thank you so much for the congrats ladies. my hope now is that you all follow and get your bfp's! my son was the first i told and he just laughed...i thought, you don't even know what's going to hit you. he'll love it though.

wannabeamomma, hang in there...it goes by so slowly, but it does come. take it as easy as you can and talk to the embies...tell them to stay put. :D

fullofhope, so happy to hear your et went well and that your injections are better. when exactly is your test date?

great news fhl! i know that it feels like forever away, but it isn't and you can take this time to refocus and commit yourself to this process because that's what it is a process and it's long and heartbreaking and rewarding...just keep the faith, hope and love ( :wink: ) and you'll get your baby, i just know it.

OK. I'm so annoyed.
Hormone levels aren't ready to start stims...I won't start stims until Tuesday, which means everything probably gets pushed back, which means I'll have to take off more work b/c it won't be over Thanksgiving break.
Everything was working out perfectly timing-wise...now it sucks!

I know it is what it is, but I'm annoyed.

updated: ok...not as annoyed any more. No point being annoyed. I've come up with the necessary lies if need be. I'm decreasing my Lupron starting tonight. I don't know if this means I'll still stim for 10-12 days or if it'll be less since I'm already decreasing the Lupron. I go back to RE next Friday so we'll know more then in terms of follicles and timing.

stephanievt97, i know it's hard when things in this process get set back, it is SO frusterating, but try to remember everything happens for a reason. you've waited so long...try to stay focused on the prize!

wannabeamomma, just a few more days, how are you feeling? i'll be thinking of you, let us know asap.

how is everyone else feeling?

Good Morning!!
Looks like everyone is moving right along here, as for me I started my BCP the other day which still seems humerous to me, and me and DH are definetely trying to think positive for the next go around.

How's it going Melinda? Hope the spotting disappeared! I am sure that was quite a worry for you

Mimi so do you think more than one implanted?? How exciting!

stephanievt97 I know how frustrating that can be!! Just remember the drs. know what is best, and it'll all work out for the best for you! Tuesday will be here before you know it! Let us know your progress!

fullofhope-you're half way to testing day!!! Hopefully one (or both) of your lil' embies stuck!

wannabemomma--Hope your 2ww is going well, you're almost done!! Can't wait until test day!!!
Hope you all have a great weekend!!!!!! :D

Hi ladies,
I hope everyone is doing well this weekend. As for me the 2ww has made me a ball of nerves. I have ups and downs and all sorts of emotions. I have been cramping and spotting the last couple of days which really frieks me out! I know they say it can be normal but I feel like a/f is taunting me. :cry: I just want this wait to be over. Sorry about the rant I am just going bananas. Still trying to stay positive but have my breakdown moments. :roll:


Babydust to all!

wannabeamommma! oh, no i think the spotting should be a good sign, implantation bleeding. has af ever taunted you before? i don't think so. wow, lay low and talk to the embie!

fhl, glad to hear things are moving right along. you and dh are right to stay positive! great attitude. no, i don't think 2 implanted. i think i was wishful thinking in a way, but the more i think about it, the more i think no.

i don't have any symptoms at all! i so wish i did, then i would feel pregnant, but i dont and i am scared. i had a dream last night that i started spotting, so it's obviously on my mind quite a bit. can't wait until the u/s, just to see if things are where they should be.

hope you all are hanging in there.

Just dropping by, my test date is on Sunday....the proges. shots are horrible! I'm also still really bloated and sore, my Dr. said that I had a little over stimulation going on, I just hope the swelling will go down soon. Have any of you had some over stim. before? How long before the swelling goes down? If it was going to get worst, would it have happened already? My ET was a week ago......I just want it to be over :cry: :cry:
