Sorry to hear of the BFNs today!

Tammy-- Strep-- Yuck! Hope you feel better soon

Amanda-- If you have two decent embies that is something to celebrate! I will be thinking of you! Dont lose hope!

AFM--FET was at 1pm, have been on the couch since and will stay here through tomorrow night. Both made it through the thaw. One was excellent and one was okay quality. I feel like this is not going to work, I know its bad to be negative, but I just have a feeling, ya know? Anyway, if it does, I will be surprised! I will POAS in 6 days.

Neffi...It will work! I just know it will. Keep the faith! I went through bouts of negativity too....so I do understand. Did you do a 5dt? 6 days is early to be poas...it did work for me...but it was sooo very very faint that I barely had a line...if you are just a few hours too early...to see a line...dont let it ruin your PMA, okay? Just know that it is too early. That is what I told myself...because it is the truth.

Amanda – I am sorry you are stressed but don’t be. Usually, a few embryos don’t make it after they are fertilized or some will not fertilize at all. It happens with retrievals all the time. During my cycle, I had 10 embryos on my right ovary and 10 on my left ovary and my RE couldn’t reach my left ovary because it was hidden behind my bowel and uterus.

My point is that my RE retrieved only 10 embryos and I transferred 1 embryo and only two made it to freeze after they reached the blastocyst stage. I couldn’t believe it … out of 20 eggs that both ovaries generated; I only had 3 that were of good quality. This is so different from my cycle from just a 1 ½ ago. But, your body reacts to the medications different sometimes.

Just remember this; it only takes 1 embryo for you to get your BFP. I am proof of that!

Good luck tomorrow!

Angela

Angela - wow my God I am chocked. I knew it deep down but we never want to believe right... even I was on the protective side of things pulling for you but with being afraid so much... God has answered my prayers and yours and all of ours for your little baby Angela and you will have that little one in your arms. How amazing that you can relax now and start enjoying the next 7-8 months... we can enjoy them together and with everyone who have their BFP and the ones who will get it sooner or later... God bless you and all other with your little ones. Big hug for patience... how exited you must be :)

So your u/s is next Thursday 2 days after mine is ever long hey!!! I find it so long even though I am so busy... hang in there a little longer dear.

Tammy - Dear one... the most important right now is resting and your little baby... yes there are times when our dh have to take care of everything like me tonight I decided enough fooling around I got to finished that basement of toys and so yes even though dh had baby all day and now all evening and all the other kids I had to do this... Sometimes it's also kinda of protection our bodies know we have to rest so they force us too :) does it make sense... anyhow. I hope your little boy is going to stay ok with his operation and that you get better real quick... do you have antibiotics?? sorry you are so down and loosing all energy...hang in there girl ok.

amanda - I know your 2-3 embies are going to make it. Mine were not even good and one stuck... I tell you they are going to make it and you will get your BFP... keep up the good work girl. Can't wait for your transfer...

neffi - I don't know why you think it's not going to work dear, you have one excellent and one ok one... the excellent one will definitely make your pg and who knows you might even get both of them going... I am sure things are going to be ok girl.

Lauren - how are you doing girl. You sound so at peace... amazing. You know your friend up in Heaven will be looking down at you and helping you for your embies ... you know that right?

AFM - packed the whole basement today full of toys sorted and well organized I am so happy... it took my mind off of things. Just people on some groups are so mean and hurtful... its' like when they say something that they don't think there is someone on the other end reading posts... People when they are hurting take it out on others out of jalousy (can't spell??) and I was the target and they just flamed me... oh well just got to go and continu living and go somewhere else...

It happends so often. I guess it's because I am on so many treads. I am so stock at home with the kids that I don't have many friends (actually I only have one ;) So I am on all sorts of treads and sometimes people decide to attach another member and wow it gets ugly... I try and stay quiet at times but others I really got to go and defend the person... I mean I know we are not faces but we still are people with feelings. Anyhow I was so crushed I cried all night and this morning I left and took the kids to school and forgot my daughter... can you believe it ... I was so lost... luckily my dh was home with baby so she was ok for the 5 mins I drove away... Oh people have a way of making others feel bad just because they are either jalous or envious and feel life is not fair.

True life is NOT fair... we all know that here... with mc, baby loss, stillbirth, BFN and BFP stolen after a few days or weeks.
It is NOT fair but we still NOT take it out on others.

Oh well sorry for letting myself go a little you girls are the best and don't deserve to hear this.

Good night ladies and congratulations again.

Helene - please don't let the words of people who don't know you make you feel sad or bad. It is just like you said, we only know each other through these boards and we shouldn't be judgmental regarding anyone's decisions. I am not sure which board you are having problems with but maybe it is time to remove yourself from the negative drama because you don't want to put more stress on yourself, your baby, and your other children. I always say, if possible, I avoid negative situations because life is stressful enough that I will not be around negativity on my time … lol.

Thank you so much for your support! It really means a lot!

Lauren 1171- Thank you so much for the positive words and support!

Ladies: so I have to apologize for being MIA. But ever since Tuesday I've had a bad case of the runs :oops: (I know TMI) but it's killing me it doesn't seem to slow down & it's tearing up my stomach. I've been taking Pepto, but if it doesn't slow down by tomorrow morning I'm going to call my RE....I had my ET on Sunday, started progesterone shots last Friday & estrogen patches this past Monday... could it be a side effect of one of shots or the patches? has anyone experienced this?

    Helene : thanks for ur words of encouragement, they mean so much to me. im a nervous wreck. :roll: why are u upsetting urself so much over what some faceless e-person wrote dear. just take the good vibes, leave out the bad things. maybe all the pregnancy hormones are making u sensitive and vulnerable.......take care.

    Angela : Congratulations, now just sit back and enjoy urself, stop thinking that something may go wrong. ur so lucky, enjoy that feeling.

    Lauren : I can understand how u feel, what did u do? how did ur transfer go? here's wishing you good luck for a BFP. :)

    Everyone else......good luck, i pray for y'all everyday :)

    AFM : Waiting waiting waiting. Had that embarassing close to orgasm in my dream again :oops: disgusting, embarassing......but i can only share it with u girls, and im thankful for that :) wonder what is going on inside. im so far away from my beta, wonder when the day will come......
