Hi Ladies!

I just got home from my ET. Two were transfered and 6 put on ice. They have 7 more they are going to watch until tomorrow and then possibly freeze. I had acupuncture both before and after, which was sooo wonderful and relaxing!

I had to laugh while they were doing the Transfer... there were 6 women in the room with us, not including myself and my DH. I told him it was quite a story to tell our future child that they were conceived by their daddy and 7 women! I guess it really does take a village :)

I feel like I should go hang upside down now but instead I will just continue to lay and catch up on Tivo.

Michelle- can you move me down to the wait list please. My test date is 8/21, which is only 7 days away and not two weeks... weird but I'll take it! Anyone else have their tests soo soon?

Praying for stickyness!!

Dillysgirl: Wow that is soon at 7 days past transfer. I thought mine was soon at 11 days past transfer. I would ask your doctor about this because it seems odd. I too had the acupuncturist accompany us to the transfer and had her treat me before and after and I'm so glad I did. I was much calmer and at ease with everything compared to the last 2 times. Get some good rest! How did you decide to put 2 in?

Dogzrule: Awesome news Mama! You will be fine. Enjoy your day and bask in your baby's heartbeat :D

CT Michele: How are you doing? Would you update me to a BFP? Thanks.

Sorry I know i need to catch up reading all the posts. Just think if we were all talking in the same room together...I don't think you'd ever get us out of the room!

AFM: I'm still nervous about BETA #3 tomorrow because it didn't double. I'll keep you posted. Please God!

Good luck to all new PUPOs.
So I have another 7 days left until my blood test on the 21st, and so far haven't noticed any pregnancy symptoms. Like cressicaw I've also been looking out for implantation bleed signs, breast pain or anything else.
The only thing that I do still have is mild cramping if I do anything strenuouslike stand for more than half a minute. I also behaved very bipolar today, with having 2 major weeping feasts over nothing, to laughing my headoff. (I think that the 2WW is making me go crazy)
Have a good weekend everyone.

Dillysgirl - I had mine 9 days past 5 day transfer, so only two more days than you. I laughed when you talked about hanging upside down. I could TOTALLY picture that! :lol:

Tortilla- Decision for two was easy for us . We are first time ivf and I am supposedly young and healthy so two seemed like not too many and we felt more at ease than just having one. The RE recomended two as well. So two it is! Oh, about the posting twice, i have done it too and you cant delete your post. I find I just have to hit submit and wait a few and it will go instead of hitting the button again, which is what I want to do :)

I have been talking to me embies all day, letting them know it's safe to burrow away in there!

Dillysgirl - Throwing TONS of sticky dust to you!!! We also had 2 5-day blasts transferred. Most clinics test 14 days after your retrieval, but yours is only two days ahead of that, so I'm sure it will be just fine! :D

tunie - The 2ww is just awful lol. Remember, some people feel NOTHING and get a BFP!

tortilla - I cannot WAIT to hear your number tomorrow. I prayed for you and know that the number will be just perfect!

geckogirl - YAY for transfer!!! Glad to hear your DH is taking care of things for you as you enter the dreaded 2ww. :lol:

deftonesmo - So glad you are back!!!

cressica - TONS of sticky dust to you!!! Monday will be here before you know it!

Dogzrule: Thanks for the prayers girl! I go in this morning before 10 (it's around 7:45am now) and get my results by 6:00pm tonight (Pacific Standard Time). The worrying is neverending! I feel like I'm in the Olympics running track and hurdles are put up every 5 feet or so. I keep jumping them!!! Let's hope I jump this one :wink:

Dillysgirl: I LOVE that you talk to the embies! My hubby likes to sing to ours :D

Tunie: The cramping is a good sign! Lots of women don't have any symptoms this early though. 6 days and counting. I'm thinking of you.

Love to the rest of you! I will update when I get the results of my third BETA tonight.

Tortilla- I keep checking back here for your beta results and then I realize that we are in the same time zone, hehe

AFM- My embryologist just called and said 3 more of our embies made it to blast so she froze them, which totals 9 snowbabies for us!

baby dust all around!!

Hey Ladies,
Just wanted to give a quick post. I had my ER today and cramping really bad. Thank God we reach home on time because the door flew open and I started throwing up (TMI) sorry. But besides that everything went well and they were very happy becasue we got more eggs than expected 19 mature ones. So I get 9 and the lady im donating my eggs to gets 10. I pray we both get our miracle babies. The dr will call me tomorrow to let me know how my little babies are fertilizing. Fertilize Babies. They will let me know when's my transfer is and we will be transferring 2 embies. They said my E2 was a little high so just to look out for signs of OHSS I think its called. so Im keeping a track of my input and output and weighing myself. Anyways ladies I hope everyone is doing ok, im feeling like cramp and going to rest. Dont have an appetite and feeling BLAH :( will catch up and keep you updated on my embies tomorrow. Wishing all of you well
