Well another NEGATIVE when I POAS this morning. DH and I are geared up to start again in May....Although I am sad....its nothing like my first two BFN.....since I can sit here and stare at my beautiful baby boy! He is so precious and I hope I can give him a sibling soon! Wishful-- I am 7dp5dt so I should have gotten a + by now, but who knows....my betas not until Tuesday.

Wow, there is so much going on here I have to keep posting our list to keep it fresh!

Latino, hope, dys, babyluv and josee - Good luck to you all for beta' today and tomorrow, I can't wait to hear all of the news!

neffi- You still have a lot of time before beta, so anything is possible. If my math is right, you are 12dpo, and as I have said a million times, with ella I didn't see a very faint line until the afternoon of 13dpo. But I am glad you and dh are planning just in case, and I kn ow exactly what you mean about being sad, but not as sad as the first time...even if it is bad news this time...you have little Jack to keep you strong.

cymplicity- let us know about your newest beta, I bet the numbers will be great, do you know when u/s is yet?

hazel- I am glad to here you are back from ER and you are a brave lady for being alert the whole time. I thought they used local with me, but it must have been more, because I don't remember it at all. 6 eggs is great! I am excited to hear your fert report tomorrow...now go get some rest!

carolyn- I should know more about the whole TESE/ER thing later today or most likely tomorrow. let us know if you poas...just one more week for your beta...I know you went to prague for transfer...do you go to a local clinic for a blood test on the 24th?

dys- I do think you can stop POAS now, but you are like me, even after I get a positive, I will keep going to get those darker lines! I can't wait to hear your numbers tomorrow! I am so excited...

sari- I forgot to ask...did you read the children's book to your belly yet? It was you who bought that childrens book like 2 months ago right? It is never too early to start reading to them...see, I knew that book would come in handy!

so I went to the clinic again this morning, and the u/s tech said to me, I have a suprise for you...and I got all excited for a second until I realized she was being sarcastic as she told me the dr wants to see me again tomorrow. I told her I was not suprised, and fully expected it at this point, I wouldn't be suprised if I had to go sunday either. Someone had asked how far my clinic is (sorry, I don't remember who), it is a 30 minute drive each way without traffic, and lately there has been construction traffic, so it takes me about 45 min.

Everything was good this morning thouhg...here are my numbers in mm
right- 20, 16, 13x3, 11, 10x2, plus a few smaller
left- 16x2, 15x3, 14x2, 10x3, plus a few smaller

It is still looking like tuesday for retrieval, but maybe wednesday if they want to let those small ones grow a bit more. She said they will call later with bw results, and I will know a bunch more tomorrow, when I will see RE himself and we will talk about retrieval plan. I think they will probably make contact with dh's doc for TESE, just to prepare them, it all needs to be coordinated. The 2 docs are about a 40 minute drive apart, so I will have to go with dh, and then we will need to drive the sample to the clinic, and the lab tech will need to be there to take the sample.

The only thing that was crummy this morning was they told me I can't swim tomorrow, or next week, or the week after. They said they don't want to risk me getting an infection, which I understand, but it stinks because I will either have to find someone to take Ella to swim lessons and she will probably cry the whole time, or we will have to skip them and they end soon. I am glad they were really cheap, since we are going to miss a bunch. I will probably sign her up for the summer ones too, I should be able to swim for most of that if I get my bfp this time!

Ok, I will check in for some beta reports later! Happy friday everyone!

Josee- don't apologize for being down- we have all been there! It's good you are patient! When you get that baby handed to you, it will make it seem all worth the while!

Then, once you get the BFP............ you have to wait to hear the heartbeat and agonize over all kinds of new stuff :lol:

Josee - I know how you feel(believe me, I really know). This is very stressful. But hang in there. When you feel down, don't hesistate, write it down, we will be here for you, to help you work up your PMA. Listen to Michelle, there are some late implanters.

Cimplicity - I lost track of the numbers, what was your first and second beta. How many are there? So exciting!!!

Hazel - 6 eggs is a very good number. Go on to sleep and prepare yourself for ET and the wonderful 2WW.

Michelle - Yesterday was such a emotional day, I was on the phone almost all day long, and visiting family. Nobody in our family believe us, they thought we were jocking and when we show them the labs results everybody cry. I am talking to the baby but not enough time to read to him or her (or both). But today I will get the books and tell the baby that was the first gift mommy bought.

Ian - How are you doing?

Neffi - Wait until Tuesday, I think is early. Don't loose faith.

Sarah - Thanks for your support. You are right, I am just happy, it doesn't matter if I get morning sickness or what ever. Sometimes was hard, 15 years of marriage with a wonderful man, waiting and waiting. Right now I don't know if cry or laugh. I can't get any work done, I just want to talk to my baby. There was a person who told me I have to watch my weight, to get a diet. I told her, I don't care, after the baby is born I do a very strict diet, but now I just want my baby to be healthy.

To everyone else, a big hug, happy sttiming and relax on your wait.

Sari~ I'm ok- not ok, but good enough..... I can always seem to find something to worry about!! Right now it's a nagging little pain in my lower right side that is probably just gas, but of course now I'm worried it's an ectopic!!!!! I have been blessed with the gift of worry! I'm trying hard to trust this little baby is a gift from God and that it won't be taken or stolen away from me. I'm thankful for the support on this board- how much, I cannot begin to explain. I think I'd lose my mind if it wasn't for this board!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you calculated your estimated due date??

Ian don't worry too much, it could be gas like you said. I am very gassy too (uugh). But for your tranquility, call your RE, maybe they schedule u/s.

Yes I calculated my due date, the funny thing is, it's going to be on the anniversary of when my DH and I began our relationship as boyfriend/girlfriend, December 21. It would be our 20 anniversary.
