April/May Cycle Buddies!

[nwquiz]

nicksgam and heather thanks for the response. it just came to mind when i read the post where the lady had many follicles and only 2 or 5 eggs. so i wondered about early ovulation. no i tale all my meds in the evening. this time we are adding menopur when i start ganirelix. so will see how things go. 3 shots ouch pin cushion.

[BlissfulCS]

Michelle and Mom4sure... Lots of prayers and hugs to you. So sorry for the pain you are feeling.

[BlissfulCS]

Easly- woohoooooooooo! Congrats on being the first of MANY BFPs on team orange !!!

AFM- still waiting on AF and starting to have symptoms. Had a mani pedi and now have orange tootsies!

Thanks everyone for being understanding about me not doing too many personals. I'm still reading every word and cheering you all!

[JenMink55]

Wow-- so not updates I wanted to see today when I logged in....

CT_Michele-- My heart goes out to you, I cannot express how sad I am for you. I am hoping that something happens, a miracle and one or two takes. Major hugs to you --

Dallas-- Great news with the Donor! Those numbers sound promising. How old is your donor?

Margi- That sounds so scary what you have but my friend on another site had the same thing and just delivered twin boys on Monday, everything went A-oKay!

Moorebaby-- Dang your an egg making machine!!! You go girl! Good Luck on your ER tomorrow morning! You better start guzzling gaterade right after to prevent OHSS. Those are a lot of eggies!!


NancyB-- Congrats on AF--- sometimes we love that girl, sometimes we hate her LOL... Yeah for FET!!!

Fruit- Don't loose hope honey. I know it's really hard to feel positive when there are no symptoms but everybody is different and you might not just have the typical symptoms! Do you have a back up plan in place? When I am feeling like all hope is lost I think about a back up plan and it puts things into perspective.

Sunshine - OH NO... I thought I had an UTI too but thankfull it went away. Start downing some cranberry juice and drink a ton of water. Hoping you feel better soon! How is the job?

Mom4sure-- I cried when I read your post at work. There are no words right now that can alleviate your pain. You did so much to get to this point and I am just so broken hearted for you. I am glad you are keeping up a PMA, that's going to help you. I have heard great things about DHEA, I have seen a lot of people on this board get pregnant after taking it. Take good care of yourself sweetie, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

easley-- I am SO NOT POAS!!!!!! Don't be a pusher LMFAO Have you taken another test and what's going on, darker line? How about posting a picture for us LOL

kbillsy- Good luck on the ER! Hoping you get some good eggies in this batch. Enjoy Acupuncture too!

Heather- OUTSTANDING news on the 20 fertilized eggs!!!!

LYD10--- Here is some Chicken Noodle Soup to help you feel better.

Cherry-- good fo you! Hope you can stay on the board for a while. Congrats on the BFP!!

AFM-- So I am 2dp5dt and just started cramping a little today. Mostly twinges and shooting pains, hoping this is a good sign. I feel rotten sharing my good news after all the bad news with the board today My Embryologist contacted me this morning and said that one of my 'genetically' healthy boy embryo's didn't arrest after all, he stopped growing after PGD BUT picked up again last night and he was a full blast this morning. SO I DO HAVE A FROSTIE!!!!! 1 back up plan in the freezer, PRAISE GOD! I was so worried and now I can take a deep breath.

I just want to say IVF, IF is such an emotional journey. It's a journey no women should have to face in her lifetime. You are all some of the most strong, dignified and courageous women I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Miracles happen everyday and I pray to God that you will all get your miracles soon. If you have had a bump in the road DONT GIVE UP!!! Keep pushing forward and MAKE those dreams come true. I truly love you all for your courage and dedication. I wish you all the best and we all will get our BFP's!!!

JenMink,
I loved your post with all the blinkies, been trying to figure out how to add blinkies maybe someone can tell me since I went to user control panel and it said you cannot download them off the desktop. Something about a particular website you must go to which only tells me no domain lol I even tried to cut and paste some from previous boards, tried everything... Maybe as long as I have you and Anton, we already have all blinkies to brighten our world! Congrats on the PGD with the twin girls and glad to hear about the FET possibility. I know you must feel blessed to get the call back today on him. Thanks for asking about my new job, Chico's is stress-free, great flexibility with everyday being different but retail is truly what makes me happy b/c I can be so creative. It's base-pay plus comission, definately the most sales-driven store I've ever worked, at the same time you can tell the difference in client care with this environment.The flexibility gives me time for those appointments where I don't feel like the store becomes my life. I used to put my job before everything (that mattered), but when we put things in perspective-- life itself-- is far more important than a 50 hour work week. Sorry I got off on a tangent! Anyway I'm counting down to the BIG DAY, until then know I am here sending out good thoughts with prayers to everyone!

JenMink- Those are definitely good signs! When's your beta? Yay, I knew their little brother was a fighter!

Blissful- A mani/pedi sounds really nice right about now! It's totally understandable about not posting personals...no worries

Heather- Awesome fert report! Praying for good news on Saturday!

mrice- So glad that today's results were better! Glad your b/w didn't show any progesterone...what a relief! Let us know how Saturday's appointment goes.

vicky- Are you on PIO or suppositories? If you are, then AF will not come...the progesterone usually keeps it away. The cramping could be a good sign...your embabies snuggling in for the next 9 months.

mom4sure- That is what we are here for...to support & comfort each other. (((HUGS)))

LYD- I'm doing the BETA is at 0 dance for you, lol! I know you want to get the show on the road. I'm so sorry about the ectopic. I hope you feel better! By the way, I totally hear you about male factor & having way less than 50% fertilize....it's always been the case for me & dh

cherry- CONGRATS!!! Those are great numbers! Does the woman you're referring to go by lycase or secaly as her screen name on here? If so, I remember her...very disturbed! Can't wait to hear Monday's results!

NancyB- It feels good to get a plan, right!? Never had an FET, but yes, it does seem like there are less RE visits. My ER is tomorrow

Michele- My heart is just breaking for you! I'm so sorry about this. It is just awful & so unfair. I know there is nothing anyone can say or do, but please know that we are all thinking of you & praying that you heal & push forward. I know you're hurting...take all the time you need. We'll be here. Love ya!

kbillsy- Congrats on triggering!!! Your numbers sound great! Enjoy your shot-free day tomorrow!

easley- YAY, you got your BFP!!! Keep us posted on your POAS marathon, lol!

Blaqdymun/nicksgam- Good luck on your ET tomorrow!

akdelp- How did your ER go?

AFM- Well, it's 11:10pm & I'm wide awake....DH & I have to be out of the house by 7:45 in the morning. The procedure is scheduled for 9:30. Wish me luck

Over here cheering you on MooreBaby!

[LYD10]

Moorebaby - good luck tomorrow!!!! hoping for lots of eggs and good fertilization the following day. yes, male factor is tough - just never know what you are going to get. but my embryologist told me that it helps to have young eggs, like yours, in case of male factor because young eggs have proteins in them that can repair sperm's DNA. actually all eggs have those proteins but they just work better in young eggs. so good luck!!!!

[nicksgam]

Moorebaby ~ good luck with your ER tomorrow!!!! Hoping you get lots of quality eggs and a good fertilization report. I have my ET tomorrow at 9:50am just after your appt Are you doing isci?

[faithful2011]

mom4sure and CT_Michelle - my heart goes out to you and I am sorry that it didn't work out for you in this cycle. I got so depressed last night when I read your posts. I pray that you get your BFPs in your next cycles. I am so sorry hugs to both of you.

[mom4sure]

Moorebaby Thinking of you. Good luck with the ER, I pray you get lots of golden eggs.

Heather Thanx for the info. I am praying your embies.

Nickgram Good luck with the ET. Think happy sticky thoughts and imagine your embies snuggling inside their mummy’s belly. Take care and spoil yourself.

Easley Congrats on the BFP. Keep us posted

LYD Praying you get the zero beta. I am so sorry for what you’ve been through. I hope you feel better as you try again. Its hard but its what we have to do (((HUGS))

Jen YEAH you have a frostie . Isn’t it great to get good news when you least expect it. I am so happy for you. Now the twins will have a brother. I think those “twinges and shooting pains" are a good sign. I think we have implantation going on in there . And please don’t feel bad sharing your good news. Some BFP’s just take longer. And seeing good things happen to you guys makes me happy and gives me hope. Take Care MOMMIE!!

Faithful Thank you. Its really hard to accept but i’ve made a decision to focus on getting ready for my next cycle mentally, financially and physically and that’s what I am doing. How are you? How are things going with your FET?

I AM ROOTING FOR YOU GUYS. I SEE LOTS OF BFP's HERE!!
