Keep the faith. I still really have no symptoms and I have 3 little beans in there. Some of us just are lucky without having to bare all the morning sickness, and pains.
I am however always tired.. I have become the queen of nap time..
My thoughts are withyou and DH tomorrow.

hi all. hate to be a downer, but i'm having a hard time- STILL. i know i shouldn''t complain...being PG and all. i'm just so anxious it sucks. i feel really disconnected, kinda numb. the people i've told about being PG are all like gushing and happy for me and i'm so not there. god help me get through the next month.
i've had some spotting too. i don't think it's anything to worry about. light brown, nothing heavy. but i don't think anything could give me peace of mind right now. that m/c in june has messed me up.
i so hope you ladies out there get your BFP's. i know several have beta's coming up..or are in stims. i wish you the best.
and those who've gotten negatives...i'm so sorry and wish you peace and comfort as you move through your next stages; whichever direction you go.

sorry for the self-absorbed posting with no personals. my heart's just hurting tonight.

I know it is early ( 5 days post transfer), but I know it didn't work. I have no soreness in my boobs and that has always been my telltale sign all the other times I got pregnant (but never got to full term!). I am really bitter right now, I will admit that. This was my last try.

Karenvancouverisland sorry you're feeling anxious and don't feel bad for venting on these boards. We're all here for you and just a few more weeks til you're out of the woods.
Much Hope OMG congrats on the triplets. My Sis-in-Law has 2 yr old triplet boys - all healthy Thank God. She went on bedrest around week 23 and delivered week 28. All babies were home before their actual due date and now you'd never know they were premies. I love them so much and it's so neat to see their different personalities. Also, two of the triplets are identical and you know how people say twins definitely have their own language? Well those two are always conversing!
Bel02 I'm thinking of you this morning and praying for a positive beta.

Well, it was negative, just like we thought. Thanks for everyone's notes and support through all of this. I totally expected this but it still hurts so much.
We're going to meet with our RE in the near future to discuss what to do next. I think we'll do another round of IVF in the spring/summer since we only have 2 frozen embryo's left and they might not make it through the thawing process since they are our last ones.
Take care all.

KKE _ CONGRATS ON YOUR BFP !!!!!
Much Hope - Congrats on your triplets. That is such cute picture you posted.
Kas - Keeping my fingers crossed for you at your u/s today. Hoping everything goes smoothly from now on.
JDC - Don't worry just yet, It is still early. Tomorrow you will be complaining that your boobs are really sore.
bell-02 - Sorry about your BFN. I know it just keep getting harder and harder to keep moving on. Maybe I will be cycling with you in the Spring. Wishing you the best.
Karen - Seems that you are having a really hard time. Maybe after you hit the 12 week mark your spirits will rise. You have every right to feel the way you do, just take it one step at a time. Before you know it your little baby will be born.
Hope everyone else is good.

Hi Ladies..... Sorry I havent posted in a few. I am back at work and trying to catch up on the work they had waiting for me. 
Anyway, let me start with my personals.
JDC... It may still be too early to feel any symptoms. And just becasue u alaways feel sore boobs in other PG, it may be different on this one. Remember all PG are different. I really do hope u get your BFP. Maybe the embies havnt implanted yet either. MY RE told me that implantation can take 3-5 days from ET maybe even longer so give it a few more days.
[/b]Karen... I am so sorry that you are feeling this way and beleive me it is understandable. I am not going to be one to say, I understand becasue I dont only to a point. I was hurt when I was PG and I had to terminate cuz I had a Tubal Eptopic. And even though I was only 10wks at the time, it still hurts, especially when u want to be PG so bad. ANd then being PG now and with all that estrogen in you, of couse u r going to really feel sad and scared. Karen, you greive all u want for your past MC, but also be happy for the one u have growing inside of u right now. U have to be strong for your baby. My thoughts and prayers are with you Karen. PS>... did you finish your report?
BELL... where r u hun? Good Luck with your beta today... keep us posted. Hope u got your BFP.
Sloan... Glad to here your baby is growing so wonderful. Wow, 8 wks already. As for the condition u have, I have never heard of it. Well, then follow the Drs advice and hopefully all turns out well. Good luck Sloan.
MUCHHOPE... 3 little babies... OMG how sweet. God Bless and God Bless baby C, she will be fine, just needs to catch up with the other 2 and that will happen in no time. Keep us posted for sure. Triple congrats to you.
Gina... Thanks. I am almost there, 3 more days. ANd good luck to you at your US on the 12th. Hope your 2 little ones stuck. Good Luck.
JANDC... I'm holding up. I cant beleive I have 3 days left. DO you think if I do an HPT tomorrow, it should give a result if I am? They werent lying when they said that the 2WW was going to be hard. Good luck with your BETA on Thursday. Hope u get your BFP as well.
Pixelgirl... Congrats on your ET... welcome to the 2WW. It will be exciting.
TKAT... I am so sorry for your BFN. I was really hoping for a better outcome for you. Next time will be the one for you. Good Luck.
To anyone I have missed... I am so sorry. I hope u r doing well.
As for myself, I have 3 days left for my PG test. I am trying so hard not to cave in. I have 2 FRHPT at home from my last time I thought I was PG. DO u think if I test tomorrow with my FMU, it should give me a result? I will be 10dp3dt. I am currently doing 1ml of POI daily and I wear 2 Vivelle Dot estrogen patches that I have to change every 3 days. SO the following are my symptoms and I dont know if I should take them as PG symptoms or symptoms of the meds. I have had these symptoms for the last few days and they seem to get more noticable as the days go by...
Urinating alot more
Hungrier
Lower pelvic pains (nothing TBC of)
vivid dreams/nightmare
lowerback pain
A very bad cold that came back 2nd time in Nov.
Headache
SOre (o)(o)
and the most questionable is NASEAU... it started on or about Sunday, and has gotten worse. I have gagged a few times, but naseau speels all day. ANd today, my co-worker stood next to me and I smelled some BO on her that made me more naseau.
I have had NO implantation bleeding.
I still feel bloated, some of my jeans close now but they feel tight, and since I still feel bloated so it actually hurts when I close them, so I am sitting here at my desk with my button undone.
Could the Vivelle Dot patches or POI cause all those symptoms?

Bell, I'm so sorry about your negative. It must still be hard even if you anticipated it. It's good to hear that you are thinking about another try next year though. Best wishes to you and sorry you are hurting.
Kke, it sounds like you have good news and will wait to see your update on Friday! I'm not familiar with thyroid #'s but someone else might have some info.
JDC, sorry you are feeling down. I hope you can stay positive until you know for sure. I'm wishing the best for you.
Karen, hugs to you and hope you start feeling better about being PG soon. I'm sure it's hard when you've had a m/c before. Could you call your RE to maybe get some additional testing along the way for reassurance?
Elida, I know I already congratulated you but wanted to say again how blessed you must feel with 3 little girls snuggled in. I am praying that baby C fights her way through.
Sloan, it sounds like you're coming right along. That's great news. Sorry about your clot and to hear you are having to take it easy. I'm sure everything is fine and will be good to rest easy until your next u/s. When will that be?
Gina, doing good, thanks for asking. Hope you are too! I am still struggling with lots of nausea. I'm debating whether to start Zofran but don't want to take unless necessary. I won't be getting any more beta #'s but 2nd u/s is next Monday. I know you must be getting excited for your 1st u/s. Keep us posted.
Jandc, good luck to you Thursday!!
Kas, glad to hear you're feeling better. Thank goodness you are healing from those terrible hives. I'm hoping your appt went well today. Let us know your plan.

Hello ladies-
Lots of postings so I am going to try and get all the personals in, my apologies if I miss anyone.
Karen: You have every right to be nervous and scared, especially with the timing of things. I am hoping that you will have smooth sailing through your pregnancy-you deserve it. I am sorry you are having such a difficult time right now, but what better place to vent then with others who understand.
Sloan-Thanks for the advice on the spotting, it really made me feel a little better & TAKE IT EASY! Dr.'s orders
Tkat-Im so sorry 8 ( 8 ( Thinking of you during this difficult time!!!
JDC-I can def relate to you, some days it feels like it so worked and others I am so down and think I am kidding myself that it worked. Hang in there!
Bell-My condolences on your loss, its so difficult and please know you are in my thougts.
Lady J-Some of those symptoms sounded similar to mine and others (the more common pregnancy symptoms) not so much. If you feel comfortable taking a test 2mor go for it. I am holding off as I am too nervous about getting a negative and then trying to keep my spirits up for the real beta on Thurs. You should know that someone on another post said they took HPT on day 9, 11, and 13 and it only came back positive on the 13th when she was going for her beta so just be cautious. I took HPT's my last cycle and they were negative and I was so bummed by the time my beta came and I felt like if I had been more positive it might have helped. Who knows but keep me posted on how you make out tom.
Hav: Hows the spotting going?
KKE: CONGRATS!!!!
I know I def missed people but I am thinking about you all.
As for me the spotting stopped today which I was so relieved about. Last time once my spotting started it just got heavier and heavier and of course it was a BFN. Its weird though because my back hurts and I feel slightly crampy like I should get my period but then I am thinking that no maybe its a sign I am pregnant but then I am just thinking that I am in denial about not being pregnant. This 2 WW is really traumatic!!!!!!Anyone experience those sort of symptoms where they thought they were getting their period but ended with BFP???
Hang in there everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your advice and support have really gotten me through this 8 )
