Hi all,
I just wanted to wish Karen good, good luck tomorrow! I'll be thinking about you all day!
excited2Bpreggers-I'm so sorry. I know that when I've gotten my BFN in the past I dropped off from posting on the board but I still read the posts and it really was helpful to me. So I hope you're still lurking out there and that you know we're thinking of you.
Congratulations to Grateful and wickedwheel, what great Beta's!
I was really in a low spot earlier this week, I had a complete meltdown with DH on Monday night after I convinced myself that the Lupron wasn't suprressing my system and I was ovulating so my cycle was ruined. I called my RE the next morning and the very nice nurse calmed me down. I think they probably think I'm a crazy person down there!
I go in for my US tomorrow morning to make sure my uterine lining is thick and that everything looks right. I start my progesterone oil shots on Tuesday and than will transfer 2 in my FET on Thursday of next week.
Welcome to the newbies and take care all.

Karen... good luck with your beta today. I hope u get your BFP.
Grateful... congrats on your BFP, hope u have a happy and healthy 9 months.
As for myself... i am feling so sick right now. I have a very bad sore throat that doesnt want to go away. And since I cant take any other medicines... i feel crappy, it hurts to swallow
. My head hurts, I feel naseaus, my belly feels bloated. I go in on Friday for my 2nd scan. My stims were also lowered to 200u daily.

waiting for 4 - good luck this is sooo tough I forgot but honestly I know you will not believe me right now but when it works turns out this is the easy bit!!
I have sore boobs - I know this can be a good sign - does anyone know if the surpositries (sorry can't spell) can cause this. Seems to be lots of americans on here - hello and I know we all do these things different just wondered if anyone knew - thanks
good luck to all today still not figured out who is up to where etc sorry
Also hope you don't mind me being here having already had one BFP feels very selfish - I am only doing it again so I can tell DD when she asks why she doesn't have a sibling like all her friends I can tell her what I went through and that I tried my best - thanks for understanding

more BFP's! This thread is on a roll. Karen all the very best of luck to you XXX everything crossed.
Am really getting AF cramps now and very very edgy. I don't want to contemplate this not working and am feeling a little bit desperate at this stage. Really want to do the HTP but am truly too scared to see a negative line.

Bell - I could so relate to your meltdown. Not lately, but in past cycles I have completely convinced myself that I know what is happening in there, and it is always terrible. I think it's the hormones or something. I've also had a complete meltdown in my RE's office in front of like 5 nurses and 2 doctors, all trying to console me....that one all turned out to be over nothing! I was so embarrassed....but I think they are used to that kind of stuff!
jules - progesterone can mimic pregnancy symptoms like sore boobies. So, it is really hard to say.
Lady_J - I have the exact same sore throat thing going on - it started yesterday. Did your RE say not to take any medication at all? I'm just curious, my nurse said I could take zycam, but didn't say anything about actual cold medicine and it was a voicemail.
I noticed we are missing one smiliey face for wicked wheel - I love to see those smileys!
Congrats to Grateful and Wickedwheel on your magnificent BFPS!!!!!
Karen- I will be on the edge of my seat all day waiting to hear your news!
Kas - glad to hear you will be starting soon!
Babyhope - it is true that more follies may pop up, depending on how early you are stimming....for both cycles I only had 3 follies, then 4...they all had mature eggies in them, so don't despair....
As for me...just chillin

I was in a big funk yesterday so I took the day off from the board. I have to go for my u/s and b/w in a few hours. Keeping my fingers crossed.
babyhope1 – Hoping you have better luck on Friday. I would be in thinking the same thing of possibly canceling the cycle and maybe turning it into and IUI. I know it isn’t fun to think about it but it would save you money for another more promising cycle. Yes, it only takes one but we always want to give ourselves better odds. Good luck and keep up posted.
Julesg & waiting for 4 – Welcome to the board. I know the 2ww just sucks. You can make it though, just try and keep busy.
Mrscutter – 7 eggs is very good, I only had 6 last time. Keep us posted on your fert report.
Kas – Thanks for the support once again, I have to go for my b/w and u/w in a couple of hours. Then it is the dreaded wait. UUUGGHHHH I hate this. Yeah, you get to start stims early. Dec 6th is a good day, that is my Mom’s b-day. I am so happy that you are finally getting into your cycle. Sorry about all the shots. Last time I was on the antagonist cycle and I had to do three shots a day, that was enough for me.
Karen – I will be checking the board a million times today waiting for your update. Keeping my fingers crossed and dumping tons of baby dust on you as I type.
bell-02 – Good luck on your U/S today. I have been having a meltdown all week so maybe we should have a IVF freaking out and meltdown board.
Lady_J – Sorry you are not feeling well. I was sick a couple of weeks ago. I always get a cold when the weather starts changing. I am sure the stress of IVF isn’t helping much. Get some sleep and try and relax.
Robin – Good luck with your BETA tomorrow!!!!!!
Jill – Did you get to start stims? Sounds like a lot of us are getting sick. Like I told Lady_J, get some rest and relax. Hopefully the sickness will go away fast.
GRATEFUL - Wickedwheel - Much hope - I am so Happy for all of you. Wishing you a Happy and Healthy 9 Months.

KKE - If your E2 levels are too high then yes it is possible. I have only seen it happen a couple of times since I have been on the boards since March. There is nothing you can do about it if you have so stop stressing and try to relax for your ER tomorrow. I am sure you are fine, we just like to freak out about everything when doing a cycle. Good luck at ER.

babyhope - Stay with it. I actually ended up stimming for 12 days and apparently they grow faster towards the end. They were also going to let one of my "go" but in the end it just stayed although I'm not sure it was usable anyway...
jules, waiting - Welcome to the boards!!
grateful - Congrats on your BFP!!! That's awesome. So happy for you & your DH!
karen - Good luck on your beta today!!
wonderce, to_have_fun - Thanks for your support!
Much hope - Congrats! When is your official beta?
As for me, I'm totally freaking out. I woke up in the middle of the night last night and noticed some spotting and of course immediately assumed the worst. I think it's too late for it to be implantation spotting because today I'm already at 9dp3dt and I'm supposed to go for my 2nd beta test tomorrow. I should probably be due for AF around today normally hence my freakout. This morning there was nothing beyond a little spotting but still. My DH was being supportive and saying that it's not over yet but I'm still freaked. Can someone please talk me down? Thanks!!!

Robin, Dont freak out, spotting is normal even after implantation. be it with IVF or natural. Stay relaex and all will be fine, this is not the time fro any stress...
My official Beta #1 is Monday and the 2nd is Wednesday...
We are very excited about the test showing positive only 6dpt which means we are detecting a decent amount of Hcg, hopfully we have a nice strong number on Monday to maybe indicate all our embies are sunggled in.. I'll keep you posted...

robin - Don't stress. A lot of people, even normal pregnancies have some kind of spotting.
Karen - where are you, patiently waiting.
As far me, doesn't look good. I had a 19mm cyst with my u/s. Just waiting for blood work but figure I am either on lupron for another week or just canceled.

To_Have_Fune.... Thanks. I feel better today. I think I just need a good sleep. I feel fine... the only thing I do feel are the pulsating pains in my lower belly. Nothing major, just very active ovaries I hope.
JDC... I was told the only meds I can take are Regular Strength Tylenol for headaches or pain. ANd for my cold it would be Regular Sudafed with nothing added. I didnt take Sudafed for my cold, I just let it ride out on its own. Which today I woke up with no sore throat so I guess it should be leaving my system already.
I go tomorrow for my 2nd scan US. I hope to hear good news, especially since they lowered my Follistim shots to 200u.
Good Luck everyone.
