April Cycle Buddies- Come Join the fun!!!

[vicky77]

Ohh Donna dear, I feel so bad for your news, I know exactly how you feel, I also had an m/c back in December, it was very sad, but you know what.......you can overcome everything in life. At that time I thought that was the worst thing and that I couldn't go on with my life, but then I realized that I was lucky that I have a wonderful family and a loving DH and that was the only thing that mattered to me. You will see that with time your wound will heal and you will be able to start a new cycle and have your baby, just let time heal the wounds.........I wish you the best and I am here for anything you might need....

Christine....I am so sorry about your Dad, cancer is such an evil illness, but the most important thing is that he doesn't suffer, and by the way you talk about him (which was beautiful) I know there is a beautiful family taking care of him and giving him lots of love......Good luck on your scan on Wednesday, keep us posted!!!!

Daly.....good luck on thursday, hope you don't get too moody with Lupron

Jovi, Smartie, Geckogirl and Karia, how are the 2ww'ers??....I see you opened your own thread there, that was amazing, I know how the 2ww can eat you up inside!!!!. Hope you are all doing ok!!. Keep us posted!!!

Well, I am on BCP's already, I am starting Lupron on 05/25 (while I am on vacations in Argentina) and then go back to the clinic on 06/01 for my baseline to start stims, so we are moving right along!!!. On my scan the other day I had approx. 24 follies, so hopefully next cycle I will have as much and will be able to have lots of embies!!!!!!

Wish you all the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and lots of BFP's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Charlie - Thank you so much for keeping the progress list so wonderfully great! Hope you are doing well.

geckogirl - Hoping the cramping is a really good sign. Praying for much Sticky Angel Dust for you! Hang in there! Sorry about your losing your dad in the past. I'm truly hoping it's something minor - not this. He wasn't supposed to see his Oncologist again until July - but now he is seeing him on Thursday. We are praying for the best. Wishing you and DH much success!

I hope all of you lovely ladies are doing well. Sending Baby Angel Dust to all of you!

Love,
Christine

Donna, I am so sorry. (((HUGS))). I m/c early Feb at 8 wks and thought I was going to loose my mind. But slowly and surely, I started feeling better. I went back to the office full swing for about 2 weeks and staying busy helped lots. Although, you do need to grieve also, I know. About telling everyone, I did the same thing. once I found out that I m/c, I locked myself in my bedroom and refused to talk on the phone to anyone till I was ready. I let DH tell most of them or told a friend to tell the others. It will get better, I promise!

[geckogirl]

Donna - I am so sorry! There really are no word other than to say we are all here for you. ((((hugs))))


Vicky - Glad you are getting started again! Much luck to you.

Christine - Let us know how your dad is doing. Perhaps it will be a false alarm. I am praying for you.

Well, I finally gave in and took the dreaded HPT. BFN...... Haven't told DH yet. Probably won't. The beta is on Thursday and then we can make a post consult appt with our doctor and see what to do from here. Kinda want to try donor eggs but my embies this time were really good and it still didn't work. Not sure I want to spend the money on a small chance.

Hope everyone is doing well. Take care.

Vicky - Thanks so much for your kind thoughts. I've always been close with my Dad and I'm praying for the best. Also - I want to wish you a wonderful trip to Argentina! I hope to share my results with you tomorrow - but if I don't chat with you before your trip - hope you have a safe and fun trip! Take Care!

geckogirl - Praying for a strong BFP on Thurs for you! Hoping the HPT's have been wrong! Keep your hopes up - we're all praying for you! Keep us posted.

Susan - Glad you had a good camping trip. Praying that your lining gets nice and thick for your FET on Sat. Keep in touch.

I hope everyone else is doing well. I need to go to bed now since I was up at 5am with so much worry in my heart and on my mind - plus this little wonder inside me is making me hungry all the time. I lost my appetite when pregnant with our DD. I have my scan in the early morning so I will post when I get back home. Hopefully it's good news. Much Baby Angel Dust to all of you lovely ladies.

Love,
Christine

hey gals, i had posted this on another thread but wanted to share with my friends here also...

Hey gals. Well, I decided to buy some hpts so I did my "control" test yesterday to make sure the hcg was gone out of my system and it is now. Soooo, I may test again Friday morning. I'm not feeling as positivie this time as compared to last. Although I did feel some 'twinges' alittle bit the past 2 days, I've not had the groin pain, like a muscle pulled like I did before. But, honestly, I'm ok if it doesn't work. I've got so much to be thankful for. Life could be so much different for us but we are blessed... I think we all get so wrapped up in this IVF craze that we forget how lucky we really are. For some reason, when we start the IVF process, it's like the IVF demon takes over our bodies and that's all we can think about and live for, but it's not. Just a thought for today, think about how blessed you are, be thankful for every healthly breath you take, be thankful for life itself...... ( I just feel so devotional today and wanted to share....)

Hi Ladies,

Just wanted to update you all on my 1st Ultrasound today. We have 1 little beanie with a heartrate of 120bpm! Everything looked good and the RE was very pleased. I go back on May 30th for my final scan if that's looks good then they will release me to my OB. I have my first OB appt sched for June 14th. And I get to stop taking the Progesterone IM shots and start taking pills. We are happy and relieved. Hope you all are doing as well as can be expected. Take Care!

Love,
Christine

Hi everyone, I've been out for a bit and getting ready to start the dreaded lupron. REally hoping my mood holds on through this down regging.

Donna - Senidng you more huge hugs. I know you said you're hoping to get going again and we'll will be right here with you. Getting pregnant on htis first go was amazing and you will do great with your next cycle. When is your consultation? Like I said, we'll have beautiful spring baby girls together.

Vicky - I'm right ahead of you starting Lupron by one week, I think. Have a great time in Argentina! I have a friend who's heading there this summer. For now I'll send you're eggs a lullaby, and then it's back to work for our ovaries

Geckogirl - Sending you huge hugs for the horrible grief this process causes, but, like Susan said, it is still early and those pee sticks are notorious for false negatives. So, I'm still sending you enormous sticky baby vibes and saying extra prayers for you. All fingers and toes crossed.
(you're so like me though, I ususally have my next cycle planned half-way during my current cycle. Can never be prepared enough for this ever joyful experience of infertitliy)

Christine - I'm sending prayers to your dear father. I'm so sorry to hear the news. Huge hugs to you. Congratulations on your beautiful scan!!! That is such an amazing site.

Susan - Grow lining grow!! That is our goal for my next cycle. To get a thick lining. Sending prayers to your little beanie-cycles. They'll be back warm with mommy so soon.

JOvigal - Thank you for sharing your beautiful words. Sending you babydust! When do you officially test?

Charlie - huge hugs to you my dear. Thinking of you all the time.

[vicky77]

Christine......congratulations!!!!!!, you must be on cloud 9 right now, it must be such a relief to see the HB!!!!. Congratulations again and enjoy!!!, send congrats to your DH as well!!!

Geckogirl.....good luck tomorrow with your beta!!!!, don't trust those HPT's, I heard too many stories of ladies having negative HPT's even the day of the test and then having positive tests, so hang in there!!! (anyway what a nerve do I have to tell you this myself )

Susan.....I will do my GROW LINING GROW dance for you , hope it helps!!!!!

Jovigal....good luck with your HPT on Friday!!!, will be thinking about you!!!!!!

Daly....you are my cycle buddy, so we have only a week difference in our cycles??, that's great, so we are not alone!!!. Good luck with your Lupron, hope your mood behaves!!!!

As per me, I am getting ready for my trip to Argentina, I'll be there for 10 days, but they will fly I guess, so sad, since I would like to stay more so I can see my friends a bit more....oh well.
