Tiger – so sorry you are still waiting for AF. AF … where are you???

Hopeforbabies – wow you have been a very busy lady this weekend. Sorry about the BD’s … I had the same thing where my right ovary was hidden behind my uterus also. My RE said it would be a challenge but he was able to get to the ovary to extract the eggs … so don’t worry! Good luck tomorrow … we will all be w/ you in prayers.

Rlk1 – waiting is the hardest isn’t it? But, it will be over soon!

Emmax – I am sure everything will work out for you. Yes, your ovaries are swelling but you will be under general anesthesia for the ER, so you will not feel them removed. You might be a little sore afterwards but you can use a heating pad or take something for the discomfort. I personally didn’t need anything the last time I had my first retrieval but everyone is different.

Latrell22 – I am definitely saying a prayer for you!

Babyluv – I hope your daughter continues to feel better!

Helene - How did the beta go today? I hope you didn't already post that info and I missed it.

AFM – I am still stimming and becoming a little more uncomfortable every day. I just keep telling myself it will all be worth it in the end, right??

Hi everyone! I have been in a coma all day today....SOOOOOOOOOO tired!! I have not been sleeping well at night at all. I'm so over this progesterone - but, whatever it takes, right? I had my second beta today and it came back at 799. Everyone seems thrilled with it but I can't lie, I was expecting it to be a bit higher. My first was 17dpo at 299 and this one was 20dpo at 799. April 7th can't get here soon enough - I just want to see the hearbeat already!!!!! Ok, enough whining!!

Latrell - good luck tomorrow - I'll be thinking of you tonight! I'm sure everything will be just fine. LOTS and LOTS of PMA!!

Hope - good luck with ER - I'm sure your RE will get to those ovaries no problem! Let us know how it goes! Enjoy the bedrest too :)

Tiger - where oh where is AF when we need her? GRRRRRRRRRRR

Angela - the stimming is totally worth it in the end! That uncomfortable feeling will be long forgotten once you get your BFP!!

RLK1 - keep up the PMA - no negative thoughts allowed!

Libby - can't wait for the numbers to come in!!!

I know I'm missing a few of you and I'm very sorry....this sleepiness is eating my brain cells. Hopefully I'll be back to normal before long. Have a great night everyone - sleep tight!

xoxo

Forgive me IVF sisters, for I have sinned. :oops:
I felt myself weakening all weekend, my PMA was very low.
I thought about it, but resisted.
Today the temptation was too great - my will weakened and cracked.
I POAS...and got (||)!!! So I am expecting nice beta news tomorrow afternoon (b/w is in the a.m. tomorrow). :)

Emmax and Kushka - welcome!

Angela - yes, it's totally worth it! at least you can physically feel something happening, right? when is your next SnS?

bei and Tiger - doing the AF dance for you both...:)

babyluv - omg, that must have been quite a scene with green smoothie everywhere! i'm picturing the green slime from a TV show called You Can't Do That on Television.

Helene - can't wait to hear what your beta is! why won't they call you? ;) good luck with house hunting too.

latrell - i'm pulling for you too! happy thoughts heading to germany...

kim - i hear you, girl! every day seems to go by SO SLOWLY. almost there, though! come on embaby! oh wait, yours is named Luke, right? :) come on Luke!

teresa - holy cow, you had a busy weekend! so exciting that you made it to ER for tomorrow - woot! come on lil follies, grow! can't wait to hear about your egg report. :D

heeks - looks like a great beta #2 to me - what did your doctor say about it?

afm, i hope you can all forgive me...after being adamant that i wasn't going to POAS and i go do it anyhow. :wink:

Libby – I am so very happy for you. You don’t have to apologize and I probably will do the same thing … lol!

Heeks – I am so sorry this progesterone is knocking you or a loop. I think the most frustrating thing is the lack of sleep at night and then you are so very sleepy during the day! Well, that’s how it worked for me during my last pregnancy.

claudia OHMYGOD!!! the resort i was at didnt have internet in the condo's...wth? i've been going crazy to hear your news!!! YOU'RE PREGNANT!!! :D :D :D i am so so so so so excited for you! i know you are scared and i cant believe you had to go out of town the day after you found out, but i just know everything is going to be great this time!! i cant wait to hear your 2nd beta on friday!!! ((((((((((((((((((love love love love you))))))))))))))))))))))) huge hugs mama!!! :D xoxoxo

libby i soooo knew you would cheat, but i'm sooooo glad you did!! WOOOOOOHOOOOO you're PREGNANT!! i cant wait to hear your # tomorrow!! soooooo exciting!! i am overjoyed for you and DH!! love you!! :D :D :D :D :D

seriously you 2 girls getting your BFP's in the same week has me in tears!! my heart is filled with so much love and happiness for both of you i cant even stand it!! :D

helene did you get your beta today?? i cant wait to hear that number!!

heeks that is a great 2nd beta!! the waiting never gets easier does it? take the time to enjoy this though!! you are amazing!! :D

kim how are you doing PUPO girl??? i'm sorry i left you all weekend!! i am always here for you and thinking of you!! i cant wait to see your BFP!!! xoxoxo :D

drboots good luck with your SnS's!! its not much longer now till you'll be PUPO!! GROW FOLLIES GROW!!! stop spotting stop!!! :)

teresa i'm crossing everything for your ER tomorrow, and that you are a go for ET on friday!! good luck! i cant wait to hear how many beautiful follies you get!!! :)

babyluv holy green puke story!! haha yikes! i hope your DD is feeling better, but i couldnt help smiling a little while reading your story because its the kind of thing that as a mom, you just deal with, and then get grossed out later. even the gross things about having a kid make me jealous and i cant wait to get green puke on me!! i cant wait to hear your beta on wednesday!!!

lauren how are you doing? did af show up yet? its so funny what you said about going out of town to see the sox. me and DH always say how it would be cheaper to fly southwest to baltimore and see them play there and get a hotel then to go to fenway! i do love fenway tough, and i'm in love with dustin pedroia, and WALLY!! hahaha

tiger i''m sending you all the AF vibes i have!! are you on any meds right now?

neffti wooohooo for starting stims!!! grow follies grow!! sooo excited for you to get started!! yay!

to everyone else..i'm sorry if i missed you...i have alot of catching up to do, and i didnt take notes so this is all from my memory of the last 5 pages i had to catch up on!! i hope everyone is doing well!! xoxoxo

afm ok well i seriously think something is wrong with me! i went away and had a wonderful mini weekend vacation and spent the whole weekend in the sunshine enjoying an early spring, and wonderful fresh air and ocean breezes. Then i get to stop taking those horrible BCP's which i hated every minute of, and am feeling better already. Then i check in here and see all this amazing news of BFP's and awesome betas, and follies growing and growing...and i'm so happy for everyone......
but here i am....confession time....i am scared SHITLESS!!! i am so so so scared for this cycle for so many reasons...scared to be canceled again....scared that the last cycle was the best they could get from me and i lost my only chance....scared that i will only have 1 follies again if i do make it to ER....scared that all of the good luck of this board is going to come crashing down on me (because i'm not THAT lucky)....scared that if i get a BFN this time it will be the last chance i have to try to have a baby with my own eggs....scared to feel the heartache of another BFN, and what will happen if i cant handle the pain again....scared, scared, scared!!! :(
i'm sorry..i dont want to bring everyone down....its not fair of me, but i keep getting all weepy thinking about all of this stuff, and i needed a way to get it out. i also think that i'm PMSing really bad after going off of 7 weeks of continuous BCP's. i told DH he should work late this week because i have a feeling i'm going to be an emotional mess!!
thank you all for listening to me. again i'm sorry to suck to PMA out of the room, but i could really use some right now!!

Emmax - Metformin will make you nauseated if that is what you were referring to. Did you just start Metformin? If so, that is a medication that you have to slowly titrate up because it can make you nauseated.
