hi ladies -
thanks for the welcome, Steph... funny...i have two other friends from this board that both have children close to my DS's age (15-17 mo) both named Stephanie. Guess there are a lot of Stephs out there!!
Ktelise -

not that you were asking me either... but just to throw my 2cents in... i totally thought i was going to have twins with my DS. at 17DPO, my beta was 1700, 19dpo, it was 3978 and continued to rise on my third, don't recall that one off hand, tho. One of my Steph friends (mentioned above) was 3 days apart from me with ER/ET... her numbers were also high, so we were certain we both had twins (both had transferred two) - She did, I didn't. Those betas are tricky things! I don't want to bring u down, cos I know twins would be fab, but honestly, i was a little bit sad when i found out we had one (not that i'd trade that boy for a gazillion dollars!!!) but for a minute, it was sad. at the time, we thought we would only have the chance to do that group of cycles (we had 6 for 2 - shared risk- and got DS on 3rd try)... but now that we're trying for #2, we decided to NOT try for twins when we found out that our RE recommended a eSET (elective single embryo transfer). ANyway, all that to say... hope it's twins!!!
dandme - congrats again to you, hon! sounds like you are getting more acquainted with your little one(s)! I know you can't wait til US!!!! and I think that the more DH & i think about it, we will probably not be able to bring ourselves to donate... (Sorry Katie

and others) - my DH said the other night, "every time i think about them, I think about Gage" (our DS) and he just can't bring himself to let them go. Honestly, I was relieved... i knew that donating was the only choice I could potentially live with, but really want to keep them... but 5 is a lot, and even with the thaw process, we still stand a good chance of having 3-4 left. I have a friend who has quads, but those are her only children. I want to give them all a chance, and a good life, but I don't want them to be over-crowded either. We really could only transfer more than 2 if we moved closer to my family (5 hrs away) but DH can't retire for another 3 yrs... which actually might work out ok!? but then i think about our ages... quads at 40? whew... could be frightening!!
ok, gotta run. beddy bye calling my name! hugs girls!
