Sunshine-oh honey I'm sorry. It does sound like between your SIL and your mom it's a bit much to deal with. I think most moms drive their children a little crazy. I know my mom drives me a little crazy everyday and I know for a fact u drive my kids absolutely bonkers daily. But moms do mean well. It does sound like DH is trying to protect you. I know that throughout this journey DH and I are always trying to keep ourselves grounded in reality and protect ourselves from getting hurt. Your are such a wonderful, loving, caring person that I know you will have your baby. This Fall has proven to be filled with many miracles so far and you will also get your miracle. Sending you a big hug.

I thought you would like to know Margi had her babies!

[WeHaveHope]

Riogirl-thank you for letting us know. I am so happy for Margi. This wonderful news gives the rest if us still on this journey such hope. Congrats to Margi!!!

[Sunshine1576]

Thanks We for always being there too, you make everything seem ok and our faith together will bring us a family someday.
Congratulations to Margi, and the birth of her twins, I cannot wait to see some pictures of those little ones as soon as she gets on her feet. God protect those little ones, and keep them strong and healthy.
With Much Love,
Christy

sunshine- IM sorry that you have a hard time with your mom... I understand that sometimes they just dont get it... But I know that they try to do it with love, and if they never experience it they dont know how to act.... Big hugs!! I hope that your weekend goes well!!!

we- pray that everything goes well for you this time around. How exciting to see the two lines on the hpt... so happy for you!!! Beta will come soon enough!! Congrats!

welcome to the new ladies!!! I pray that you all get your bfps and know that you are in good company!!! I know that you all will find the support you need!!!

Sorry so short on personals computer only lets me see so many at a time but I am thinking of each and everyone of you!

AFM- still no af!! I know 7-10 days, do not stress and blah blah blah.... yup all things that I can not do! I have been in tears over the last few days. I see pregnant women everywhere and it just breaks my heart! I just want to get pregnant. I am trying to keep a positive mind but it is just hard. DH tries to cheer me up but its just so hard. anyway... have a great weekend waiting on DH to get home from work!

[WeHaveHope]

Blessed-I know it's difficult but you will also get your miracle. You'll see. Stay positive. I recall having the same issue with our second cycle. I stopped taking BCP and I think it took about 14 days or so. I was so unhappy but eventually AF came. I will continue to pray for you and I will do double the dancing so AF comes soon.

Sky-I know the whole injection thing may seem very scary. As a nurse I can tell you that all of the injections that you will be doing, with the exception of the Hcg trigger are all SQ injections. The needles are all very small and you van literally close your eyes and just stick yourself because they needle is not going to go anywhere but right underneath the skin. You van mess up the injection and for the most part they don't hurt at all. If I remember correctly, the Follistim burns a tiny bit but that's it. It goes away immediately. You'll do great dont worry.

We- thanks for the encouraging words it really does mean alot. Big congrats on ur bfp that line is really darkining up quick, I cant wait to hear ur #'s im sure they will be fantastic.
Im fine with the lupron I ice myself for a min to numb then inject its really not bad.. Ive heard about the follistem burning uh oh but whats bothering me is the hcg trigger shot not so much the pain but I just dont want to mess this up, the doc switched me from pio to endometrin (I think I spelled it right) because I would be giving myself the injections..I would love to hire a nurse to do the hcg but I'm having no luck in that dept. oh well I guess I will take it as it comes.

I just want to say all of you ladies are very strong in a way that other ppl not going thru this wouldnt understand, no matter what is going on in your own lives you all are very kind, encouraging, compassionate women , and I truley believe each and everyone of you will get your miracles baby/ies and be awesome mothers never taking a single day with your child for granted. I see these women walking with their kids and screamin at them and just not watching out for them and it drives me crazy its like (and i may be wrong) that they dont realize that every child is a precious gift.
Anyway really just rambeling on now (SRRY).

Happy Saturday everybody... it's been a few weeks since I posted. Work has been crazy and my weekends are eaten up by family plans, etc. I promise to be better at posting. I seem to have missed ALOT!

Well, AFM-- last night was my last BCP and I am on day 4 of Lupron. Stims starts in 4 days-- EEK! I feel like this cycle has gone SO FAST probably because I have been so busy. I feel like I am not ready for this roller coaster since I haven't had time to mentally prepare.. maybe that's a good thing!? I am not obsessing over every detail, in fact I am worried about forgetting to take a shot or what day I start stims. It could also be that I am not transferring after this retrieval so I am not worried right 'now' about capturing that elusive BFP. I want to do an FET with these embies in late Nov/Dec since I have only ever gotten a BFP on an FET cycle.

Not much else going on with me. I need to catch up on everybody and find out where I last posted!

Happy Fall!!

I love all the BFP's on this board. I usually don't have time to get on and respond but I love checking in and reading all the updates.

DH and I had our first acupuncture treatment yesterday, I was scared at first but then I felt so relaxed that ended up falling asleep and had to be woken up 30 minutes later. Can't wait to go again. After acupuncture I went to my RE for bloodwork and an ultrasound since AF still hasn't arrived. Well instead on just 1 cyst I now have 2 large cyst in my right ovary . So now I'm on desogen (BCP) for 3 weeks . I am alittle worried because I have read that there are lot of side effects with these BCP's. I guess I won't start stimming until November, hopefully.

I always wanted to try acupuncture... I have never been brave enough to do that!! I am sorry to hear that you have 2 cysts. I hope that the bcp help you and that the side effects are not that bad... Take it easy and praying for you!

We- THank you for your kind words and the fact that it took you a while to get af after lupron. I have never done fet or not a fresh cycle. I just worry so much... I need to chill and find something to do... I think I will look at houses, I love to do that, we are selling ours and looking is almost calming for me. Just praying that af comes soon and does not mess the cycle off too much...

[WeHaveHope]

Blessed-I remember being frustrated as well. The more I thought about AF it seemed the longer she stayed away. But it really should not push your dates off by too much. So don't worry. I will continue to do my dance until you tell me it's ok to stop.

Happy Sunday everyone!



So I went to the job interview and it was great! The job is awesome and they told me that I will get a call for the second/final interview end of next week! The boss is out of the country and he will be back next week so by end of next week he will need to decide on whom to hire. I know they liked me, I sure liked them. We will talk about the salary on the second interview. Hope all goes well! Wish me luck girls!

I will do personals tomorrow ...or maybe later.... until then....

It’s a beautiful Sunday morning girls and I can’t wait for the new week to begin! There’s a great Karma on our board and I LOVE it!!
.....and that is the reason I am here with you guys!!!! you believe in my dream and I believe in yours!!!!
Baby dust and sticky vibes to us all!!!

Good Morning everyone!

I woke up with AF this morning! YAY! I think this may even push our transfer up a day or so, because I wasn't expecting her until Tuesday or Wed. Anyway....I am just happy she is here!

Blessed....I have a feeling that AF will come for you today too! Still doing the AF dance for you!

Anton- I hope that you get a call for the second interview and that the salary is what you were hoping for! fingers crossed!

We- this is the first morning I have signed on and not seen a HPT picture??? Where is it? Did you stop since your beta is tomorrow? I doubt it!

AFM-- all of my bw came back normal from the dr about my hair coming out....so hopefully it is just a phase. It is still coming out like crazy, but does seem a little less. I also have a cold/sinus infection...yuck! But I'd rather be sick now then at transfer time!
