Wishing all the beta's for this week the best of luck. Keeping my fingers crossed.
JDC - Whine all you want, we can take it. I remember last time you were stimming, it is never an easy task for you. I guess you are just a little slower this time. Hoping your follies take off any day. Sending you tons of follie growing vibes.
Amanda - Like it was said in PP. HPT's can be inaccurate. You might just have a low beta and it isn't registering yet. If you look at Robin's beta, it was only a 44. On some tests that would show a negative. It ain't over till you get that dreaded phone call. Though I know how you feel, I was the same way my last cycle.
KKE - Congrats on ER. I also had some pain in my lower stomach. Take some Tylenol, if that doesn't help I would call your RE.
julesg - Did you buy those ugly HPT's? The hardest part is not making them addictive after you have them in the house. Once they are in the house they are in the house, I feel that they are always calling my name. Then before I know it I have used them all up and have to buy more. Good luck on Wednesday.
babyhope1 - Good luck on ER, hope you get lots of good eggs. How was your pizza? Pizza is my favorite and I feel that I can eat it all the time. Though I limit myself to once a week. Don't worry, I am sure you won't ovulate before ER. It is very uncommon to do that.
prayin4BFP - Yes, this can be a very stressful time and causes a lot of fights in marriages. I caught myself trying to say something hateful to DH to start a fight. Luckily most of the time I catch myself and keep my mouth shut. I understand knitted the blanket can be theraputic but I think I would be like your DH and think it is a bad omen. I have a friend that has been TTC and is currently doing IUI's. She goes around telling everyone that she is going to be pregnant. I think she has told anybody she knows her whole story. Anyway, whenever I hear her tell someone, I think to myself that she is tempting fate by telling everyone and getting her hopes up. Hope you and DH are better today.
not hopeless yet - Insurance approval is the worst thing to deal with. Though we have to count our blessing that we do have insurance that covers IVF. I have decided to change my insurance next year. It covers more of IVF but is also and HMO which means I have to get Primary Physicans referrals and all that stuff. I am not looking forward to it. Plus it will be stupid that I will have to get a referral to something I have been doing for the past year. Good luck and can't wait for you to get the show on the road.
foreverlove - How's it going? You are getting closer, almost time to start stims and get your show on the road. Good Luck.
Robin611 - GL on your beta today. Hope your numbers double nicely.
As for me, I am just quietly taking my lupron. I go back in for another u/s and b/w on Thursday. Don't think this week will be any different. I guess next week will be the time to find out if I get canceled or not. I don't know if RE will let me go longer. I should have AF starting after Thanksgiving so I don't know how that will affect everything. I guess I will eventually find out.
