Morning girls,

Thanks for all your support and info, i continue to poas and its very dark today though i wont relax till after scan esp after last time. Cramping on/off sometimes it freaks me out as feels if AF is arriving but i am hoping its just progesterone and body realising its pregant.

Fkm1178 i was told to relax in couch for 4 days after transfer though some clinics think one day is enough.

tryn4#2 good luck with poas i pray you get your bfp xxx

Don't have but a minute since I'm heading for my scan


Ladybug: BIG CONGRATS TO YOU!!!!!

GI: Just wanted to let you know, I am 7 wks 4 days and I STILL get those cramps. I keep thinking I'm getting ready to just start bleeding :( I was told that it's totally normal and a result of the PIO on top of the progesterone from the pregnancy.

Ladybug: I knew it! Congrats to you! Very cool indeed! YIPEE!

tryn4#2: Did you POAS today? I also have my beta on 9/3 but I think you are a few days ahead of me...so I would think the results would be good right. On 9/3 (when I do my Beta) I will be only 12dp3dt...what will you be on 9/3?

fkm: I was on bedrest for 48 hours following my ET . . . I got up to use the bathroom, but that's it . . . I think the bedrest is not necessarily for the embryos, but a chance for your body to rest~especially since your ovaries that have been working overtime! Also, I was advised not to shower during that time, or if I wanted to, take a really quick one . . . :lol:

ladybug - Congrats! Great BFP number! Hope tomorrow goes just as well!

gi - sounds like some great results! When do you go in for your scan? I can't imagine having to wait that long to know for sure...

To all in the 2ww - lots of PMA and sticky dust!

I am starting to get terrified. Got my call from the nurse...transfer is scheduled for 10:30am tomorrow! Very excited, but nervous too that my embies thaw okay. I have 3 blasts and I really hope to be able to transfer them all. And then having to relax for the next 2 weeks - I'm really bad at it! I'm hoping it'll be a little easier with a three day weekend off of work...

Hi Girls,

There are exciting this going on here!

Lisa - I had cysts during both of my cycles. I have endo so it seems I always have them. They monitored the size of the cysts and my hormone levels. I'm assuming they were fine or they wouldn't have let me move forward.

Ladybug - I am soo happy for you. I hope everything continues to go well. GL on your next beta!

Fitzjr - GL on your ET on Wednesday.

Gi - I hope you continue to get those dark lines.

AFM, I trigger tonight and I go in for ER on Wednesday am. I actually have to get ready to go. I have to drive to my sister's house so she can give me the shot. My DH works til midnite and I have to take it at 11.

Good luck to all you ladies. PMA PMA PMA!!

Lisa - I do not have endo but always tend to have had a cyst when I went for u/s in the past (for Clomid and insemenation) my nurse told me that that the eggs if they are not fertilized turn into cysts (that is normal) but what they monitor is if it fills up with water, blood or puss (I guess they can tell this from the u/s).

Ladybug - I am so happy for you! Isn't it so unbelievable? I am still trying to wrap my head around it. I cant wait to hear more.

Nicole - good luck, the ET is a breeze and I felt great! Are you hoping for triplets?

deftonemo - enjoy the rest and take good care of yourself... I will be praying for another BFP! This has really been a lucky site!

fitz - wow, a 5-day transfer... that is great. Best of luck.

dogz - When is your due date?

AFM - I had my 3rd Beta... so the numbers went from 438 to 2076 and now it is over 8000... Wahooo!!!! My very first U/S is next Tuesday and I am going to get to see the baby (babies). I have had very little symptoms, no spotting at all... not even a tinge, no sickness, I can smell things more acutely, I am tired and hungry and last night I had some night sweats (which they said is due to all the hormones in my body and is normal during the 1st trimester, something to do with the hypotahlmus (spell?) and some soreness in my breasts but other then that I feel awesome and to get be PREGNANT is such a miracle!!!

Yay! Transfer went great! All three embryos made it - two 4AA and one 6AA (which they seemed really impressed with!). I'm not quite sure what it all means, but as long as they were really happy, I'll take it. I'm hoping this is it! So...my beta test is scheduled for 9/11.

Gonna go relax now for the rest of the day. My mom is coming over to watch a girlie flick this afternoon, since my DH is stuck at work. Couch here I come!
