Hi everyone!
Had my F/U today. Started BCP today while the FET is approved from INS. In 2 weeks I will stop the pill, get AF again (oh boy), then start estrogen pills and patches. FET will be appx 16 days from start of AF. My RE is very optimistic and says the 5 embryos are all great quality. We are going to transfer 3.
Lou - good luck on Wednesday with beta test! I could not hold off as long as you from POAS. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, since AF always comes 1 or 2 days before my test anyway.
Hi Lauren! Good news on getting started with FET so soon! I love your PMA!!!! Keep it going! You'll be preggers in no time with all those frosties!!
don't think it's gonna be twins for us, we only transferred the single... and our numbers are way lower than with my last pregnancy, which I had thought could be twins (betas were much higher!) but turned out to be my single DS! Those silly betas can be so deceiving!
Anyway, I'm so happy to hear you're jumping back in right away. Hope all goes well with insurance and no bumps in the road!!
hugs!!

I am so sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel like you had to move threads. I just didn't want you to get left on this thread and not getting encouragement and support (which I know you will get on the Winter cycle thread) when this thread ends (meaning people moving on to pg threads or new cycle threads, not meaning to kick you off). OMG I am so sorry I made you feel that way. Please forgive me.

great beta #'s, cannot wait to hear about your u/s!. Get some rest, sounds like you have been really busy. The other thread is Winter Cycle Friends, started by Katie.
Lauren,
Sounds like things are going to move pretty quickly for you!. I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you.
PositiveT,
I transferred 4 embies (one didn't look very good, so he transferred it anyway). Can't wait to hear your beta #'s!
lou,
how are you holding up??? I am hoping you end this thread with a big Ol' BFP!
kittycat,
not long until your beta, keeping my fingers crossed for you for another BFP.

Arabsrcool - I was having a bad day yesterday. A hell of a rollar coaster actually. Damn hormones must be a raging! I hoped you hadn't meant it that way, but I have to admit, that is pretty much how I felt yesterday. lol I joined the cycle thread because I wasn't sure if I belonged in a pg thread yet. It's still so early and I am scared of becomming one of those sad stories. I came back to see if there are any updates on anyone and saw your apology. I'm sorry if I took it too personally.
GI - Stalker LMAO! I didn't even know there were baby tickers until I came to the forums. I think they are all so cute! lol You need to be slapping one on there soon!
Lou - I have all my apendages crossed that can cross for you! Believe me... not very easy to type like this!
Lauren - Going through with a FET right away, awesome! I have a feeling about this one!! I have good intuition when my hormones aren't overpowing my every emotion. lol I am going to have to stalk the next cycle thread and see how it turns out for you! Unless there is a way to keep track otherwise? I am new to the use of forums all together, not sure if there is a friends list or something? I can't wait to see you saying you got a BFP! Your PMA is so awesome, reading your posts always seem to pick me up!

I am so glad you checked back in. I was going to PM you if you didn't pop back on this thread. I NEVER meant to sound like I was kicking you off or suggesting you go somewhere else for support or that I didn't want you on this thread. I just really meant for you to check out the other thread, Winter Cycle Friends, because alot of the girls that started on this thread are on there and are great!. Its because I am so glad you are preggers and thought you might like to chat with some other pregger girls. I am very happy to have you part of this thread, regardless of when you joined. I totally get why you started here now, and understand why you would want to stay on this thread (now that you have explained it to me, I didn't think of it that way until you did). Again, I am sorry, I never meant to hurt your feelings and feel awful that my post came across that way to you. It was never my intent. Glad to have you here. anywhoo....how goes the pg symptoms? my (.)(.) are getting sore, very bloated, and nasty headaches. Of course all that can be the meds too! No sad story for you, me, gi, Positive T and a big BFP for Lou (oh and for kitty too) I am going to keep the PMA and its our time girls! We are all going to go on to have big ol fat healthy babies in November and December.
gi,
so when do you ad a ticker? I am not sure when I will, maybe after beta.

Stephanie - Thanks! I wish I were joining the pg thread instead of March/April, but what can I do? This FET sounds like a piece of cake compared to a fresh cycle, so I hope this is the one. I figure that it should work seeing as I have been saying for a while that I don't want a Christmas baby. My step-daughter's bday is 12-23 as it is. Now I am thinking that I don't care when the birthday is as long as it finally works. I am pretty new to this too, so I don't know if you can add ppl as friends or anything. My computer is still broken, so I have to use my Ipod touch. It's a pain in the butt to even make bold words lol. And I hit the i instead of o alot, among other letters, so disregard my spelling lol!
Arabsrcool - It's all good. lol I just chalk it up to a hormone raging day, all my fault! I even say the same thing on the pg thread I joined before I even saw your apology. So have you gone and POAS again? I have a collection. lol I took 8, almost one for each day I had left until my blood test, which was 10. lol I couldn't get enough, hell... I am still in shock! My symptoms are sore boobs and being tired. DH read something yesterday to me that said during this time of the pregnancy, my body will work harder than he works doing PT. I was like... see, being a mom is exhausting! lol Oh... my joints seem to be achy too. My knees and pelvis are acting like they don't like me much.
Lauren - FET is going to be a lot easier. I don't know about you, but with my IVF cycles I was swollen for a long time! The follicles and then after ET was bad. I was up peeing more then than I am now being preggers. Less responsibility with more comfort, can't lose! You know, I went and got three smalls stones to help me. (A friends suggestion) Try it with your cycle for shts and giggles. lol Moonstone, rose quartz and onyx. They are said to help with fertility and keep the bad vibes away. I kept mine in my pocket every day and held them in my hand on my belly during transfer. After two failed cycles, I thought it couldn't hurt and it seems it didn't hurt at all.
So only three girls left waiting on beta's, am I right? Almost there girls!! Can't wait to hear your numbers!

Today sucked ass for me... I am so mad . I broke a tooth... and a molar no less. It hurts like hell too. Good thing my dentist had a cancellation and can see me tomorrow morning at 7AM. Bad thing I have to get up so freakin' early to be there! I really hope he can fix it without doing a crown.
Right now I'm sitting at home obsessing about what the outcome of my cycle could be. I had a little breakdown all my myself. I pulled out the box of my mom's things I have stashed in an extra room and sat on the floor and cried over them for a bit. I read old letters she sent me when I was away at school. She left me a six page letter to find after she passed and I re-read that as well. She wrote it 3 years before she died. I feel better now.
Made chili in the crock pot and it gave me tremendous heartburn. DH will be home from work soon. I'm sure he will like it. I'd go to bed but I put some corn bread in the oven for him. He loves that. So I'm just hanging on the couch watching Law and Order.
Cramps back this evening, but pretty slight. Almost unnoticeable. I haven't been eating the best and I'm blaming that for my bloated feeling. And this chili heartburn really stinks! Tums isn't even touching it. I really miss working out. My trainer keeps texting me...lol. And I've missed 3 weeks of my tennis league. Soooo not like me. God, I want this to work so bad but it's like I can't quite believe that I could be pregnant. It's almost Wednesday and we will all know soon enough. If negative again, I will cycle again in May.
Thanks to everyone for cheering me on here and hanging in on this thread til the very end. I do appreciate the support.
Kittycat -- I saw your beta is Thursday... a day after mine. I couldn't find if you said you POAS or not. Maybe YOU are the last on the thread to get a result then . Best of luck to you!
Lou--- 1 beautiful baby girl from a single 8 cell embie in Sept 2011
Lou- sorry to hear bout your tooth. Try not to obsess, I have found visualizations to soundscapes to help when I start thinking and wondering and what If-ng everything. this is my 5th try and you would think I would understand every symptom and still don't. I read that you had bad cramping and now mild, I experience the same thing. Horrible horrible cramping Saturday evening, and very emotional. Then it just passed. The best of luck to you on your blood results. I am gonna POAS in the morning so wish me luck.
Those silly betas can be so deceiving!
