Wow I haven't been on here for a couple days!! Donni, Addie is SO cute, and she is already changing fast!! I can't believe she's already a month old! Thanks for putting up pictures, they are all great!! She looks like such a happy baby!! Glad you had fun in Oceanside, I went there once. It was when I was about 16ish, and me and my friend went with her mom. The hotel we stayed at I remember was like on a penninsula with the ocean all around. So pretty. Looks like Addie liked her Ocean trip too!!

Well better go, dinner's cookin'!!!

Ok Girls,

Nobody is around. Where is everyone? I am going to have to share my story with someone!! Hopefully one of you is still out there!

Well, DH really wanted to try again, and as you know, I was not so for it. I was finished as far as I was concerned.

We decided to get another opinion and switched RE's.
This RE changed my protocol totally....nothing was the same.
I thought, 'why would he mess with something that worked the first time?"
so I thought no way is this going to work.

I cycled in November and this group of meds kicked my @ss! I was exhausted and p'd off and swore at my husband that this was the absolute LAST time I was going through this!
I told absolutely no one that I was doing this again. Just tired of all the explanations.

Well,
I got my BFP yesterday!

:D

My first beta was 610!

I go back tomorrow to make sure it is doubling.


I hope you girls are still out there, I am in tears I am so happy. and still in a bit of shock
:shock:
I am hoping this is not some cruel cruel IVF joke and everything will work out.

Miss you guys

OH MY GOODNESS BETH!!! I check here all the time! ALL THE TIME! But no one has really been around and I have felt bad posting about Addy so I just wait for someone else to post. I am so incredibly happy for you. I agree with Faith you sneaky little preggo lady! Your number is amazing. How many days past are you and how many did you put in there??? This is such great news! I am so happy for you. Now don't disappear, you have to keep us posted on everything. :D :D :D :o

Faith ~ Soooo.... FET this month? How was your sisters wedding?

Barbarella ~ Belly pics...belly pics (as I bang my hands on the desk). How's your little boy doing in there?

Laura ~ Thinking of you!

OK...got some more pics. Some from today so I have to post them. I am home early from work - went back last week - so sad. I will post them in a few minutes - have to download them.

Hi all!!

Beth- Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!! That is just great news! I am so happy for you! That's a great beta! You must be so thrilled. I don't blame you at all for telling no one- it's so much more fun to shock us all! How are you feeling? I only get on here once in awhile now at night when I'm working like now. Again, congratulations!!! I get your bump post now too- cute!!

Donni- Addy is so cute!!!! I just love the pics you posted- she is adorable! I bet it's hard to be back to work- are you full time? Glad she is doing well.

Faith- Did you have your sister's wedding yet? Are you doing a FET soon? Hope all is going well!

Barbarella- Hope you are feeling good! When are you due again?

We are closing on a new house next week and are moving out to the farmlands on 5.5 acres so we are really excited. Still not sure if we are done forever or not- we'll see...maybe we'll just see if we ever have a miracle natural pregnancy but I doubt we will...

Take care all, Laura

Hey girlies!
Yay! Everyone posted!
Hey Donni don't ever feel bad about posting about Addy! I love the pictures you put on here! You better keep em' coming!

Beth did you get your next beta?? I am also curious how many you put in this time! This is so exciting!

Laura good to hear from you! Congrats on the house! Me and Dh also live on a 5 acre ranch and we love it. My parents live nextdoor so it's great to have them nearby.

My sisters wedding went great, it was fun even though I had to wear a dress, lol. I'll keep you all posted when we are going to do our next FET.
Off to Oregon tomorrow to visit the inlaws for Christmas. It'll be cold, cold, cold. Bye you all!

Hello everyone!

I am so glad you all are still out there! It's good to hear from all of you...

Laura, 5 acres! the sounds awesome! I hope your close went well.

Donni, Addy is so precious! Definitely keep posting pictures. It must be hard for you to go back to work. Who gets to watch her while you are working?

Faith, my girl...I hope you have a nice trip to Oregon. If you really want to feel the cold, come to Chicago! what is next for you? Don't you have like 300 frosties left?

Barbarella, I hope all is well and you are feeling great.

My second beta was 1900, I guess you can say it's doubling! :lol:
I go for a u/s on Dec. 22nd to check for heart beat. I am not too excited yet, I am very weary. I know so much can go wrong, I am just trying to go on normally with life. Well, as much as I can. I am tired all the time and trying to keep up with DD. Our house is a disaster, I don't have the energy to clean. (At least that's what I tell DH! LOL)

Donni, you had to help me with dpo last time, so let me see if I can figure this out...
we did a 5 day transfer,
2 embies
my first beta was day 15 after ER, I think that would be 10dp5dt?
my u/s will be on my 6 week mark... I am hoping that everything is great and I can get excited a little.

Keep posting girls!

Beth ~ That is an amazing 2nd number. WOW is all I can say. I know you are weary with all you've been through but with those numbers things are looking wonderful. Your DPO sounds correct and just so you know, I had very high numbers for single pregnancy and the RE nurse even thought I had more than one with my numbers and they were:

DPO........Mine...............Yours
15...........257 ...............610
17...........616 ...............1900
22...........3970 (5w1d) saw small sac

So, my thoughts are....prepare yourself for twins!!! Keep us updated! I am so happy for you!

I just love her so much I can't stop taking pictures!

Beth ~ Have you ever looked at betabase dot info??? Look up that web site, your numbers are even high for triplets!!! Did you do icsi? Maybe your embies divided!!! I can't wait until your ultrasound. When will that be by the way?

Hey Girls!

Glad things are going good Beth! I am starting to think you may have more than one too...hmmm? Guess you'll find out the 22nd. Yeah, we have 12 frosties left just chillin'! LOL.

Donni cute pictures!!! I love watching her change which is happening so fast! I love the one with her hands folded, you are right she's like a little lady!


How is the house coming along Laura??
