Hey Angie -

Sorry you're still feeling icky. After my first ER, I spent 2 days in bed. So you're definitely a trooper for being up and at 'em today! I planned to stay out after my 2nd too, but ended up going in to work - but - who can concentrate on work-stuff when you're waiting for that call?!?!!! Hopefully they'll call sooner than later. My office always calls between 1230pm and 4pm - and I hate it when they call later in the day!

Good luck getting your Christmas stuff put away in a nice, organized fashion before the ET - hope you FEEL like doing it - otherwise, you may be left with dh's idea of organization! Too bad you can't diet, since you're so motivated - since you can't, you can send your motivation my way!! I could use it! I feel like since I only have a few weeks, what's the point?! But I also know that, hey, I only have a few weeks - better get crackin'!!

Sending a TON of PMA your way and to Steph!! Lots of strong little embies!!! Image

i've said it before, and i'll say it again......you guys (gals) are the BEST!!! (as tina turner once said!!! :wink: )

nope -- notta word yet on my footie team!! would LOOOOVVVVE a footie TEAM at this stage -- let me tell ya!!! after all we go thru to GET to this point, it would be nice.....is only 11am'ish my time and if same as last time - it will be afternoon (2-4pm'ish) before i hear anything......seriously sucking to be me right now!!!!

hope --- yer funny!! your logic sounds freakishly like mine!!! you know the whole "why bother, only a few weeks" -- that is SO me!!! i was a total PIG thru entire holiday season w/ the whole logic of "why bother being good when i'll be soon-enough eating for 2 anyway"!!!!! gee - maybe that sheds some light on why i can't get into any of my damn jeans!!!!!!! ACTUALLY - i'm hoping that similar thing will happen to me as this one "multiples" program i watch on TLC (the learning channel) -- i think is called "quint-essential".....LOVE IT....but yeah, they did the whole infertility thing - ended up w/ FIVE and she now can't get into her pre-pregnancy clothes cuz she is SMALLER now than before!!! :shock: WTF???!!!!!! how does somebody get that lucky??? i'm pretty sure that my ass found all of what she lost!!! ha, ha ,ha!!! :P :P :P

oh yeah -- speaking of being envious.......so i'm laying there yesterday while dh was off doing his porn star thing (ha-ha) and the gal and her hubby are in room (only a curtain separating us) right next to me and cuz i have nothing better to do, am listening to their discussion w/ nurses and how she's all worried about OHSS cuz she has TWENTY FOLLIES!!! :shock: i wanted to just yell "*****"!!! :twisted: not that i ill-wish anybody in similar boat as me -- but in same sentence was talking about her other 3 children all conceived naturally!!!! brought a tear to my eye thinking -- gee, and i would give my left (or right) tit for just ONE!! :cry: i know envy won't get me anywhere...........i'm just boo-hooing -- you know, poor me......need to shake it off and be DAMN GRATEFUL that i got SEVEN BEAUTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wink:

Well ladies, I am going it at noon...in 40 minutes!!! I just HOPE it isn't TOO soon! I definitely am starting my surge. I have decently dark lines even after 3 POAS this morn. It is just so dang early for me...CD11! ARRGGHHH I hope I'm not jumping the gun, but when I look at the stick, it is definitely beginning! It may not be equally dark, like it is supposed to be, but usually I get the day of almost as dark, then the next day it is definitely as dark if not darker....but if that is the day tomorrow, it is too late for me! Last time I called on a day like this...the start of getting dark and went in the next day and got my BFP!!!

Well I need to run (ok well drive) to the clinic now! I will check in tonite after work (10:30ish) to see how it went Angie!!!

Wish me luck!!!!!!
Steph

Angie, can't wait to hear how many beauties fertilised. Sorry you felt crap after ER. Let us know as soon as you hear, ok. Hope the ET goes smoothly.

Steph, best of luck. Hope it all goes well today. Take it easy this weekend and make it easy for the swimmers do their job.

Becky, hope you're feeling ok after your operation.

Thanks to all you lovely ladies for the kind words and support. I feel so terrible. My bleeding has not stopped yet (7th day today), I've developed a cold and feel miserable both physically and emotionally. I feel so depressed (I guess the horrible weather does not help). I can't help but wonder if I will ever have children. I know some of you have been through an awful lot more than me, so sorry if I sound silly. I haven't touched a thing round the house, can't be bothered to do routine chores and feel like staying in my PJs and watch endless TV. I feel totally detached and disinterested in everything. I'm probably over reacting, right? I'm going to try and pull myself together even for DH.

Have a good weekend all!

OOO I cheated...work thinks I'm coming in a little late and I got back in time to chow down lunch and jump on the board! They said all looks like I am Oing...CM looks good (sorry if TMI). So hopefully those sticks aren't lying and the big man upstairs is on my side and didn't want me to miss this month!!!! Thanks Big Guy! Image

Angie- OMG that totally cracked me up the part where you wanted to yell B!%#C thru the curtain...ok not that you HAD to listen to the converstation, but that I totally would feel that way too! But PLEASE don't give your right (or left tit) you may need them when if you decided to BF this little BFP!!!! Good luck on getting the Christmas stuff put away HAHA...I'm gonna try to do mine next week to keep me busy, but then again we shall see, I HATE putting it away!!! I mean I have to keep it up til the Epiphany (the day the Wise Guys showed up)...well ok, so that is just my excuse! At least I'm not one of those people who still have their Christmas wreath on the door in AUGUST!!! Oh and my test day would be the 18th...but HAHA like I'm gonna make it that long! PPPSSHH!

Angel- Oh hugs sweetie! I totally understand where you are right now. I would say I didn't stop spotting until about 2 weeks. Everyday it is a reminder, but like everyone says and you don't want to believe right now but it gets a little easier every day. You take your time though! Even for me something sparks the sadness (like being in the office today...omg last time I was here I got my D&C!). Honey, there is no overreacting!!! You do what you want now, you feel what you want now!!!! Big Hugs to you!!! Find the Golden Girls reruns...that will make you smile :)

Hope...you can have my energy (what little there is) if it helps you on your diet/exercise quest! I think it is a little defective though since it didn't motivate me all that much :roll:

Alright ladies, this time I should sign off and get my bootie to hell...uh work. I'm still checkin back tonite to hear Ang! Have you decided yet how many you are puting back home?

Steph

I'm sure the timing will be fine, its better to be early than late as the spermies live longer that the egg. They'll just be there ready and waiting.
10.30pm will be the middle of the night here so I'll check in tomorrow to see how you got on.

Angie - Still no news yet? Take it easy, hope you're feeling better soon.

Well, the work gossip! It turns out that she hadn't spread it very far at all but I found out she'd been told by one of my 'friends' who I'd trusted. They are both now feeling very ashamed and its definitely affected my relationship with them. I stayed very calm when I talked to them but let them know how upset I was. Oh well, its one of life's lessons - you get to know who you can trust :(
Anyway its all blown over now and gradually people are getting to know because I've said I'm happy for it to be discussed now. Everyone (well almost) has been lovely. I've worked there for nearly 20 years so some people know me pretty well. They've been through my marriage, divorce and years of being single with me and know how much I love children so mostly they're really happy for me.
The reaction of one colleague was so funny. She's the same age as me and also single but very religious and I don't think she approves. Her eyes nearly popped out of her head when she heard :lol:
When I started this I was a little worried about how people would react but I've had so many positive responses that I don't care anymore. If someone doesn't like it then its their problem, not mine, I've got enough support from my real friends.

I'm responsible for drawing up the weekend and evening working rotas at work and today have been trying to do the next 6 - 7 months. I suddenly realised that I'd put myself down for shifts in August and I won't be there by then. That was a weird feeling

su ---- how lovely that everyone is behaving and responding so well to your FAB news!!!!!!!!!!! always makes it SO much easier for you :-)

steph --- YEAH!!!! you are now officially "with sperm" --- ha, ha, ha, ha!! i started to type that you were officially "PUPO" -- like us IVF'ers are once we get embies put back --- but suddenly realized, not exactly the case w/ you IUI'ers!!! it's all good :wink: the good thing is, your swimmers are ON BOARD!!!!!!

just as i hit reply on this post --- my phone literally rang at that moment --- it was my nurse........we have FIVE FERTILIZED EMBIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and i'm ashamed to admit this - but you guys know before dh :oops: i was already here....figured i might as well finish my thoughts! and doc wants to do a 5 day (blast) transfer ----- so ET will be on tuesday ---- YEE-HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i've yet to decide how many to put back.........am hoping like the last time - the decision will kinda be made for us.....i.e. --- by the time tuesday rolls around, chances are likely that some will not have made it to blast stage, leaving only the bestest of the bunch ----- and if there are only 3 remaining --- then we will put all 3 back in.......if all 5 make it (or even 4) ----- then we'll probably do 2 with this round and have 2 frosties!! we'll see...........

steph --- leave the pee sticks alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (just thought i'd throw that out there........not that i seriously think for a MOMENT that she will) :wink: cuz for what its worth -- i do NOT plan to POAS!! they are EVIL!! :twisted:

bye-bye girly-girls!! talk more soon!!
