I have the stomach flu bad...I am only jumping on for a second. I am going back to bed. My DH has had it for 3 days now, too. I did take another test a little bit ago and my HCG is going up since the line is darker today. Hope everyone else is okay. I hope to be back on more tonight.

Hi everyone.

Good news. I had my first scan today and no OHSS so far. Though i have only been stimming for 5 days. I have Still got another week to go. Had 7 follies on left and just three on right. Total opposite to last time. But hoping for the best. Better just a few than to many.

Hi everyone! So I the Dr. has doubled my stims from 76 to 150. I guess they didnt see much progress this morning. I go again on Monday.

I did my first set of acupuncture today- kind of crazy, I admitt, but overall not so bad.

Dawn31: I am so glad to hear no OHSS, that is my biggest fear right now! Let me know how it keeps going!

Sage: good luck with everything. Keep positive thoughts and get ready to be a mommy!!

Cookinggirl: I did get bloated, and I bruised a few times on Gonal-F. My husband also drew blood a few times, but nothing really hurt. I had a few nights where it iched and burned after it was in, but that only lasted about 20 min, and again didnt really "hurt".

Everyone else- good luck and lots of baby dust!!!!

Am 2 days after my final beta was scheduled and wondering if I am fooling myself... I do feel achy down there as though AF getting ready :( Any thoughts?? Should I just poas today and put myself out of my misery?? :shock: or wait until monday for beta??

Hope that everyone is doing really well!!! I can't get over how many BFPs there are on this thread!

Loopie- you can make it girl!!! stay strong!! step away from the hpts.
Weezie- you are doing great! symptoms mean nothing - if you have some you are stressed it is AF (that was me) and if you don't, you stress that nothing is happening. Don't think about it because everyone is different!!! hang in there!
Mia- you are doing well!
RbJean- don't give up on your embies! you don't need lots of them just one or two!!
Marin-hope your ER goes well, you have lots of follies to work with so hopefully you get lots of eggs!!
stephanie- I was convinced that AF was on her way when I had cramps Monday and Tuesday and then Wednesday I got my BFP - so cramps mean nothing!!!
suga/riogirl/katie- when is your u/s?
Sage - good luck on Monday! 6-8 sounds great!!!
Sorry if I missed anyone else! I am thinking of you guys!

As for me, I got my second beta results today and it is 597 - so it more than doubled which is awesome. I am going to go back in a week for another one just to check my numbers and my progesterone level. Then a week after that I think I'll have my u/s but nothing will be scheduled until next week sometime. I am pretty excited, I can't believe this is actually happening...finally!!!

Tammy - poor sweetie! I am so sorry to hear you are sick :( I hope you and DH feel better soon!
Dawn- 10 follies is great, that's what I had!
Lovebug- mine got lowered then upped again, don't worry!

anyone schedule their 1st u/s after BFP yet? How are you girls feeling? I am finding that the wait between your last beta and the 1st u/s is a killer! :shock: :shock:

RIO: You just made my day :D

Love bug: Someone mentioned a while ago some drink with electrolytes that was meant to be good for keeping your overies balenced. The US drink is gotorade. The GB drink is powerade. Dont really know if it works. They have changed my meds so thats probably the reason this time. But ive been drinking them anyway. Might be worth a go love bug.
