Hi ladies. I"m still doing the AF dance. Today will make day 9 on Lupron. Anyone wait this long for AF? I started on CD21. My nurse told me between 4-7 days AF should come. My last cycle it took 7 days. But I was on 20 units that time...this time I'm only on 10 units. Should I be worried? Cause I feel like AF is coming, but nothing. ggrrrrrrr. Even put on my nice panties.

Annie- I'm very sorry your cycle got cancelled. Its crazy how much one clinic will differ from another. My clinic prefers to do 3dt and will only do a 5dt if there are over 4 embies at A quality. Take time to cry and heal then make sure you find out what the RE thinks happened and what they plan to change for next time. (((((((hugs)))))))

Klinger- Congrats on being PUPO with three embies! I cant wait for your beta and BFP to roll around. Oh happy dance!!!!!

Nancy- Dont worry tomorrow will be here shortly and you will be PUPO too. Are you putting back three also?

Ester- Glad you got your baby-ina-box. Did you say you already started your lupron? How long will they have you on this and when do you get to start your stims?

Tammy- Hope everything is going ok with your stims. Send an update or I'll send the troops to come find you!

Ryann- I'm so sorry your cycle got pushed back but we want everything to be perfect this go round. Try to hang in there and know that you will be rewarded with a beautiful baby.

Sorry everyone I'm having such a hard time keeping up with all of you so my personals are pretty lame. As always I wish everyone lots of baby dust!

Afm- Ultrasound today showed "little to no improvement" with the hemorriage but the NP said that the pregnancy itself is "great". Baby is measuring about 8 1/2 weeks and I could see leg and arm buds. Wont see the Dr. until I'm 12 weeks on the 15th and wont get anymore u/s until the 16th when I have my Nuchal Translucency scan. I just have to trust that God is watching over my little one for me and that everything is alright.

Quick update, personals later...

They moved my beta up a day... It's TOMORROW!!! They wanna do an u/s to check for fluid pockets in my abdomen since I'm super bloated, but they are pretty optimistic. The exact word was "encouraging" in reference to the symptoms.

I'm so excited and nervous... Holy moly! Wish me luck!

BEST WISHES TO SONYA AND KAYLIE!!! Everything crossed for you, girls!!!

We are all three getting betas tomorrow.... encouraging is great, babyblu!!!

I'll be getting mine firs thing in the morning. My clinic is awesome about getting back to me quickly.. I should know by noon. I know I'll get something.. it's that I really want it to be at least 80 and I really prefer 100.

Klinger-Thanks for the pineapple info! I think I may give it a shot I just wont over do it? I like to get the little cups of pineapples they sell at WAWA here and eat those but I may have to cut one up so I dont over do it! You are also so funny about your beta date...but I must agree when you say next week it seems like its right around the corner! I am glad your feeling well. Letting those embies settle in and before you know it you will be getting your BFP I just know it!!! I am getting excited..I dont know when my ER will be hopefully by early next week I think that report was good for day 4..Im not sure bc my last cycle I didnt respond that well..but im happy

Ryann-Prayers for your NATURAL baby!!! That would be awesome..my nurses always say things like that do happen!! But if not you are starting our journey this week and thats exciting!!!

Rypell-So annoying when we get those bumps in the road! Like Sonya said its annoying but at least everything will be just PEREFECT for your frosties to come home soon!! Hang in there

BETA GIRLS!!! GOOD LUCK tomorrow

Tammy-Someone said were gonna send the dogs out for you...too funny! Hope all is well..I need a stimming

Karen & Bakers Baby-AF DANCE

Baby blu and Sonya - I will say a prayer for you tonight and tomorrow. I wish you BOTH the very best. I have my labwork at around 8:30AM and should know by early afternoon. My boobs are absolutely HUGE tonight!!!!!
Could be from the Estrace but I tend to think there's a little something cooking in there!!!! God, I hope so!!!!

I wish you the best.

Goodnight everyone!!!!

This summer I was on 10 of Lupron and my period was delayed and I got it 11 days after I started Lupron. Even though my nurse said 4-7 days as well. Also my period was lighter.

I hope this helps

[Karian]

I promise I will do a better attempt at personals!!! Here we go:

klinger13: I'm still waiting for AF (in the next two days) so I can start with the follistim. I'm very anxious and as riogirl71 I'm also praying for a natural BFP, it would be amazing!..... I can only hope!

Sonya, Kaylie and Baby_blu: Wishing you the best for tomorrow!!!... Please let us know tomorrow!... it really makes me happy to hear great news!

Nancy: Good luck on your ET!!!!.... You will be PUPO soon!!!

Annie: I'm truly sorry!!!... I'll be praying for you and I wish you the best.

AFM: I'm really bad at writing personals, but I'm here every night!... I don't want to keep telling my DH the same thing, and reading everyones posts makes me feel better.... I feel like there are a lot of other people out there that understands me and are going through the same thing. Thanks for being here!!!

Hi ladies,

Just found out that none of the embies survived, our transfer for tomorrow has been cancelled. We were doing a 5 day transfer. That is all my clinic does. Anyway we are devastated and trying to figure out what our next step is. Thanks for all of your support. Good luck to all of you!

So Sorry Annie. Take some time to be sad and deal with your pain. <<hugs>>

Karin - That is too funny about putting on your nice panties. I said the same thing this weekend. Nothing but light colored pants and panties to work for me this week!

[karenthescorpio]

Anna- thanks for the insight about your experience with Lupron and how long it took you to get your AF. I have a feeling it will come on Wednesday...which will ironically be day 11 of Lupron...as well as when I would normally expect it. I'm going to call my nurse tomorrow just to make sure this isn't a red flag of not being supressed. I haven't had a headache in days and I'm not as tired as I was. hmmmm.

My clinic also decides on what day to transfer based on how many and how good the embryos are doing. We are put on 'alert' on day two and told to be ready for anything on day three in case the embs take a turn for the worse overnight.

It's okay to use a heating pad after ER but careful after the ET.... you don't want to change the temperature too much. I love baths and have been keeping them just under hot and not staying in too long... oh the things we sacrifice. Hope things go great - keep us posted!
