heekinje - You saw your little one how amazing it must be so exiting to see him/her moving and alive and well. I can't wait to see mine also.

Lauren - you poor thing it's your first through it all IVF but you had 2 cancellation I am so sorry. But third one is a charm they say so hoohoo!! Can't wait to see your BETA

Lauren1171 - can't wait for you to POAS also. so exiting...

amanda - blast is the best embryos you can get... way to go girl.

mkd - Wow your beta is very long wait. You are strong not to POAS... amazing way to go girl.

emmax - you looked what up? Why are you scared?

natakia - so you are not going to POAS either... wow you are very brave... I hope it works

Have a good day everyone.

Helene

Wow, just getting a chance to check back in. I went out on Friday night with my husband...even danced...trust me nothing crazy, just a little 2 step & DH & I went out again to day...saw ALL my old girls from college!!! We had fun...I was the spades champion all night...it was great...I didn't really think about being pregnant once. Ok, tomorrow will be 6dp5dt...I'm praying for strength til Friday..don't want to POAS, I have 1 pregnancy test left from previous times!!! I'm gonna do it. I just want the news one time!!

[natakia1108]

Natakia : No symptoms for me at all dear......im beginning to wonder if that is alrite. though a lot of ladies have told me that they went ahead and had a BFP after absolutely no symptoms, and Helene on this board also is preggo and has no symptoms other than, knock on wood, her wonderful beta !! i don't know, maybe if God wills, and this thing doesnt work for us, we have decided to try donor embryos (we don't want only donor sperm/egg, coz it may lead to emotional complications) and if God forbid, that doesnt work out then we go for adoption. Actually, I'm so fond of kids and so thrilled at the thought of bringing up a child, teaching him values, giving her all the knowledge i have and trying to make her a good human being........i wonder.....is it that God thinks i'm not good enuf for the job, and so he refuses to fulfill my longing? but we read about worse people, moms who microwave their babies, desert them in trash cans.......what not. i wont be bad God.....why doesnt he listen to me??
my god, im sorry ladies, im just going on and on......sorry. its just that today, a friend of mine called, and she wanted to know what could be the side effects of an emergency contraceptive. i felt so horrible. why does God do this? gives to those who want to throw it away, and keeps people like us waiting and wanting??

Helene : i love you. we're just faceless people here, but im sure, in the real world, you must be a wonderful person and spreading love and joy to all. your words are so comforting. not just to me, but i read all your posts, you're so nice to everyone. how can anyone be mean to u?

AFM : My non-symptomy feeling continues. i have exactly seven more days to go. the fear and nervousness will start gripping me by wednesday, or maybe thursday. by next saturday, im going to be a nervous wreck, im sure. but glad you wonderful people are here to support.

MKD,

We must have FAITH. The Lord delivers in HIS time not ours...much to our dismay...he gets us to the point where we have absolutely NO ONE else to call on except HIM, to show us that it is only he & HE alone who can deliver. De doesn't like to share his Glory, he is a jealous God. My faith is NOT in my RE it's in the LORD blessing me that it's FINALLY my time and giving a birth naturally is his plan for me. All I can do is pray!!!! I really pray & believe it's my time and MKD God knows your heart just as he knows mine, just when you think you can't take another test, shot, cycle, pill, you're going to get your BFP Keep thanking him for all he's done & on our test dates we'll both be HAPPY!!!

[natakia1108]

Does anyone know how long it takes the embryo to attach to the uterus once the transfer is done?

Go to page 117 on this board & there's a detailed post of what happens for 3dt & 5dt

[lycase]

Lauren 1171 - you got a BNF but yes it's a little early dear. Today and tomorrow are better days... hang in there girl we are pulling for you still ... hugs.

Lauren - bedrest is hard hey... don't you have a laptop you can use then it would be fun

nicliz - well we are glad to have you here too. You are very sweet and are a great addition to our group.

natakia - strange about your story of mother putting baby in microwave my son told me the same story yesterday and I didn't believe it?? That is just not believable. My co-worker told us about a story of kids doing this to a cat and the cat died and he though it was very funny... I was just chocked that he could think it's funny .. I hate him sometimes he is just so senseless.

I am sorry about your feeling of loss and emptyness dear. We can't understand why God leave us women in misery. Sometimes I see that adoption has healled people but not sure about those who can't do that... Not everyone has the money you know.

So you still have 7 days to go hey... that is long dear... I know it's hard but you got to keep the faith and yes no symptomes sometimes is what is good

"Faceless people here"?? With so much heart and compassion... You and everybody here are so wonderful... I hope we all get a BFP sooner or later so we can share our babies stories after and continu to be friends... thanks for everything you said natakia it means a lot to me and is very recomforting

btw your post about how God knows everything and we have to have faith is amazing. I would be so devastated if I had no children... not sure if I would have YOUR Faith?? You are amazing... you surely will be blessed.

babyluv - wow how tragic the way your SIL found out about her adoption. So sorry. I know your parents meant to tell her someday on an appropriate day ... I intend to tell my emby/babies too but no too sure how to do that? I am so glad too my older sister found us she is amazing.

AFM - Trying to sell stuff so we don't have to move big stuff etc.
I will be back today around 10:30 with my first testing results

Have a good day ladies.

THANK YA ALL FOR GETTING BK TO ME

[gi]

Back again!

Lauren yeah it was my cells attacking my poor embroys and babies, it wasnt discovered till i changed clinics and they carry out a wider range of tests some clinics dont believe in elevated natural killer cells but after so many failures and 2 mc i was willing to try anything. I was put on lots of meds to counter act the effect and 4 sessions on Intralipid drips my levels have dropped from 15.6 down to 10.4 - anything under 11.5 is considered normal. Touch wood all is still going well and i will be 11 wks tomorrow!! Best of luck xxxx

Lauren 1171 thanks for asking i am doing really well, no m/s at all just a growing belly!!! On our thread we had lots of girls testing too early but it was all either late implanters or just not enough hcg for the test, will keep fingers and toes crossed for you.

emma i have been reading how anxious you have been and totally understand, i am just 11 wks and have been cramping since 2ww, its easy to get freaked out about it but dont worry your body is just accomodating to been pregnant and your ovaries are just trying to get back to normal. You have a little baby growing inside you and will always experience some sort of sensation.

Natakia – I am glad that you and your DH enjoyed yourself w/ an evening out. It is great to take your mind off of the IVF rollercoaster for awhile. So your big day will be Friday. Did you say you will POAS early or are you going to wait it out? I just couldn’t do it; I have cheated w/ all three cycles. I am so nosey … lol! Let us know if you do find out early!!!

Helene – I hope that you and your family had a wonderful weekend!

Emmax – I am glad that your mind is at ease now after your u/s!

Lauren – I hope you are doing well. I saw your beta is 5/3 are you going to POAS also?

Lauren1171 – I am praying for you! Give it a few days and retest again. When is your beta scheduled for again?

Amanda – How is your 2ww going? I posted your question about the embryos on page 122.

For all of the ladies that I missed, I am so sorry but I am wishing you well also!

Angela - My beta is Tuesday (11dp3dt). I have suddenly not felt too great yesterday and today. I have a slight fever off and on, and every time I go to the bathroom I am thinking AF will be here, because that's what I feel like. I don't know if I should bother testing again or just wait for Tues or AF (whichever shows first).

[Lauren]

Angela- I am ok I guess. Having some pains every now and then. Today I dont feel so good. Alittle nauseated. Got up felt ok..felt alittle sick but DH made breakfast and I ate took muy meds and havent moved off couch..lol i dont know what signs are fron drugs or how I should feel bein my first time. As far as POAS I want too but when? Bc today is day 6 since ovulation..3dp3dt. My beta is for 11dp3dt?

Lauren-im so sorry ur feeling so bad. I agree with everyone that maybe it was too soon. Dont give up yet girl..feel better

Lauren – Your slight fever might be a good sign as long as it no too high. But, I felt like I had a slight fever because my progesterone levels were increasing because I was pregnant … and the AF feeling is normal. I felt it with all of my pregnancies! I am praying for you Tuesday!!!!!!
