gigi - the waiting can be so hard - I've been waiting since early January and I won't cycle until the end of July/Aug. Of course I'm feeling better now because it is right around the corner. For me, I just had to focus on other things and stay of the boards - it was just to frustrating for me. But, it did go pretty fast, so hang in there!

Carolyn - thinking of you today!

Congrats on pupo status!! Relax like Summer says.
Summer, Pooh, Chriss, Kelly, (Gigi&JenB-Long time no hear ladies),
How are you all? Awaiting the weekend anxiously?
I have got news: Egg retrieval for donor is Friday as in tomorrow. Clinic will call me w/the results. I have been waiting for this day to come. Wow, I can't believe it's here. PLEASE keep the donor & myself in your thoughts & prayers. Thanks for all your advice & support these past months. It's really made a difference in my demeanor. I promise to keep you posted. Wishing everyone lots & lots of babydust!!!

What a fantastic week - Carolyn is PUPO with two fantastic embies and Sabi is almost there with ER tomorrow! Yippee!!!

Poohgirl you aren't far behind!!

Chris and Summer, I hope you are taking it easy and enjoying each day! The time flies by so enjoy it while it lasts. Chris, are you over the shock of twins yet? I have to tell you how much fun they are!!!!

Gigi, your remaining 3.5 months will fly by, especially since it is now the summer.

JDC, July/August is just around the corner. My goodness, this is going to be a busy thread.

As for me, I am going to have to hope for a miracle because DH doesn't want to do IVF again. I suppose I can understand but its hard.

Can't wait to follow this thread over the next few weeks!!! What an exciting time!

Hi everyone,
Have had lots of evening activities so I have not been able to log on.

Carolyn, thinking of you. Take good care of yourself sweets. We are all praying for you.

Sabi, wow!!! How exciting!!!! Thinking of you too!!!!! Can't wait to hear all about it.

hi Pooh, Jenbabes, JDC & Gigi!

Summer, is mom back home now? How are you feeling?

Kelly, sorry to hear of DH's thoughts. Maybe, just maybe he will change his mind???? How long do you have to decide??? You asked if I'm still in shock, well, yes I am in shock about it all. I've been eating like a pig. Were you ravenous? Did you gain much weight the first trimester?

AFM... had another ultrasound yesterday. Both still there and both with good heartbeats. CRAZY. One measured 3 days smaller than the other, so we are feeling a little nervous. RE takes the wait and see approach. We will see him at the end of next week to see what's going on. He said it is a bit smaller, the heartbeat is a good sign. But I guess you just never know. I am happy to be pregnant. Still don't believe it. We had a miscarriage a while back at 8 weeks, so I guess we just want to get over that hump.

Thinking of you all. This is a special group of ladies, we are strong and we have each other!!! Keep believing:)
