Foreverlove & JDC Thanks for your words of encouragement. I know you could be right. I need to keep this in perspective!!

JDC GOOD LUCK tomorrow with your next U/S, hopefully they will see your little one clear and strong on the screen this time, and i seriously hope the weather holds out for you. This is no fun at all !!!!!

Detroit ---Wishing you a Happy and Healthy 9 months!!![

JDC - Keeping my fingers crossed for you and that you have an awesome u/s tomorrow.

Kas - A lot of women bleed before their BFP. I think a lot of times bleeding and IVf go hand in hand. Like JDC just think of implantation bleeding and your little embie is just burrowing in for its 9 month journey.

Foreverlove and Annie - Hope you ladies are doing well in your 2ww. Only a few more day. YEAH!!!!

gina - Hoping you made it to your U/S ok. Another reason i thought about that is against going to a new RE clinic is that it is farther away. If I am cycling in Feb I know i will get stuck driving in a snow storm. not good at all.

not hopeless yet - How are you doing? When is your next appointment?

For me I am just waiting my time for Tuesday when I will finally find out my next step. I got all the billing info from the new Re's office and wasn't very happy to know that I would be out $2000 if my cycle was canceled for any reason. I just don't like that. i guess i have been spoiled with my insurance. Between my 2 insurances I have only paid about $200 for medical stuff and that is after 3 canceled cycles and a BFN cycle. Yes, I know I am spoiled. I wouldn't still be here if it wasn't for insurance. I so hope that the government will wake up and madate insurnce coverage for every state.

hi all! well i'm thrilled that i finally have some time and energy to do some personals....

JDC- i'm praying for an excellent u/s for you tomorrow..i do not think this is over for you! i BELIEVE....hope you do too- talk to god, even if you don't believe...talk to something. ask for it to happen.

detroit!! wow congratulations!!!!!!

Revel in your wonderful news...it's a delight to receive this gift.

muchhope- i'm so glad baby c is persevering.. you deserve 3 healthy angels.

lynnie!!!! i'm SO HAPPY your beta is rising WOOHOOOO.... awesome.. and don't worry about the stabby pains..i've had them too. it's crazy hey- sometimes i freak out cause i get symptoms like stabby pains, and other times i freak out cause those symptoms stop... AM I EVER AT EASE?? try to stay out of analyzing it and away from the internet (looks who's talking ?!)

kas...please don't worry. all sort of strange things can come out of our bodies during the process of a healthy pregnancy..i'm a recent example of that... hang on..you're almost there. hugs to you.

chris- yes, the non-refundable part sucks. in my clinic it's 1000$.. sometimes i just remind myself of how i would feel if IVF didn't exist...i'd probably be saying things like "i'd pay anything to have a chance if treatment existed".. i know it sucks. we've put about 20 grand in so far..can't take much more (and that's all debt still)

hi gina- good luck with that ultrasound..hi wonder, foreverlove, and everyone else..

so i think i'm out of the woods with this hematoma...i've only had minor spotting since then, and it's all old blood, which is reassuring. OB said if i make it through the next week without m/c'ing...problems are likely over...and the week is half done!! so i'm optimistic..

love to all, karen

Thank's for all the help... Just hate the waiting game. I have had some shooting pain's down below. It's not cramp's but , it come's and goes. it start's from the bottom and work's it's way to the top of my utrus. again thank's forall your help.

JDC · Post by **JDC** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 1:48 pm

I had my u/s and it is not good news. The gestational sac is the exact same size as 2 days ago (only 4mm). At first RE said maybe it is ectopic, but then we remembered, I have no tubes! I just don't know what to think right now. One thing is for sure - this is not a viable pregnancy. I think there is still a one in a million chance I can have ectopic w/out tubes because there is still a very tiny area left in uterine cavity that would have been leading into the tubes where ectopics can occur. It will be interesting to see what they think when I get my phone call - probably in a few hours.

I cried, but now I am cold and bitter. I hate being like this.

Kas101 · Post by **Kas101** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 2:03 pm

JDC This should not be happening to you. This is so unfair and horrible news. I dont blame you one bit for feeling bitter and cold - its a natural way of blocking out pain. My heart truly goes out to you here

Berning SOunds like those pains could be a good sign from all the symptom reading i have been doing. Not long to go now.....

wonderce · Post by **wonderce** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 2:10 pm

JDC, I am so sorry. I wish there was a way to comfort you somehow. Your tears and bitterness are totally understandable. Please keep us posted if you feel like it because it seems there are others here that can relate. I hope you get some sort of resolution once you get the call.

foreverlove · Post by **foreverlove** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 2:49 pm

JDC - I am so sorry for what you are going thru - this is just awful and you shouldn't have to go thru this. Know that you are not alone we are all here for you. Sending a Big Hug your way!!!

berning2005 - I am having pain down there too - sometimes shooting pains, other times just feels completely sore when I move around. Sometimes it feels like some pressure, so strange.

KAS - I hope you are feeling more settled and your bleeding has stopped. I have been praying for you.

chris - I am praying for you too and I hope that Tue brings you some great news for your new cycle.

Not much going on here, just a little sore at times. I swear these estrogen patches SUCK! Once again I had to change them this morning and I swear it would be less painful if I was duct tape off my stomach than these things. I still cant believe I am this close to finding out if this cycle worked - for some reason I have a feeling it didn’t, but only god knows at this point.

TGIF!!!!

JDC - I was just in an awesome mood because a gal on another board just got her BFP, but now after reading your post I am just pissed. You have every right to be bitter and cold. I am so sorry you have to go through this, it just isn't fair. ((((HUGS))), I know there isn't much we can say that will help you for now. Just know that we are here for you.

not hopeless yet · Post by **not hopeless yet** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 3:17 pm

JDC so sorry to hear things aren't looking good. Please hang tough and know we're here for you.

Karen thank god the hematoma is shrinking.

As for me I had more blood/u.s. today... so far only 6 follies measuring 11 and up. I'm sure they'll call later today with next appt. I assume they'll want to see me on Sun. and I'm hoping to have another handful of mature ones by then.

JDC · Post by **JDC** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 4:09 pm

Thank you to everyone for your support - it really helps. Well, they are torturing me because they want me to continue with PIO and go in on Monday for a last u/s for a final diagnosis. Apparently they will be able to see more at that time and then we can tell what we are dealing with. My nurse said it is very unlikely ectopic ( I really hope she is right because I don't want to take that mexletextrate or whatever it's called!) And to top it off, Monday is our wedding anniversary. My hcg was only 2000 up from 1600 2days ago, so there is no doubt my little one will not grow.

JennJenn · Post by **JennJenn** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 4:16 pm

Hi ladies. I have been viewing posts but not posting myself. I wanna say congrats to the BFPs. I am very excited for all of you. JDC- I am going to say a little prayer for you and prayerfully, everything will be fine. Have faith. We are here for you.

lynniecat · Post by **lynniecat** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 5:34 pm

JDC--

I am so sorry to hear your news. I always hated when people said they are sorry and and I want them to say they are pissed off for me! That is what I am for you. This stuff is SO unfair. We think we get that BFP and we are done, its this goal, oh no...but it does not end there, then there are all the issues that can arise. I had a gestational sac that was small like this earlier this year as part of a twin pg. I was able to think, hey at least there is the other one (which I lost later on). Its awful, its tiring and its just maddening! I hope you find some peace or a miracle happens for Monday!

Kas101 · Post by **Kas101** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 10:41 pm

foreverlove Thanks for your prayers, i believe we all really need them right now....

I am still having the dark brown blood. It stopped yesterday evening and overnight and now its back. Its not a flow, but theres some spotting most times i check and a little more each time i wipe (sorry) this cant be good.... are any of you other ladies here in the 2ww exeriencing this or any other symptoms?
