Adsgirl - Congrats on being PUPO!! Glad you are getting some frosties to work with. Enjoy the pampering. I didn't because DH was working on his thesis so I felt guilty for asking for stuff. How long are you on resting?

Jude - Congrats on being PUPO!! Get your rest!! How long are you resting?

Dakota - don't be surprised if falling asleep becomes a pattern. When i was pregnant with my son, I was exhausted the first trimester. My DH thought I was making it up because he thought it was the end of pregnancy that you were tired. You are but nothing like the first few months.

O.k. I seem to have the opposite problem as Dakota's bathroom problem. I am 7dp3dt. Did anyone else have bad diarrhea and gas? Yesterday was horrible. I don't know if it is from the drugs or maybe just a bug? I am not on any new drugs, only PIO and estrogen patches. Today is not bad but my belly is making a lot of weird rumbly noises.

turtles - I've been having the same bathroom issues as you the past couple of days, but thought maybe it was just nerves. Hope it gets better soon for you!!

Dakota - I've heard similar things about strawberries, so I ate those and pineapple :)

OK ladies, I'm officially pregnant!!! My beta was 297 and progesterone was 119.5. We are so freaking excited!!! :):):) DH is cautiously optimistic, since we had a miscariage last year, but I'm flying high this afternoon! We were at brunch with my family, so of course we both left the table to take the call. We came back and they were all just staring at us..so we had to tell them. That's about 20 minutes after my Dad asked me (in front of 10 people i remind you) if I had peed on a stick yet?? Classy, I know :)

Anyhoo, we're pregnant and I'm totally freaking happy!!!

Angram, That is Fantastic!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on the great Beta, I was smiling from ear to ear reading your post!!! :D What a wonderful number (and what a cute dad!!)

Turtles, my RE says 3 days bed rest and then 2 days light activity, but I pretty much did the bed rest yesterday, and today I'm just pottering around a little bit and taking it easy. I go back to work of Tuesday. Ate some pineapple already :lol:

Angram - CONGRATS!!! That's wonderful!

Jude & AdsGirl - Welcome to the 2ww. Hang in there!

Dakota - I've been exhausted as well. There are things I want to do, but I just don't have the energy. So, you're not by yourself. I heard it gets better during the second trimester.

Ladies, enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Hey ladies - I'm writing from the couch...had some cramping today...hope that's a good sign of my embies getting comfy! The embryologist called and let us know that one more embryo made it to blast and looks great - one more frostie! As my husband has been saying: We have two in the oven and five in the freezer!

ImBlessed - Thanks for the welcome to the 2ww! Can't believe I made it!! Sorry you are feeling tired...make sure you take your bodies cues and get your rest!

Angram - YAHOO!! That is an awesome beta number, my friend! Way to go! I think it's hilarious that your dad was asking you about POAS! Did you tell them you had before you got the call? Or was everyone still in suspense? I am so so happy for you and your DH!!

Turtles - I made it!! So glad that you and I both made it to the 2ww after a couple of crazy, stressful months...hopeing to celebrate BFPs together soon! I'm on bedrest for four days, per my doc...I will go out tomorrow for my AP appointment...and that's about it. As far as having the opposite problem from Dakota...me too....have, actually since right after stims...it's gotten beter, but still comes and goes. The doc said hormones and also swollen ovaries pushing on your GI tract can cause it. Fun.

Neffi - How are you feeling, lady??

Ads-- I'm actually feeling pretty good. I have been tired, and kinda feeling just yucky, but not sick. BBs are slightly sore, and my heartburn has actually decreased. I feel like I should be feeling worse, but I'm not complaining. I just want to see my little one/ones on the screen and I will feel better. Hope everyone is doing well. I am reading everyday, multiple times, just not too much to post :D

Adsgirl/turtle, I wish I had your problems, then maybe are the backed up pressure wouldnt be there and I could buttopn my pants.

Ads/jude- glad your resting well.

Imblessed- Dh asked me today if I needed BonBon's. Smart ass!! I get tired so easy when I do things, so I'l do a load of clothes and sit down for 30 mins, do the dishes, then sit down for 30 mins...so on and so forth. Plus, I get plenty of exercise going pee. I sneezed earlier and peed myself!!! great!!! Just want I wanted!!!

Neffi- 6 weeks already, wow! I cant wait until you can see your little
one(s). I feel like I am wishing my weeks away. I just want to get past the remainder beta's and u/s then slide into the safety zone so I can relax and enjoy myself. I put a pregnancy after 30 book on hold at the library, but I refuse to get it now because I dont want to jinx myself.

Is it Tues yet??? I think that is my last beta then we leave for vaca for 5 days, so I am hoping that will take my mind off of things and make time go by fast and the next thing I know its u/s time. At least I am praying for that.

Well, weekend is over :cry: Hope everyone had a nice one!!

Hi guys! congrats to all! Those are some great betas I see posted. AF came this morning. Serious cramps! DH helped that along (TMI I know). HE has been so nervous around me and last night we had a long talk. Worried about doing it again, should we, could we? Taking blood tomorrow, DR said if all is well we can. My name btw is what I want. Also how can I add all my info like I see everyone else does? Best of health to all. Will keep you guys posted.

Congrats to all the BFPs on this thread. :D
Angram: that's a great first beta. Love your Dad for asking if you had already POAS !! Priceless :D

Dakota: Good luck on Tuesday. Your beta will be great...I still see it my crystal ball! Hope the bloating will go away soon.

Mztia: I'm sorry about your BFN :( . I hope you're taking good care of yourself! And best of luck on your next cycle!

Babygurl:Under 'profile', you can add personal info where it says signature and it will be added each time to your posts automatically.
I hope you get to start soon and if so, we'd love to have you on the July/August thread.

Best of luck to all that are still in the 2ww!
