afm so i was thinking of going out and running errands today, but then i looked out and saw it was raining, and i decided that one more day of resting would be the better choice! i dont want to ever wonder "what if" for this cycle. i am doing everything i can to make this successful. i was thinking of going to acupuncture today, but even driving makes me not want to go. maybe tomorrow..i'll be 3dp2dt and my lil embie will be at blast...acupuncture might help more tomorrow. idk....i just dont wanna go out haha i'm soooo lazy now. even though i'm bored i dont want to do anything! i did get some bending in today when i woke up and went downstairs to get a drink, and found out that piper got into the garbage after DH went to work, and decided to spread it all over the kitchen and livingroom!! thats always fun to wake up to hahaha he's lucky he's cute!!
i hope everyone is having a great day, and a wonderful weekend....does anyone have any fun plans? i'm gonna be chillin at home....maybe i'll go see a movie!!

*****much love always*****
Oh dear sorry abour your dog leaving you with a mess to clean up... I used to breed cats and they never did that but got ___ stock on their bum that was no fun cause they were persians...

So I read that the test is NOT accurate so I won't be getting it... why get my hopes up if it's wrong???

So I will try and find one elsewhere... There the old Red Cabbage Gender Predictor Test you can find everywhere online and so I might do that for fun :)

Thanks not sure what CVS is but thanks again.

Latrell22 Glad you are feeling much better and I can't believe your beta is on Tues. Seems like your 2ww flew by!

Angela So are you off the bedrest today or are you going to continue thru the weekend? I am feeling much better thanks for asking! The spotting stopped that same day and hasn't returned.

Helene Glad you are staying till all the girls get their bfp's. Your positive thoughts are much appreciated!

Winnie So sorry your embie didn't make it to transfer. I know you must feel very disappointed but I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed that the insurance wont count this as a full cycle and you will get to try again. We are here if you need us!

Franny How are you feeling? Did you name your embie yet? My DH and I have been calling our's Journey and Rueben. My MIL has been trying to convience me for 2 years to name our daughter Journey after her favorite band. I asked what she would want to name it if its a boy and she said she'd name it after her favorite dish that I make for her. Rueben sandwiches! I figured we would humor her until we found out what we are having for sure. :roll:

KushkaDon't fret that your embies weren't perfect. Mine were both B's of average quality and I still got a bfp. Just have faith and you will too.

Bei Any word from RE about your AF? Is he going to give you the Provera?

Paty Hope the pain goes away but I'm glad you have so many follies. Congrats!

Drboots Congrats on your BFP! Im so excited for you!

Heeks Glad you saw a nice heart beat and that you finally have the full sense of being pregnant!

Lauren I think prime uterine thickness is above 7 and below 15. I'd check with your RE because Im not sure if its different for FET's.

Tammy Don't worry I'm breaking out too but can't say if its from the progestrone or not. But at least you aren't alone!

Franca Congrats on being PUPO! Remember to take it easy the next few days.

Ashley I'm so glad you aren't bruising yourself with the Lupron anymore. Sometimes it just happens. :roll: So when is your next SnS? Any word on when you get to start your stims? Can't wait to hear how many follies you get. I'm so excited to have you here with me!

Marci Are you still out there? Any word on the f/u appointment? I miss you and hope that you and your DP are doing ok!

AFM - Had my blood draw for second beta this morning. Please send me prayers and good vibes for a doubled number. I'm really hoping that my little ones are growing away in there. I should hear from them this afternoon and will let you know when I find out. Take care everyone! ~TERESA

Since this is very important to me and I don't want to have douts I went for the big one: http://www.tellmepinkorblue.com/
It's the most accurate and I have already purshaced it.. It cost $219 US so like $250 for me... but hey I work hard and make good money I can afford it. I don't spend in clothes or shoes so bad my dh said when we get this new place with the saving we are going to have I am bringing you shopping and you will look decent even pregnant... that's enough PLUS I did a natural cycle so absolutly NO MEDs cost or monitoring or anything other then transfer which was already paid so I paid nothing this year

So this test uses blood samples so I know it's going to work and be true results. I can do it starting April 25th so by the time it gets here and I move I will do it after that just to make sure it's after the date.

I will of course let you know the results and see if it is indeed accurate at the anatomy scan ...

Isn't it fun to do IVF we get to wait for follies, embies, 2ww, HPT, Betas, U/S to see how many and finally U/S for the gender and then birth to see if all this is true?? What a fun game of waiting...

teresa i have everything crossed so tight for your beta to double today!! the waiting is torture!! we didnt really name our embie yet...last time we named him poopo (PUPO) so we've been going back and forth between poopo 2.0, and just "embie"! my mom said not to name it this time because she thinks it made it hurt even more last time when i got BFN. so we still have time, and if we come up with a better name i'll let you know (and just not tell my mom haha)
thats great that you are using your MIL's crazy names for your embies so you dont have to use them for the baby hahaha
good luck today hun!! xoxoxoxoxo :D

Hey everyone! So I started having some spotting this morning (rust colored, then turned pink later), which freaked me out. I didn't feel a lot of symptoms yesterday and then this. So I called RE and they brought me in for an u/s. And the verdict is....

TWINS!! AHHH!!! Beginning freak out mode now!

Baby A looked great, measuring right on target at 6w5d with a hr of 119. Baby B was further back and a little harder to get to, and measured 6w1d with a hr of 110. Could have implanted later, could be a boy and a girl, could end up with vanishing twins. Too early to tell, but for now both look great and there was no bleeding around the placentas.

I am SOOO happy we were able to go in today and not wait for Monday. Feeling good, but the reality that I will have four kids is definitely scary! Thankfully DH said a while ago that we can get help if it's twins, so that's good. Glad I am not starting DS in kindergarten this year (he's a late birthday, so I want him to be the oldest, not the youngest, when he starts). I plan to do a homeschool/private school hybrid (3 days of private school, 2 of homeschool), and that would have been pretty hard with infants.

ANYWAY, that's the exciting news here! CRAAAAAAAZY!!!

Franca - I had FOUR sex dreams from the the time I started stims until now. DH and I have had sex twice and let me tell ya...didn't take me long! HA! Now I guess we need to take a break for a while because of the spotting, but it's been nice :wink:
Me - 30
DH - 38
DS - 5 (adopted, Russia), DD 3 (adopted, Kyrgyzstan)
IVF 1-2: BFN
IVF 3: BFP!!

You are so right... I have been on these boards since summer 2008 and yes it is very sad and hurtful all those BNF with so much effort on all the ladie's part... It's emotional and not always happy endings... If at least we knew we would eventually have a baby in the end it would be worth it...

Do you think soon the technology will help everyone?

I am so sorry for all of you hurting and suffering... if ever I can help just ask ok.

Hugs.

I'm feeling crampy too which makes me nervous... but yesterday and this morning I was feeling nauseous which makes me happy (perhaps its morning sickness? whoever thought I'd be happy to be nauseous?) So I don't know what to feel. 2ww sucks! Hope everyone else is hanging in there!
