Hey Everyone, I am finally back home and somewhat rested. I have 4 pages to read to catch up. I just wanted to write a quick note.

Congrats Val -
What a great beta number!!:DI am so happy for you.

I went in for more blood work and they said they were looking for it to be at least 400 and it came back as 1305!!! :D:D:D I am so happy it is a good number!! I keep on the PIO and estrogen patches. I go in for u/s on Sept. 22. Man, another 2ww :evil: I am super tired. It didn't help that we were delayed over 2 hours and were sitting in a hot plane just waiting. Then we got to our second flight and it was delayed for another hour. We didn't get home until almost 3 am!! :twisted: Hope to catch up on my rest today.

Now I have to go back and catch up on you all.

Horsegrl~ I am so sorry about your BFN :cry: . It always makes my heart very heavy to know one of us is not getting good news.
I wish you the best with your FET as it seems you are ready to go again. That's wonderful!

Turtles~ WOW girl, that's a really good beta...they are going strong in there! I'm glad you had a good time in Orlando! Welcome back we missed you.

Stefanie~ I do believe that you will have a very good chance at seeing the heartbeat! You will see your beanies for the first time, how exciting!!

Smiles~ Another fantastic beta!! Congrats, for sure they are well anchored in there!!

JJJake~ We all worry at some point, we freak out and act totally insane sometimes as well. But we can all blame it on raging hormones!!
Glad you're feeling better!

I'm getting more tired and have to take a nap everyday. AF type cramping comes on and off all day, I guess baby(ies) are making more room down there!

Have a good night!

Hey there, I am crashing your thread to say

CONGRATULATIONS TO VAL AND TURTLES!!!!!!!! AND TO ALL THE BFPS!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D

I have been reading your thread and following all of your stories, I was on the May/June, June/July thread and am so very glad that so many of you are getting great news.

Val, I just wanted to say that even though I have never posted to you or vice versa, your posts are so warm and caring, you stand out on the message boards as a wonderful person with a huge depth to you, and your beanie/s is/are one lucky bean to have you for a mum.

Congrats again!!

Jude7702~ I am soooo moved and a bit speechless about all the good wishes. Thank you so much for taking the time to write a post!! Your kind words really mean a lot!
I remember you from the July thread! I'm so glad your babies are coming along well. You are now officially in your second trimester!! Congrats! :D
And soon you'll be able to see the gender of the babies, if you want to. I think most of us want to know as we have been waiting for our babies for so long!

Thank you again!!

Renee~ I wish you a lot of good follies as you start your stims real soon! We will be there by your side and cheer you like crazy!

slfleming~ Wishing a very strong beta for tomorrow!

I am going to go to work tomorrow and see how I do with that. I am so concerned about doing too much. And then when I leave after 4 hrs, they are really going to wonder what is going on! I'm not sure I'll be able to keep the news to myself. They are so used to the way I work that they will quickly ask questions.
if I get too tired, I suppose I will just go home and take a nap.

I'll let you know about my second beta asap.

Much love to all!

I was on my way home from the airport tonight and was thinking that others of you transferred around the time I did (8/29) and already had your beta. SO....I POAS when I got home and it is a BFP!!!! Yayayayayayay!!!! My beta is tomorrow....so hopefully it will be a great number!!! I will post tomorrow after I get my results!!!!

It's funny because the last two days I've had funny little burps here and there -- usually I only burp after beer and they are loud and obnoxious 8) . And i kept thinking of Val and her burping....so thanks for sharing it all! It was part of my motivation to POAS....and I've never heard of that as a sign of pregnancy before.
