Margi Thank you for stalking and for your encouragement. I am trying hard to have PMA right now. It cant be over. I have to get both my embies transfered on Saturday. God has a thousand prayers from me in his inbox :lol: and he wont let me down :) . Wow 8 weeks already. I am so happy to hear the twins are doing well and they are on track on heart beat and size YEAH :D . I hope the bleeding stops soon.

Moorebaby Your numbers are looking GREAT :D . And that lining.. Yeah!! I see a BFP coming your way. All the best with the ER.

Heather Congrats on those numbers :D . Hope the fertility report with be just as good.

AFM My ovaries are a lot better today. Thank God. I was starting to wish i had taken the pain killers. I am waiting for the fertility report. They said they will call me by lunch time..REALLY :?: . You would think they would understand how anxious i would be with only 2 eggs to know how they are doing. Ah well...

May your BFP be the start of many BFP's to follow on this board!! :D Image

CT-Michele- I am sorry you didn't get those eggs... :( But hey! 5 eggs sound good to me! I wish you an excellent firt report! :D Image

She called me the night before and told she needed my possitive aura to help her cope with her dentist appt. Of course I couldn't deny! What she told me was so sweet! besides, we are like sisters with my SIL. She is 5-6 years older than me and she is amazing and I love her. She did pretty good! and so we went to IKEA to buy some amazing new summer stuff they brought. I went to the care home afterwards to entertain my "CRAZY" friends and then I had a girls night out with my SIl and my best friend :mrgreen: went for sushi first (I am eating sushi with every chance I get before I am preggo! I just love it! :wink:) and then we went to this cozy lounge and tea bar to watch some live jazz. A friend of mine owns the place so it has become THE place to go when we hang out with friends...it was pretty crowded last nite... I had my amazing Rhoibus orange & eucaliptus tea and the girls got their J&T's :evil: ...hopefully I will catch up on them in a year or so! :lol: We had a great time and we set our next date for next wed :wink: ...Tonight we (me & DH) are watching the new episode of "HOUSE" and maybe another movie... I am making my "antonia's special salad" tonight and pop-corn for the movie. Ice berg, avocado, tomato, tuna chanks (maybe I will make an alternative tonight and put fresh salmon instead) carrots and olive oil with lemon sauce. Mmmm Yummyyy!!!! and most of all healthy! Its been 3 weeks now since we are having an absense from eating meat and we have decided to keep it that way until Easter. We are not fasting we've just decided to do a bit of detox and have an absense from meat. OMG! I mubbled a lot here! please forgive me! ...since i havent start my FET cycle yet, well these are kind news I have to share with you girls!...sorry... :roll:

Anton,
I love listening to some good jazz...the fresh salmon salad sounds amazing, I bet dh enjoyed it too! I've gotten where I toss grilled chicken into salads and love to add fresh fruit like (msp) mandarin oranges.

Fruit,
No symptoms doesn't neccessary mean your not pregnant, and you still have another week before beta. I think it's still too early to throw in the towel, you have over another week before beta- right? So try to think positive thoughts and send some good vibes to beans! :D

akdelp- Yay ER is today! Know we are thinking and praying for some golden Easter Eggs!

AFM: No news for me except it feels like I might have an UTI from the IUI, doesn't hurt when I pee so maybe it's only a yeast infection (I know TMI, but shouldn't be common after the procedure?) Afraid to take anything, but trying to drink lots of water!

Fruit,
Try to find something to preoccupy your mind so the waiting doesn't drive into crazytown. Trust me it will make time fly by SO much faster... What are some of your hobbies?

lol Fruit you are too funny! No I wouldn't recommend painting/shopping for sure unless that can be done online hehe...shoe shopping anyone? Last night as I was entertaining my neighbor's little girl we painted and made crafts together, but I had the window wide open! IUI's aren't as invasive as an IVF. Maybe you can find some good movies to watch, we need to start a movie list on here. I mentioned one sometime back called "Someone Like You."
