Dallas: It is nearly impossible to dfferentiate between PIO symptoms and pregnancy symptoms . . . that's why the 2ww sucks! But you have a great PMA, so keep it up =) I think 4dp5dt is still too early . . . wait a few more days for your BFP :D

Blair: Wow! Trips! What a wild ride you're in for!

Anton: Hope Happy feels better soon =)

jmbella: I ate pineapple core starting ET and five days after . . . got a BFP one time and 2 BFN the others . . .

Killsby: also look into the field of 'epigenetics' . . . the thought is that if you use donor eggs, your kid will have three parents: genetic mom, genetic dad, and bio mom (you!) Your body will express genes in a certain why that is different than if the baby had grown in another woman's uterus! fascinating stuff! The cost of donor eggs is $$$$$$$$, but with a 50% success rate, heck, I'd play the lottery with those odds! =)

AFM: b/w came back good yesterday . . . estrogen at 114 . . . still on 450 follistim, 150 menopur, dexy, and omnitrope . . . have a sns tomorrow to see how those follies are growing =)

WOW! so much to update and I dont have much time tonight. I promise to come back and send personalized messages to each of you.


Update on me~ I went to the dr today and I have plenty of eggs. He was VERY happy with my count. Now all we need to do is get them to grow. He didnt expect them to grow as fast this time because he was too scared I would hyperstim.. so good plan. He wants me to come back on Monday and see how I am doing. he seemed more positive to me then last time. He did up my follistim by alot for the next few days so we will see. Everything else stayed the same. So I will just take it easy and enjoy my journey and hold tight :)

The MD said we were in the lucky 1% of people who have identical twins. he said it was my fault and not theirs. All 3 babies looked great and had strong heartbeats. We are obviously still in shock for now and hoping the babies continue to grow and thrive like they seemed to have done so far. I go back in 2 wks on may 18 for US #2. MD did say that 25% of the time one or more of the babies will reabsorb in the first trimester, but he said for now it looks like we should be expecting 3.
Wow, congrats to you & DH :P

Dallas- no worries. It is too early. I got my first positive HPT 6dp5dt.

Texas- Congrats on the great follies!

AFM- still losing my mind. Lines on HPTs are darkening and digital is positive. Unfortunately still bleeding...this morning bright red. I keep getting little clots (sorry TMI). I called the RE, and they said it could all be from the progesterone. I really don't like this bleeding, and I'm really worried that these embies aren't going to stay stuck! Is there anyone on this board that had bright red bleeding and stayed pregnant? DH insists that I stay home from work tomorrow and keep my feet up, so I rented some movies for tomorrow and am going to relax at home for the weekend.

Faithful: I'm so sorry you have to go through this. Take some time to heal and grieve. We all feel this way when we get a BFN. Take care :)
