Hey Girls, Well not so good news. Of the 6 mature eggs, three fertilized normal, one fertilized abnormal, one fell apart and one didn't fertilize. So I lost 50% in 1 day.:cry: I know I only need one but it is still hard to hear that you lost half your eggs. I hope when she calls tomorrow things are better. She will also give me a time for transfer on Sunday.

I didn't sleep hardly at all last night. I am glad she called early so at least I know.

queenie - don't give up hope yet!!

Dakota - you make me laugh with your stealth peeing.

Three is still good turtles!! Your right...it only takes 1!!! I am routin your little embies on. "go embies go!!!". I felt like I need to get pom pom's and go sit next to them :lol: They've made a huge leap so far! Your other 3 are going to do great. Do you guys know if you'll put all 3 back or just 2?

Thanks Dakota for the cheer, the doc had told me before he would only put 2 back because of my age and situation. I am an above knee amputee so the thought of three scares the crap out of me. :wink: Even twins sounds a little scary. :shock: Though my husband would be very delighted :roll: He wouldn't be the one carrying them.

I am sure I will get my PMA back in a little bit. I am just tired since I didn't sleep well at all. I might need to go take a nap in a little bit. Then I need to go buy a present for a baby that my sister-in-law just adopted from Guatemala. I will be seeing her for the first time tomorrow. I hope I don't burst in tears or anything :wink:

Hey Ladies!

Queenie-- don't give up! there are many people who don't get a + that early. What test did you use?

Turtles--I only had three fert. and I'm pregnant! Don't worry about it, those three could do great!

As for me.....3rd beta 504!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm thrilled. My clinic wants blood until I reach 1000, so since that should be over the weekend, I'll go back tuesday than hopefully I can schedule my u/s.

Neffi - I knew it!!!! I don't post too much but am constantly checking! That is so great - very close to my numbers. This was definitely your time!!!

Dakota - sounds like good news for you too - awesome!!

Turtles - keep the faith, 1 is all you need!!!

As for me, another u/s today - baby is definitely growing, and saw the heartbeat again so I know it's in there. I have been so sick this week - nausea morning til night. They gave me some lollipop type things this morning to try to help with the nausea. I'll try anything!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend. I am heading to a cousin's wedding tomorrow and that side of the family doesn't know, so there may be a fake drink in my hand tomorrow!

Alright <b>Neffi</b>!!! Sounds like a good beta number. Congrats!!

<b>Lisa</b> That is cool you got to see the heartbeat again. Good luck with your fake drink tomorrow :wink:

Thanks everyone for the PMA. I took a little nap and seem to feel a little better. I guess I was sad because they left 3 eggs in and then 3 didn't make it. Hope the last 3 are fighters!! I can't wait to hear what grades they get tomorrow. Come on good grades!! :D I am going to my sister-in-laws tomorrow so I hope the embryologist can get a hold of me. Cell signal sucks where she lives. Does anyone know if going swimming tomorrow will be a problem? Thanks!

Turtles- Keep the faith! I only had 2 embies to transfer. And I've been told I'm pregnant too! Just waiting to see them for myself on the ultrasound! It only takes one! Don't ever give up hope! The first dr. we went too told us there was no way we would have a child of our own because he said I was too heavy. Guess what.....he was wrong! So keep your chin up! It will happen!

Good afternoon ladies !

Neffi: YEAAAAHHH !! a wonderful beta for you !! I know this must put your mind at ease. I knew you'd get a good number !! :D

Turtles: I know it's a stressful time for you...your embies will be just fine and 3 is a good number. They probably will keep on dividing and dividing some more....like the design on a turtle's shell. :wink:
You're in my thoughts...Keep that PMA.!

Queenie: Don't feel bad yet about that stark white area next to the test line ! every woman is different and some get an early rise and others a little later...and the hpts are not 100% accurate anyway ! They've seen plenty of false negative and it IS TOO EARLY....Also keep your PMA going.

Babygurl: waiting to hear about your beta. Good luck. Hoping for another BFP !

Hello Girls,

Sorry i will not have time for personals but just wanted to say I am off to sunny spain Sunday am and will try and check in from there to see how you are all doing.

I am feeling a little deflated/unsure as I put my pessary in tonight and could really feel my cervix, where as previously I haven't been able to. It seems like it has almost moved down ready to bleed. I could be worrying over nothing but it doesn't seem right to me and i am too scared to check again.

Sorry to be a downer and I really hope to see some positive news happening on the thread. Take care everyone.

Louise x :wink:
