hey kandice and mrs b - at egg collection/ovulation you are regarded as already being pregnant 2 weeks (in effect) as they count as from your last period...so everyone who gets a BFP after the 2ww is around 4 weeks...hope that makes senses...

mrsb - congrats again!! your numbers sound fab!!

nerms - woooohooooo!!!! 16 is amazing!!!

Mrs. B CONGRATS!!!! your first scan in 20 days , is that to see how many heartbeats?? Wow that's going to be a long 20 days but you have so much to be thankful for in the mean time!!! yay~!!


Smattison- I added you to my friends on myspace, you have such a beautiful family!! By the way how were you able to figure out a due date?? Im jumping ahead but I cant help it!

shantala- Thanks for adding me =) you are so beautiful as well! wishing you lots of luck for your BFP!!!! Cant wait to hear how it goes!!!

Nerms- Congrats on your 16 eggs, crazy dream!!! I havnt gotten much sleep since I started this whole thing but Im sure once I do I will have some crazy dreams of my own!


Kandice- My Dr. actually talked to me for the 1st time today about OHSS, but he said he is monitoring me I am in there everyday for lab work and US so he said everything looks fine! thanks for clearing that uP!


Nimble & jstrandlund- waiting to hear how your scans went....lots of growing follies I hopE!!

as for me I went in this morning, they havnt called me yet with the lab results and i think I posted my results yesterday but if not my E2 level was 897, today the Dr said I have LOTS of active folicles, he said there are for sure 20 that are great quality and good size, he didn't tell me WHAT SIZE LOL he just said great size....So I don't know what that means, but he says everything looks good, everything is right on track! So thats great news to me! He said If I start getting too many follies he says they will take me off the meds the last day and let the weak ones die off and the good strong ones will hold on, he said this is where it gets tricky cause they want the good ones to keep devloping and the others to stop and not get too many he talked to me a little bit about OHSS but he said that's why they are monitoring me daily and not to worry about it he will take care of everything!! so Im happy right now, just waiting to find out my E2 level!!!
Hope everyone has a great day!

Mamma-Well this morning when I was at the Doc office I saw a pregnancy wheel. I just so happened to pick it up and put in my dates...LOL You can take my due date with the EC April 2nd and add or subtract to figure out what your due date will be. Good Luck!

Lots of good news today!!!!

My official congrats to Mrs. B!!!! What a great number!

Nerms, good job on those eggies! Weird about dreams, huh?! I wish they all do come true! Will be tuning in for your fert report tomorrow. Good luck.

Smattison, welcome to the nutty train-the stims phase!!! I didn't know ovaries are different sizes until you said that. I thought my left ovary was a little abnormal when I heard the size which was almost less than half of the size of the right. Good to know that's normal! Grow follies grow!!!

Sher8, thanks for that explanation...I've been feeling better today which actually concerned me too but just glad my right ovary is not exploding or something. :wink: And I definitely will refrain from using an HPT since I don't think I can handle the stress of reading the result.

Shantala, best of luck again tomorrow!!!!! I'll be praying for you and dh!!!! I'm sooooo excited for your great news!

Welcome Nelly!!! Good luck with your 2ww and keep sane. I'm in the middle of it and getting more nervous by the second.

Kandice, good luck with your third beta!!! I'm sure it'll be triple or quadrupled!!!!

Had progesterone check today and this was at 69....anybody know what this number should be if I'm on PIO shots already? Nurse told me to keep the same dosage of the shot. 1cc/day

shantala- so that would make me due- turkey week and not dec 8th- ugh- I really love love love black friday- and the chance of being in the hospital at that time?! I guess the baby will have to wait- momma's going shopping!! lol! good luck tomorrow- can't wait to hear!

mama- not a problem- I hated all the lab work that I had to do when I was being monitored for OHSS- good luck with yours! my nurse would call me and adjust my meds each day too- sometimes I didn't take any follistim just repronex, sometimes I didn't take any lupron...

anna- so does your right side hut more? my left side had more follies and I couldn't stand putting any shots in on the left side- it was really sore. so my right belly got all black and blue! lol
don't know about prog levels- I'm doing 1cc a day of PIO too! are your's going ok?

WELCOME NElly!!

Kandice- Sounds like they are already monitoring me for that because each day I go in for blood draw and they change my meds depending on that so thanks again!! Oh and Im not taking any repronex just follistim and lupron? ive never heard of repronex?



smattison-OK cool I've been trying to do a due date calculator online and it tells me "your due date is too far in advance" LOL frustrating!!! anyway I figured mine out according to yours and it would be Dec 17th!!! Couldnt ask for a better Xmas gift!!!

Congratulations Mrs. B!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
I feel like I am going crazy during this 2ww. Anyone else out there feeling the same? I just can't stop thinking about it, thankfully I have a girlfriend coming over to visit tomorrow.
I have a good feeling that a lot of us will have BFP's! I'm trying to decide if I should start knitting some baby stuff. I'm knitting scarves for the women at the doc's office and for the doc himself. So that's keeping me busy in the mean time!
