Neffi - Congratulations!!! That is amazing news, Im so excited for you!! I can't wait to hear what your Beta is!

As for me Im going in monday around 9am, the lab picks everything up around 11am and I won't hear back until 2:30-3:00. I am leaving work at 2:30 because I don't want to be there regardless of the results... I just can't stand to be working and hear the news especially "bad".

I did not POAS today, I actually had to go so bad I just went and didn't have time to get it out. I may do it in the morning so I can be better prepared.

I had a good birthday thank you for the wishes & what i can now look forward to being 25. LOL I went to the mall yesterday and actually felt dizzy and nauteous so I came home and laid down. The feeling stuck with me all night so I have no idea what that means.. Im feeling nauesous again now I just hope its because they are sticking in there good and not because of something else. :D

Goodluck to all of you tomorrow! I really hope I have some great news to share with you all!!

Hi all!

NEFFI---YES!!! YOU'RE THE FIRST ONE TO POST YOUR BFP....CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I know Mrs. G and I will be posting here tomorrow with the same enthusiasm. If we lived near by, I would say, let's meet tomorrow night to celebrate.LOL!!!

I have such a positive feeling about this cycle. I told DH this morning that I was actually excited for Monday to come. I just want a confirmation of what I've been feeling. I know God is blessing us right now.

WashingtonDA--thank you for checking in! I've been actually working, but I've been trying to be gentle on my body AND I've been resting whenever I get a chance. Yesterday, I had to come to work (I'm coordinating a special event so I have to come to campus to make sure everything is running smoothly), anyway, I got home at around 5pm and I went right to bed....I woke up at 9PM!!!! I had to force my self to get up and eat, otherwise I could have slept right through this morning.

Thank you for your advice, I'll keep it in mind for the next 8 weeks ;)

Mrs. G--Tomorrow is our day to post BFPs!!! BFPs!!! BFPs!!!


Amy--your babies are going home tomorrow with mama, where they really belong! I'm so happy for us.

Pumma--it won't be long until you are posting your BFP as well. I can't wait.


Love to all.

Well, we were walking around Philadelphia yesterday and I was having some cramping. I got myself into a funk and we decided to test last night, to just know something. We figured at 13 days past 3 day transfer, we should be able to get some result.

Well,

This isn't my actual test, but my line was that dark. I shook for like an hour. I can't believe this is happening.

I tried again this morning, but I got a bum test, no control line or anything. That was aggrivating, but I keep staring at last night's.

My BETA is tomorrow.

I can't see the picture from here but if it's a line girl then CONGRATS!! That is amazing news!

I went for my BETA this morning and i won't get the results until this afternoon. Im not as confident as I was.. I took a HPT this morning and it was negative so I'm preparing for the worst. The nurse tried to cheer me up a little by saying my HCG levels could still be too low for a HPT but it's hard to hold onto hope.

I'm leaving work at 2:30 today I should get my results later today.. I can't wait to hear all the big beta numbers today girls! Im excited for you all!

CONGRATS KBEAR!!! Like Ms G said, a line is a line. As long as the line appeared right away not after having had the test sit for over 10 minutes that you can assume that you are a Mommy to be. Did you try another test after the one that didn't give you a reading at all.

CONGRATS!!!

Ms G - Hang in there girlie, no test is final until that beta. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you

Esperanza and Neffi -- I'm waiting for your betas too. I've got everything crossed.

Amy do you test tomorrow? If so, just one more sleep and you can confirm your BFP.

Good luck to all of you ladies today.

Hi dears.

Bad news....BFN...I'm really sad and broken hearted. I can't write much right now or I will start crying and I'm at work. I need to take a break from all of this. I think I might try again in the summer...my heart can't take more right now. I haven't even told dh, but I'm sure he'll be supportive and wait until the summer when my mom is here and I can take a real vacation and just relax.

Thank you for your support and good thoughts. I appreciate them.

Esperanza -- I am at a lost for words. I really had my heart set on a big positive from you so you could keep us all going. I know no words can express what you must be feelin right now. I won't say too much because I am sorta upset right now myself. You are such an inspiration and I wanted so much to share the next months with you. Know that when you are ready to talk, I'll be hear to talk.

I know nothing will make you feel better at this point so I'll just say take good care of yourself and whenever you are ready to start the jouney again, know that I am here to cheer you on.

You have many friends here who wish you nothing but the best so when you're ready for a good chat we'll be here for you.

Love you girlie! :cry:

Oh Esperanza, I'm so terribly sorry. I gasped when I read your news. I'm baffled as to why it's taking longer for you to become pregnant again. I can't believe how incredibly unfair this whole process is. But whenever you are ready to come back to IVF, we'll be here to support you.

Feeling particularly lost today, Lostgirl

Esperanza- I am so sorry to hear your news. I really felt like this was going to happen for you this time. I, as everyone else who is reading, wishes there was something I could say to make you feel better. When you are ready to talk, we are here for you.

Neffi- I read on another board that your beta was low...don't lose hope, mine was pretty low too. I know you really won't know anything until your next beta, but just stay strong and keep your hope alive.

Mrs. G- Any news yet? I hope everything is good with you, update us when you can.

Amy- How were your embies? How did ET go? Update when you can, we are all praying for you and sending sticky dust your way!

Hello Ladies, Mine too was a BFN. I was heartbroken as well and at a total loss for words. I was waiting on my Dr. to call me because I was curious as to what the beta actually read and what his thoughts are.

Unfortunately my insurance covers absolutely nothing and DH and I don't have the money for another Full Fresh IVF cycle. :cry: It's just so expensive and heartaching.

I cried all day today and left work early..I just don't know what to think or do. DH tried to comfort me and told me we can continue to try on our own but this process just doesn't seem fair.

I want to wish you all the best of luck and thank you so much for all of your support. I will continue to check in when I can, as of right now I just need my time.
