Wishing and Hoping - Congrats on being PUPO!

Blaqdymun - So happy for you!

Bizzy327- WELCOME! The girls here are great and very supportive. You've found a great support group for your first cycle.

Lee - I hope you're feeling better soon and definitely keep up the PMA. Have you tried calling to find out a status, would that help?

Dallas - Congrats! Sounds like everything is going well and cant wait to hear the fert report.

AFM - I'm officially PUPO! We transferred one Grade A-A blast that was already beginning to hatch yesterday. We have two with the same grades that they froze yesterday and two more that they're waiting to blast today and will decide if they'll freeze them as well. DH took me to lunch afterwards and then we spent the day taking it easy, watching movies and working a little from home. Now we're doing the waiting game. Oh how fun.... :)

IVF #1= 1 beautiful blast transferred on 4/26, 1st Beta on 5/6 = 191 (BFP!), 2nd Beta on 5/8 = 492!

Red_Riding_Hood & indigofire ~ Congratulations on being PUPO!!!! Take it easy and enjoy.

Blaqdymun ~ Congratulations Mamma great beta!!!!!

Lily ~ injections seem worse than they are. I did mine myself, which I think is better. The needle doesn't hurt; it is the meds going in. I found the slower I pushed the meds in the less they sting. Good luck with your class.

Sunshine1576 ~ Wishing you the best with your summer cycle and hope the bank job comes through.

DALLAS ~ Looks like Bunny came through 27 eggs!!! Can't wait to hear the fertilization report.

LeeS ~ sorry to hear your ET was canceled. Try to take care of yourself your embabies will be home soon.

bizzy327 ~ Welcome!!!!

Anton ~ Fingers crossed no one claims your doggy. Would love to see a picture of him?

vicky1707 ~ It is such a surreal feeling. Two week will be here before you know it.

Heidi67 ~ How did the u/s go?

BlissfulCS ~ Thank you for sending doubling vibes. I will find out today. Can't wait!

Moorebaby ~ Only two more days before your beta!!! Have you resisted POAS.

AFM ~ Had my blood drawn this morning. Praying for a doubling beta

We just got the call from the embryologist. None of our remaining embryos were "good enough" to freeze. So we still have 2 that were frozen yesterday and one from a previous cycle. I'm disappointed that all the other little guys didn't make it, but hopefully I'm pregnant now and it won't matter!

Congratulations on being PUPO! Will you POAS? I am very thirsty too, I think it must be the progesterone.

To all the ladies in the horrible 2ww, hang in there! Your going to get your BFP before you know it! Sending you tons of sticky vibes and PMA!!!!!! :wink: :wink: :wink:

Those still waiting on your ER and ET, thinking of you and ya'll are in my thoughts and prayers! :D :D :D

Welcome to all the new ladies!!! This board is AWESOME and so are the ladies :wink:

AFM: Again thank you all for your wonderful words! They helped lots. I had an appt with my RE just to kind of go everything and he sent me off to do some BW to see if there was anything going on that might have caused the 2 m/c. If everything comes back normal then we are off and running again to do our 2nd (and FINAL!!! :roll: ) fresh IVF cycle. Third times the charm right? :wink: I'll keep everyone updated, Love to all!!

Hey Ladies...

Thank you for all of your Congrats & Well Wishes, I really felt the warmth & support of the group during the dreaded 2WW :wink:

Now that the 2WW is over & I now know for sure I'm pregnant. My mind is now on another journey.... :roll:

I had my beta done 11dys after ET & have a # of 150... Is that a normal range or is that high for an 11day test? I now wanna know if there is a possibility of twins? or would I have to wait for my 2nd & 3rd Beta; better yet, a sonogram to really know? I'm asking the experts :lol:

**EDIT**

I was reading a blog and followed a link to this HCG calculator...It gives you an idea if your HCG levels are rising at a good rate or not. you have to have had two betas at least to see a result. Here is the link if anyone is interested: http://www.babymed.com/tools/hcg-calculator
