I hope it will be my day too!!!!

Good luck to all of u.
Love ,

Champa! --- I am so happy that everything went so well! I had three embies transferred as well and they were all 8 cell! Have a happy 2ww and I cannot wait to hear the good news!

Imsb12203 --- I also cannot wait for you to find out the genders of the babies. It is so exciting, whatever they say it is! 18 weeks is the time to find out!

I already started planning the nursery. I found some beautiful crib sets at Target, that are the same, but one is blue and one is pink. I want to paint the room as well. They will be sharing one room at the beginning and then later they can have their own rooms. Time is running so fast! I still need to do so much! I still don't feel the babies moving at all. But my belly shifts from side to side sometimes so I know they are happily swimming in there. I have already gained 30 pounds! Can you believe? People don't believe it when they look at me, but the scale is right! It may be because I am tall and I was a bit underweight when I started this, but still... wow, it is amazing.

Love Lola

Stephanie - Wheatgrass is suppose to lower ur FSH. Wheat gass shot is actually wheat grass juice. U can get it from Jamba Juice or can buy frozen wheat grass shot online or in Nob Hill Foods.

Lola - I am feeling better after knowing that you also had 3 8cells transferred. Thanks...

Love,
