Hello All

Post by Babysoft »

Hello All,

I hope you don't mind me joining. I just have my iui done today so I'm on the dreaded 2ww. I was a frequent poster before, but I took a year off from ttc and now I'm back at it!

I haven't had a chance to read through this thread, but I will and I will post more after that!

I just want to spread the PMA and hope for a lot of BFP's!

welcome babysoft....

I know that some people have had their results while others are waiting too. I hope that you have a good outcome. The 2ww is the hardest part of the whole thing I think, but if you keep busy hopefully, it will go fast!!!

Hello Ladies, so I am officially in the 2ww. My beta test is on 3/24.
I am a little bummed with the cell stage of our embies, though.... I had a Day3 transfer, only had 2 embies to transfer: a 4-cell and a 6-cell.

But, what-are-you-gonna-do, right? :-))

GL to everyone!!

Hey Sue...

I just wanted to let you know... RELAX!!! You got your embies back with you.. That's the important thing. We tend to worry about every little step when in fact... We have NO Control over that. Keep your PMA, it truly does wonders.

Remember, the things you can not control... you have to truly trust in.

sue hu--try to think positively. I think a rating system can be subjective.

I will keep you in my thoughts!

2ww sucks

Post by Ali2436 »

Hi! I have been a lurker here for quite some time. I am currently on my 2ww. I'm miserable this time around. I'm at the end of my cycles. No more money and no more embies to transfer. In July this whole IVF thing was introduced to me.I have endo/3cysts on ovaries.DH is 42 and has 2 children from prev. marriage. In Sept we did our first transfer. We only had 4 good embies. Transferred 2 and it failed. In Dec. we transferred the remaining 2. We were hoping for the best christmas gift ever and it didn't work. Decided to wait a little longer to start over. Decided March was a good month. On my bday March 5 we did an egg retr. of 23 eggs. Amazing! Couldn't believe it. 13 fertilized. I thought great numbers! On monday the 10th when we went for the transfer only 3 were good. I was happy to at least have that. So now I sit here on my dreaded 2ww. Trying not to read so much into my twitches or cramps. I honestly feel different this time. But still I'm ignoring it. Congrats to those who have positive results. My prayers go to those with negative results. I know what that feels like. It hurts so bad. But we manage to get through it and start again. As for me. I guess I'm prepared for the worst. Trying to stay positive but with my history its hard. I have had 2 miscarriages(natural preg) and 2 failed cycles. I'm scared.

Ali, I really feel for you. I would be scared too, it's only natural. But your time will come. Stay strong and let's hope it's sooner than later!!
When do you test for beta?

Hi, Ali :) Hang in there. this 2ww thing will drive you batty. As a fellow endo gal I know all of those twinges and cramps are hard to read. I was just wondering...have you ever had a lapyroscopy to remove some of the endometriosis? I am considering doing this before my next round (which hopefully I won't need!)

Hi Ladies,

Welcome to all the newcomers, Alli and Babysoft.

Just wanted to give you an update. Had my first US today. Only one bean. I was a little sad, but know that it will be a LOT easier w/ one. We didn't see the heartbeat. It was 12.3 mm long, I think.

Hi ladies,
Thanks for your support. Right now I need it. I get a lot of it from family but honestly they dont understand like you guys do. Your experiencing this like I am. Very hard to deal with. But I'm trying to stay positive. Trying is the word. :(
I go for my beta on March 24th.Can't be soon enough. I'm not going to go crazy and buy a HPT. I can't torture myself. Just going to wait for beta. :cry:

brs888- i did not have surgery on my endo. I did have a fibroid in my uterus that was removed. Dr said the endo isn't to severe that it would get in our way. In fact I had 2 cysts on my right over and 1 on the left. They dissappeared this time around. I'm hoping that in itself is a huge preg. boost. :)

Ali, it's great that your endo isn't severe, you should have a lot of good luck, then :)

Well ladies, I got the call today and I...

Got a BFP! :D :D :D I can hardly believe it as I didn't have great odds with only 2 4 cell embryos for a 3dt. I guess I have a little fighter. My HCG was at 165 today and I go in for another beta on Monday.

Yeah!!!
