Dakota - I go in at 9:30 on Thursday. 2 more days. I was feeling nauseous tonight so that is a good sign I think. I can't believe we get excited about feeling crappy :wink:

AdsGirl- Great will power to avoid POAS. I have discovered I have no will power when it comes to that. :wink: Glad you will have your parents in town to keep your mind off for a little while. I have 2 days, but DH is finishing his thesis and locked in his office. :) Not much distraction there. I did talk my son to see Wall-E and went to dinner tonight so we wouldn't bother DH. That was a nice outing. Cute movie.

babygurlsolages - I was on 450 of Gonal F this last cycle. This time I didn't do menopur. It did the trick with 6 eggs recovered and 3 follies that they couldn't reach. Good luck!!

jude - My son is 4. His birthday is at the end of Aug. and he can't wait to turn 5 like all of his friends. :) He has been great with my emotional rollercoaster. One day I was just crying for no reason. He gave me a big hug and his bat man blanket. I couldn't stop crying so he went to daddy and told him, "You have to go give mommy a hug because mine didn't work." Of course that just made me cry harder :D

Dakota - Have an outstanding time on vacation!!

turtles - I can't wait to hear your beta tomorrow, how exciting!

So for all you prego women out there...is anyone else having the milky white discharge (sorry, TMI) and are you slightly cramping/stretching really low? I'm pretty sure it's all normal, but I haven't heard many of you mention anything like this.

Okay, so one more day down, 8 and a half to go...! :D

Thanks for the reassurance Angram - I'm glad to know about everyone's different symptoms when they have their BFPs, because ur right, I guess everyone is different so can't go much by them anyhow. Last time I had super sore boobs and a whole lot of twinges and cramps - and it was BFN, so at least it feels different this time :)

Turtles, that is so very sweet. Now that is the reason that we go through all this crap, is to be able to have moments like that. What a little cutie.

Dakota, have a fab time on vacation - eat lots of dogs - now you're eating for two (or three!) :wink:

Tutles - yay for nausea!! Good luck for a big beta tomorrow.

Adsgirl - enjoy your company, and hope all is good with you

TURTLES - GOOD LUCK TODAY!! Can't wait to hear you results! Praying for your BFP!!

Dakota
- Hope you are enjoying your vacation...Does your family know about your results? How hard it would be to spend all that time with family and not share your news! Either way, hope it is going well!

Jude - How are you hanging in? I have been feeling VERY tired and had just a tiny bit of spotting yesterday. I actually don't even know if I would call it spotting it was so minor. Anyway - Tuesday can't come fast enough. Are you going to POAS? I have this burning desire to do so, but I'm going to wait.

Angram - when do you go back in? How are you feeling? Hope all is going well...any big plans for the long weekend?

I may be a bit absent over the weekend with my parents in town, but I will be checking in when I can! Happy Fourth, everyone!

Thanks Adsgirl - I am not feeling very confident. I POAS this morning and it was negative. :( So unless I have a low beta then I think it is going to be negative. I hope they get the results back to me quickly. I go in at 9:30.

Dakota - Hope you have a great vacation. Make sure you get lots of rest!!

Hope everyone else has a great weekend!!

turtles - I'm keeping my fingers crossed your HPT just didn't pick up the HCG, let us know how it goes. Good luck!!!

AdsGirl - I go back in Sunday morning for my 3rd beta, time is dragging just like it did in the 2ww :) Overall I'm feeling pretty good, but totally exhausted and still crampy, on and off. It's the stretching feeling, so think it's my uterus making room for my little bean! Have a great weekend with your family and happy 4th!! When again is your beta?

jude - The 2ww waiting game can drive a woman totally crazy and it doesn't seem to get much better during the wait for the u/s :) We had a miscarriage last year (well nothing appeared in the sac), so my DH is a nervous wreck waiting for the u/s. He's worrying enough for both of us, so I'm just celebrating :)

Hope everyone else has a great 4th of July!!

Well, this wasn't my time. It was a negative. I actually got the call right before my massage so had some of the tension relieved right away :wink: I will be o.k. Will have a some wine and a long hot bath tonight :D. They have already put me on the schedule for the next cycle in August if I start AF soon. So I will try to lose a few pounds for the next cycle by doing some swimming. I might try some acupuncture the next time also.

There are several of us from this thread previously that are now part of the Aug/Sept thread. We would love to have you join us over there. Enjoy your wine and your bath. Your time is coming!

Turtles-- I am so sorry this didnt work for you! Sounds like you are taking it well, take time to heal with DH and then TRY TRY AGAIN!

As for me, I had my prenatal visit today, went over the do's and don'ts of pregnancy and she told me I was 6wks4days and my due date is Feb. 22 (like I didn't already know :D ) I had an exam to check my cervix, it was closed so everything looks good. My u/s is wed, I am so excited and nervous! Well I'm off to the beach Happy 4th!

Turtles- I am sorry to hear this time was not it for you, BUT next time will be the one. You have a great attitude. I expect to start stimming again the first week of Sept so we can get those BFP's together.

Have a great 4th all!!!

Oh Turtles, I am so sorry to hear your news. Seemed like you were pretty prepared for it, but I sure wasn't. I'm so so sad...made me cry. I'm excited for to you to try again in August. Your positive attitude is such an inspiration, and your support has really meant a lot to me...You're officially on to Cycle 2 (NOT 2a)! Enjoy the vino and the long weekend!!
