fitz - I had cramps fairly quickly - similar to like a bubbly, popping feeling and just a very HEAVY feeling.

Michele can you update my status. I had my ER this morning and they got 16 eggs. For my last cycle, I had a 5 day transfer so I hope to do the same thing this go around. If so, my ET will be Saturday.

I read this board every single day and it is still hard to catch up with everyone.

I wish everyone the best of luck. Keep those BFP's coming. For those in the 2ww, I'll be joining you soon.

My first beta check will be 2 weeks after my ET. I see that some of you have it 2 weeks after your ER. I guess that means I can POAS sooner

Hi Michelle:
Can you move me to ER - Wed. 8/19..Please and thank you!

I am both really nervous and excited. My RE is not even going to be there to do the ER, but he will be there for the ET After my results from BW & US today they are HOPING they can get 5 I keep trying to remind myself it only takes ONE! The plan was to transfer 3, which made me a bit nervous. But I am really nervous there will not even be ONE really good one. Let us bow our heads and PRAY!!!

Hey ladies,

Cressicaw: That is great you have 2 grade A embies. They didnt tell me what grade mine were. Wishing you sticky dust.

Lisa: GL on your 2ww. Keep busy, you will do great.

Deftones: Im really sorry for your loses, but your dad was right, dont stop trying. He will send you an angel.

Sportsmom: That is great. Im really happy for you. I didnt know they sold HPT in the dollar store either. lol

Dogz: Wow I cant believe you were allergic to the PIO. Thats crazy. Just do whatever the dr says and stay healthy for the baby. Have a safe 8mths.

Mlorfei: I pray that faint line is a positive. That is a good sign, plus the heartburn

GI: We are right in this together. My PIO are going surprisingly well. DOing the survive the thaw dance for you. You will do great.

Amandamae: Your beta #'s are awesome. GL on the 28th.

Butterfly: Thx, you give me hope, your beta # sounds like multiples.

Tryn4#2: thats a great amount of eggs. Fertilizing dust to you.

Penny2: GL with ER. I had to go to the RE every day also before my ER. Grow follies Grow.

Iamhopeful: Keep the faith. It only takes 1 good embie. I pray you will do fineand you will get enough eggs.

AFM: Its time ladies, I got the call today and I have a day 3 transfer TOMORROW.... I'm super excited. Its my 2nd day on PIO and the shots arent as bad as I thought. I ice it b4, then DH gives me the shot and I dont feel a thing until the ice wears off. I can hardly sit but my main concern was the pain from the shots so i can deal with not sitting lol. I have 6 embies that are growing very well and 2 will be transferred tomorrow. I pray my babies stick to mama. Any advice for the ER and 2ww please give them to me. So how does this beta thing work? Does my beta get checked during my 2ww or after my 2ww? Im confused.

Thx for all the support ladies. Sending my love, sticky and fertilization and BFP's to all. Talk to you soon

[ladybug09]

CT_Michele: can you please change me on your list im not sure where I fit in on there. ET is 8/18/09, but I guess tomorrow starts my 2ww. You can squeeze me in wherever. You are great at this. thx

Hi everyone -

wow, so much is going on here. I'm surprised that the site is still acting weird. I wonder if the administrator even knows about it? Well, I got my next ivf schedule today, antagonist cycle this time. I hope it works out better this try (I was on antagonist in june when cancelled) So we will see what happens. ER/ET is set for Sept w/o 28th (almost Oct!) But I will still check in with you guys!

dogz - thank god that they caught that early! You've had an eventful cycle - heres to a uneventful pregnancy!

gi - Soo excited for you on Thur!!!!

penny - Grow those follies!!

iamhopeful - Sending you prayers for your follies! And wishing you luck!

butterfly - I'm so happy for you!!

ladybug - Good luck with ET tom. they will send you home with your beta date.

hugs & PMA to you all!!! xoxo

[mlorfei]

Hey ladybug09,

I did acupuncture the morning after my 3dt and have done it a second time since then. It's really helped me a lot. For the most part, I'm much more relaxed than I thought I'd be. Totally recommend.

[cressicaw@hotmail.com]

Iamhopeful - my RE wasnt there for my ET either, I was pretty upset but I guess they cant work 24-7 but I would have liked to know that upfront. Like you, he did the ET which was better because I was awake for that one. Good luck.

ladybug - my ET went very well, I had very mild cramping and was very relaxed because they gave me a valium and played Sade, so I felt very comfortable. Only thing, one of my embies stuck behind and they had to do it twice but it went so quick.

You all are in my prayers....

[dogzrule]

ladybug - Most clinics check your beta 14 days after your ER, although some do it 14 days after ET. They will tell you when you go in for it though. They will then do a 2nd beta two days later if your 1st one is positive (which it WILL be!!!). Depending on the numbers, they may do more betas after that, like they did with me. I am so glad to hear your shot wasn't too bad YAY!!! As for the ET, I didn't feel a thing during the procedure. In fact, the only discomfort I had was when my doctor was cleaning my cervix prior to the ET. I'm SO excited for you!!!

Iamhopeful - YES it only takes one!!! We only had two transferred, and it did the trick. I know how nerve wracking this is, but hang in there, and KEEP PRAYING!

tryn - 16 eggs YAY for you!!!! And yes, I would definitely say you can POAS sooner lol.

amanda - what an outstanding new beta number!!! Can't wait to hear how many are in there.

AFM - Endometrin is getting delivered tomorrow to take over the suppository work. Enjoying my second day of breathing and no fever. Next sono is a week from Thursday. Can't we just have them everyday so we can KNOW everyday that it's all okay in there? I cannot WAIT to go back to work Wednesday. If I wasn't taking my car to get serviced tomorrow, I would go tomorrow. Let school begin, I say!!!

Hello everyone. I havn't posted in awhile, but i read the boards every single day.
I wnted to say congrats to all those new BFP's!
Keep up the patience for those of you in the 2ww!!! It will be over before you know it.

I go for my ultrasound tomorrow afternoon. I'm nervous because i keep having dreams that something is not quite right. I know that is just me being paranoid. I'll let you all know how it goes.

[cheekyone]

Hi-
I don't post often, but I keep up to date on everyone's status. Congrats to all the BFP's!! I will hopefully be going into the ER next week for IVF #2. Anyone have advice/positive experience with assisted hatching? I requested AH for this cycle. I have experienced 2 chemical pregnancies with IUI & first IVF fresh cycle. Hoping that AH helps this time around. Thanks.

[Faith9455]

Thanks to everyone who have been doing the grow follies dance for me. This will be day 12 on stims and FINALLY and end is in site. With my lead follies in the 16-17 range, they estimate retrieval either Sat or Sun. DH went with today for my BW/US appt, which was nice as he hasn't been with me there in a while. I have 15 follies currently in the 11-16 range, with 5 of them being 16 or 16.5. So I guess more menopur and more time has done the job. I still have to order one more night's worth..but that should be it.

Have a good day today and I'll try to do personals later!


Faith

[Liana]

Hello,

I've been out of town for a week. It took me a whole day to read everyone's news! Sorry I can't do too many personals right now, just know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

starwishes, I am sorry about your news. My heart is with you.

dogzrule, I was so happy to read your story, congrats!

katie, fingers crossed for this cycle!

lw, I have my 6-week ultrasound on Thursday and I too am very nervous. The worrying never stops! As DH says, it doesn't stop till they are out of the house and even then it doesn't stop. Lots of good wishes to you for your u/s tomorrow!

Congrats to the BFPs!
