Popping in quickly to say hi and check on all of you. Know I am thinking of you all and cheering you on from afar.

So sorry for the BFN's :( ((Big hugs))

Anton I'm so so sorry :( I really thought this was it for you. Keep up the PMA it will happen.

Congrats to all that have gotten bfp's.

Unfortunetly I can't keep up with personals or the board at this time do to work and a new puppy(boss is actually out of office at the moment) so figured I would pop on quick to check in.

Did start my Lupron last Saturday the 26th so I will be cycling and as soon my period starts, but thankfully I will be too busy to even think of what I'm doing.

Wishing you all the best!

Anton - honey I am so sorry :cry: I was sure you were going to get a positive. I think you are right that your babies are still waiting for you with your FET. Hopefully it will be easier on your body and you WILL be pregnant SOON!!! Hang in there and keep up your hope and positive attitude! I will be there to cheer you along on the other board!

Margi - good luck with your U/S today - only 5 more hours to go :)

Kynlee - I'm sure everything is ok - I think it is pretty normal to get a little of the peach/pinkish discharge from the progesterone.

Lauren - YAY for finally getting your appeal letter from RE. Good luck to you - hopefully your insurance company will be able to help you out! Too funny about the note on your DH - I'm always curious what they write in the records.

Tess - I think it is good to get your emotions out. I think too often with all of the rollercoasters with this process we just keep the emotions in and move on to the next thing. You have been through alot - it's ok to cry and be sad. We are also considering adoption - I think it doesn't need to be a closing on the door for having a biological baby. Just helps you to start your family and love a child in the meantime. If I had an opportunity knock on my door like it sounds like you are having, I would definitely explore it and see what happens. You have to do what is right for you though.

Greekchick- you probably only have another week to go before your beta bloodwork. At my dr's office they do it 2 weeks after egg retrieval. I know it varies by dr though. You should call and have it scheduled though so you know what you are counting down to!

AFM - thank you all for your support. Getting the negative news just sucks - especially right in the middle of your workday when you can't really fully digest it. I'm so disappointed and frustrated but we knew when there was only 1 embryo left to transfer that our chances were low. Doesn't make it any easier though. I'm ready for AF to come so I can get going on the next cycle - I'd really like to go in for the baseline before we leave on our long weekend. Looking forward to some sunshine and visiting the grand canyon!

Oh, I'm so very, very sorry. You have such an amazing attitude and outlook. I wish mine were as good as yours! I can't wait until you get your BFP and it just might be those two in the freezer.

Anton - I am so very very sorry I thought this was it for you and you would be on your way to your little miracle's.....but a lot of women do better with FET cycles...I have four frosties left still trying to decide they are our last shots at this we have tapped our resources since we self pay for all we are almost hitting the six figure mark after 7 years so we have to know when to say when.....your attitude is amazing & I wish I had one tenth of your strength but please allow yourself to grieve & be sad if you need to it is all part of the process we are here for you if you need us.....xoxoxo, Kt

Anton --- Noooooooo!!!!!!! F@ck! I cannot believe it. I'm so upset reading your post. I was certain it was going to be good news for you. I'm so sorry my dear friend. I am NOT uncrossing my fingers for you until you get that BFP! This process is so unfair sometimes. Do you have frosties? I admire your perserverence. I am currently pregnant from my SIXTH transfer of ONE embryo on day 3. So anything is possible. Remember that. How many cycles are you allowed in your country? Are they of any cost to you?

Tammy -- Excited for your cycle! XOXO

NancyB -- Tough decision you have. Remember, I'm pregnant from a single embryo transfer. It CAN and DOES work!

Margi -- I'll be back on this afternoon for that u/s update. Can't wait!!!

Kynlee -- Praying for your BFP! One more day.

lauren -- Hooray for getting your insurance letter! One step closer. :D

Tess -- I'm excited about this adoption opportunity for you. I hope your meeting goes well. It seems this baby found you.

Greekchick -- I'm not a fan of POAS either. Hang in there for the blood test. The sticks mess with your head. lol

Sweetpea -- Hooray for starting your cycle! Are you on another board where I can stalk you?

Kbillsy-- Ugh... negative news at work is the worst. Happened to me many times. A visit to the Grand Canyon sounds like just what you need!

Anton- Damn it!!! I am so sorry but you have a wonderful attitude. It is contagious :) I will pray the 2 frosties you have are the ones & I believe they are.

Katie-I am so sorry about your beta numbers. I have been there and well it just sucks.

Margi- I am betting 3!!!!!

AFM; Just taking it one day at a time. My mom is trying to get approved for medicaid and it is taking forever. I guess they don't care her life is on the line. She has no insurance so she needs this! We are going there tomorrow to take her to her dr. appt. Thursday. Even though she hasn't got approved yet I told her we would pay the $316.00 for her to see the doctor, so we know what we are dealing with. They won't even do her surgery without the approval of medicaid or $2000.00. I just want to bang my head against a wall.

No, no, no!!! Anton...I am so so sorry. I cant even believe it! I really thought you were going to have good news for us. You have been through sooo much to just prepare for your cycle...I cant even imagine how you must be feeling right now. I'm just sooo sorry. :cry:

Nancy...I was gone all day...and then took a nap. But, I'm here now...let the refreshing begin. Good Luck on your decision.

Margi...I wanta bet on 3...but since I know it would be seriously breaking some old lady stats (and yes I can say that since I am one, too) LOL! I will guess twins.

Kbillsy and Katie...More hugs to you both.

Lauren...Yayyy for getting the insurance stuff in the mail...and having a hot DH, too! lol He does look pretty big in his pics...but bodybuilder? Eh, maybe. I think you should post a pic now. lol

Tess...That would be super awesome if it all works out. My DH works at a school where the girls there are always getting pregnant...I'm always telling him to see if any of them (they all love Bill)...want to give us their baby. lol Kidding, but not really. lol

Greekchick...there is no such thing as a false positive...false negatives, yes. I always poas...but cant say that I blame you for wanting to wait.

Sweetpea...Come join us in the April/May board...I want to follow you!!! No need to worry about personals...just give us some quick updates. We all understand.

Kynlee...I just know you are going to bring us some good news tomorrow!! I cant wait! What time will you be on to tell us?

Amanda...Hoping and praying for everything to get figured out and quick with your mom. I am sooo sorry that you are dealing with this. How awful.

Ok ladies!!! I promise I wasn't trying to be torturous, but the appt went late and then I had to run into meeting for work. Don't y'all hate when work is so intrusive like that?!?!

Ok. Still lots of question marks....I will start there. But some good news: One sac and yolk that measure 5w 6d which is "perfectly" on schedule. :D A few "blurry" spots she wasn't sure whether they were "anything". One larger sac that was peculiar. She couldn't see visible yolk, but it measured like 7w size. ?? Could it be a non-viable embie that was growing and kicking out hcg? Are identical twins in one sac? Is it possible it is viable or non-viable set of twins? Any theories ladies?

He said the sac with yolk seemed right on target so hopefully at least one good baby going to come of this!! :D

I go back Monday (6w5d) to hopefully see a HB. Cautiously happy?

I asked about high hcg suggesting chromosomal abnormalities and he didn't think so--not this early. More likely a vanishing (or to be appearing) twin!

Thanks to all my supporters/stalkers !!! I couldn't make it through all this craziness without you. Really.
