Carolyn,

Did time fly or what? I can't believe the et is on Weds. I'm really excited for you. Please keep us updated, PLEASE!! I'm praying for you & will have both fingers & toes crossed. You sound calm & positive. Relax. Will you be doing any sights in Prague-how fabulous. I'm coming around the corner. the doc ordered the last of the meds for the donor so I think she's going to be ready soon. I learn how to shoot Progesterone on Tues & u/s to check lining on Thursday. Two weeks or so away is my guess. Her eggs were able to impregnate another woman w/twins so I feel real confident.

Summer,

How is the visit going? Everything checking out ok at the doc's? Are you getting that Hollywood "bump?" Thanks for all the advice & support babe!
Been gardening & planting like crazy these past weeks.

Good morning ladies!! Hoping to write some serious posts in the next couple of days. School is finally out. Now, I only have to teach a couple of hours every morning. Sorry I've been so lax. Been reading & praying for everyone. Keep the faith!

Hi everyone,
Hope you are all enjoying a nice weekend. The weather is beautiful here, I hope it is where you are too.

Carolyn, time sure does fly. I'm thinking of you. You sound great. You've definitely got your PMA. We are all rooting for you.

Sabi, wow, school is over for you already? That seems early. I still have three more weeks. It is nice that you will have the time to relax a bit more. Get yourself all calm and ready:)

Hi everyone else. Hope all is well.

AFM... had an early scan on Friday... 2 heartbeats. We are still in shock. I am so grateful. Been having some bleeding, a little nervous about it. Seems as tho some women bleed during their pregnancies. Just trying to keep my cool. Go back next week for another scan.

XOXO

Chris, OMG - twins... how exciting!!! I am sure you are in shock - can't wait to hear more about your little ones! That is such exciting news...

Carolyn, I can't believe your FET is here! Here's to hoping that the next 2.5 weeks fly by for you!! Keep up that PMA and if you find it starting to falter then log on here and your cheering section will help you through...

Sabi, Poohgirl, you guys are going to be PUPO soon too! What an exciting month this is going to be!

Summer, glad that all is well with your pregnancy. I found that the desire to find out was hardest at around 20-24 weeks because they ask you a lot at that point. Once you say that you don't want to find out, they stop asking so it doesn't seem as hard to resist!

JDC & gigi - how are you girls doing?

AFM, well I haven't got up to the nerve to talk to DH about my desire for more again. I think your suggestions about freezing is a great idea but I am not sure whether he'll go for it. We'll see. I will try to address it this week! Thanks for your support with this.

Have a great week!!

Hi girls,
Just popping in to wish everyone lots of PMA and baby dust this week!!

Carolyn, I will be thinking of you this week! After your transfer, just take it easy and give those embies some time to settle in!! This is your time!

chriss - best of luck with your scan this coming week!! thinking of you. Two heartbeats! Very exciting!!

sabi - good luck with your shot lessons this week! You are really so close, it won't be long now till your transfer!

kelly, I'm sure you will pick the right time to talk to DH. How long is this window open for using the same donor? thinking of you and have my fingers crossed that you get DH at the right time.

To gigi, JDC, jenB, and anyone I may have missed, hope you all are well!

Will do my best to write again soon. Been busy with my mom here. We are really enjoying having her here.

Thinking of all of you,
xx summer

poohgirl - thinking of you on Wednesday! Good luck with your lining scan! The bloating is a side effect, but who needs it?? I can only encourage you to drink, drink, drink...I saw one lady at the doctor's office last week, she was so bloated and retaining water she could hardly walk or move her fingers! I felt so sorry for her and really hoped that wouldn't be my fate in a few months as well!!

sabi - when do you go for your lining scan? Must be soon as well!

carolyn - will keep your embies in my thoughts on Wednesday! I am sure all will be fine!!
When do you fly and have transfer? I think I remember that you will be flying back on Sunday?? Got my fingers crossed for you! Have a safe trip and next time you cross the little pond, you will be PUPO!

chriss - Best of luck with your upcoming scan! Still am so excited about the two heartbeats! Just wonderful news. I am sure you are really beaming when you think about them, which is probably almost all the time!

Have a great week, egg-heads! It is a very exciting time on our thread these days!!

Big hello to anyone I have missed,

Summer- How are you? Is mom gone? How's that bump? Glad to see your posts. Miss you when you're not around.
Carolyn- This is a big week for you hon!! PMA!!!! Got everything crossed.
Chriss- I have to tell you that your e-mail I read yesterday brought tears to my eyes. I'm so happy for you!!

lining ultrasound is this Thurs 6:45am. final meds were ordered & delivered to donor. I am coming around the bend girls....
Thanks for all the words of wisdom & cheers!! Have a great day!!

Hi everyone:

So excited for you Carolyn. I can't wait to be where you are. This 6 month wait (only at 2.5) is really a challenge. Had to idea it would be this hard. I am a planner and just want to move forward asap. But this is not in my control.

Twins would be an amazing miracle. What a blessing.

Hang in there ladies...

Poohgirl - wonderful news! You are on your way!! Best of luck for the rest of your cycle!

Carolyn - all the best for your embies tomorrow! Wishing you all the best in Prague and for the 2ww!

Sabi - good luck for your scan on Thursday!

gigi - I also had to wait at one point, about 6 months between tmts and was so happy to be able to come onto this forum and talk about whatever was on my mind. We are here for you and your time will come...

Sending PMA and baby dust to everyone here,
