I’m also on the FET in Feb thread, and a list was helpful to keep track of where everybody was, so here’s my attempt. A few of us share the same dates – maybe that’ll be lucky. Our group’s grown quite a bit. Hope I got everybody correct – if not, let us know the latest.

I just got back from the dr...I did both a urine test and a blood test. Of course my blood test will not come back until tomorrow BUT my urine is a BFP!!!! We are so excited and trying not to be TOO excited because you never know! I go back on Wednesday for more blood work and an ultra sound.

I wanted to give you guys some recent symptoms:

Brief feelings of AF...at first were sporadic and now are a couple of times a day. But AF never visits! :wink: Sometimes I have twinges in my breast and twice I have been nauseas (but not daily.)

I hope I can give some of you hope as I really thought I was going to have ANOTHER BFN! I thought for sure with these feelings of AF I was doomed! Just hang in there and pray for the best as I will be praying with you! My journey is definitely NOT over! Pray for me!!!!!

Congrats Carmen!!! I hope some of your luck rubs off on me as well one of these times:) Although I'm expecting the worst. Everywhere I've read, it says breast changes(sore or bigger) are the 1st early symptom and everyone seems to have them. Mine have not done anything(I mean at all) different at athis month, which is slightly weird since around AF time they usually get a bit sore and bigger.

Also, I haven't received a call from my 7am beta yet(both previous BFN's they called twds the evening) so I'm guessing they would've called by now if it was anything good perhaps...I know I'm admitting defeat, but just getting ready for the worst. I just have this horrible feeling...cried the whole way to work from the clinic this AM:( and already set up a follow up for next steps w/ my current RE as well made a call for an appt w/ CCRM....wanted to do this now, as I when I find out for sure I don't think I'll be functioning for the day or 2:(

Goodluck to all you other ladies out there that have beta this week!

Way to go, Carmen! So glad we can start this off with a bang.

I am really anxiously waiting for clinic to call with the results. I hope they don’t wait unit 4:30! I almost took POAS this morning, but resisted. Now I wish I did. Uggghh.

Bubbles13, hang in there. I don’t think they hold off torture us. I think they need to wait ‘til the lab results come in, then there are a lot of calls to make. Carmen heard early since they also did urine.

Hooray. BFP! 1st beta was 41.

DH is crying. So happy, but still scared 'til we make it past our last record of 14 weeks.

Let's start a trend, ladies.

Hello everyone! I am new to posting. First and foremost Good Luck to all testing this week. As for me this is my third try. my FET was on Feb. 1 (4 frosties) testing is on feb. 12th. I have no more frosties left I dont have much longer to end the 2ww, but geeze i feel like the clock is ticking slowly. I had some cramping early on, and yesterday I had serious AF symptoms. should I be worried, has anyone experienced this with BFP. Dont wanna worry to much but its so hard not to. Once again good luck to all.

Congrats to Siouxsie and Carmen for their BFPs! This is greatly encouraging. Hoping that the rest of us will be as lucky. I'll continue to send positive vibes your way and to everyone on this board that the babies continue to grow to term. It sucks that some of you have to wait until tomorrow for results.

Siouxsie: Thanks for your encouragement from your earlier post. You're right I only need one sticky emby! Hope this little one will be as stubborn as I am

Bubbles13: I'm having a bad day, too. Starting last night I've had brown spotting. Not much... about 1 tbsp (tmi sorry) but enough to make me into a big pile of mush with wet soggy snot tissues spread all around. I know that sometimes spotting is common with IVF. I called my nurse and she said that it's common, don't read anything into it, stop the aspirin and to go on bedrest for the next 24 hours. Like you, I'm feeling despondent but I don't want negative stress vibes transmit to the embryo. I've stopped crying as of noon but that's coz I'm dehydrated. I bled with 1st IVF and had 1st beta of 90 then mc, I bled with 2nd IVF and it was BFN. I wish my beta was today so that way I can move on... Cheer up! As they say, it ain't over until its over. I'm gonna be positive coz there's really no other alternative. I just needed to cry and put snot all over my DH shoulders. I'm still hoping for a BFP for you.

RosiePosie: You can't trust a HPT. Hope your beta comes back with good results. Glad you made it to your appointment after all.

Good luck to all the other monday beta ladies. Good luck to ERT tomorrow!

Sorry to belabor the point but I took the liberty to update the list that Siouxsie compiled (coz brit1612 and I aren't on it):

BFP!!!! Beta was a 56!!! :D

I am so excited! I still can't believe it! It seems so surreal because we have NEVER gotten good news before! Let's hope Wednesday's beta number climbs!

So far the women on this thread are 3 for 3! That is a good sign for all the ladies waiting to test!

I am praying for everyone who are yet to test!

Baby dust to all!

Labstoo, Carmen, and siouxsie--CONGRADULATIONS, lets have them numbers keep climbing.

bubbles13--have you heard anything? Hope you get a BFP as well :D

Kittycat--welcome to the 2ww

As for me I am still cramping on and off, my breast are really sore and feel really heavy. After eating I get these really bad nausea feeling but I don't actually throw up. I can't wait till Friday, I am going crazy. Plus my landlord decided he was going to sell his house and the realtor want to come by and start showing the house. Like I can deal with more stress at this moment :evil:
