YEAHHHH Jim and JesJes!!! Congratulations 
I am so happy for you both.
This thread is doing great!!
Went for my baseline and everything looks good. I haven't received the blood work numbers yet. They saw 8 follies on the right and 3 on the left. They always have such a hard time finding my left. It is stuck up high on my bowels. I hope they don't have a hard time retrieving eggs from it.
Can't wait for the nurse to call my with stim instructions.
Hope everyone is doing good. Lets keep the great beta numbers going.

Congratulations Jim! You are going to be amazing parents, you can just tell from your attitude through all this and your dedication to one another. I am so happy for you. Today is a good day!!
Had my mock transfer today. All is well. He said I might have up to 25 eggs and will be feeling nice and full stimming next week. Bring on the baggy clothes.

Hey Jim,
Shoot, I forgot to ask what they were. She said the lining looked fine. Didn't say anything about the size of the follies.
The nurse called and gave me my instructions for Gonal-F. I have 150 tonight and 75 twice a day until next check up. I did ask about my blood work numbers. She said estrogen was less than 20, LH 4.8 and progesterone 1.38. She said they were good numbers, but I have no clue

God provides.
Bless you all!
Absolutely Fabulous! Congrats to Dri and Jim! Thanks for sharing this ride with us. Your support, stories and NOW SUCCESS have helped our group enormously. I can't wait to here how you both or doing as you plan for your little peanut to arrive. I hope that any worries that you've carried with you can now be set aside so that you can truly celebrate your blessing without many thoughts about upcoming milestones (raising betas, u/s's, etc)
That's one thing I wish for all of us when we finally become pregnant. That we can just BE pregnant and blessed rather than look onto the next step. I've never been pregnant so I don't know what it's like, but regardless, a girl can hope right?

Chelly- Thanks so much! What's your update this afternoon?
Ruby- That's so nice of you to say. You know, these are the days we'll never forget. I always tell her that. (until of course we have the baby)
Keep us updated on the follicle and lining sizes. You have to ask them all these questions to keep them on their toes. Where are you doing it? What clinic?
Turtles- Yeah, you need to know this. Then you'll know when they're going to trigger you, right? Be good to yourself and relax!
MJ- Thanks doll!
SD- You're too sweet. Funny you used the "little peanut" reference. My dad called me that when I was about 5 years old. I miss him.
You ARE going to get pregnant. I really feel and think it. That prayer I sent out today will help. I know it helped us. Actually, I had to go to two churches because the first one was closed, lol. Hang in there girl, it'll happen.

Congratulations to Dri-Jim on the BFP ! That's awesome...it must be a lucky thread. I hope I get a BFP on 05/05.
I've not written much because my pc is acting up and it's difficult to write.
This 2ww is starting to get to me. Unlike a lot of you, I've not taken a HPT and I thought I would wait. But I analyze all the symptoms and sometimes I feel pregnant ( it might be wishful thinking ). I have been soooo tired at times and very thirsty, hungry and lots of night sweat. Does any of this sound promising to the girls that have been pregnant before? What if some symptoms like sore boobs kind of goes away...is that a bad sign? They're a bit bigger now and tingle from time to time.
I read all that you have been writing and it has been a very supportive group that I wish I had joined sooner.
I'm so very happy for all of you that got the BFP...my heart is filled with joy because I know how much all of us want these babies in our lives!

Jim - I am in Santa Monica and am going to Innovative Fertilty in Manhattan Beach. From the research I have done it is a great clinic and he has been in practice since 81. I like him too, so that is good.
He said today it looked like one side had 14 and the other 11 and that I will feel like I have two cantaloupes in my belly next week on stims. I will ask about the lining. He showed it to me on the US but we didn't discuss the size. Thanks for the info.
Hope you two enjoy your weekend. I can guess it will almost impossible not to.

Sorry I haven't posted in a couple days! I've been tired and crampy after ER and busy at work.
Congrats to JesJes and Dri-Jim! That is fabulous news. Keep up the prayers for the rest of us, I know it is helping.
Glad to hear everyone's stimmin' is going so well.
Here's my latest report: I did not go for ET yesterday, but instead ran to work as soon as the call came in that it would be a 5dt--we were down to the minute of having to walk out the door and drive to St Louis.
3-8 cell
2-7 cell
1-5 cell
1-4 cell
The nurse said this is very good. I think it is similar to my 1st cycle or slightly better. Anyway, I have ET at 8:15am tomorrow. Not looking forward to the full bladder!
ET-5/4
