Jan/Feb 08 Cycle Buddies

[Sage]

Wow! Thanks Riogirl for keeping the list up to date. It is crazy that we have had so many BFP's! I hope to be on that list in a few weeks!

Aims- It sounds like we are on the same schedule! I am having my ET tomorrow at 8:30. How many are you transfering? I am hoping to do 3 (fingers crossed that embies are growing well). I am nervous!

[riogirl71]

Sage good luck with ET tomorrow! Let us know how it went, rest up!

Any more u/s dates?

[aims327]

Sage - I am only transferring 2. I am nervous as well. I hope they stick! Are they having you take valium tomorrow before the transfer? I have to but I'm not sure why. I guess they want me really relaxed!

[Sage]

Aimes- I have to take a valium too. I wish that I didn't...my dh can't come with me tomorrow and I have to drive 2 1/2 hrs!!! So my SIL has to come with me. I would have been fine going alone had it not been for the valium. Also, I need to talk to RE and I am concerned that the valium will make me loopy!

[waitingforMia]

Don't have any time but wanted to let you know that I decided for sure to wait until tomorrow after the b/w to POAS!! I can make it just a few more hours The cramping is worrying me - but hooping it is uterus stretching - will be on later

Hi everyone---I have been having lots of US due to my OHSS so today it was clear I have one little bean. I have a print-out. Im happy and ok with one. So unless the other was completly hiding but id say 99% sure. Ok well congrats to everyone else and still not sure when us for HB will be. Got another US friday for fluid and I will ask more questions then.

Sage, Aimes, Kerpupples

I think we are all on the same schedule for ET tomorrow. I go in at noon for a 5 day transfer. We are trying to decide how many to do. I am scared to do 3 cause I cant handle 3 at once! Scared to do 2 cause what if one splits and we get 3 anyway! Scared to do only 1 cause what if that 1 doesnt work! Havent decided....

What are you guys going to do?

Wow, the BFPs are contagious! (I hope!)

[Sage]

Marin,

Hi good luck tomorrow!

We are transferring 3 (I hope-don't know how they have progressed since day 1). We only have 3 that fertilized from the 6 eggs that we got. So we are doing a day 3 transfer and I am a gambler...I would be thrilled with twins and to never have to go through this again!

[sugabeanzs]

Holy Cow! This must be a blessed board for all these positives! WoW! Congrats to all!!!!

[Rinnie]

Marin Just my 2 cents because I thought about it a lot....and then I didn't have to. It depends what the quality is. If you have 2 great ones at 5 days, I'd do two, not one because you're not in your 20's. If they're ok, not great, maybe 3...but I know it's scary. You have to go with what you feel. You'll have a good idea though, because it's 5 days.

Rin - good to see you here and glad you are taking good care of yourself!
Suga- U/S coming up soon for us, I can't wait!
Katie- congrats on your little bean! I wish I could see mine!
Sage- I am a gambling woman also so I think your 3 are a very good bet! Good luck and keep us posted!
Marin- Sage is right it is such a gamble, some people put 4 in and get one, some people put 2 in and get 2 so it really depends on the quality of the embryos, we had decided on 3 but then we had a 5 cell one and we decided to give him/her a chance so we did 4! on 3dt!
Jomae- don't POAS! I know you are tempted but don't do it! It is so much better to know for sure then to overanalize your HPT!
Mia- I am proud of you but I would still wait for the confirmation from beta instead of POAS sooner! Don't worry I had cramps too!
doddo- great eggs! let us know the fert report - good luck!
aims- the valium is so low that it just leaves you melow, not sleepy!

For girls going to ET - get your embie pics!!!

BABY DUST!!!

[Sage]

RioGirl- I am glad that the valium is low dosage. I might write out my questions for the RE so that I don't forget anything due to the meds.

Do they always give you pics of the embies? I really hope so!
