Winter 2010-2011 Cycle Board

[gi]

Lou dont worry the same thing happened to me on Kaylas pregnancy each test looked slightly differently which is why i prefered the digital test with conception indicator as it stopped me from obsessing, though i had a good look at yours and they look just perfect. I dont think after what you have been thro. that you will ever relax fully but it does get easier (well slightly anyway!!!) i never fully relaxed during the pregnancy but as each week rolled by i felt more confident. Best of luck next week, your little 8 cell bundle is sticking tight and going nowhere xxx

Tammy ah you must be soooo excited in anticipation of his reaction!! Jason bought Kayla a valentines card and for the 1st time Ever he signed "love Dad" i was in tears....cant blame my hormones anymore!!! Cant wait to follow your journey xx

Tammy, I am so so so so SO very happy for you! You deserve all the happiness in the world after going through so many struggles. I love the card you're going to give to DH for Valentine's.. how incredibly sweet! He will have to frame it on the wall!

Thank you for your kind words. That's the only thing that's keeping me going.. that I was able to get pregnant. Now to sustain the pregnancy.. My RE said that my progesterone levels were pretty high (forget the number) despite being on vaginal suppositories and my estrogen level was still about 2000, so my ovaries are still pretty stimulated. I was told to stop my medications because my body doesn't really need it. My beta is tomorrow. I am no longer having cramps so I think this is it for me. But it may also be because I stopped the endometrin. Hmm, well, whatever the case, I don't want to get my hopes up only to be disappointed again, so I'm going to come to terms with it being a chemical.

Leora - Great luck on your ER, hun. Hoping you have lots of eggs to choose from!

Everyone else who has been praying for me, THANK YOU!

GECKO! I missed you my friend I bet you are swamped with your two miracles! Thank you again for RE referral, I loved her!

LOU Step away from those sticks girl! that's it, now you wait for the US! Don't even think about getting a beta since by now the numbers increase at different rates. You are fine and your baby is doing great and needs you happy and calm Easier said then done, I know! Tammy and gi are right! Your baby girl is doing great! Yep, hopefully it is nothing You look very pregnant to me as far as those sticks go!

[jkulab]

Tammy - Congratulations! That is so awesome...wishing you all the best and tons of happiness for you and your dh!

[sunshine.12]

Tammy- that's sucha wonderful news!! Big hugs! And absolutely loved your idea of breaking the news to your dh!!
I am 8dpo today.. Can't wait for the 2ww to get over..

Lou- pls dont worry about the darkness of the line. I hardly noticed any diff between those sticks, plus each stick might be having different sensiivity..your u/s is getting closer and closer!

Rio- my cheer leader.. I'm sure those pains is due to bean getting bigger..take care and keep us posted..also I hope the bean cooperates in ending the gender suspense in your next scan..

[Kimber Baby]

Hi ladies,

The BETA confirmed - BFN for me. Pretty down right now.

Kimber

[HopeIsAllIHave]

Kimber, I am SO very sorry for your negative result. I sure do understand how you feel. IVF is such a tough ride, full of rollercoasters. Really had no idea what I was getting myself into, but what other option do we have, right? Take your time to take it all in. Shed a few tears if you have to. Just let it all out. Hope you are able to try again in the very near future. Huge hugs.

[TammyS]

Kimber...I am sooo very very sorry. Ugh, that sucks big time. Cry, scream, kick something...and then try again. Great Big Hugs.

Sunshine...Just a few more days, then. Cant wait to hear the good news!

Jkulab...Thanks! Your turn!

Ashley...Sending you more hugs! I am still praying for a miracle. Just a thought...why not just stay on the meds...just in case the 20% includes you? This happened to a friend of Rio's and I, a few years ago...and she ended up being pregnant with twins. She went against her doc and stayed on the meds. Just a thought.

Gi...Isn't that the coolest? Love it. I'm so happy for you!

[lou71]

Kimber -- I'm so sorry. I know how it feels to get that call. I've been there. Do you have a close friend or family member you could spend some time with to hopefully make you feel a little better and get your mind off it? I hope you will try again. It can still work.

[penny100]

Tammy - Yay!!! So happy for you!!! Congratulations! What a great way to celebrate Valentine's day!

Lou - Put those sticks away! You are going to drive yourself crazy. Try and relax & enjoy being a mom to be. Everything will be fine.

Kimber - So sorry! Hugs to you. Pamper yourself & take the time you need for yourself to heal.

[riogirl71]

Kimber - I am so sorry... huge hugs.

Hope - i agree with Tammy, maybe keep up meds for 2 more days just in case?

Leora - can't wait!

Sunshine12 - I hope you are right! 8dpo today - how super exciting will you POAS? You know you wanna test that trigger out!!!

[rypell1985]

Ashley and Kimber-I am so, so very sorry.

Tammy-new rule. You MUST check in every day. Way to worry us lady! But huuuuuuuge congrats!!!!!!!!

AFM- Had a scan today lining is 11. Im not uncomfortable anymore
apart from when i got the u/s done, jesus that was really
painful? (im dreading the ER). Is it beta? well mine was 2204

[Kimber Baby]

Thanks for all the kind thoughts. It really helps to have others to commiserate with who have been through this many, many times. I think I'm going to go get some really greasy food (and some chocolate) and veg all night.

[jkulab]

Kimber - sorry to hear about your BFN...have all the fried, greasy food as you want...even fried ice-cream!....yummy! next cycle will be your cycle!
