I requested that an ultrasound be done to make double sure the lining was where it was supposed to be.
What is the protocol for you guys? Just curious.
Also, good luck to all of you that are having your FET's this week. I will have you in my thoughts and prayers.
Baby wishes to all!
I have 2 blood tests and 1 ultrasound (possibly a 2nd one) it depends on my blood test results. I thought for sure everyone did one to measure the lining.. Im not 100% certain though. Ive noticed some girls on here have different things going on as well..

Hi there everyone!

Baby08 - My RE did a baseline U/S and E2 B/W - then an U/S 1 week prior to transfer to check the lining? Not sure why yours isn't checking the lining? I would call them and ask???

Mrs. G ~ 16 more days to go...YAY. I have to admit, these weeks have been the longest of my life. However, I bet the 2ww will be even longer.

Michael ~ I don't have a lot of advice. I wish I did. FET is all so new to me. The only thing I am going to do is take it easy the day of transfer. Good luck to you guys though. Post after transfer and let us know how it goes. 5 more days for you two!

Ambrosine ~ Are you going to transfer all 3 embies? How many did you transfer the first time around. I am praying for BFP's for everyone here! Wouldn't that be wonderful!

Melissa, Branbree, Donna & Jesjes ~ Where'd you go?

Good luck everyone!

Here i am! I've been waiting for the nurse to send my calendar of events to me so I can post them for everyone. Thursday (tomorrow) I have to start back on BCP :twisted: and aygestin again. I think I stop taking both of them around Dec. 20th and then on to the good stuff. I should be getting my agenda before the end of the week...i'll post it then! I am soooo nervous!! My anxiety levels are through the roof!!!

I am still here, I was waiting for tomorrow to update since I go in for final scan before FET on tuesday (12/4). CD 14 here and have so much estrogen flowing through me I could scream - LOL I forgot how these drugs make me moddy as all heck! Will update tomorrow !

Glad to see everyone is still chucking along. I guess with FET's we are all more low key this time!

Can we do a list of all of us so I can keep track of when we all go. I'll be glad to start one if nobody minds.

Hi girls~ I am only off the couch for a few minutes to update you all.

Well.....they thawed 2 good embies. One came back perfect, the other didn't take to thawing very well. Half of the shell was gone because of the ice and it was flat? So they thawed another - but lower quality embie - which came back well. In the end, they transfered all three. The embryologist said they wanted to give me the best chance without giving me triplets. My bladder wasn't full, so they had to give me more and more water and I peed like 4 times on the way home. My test date will be the 11th - but I will be POAS many times before then.

So....pray for me ladies. I want at least one to stick. Back to the couch for me, I will catch up later. Also, thank you so much for all the well wishes. You don't know how much I appreciate it.

Hi everyone~

Michael ~ Good luck to you and your wife Monday!

Jessica ~ Good luck to you on your transfer Tuesday.

Praying for sticky embies for both of you. Don't forget to update us after your transfer.

Glad to hear how everyone else is doing. I know we don't get much info on a FET cycle, but I am happy to hear updates.

As for me...I was back to normal activity yesterday. My RE's office only says bed rest first 24 hours. I still took it easy though. I don't have any sore BB's or anything yet. I would think the progesterone would at least cause them to be sore at this point??? I am having some slight cramping off an on, but who knows. I am already testing with cheap .99 tests and I am stocked up with FRER. I will probably start testing with them soon. I am technically 2dp 4dt. So 6 dpo. I know it is too early for a +, but I think I told all of you in the past I am a POAS addict. I want to know as soon as I possibly can.

Have a wonderful weekend. How many days are everyone else's embies at transfer, 3 or 5?? I think my RE's office is the only one who does a 4 day transfer.
