I am sad to report that I got a BFN. I am too sad to go into any things. So frustrated. I still wish the best for all of you.

Mrs.Cutter, I am so, so sorry. I was thinking of you yesterday and I figured when we didn't hear from you that it wasn't good news. Please take care of yourself and know that we are all thinking of you.

Rhonda - So sorry about your BFN. I was figuring that is what you had since you hadn't posted in a few days. I know it is hard. We get our hopes up so much and then get let down. Will you be able to do another cycle? wishing you the best in whatever you do in life.
JDC - Congrats on being PUPO !!!!
Kas - Hope you are doing better with your allergic reaction. Starting the day after I graduated from High School (long long time ago) I started getting hives. Never figured out what was causing them. I had to take benadryl everyday to keep them at least controlled a little. I hate benadryl, i was like a walking zombie. The hives lasted for about 6 months or so. Then they just finally cleared up. Now ever once in a while they come back but I still don't know what causes them.
Much Hope - Glad to see that you are doing well. How was your Thanksgiving?
bell-02 - Wishing you the best of luck on Tuesday. Are you gonna POAS?
Pixelgirl - Congrats on your 2 embies. That is awesome. You will be so glad that you did IVF instead of and IUI when you get that BFP. That is so funny about the cookies and crafts. Plus with the cookies and crafts you can stow them away when you don't want them. In 9 months you won't be able to do that. Hope you are feeling better today. Keep us posted on your transfer.
jandc33 - How is the 2ww going?
Karen - Relax - I know it is hard especially after what happened with your previous cycle. Keep us posted with your u/s results.
So I enjoyed my Thanksgiving. I just love mash potatoes and gravy. Yum. Now I have to get some school work done. I have a 10 page paper due at the end of next week and haven't even started. Yes, I am a procrastinator. I hate school. I am going to the new RE for a second opinion on Dec 11th. Just right around the corner. I will see what he has to say. I really do want to switch to this RE but it will be a lot more hassle. This RE is not appart of any insurance group, so I would have to pay out of pocket for everything and then fight the insurnace to get my money back. At this point I don't even know if my insurance will pay for this RE. I am switching insurances in January so I will have to do some investigation into that once I have more info on my new insurance. Why can't anything be easy?
Good luck to everyone.
Chris

Hello ladies-
Mrs Cutter-my thoughts and prayers are with you through this difficult time.
Kas- I was having itchiness and redness from Lupron and the stims when I was injecting them in my leg so I switched to my stomach and that seemed to do the trick. I would just switch sides of my stomach everyday so perhaps that will help.
JDC- Gluck with those little embies-hopefully they are fighters!
Pixie-What a great attitude you have, I really admire how you are remaining so positive. I'm sure that positiveness is reaching those embies and I am hoping you are able to make it to transfer.
Chris-Sorry to hear about your cancelled cycle but glad to hear you are sticking around-your support means a great deal and I am hoping that your next cycle, whenever it will be, will bring you a BFP.
LadyJ-Hows 2 ww going?
As for me I am navigating the 2WW. Dec 4 doesn't seem so far away with the holiday having been yesterday. To be honest I'm nervous about going next Thursday because I like knowing that at least for right now those little embies may or may not be growing inside me. Some moments I feel like this def worked and others I am not. Everytime a negative thought enters my mind though I am literally chasing it away.
Gluck to you all, you are in my thoughts!!!!

Prayin4BFP, how did your b/w and sono go today? Your follies seem to be coming along just fine.
Waitingfor4, glad you're able to overcome your feelings towards your sis-in-law. Wow, possible parents twice! Hope you enjoyed your massage. You just gave me a good idea.
Chris, sorry you are officially cancelled. You really do deserve your time and it will come. Best of luck with the new RE. Hopefully switching will give a 2nd opinion and bring other treatment options that your first RE never tried. And maybe your new RE will be covered by your new insurance so you won't have to fight for reimbursements. I'll be looking for your update after 12/11. Good luck!
Detroit, I'm not familiar with elevated LH before transfers. Did you say you have another u/s tomorrow? Hopefully you'll be able to go ahead with the FET next week.
Kas, glad to hear you are getting started. I hate you're having such a hard time though. Maybe the half doses of Lupron with the Benadryl will make the itching at least manageable until you're finished. How long will you be on it?
Karen, is your u/s today? I know it really helped reassure me and hope it does the same for you. Let us know how it went!
Pixelgirl, glad to hear your ER went well! So it sounds like you'll have your ET tomorrow. Did you get another fertilization report today? You seem to be in a really good place. Wishing the best for you and your DH!
JDC, congrats on the ET and being PUPO! I'm sending you lots of PMA for your 2ww.
Rhonda, I was so sorry to hear your news and hope you are finding a way to get through this difficult time. I'm thinking of you and hoping you'll come here if you need to talk more.
Jandc, it sounds like you're handling the 2ww just fine. Keep the PMA and will be looking for your post next Thursday. Keep chasing those negative thoughts away!
Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. I've been dealing with some sickness, so I couldn't eat the turkey or some of the sides, but was able to munch on a few good things.

Mrs Cutter Very sorry to hear about your BFN 
To Have Fun Glad you are getting a second opinion with a new RE. At least someone will be looking at your situation with a fresh pair of eyes and i think that will help. Dont even mention insurance....
As for me my hives are much worse and i spoke to my RE first thing and we decided to quit Lupron. They are all over my body, some are as big as a fist and its still not easing off at all. I'm also knocked out from the benadryl so today is not a good day and i just feel like doing a lupron flare protocol without lupron is not really going to work I will now be taking extra menopur to compensate and i took the first shot already.
I feel quite low over this as this was going to be my time, but there is always some big drama and disaster that then ruins my PMA and makes my cycle an uphill battle. I feel like my chances just fell through the floor. My RE said lets wait and see what's going on at the next U/S, so i'm not exactly filled with confidence

Hello ladies. I hope that everyone had a good holiday! Thanks ladies on your congratulations: Kas, waiting for 4, pixiegirl, sloan88, wonderce, foreverlove, gina1234, to have fun, karen, praying4BFP and everyone else. I just love the support and encouragement on this board. 
gina1234 Glad to see that everything is still going well with you and I hope that it continues to go well.
praying4BFP I am that your follies are growing well. Sorry I can't comment about the Antagon because I didn't have to add it to my cycle. But I hope that everythings stays on because I'm sure you can't wait for your BFP.
t_have_fun08 Thanks for that lovely cartoon/BFP. I am so sorry that your cycle had to be canceled again. You so deserve your BFP and I will be praying that you get exactly that in your next cycle. Enjoy that good Christmas gift you're going to get yourself and thanks for being such a wonderful cheerleader!
mrscutter I am so sorry to hear about your BFN. Take some time for yourself but don't give up, you will get your BFP. I will be praying for you.
detroit2007 Welcome back! Unfortunately, I can't comment on elevated LH because I have never experienced that but I hope that everything works out for you.
JDC Congrats on ET. Now comes the hard part, the dreaded 2ww but you'll get through it just fine. Just stay as busy as possible! Can't wait to get the good news about your BFP!
Kas101don't be so hard on yourself. Having that allergic reaction could've happened to anyone, since we don't know how we will respond to the meds. I know how irritating that must be but I really hope it gets better for you soon.
Rosario I hope that you don't have any problems getting your med records from your previous clinic. I would like to suggest that once you get your records from them, make a copy for your own personal records prior to giving them to your new RE. Also, throughout the course of your current IVF cycle, you may also want to ask for copies of your med records for your own keeping. I had to go through a very similar situation about 2yrs ago, so now I have my own copies of my medical records, that way I can take them to any doctor instead of relying on someone to send them. Good luck though, I hope they have more than that 1 page and I hope they don't give you a hard time.
pixiegirl Congrats on the 2 fertilized eggs and I'm sure they'll make it to the ET. Now you're a step closer to getting your BFP. Hope you're feeling better from your ER, your ET should be less painful.
Karen If waiting to have the u/s is anything like the 2ww, then I know you're going crazy. But hang in there, everything is just fine!
jandc33 I know what you mean about the negative thoughts during the 2ww. I experienced those too and had to literrally chase them away as well and think positive. Can't wait until Thurs to hear the good news!
wonderce sorry you weren't feeling good on yesterday,. I hope you're feeling much better today.
As for me, my 2nd beta was done today and it is 153 so I am so happy it has risen. I was a little nervous this morning but I am glad that my numbers are continuing to rise. I go for my 3rd beta on Tuesday and my IVF nurse says that once my #s rise above 1500 I'll have my 1st u/s because they should be able to see something by them. They want me to have a total of 4 beta testings and 2 u/s before they release me to my OBGYN which is good I guess, but this isn't covered under IVF so now I'm paying a $50 copay every couple of days and I don't like that! I think it should have been covered but oh well! Excuse me for venting there. I know I'm going to pay it because I want to make sure all is still going well.
To all of you that I didn't do personals on I hope that you're doing good and hanging in there. Everyone have a good weekend!

thanks to everyone for their positive encouragement and best wishes - it has really helped to keep me grounded these last few days.
mrscutter - i'm so sorry to hear about your news. please know that you are in all our thoughts and prayers!
as for me, i started feeling a whole bunch better yesterday around noon and was suprised at how much better i felt than i did on weds. the cramps for ER really died down a whole bunch.
tomorrow morning is my ET and though i've managed to stay really mellow and calm the last few days and even my acupuntuncturist said today that my chi is optimal (shocking!) - i'm starting to get nervous. i mean i know that we'll be fine whatever way it goes but literally closure could come as early at 8am from a call saying that our eggs didn't make it. if we don't hear from them, we're just to go in for our ET appt so i think if the phone rings, i'm going to be in "OH SHIT!" mode!
hope everybody has a good night and baby dust all around!

hi everyone! glad to hear the US 'ers had a good thanksgiving here in canada, we had ours back in october.
i'm doing good- had the u/s today- 1 embie, measuring at 6 wks, 4 days (which we are at today ), and a "good" heartbeat of 121 bpm.
the sonographer couldn't see another embie...i guess there's still a slight chance another is in there, as it does happen this early....but.
i feel sad the other one is likely not there. but relieved about my so-far healthy pregnancy. i'm a bit detached too- i'm realizing that this is harder for me than the 2 ww- and it's because of my m/c last time..this is the stage that scares me. i successfully got PG before, so i was confident it could happen again. but i didn't make it through the 1st trimester. but so far, this is better than our 1st u/s last time- last time the fetus measured a week smaller than was is, and the heartbeat was low- 94 bpm at 7wks 3days.
and i was a hormonal mess yesterday at work. people noticed. very emotional. my beta doubled appropriately (every 86 hrs now) and is at 29,775 anyways, enough about me.
rhonda- i'm so sorry for your negative result. the disappointment must be so hard for you. please stay connected to us.
kas- sorry to hear about your hives. wow- nothing is simple hey? i hope going off the med will resolve it without complicating anything else.
pixelgirl- congrats on making it to this point. your gratitude is inspiring
wishing4- congrats on your second beta!! awesome
sorry- i'll have to do more personals later, and i plan to update the board too- time for dinner, DH is making it and got sparkling mango juice for me to celebrate our viable pregnancy.! much love ,karen

Mrs. Cutter...I am so sorry about BFN. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Karen...glad to hear you are doing well and your little bean is plugging along. MMMM...sparkling mango juice!
Many thoughts to everyone...I am so bad at the whole personals thing. I always seem to lose my train of thought when I am typing~
Anyway went for more BW and another sono today. I am sorry to say I just cant stand the sonographer at RE office. I have tried so hard to be nice and ask questions, smiling and lots of "Good Mornings" etc and she is still so cold. I am lucky she says 2 words to me and she is not all that gentle with the vaginal sonogram if you know what I mean. I ask all the time how things looks, how are the follies etc and all I get is a fine...SIGH. The nurse told me yesterday things looked good and some were at 14mm, some at 12. Still trying to figure out how many there are but everyone always seems in such a rush to get off the phone. I am being sensitive but still. Hopefully whoever calls me today will be more friendly. I am now on 3 Bravelle and 1 and a half of Menapur plus the additional Antagon shot. My legs hurt. Sorry to be a downer. I need a hug.

Still trying to figure out how many there are but everyone always seems in such a rush to get off the phone. I am being sensitive but still. Hopefully whoever calls me today will be more friendly. I am now on 3 Bravelle and 1 and a half of Menapur plus the additional Antagon shot. My legs hurt.
Sorry to be a downer. I need a hug.Hello ladies.... I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I ate so much and enjoyed every bite.
jandc.... Thanks for asking about me. My 2ww is driving me nuts. I feel so much better now, I havebeen drinking so much water and urinating so much that my ovary pain has died out. I can actually toss and turn in bed without be sore. The only thing I am concentrating now is on my uterus pains. I have had no implantation bleeding which i am kind of sad on but I have had uterus pains.. actually I felt them Thursday night.Now I just feel bloated. I dont feel nothing unusual.. just have some naseau spells but I beleive they may be due to the meds. I am constipated, so I have been eating prunes. ANd I feel tired even though I have been sleeping good.
My wait is 6 days away.... aaaahhh I can just scream, but I am trying to relax. I really do hope and pray I get my BFP.
Jandc.... Good Luck on your results on Thursday... I hope u get your BFP.
msCutter.... I am so sorry for your BFN. I am praying for you and your DH.
Karen.... Congrats on your little bean. Sounds like a great HB.
Pixel.... Good Luck tomorrow on your ET. You will do great.
To_Have_fun... I am so so sorry that they canceled your cycle., You are one that deserves your chance especially with all the suport u give to us. I really hope and pray that if u do another cycle... you will get thru this time and get what your heart so desires.
BBL.....

My hives (now too big to be called that) doubled in size and spread to most of my body ast night. Overnight they just got so painful and my writs swelled up. I was also red hot to touch and super itchy but my skin was painful to touch.
We paged my RE at 7am and following an emergency appointment, i was admitted to hospital. I have a severe form of allergy with a fancy name so i had an IV of fuids, anti-inflammatories, anti-itchiness and an IV of steroids. I have just got back and i'm going to bed as i couldnt sleep last night due to the pain and my meds have made me sleepy.
He has cancelled my cycle i am so sad. He says we can try again in January and i will follow up with him in a week or two when i have recovered

I'm sad for you because I know you were still hoping to proceed. It sounds like your allergic reaction was really scary and glad you knew to page your RE and get admitted so they could take care of it. I hope at least the meds they gave you will help with your pain and itchiness. I know it probably still seems a world away, but with the holidays upon us, hopefully the weeks will fly by and you can get started in January.
LadyJ, keep hanging in there. I know, easier said than done right? It sounds like you've been feeling pretty good and am hoping the best for you. Will you do an HPT or just wait it out? I will say a prayer for you and hope you get your BFP.
Prayin4BFP, hugs to you. Sorry you have a crabby sonographer. They need to find a new one if that's the way she treats all of the patients. It sounds like your follies are coming along though, and that's good. When will you go for another sono? Do you know when your ER is yet?
Karen, congrats on the u/s and good heartbeat. Going through m/c must be so difficult and can understand your concern. But it sounds like everything sounds great for you right now and has been no reason to think otherwise. I feel like I should quit worrying too. Your DH was sweet to fix dinner and get some sparkling juice to celebrate. Hope you enjoyed!
Pixelgirl, glad you are feeling better. Let us know how the ET goes!
Wishing4blessings, that's good news about your beta. I'm sure the higher # was definitely reassuring. When will you go for your first u/s?
