Hey ladies. So my PMA is working. My transfer is scheduled for Sunday now. wooo whoo! Gives my body a couple more days to heal...which I really need! Now I'm focusing my PMA on how many embies I want to end up with...I say 10...10 normal embies...transfer 2 and freeze 8! How does that sound? hehehehe. I'm sending everyone positive energy! xo Karen :D

J C~ I think it was a bad test. I would not get discouraged yet! I have used dollar store tests....they do work but I never had those results....so I assume its a bad test.

Karen~ great new on transfer! Good luck Sunday!

Katie~best rest.....will be so worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just have a good feeling about this for you! I know I keep saying that but I do!

Merri~ Good luck at transfer. Sticky dust to ya!

Mandy and Rosuanda~ I am so hoping for some good news. We need more BFP's!!!!!

AFM, not much going on....today is the first day after ER that I am not in a lot of pain. I am thankful for that. The OHSS has been brutal and mine was only mild-mod. I can only imagine what its like to have severe. While I am thankful its gone, I cannot help but read into that if I was preggars it would usually get worse before better....but I know that is silly...but still....ya know what our fertility drug pickled minds are capable of thinking up! BUT I am back at work and feeling somewhat productive. I am looking forward to the baby shower this weekend and looking forward to getting the next week over and done with so I can get beta and move on...in one direction or another.

Marci - We'll miss you around here - but totally get how if you're in March, feeling the need to be on a new thread. Wow there will be so many of my girls over there, I'll be lurking, following and crashing all the time! Visiting is good, right? best of luck to you & DP! - xoxo

Claudia -I'll stay crossed for you to get the green light on monday!
But, oh, my tripled estrogen? EEk! hope your DH is extra sensitive to all that estrogen. You get a whole week off for President's Day? Yiippeee for that!

Hope -Hooray for getting going with stims. ugh for spraying your desk w/ gonal f - its so much fun to lose some of that liquid gold, like you can almost put a $amount on how much was wiped up, right? :wink:
Ummm please be careful if you have to drive - I'm in NY and I've seen warnings about YOUR snowstorm - yikes! Hopefully you can just settle in w/ome ggod movies and watch it from your window!

Roshaunda -Why do they take so long to call on beta day? Dont they realize how long the 2ww really is? UGH- hurry up and ring!
I just cant wait to hear your good news! :D

Es -Arent men funny? a little procedure and they act like it was major surgery -If they could just spend 1 day as a woman during a cycle, right? They'd have a real hard time getting through it - we are such troopers!

J&C - Pink w/ a white line? sounds like it was defective, or just too old. Think you should just hang on til tomorrow- I know, I know.

Dodo -Crossed for you to get the green light for estrace tom!
Hope tomorrows apt goes all smooth!

Samantha -Has it sunk in yet? You & DH must be walking on air!
So happy for you two! :D

Merri -Good luck with your ET today! Hit the couch for the weekend and never mind that blizzard! YAY you'll be PUPO!! :D

Karen -I like your math! Keep up the PMA and good luck on Sunday! Will they tell you where you were in that study after betas?
or not at all?

AFM -I'm feeling a few twinges, a few crampy moments here and there, but mostly just trying really hard to not get caught up in every little feeling. I 'm grateful to not have such a long wait for my beta - so 1 day down, 7 more to go! lots of love to you all - -xoxo

Franny -ugh - Miss you already! I know you'll just bounce back & forth on both threads - tee heee I'll have to follow you all over the place

Hi Ladies- I just got the call from my RE, I'm pregnant :D :D :D :D :D

I can't stop crying!! My 6th anniversary is tomorrow and I couldn't of asked for a better gift, from GOD! Now I just have to wait until my DH calls me back so I can tell him, he is going to cry, I know it!! My RE said we tested a few days early, it was 12dp3dt and my numbers are already 365!!!

Ladies, thank you for all your prayers. I would'nt of been able to handle this whole process without your girls!!

Now I'm about to go open my bottle of sparkling apple cider!!


Mandy- I'm praying for you also!

J&C- I think it is a bad test, my prayers are with you for tomorrow as well.

Katie- you are the best, your the one that brought me over to this board when I just was trying to find my way. I love you to death and I can't wait when you post your BFP. The "little beans" are snuggling right on in.

Karen- you are almost PUPO!! I know you can't wait for sunday

Merri- you should be PUPO now or soon! Good luck with your transfer

Everyone is in my prayers :D :D

katie i'm not going anywhere. you know i'll still be here posting. i'm always the last one to leave the party! please try not to stress about every feeling. trust me its horrible. i am going to try to stay as calm as i can next time. now i know how the 2ww feels, and i will be better prepared for it. now like you told me....back to the couch missy!! love you and the beans soooo much!! :D

j&c i think that means that you are SO pregnant that you broke the damn test!! haha it had HCG overload and made all the colors switch!! might as well wait until tomorrow at this point...do not give those evil HPT company's any more money!!! they thrive off of all of us TTC womans hormones, dreams and emotions!!
