NY - You don't need those frozen guys. You have one or two brewing in you now. :lol:



I stopped BCP's 72 hrs ago and no sign of AF yet. Usually I start spotting a few days before full flow. UUGHHHH, I hate waiting. I think i am going to put on my white panties with no liner and see if she will come then. :lol:


Hope everyone is having a good day. It is cold and snowy here.

Good morning ladies, hope everyone is staying warm. It's supposed to be near 70 today so I'm excited for a little warmer weather.

Elida, it's great to hear from you. It sounds like you have a lot going on. I must say I'm jealous you are moving into a new house. :wink: We're already struggling with space issues and little one isn't even here yet. Hope you're feeling good these days.

Wishing4blessings, it sounds like your m/s is getting a little better. I can definitely relate but want to let you know that it miraculously disappeared right around 12 weeks, just like they say. I hope this happens for you too. It's so nice to be able to eat again and not feel nauseous all day. I went for b/w on Monday and also go next week to find out the results of our screening test. We had the nuchal and it was fine, but they did b/w at 12 weeks and again at 16 to compare the levels. I'm nervous and ready to have the results. Keep me posted on your's.

Kas, I hadn't heard the old wives tale about m/s. What if it was all day long? :D I thought there was one about the rate of the h/b too, like faster ones were girls and slower ones were boys? It's fun to try and guess. I think mine is a boy for some reason. I will know next week for sure! Are you feeling good other than the m/s?

NY, how are you feeling? Did I miss when you will have your beta test? I'm so excited for you!

Chris, I love your comment about the white panties. So true. Any signs of her yet? This whole process is all about the waiting huh?

Gina, sorry to hear about your heart murmur. I wish I had more info to share with you but I haven't experienced it or known of anyone with this issue. Did your doc have any input on how they will monitor it? I'm not familiar with exactly what a murmur is.

Karen, hope you're feeling better soon. Rest up! BTW, did I ever tell you that I love your nursery decor? I checked out the link you sent and it's really cute! I'm still looking at some different ideas but may get started after our appt next week.

NY - Can't wait for Monday!!!



AF is here, I go in tomorrow for baseline u/s and b/w. I hate the baseline appointment because so many times I have been canceled. I just hate IVF.

NY I PM'd you about the lovenox let me know if you didnt get it, i have found that previous ones i sent have vanished into thin air.... and i think the twinges etc are excellent signs... I forget, are you a POAS person or not??? I used to be but had my heart broken too many times and last cycle found it easier not to (plus it made it an amazing phone call to be told 'congratulations') roll on Monday!!!

To Have Fun GOOD LUCK on the baseline.... I know this is the worst part for you, but this time its different and once they get you started on stimming it will be plain sailing..... Keep us posted i will be checking several times tomorrow to see how you got on and will be sending you LOW LOW LOW e2 vibes :)

Wonderce Funny that you think its a boy... i bet you are right!! My mom said she knew early on with both me and my brother and she was right both times. My SIL also knew and was only looking at boys names way before she knew for sure. They both cant believe i dont know myself, but i havent told them its triplets yet, as i know from being on these boards that multiples often reduce and i dont want anyone to be bummed out if things change.... If i had to make a guess i would say at least one boy... i am feeling the boy vibes and DH is one of 4 boys himself, and he has a 17yr old son from his 1st marriage, and all his brothers have boys only, so he says he thinks his family only makes boys... Hmmmmm

Gina I also know nothing about the heart murmur, but i see you posted a general qestion about it.... I hope you get some good feedback from that, and let us know how you are doing :D

As for me, nothing is happening really. We get to have our next scan Friday 1.30 so i am excited but a little apprehensive and i AM VERY EXCITED as we have a moving date !!!!! Finally i get to go back home to sunny FL...we leave March 31st.

hey ladies thank you all for your posts i am just going crazy i have googled everything possible about heart murmur & i have also talked to afew people i know that have them & my mother in law & they said that it is possible that with all this extra weight on me & everything moving around it could have developed, but they no that they are not doctors.. tomorrow i go hear the beans hb again & i will chat with the doc to see what they say...other than that i am okay i just get alittle out of breath sometimes which doc also said is normal because i was small to start at & when i found out i was pregnant i was 110 pounds but before that i was about 97 pounds, but i was always in good shape so they think that it is because of pregnancy anyway i will keep u all posted big hugs to u all....i hope u are all doing well

hi all,

chris, i'm excited AF came for you. guess those undies worked. good luck with your baselines...we'll be anxiously awaiting.

NY- i'm soo excited about your beta !! woohoo! i'm looking forward to welcoming you to the pg side.

well. i think i need to vent, if you'll put up with me for that. feels like life is piling up on me and i'm getting that weird, detached feeling, or then i switch to bitchy and irritated, or i just cry.

to start, people at work are pissing me off. i told several people i'm PG, and they now somehow think it's ok to ask me obvious PG questions directly around other people who don't know; thinkng they're being discreet, or just NOT thinking. F%$*& !!!it gets me so angry. i know they are so excited for me, but they are selfish in this- i'm not ready to tell the world and get that kind of attention. They have NO idea how this feels. i told the 3 main culprits to back off, and they will, but the damage is done.

what bugs me the most about this is that WHEN i'm ready I want to tell people, NOT have them find out from a rumour or another's hints. i knew this was a risk i took when i decided to share with some, but i didn't imagine it'd feel this crappy when they blew it.

i'm thrilled to have our basement start to get finished, but i'm sick of having company. and my DH pissed me off tonight with sarcastic comments that i interpret as him making fun of me, i'm WAY TOO sensitive right now for that.

i feel guilty and unhealthy for not exercising regularly (I made a personal trainer appt today to get a PG program- so that's progress). i think i look pudgy instead of PG. AND i haven't heard the h/b in over 2 weeks and it's making me NUTS. i'm worried something is wrong, even though i have no logical reason to think so.

my OB"s office was closed today and i'll call in the am to see if i can drop by for a doppler. BASICALLY i'm kinda nuts right now. stressed.

sorry for the rant, but i am glad to get it out. my dh is going away on a 4 day scuba dive trip and my FIL is going home for 2 weeks. so i'm looking forward to a quiet weekend with the cat. i'll try to go to the gym too.

anyways, love to all, karen

Chris Thinking about you and still sending those low e2 vibes.....

NY We live on the north side of West Palm Beach - my first RE was in Boca about 30 mins south... we are hoping to move a bit further north though, as WPB is getting seedier and more dangerous and although we live in the burbs, i hate downtown, so last summer we looked around at some other areas (still east coast) and we love Brevard, Melbourne, all of the space coast but HATE daytona (very picky!!) Hoping to get settled SOON as i know time will fly......

Sounds like your symptoms are very positive and i cant wait to hear....

Karen I think your hormones are messing with your emotions and its completely normal. I am also finding myself easily irritated over nothing and i have freaked out and made a HUGE deal over nothing with my DH on a couple of occasions, i dont know how he puts up with me.... So i am right there with you, and i feel your frustrations here, especially over your co-workers, but try to relax (easy to say, i know) the other day i freaked over nothing, went out, slammed the door like a teenager, and took a walk round the block. By the time i came back i was much better - thats my only suggestion.. basically everyone will just have to put up with us for the next 6 months or so.... :wink:

As for me, i am here early bird on the laptop as i find it hard to sleep past 6am anymore no matter what time i go to bed.... I know most people need extra sleep when pregnant, so i have no idea why i am now an insomniac.....

Its not looking good so far. Don't know why but I already have a 13.5mm follicle/cyst. I can't believe this is happening again. The nurse doing my scan said it was no big deal, I pointed out that it was if it was producing Estrogen. She agreed. Mine always produce estrogen so looks like another screwed up cycle. Waiting to hear back from the nurse to see what my FSH and E2 levels are.


Kas - Glad to hear you have a moving day. I am sure you are sick of the cold, but you are going to be moving at the best time of the year, Spring. I love Spring.

Karen - So sorry you are having a rough time with people at work. Some people just don't know when to shut the heck up. Glad to see you basement is almost finish, but I would be with you I would be sick of company by now. I can be sociable for a while but after a few days I need to get in my own little place and not have anyone bother me.
