Well ladies... just did my HCGshot at 11:00pm. Not bad at all, I actually did it myself. I practiced witha syrnge with no needle. I was able to do it myself, with my butt towards a mirror. I figured I would practice as well for my progesterone shots when I need to take them. I also took my 2 Doxycilin Pills with dinner. Tomorrow I get a break from shots...I just take my Doxy in the morning and evening and get ready for Thursday ER. Fingers crossed.

Hi All
The positive results and all the pregnancies on this thread are TRULY amazing. Either there have been sudden huge leaps in success stats!! Or this was a miraculous thread.
A really heartfelt congratulations to everyone - here is to enjoying and treasuring every (err well almost every) moment of your pregnancies! And of course motherhood!! It is uplifting to think of all you guys with your deserved positive results.
Amanda and Jules - so sorry to hear of the BFN - I am sharing the sadness with you. There are not too many moments as awful as the dreaded negative beta result. I prayed hard for some crazy miracle - hoped I might be one of those NON 99.5% accurate peeps and the HTP's were wrong. So was semi still hoping and appropriately totally totally gutted with the big fat official BFN. Have gone through the usual range of pure rage, frustration, sadness, desperation yada yada. Well better just suck it up and move on. Got AF today - so at least she didn't hang around.
Feel very cheated this time around. Because actually thought it might work! So much for intuition. And just an odd place to be, because of I feel in my head I feel like everything SHOULD be tempered by fact I have DD - but I have all the same desperate feelings to be pregnant and the fear that I might not be again - and the stress of going through more IVF makes me want to just scream. (Evidently I am not "moving on" just yet - sorry to keep rambling!
Well sorry for long ramble. I'll keep watching see how you guys go. Thanks for the support on the evil HTP result. Blast that fat lady singing a BFN.
Hugs to all you guys and all your little beanies
All the best to those on the earlier stages of IVF - there is evidently lots of baby dust paving the way for you with all of those results!!

Amanda, Julesg, and Melo, I'm very sorry to hear your news. I know this must be so hard and hope you are all coping with it in your own way and that maybe you can try again one day. Please know you can come here for support. Hugs to you all.
Jandc33, I was a couch potato the day of ET and had the day afterwards off from work, so I pretty much hung around the house. After that I resumed activities as normal. It's hard to keep up with everyone, but is your ER today?
Karen, good to hear you're not feeling as tired. I'm still feeling drained, but don't mind at all. I'm anxious to hear your next beta #'s. Best to you!
LadyJ, best of luck at your ET on the 25th. That's so exciting! I'm sure you're enjoying your break from the shots now.
Rosario, good luck at your appt today. Let us know what happens.
Grateful, glad to hear from you and looks like you have some great beta #'s.
Gina, thinking of you and can't wait for you to confirm the BFP you got on HPT with your beta tomorrow.
Babyhope, congrats on your ER and hope you're feeling okay today. That's a great # that fertilized. I only ended up with 3 eggs and they ICSI'd all of them for obvious reasons. Best wishes at ET tomorrow!

Hi everybody,
I just got bad news from my doctor. As you know, I'm all set to do a frozen embryo transfer tomorrow and we had 7 frozen embryos left, but 3 didn't make it out of the unthawing process and only 1 unthawed successfully.
We still have 2 frozen embryos but there's not enough time to unthaw them for my FET tomorrow.
I need all of your positive energy for this one little embryo that's hopefully still going strong. If it doesn't make it than my transfer tomorrow will be cancelled. I'm supposed to call my doctor this afternoon to see how my one embryo is doing so I'll update you than.
I know that we were lucky to get any frosties at all, but it's just so depressing to think that we had 7 frosties and now we're down to 3.
