Summer Board 2011

[WeHaveHope]

Anton-so glad to hear from you. So happy to hear you are doing so well. O am praying hars that those babies stick stick stick!!! That they make themselves comfortable for the next 9 months. I completely understand where your coming from. I too have used a combination of different tactics to try and achieve a BFP. Even before IVF, with the IUI, and the IVF. So many letters!!! I tried rest until my buttocks hurt, no rest, moderate rest, and going right back to normal activity. I can yell you, this time I did a combination. I retard at home the first day, took it relatively easy the next day, then back to normal the following day. I think it's a great idea for you and DH to have a little time to yourselves. The cozy restaurant sounds great. We did this on Saturday and I am so happy we did. I had a great time. You can still manageto go out and not over do it. Have him drop you off at the front door of the restaurant and then he can go park the car. This way you don't so alot of unnecessary walking. Ok, so when will you be joining me at the funny farm? Ate you planning in POAS? I can't waiy to hear about your BFP and how you tell DH by waving the magic stick around while yelling it out. O am still laughing about that one, but I am sure there are many kn this board who are laughing at all my craziness. It's no problem, I am happy to be able to entertain when I can. Beat wishes to you and DH.

Hi Ladies,

well today is my last day at home, tomorrow im going back to my normal life but taking everything easy of course, since in all my previous cycles i tried everything like in my 1st ivf i only did 2 days bedrest.. in my 4th and 5th i almost did 2ww bedrest and the results were always BFN... so it seems it doesnt matter much, if they're gonna stick nothing will stop them...
im feeling back pain from time to time (similar to AF pains) but i know this doesnt mean anything since i felt the same in my last cycle. this time im not trying to analyse every symptom as i always did before, im just waiting for beta day.

Lauren - Lauren lauren Lauren waiting for ur 6 embies news, im sure they are doing great while waiting for their mommy to go and pick them up in few days

wehavehope - only 3 more days till friday it so beautiful to see this huge "+"

Anton - im sure that today our babies are starting to bury in the lining where they belong! i also wish if we can feel it this waiting is so hard , 6 more days for our BFP !!!! and going out to dinner tonight with DH sounds great, im doing it tomorrow since tonight my DH brother is coming for a visit

[Wishingandhoping]

Hi ladies! It sounds like everyone is moving along well!

Anton and Fruit- Those embies are snuggling in as we speak! Only a little bit longer before you see that BFP! I love the image of Anton running in the street with the stick in her hand screaming!

Lauren- I'm sure that your embies are growing along just fine. Congrats on such a great fert report! This is your cycle!

Wehavehope- Those lines keep getting darker! Can't wait to hear your beta on Friday! Congratulations!!!

Ester- I also gave up caffeine, but not until the transfer. I don't drink a whole lot of caffeine anyway, just an occasional soda or tea, so it wasn't too tough. I know this is your time to get that BFP. I have no doubt!

Akdelp- I'm praying for you today. Keep us updated.

Nicksgam- Good to see you back in the saddle again! On your way to a BFP!

LongtimerIVF- Can't wait to hear about your ultrasound!!!

Amanda- Good luck with your ER today! I'm praying for you, and I'll know you'll have some great eggs in there!

Sunshine- I know that neighbor must love you! You will have your own baby to take care of very soon!

Tryn4#2- How are you doing? Keep up your PMA. Some HPTs take a long time to show a positive. Don't lose any hope.

Ninde- Welcome! You've joined a lucky board! Jump in anytime! We're happy to hear from everyone!

Rypell- Your babies are gorgeous! Congrats!

AFM- I took a test this morning, and guess what? BFP!!! I told DH because he knew I was going to test today. He is SO excited. We are trying to stay realistic. Our last BFP ended in miscarriage, but I just know that this one will stick. This (or these) baby(ies) are meant to come home with us! We are over the moon. That line just needs to keep getting darker! My beta is on 8/1, and I know that they won't test before then because I'm already coming in a day early. I'll just have to keep peeing on sticks

[Wishingandhoping]

Prayersnpies- I'm sorry that I left you out! I'm praying for you too! Good luck today!

wishingandhoping - CONGRATS ON UR BFP !!!! that's awesome!!!!! ur 5dp5dt no ????

[Wishingandhoping]

Yep! 5dp5dt! Thanks for the congrats! Your BFP will be here before you know it!

[fruit]

wishingandhoping - well maybe i re-consider POASing to 5dp5dt
CONGRATS again and waiting for the strong beta numbers on 8/1

[nicksgam]

Wishingandhoping ~ Congratulations!!!! BFP YAAAY!!! Post a picture if you can.

[Wishingandhoping]

Fruit- I am a POAS pusher, so I say go for it! I will also say that plenty of women do not get a positive HPT that early, but are still very pregnant. I had 2 hatching blasts, so implantation was probably fairly quick for me. Can't wait to hear about your BFP!!!

Nicksgam- Thank you for the congrats! I tried to take a picture but it's too blurry. Oh well!

[Wishingandhoping]

Sorry. I messed up this post but don't know how to delete it!

[anton]

Wishingandhoping- OMG!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am SUPER excited for you!!! this is wonderful news honey!!! and so soon!!! Boy! you girls make it seem so easy to POAS! i am SO tempted to do so on 5dp5dt but then again too chicken to do so!...I think!! but oh my! the thrill of seeing those 2 lines is really really really tempting!! and again, Congratulations!!!

[Wishingandhoping]

Thank you Anton! I know THIS IS YOUR CYCLE! That little girl is getting very comfortable right now. Keep letting DH pamper you and his daughter! Can't wait to hear about your BFP!

[Lauren]

Hey ladies...

Ok so I'm like really upset right now!

I got the call and the nurse said all 6 divided overnight and they want to set me up for transfer tomorrow? When I asked her why all she said was that the embryologist just tells her what the eggs did and when transfer is! I said well I wanna know more? Is there something ur not telling me? Am I wrong? I asked her to have the embryologist call me! I don't even know what I'm gonna say other than why tomorrow? Isn't it best to wait so we can pick the best ones? I'm so confused..

[moorebaby]

Ok ladies. I know it is absolutely way early but I POAS. I couldn't help it. I have felt so good and so positive about this cycle that I thought I would take a chance. Today I am 5 days post transfer which means that my embryos are actualy 10 days because they were 5 day blasts when frozen. There is actualy the faintest of blue lines on the test. Am I seeing thing? Are my eyes playing tricks on me? I actually wraped it in toilet paper and threw it in the garbage. I have now taken it out of the garbage three times to see if I have just gone off the deep end. But it's there. Super super light but there. What do you think??? Why do I do this to myself?

I was just re-reading your post b/c I wanted to know what day you got a BFP on an HPT, so I can note that on the list, & I noticed that you were actually 4dpt. Your FET was on the 20th & the post above was on the 24th. I'm going to go ahead & say that both your babies stuck! Congrats!!!

[WeHaveHope]

Wishing-I am so happy for you I am on the verge of tears right now. You'll see this time is your time and that baby or babies are here for the long haul. I am estatic for you.
