Annpage yay!!!!!!!!!!! I am sooooo happy to read that we both have BFP's this is so exciting! I have to admit I was worried about you and really praying that it works out with a BFP so yay! I agree this part was pure torture! My beta was at 8 AM and they close the office at 12pm and they called me at 11:57 ..lol I was so nervous by then. Well now we relax for a day or two. My next beta is Monday when is yours? Are you having any symptoms yet? DH was laughing at me when I was eating a piece of pie with a piece of cake and cheeze it.. :)

thanks everyone for your warm support it really helped and good luck to everyone in their 2ww and various stages

Ann and Anna....Woohooo!!! Such AWESOME beta news!!! Congrats girls! I told you I had a feeling about you, Annpage! lol :wink: :lol:

Amanda...AWESOME!!! 6! So very happy for you!! Wow!!! Get some rest girlie! :D

Franny...Yayyy!!! It is finally your time!!! Get some rest and listen to DH. I am sooo very happy for you! Enjoy your Eggplant! Haha! I almost forgot about that. I am a believer in pineapple smooties...worked twice for me! :lol:

Gr8countrygirl...yayy for receiving your BIB (is that the right abbrev, I forget, lol). Mine should be coming on Tuesday or so. I agree seeing all this great news is very good for my PMA. This board is rocking the PMA! DH does my PIO and HCG trigger (I cant twist that much, lol)...and this time I will be doing all my stimm shots and everything in my belly...he only did those last time to feel involved. Yes, I do bedrest. Some docs believe in it...some dont. I want no regrets. I got pregnant 2 out of 2 times doing bedrest...(I did miscarry) and dont know if it made a difference...but I have no regrets anyhow. You'll be PUPO before you know it!! :D

Didi...Yayy!! Good Luck tomorrow!! 5 day transfer, right? Awesome! Report in after you get some rest! Make sure DH takes good care of you and makes you dinner in bed. lol :wink:

Hi Nancy...how is everything going?

To everyone that I have missed...I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend and everything is going great so far. Baby dust to all!!! :D

AFA: Just trying to keep busy with Zach...so that the time passes by a little more quickly. Only 4 more nights of bcp's. Baseline is this Friday morning...we'll be gone most of the day...so I wont check in till the afternoon. I just cant wait to get started. I am feeling a little more positive this cycle...even though sometimes I let myself worry about how much has changed in 2.5 yrs and since realizing that I am 42 now...not 39. Recently, I've come to realize that I may be in early menopause...due to all my symptoms. Can girls still get pregnant via IVF if they are in early menopause?? I have never even thought about that. Yikes! :shock:

Since I got my bfp so early, and them have just been waiting for my ultrasound, I haven't had much to say. There are some really awesome good news posts on here so I'd like to give a big shout out to all the happy ladies. Franny - I hope you are preparing for a April due date.. or would it be May? Good luck - keep us posted!!!

AFM I'm just holding in day in and day out. My clinic doesn't give ultrasounds until 7 weeks - don't ask me why - and that isn't until the 23rd - next Friday. I'm pretty nervous, but having lots of MS which I find comforting...

So girls I have a question, after I got my positive beta today the nurse told me to continue the progesterone shots but told me to stop the estrogen suppositories. Has that happened to anyone else? Is this normal? I asked her why I should stop the estrogen and she said that their protocol is to only give it until a pregnancy is established. I however am really scared to stop it. Please advice anyone?

PS my progesterone was 28 today if that matters

Sorry Anna I can't help with this one.... I was told to keep taking estrogen until the later weeks - 10 or 12 I think.
