Hi Ladies,
It's almost the weekend WOO WHOOOOO!!! The weekends usually go by pretty fast for me because I have to go back to work on Monday and then in for testing on Tuesday.

CLK--I'll have to take your advice and go shopping, I never have a problem with that! I've managed to steer clear of the HPT's so far so good. Congrats on your great #'s!!!!!!!

sokru8--where are you in the 2ww? We have Dr. Wing (I'm guessing that was what DR was right?) They transferred 2 but I kinda wanted 3 but I'm guessing that was too risky due to my age--28 and because our issue is with DH. How's your wait going for you? One day at a time is all we can do. Any HPT's?

Wow Courtney! I'm so excited for you!!! Can't wait to hear your official good news.

Looks like I jumped in with the right ladies! I'm feeling good things for us ALL!!!!

Sassy:I test in 9 days! I can't wait for the weekend either!

Courtney! Woooo Hooo Keep the streak going! Yeah

CKL: When is your U/S?
My boobs are soooo sore! I hope that is a good sign and not just the progesterone!

XOXO

I'm still trying to read all the past posts. You guys have me cracking up reading some of this stuff and then the very next minute I'm furious at some of the things some people have had to go through. I'm just glad to have found this site. I've learned so much already. Well, I guess I'll keep reading until I get to sleepy to continue.

Good night!

Shannon ... it gets a little silly around here at times! I can't believe you haven't broken down and tested yet ..... then again, this is coming from a total POAS addict (Pee On A Stick)

*** I may have already posted this ... I get this board confused sometimes with my other IVF board ... but my IVF nurse allowed me to come in early for my beta ...(I think I drive her crazy) ...anway ... at 8dp5dt (or 13dpo) ...my beta was 240, and my progesterone was 62.2 !
We are thrilled! I go back in on Monday for another beta ... then again on Thursday.

CKL .. Girl, when is your ultrasound>>>???

Sonya ....I miss talking to you 4x a day! :-)

XOXO

Happy Easter!!!

Congratulations on your positive HPT Sonya!!!! That is wonderful:) I broke down and did one yesterday and it came back negative. I'm going to hold off until my official test of Tuesday at this point.

Where is everyone? Hope you all are doing well. This weekend has been rough for me. I thought it would go by fast but not so much. Will anyone be going to REACH on Tuesday morning? I'd like to think that I will be the bright and early for my bloodwork but I usually have trouble waking up in the morning (no matter what is going on) so I''m guessing I'll be there around 8am for my beta....and then I wait.

How long has it taken for you all to get your official results? The last time I didn't get mine until around 2 that afternoon because they said they were having trouble with the equipment. I went in at about 7:30 that morning so that was a looooooong wait.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Sonya,
I hope everything is well with you? When is your u/s?

My first beta was 86.5. I have my next one on Monday. Keep your fingers crossed that those numbers have doubled for us!! I am keeping a PMA! I have read it can go either way....

Sassy, it may just be too early. Use that First Response EPT it only requires 15. Good Luck on Tuesday!

WOW! There is so much going on!!!! Sonya I am so happy and excited for you...have you done another one yet? what day is your official test? are you going to call your nurse and tell them that you got a BFP?

Robyn that is great news too! my nurse told me that over 50 is good so 86.5 should be great. Please let us know as soon as you hear something.

Courtney have you gone for your second Beta yet?

I can't remember who asked about the results time, but we found out by like...10:30ish each time except my third beta, which was late in the afternoon because that was the day that their machines were down.

As for me...definintely starting to feel yukky...upset stomach and super tired...but hey...small price to pay (although it is making me more and more convinced that we have more then one in there!) my u/s isn't until next monday so i still have a while to wait to find out...

Well I hope that you all had a great Easter! Ashley it was great to hear from you!

Robyn that is great news! It looks like things are on the right track! does that mean that your next beta is on thursday? did they give you the go ahead to book your ultrasound? It is hard to say when I started to feel preggers...because I was so convinced that i was not! i started cramping very early, that has gone away pretty much now. minus some lower back pain. I started to feel sick in the last week, which would have been week 5-6. sore boobs pretty much all though, although there are times that it is worse than others. - but they are definitely swollen. it is so hard to say what is what because of the progesterone...so are you on the suppositories now? It feels like my ultrasound is sooooo far away!

Courtney where are you? I am dying to know how your other betas are looking?

ckl,
she said we'd know more on thursday, but when alice called she suspected that it'd be after the 26th. when did they let you make your appt? i did have low back pain, that comes and goes and my boobs are sore off and own, but I am like you- it could be the progesterone. i think i am in shock that after all this time, i am finally pg and it is progressing. i am cautiously optimistic, but hopeful! I decided to stay on the PIO it is easier and less messy!

your ultrasound is the 10th, tomorrow, right? i bet it does!! What time will it be?

Robyn! Sooo happy for you! Things are going in the right direction! Woo Hooo

Sassy: Sorry no appt for me tomorrow. Good Luck fingers crossed for you! BFP BFP

CKL: My big prego lady! How are you? So U/S is Monday

This is going to be the loooongest week of my life. My husband is so stressed out. He is not sleeping. He just wants the blood tests back before he can calm down. Sigh. I have been really tired my boobs are sore on and off and I have terrible heart burn which I never get. Is tums ok if I am pregnant?

Love You Ladies
