Margi sweety where are you?

Margi..... Hoping no news is good news!!

[margi26]

Anna: So happy to hear that the IUI went well. I will be praying that this is IT for you. Sometimes less can be more. You are PUPO!!

Rio: Oh, hon. Seems like your RE’s grouchy day/demeanor spoiled the joy of your u/s. All sounds fine to me. At 5w there isn’t much to see except to measure the sac. Your betas are good and strong. Next week will show you more and should allay some of your fears. This process is just one worry to the next. I am sorry that you are stressed. Take deep breaths and really fully visualize that little bean. He is doing the best he can and so are you. I will say prayers for you. Did you get a picture to take with you?

Regarding the OHSS, how do you feel? That is the most important barometer...I doubt that it ever really “left” even though you lost a lot of the weight, fluid finds lots of places to hide in your body. It is so strange. Take it EASY. Don’t overdo it....and keep chugging the gatorade. It will be gone before you know it. A week or two tops is my bet. Just keep focused on you. And bean. You. And bean. Momma (again) and baby.

Mellow: My goodness! Are you sure they only put two in there? They are awfully small...maybe they "miscounted".. lol...sorry about the headache, but for such a good cause. Congratulations to you!! When do you get to go for u/s? Or do you get a third beta?

Me: Sigh. As I expected. DH was sweet and met me after work and took me to dinner which is why I am just now getting to post. Nurse was so sweet--I only cried for a minute. She said she'd talk with RE about trying to be more aggressive, but they are more worried about hyperstimulating me....I told her I was taking way more stims when I hyperstimmed, but she said based on my E2 level this last cycle she didn't think he would agree to change anything--but she will ask and let me know tomorrow. Sigh. I'm tempted to take matters into my own hands and set my own dose. We shall see what he says tomorrow. "Good news" is that AF should be here soon--I woke up to horrible cramps this morning so I really knew what to expect. Thank you ladies so much for all your support and PMA. I am sad, but ok. I was prepared from all my crazy POASing--wouldn't change a thing there. In fact, I need to order some more ICs for this next cycle as I will likely start stimming on Monday! Let's hope there aren't any stupid cysts to slow me down. I still am planning to be pregnant in 2010.

Margi... I am so sorry I am glad you have an upbeat attitude about the upcoming cycle, I will keep you in my prayers. I am actually starting to get worried about my beta tomorrow... still all BFN on the tests I think I have taken all brands and at least 5 today...I guess we shall see in the morning

Margi~ You are the best, and you deserve the best! I know it's going to work for you! I'm sorry today was a disappointment for you, my heart is heavy for you. Your positive attitude goes far...you're going to get there. I am very hopeful for a good outcome working in your favor

Rio~ Thinking about you tonight...are you feeling more confident at all?

[margi26]

Ladybug: I sincerely hope and pray that you have a positive beta tomorrow despite the negative HPT. What you are doing for IM is really so special and wonderful. I will say a special prayer before I go to sleep tonight. Get some rest...nothing you can do one way or the other at this point. What time will you expect to get your results?

Mellow: Thank you.

Margi - huge group hug and love for you, I don't know what to say other than my heart is breaking for you. I am so very sorry. I also worry about you getting OHSS again after everything you told me. Have you looked for some IVF studies? Some times they share the cost and it makes it a little easier... I wish I was there to give you a big hug. And on top of that you are so amazing to be here supporting us! I cannot thank you enough, thank you for your encouragement and everything. I was stupid to think that after losing 5 lbs I was cured duh, so it was coming back, even my OB said you have so many cysts and you are full of fluid you must be so uncomfortable. My OB is so sweet I really think he was up all night and was overwhelmed today but he assured me it was normal and we should see more next time, but we IVFers worry to no end and until I see that baby with a HB I will worry we have no odds of sucess with IUI because of such low motility, IVF is the only option, this will be our 3rd out of pocket try and I am not sure we could do one more so I have more of a feeling of all or nothing this time. THank you again for being so sweet and I am so very sorry. I am praying big time for your BFP on your next IUI! I will be stalking you!

Lady - I wish you luck for tomorrow and that you get your BFP!

mellow- WOW!!! Maybe even though they put two in you had one of them divide and you have more than 2. That is such a great number so Im sure youre beyond thrilled. Congrats on the exciting news. When do you get to go in for your first US??

margi- I am so sorry you ended with a BFN this cycle. Sounds like you already have plans to start things up again and hopefully you can get that baby next time. You are obviously a strong person so keep your head up and know it really will work.

rio-Glad you feel more confident about seeing the little one yesterday. Im sure it was disappointing not to see the heartbeat but it was really early. Its also exciting you get to go back and see the baby again so soon!!!

ladybugg- Sorry you were still getting the BFN but hopefully you will post great news for us today. I admire you for everything you do for the IM and really hope it works out.

AFM- My stomach is already turning. Im so nervous and anxious its not even funny. Every time I feel the slightest cramp I start to panic a little and worry that we wont see anything when we go in today. Blah. My appointment is at 12:45 so Im leaving work around 12:15- 5 hours left. I will probably keep checking the boards until I go and will try to post as soon as the appt is over.

[ladybugg1999]

Thanks everyone for your well wishes and prayers... It will be about 2 more hours before we know. I have my fingers crossed too !!!!
