Millersmommy I am so excited to hear your great news :) praise God.

Annpag Welcome and I am so glad that someone else is at the exact same point as I am and it is great to have a 2ww buddy.

AFM Trigger tonight and ER on Sun the 4th. Very excited now! I can't believe that we actually made it since last sat we were told that most likely this would be a canceled cycle. We have 4 maybe 5 follies and estrogen is 900 so I am not sure if it is good enough but the nurse told me it is good.

Thanks to all of you for your support this past week it really helped and we are exited to make the transition into the 2ww which I know will have its own worries.

Millersmom- I am so happy for you!! What great news!

For those of you in the 2ww, questioning when to POAS. I got my BFP 6dp5dt. It was a very very faint line. The following day I took a digital one to see the word 'pregnant'. I know everyone is different, but I hope that helps. Some of you have lots of will power! I never could have waited to POAS. I told my DH I would wait until 8dpt and snuck out and bought some early, and started on 4dpt... way too early, oops!

afm... Sunday is our 2 year anniversary. Time flies!! No big plans, just the parade and dinner. We have a few BBQ this weekend, and other things going on to keep busy. We have our first u/s on Tuesday, and I am looking forward to it! I am hoping we can see a heartbeat, and find out how many lil beans stuck!

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday weekend. :D

millersmommy- Congratulations! :) Great news, I'm sure you are relieved!

I go in for transfer tomorrow morning, just in time for a fun weekend that we "had" planned...and we have company. They will be a good distraction during my wait. :) I have 3 embryos that were 8 cells this morning and one 4 cell. We think we will transfer 2, but if there is a third not looking real great we may go ahead and transfer 3. Very scary to think about 3 babies, but we will see. :)

Well, I got the call from the doctor and we are pregnant, BUT (and it seems there is always a but with us), my levels are not where they want them to be. My first Beta was 25! My progesterone and estrogen are low also, so it's more drugs and a retest on Tuesday. I'm a nervous wreck, it feels a lot like our miscarriage in November, but I'm trying to be optimistic. Does anyone know of someone with that low of an HCG at 4 weeks?

Hope everyone has a great 4th of July weekend! We all deserve one!!

millersmommy- Congrats again. We are all so relieved to hear the good news.

hilda- Congrats to you too!! Hopefully the numbers are just starting out low and will jump up by next week.

mellow- Good luck with your transfer tomorrow.

Byrne- Congrats on 2 years!! I agree time does fly by once your married. It seemed like it took so long to get to the wedding, so its hard to believe when the anniversaries roll around.

annashope- Good luck with the trigger tonight and the Retrieval on sunday. Its so exciting that the time has finally come. Just remember it only takes 1

annpage- Good luck to you tomorrow. Try not to stress about it. Just know that its all worth the baby in the end.

AFM- Did anyone who already has the BFP do a 3dt? I really want to test but dont want to do it too soon and get a negative. I saw that byrne tested 8dp5dt, which I guess means I would have to wait until 10dp3dt...but I dont know if I can wait that long. The tests are sitting there calling my name.

question to all of you regarding the POAS how are you guys able to test so soon? is the trigger shot out of your system that quickly? our trigger is 10,000 hcg and I have read that it stays in your system for 10 days does anyone know if that is true?

Hilda Congratulations on your pregnancy! :) You never know what's going to happen. I'm not at the top of the charts either and although I wish I were, I'm just giving all my energy into believing in this baby. Last time we were pregnant in February, I had a 'feeling' that things were wrong, and we had a blighted ovum. Our numbers were actually not half bad, and everyone was upset at me for not being totally excited. The thing is, though, you never know if it's just plain fear or true instinct. For now, you do have a confirmed pregnancy and you have a real reason to hope that things will keep rising and growing, so I'd hold onto that! Did you check www.betabase.info? There are some very low numbers on there that resulted in very healthy babies! We'll be anxiously waiting for some great numbers from your next beta.

Good luck with your transfer! When I had my fresh transfer, we did two excellent embies and I declined the third (not as great quality), only to find out that the third blast actually hatched and had surpassed the two that we implanted. I have a feeling that's the one that I'm currently carrying! Rest up and take it easy this weekend....best of luck.

Some of those early bfps are from FET's - so there isn't a trigger. I tested out my trigger from about 6dpo with my fresh cycle and saw the lines go away then return and get darker starting at about 10dpo. My blog has photos and info from my feb testing if you want to see. And yes, I suspect the trigger stays in about 10 days but that depends on your metabolism. If you're curious, you can take a test, but you'll have to take another to see compare. Good luck!!
