My apologies ladies--our internet was down last night and today I was teaching so didn’t get computer time....a lot to catch up on...I’ll do what I can...

Ryann: My dear! I am so sorry that you got so sick...please take care of yourself. Hope the Zofran is doing its job.Image

Jieb: I am so very sorry. Take the time you need to pamper yourself and grieve however feels right for you. Good luck with your appt tomorrow. ((HUGS))

Tammy: OMG girl. You are such your own best advocate. I am so glad that you are getting things adjusted. I am praying for your bean and that you get a great doubling beta...hang in there.

SD: 18 is awesome for 10dpo!! Congratulations!!Image

Leora: Glad you are feeling better...I was worried at first when I read your earlier
post...still doesn’t hurt to take “OHSS” precautions. ET on Sunday!! Woo hoo!! This is IT my friend.

Kimber: Congratulations on getting back in the saddle again. Every clinic is a bit different on when you can start again, but you shouldn’t have to wait long--unless you feel the “need” to.

Shell: 4 is still wonderful. Keep up your PMA and we will all pray for your embi-babies as they wait to come home to momma. When is your transfer scheduled?

Carol: Don’t give up on this one until AF raises her ugly head...I am hoping that your BD action hit its target!

Hope/Ashley: CONGRATULATIONS!!! I knew it! I am so very happy!!! This is fabulous news...Image

Samantha: Excellent report! Rest up.

Sherry: So sorry. Take time to pamper yourself, scream, cry, drink, eat...whatever soothes you during this time. We are here if you want to vent. (((HUGS))) And best of luck with your FET.

Anton: Getting closer to those needles! 8)

HopeThisWorks: Good luck tomorrow! I have everything crossed for you.Image

Katie: Yeah for the big refund! Can’t wait for you to get this show on the road and bring those babies home to momma. Your 2ww should start right after my BFP!!!

Tiger: Oweee!!! :-( But so glad that all is clllllleeeear for those super-duper Superman Sperm to find their way to make your baby!!

AFM: Dancing Queens can all take a break!! AF finally arrived!! Whew! I was quite discouraged when I woke up this morning to--nothingness--except evil cramps. I was worried I was going to get even more postponed which will mess up our travel plans, but whew...a bit after lunch she rose her evil head. (I think it was you late rising West-coaster-Dancers that slowed things up. :wink: ) But all is well...except I still don't have my needles. :shock: She called in to a local pharmacy that called me to say they have needles that are "similar" to the ones ordered. Um. No deal..I am not going to take chances on too large, or differently calibrated needles. How hard can this be. I am not the only woman in town doing this--I am pretty darn sure. So tomorrow will have to switch the script to another pharmacy. So--bloodwork and SnS tomorrow! This is my first Lupron cycle, so not sure what to expect tomorrow...what is "good"? I've been on Lupron for, like, 10 days now. Should I expect a good AFC? So 1 week from tonight I will be resting in CALIFORNIA!!!! I was hoping and originally planning to have been stimming for 8/9 days before I headed out. Now it will be only 6 or 7 if you count next Thursday....hopefully I will still be on track with ER/ET and won't have to change my return flight..but we shall see. I'll do what I need to do. I am not packed...but getting excited about getting closer! If everything looks a go I will be stimming tomorrow night! Gonal-F + Menopur here I come!!! :D :D

Hey girls I am so bummed out tonight. My neighbor's dog who was abused and they rescued him a year ago got away 2 days ago, he is very shy and won't come to anyone so I happened to be home and saw he got away by forcing the front door. I kept him around throwing treats until they could get here from the store to grab him, I grabbed their other little dog no problems. There was a storm today and he got out again, I was at work and they weren't home. DH and I and lots of other people were looking all night for him, we made fliers and everything. Then the neighbor got a call from California Highway Patrol that his dog was hit and died quite a ways from here. My Dh went with him to help him get the pup. I went over to her house to comfort her with DS but I was a mess and in tears myself. I feel so bad for them right now, it is so tough to lose your best friend. THanks for listening!

OMG GIRLS!!! LOOKIE!!! The test strip is darker this morning...I can even catch it on camera and see it without holding it up to the light now! The comparison test from yesterday...is a positive too...but can only be seen when held to the light and squinting. Maybe there was 2...and maybe we caught the estrogen issue in time for the second one. Estrogen is like oxygen! MY BABY IS GROWING NOW!!! :D

Tammy-what a great way to start the morning! that has GOT to be a good sign! Pump yourself full of that estrogen now...maybe you should go into the medical advocacy field (if such a thing exists)! I'm so happy for you :)

Awww...Rio, how awful about the dog. Soo very sad.

Margi...Yayy for AF finally arriving! Hope it doesn't mess up your plans at all.

Katie...Awesome news about the refund. I know you must be very excited to get started.

Deftonesmo...Grow Follies Grow! Glad to hear everything is looking good!

Anton...Hoping and praying for a terrific cycle for you!! Thank you for all of your support.

SD...Cant wait to hear what your beta is today.

Ashley...I am just sooo thrilled for you! I am betting that it is definitely NOT ectopic.

Leora...Yayy for a Sunday transfer!! I'm soo excited for you.

Anna...Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers, I think I forgot to say that in my other post. You coming to check on me...when you are dealing with so much yourself...means alot. I'm praying for you.

Ryann...LOL! Thanks! Estrogen is flowing!

AFM: I am just sooo over the moon right now....after getting 4 days of extremely faint lines that were almost identical in color...and could only be seen by holding it to the light and squinting...and now a line that looks like my beta jumped from 7 to 14 in 24 hours! Yesss! Remember when I mentioned that I had implantation feelings on day 6/7 (overnight) and on day 9? (I did feeling something very slight on day 8 too but not like day 6/7 and day 9.) Maybe there really was 2....this would make alot of sense right now. If hcg would've started secreting on day 13 (implantation starting on day 9) according to the 3 day chart...it would've been about a beta of 5...and on day 14...a 7.0...day 15 (today)...possibly around a 14. See what I mean? lol

hi everyone :)

SDTrying-Congratulations on your BFP!!! I wish your beta doubles/triples reach the 1000 next time! :D [img][IMG]http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w11/ ... fpfade.gif[/img][/img]

Tammy-I don't to say Iam sorry! :x I am being positive for Satarday's beta! I sure we are going to here some great news from you! so super you took control over your body! everything willl be allright! [img][IMG]http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww91 ... s-up-2.gif[/img][/img]



Tiger-Glad everything went well with your HSG. i hope that this is your step closer to your baby! :) [img][IMG]http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p280 ... s/Wave.gif[/img][/img]



Riogirl-I love my sticker! I am waiting allright! :D ....so sorry about your neighbours dog :( may he rest in peace... :( [img][IMG]http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww17 ... shucks.gif[/img][/img]



Lou-I hope the spotting goes away sooonnnn!! like others said, this is common thing to happen, so just relax and dont stress your self! take good care of you and your little bean :) ...4 more days to u/s! you are pregnant!! enjoy it!!!! take a couple of days off and relax!!! [img][IMG]http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww17 ... mer_52.gif[/img][/img]

Justsolost- 4 fertilized is good! dont get disappointed! [img][IMG]http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/ww17 ... -00521.gif[/img][/img] :) when is your ET?

Kimber-Glad you are back on track. :) ..From my experience, my RE skip a cycle and then start again. After a BFN period comes, then another period and then you can start. Personally I did 4IVF's with the same doctor and I was so pleased with him. we had good chemistry and I trusted him in everything. But...after our last negative we have decided me and my DH to go see and another doctor...maybe our luck will change...so we shall see...It is very important that you feel comfortable with your RE ! I would give your another chance. :idea: since both RE are in the same clinic why dont you ask for a join decission or advice from both of them. A lot of doctors cooperate with each other all the time. my 1st RE did that with another 2 doctors in his clinic (my doctor owns the clinic). all the best to your decision! :) [img][IMG]http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee57 ... oticon.gif[/img][/img]

Did you ladies feel anything before getting your bfp? Wife says she doesn't real feel much different. Some soreness but that could of been medications they had her on throughout this process I'm guessing...

Hope...Some people do, but MOST do not. Some girls are just more in tune with their bodies. Some also get implantation spotting some dont. I have and also have not with different pregnancies. You can not compare yourself with others. Hang in there! Praying for you!

Sherry....everyone is different. For me it is exactly 5 days from the last shot. For others...could be anywhere from 1-7 days. Are you on the shot? Lauren is on suppositories and gets her AF 2 days before it is due when doing injectibles. So it is really hard to say. But, if I were to to guess (if you are on the shot)...I'll guess 3-5 days. Sending you another extra big hug.
