TARA - CONGRATS - we have another BFP on the board
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Adsgirl - Hang in there bedrest will be over soon and then things will be back to normal. Well as normal as they can be on your 2ww. Just keep remembering you are PUPO.

Turtles - The idea of 3 scares the crap out of me.

Rosario - I know that is a hard decision to figure out on how many to transfer. I have in my mind that 3 won't be bad because really what are the chances of them all taking? Though that would be my luck that they all would and I don't think there is anyway I can handle 3. So do you have an idea of when you will start your next cycle?

bell-02 - Good Luck on your Beta. Hoping for another BFP.

Sonu911 - how is the 2ww going?

Congratulations Chrissy & Tara!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's wonderful news! Yeah BFP!!!! :D :D :D :D

Jcurly - hang in there. Those #s can still go up. Keep in mind, it's still a positive:):) I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you that the #s go up.

Brit, I'm so sorry about the BFN. I can totally relate to the disappointment you are feeling. Try to keep your head up. I wish you lots of luck on the next cycle.

Rosario, I'm so sorry about the canceled cycle. Keep your head up too. I'm sending hugs to you and Brit.

Well I'm waiting for AF to arrive. She is due today. I hope she comes on time so I can begin my next IVF cycle tomorrow.

Best wishes to those in the 2ww. I know it can seem endless....

hi everyone,,

sorry i have been mia...i was supposed to go to transfer yesterday but they weren't quite ready and so we waited until this morning. DH and I got a surprise this morning though, out of the 6 yesterday, only two made it until today! I couldn't beleive it...I don't know what happened between yesterday and today? the good news is we still had two to transfer and we did. doc told us one was great and one was good. What does the rating have to do with anything???? I had no idea how emotional I would feel when i saw the u/s and watched them go in!!! What an absolutely amazing experience! I am so scared and so excited and dh is not letting me do anything. He is standing over me as we speak ;) i already started eating pineapple and still drinking gatorade...any idea when out of the water for ohss? oh and my bw is scheduled already for July 10 i don't know how I am going to make it!!!!!

I am SOOOO excited for the BFP's CONGRATULATIONS tara and chrissy!!!!! woo hoo

Bella123- Your PUPO!!! :D Wow, you won't have long to wait at all. only 9 days before you test. :) Get some rest!!

Bell-02- Any news yet?

AdsGirl - How are you doing? Is today your last day of bed rest?

No news for me. Am still POAS but still neg. I feel real crampy when I stand for any period of time. It does go away when I sit or lay down. I don't know if that is good or not. Have not had any spotting at all since transfer. :? Well, will know in 2 days!!! :D

Way to go on your transfer. I had the exact same thing happen to me with my transfer. We had 7 that fertilized but only 2 made it to transfer. That is all you need.

Good Luck on bed rest. I had to do 5 days! Lucky you.

We got our results back and unfortunately, they were negative. :cry: We're hoping to be able to fit in another cycle later this summer. This board has been so supportive and helpful to me, thank you so much. Good luck to everyone else.

Bell - I am so so sorry to hear about your negative results. Glad to hear you'll hopefully be able to give it another go this summer! Fingers crossed for you on your next round...GOOD LUCK!

Bella - You are PUPO!!! Congrats, lady! I was really emotional during the transfer as well. How long are you on bedrest? I am on my last of four days...my back is killing me! Anyway, congrats to you and your DH for making it this far and for having two wonderful embies to transfer!

I am looking forward to my parents coming to town Thursday...hoping it will help the long weekend go by without a lot of stressing about my beta! I decided I'm not going to POAS until the day before or the day of our beta...I want to POAS now, but I'm just not going to do it...DH and I agreed. I don't have any at home, so I can't cheat! Will wait til right before we take it to buy them!

I have been concerned that I haven't had any spotting, when it seems like SO many women with BFPs do...but I've been reassured that not everyone with a BFP has spotting. I've been feeling a little crummy today with a bit of a sore throat and just an icky feeling in my abdomen...not quite cramping...but just blah. Otherwise, just looking forward to getting off of bedrest!!

Hope all is well with everyone!

Sorry, all. I've been lurking a little, but didn't get enough time to post. Lots of news from all of you these last few days.

Chrissy and Tara, congrats!! It's great to see the BFPs starting.

JCurly, I've got my fingers crossed for you too. I saw someone on the board go from really poor numbers to twins a few months ago, so don't lose hope.

Bell-02, Brit, sorry to hear about the BFNs. It's good you can both give it another try, but I know that doesn't make it any easier to get the news. Be good to yourselves and go do something fun. These might be your last few non-pregnant months, so enjoy them!

Rosario, I'm the one who transferred 4. Triplets are statistically just about impossible for someone my age, because egg quality gets so shoddy after 40. It's hard enough to get even one to stick, so the risk was really low. Might not apply to you, though.

Bella, I know it's a cliche, but it really does just take one. Lots of people get BFP only transferring one or two.

Wishfull, Sonu and AdsGirl, I'm counting on the three of you to get the BFPs started for next week. I'm testing the day after you all (7/9).

Bell, I'm so sorry to hear about your negative. I hope you will be able to try again in the summer.

Congrats to you Bella on being PUPO and welcome to the 2WW!!!

Kate - I think we are going to be the fantastic five next week - with me bringing up the rear on the 11th!

I'm back to work today after 3 days of taking it easy after transfer. Not much to report, just mildly sore boobs :? , not many cramps (and those I have I think are from eating like a pig!) :lol: , and just pretty hungry, oh, and some pretty killer gas pains.... :oops: No spotting at all - so hoping that this means my embabies are snuggling in for the ride, trying not to get worried yet, and no more POAS till Friday when I want to make sure the trigger shot is out of my system.

JCurly, sending you good vibes for tomorrow, my fingers are crossed for you, I hope this time shows your numbers really rising.

Rosario - we transferred 3 embies. We were set on two, - I'm 31. But, it is our second IVF, and I have decreased ovarian reserve - we only had 3 when it came to transfer day, and one was only a five cell (day 3). The other 2 were great quality. We decided to put all 3 back. If it had been a day 5 transfer, I don't think we would have done so - but......unless we end up in that position, I'm not 100% we wouldn't. Good luck with your decision, and I think you're right, we should be the ones to be guided, rather than told the final number.

Wow, next week is going to busy with 6 test results. Hope they all are BFP!!

jude - I also had some really horrible gas pains last week. My belly was really out there. :x luckily it mostly went away.

Adsgirl - hope you are not getting sick with that sore throat. Hope you feel better once you get out of bed rest.
