Sorry ladies, I didn't post for awhile.
My update:
I did another HPT on Saturday and got a light second line. I got all excited but I was having some dull pain all day. It got me worried especially after my parent's friends (who are both gynos) said it could be sign of miscarriage or ectopic prengancy. Then on Sunday i did another test. It was positive again. Sunday evening I started spotting..... It got me so scared. I thought, it was all over for me. I stayed in bed on Mon, didn't go to work. Today did my bw test. It was positive! The level is kinda low though: 49. I'm still spotting. The doc says it happens but it doesn't make me feel better. I'm retesting on Fri and really hope my #s will go up!
Congratulations, ellie, anyaf, vicky77 on your BFP!
Wishing everybody who got BFN luck with the next try!
Sorry, have to go to bed and rest. I hope my spotting will disapear soon or I'll go crazy...

Kristin- so sorry to hear your news. Take good care of yourself and hope that you and DH can take some time out and feel strong enough to try again soon x

KF'06- Well Done You! Will be praying that your numbers double so that you can enjoy the news. Rest well.

Cinders- 16 fertilised eggs is great. Sore you will get some om that to freeze but hopefully you won't be needing them. When is your ET?

Take care all x

KF 06 HAPPY BFP!!!!!!!!!, I hope the spotting goes away, I guess we have to start the "spotting go away" dance now, it worked with the cysts, so lets hope it works now too

, good luck on Friday with the retesting!!

Kristin, I am so sorry with your news, but definetly do not blame yourself, you did not do anything wrong, that is why the rates of IVF are around 60% and not 100%, statistics suck I know, but that's the way it is, I am happy though that you are taking some time for yourself, it will be very good probably!!. Keep us posted!!

Cinders, 16 embryos!!!!!, wow girl that's a lot!!!!!, way to go!!

I am retesting tomorrow the HCG, so I hope the numbers doubled...wish me luck!!!

Sassynlv---That was a great post. You're right, we get so focused on what we don't have that it's easy to neglect those that we do have.

Thanks for that reminder, I really needed to hear that!!!!!!

I just found out that all 7 of my remaining follies succesfully froze--so that's a big relief. It takes a little pressure off the waiting knowing that there is a "frozen family" as my nurse called it

waiting for me if this one doesn't work!

I think maybe I should be here now???
I had 9 eggs removed today after starting an iui cycle with meds.Due to the amount of follys 13 the doctor changed me to IVF which is all new to me.The hospital rings on thursday to say if we go back to have ET I know there are lots of hurdles yet but we will see.
How long are you sore for after ER.

Holly, welcome to the IVF world

, it is not as tough as people picture it, I had not problems at all during the whole cycle. I didn't feel sore after the ER, very very mild, it went away with Tylenol, and it was only the day of the ER, afterwards I was feeling great, hope same happens to you!!
GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Hi,
I'm not starting IVF untill next year sometime. but i have been trying to get as much information as i can to prepare myself. I'm sorry for butting in but i just wanted to say thankyou for sharing all your ups and downs on here. I have been reading your posts on here for the past few weeks and am so amazed at the strength and courage you all show. I wasn't sure if i would be able to cope with IVF but reading your posts as you each go through it has shown me that it is ok to be scared and nervous and every other emotion that you can possibly feel. Thank you so much for giving me a little courage and alot of hope. I wish you all the best of luck for the future and i pray you will all have your dreams come true.
Thank you again
Lyndsay

Lyndsay,

That was so sweet of you!!! It is an interesting journey full of all kinds of surprises. It's great that you have found these threads to use as support...it helps SO much!

Wishing you luck on your journey...and lots of baby dust.

Lyndsay, thanks a lot for your kind words, your should not be scared of IVF, at least for me it was not scary at all, and the end result was soooooo beautiful that even if there were moments were you were upset you forget about everything later. So I wish you the best of luck for your IVF next year!!!

Well ladies...

The time is almost here!! Tomorrow I go in for my pregnancy test! I have stayed away from the HPT...to scared! Couldn;t handle... I'll let the Dr either make my dreams come true or break my heart.

Will be going in the morning for blood work, not sure what time they will be calling me.

Send LOTS of prayers and baby dust my way

I send lots of ((HUGS)) to everyone!!!
