Hi Ladies thanks for all the kind words. An update on me still feeling the little twinges and tweeks every now and then and the occassional larger cramp. I've had no spotting or bleeding yet but I am only on day 28 of my cycle and I'm sure everything is messed up due to all the hormones and the current PIO shots. Just a few more days and we'll know for sure, the waiting is the worst but I just keep reminding myself it's going to be whatever it is and there is nothing I can do to change it, just hopeing for the best. Feel like AF could arrive any day though. Anyone have crampy like sharp pains really low while during their 2 ww?

PrincessB-- Good Luck with the natural cycle!! I'm hopeing this will work for you.

Kellym- That's fantastic won't be long and we'll be hearing your BFP

wannabeamomma- Thank you so much for your kind words. I had to go buy baby stuff today for my sister shower while it was exciting I'm trying to stay grounded and know that it may not be so I'm not totally crushed. I can't wait to hear your BFP

Vickersx- I hope both you and your DH are hanging in there, it won't be long now.

Wishing everyone I mised the very best!!

Baby Dust to All!!!!

Hello everyone!

I am a newbie to this group, just wanted to be a member of this exciting group..My DH have blocked sperm, but have gone thru biopsy last time and luckily we have sperm freezed already, I have PCO that is why I also have to be treated. I am currently on my Gonal F injections for 5 days and will be back on wed.The doctor told me based on my last scan that I have tendecy of hyperstimulation,(do I have to be afraid of these?) dont know really what to feel..I am just waiting for my next scan coz doc said that will determine if I am ready for EC.

Hope all of us will get BFP...

Hi Everyone,
I am feeling down this morning. Just got the call from the lab with my updated fertilization report. They told me that I still have 6 embryos but as of today (day 2) 4 are 2-cell and 2 are 4-cell. I did a quick search on the net and found that 2-cell are considered slow at this stage. Since it was our last chance with my eggs we were really hoping that we'd get 3 transferred and three frozen to try in a natural cycle if this one doesn't work. Now I even wonder whether we should freeze any of them. Man do I hate this.
I am not even in my 2ww and already I am feeling down.
Sorry no personals today, just feeling so lousy.
Kelly

Tilly-I am feeling the cramping. I feel like a/f is just arounf the cornoer. Unforturntly I am having the spotting and all the normal a/f signs for me.....Hang in there I read all this is normal...not that it helps put our mind at ease...

Luckily, in a few more days we will know.

Kelly-Don't give up my Re told me of a lady that had 1 embie. It was a 4-cell grade 3. That lady is now a proud momma of a 1 yr old girl. Don't give up. They just need to cook where they belong.

Roxwell-Welcome!

Hope everyone lese is doing fine...Babydust to all!

I just realized that we have three testing on the same day! How exciting is this?!? You guys hang in there.

Did anyone spot during their cycle? I was spotting day 7 and 8 after the hgc shot. Could that be implantation spotting or am i reaching?

Kelly, our clinic wont even freeze embyos unless they make it to blastocyst stage. Thats why we didnt have any to freeze. We had one that made to blastocyst but was grade E and they said it wouldnt make through the thawing process. Does your clinic allow freezing of certain stage embryos?

kellym · Post by **kellym** » Mon Nov 12, 2007 5:19 pm

Our clinic will freeze embryos at day 3 but I am not sure what their minimum cell/grade count must be. We are thinking that we'll just transfer them all since it is unlikely that the slower embryos would be in good shape after freezing anyway. I guess I will find out tomorrow.

Hi!
Well, we had our transfer today - they transferred all 6. We were joking that we have our hockey team (we are Canadian) on board!! I am feeling much more positive today. They transfer 2 8-cell grade 1 (one was already compacting), 1 8-cell grade 2, 1 5-cell grade 2, 1 4-cell grade 2 and 1 3-cell grade 2. So, at least we have a few in there that are in good shape!!! I am hoping and praying that this is lucky #8 for us! We'll be away on a holiday the week of our beta so hopefully we can be celebrating on our holiday!

Hope everyone is going really well!

Kelly: Wow 6 embies??? 4 of those HAVE to stick

Good luck!!

Wannabe: I am just wondering how your feeling (cramps/spotting)

As far as us, we are just waiting and waiting and waiting. I am even having dreams now. They were about to tell us the results and the dog jumped on the back door and woke me up....stupid mutt!! Stacy left the bed last night and laid on the couch. She was up and down all night with cramping. Today though they were nothing. She is having discharge but she says it is creamy/milky white. That sounds like ovulation to me, but who knows.

It amazes me that all this comes down to one single day. I feel like even if it is a bfn I wont believe it. How can you test 9 days after transfer and be sure they implanted. I have read where it can take 6-12 days!!

Best of wishes to everyone.

Frank

Kelly-6 embies? You are on your way to your own Brady Bunch.

Vickers-Cramping has subsided but still spotting off and on. I can't sleep either-this waiting gives one insomnia. I won't even know the answer on Thursday until about 6:30 at night after I get home from work. I am having them call dh so I don't have a nervous breakdown at work.

Tilly-How are you doing? We are almost there. Are you feeling anyhthing?

Well I hope everyone else is okay. I'm just sitting here watching the clock go tic, tic, tic. Babydust to all!

tilly3709 · Post by **tilly3709** » Wed Nov 14, 2007 3:06 pm

Only one more day!! This has seemed like the longest two weeks of my life.

Wannabeamomma- not feeling alot some twinges and AF like syptoms occassionally. I'm trying not to try and read into every little twinge or cramp. I have to wonder if I wasn't hopeing to be pregnant would I feel any of it at all. Well, we will find out tommorrow, I should have my results by mid afternoon. I hope you get your BFP!!

vickersx- we are almost there only 1 more sleep for you too!! Sticky BFP vibes to you!!!

kellym[/b- Congratulations it sounds like you are on your way to a BFP!!

danyel-Welcome to the board. I'll keep my fingers crossed for your embies.

PrincessB- How are you?

roxwell- Welcome to the board and good luck with your cycle.

Sorry for everyone I forgot.

Sending Sticky baby dust to all!!!!

Hi everybody.

Sorry i was away all these days..but for a good cause.

I had my transfer on day3 sunday. The embryologist rang me on sunday morning saying that they've got 2 beautiful embryos and should not wait till day5. We tranfered 2 because they were the best ones. The other 10 stayed to see if they can make it to blastocyst.

From sunday till yesterday i was at home relaxing.Actually first day was alright but second day was so BORED!!!
I was so bloated that none of my trousers would fit me!

On tuesday they rang saying that only 2 have survived to blastocyst;1 is good quality and the other is not so good but they will freeze both of them.

I've noticed that i have lost my appetite.

Anybody feeling the same way???

The 2ww are like eternity!

Happy 2ww to my buddies and happy cycle to the rest of you.

Anie

PS- TEST DAY 22nd NOV
