Sorry to disappoint you all, but BFN for me :(
Pretty difficult to come to terms with, but I would def do the whole process again. We will just take some time to see how much our insurance covered and what we are able to deal with, financially.
I can't tell you how much all your support means to me. It is so wonderful to have a forum like this to share and help to keep us all sane.
The 2ww was difficult. I had many symptoms that you all had, whether BFN's or BFP's. So I guess it is all 50/50.
I will keep you all in my thoughts, and keep checking on you all.
All the best, and thanks again for the support!

Neffi211: Those are great numbers! Congrats and rest up!

Colesmom: Thanks for the good wishes. Good luck tomorrow for you!

Pricecake: Big hugs to you right now. I know how hard it is do deal with the disappointment that you put all this work and effort in and you didn't get a BFP.

PrincessB and ICSI: Congratulations to you both!!

TammyS: You are doing great and progressing along. I believe an E2 of 596 is good for a Day 6 reading. From what I have been reading it seems to be right in the middle.

Esperanza and Amy2410: Thank you for the well wishes! I was so excited at the ER this morning to have made it that far. We did have good news in that all 3 follicles had an egg. They will be calling tomorrow with the fertilization report. I am trying to not get too excited and set myself up for disappointment but am very hopeful that I will get one or two embies to put back on Tuesday. DH is scared to death that if we do have two to put back that it will be twins. We already have a 3 year old daughter so it would make for a houseful. LOL Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Girls, this 2ww is getting to me...I've read that women go nuts during this time, and for whatever reason I thought I was going to be alright. ha! how foolish I was.

I have TONS of work to do, but I can't seem to concentrate, all I can think of is my test day, do I have symptoms? is that good? is that bad? aaaaaahhhhhhh!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

I keep looking for stuff up on the internet when I know the answer. There's nothing at this stage that can tell me if it worked or if it didn't. Right? after all the progesterone shots give me all those symptoms, and some women don't even feel a thing.

esperanza and washingtonda,
It was really hard during the 2ww. I had lots of highs and lows. The best thing you can do is pray absout it and let it go. I read something from Joel Osteen that said when you pray for something you should expect it. That's what God wants of us is to have faith. That helped me alot when I was waiting. I did pray a whole lot.

Have either of you done an hpt? how many days past r u now?
