Well I was convinced that this wasn't going to work this time around..but I read a post on here..under Pregnant After Treamtment and their was a woman (sorry I forgot her name) who transferred I think 3 grade D & 1 Grade F, and I think 1 ended up taking and split..another had only one grade C transfer.
I need to be more positive..this just might work!
Christin I know what you mean about the stretching thing...hurts me too! Today, when I was stretching my legs, my uterus was feeling very painful and is very stretched..especially this last day... I am hoping this is a good thing? I would imagine that I would be feeling nothing, if the little embryo's didn't make it? I don't know......
Good to hear everyone is doing just fine. Can't write personals right now, I am in pain, my lower abdominal area is sour.
Update - ET done....reports were much better than last times....presence od my DH has worked well...I hope it continues this way.
I had 13 out of 15 eggs mature, 8 of them fertilised, 3 transfered and 5 frozen!!
I am really hoping our dear Dex, lala, kelley, Christin to lead us through with BFP's ....Carolyn when is your test day, mine is 29/09/07
Lots of Baby Dust to all!!
Take care and rest well!!!
I'm here and have been down since yesterday. Yesterday afternoon I started getting cramps and I too started conviencing myself that AF was coming. I lost it in the car while driving home. I had ER two weeks ago today so it really scares me that I haven't felt anything until the cramps yesterday afternoon. I'm still having them today too although I'd say they haven't been as bad as normal.
I broke down and went and bought 2 HPT tests last night although I haven't done one yet. I'm SO scared for the result and keep thinking through my next step. I know it's not over yet but it's hard to think positively. I haven't seen any brown spotting yet but the cramps are scaring me. I think the biggest reason I didn't take the HPT test is because my DH is out of town until late tonight and I didn't want to have to deal with the results by myself this morning and then have to come into work with red eyes.
I have also felt the pain in my uterus when I strech too much but I haven't thought much about it.
I have a baby shower to go to after work tonight and most people there don't know a thing about what I'm going through and I'd really like to keep it that way. I'm afraid to talk about it because I don't know the outcome. I hope close friends who I haven't told will forgive me for the little white lies I've been telling. I know questions just come out of concern but right now I'd rather not talk about it.
Just a few more days until my test (and Dexter's). Only 3 nights!

Officially on the 2WW now - had 2 embies transferred - 1 grade 1 and 1 grade2 ( 1 being best!) really chuffed - in quite a bit of pain at moment - got a titlted womb and had to use biggest clamp you ahve ever seen (TMI I know) to get embies into mummys tummy
This morning, I took some time to research on pains/cramps associated with implantation. I would say that I am quite convinced that we are feeling exactly that. So, we should really stop worrying as embies won't like it in there.
Dexter sweetie, where are you? Haven't seen you all morning. How are you doing? Please give us an update asap, ok?
sonu911 3 embies!!! That's way too cool! I am so happy for you! Did you and your DH get to see the embies (on photo of course) before putting them in???
Carolyn Welcome to our 2ww group. It won't be long now before we announce our BFPs one by one. I am just so excited. Take it easy for the next few days, gal.

I love the PMA and information that lala shared with us! I think she is on target. I think the stretching and aching is all implantation and we are going to have our BFPs soon. Only think positive gals!

Wasn't going to post this but after reading your msgs of support and dear Kelly's msg, I thought it might offer some help. I'm going crazy here..
OK here goes...
I have had awful cramping for 2 days..sharp stabbing in lower uterus and same kind of AF pains which started 2 days ago on Thursday. I have been very down about this and even had a sip of wine last night, thinking everything was over. I told DH when he got home from work last night that I thought I was overdosing on the progesterone and that I didn't think my body liked it and he said to me go and do a HPT first thing tomorrow (due date for AF). I told him I was too scared but we made a pact. If it came back negative, I would stop the progesterone and have all day to cry at home.
So this morning, I'm sorry to say girls, I caved in and went and bought that HPT. I had been so strong up until now.
2 PINK LINES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was shaking like a leaf. It's been 2 weeks and 2 days since my trigger shot. It was a high sensitive HPT (test 5 days before type). Could it still be the HCG left over from trigger? Now I am off on a whole new rollercoaster. I have been here before ladies and am still skeptical.. Just waiting for the blood to arrive but HEY the little blastocyst at least implanted!!
Kelly, I can't tell you what's best but I had to share this with you so it lifted your spirits. I think this is a good sign ladies!
Me personally, would never normally post this but I know if it all goes arse up, I can post here and you will all be my support. I am so scared after my natural pregnancy which dispelled at about 5 weeks.
Bring on the cramps ladies OK?
Pls pray for me too. Stay boy stay! I am so happy and so damned frightened. I'm also worried that it's a false positive but DH will NOT let me do any more tests. Last time I drove myself mad with those sticks. 2 more sleeps til the beta. H E L P !!!!!!!!!!

Hey Dexter
What fab news - can't do all this fancy stuff - but well done to you both - there was someone on july/august thread who had same symptoms as you and she got a BFP too -0 shee even put a photo of HPT showing positive on board
take care and relax
off for another rest now - will do some personals later - god i never knew i could sleep so much
Secound, I'm glad I'm not the only one that caved into the HPT. My husband got home from his business trip last night and I showed him that I bought the two pack HPT, it also said that you could test up to 5 days before expected period.
My ER was two weeks ago yesterday so expected period was yesterday and I was sure it was going to come after all the cramping I had on Thursday and Friday morning. At first my husband was mad and told me I better not take the test but I told him that I had read the HCG shot should be out of my system because it has not been 2 1/2 weeks and that I wanted to take it Saturday morning. I told him I wanted him to be here for the results good or bad and that's why I waited until he was home and so he said ok.
So this morning I took the test first thing and the 2nd pink line showed up within secounds. Could it be that I'm really pregnant? My BB are not as sore as they were last week and I really don't feel pregnant. So I'm really trying not to get too excited until it's confirmed with the blood test on Monday. I'm really trying not to think about it much but at least my mind is at ease.
I think about all of you everyday!
Lots of love

Kelly BFP #2!!!!! Our group is kicking butt...I am so so happy! I wish I were at your stage, I would love to take a pregnancy test, but today makes 10 days from my trigger shot. I get to take my blood test on Wedneday the 19th, so I need to just wait for that...but yall are making this really really hard for me.
Today I have been feeling weak and shakey and now I feel a bit nauseous (spelling?). I got up to take a shower around 10:30am, and was light headed while i was standing in the shower. Since I have officially completed 3 full days of bed rest, I thought it would be okay for me and DH to go out for a quick lunch. Afterwards we walked through an antique Indian shop (really cool stuff from India), and I started feeling really weak. I don't know what my deal is. I am assuming it is hormones because I know it isn't lack of nutrition, as I have not missed a single meal (or snack for that matter)..LOL. Has anyone else felt weak?
Okay...the rest of us...Kelley, Sonu911, lala, and Wishfull27 our day is close...we are almost to the victory line!
Well I am off to rest some more..I feel exhausted and nauseous (spelling).
