Good luck tomorrow on your embie transters tomorro Queenie, Dakota and Prawnster.

Wow Ruby you are one brave lady doing your own POI shots. I handle the little ones myself but that POI one is another story just thinking about it upcoming is enough for me not to even think of trying it myself.

Thank you MzTia - I am just hoping the call from the embryologists tomorrow tells me I have some to transfer - Yes I will, Yes I will (sorry a little nervous I think)

Good luck Queenie & Dakota, there will be a huge sale increase in trashy mags because of us!

IMBlessed - You are truly blessed - 3rd time was the charm..I am so happy for you!!!

Prawnster - good luck with your transfer tomorrow too! I'll be thinking of you...

jHarris - I think someone brought this up earlier, but definitely check with your clinic to see if they are doing any clinical studies that you can be a part of...that's what we are doing right now...they paid for our cycle and all the meds...if it weren't for that, we wouldn't be cycling now...i am so thankful for that...

Sorry I have been absent the last few days; I have been overwhelmed with work. But you girls have been busy! This board is exploding with BFPs! Congrats, y'all are going to be someone's mommy!

Hooray for IMBlessed! Given your "blessing," have a hell of a time tonight with DH! :D

SDTrying--Congrats on your "official" u/s. You heard his or her heartbeat! And I am with you on the tail...Can you imagine trying to find tail friendly clothing? Or snipping little holes out of the backs of onesies to accommodate the tail? :D I am sure he or she is PERFECT! I hope you rocked on your boards today---and I am sure you did if the test included sections on covert maneuvers and clandestine operations. Are you sure you want to be a doc? The CIA could use you!

Jharris--I am glad you plan to get back in the ring! You are a fighter and your embies will be too.

Dakota and Queenie--Good luck tomorrow! You will need a full bladder for the procedure. One word of caution...don't have a REALLY full bladder or you will be in agony. They had me lie down for about 20 minutes after and I thought I would burst. They offered me a bed pan and I actually considered it. Happily, some shred of dignity kept me in check.

AdsGirl--Excellent news about your stimming! And if you are like me, you will actually start to LOOK FORWARD to the Lupron and the Follistim. I wish I could say the same about PIO. My bottom looks like it has gone 12 rounds with Tyson.

Rinnie---I miss you, girl! Hope you are well.

IrishHope--I managed to coast out of OHSS by eating salted cashews and drinking Gatorade. Hope you feel better soon!

Rubylee--I enjoyed reading your dog story. Sounds like you are part of a loving pack. Congrats again on your BFP! When do you go in for your ultrasound?

Valerie--I don't know that we have formally met yet...but I really appreciate your kind words. When do you start your next cycle?

Thanks again to everyone. (I am especially grateful to Queenie for putting her fertility idol to work for me!) It seems that Kokopelli (did I get that right?) knows what he is doing because I have doubled, doubled, toiled, no trouble...PIOs burn and syringes bubble! My numbers have been rising at an admirable rate and I go in on Monday for another beta and an u/s. As far as symptoms, I have had mild nausea and heartburn, AF type cramps/pressure and....(well, there is no other way to put this) porn star breasts.

One question: According to an online IVF due date calendar, I am 5 weeks pregnant. When I have my u/s on Monday, what are the chances that I will see a heartbeat? I don't want to freak out if it's unrealistic to expect this.

Have a great night girls!
