hi everyone, l am starting cycle 4 in nov - nov 14th to be exact....that date has been on my mind for a while...we were told to take 2 months off to rest the ovaries - l hate waiting!!!

i am doing the nasal spray equivalent this time, as the other cycles where we tried something different and apparantly i did not react as expected....apparantly i have heaps of eggs, but only pulled 4 eggs...first cycle was cancelled, second we had an egg planted but it did not take (it went to blast though) third time we went to the hospital for the transfer, to be told that all eggs (only 2) had died...so we went home...4th cycle..lets see...

to make matters worse (selfish point of view) my twin sister announced she is pregnant (' and we arent even trying') two weeks ago....wow that was hard to deal with....

lets go november people - its our month!!! its our time!!!!

Jenmink- I know some days are so hard to keep positive and the PMA up! That's why I got these meditations that help keep my mind focused and thinking positive. I also listen to the audio book of The Secreet. It's so positive. You've been through hell...and I know all is going to work out for your FET! Try to not to think about what could go wrong. There is no point in that. It will just make you feel anxious! Think about all going as planned and your three little frosties snuggling into your lining!!!! I'm sending you lots of positive energy and FET dust!

Ladybug- Welcome and bless you for being a surrogate! I almost had to find one due to a severe tear in my cervix from my last pregnancy! But I ended up having a transabdominal cerclage put on instead! Hopefully we will all get to know eachother over the next 10 months as we grow our babies! I wish you tons of baby dust!

Babydreamz- I'm sorry about your lead follicle causing your cancellation! URGHHHHH! What is the next step? (big hug)

Jessica- congrats on your 5 eggs. You know it only takes ONE good one! Can't wait for your update! xo

zenscraper- Welcome to the forum. You'll find so much help here! There are many veterans unfortunately!

AFM- just growing some follies. hehehe Going for an u/s and b/w check tomorrow. Today is day three of stims. Saw the acupuncturist yesterday. It really helps me feel better!! Sending everyone a huge hug and baby dust! xo

Welcome to the group...I see several new names. We are glad to have you join us. :) This is turning out to be quite a busy group.

easley~ good news, glad you don't have to wonder when anymore.

leorira~ I'm sorry you are still waiting. What a pain. It was like 2 weeks after I got a negative preg test that mine finally started. I hope it's soon. That is the worst possible wait there is...it's hard to have lost a baby and then not be able to try again until that nasty AF rears her ugly head. Keep your chin up. I've been through that more times than I like to count...you will feel a lot better once the show gets on the road. :)

rio~ We are visiting the bay area this next weekend...thinking about moving there. :)

AFM~ Taking it easy today, before the chaos of next month begins. It's going to be nuts. We have company coming right during retrieval...so much for keeping this cycle to ourselves. Facing going into the holidays without our son this year is going to be tough...so in a way I am thankful for the busy schedule, and I am praying we are able to go into Christmas with some new hope and good news. Started Christmas shopping, since I won't have time to get it done anytime soon...I like to keep ahead of the game on things like that. Waiting on AF, and have baseline monday afternoon, still on lupron and starting stims wednesday. It seems like it took forever to get here. Hope you are all having a fun weekend.

Welcome Zen and ladybugg!

easley4: gald AF dance workd for you, waiting game is so tough.So do you start Lupron soon?20 units?

Jessica: It takes just one. It will def. work out. Keep us updated about your ET, is if after 3 days? 5 days?

Karen: Thanks! yeah, I am waiting for my periods and am back to getting my dose of Lupron.

Jen: Stay positive, you are almost there, just ten more days to FET! Yay!

BlessedMom: I started Lupron (again!!) yesterday. Seems like you and I will be doing ET/ER around the same time. Yes, my Dr. asked me to rest for at least 2 days after ET.

Leorira: will do special Halloween AF dance for you.

AMF: Started 20 units Lupron , I am so excited to start the shots again, as I long I am doing something to move the process, I am happy for right now. My estrogen has gone down from 130 to 80, hopefully it will decline further. I am asked to take Lupron till first day of periods (expected Nov 18/19) after which they will do US/BW and start stimming. Looks like ET/ER will be last week of November. Hopefully I will be able to get good news before my 37 bday, that would def. be my happiest birthday!

Happy Halloween ladies!!I am already thinking about what my cute as a button baby will wear for 2011 Halloween

Mellow and babydreamz

I can totally relate all I have is the ovulation testing twice a day and every time I go to do it I feel a little closer to a BFP. I know it is silly but it really cheers me up.

For us we will hopefully get a BFP on DH's bday Nov 17th. I am sure the beta will be 2 days later but I am so hoping for a wonderful birthday present for him.
