Hi ladies,just checking in...
Cramps light today, am very very nervous about tomorrow, I feel sick! Am trying to prepare myself in case it is bad news as don't want to be a jibbering wreck tomorrow if it is BFN... We have my step daughter this weekend and we haven't told her what is happening. This is so her mother doesn't know as she has made fun of me in the past about my 'inability to have children'... nice lady!!! So I will have to contain my feelings either way tomorrow so SD remains unaware.
I feel very tearful and emotional but it helps so much knowing you are all out there and understand...
How are you today Mlifp?
Are you ok mandyluckypants?
Schel67, I hope af settles down soon for you, it is not fair to get BFN and then have to have af on top of it all - nuts...
Mimi and Neeve - glad all is going well for you, this is exactly what it is all about - keep that light shining for us at the end of the tunnel

Thanks to all of you for posting about cramping, spotting, and even AF during 2ww! I was going a bit nuts this morning when I had a little spotting. This is my first ET and I didn't know what to expect. I am still nervous, but I know I am not alone in that.
Beta is on Monday and I have been going crazy waiting, second guessing symptoms and trying to guess whether they are from stiming, ER, ET, or possible early pregnancy signs. AHHHHH The list of things to obsess about during IVF just seems to get longer and longer!

Hi Ladies,
BFN for me too I'm afraid. I had half expected it but still disappointing. It's a long old emotional journey to end with nothing.
Thanks for you support, couldn't have got through the 2ww without you!
I'm back off to bed and then down the pub later...
Take care all of you...

Mlipf,
Initial implantation starts in the first week, but to my knowlegde the start is the embryo burying itself into the endometrium. I don't know for sure but I think it's this process that make us feel crampy, and possibly the the new growth of the placenta from the embryo. That's what I imagine it to be but I haven't found any documentation on what actually causes the cramping.
Try not to worry, I'll say a prayer for you.

Magic , I'm sorry for your news . Have a few drinks for me tonight . Keep possitive . Next time will be your turn .
Schel , Thank you for thinking of me and for sharing your wisdom . Two more days for me .
Welcome dream baby , I feel a little releif knowing I'll have someone else doing their test on the same day.
DH wants me to get a HPT to do tomorrow since Monday I'll be at work when I find out . He wants to know at the sametime . I told him maybe negative and then Monday positive and he's ok with that.
That way I can be miserable at home. He said if this doesn't work we will adopt and keep the frozen embryos just incase we change our mind in the future . He is soooooo awesome .
Neeve ,mimi , how you gals feeling? thank you for sticking around .

Magic - no words can help right now. Just know that you are not alone and you have many women who can identify and share your loss with you. Wishing you only the best in whatever your next step will be. Don't give up.
mlifp - He sounds like a great guy. Mine is as well, but My DH keeps telling me to resist the urge for a HPT and telling me to wait. I think he is equally concerned about a false + and false - (he has a chemistry background and only wants the REAL result). Also, he really believes that this is going to work, I hope he is right. I am working from home on Monday because good or bad I don't want to be around anyone when I hear the news, I know myself too well and I won't be able to hide my reaction.
DH has to go to work, but we are considering asking the nurse to hold and conference calling him in on a 3 way call before she tells us the results. That way we hear it at the same time. Do you have that capability? Do you work near each other? Another idea is that you may ask the nurse if she can give you a time, even if it is a little later so she knows she will have the results and meet for lunch or take a late afternoon lunch break to get the call together. If you tell her that you both have to be at work and are looking for a way to hear the news together she will probably help find a way.
Our first IVF we had zero fertilization. This time, we were sitting on the couch together when we got the fertilization call and we put it on speaker phone to hear the miraculous news together. The special moment is one we will both hold onto forever. I am getting all misty just thinking about it. I really hope we have another moment like that on Monday and am wishing the same for you and your DH as well.

Magic,
My heart goes out to you. I also know the overwhelming feeling of frustration and disapointment. Be good to yourself. Enjoy a relaxing hot bath and a glass of wine. If you need to cry, allow yourself that. Then pick yourself up and move forward. Find out from your RE why they think it didnt happen for your this time. Was it a difficult transfer? I don't remember, How many times is this for you now? I'm here for you if you want to share your story with me.
