MARCH-CYCLE BUDDIES

[rae76]

Kandice, I just missed your post. Oh honey, I'm so sorry you have to keep hanging in a limbo..... Try to hang in there! Hopefully it's not an ectopic - I'm sending you lots of PMA!!

[nimble]

wow sha they must have knocked you out for 6!! I've been tile hunting, food shopping oh and sitting on here all afternoon!

15 eggies - fantastic numbers - fingers crossed for you tomorrow.

Sorry the EC was painful, have you taken any paracetomals?? I'm starting to ache but not in any real pain - gee what did they do to you

I should get a phone call by 9:30am in the morning so around the same time as you. Will post as soon as I know.

Kandice - thats really fantastic news (i mean about the beta) - this is just sounding like Laura Lou case - they said exactly the same thing and as I said she is with twins. Praying hard that they have it all wrong!

Steph – CONGRATULATION SWEETIE.

Kandice – you really have been thought it haven’t you honey. Thinking of you lots hope it’s not an etopic.

Sonya – good luck with your trigger shot tonight. Hope EC goes well for you and you get lots of eggies.

Stephanie – sorry babe can’t help you, as my clinic doesn’t even do b/w at all.

Nicki – you sure do sound better and more relaxed. Good luck for the stimming.

Mama – how was your EC????

Holly – 11 eggs that brill, can’t wait for your update.

Rae – how are you honey??? And hows that little one coming along.

Quita – welcome honey. Good luck.

Nerms – hi there sweetie how you doing on the dreaded 2ww??? Hope those little one’s are snuggling into their mummy nice and tight.

Shantala – well honey your still oozing that PMA, Egypt sounds lovely, got room in your suitcase for me?????

Nimble – god only knows what happened, they gave me my meds and it just wasn’t enough, could feel everything, poor nurse now has a bruised hand. They then gave me a second dose, which completely knocked me out. Only just starting to wake up. Have a 12hour shift to do tomorrow and at this precise moment I don’t think I’m in a fit state to work for 1 hour.

Glad you EC went well and wish you all the best for tomorrows news. Lets get those BFP’s together honey.

Well ladies I know I have missed loads of you out but thinking of you all

[rae76]

Anna and Yarnista, I'm so, so sorry it didn't work out for you guys this time. There are really no words, but my thoughts are with you... Sending lots of hugs, hang in there......

[MamaCardenas]

Hi everyone Thanks for checking on me, again this wil be a short post for some reason being on the computer is making me dizzy and feel sick, which sucks because Im laying in bed all day and being online is my favorite thing to do!!!
Anyway, I had my Egg Retrieval this morning and it went great 34 eggs!!!! Not all of those are mature but 34 total, the Dr. told me I have 3 soccer teams! LOL
So today they will be fertilized with ICSI and then tomorrow they will call and let me know how many fertilized, Can't wait to get that call!!!! Im feeling great so excited, a lot of cramping just like my periods usually are so nothing too bad!

SMATTISON just wanted to let you know my clinic told me they wanted the E2 level at between 3000-4000 when they do the EC but dont let that get to you , you will be shocked at how fast those numbers go up!!

[yarnista]

I know we're not doc's on here but I was just wondering if anyone knows because he didn't call like they said he would. (Can you tell I'm a wee bit perturbed?) Anyways, I was going to ask him this do I need to keep taking the progesterone and estrogen now that I know it's a BFN? I didn't know if maybe you are supposed to taper off rather than just stop. Perhaps I should just call the answering service and asking him to call.

[sokru8]

Yarnista and Anna: I am soo sorry. I know from experience the sadness you are feeling. Just know that we are here for you. XOXO

Yarnista: When I got my bfn I stopped all meds. But be sure to call and ask your dr. I know that after the whole thing was over we felt a little left out in the cold. They just said bad news and call the dr in 2 weeks.

Good morning ladies-

Well as for me, DH took me out for dinner and some romance, since it is really the last Saturday we can do anything for a few weeks. Trigger next Saturday! It was wonderful and romantic. Whwn we got home I wanted some ice cream and he said “since I am such a wonderful “DH” I will make it for you”. I just started laughing uncontrollable…and he asked why, I told him that all the DH’s make comments about our lingo and it is so cute.

As for my state of mind and body I still feel like Sh$%^ but this to will pass. I really look prego and I like pretending. I find myself rubbing my belly and talking to the eggies growing…LOL I take Menopur in the AM and it sucks. It really stings and I can’t ever really get back to sleep. I have to take it at 7am everyday since DH gives me the shot and I have to do it before he goes to work and that really stinks for the weekends. Gotta run see you gals later!

Hiya

You posted this a few minutes after I left here the other night.

I'm glad you're being cared for, and looking after yoruself . My hubby's been clearing the back bedroom saying he wants to get a start on it. He's been doing the house cleaning, and he's even baked 2 loaves of bread this week and has been cooking my meals. LOL I could used to this lifestyle quite easily. I didn't even think of doing my shot an hour earlier so they're still on the GMT , it's reading this post jsut now, I realised they're being done an hour later now doh! Oh well, I'll still being them around the same time each night. I hope you're scan goes ok for you hun , you anxious or excited? I can't figure out what the heck I am lol.

[jstrandlund]

Hey Ladies, just a quick post for me today. I get to trigger tonight, WOOO HOOO! My ET will be Wednesday at 8:30am. As of right now I have 9-11 follies size 15-22. So we are anticipating a good number on collection day. Sonya we are now on the same schedule. I will be thinking of you while i am going through all my proceedures.
I hope everyone else is doing well!

[MarciaL-OurHope4Baby]

Hi girls! Hope everybody is having a wonderful weekend. I can officially say this is the best weekend of my life because we just got our BFP!!! I'm still in shock but obviously so excited. DH is taking me out to a fancy dinner tonight to celebrate!

Thanks to ALL of you for your unbelievable support over the past month. I don't think I oculd have made it this far without you!!

I will check in tomorrow with personals....

Love you all!

XO
Steph

Wishing you and hubby all the best Speph, that's news.

[MarciaL-OurHope4Baby]

[color=indigoMarcia - thank you for the tip on Arnica, unfort I just have paracetomal which is ok to take, but shall reminder yr tip for future.

How are you feeling?

Hi hun, I don't know why I didn't think of posting it earlier actually but keep your lower abdomen warm as well. A hot water bottle wrapped in a bath towel and then placed over your clothes, should give off enough heat that's not too hot. It'll promote good healthy blood flow to the embryos as well.

I know you have a lot on your mind, but trying to focus on your little ones going that are waiting to come home might be the way to go. The hardest thing I had to to was ttc again after my EP, and it is hard when a certain date comes along, and old thoughts and emotions come flooding back, it's like reliving it again. Try and push through all that as much as you can, and do't let it take this happy time away from you babes. Be strong you can do it . Those are great numbers to work with so fingers crossed for you .

[MarciaL-OurHope4Baby]

congrats steph on the BFP!

nerms- yay for having your babies back home with you! get some rest- when so you test?

Sha, mama, and nimble- thinking of you during the EC! you'll be fine!

go back for beta #4 today- AF still hasn't come- DH and I are so optimists and I know we're going to get our feelings hurt- usually happens, but we were both talking- well since AF hasn't come yet- and I don't feel it at all, then maybe there's still a chance and maybe just 1 baby let go... most likely not, but there's still hope.

I know I don't deserve it as much as Aunty does, but I also signed up for robinhood.com- it'll be active on wednesday. if anyone wants to go to my site...

have a great day everyone!

Don't be like that hun, you're just as deserving as anyone, and don't ever think you're not. It's not an impossible thing to happen, and I've see it twice, and like the 'vanishing twin' situation that some women that sometimes pg with multiples. Sometimes there's a loss and one that youget didn't know was there, is then strong enough to keep going. As your AF isn't here, there ever every hope for you guys.

Take care and good luck sweetie, I'm hoping this is a good sign .

[MarciaL-OurHope4Baby]

Does anyone know what a good estrogen level is. My doc just called and said it was 524 and that it was good?? I am on Day 6 of stimming.

Between 150 -200 per egg for you E2 level, so at 524 you either have 3 or 2 and a small one. It's a good number .

[MarciaL-OurHope4Baby]

Natalie - You have great numbers there, glad it all went well, make sure you keep your tummy warm now, I've already picked out which duvet I'll be snuggling up on the sofa with after I have my ER and ET.

Good luck for TD
