That is great news danyel, when are you due to go back for your ET? Are they going to call you tomorrow to let you know how they are doing?

It's fabulous to have 10, lots of baby dust to them so they grow big and strong :lol:

Hi Ladies! Well, I had my ET today. We had 3 embryos - 2 8-cell and 1 5-cell, so we transferred all 3. Beta results will be on 11/21. :D :D :D :D

Danyel, that's great that you have 10 fertilized! How many do you think you will transfer, and when will your ET be?

Nicaliw - Good luck with ET tomorrow! I'll be thinking 'bout ya! :D

Magic Magin, Ann D and Anie - how's the 2ww going? You all hanging in there ok? When do you test?

Lots n lots of babydust to all of you! Sorry if I forgot anyone....

I hope you're all doing great and those already in the 2ww are not going crazy yet. I have my ET this afternoon, I can't seem to feel excited though cause I'm really uncomfortable again. I don't know what I did wrong, I thought I was over the worst and feeling better so now I'm thinking they'll suggest we don't do the transfer when they see how uncomfortable I am. Who knows, I guess we'll see in a few short hours. Either way, I will keep my chin up, still have several great looking embies and feel very blessed.

I'm almost done with the doctor's bed rest order. Can't wait to be able to move around a little bit more.

I have a couple of questions... what is a beta test?? Is that the same as a regular preg test? Also, are there any kind of negative signs that I should be looking for? Or positive signs?? I keep hearing different things about symptoms.

Good luck nicaliw with your ET. I'm sure everything will be fine. And hope the time goes by quickly for everyone. MagicMagin, your time is almost up! Good luck!!!

I had my ET this afternnon of 2 apparently great looking blastocycts. It was a breeze, thought it was going too hurt. Now I just get to lay around and wait! Glad everyone is doing well! Fingers crossed for lots of bfp's. My beta is on Thanksgiving!

ann d a beta is the beta hcg blood test that is a preg test way more reliable and sensitive than a urine hpt. Most pepole agree you shouldn't completely trust the hpt this early for 2 reasons 1. If you test too soon you can get a false positive from the HCH trigger shot that takes about 2 weeks to get out if our blood. 2. Sometimes the beta hcg reveals a positive test when you hpt was not sensitive enough to test positive.

As far as symptoms, this is just my opinion but I wouldn't focus too much on any symptoms because each symptom can mean more than one thing. You could drive yourself crazy guessing.
