Hi everyone!!
SS and Angellica: CONGRATS on your BFP's..I'm so excited for you!!! Relax and take it easy now!! It's so nice to see so many BFP's come on this board...let's help the trend continues!!
Suzhan: It was great meeting you too!! I am sooooo happy that to of your eggs were such awesome!!!! That's wonderful news!!! You deserve it!!! I felt better yesterday, esp. because we pushed for the day 3..you know that you and I were the only transfers yesterday...i think they had four today!! My eggs were great!! They showed us a pic of 5 with grade 1 5 cell quality. And we were lucky to freeze 12 embies for later!!! I have to tell you, I was in so much pain this week that I don't think I could go through that pain with a fresh IVF again. It was brutal. I'm still not fully better. We are really happy for you...let's keep in touch as we are on the same exact schedule!!
Has anyone had really bad gas after ER and ET. I have really bad gas pains/cramps.
Cheeky Monkey: You may want to get a consult with a nother clinic (sometimes they are free) to reveiw protocols, etc. Protocl is everything and if you are not comfortable, trust your gut. Good luck to you!!

OH my goodness i haven't been on for a few days and it has taken me ages to catch up on everyones news. I have had a rotten cold and have not been doing much of anything apart from being paranoid about coughing and sneezing and hurting my baby.
BIG congratulations to all the BFPS Wendy, MBA, ss and Angellica. This site is looking fantastic and i am so proud to be part of it.
Suzhan well done on your great embies.
Cinders i also had pains and gas after ER and ET, this time it only lasted for a few days but my first attempt i had mild ohss and had really bad pains for 1 week and had FET.
KF i haven't seen you post for a few days but i am praying your numbers increased and you are ok.
I HOPE ALL YOU LADIES ACROSS THE WATER ENJOYED YOUR THANKSGIVING DAY.
Wishing you all well

Cinder-Congrats!!! 12 for later, I'm just hoping for a few for later! my ins stops covering IVF in Jan and being that FET in somewhat cheaper, PMA PMA PMA. It's so cool that you were able to meet Suzhan. I had the mapping completed and cramped and bled(TMI sorry) for a few days. My uterus is hard to find, they had to put the speculum in and reposition 4 times, very painful!

Cinders, wowww, 12 frosties, that's amazing!!!!, I am sorry that you had such a bad time though with the pain and all that, maybe it is because they removed too many follicles, I don't know, in my case they removed 11 and I felt perfectly afterwards, do you think it may have something to do???.
Ellie, hope you are feeling better today, and that the cold is gone!!!!. Take care of your little one

Wow - you miss 2 days and the forum goes crazy.
Nicola - I am so sorry you are feeling down, try not to read too much into your sideeffects - it could be just your ovaries - mine cramped up for at least a week after my transfer. Hang in there and sending you lots of sticky thoughts.
Cheeky- I am thinking of you. i hope everything goes well for you over the next few days and those levels get to where they should be.
Cinders - sorry to hear you are in so much pain- it sounds awful but for 12 frosties it sound like it was worth it - those ovaries really had a work out. Well done!
Mia and Sassynlv- how are you both feeling? You have both been so supportive to us all, continuing to post like troopers - I am so impressed with the PMA . Sounds like you are ready to charge back into it all, needles and all. Sending you both loads of hugs.
Angelica - congrats on the offical word - you so deserved some good news- I am thrilled for you. SS - congrats too.
I got my results and am too scared to write it down - ( in case I am dreaming) it was positive (though not sure if it is BFP) 142. I am 10 days post transfer...Cripes now I am terrified, and I dont think it will sink in until I get some more tests under my belt.
To everyone else, especially those on the 2ww - thinking of you.

Sarah: Your numbers sound great!!!! I think you're preg..praying for you they double.
Vicky: I don't knwo why I feel this way...feeling less sore today but still cramping with lots and lots of gas pains. I'm trying to figure out if it could be maybe from the doxycycline? I take my last one tonight, so we'll see. I just hope the cramping doesn't interfere with implantation. My BF was in a lot of pain too....hopefully it subsides very soon.
Nictor: Sorry you feel bad....when do you test?? Try not to be discouraged that you are cramping as I think that is common with all your ovaries have been through. Easier said than done. This is my first IVF and I give you a lot of credit and admiration for being able to do this journey four times. I wish the best of luck to you.
Tx everyone for all your support!

Noodle: Sorry, I missed your post. I was born and raised in NJ almost all of my life and moved to Cali 7 years ago..what part are you from?? It's funny you mention your uterus was hard to get to. During my transfer, my RE said it was really hard to get to my uterus as my cervix seemed closed. Maybe during ER they really prodded to get there?? Are you feeling better??? Did you have bad gas pains too??

Sarah V, congratulations on your BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!, don't worry they will probably double, there are people with lower HGC levels that are now very very pregnant
This forum is really amazing!!!, remember that I was out of progesterone supplies??, well, someone apparently read my post and she has some overage from a prior cycle and she lives near me, so we are going to meet tomorrow and she will give me her supplies, isn't that great??, I don't know how to thank her for her generosity, that was something amazing!!!.
How is everybody doing???

Sarah V - - Congratulations! You're officially pregnant!
Cindy - all the gassiness, cramping, etc is par for the course on the 2ww. Think of it as your body in recovery, not to mention the effect of the lovely pio shots. 12 frosties - that's great!
Vicky - tiredness is a classic early sign of a strong, healthy pregnancy - so think of it as your badge of honor and enjoy some rest when you can! When's your first scan?
Nicola - so sorry to hear your feeling down. Can you do something to take your mind off of all this? Sometimes it gets so overwhelming - it's hard to relax and unwind. Is there something in particular that's bothering you or just the general hormone swings that come with this process? I wish your some peaceful and positive thoughts in the next few days.
I've started in with the crampiness myself, although I know it's too early for implantation. I think the earliest for implantation would be Sunday.....And, I'm a bit bored/stir crazy, which isn't a good sign considering I have to stay horizontal until Sunday!
Take care everyone!
