Brooklyngirl Tomorrow you will be PUPO, congrats.
Julie and HjwHow's the 2ww going?
Katie Thanks again for the post, I look on the jan/feb forums you are doing that one too, you are so awesome.
Afm: My betas came back 1311, my Re wants to do an u/s in 2 weeks. I am just so tired now and feeling nausea, but it could be do to the fact I ate 5 large fried pickles, boy what was I thinking?
NOV/DEC 2009 -- Cycle Group
Well at 1am things took a turn for the worst. I think I miscarried. I had to put a big pad on. I had pretty heavy AF cramps & lower back pains. Blood was flowing so heavy and there was a huge clot that I passed. I'm really not feeling pg anymore. I am beyond crushed. 
I came downstairs because I couldn't stop crying and I couldn't sleep.
I've been trying to call the RE and to go in this morning & just 'get this over with' instead of wondering for another day, but I keep getting the answering machine.
Merry Christmas to me.

Update
Well, I am not having my ET today. As I was walking to the subway, I got a call from the doctor. She said that the embryos were growing slowly (one with 4 cells and the other with 5) and that one was fragmenting. It looks like Saturday for the ET if either of them make it. I am not feeling all that hopeful.

Lorrie I am so sorry to hear u r bleeding like that. Sometimes I really wonder how we all have survived this long with this HORRIBLE IVF world we live in. I am praying that there is a way for your baby to still be growing and healthy.
Brooklyngirl sorry to hear about your news as well. They say that the strongest ones make it to day 5 so I am praying yours will be beautiful for you on that day!
AFM I guess I might as well drag the board down with some more bad news. Nothing I didn't already know. My beta was today! Apparently the lab ran a yes or no test instead of actual beta that my RE ordered but they let me wait for the results and it was a BFN. I just feel so terrible for my self and for everyone on this board. I feel as if I have gotten to know u all and all this bad news just breaks my heart for us all not just myself. This was our last try so today has changed how I veiw the rest of my life and it feels very lonely. God I hope it can somehow get better. I just can't understand how this hurt is ever gonna stop! Anyways thanks to all of you who have been there for me all this time and I plan to do my best to stay here until everyone is done. I don't want to leave anyone as you have all been there for me. Thanks again and best wishes to you all.

Hi All,
Skylar --- Wow... 5 large fried pickles?!?!?! Yup, you're pregnant all right...lol. Hope the nausea is better
LorrieS -- I'm so sorry that this is happening to you. My fingers are crossed tightly that there's a small chance things will be ok. Let us know how you're doing.
Brooklyngirl -- You're in my thoughts for a successful ET on Saturday. Fingers crossed for embies to grow! By the way... I've heard the females are "slow growers" and that's why there's a higher percentage of baby boys with IVF. So... maybe?
AFM -- Had U/S and B/W on Mon 12/21. Was bummed b/c of a 17 mm cyst despite lupron. RE said we'd have to wait for the PG level to come back that if the cyst wasn't producing hormone, then I wouldn't be cancelled. The good news was my lining was at 14 mm. Well, they called and said my PG was < 1.0! So I'm not cancelled yet. He did schedule me for an exra blood draw to recheck on Mon 12/28. I'm still on for FET 1/6/10 for now.
Good luck to all.

Brooklyngirl: Just wanted to let you know that after my ER, I had one embryo that was a slow-grower, and they told me not to expect much out of that one and we transferred the other two embryos. BFN for both of them. However, a few days after my transfer I got a call that the 3rd was actually doing really well, had caught up nicely, and was frozen. That was "Hope" the sole little emby that survived the thaw and is now snuggled in *hopefully* and my beta is Saturday. Never give up on the slow ones!
Kelly: My heart breaks for you. It is obviously not for us to understand why these things happen. I only hope that you can find peace and decide which path you will take from here. Keep us posted and lean on us for support. We're all here for you!
Lorrie: I truly hope this is still just the effects of your placenta previa. Didn't the same thing happen at school a few days ago and it turned out to be OK? Keep us posted; I'm praying for you this morning!
AFM: My beta is Saturday, but the nurse told me I could test tomorrow and likely get accurate results. According to my last cycle, today is the day I would start spotting if AF is coming. Group prayer for NO AUNT FLOW! Please pray for me. I want my Christmas miracle!

Afternoon everyone. I can't believe how much heartbreaking news there is on this board at the moment at what should be such a joyous time of the year. I'm thinking of you all.
justwannabamom - ((((((((((hugs)))))))))), I was so hoping that you were going to get a surprise BFP today. Does the fact that they did a 'yes/no' test mean that it wasn't a proper beta, or does it not make a difference?
Brooklyngirl - I know you must feel pretty disappointed right now, having got ready for ET today. Like lou71, I've heard the stats about girl embryos growing slower, so I'm hoping it's nothing to be worried about and it's just that you've got two little girls who are taking it at their own pace to get ready for ET on Saturday.
LorrieS - I'm so sorry... Have you been able to get hold of your RE and get checked out? I'm praying that it's going to be OK.
lou71 - try and keep strong. I had a cyst this cycle which measured 20x30mm at my day 7 stims scan, and they let me continue on with my cycle. On the positive news, 14mm lining is awesome!
Skylar - I'm so happy for your high beta, that's amazing!
BRMommy2B - I'm keeping everything I have crossed that Hope is doing well. Sending you tons of anti-AF vibes over the pond! So weird to read about your dizziness - I felt a bit lightheaded 2 or 3 times on the afternoon and evening after my ET and a couple of times since then. I mentioned it to my acupuncture lady when I saw her after ET, and she said it was blood concentrating in the uterus and that's why I felt a bit lightheaded. I'm trying to believe it can only be a good sign for both of us. Are you going to POAS or be strong and wait for your beta on Saturday?

Well, I was MIA yesterday and I'm sorry to see that it was a sad day around here. I've got all of you in my prayers and am holding out hope that today brings more uplifting news for us all.
BRMommy2b -crampy & light nausea are good signs! Sending out NO AF vibes to you! And of course I'm still crossed for "Hope"
Skylar -Wow 1311 - what a beta! So its true then about being pg and wanting pickles? What? no ice cream? So happy for you!
Lorrie -I dont know what to say - I just pray that it isnt what you think, you need that u/s! Hopefully you can go in for it today instead of tomorrow - prayers and PMA to you - xoxo
Brooklyngirl -I'm sorry that you were delayed but 4-5 cell can
still catch up - wishing you dividing thoughts for your embies
Kelly -Oh, honey -I'm so upset for you! My heart was breaking when I read your post. Is your DH really set on not trying again? You're both so young to just give up. There are programs out there where RE's donate their services, though it may take a while to get approved. Its worth reseaching. There are also programs to cover the costs of meds - I know that theres one called the Compassionate Care program. My thoughts and prayers are with you, whichever way that you decide to go.
Hazel -I hope that all is well with you & DH and the puppies. This is a good time of year to be distracted by all of the festivities and not to stress you 2ww - xoxo
hugs and prayers to all of us - xoxo

Katie and HJW: I do plan on POAS tomorrow. My beta would have been on Christmas, but it's the day after because they have no procedures that day and are closed. With family all day on Christmas and I'm in a wedding on Saturday, I don't want to be a mess, so the nurse told me I should be able to get an accurate result tomorrow morning. I'll let you know how it goes!

BRMommy -- Oooooh.... I am sending you BFP vibes for your POAS tomorrow. If I remember correctly, you received a BFN from transferring two embies me real close to my BFN date (11/10), AND, like me, you had one frozen to transfer. I do hope this is it. I'm going through the same thing, but mine is scheduled for 1/6/10. Keep us posted!!!
Lou--- 1 beautiful baby girl from a single 8 cell embie in Sept 2011
LorrieS I am so sorry, I know how it feels to bleed a lot and start to worry, I remember losing a baby while watching a Julia Roberts movie (At the movie theater). I am hoping it was a twin (which is sad to say). Let's us know what the RE said. I know there are no right words to say but I hope everything works out for you.
Kelly I am sorry about the BFN, I hope you do try again.
Brooklyngirl I know how you feel to wait for ET, I had to wait two extra days. I was actually at the doctors office and they said "Sorry not today". Most of the time it works out for the best to wait, gL
Lou71 I hope everything works for you.I wish you will have FET in Jan. as planned.
BRMommy2B GL on POAS.
I am truly sorry for all the BFN, we all been through so much, We cried so much even before getting to the IVF stage, IVF is the hardest thing your body has to go through emotionally and Physically. I hope life gives you want you want. (Sorry to sound cheesy, but that's the only way I can say it)
AFM:Note to self no more pickles, I vomited most of the night last night. I am about to run into the bathroom now. I also have a lot of poo going on (Sorry TMI).
