Angram- WOOOHOOO way to go one that big fat line.

Ads and Jude - Good luck with ET today.

Hope everyone else is having a great weekend. I made my follow up appt but it is not until next Monday. Hope my mind can rest until then. I do not do well not knowing what is going on, hence all my POASing. I am hoping for a nice good change in my meds dose, if I don't feel like he is going to change things I will be going somewhere else. I cannot afford to try the same protocol again. It is time to be aggressive and get that BFP!!!

I am going to start AP again that week after I take next week off from everything. I have budgetted for 15 sessions I just hope that will be enough to be effective. Anyhoo hopefully I can hope on the Aug/Sept board and not have to wait til the one after.

Have a great weekend!

MzTia - I totally agree and would also request a change in protocal. Best of luck to you and keeping my fingers crossed you get to start very soon!

Dakota - That damn stick was evil and totally calling my name :) I had to wait 3-4 hours last night before I could take it, so i basically just stared at the clock the entire time...my DH thinks I'm completely insane :) I'm sure your little bean is just making room and settling in for the 8 month condo they've rented, try not to worry too much :)

AdsGirl - How are you after ET, getting some good rest I hope!

Thanks everyone for the well wishes, I'll let you know about my beta tomorrow!!

Well just to say that I am now officially PUPO!!!!
Meant to be resting, so just a short post :wink:
We ended up transferring three :shock: cos one was only a 5 cell, the other two were 6 and 8 cell, and my RE thought we may as well, as the 5 cell probably wouldn't make it to freeze. He thought there would be less regrets if we did the 3 - so we did!!!
Good luck to every one - Adsgirl, hope ur ET went well!

Okay, must enjoy rest time and get off the PC!!! :lol:

Angram - we were freaking out a bit about the poss. of triplets, but RE said it was very unlikely, and was reassuring about that - and to be honest, we'd love twins!!!

Turtles - you're my hero for doing the PIO yourself! I guess if we have to then we can do anything - those babes will know just how loved they are.

Dakota - when is ur ultrasound?

Jude- My U/S has not been scheduled yet, but I have another beta on Tues and if all is well I'll move onto the u/s the following week (2nd week in July).

I got a few bouts' of nausous feeling today, but they only lasted about 10 mins then followed by extreme hunger. Off to nap, I am so tired!!!!

PUPO!!!

So I have been laying around all day...finally DH brought home his laptop from work so I could give you all an update! ET went really really well today. We had six "excellent, high-grade" blasts! We transferred two and will have at least four frosties. Two of our 12 embies had arrested, 2 or 3 that were left looked like they might also make it to blast tomorrow...if so, they will freeze those ones, too! It is SOOOO wierd being PUPO.

DH is taking great care of me and not letting me do anything myself...I'll take it while I can get it! The ET was really emotional for me. When the embryologist told us about how well our embies were doing, I almost started to cry...then during the ET, every time I glanced at my DH, I started to tear up...we locked eyes for a few seconds and both started to cry. I tried to keep it in check though, cause I didn't want to get all worked up and squeeze my embies out!!!! lol

Jude - Glad to hear your ET went well, too! Congrats on transferring your three embies! Aren't you just so excited? My lab gave me pictures of our embies that we transferred...did you get the same? I just stared it fo so long. I've had to pee a lot, but otherwise I'm feeling pretty good.

Turtles - I totally admire you and all the other girls on this board who have done your own PIOs. I will have to do my own at some point soon...so I will be seeking out some advice!

MzTia - Glad to hear you're getting in for appointment soon (although obviously not soon enough!). I'll be anxious to hear what your doc says about his/her plans for your next cycle.

ImBlessed - I'm so glad you started your story by saying you had a "scare"...my heart was racing as I read your post, but I knew there must be a good ending, so I rushed to get to the good news! Take it easy, girl! My goodness!

Dakota - Thanks for checking in on me today...I feel so relieved to have my embies back and to know that they were growing so well at the lab. They felt really good about our chances with two great blasts, and I have no doubt we chose the right number...hoping frick and frack both implant over the next couple of days!

My ovaries still feel huge (a lot of pressure when my bladder starts getting full), but otherwise I'm feeling good. I'm eating lots of pineapple (supposed to help with implantation?? Who knows if it's true...but I'm doing it anyway!) and still drinking gatorade. Am I in the clear yet for OHSS?

Hope you are all having a wonderful Saturday - can't wait to hear your beta numbers tomorrow, Angram!!!!

Adsgirl- Whoohoo!! PUPO!!! I am so glad to hear you had some great blast. GJ to DH for taking such great care of you. Take it easy and relax. Suck up all the pampering you can get :lol:
I've read that strawberries are just as effective as pinapples. I cant have pinapples because they are one of the highest sugar fruits, so I ate strawberries and blueberries every single morning (and still do).

Angram- I'm up early checking on your beta :o I've heard the weekend results come much faster than weekday. I cant wait!!

Hope all is well. I am off to finish watching the movie DH rented yesterday. I didnt make it through, I feel asleep!!!! Seems to be a patern.
